Four years had passed since the awakening of the Wood Release in the Senju compound, an event that had fundamentally reshaped the power dynamics of the Hidden Leaf. Under the village's aggressive high-level manipulation, the memory of Uchiha Ren and his revolutionary healing tags had been systematically erased from the public consciousness. To the average citizen, Ren Uchiha was a traitor easily forgotten in the shadow of Nawaki Senju's "Wood Release". Nawaki had spent these years under the constant tutelage of Mito and Tsunade, his Mokuton becoming the village's ultimate symbol of hope and divine right.
However, the Uchiha clan did not forget. For them, every time they hear about Nawaki Senju and Mokuton, it was a reminder of their own sidelined genius. The resentment simmered behind the closed gates of their district, fueled by the belief that Ren's "defection" was a calculated conspiracy to prevent the Uchiha from controlling the village's most strategic medical and military resources. Amidst this tension, the clan sought to consolidate its strength. Three and a half years ago, Fugaku Uchiha had entered a strategic marriage with the daughter of a prominent elder, and now, he stood as a father to a two-year-old son named Itachi. Elsewhere in the village, other seeds of the future were growing; Kakashi Hatake, the son of the White Fang, was now four years old, already showing the precocious talent of his lineage.
PS: Itachi is Born earlier than original.
Deep in a secluded location outside the village, a high-level ritual was underway. This was the day of the great transition: the transfer of the Nine-Tails from aging Mito Uzumaki to the fifteen-year-old Kushina Uzumaki. A powerful barrier had been erected. Within its confines stood the pillars of Konoha's strength: the Third Hokage, the Legendary Sannin—Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya. . Nawaki, now the village's shining champion, stood ready to use his Wood Release should the fox's chakra fluctuate, while a watchful Minato Namikaze kept a hand near his kunai.
PS: Minato has not learned "The Flying Thunder God" yet. And the nine tail transfer is being held later than original.
The ritual reached its most critical juncture when the unthinkable happened. In the dim light of the barrier, the shadow cast by Kushina's sitting form suddenly elongated, stretching across the stone floor with a life of its own. Before the Sannin or the Hokage could react, blade erupted from the girl's shadow, skewering her through the stomach from behind. A collective gasp of horror filled the space as the blade was just as quickly retracted. Kushina's eyes rolled back, and she collapsed into the dust, her life-force flickering as the sealing process was violently interrupted.
From the very shadow that had birthed the blade, a figure rose. It was Satoshi Uchiha his three-tomoe Sharingan spinning with rhythmic intensity.
