But the Military Police Force was headquartered in a remote part of the village, and by its nature prevented Uchiha from holding any position of real influence within Konoha's government. Tobirama created the Konoha Military Police Force for the Uchiha to lead, believing it would be both the best use of their skills and the best way to focus the clan's energies towards serving Konoha. He later returned, challenging Hashirama at what would become the Valley of the End and dying in battle.ĭespite Madara's actions, Hashirama did not hold anything against the Uchiha, and in fact urged his successor as Hokage, Tobirama, to be careful not to offend them. Weary of the fighting, the Uchiha ignored him, prompting him to leave the village. Madara interpreted this as the first step in the Senju's supremacy over the Uchiha and tried to rally his clan to take control of the village. When it came time to select Konoha's First Hokage, Konoha's leader, the villagers selected Hashirama. Other clans settled in Konoha to share their peace and Konoha's model was adopted across the shinobi world, ending the turmoil of the era. They unified with Senju and made a pact with the Land of Fire to create a hidden village within its borders, what would become Konohagakure. When Hashirama agreed to these terms, Madara was moved to accept, withdrawing his request for Hashirama's death. He was defeated, but even then refused Hashirama's offer of peace, insisting that Hashirama kill himself first. Using Izuna's eyes to acquire 'eternal' Mangekyō, Madara challenged the Senju for supremacy one final time. Despite growing interest in peace amongst the Uchiha, Madara was unwilling to agree to peace after Izuna was killed by Hashirama's brother, Tobirama. Hashirama, by then leader of the Senju, tried to use their positions to broker peace between them and finally achieve their childhood dreams. With its increased power he took control of the Uchiha. Driven by his desire to defeat Hashirama and through competition with his younger brother, Izuna, Madara became the first Uchiha to awaken his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Madara and Hashirama continued to face each other in battle over the coming years. Unable to do anything about the world at their age, Madara turned away from their dreams. But centuries of conflict began to wear on members of the clans Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju met as children and became friends, bonding over their disapproval of the combat and death that they and their younger brothers were constantly subjected to and dreaming of a time when children wouldn't need to fight. The constant warfare between their clans only fuelled their hatred, with all Uchiha owing the death of a loved one to a Senju and vice versa. When one of the fledgling countries of the era would hire the Uchiha to fight in their wars, the opposing side would hire the Senju. The Uchiha during the Warring States Period.īy the time of the Warring States Period, the Uchiha and Senju had emerged as the strongest shinobi clans in the world. The Uchiha and Senju, descendants of Indra and Asura respectively, continued their battle through the centuries, though none still remembered this reason for their conflict. Indra, driven by his Curse of Hatred, fought Asura to claim what he believed was his birthright. When the Sage of Six Paths was dying, he selected Asura as his successor, believing Asura's desire for peace through love was better than Indra's peace through power. The Uchiha have been fighting the Senju clan for centuries, a rivalry that traces back to the days of Indra and his younger brother, Asura. It is due to the Sharingan that the Uchiha have received much of their fame and notoriety. This loss, whether actually experienced or merely threatened, awakens an Uchiha's Sharingan. As part of the so-called ' Curse of Hatred' first displayed by Indra, Uchiha are subject to powerful emotions: these emotions typically start as love for a friend or family member that then become overpowering hatred when the object of their love is lost. Through Indra, the Uchiha inherited Hagoromo's 'eyes', granting them powerful spiritual energy and chakra. The Uchiha are descendants of Indra Ōtsutsuki, the elder son of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki. Few Uchiha now survive into the present day. After helping found Konoha decades ago, the Uchiha grew increasingly isolated from the village's affairs, culminating in most of their deaths during the Uchiha Clan Downfall. The Uchiha Clan ( うちは一族, Uchiha Ichizoku) is one of the four noble clans of Konohagakure, reputed to be the village's strongest because of their Sharingan and natural battle prowess.
