Lin Yue, a modern office worker and longtime Hokage fan, dies suddenly after working through the night on a project. When he wakes up, he discovers he has become Uchiha Fugaku in Konoha’s Year 47, with only three years left until the Nine-Tails’ attack. The Uchiha are growing increasingly estranged from the Konoha High Command due to rumors of a coup. His eldest son, Itachi, has just awakened his Sharingan, and his younger son, Sasuke, has yet to be born. In a body plagued by the aftereffects of overwork, Lin Yue (Uchiha Fugaku) adapts to his role as clan head while using his foreknowledge of the story to quietly pave the way for the Uchiha and himself.
