Background / History

Zhengye's parents were dead before his arrival in the Uchiha Clan. He was transmigrated into his body two months before Shisui's attempted suicide and initially remained politically neutral. After being injured, he joined the clan's radical faction, repeatedly warned Fugaku that his policies would doom the Uchiha, and lost his clan duties as a result. 1

He received the Fate Turning Reincarnation system, which rewards him for changing fates, gaining others' recognition, recruiting followers, and altering historical events. Its prize pool includes attributes, ninjutsu, bloodline experiences, ninja tools, and development resources. 1

Zhengye prevented Shisui's suicide with Inabi and Tekka, then used a future vision to show Shisui, Itachi, Inabi, and Tekka the Uchiha massacre. The four accepted his leadership after seeing the consequences of inaction. 1 5

Following his intervention in the Land of Water, Zhengye brought Haku, Kimimaro, Anko, and surviving noncombatant Kaguya clansmen to the Land of Fire. He entrusted the Kaguya civilians to the Uchiha Clan, while personally incorporating gifted children into the protected household surrounding his residence. 119 122 131

He later rescued Karin from Kusagakure and enrolled her alongside Naruto, Gaara, Haku, and Kimimaro at Konoha Ninja Academy. 124 130

Appearance

Zhengye is a young Uchiha who normally wears clan attire and can activate three-tomoe Sharingan before evolving them into Mangekyō Sharingan. 87 112

• Possesses a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan. 6 74
• His Susanoo is gray, a feature recognized through shinobi-world intelligence. 110
• Carries a sword and standard ninja equipment in combat. 6 116
• Uses a wearable Lightning Release: Flight Device, consisting of a metal frame, wing-like arm fittings, and electrically powered jet vents. 119

Personality

Zhengye is calculating, pragmatic, and willing to use intimidation, manipulation, or violence to secure the Uchiha Clan's survival. He believes political arguments alone are ineffective and teaches the clan's Mangekyō users to act offensively rather than seek approval from Konoha's leadership. 22 54

He deliberately keeps emotion separate from decision-making. After Konoha's elders exclude the Uchiha from a mission, he remains composed, feeds his companions, and focuses on long-term advantages instead of reacting in anger. 54

Despite his ruthless methods, Zhengye consistently intervenes for isolated jinchūriki and vulnerable children. He protects Naruto from abuse, works to improve his relationship with Kurama, rescues Gaara from Sunagakure, and later seeks to save further gifted children. 22 25 87 99 107

His protection of children extends beyond political or system-related benefits. He gives Haku and Kimimaro their first experience of unrestricted flight, establishes a shared home for the children under his care, and brings Karin away from Kusagakure's mistreatment. 119 124 131
