Background and History
The Uchiha are a Konoha shinobi clan distinguished by the Sharingan and a red-and-white fan crest. Their relationship with village leadership is uneasy: Sarutobi Hiruzen monitors promising clan members, while Shimura Danzō treats the clan as a potential threat 1 2 11.
Clan leader Uchiha Fugaku tries to improve that relationship by arranging for the young Uchiha Narong to study under Orochimaru. He presents the request as both an opportunity for Narong and a gesture of trust toward the Hokage’s faction 13 14.
During the Nine-Tails’ attack, Uchiha members fight in Konoha’s defense and suffer casualties. Nevertheless, the resemblance between the Nine-Tails’ eyes and the Sharingan, along with reports of a masked attacker with ocular powers, brings the clan under increased suspicion and surveillance. Fugaku’s effort to restore Obito’s sight after the attacker steals his eyes also makes Obito’s fate a matter of clan concern 75 76 78.
Narong’s later rise outside Konoha divides opinion within the clan. Younger members celebrate his power, while Fugaku warns that it could intensify scrutiny of every Uchiha. During Narong’s campaign to unify the shinobi world, Fugaku agrees on the clan’s behalf to join his alliance 121 144.
Sharingan
- The Sharingan is the Uchiha clan’s ocular bloodline ability. Its documented forms include one-, two-, and three-tomoe eyes and the Mangekyō Sharingan 1 3 18 22.
- It can sharpen perception of movement and chakra flow, aid in copying techniques, and support genjutsu. These uses are demonstrated by individual Uchiha rather than shared equally by all clan members 4 18 33.
- Its power makes Uchiha eyes valuable targets: Narong steals Obito’s Mangekyō Sharingan, and Fugaku subsequently arranges a transplant of three-tomoe eyes to restore Obito’s sight 73 74 75.
