Chapter 4: Uchiha

Uchiha Clan Compound

Inside the Uchiha clan compound was a group of individuals from the different allies that the Uchiha clan had remaining.

Only Tajima Uchiha, Oden, Kaya, Tylong Oozan (head of the Oozan Clan), and Gaizo Hayate (head of the Hayate clan) remained at the table, while multiple seats were empty.

"Damn those Senju" stated the very angry Tajima "Do they really think we wouldn't notice that they were taking out most of our smaller allies"

The others simply looked lost as if they were wondering if such a thing would happen to them.

Kaya finally broke the long silence by stating "They most likely don't want for us to ally too strongly as they wouldn't be able to deal with so many clans without high losses, it's also probable that this is a second plan since the other clans in the Land of Fire most likely wanted to remain neutral after they asked them." she hypothesized.

Kaya was allowed to attend the meeting not only thanks to her talents as a medical ninja, but also due to her sharp intellect which saved the Hagoromo clan on multiple occasions.

Oden, who in the shinobi world was known as the "Mad Hound" due to his high level of strength and taijutsu talent, simply remained silent as he allowed his wife to analyze the situation.

"I say we launch a massive counterattack and attempt to destroy them!!!" Stated the Oozan clan head.

Almost Immediately the Hayate head disagreed "We can't even *cough* *cough* be sure to *cough* *cough* take them down." stated the coughing man.

"You look down on Butsuma too much if you think we can annihilate his clan that easily." stated the Uchiha head coldly.

"Then if you are too cowardly to attack them then my clan will" snorted Tylong.

"If you truly believe you will succeed then we wish you the best" stated Oden as he knows that even if they all united and attempted wiping out the Senju, one of two most powerful clans in the Land of Fire, they would fail. Not to mention the aid the Uzumaki would give them. Only if most of the clans in the Land of Fire allied would that even be possible, and even then they would suffer heavy losses. Let alone the Oozan who aren't known for anything but a slightly higher affinity for earth release.

Tylong then swiftly left leaving only the 4 of them as the remaining individuals in this alliance.

Meanwhile Tajima was wondering if the Uchiha clan would lose all of its allies today, with most that are dead and one of the remaining few just left.

Oden could guess what Tajima was thinking and swiftly stated "The Hagoromo clan and the Uchiha Clan have been allies for centuries, so don't expect us to leave so suddenly."

With the Hayate head immediately agreeing causing Tajima to make an expression you don't usually see from an Uchiha, with that being a smile.

He immediately said "That's great to know that my good friends haven't decided to leave yet." He said with a clear smile on his face.

"Yes but we must prepare as the Senju will only increase their efforts at trying to take us all down." stated Oden.

But even still Tajima didn't lose his smile as he said "Of course, we shall be prepaired for them."

Meanwhile in the Senju Clan

Butsuma was speaking to a Uzumaki elder who had come to visit when a shinobi came into the room swiftly and quietly.

Butsuma was cleary busy stated coldly "Speak"

The shinobi wasn't fazed as he knew his clan leader was strict and immediately told him "The Oozan clan has left the alliance with the Uchiha and seems to be preparing to battle against us."

This caught him off guard but he then told the shinobi "Rally all the clansmen, we will wipe out that clan tonight."

And with that the Oozan Clan was erased from annals of history later that night, unknown to our protagonist as he was sound asleep in bed.

Even when his parents came home and opened his door to check on him he didn't wake and as they saw he was tired they closed the door back with a smile and went to their bedroom to do the same.
