Chapter 13: Chapter: 13 The Three Heroes of Uchiha

The news of an attack on the Uchiha clan's territory spread quickly across the land.
Upon hearing the news, Tajima rushed back at full speed, risking his life to ensure he reached the clan that very night.
After being briefed on what had occurred, Tajima immediately headed to the medical facility without a moment's hesitation.
Inside the room, Kyosuke lay unconscious, surrounded by five skilled medical ninjas discussing possible treatment plans.
Tajima issued a direct command after a brief inquiry: "Do whatever it takes to save him. You have full access to the clan's medicine reserves."
"If you fail to heal him or restore him to his original condition, find yourselves a rope and end it."
Casting one deep glance at the bandaged Kyosuke, who resembled a mummy, Tajima turned and left. He had something else to verify.
In the adjacent room, Tajima found his two sons talking.
Ignoring any inquiries about their health, his first words were: "Both of you awakened your Sharingan?"
The brothers exchanged a glance before simultaneously channeling chakra to activate the newly acquired Sharingan.
The next moment— "Hahaha!" Tajima's laughter reverberated throughout the entire medical facility.
Uchiha Madara had awakened his Sharingan at age ten, but Izuna was even more extraordinary—he had just turned seven.
What did this mean?
Izuna had tied the record held by Kyosuke.
Tajima, the proud father of two extraordinary children, felt unstoppable.
He thought of Senju Butsuma, who constantly praised his sons to anyone who would listen.
In the future, on the battlefield, Tajima would prove who the superior father was.
"The bloodline of Uchiha Tajima surpasses all others," he declared.
Watching their father laugh hysterically, Madara sighed and gave Izuna a look.
"Stop him before he embarrasses himself further."
Understanding the silent message, Izuna cautiously interrupted.
"Uh, Father… about that… it seems Kyosuke has already awakened the two-tomoe Sharingan."
The laughter ceased instantly.

Kyosuke finally regained consciousness.
"Ugh, a strange ceiling…" he murmured.
The heavy scent of medicinal herbs in the room made him sneeze lightly, which triggered an indescribable wave of pain.
"Oh, come on! Seriously?" he muttered bitterly, even breathing as carefully as possible.
The sensation was akin to sitting on a toilet for two hours and then standing up all at once—a pain only those who've experienced it could truly understand.
Hearing his muttered complaints, a group of medical ninjas soon entered the room.
"Don't worry. Your recovery is progressing well," said an elderly ninja with graying hair, smiling kindly.
"Rest well, young hero."
In this battle, Kyosuke had undoubtedly earned the most merit. No one could diminish his contribution.
After exchanging a few words about recovery, the medics left.
Left with nothing to do, Kyosuke decided to open his system panel to review the spoils of his recent battle.
[System Notification: Defeated Nara clan Jōnin. Earned 3600 points.]
Defeating an enemy had earned him a substantial reward. His system points, which had been depleted by upgrading his jutsu, had now returned to 4000 points.
In essence, he had "freely" upgraded his Body Flicker Technique to Level 2.
However, speed alone wasn't enough to dodge a Jōnin's deathblow.
What had saved his life was the evolution of his Sharingan at the most critical moment.
In just one year, he had advanced from initial awakening to the two-tomoe stage. By Uchiha standards, he was already a peerless genius.
But compared to future generations, this achievement seemed modest.
In the original storyline, Sasuke unlocked the Sharingan during the Land of Waves mission.
After returning to Konoha, he participated in the Chūnin Exams. During the Forest of Death, his Sharingan evolved to the two-tomoe state when facing Orochimaru.
The gap between these events was only a few days.
Soon after, during the Sound Village's invasion and Sasuke's subsequent defection, he reached the three-tomoe stage at the Valley of the End.
In just six months, Sasuke had accomplished an unprecedented triple evolution.
If such feats occurred in the current era, that would terrify the entire Uchiha clan.
"Indra's chakra really is something else," Kyosuke mused, thinking about his apparent connection to Indra.
Naturally, this led him to recall another figure: Black Zetsu.
Kyosuke was certain that Black Zetsu had already started monitoring him.
Awakening the Sharingan at seven years old made him a prime candidate for Indra's reincarnation.
If Kyosuke were unaware of the broader story, he too might believe the same.
However, with Madara's Sharingan now awakened, his Ōtsutsuki genes would soon begin to activate.
Even Black Zetsu would realize he had targeted the wrong person.
Feeling free of Black Zetsu's surveillance, Kyosuke felt relieved and began planning his next steps.
It was only a matter of time before Tajima, upon learning of his two-tomoe Sharingan, would grow wary and send him far away.
Although it wouldn't be overt persecution, exile would effectively distance him from the clan's core.
While some ambitious individuals might resent such a fate, Kyosuke welcomed it.
He preferred to stay as far from the main battlefield as possible.
The southern tri-clan alliance was strong, particularly the Ino-Shika-Chō formation, but they were no match for even half of Senju Butsuma's forces.
Kyosuke intended to wait until he reached Jōnin-level strength before engaging directly.
Until then, the southern region would serve as his training ground.

Elsewhere, much of the ninja world was buzzing about the Uchiha.
As a renowned clan in the Warring States Period, the Uchiha always attracted attention.
The saying goes, "Your greatest observer is always your enemy."
The awakening of three prodigious talents within the Uchiha clan had many grasping the implications.
Under mysterious influences, the title "Three Uchiha Heroes" began spreading far and wide.
As their fame grew, so did the bounties on their heads in underground circles.
Countless bounty hunters were eager to target these young geniuses.
Behind the scenes, certain forces clearly hoped to eliminate the Uchiha's promising next generation.
At the same time, this gave Tajima the perfect excuse to act.
---
Half a month later, after recovering from his severe injuries, Kyosuke received his next assignment.
He was ordered to join the southern forces as a unit leader, responsible for commanding a team of up to 30 ninjas.
While it wasn't a meteoric rise, it was a genuine position of authority.
With careful management, Kyosuke could build a loyal faction of his own—provided there were those willing to serve under an eight-year-old commander.
