A ninja trapped between acquiring extraordinary combat skills and fighting the demon that lives inside him. Naruto Uzumaki is an undefeatable warrior who takes pride in garnering attention and saving his village. Coming from a history of sacrifice and profound agony, Naruto knows how difficult and horrendous life could be. As an orphan, he has seen the dark side of life more often than not.
If Naruto had been born Uchiha, the darkness he faced would have been nothing. Or maybe his life would have been a bit easier. He wouldn’t have had to live a life of struggle and would have been the village ruler, who looked down on him. Or would this royalty make him an even bigger target?
What If Naruto Was Actually An Uchiha?
The Uchiha clan is one of the founding fathers of the Hidden Leaf Village, alongside the Senju clan. If Naruto was an Uchiha, a descendant of Madara Uchiha, he wouldn’t have had to bear the curse of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox spirit. Ever since Naruto was born, he has had to live with this demon spirit controlling him. Had he been an Uchiha, he wouldn’t have had to be torn between a carnal, monstrous urge and the desire to do good.
If Naruto were an Uchiha, he would have had to bear other dire consequences for being the descendant of the infamous Madara Uchiha. Madara was the reason the entire village was on the verge of being dominated by the Uchiha. If Hashirama hadn’t stood against him, Uchiha would have controlled the village, and Naruto would have been the ruler of the village. And he would have had to endure more struggles due to the monstrosity of Madara.
Furthermore, Naruto would not have been the adorable and entertaining ninja he is. Rather, Naruto would have been an evil-minded fighter. And that’s a possibility neither of us wants to consider.

Who Is Naruto?
Born to two powerful ninjas, Naruto is a lighthearted boy on his journey to acquire control over his demonic urges. Because of his mother’s chakra, Naruto became the carrier of a nine-tailed demon fox spirit. When the ninja world was on the verge of collapsing, Naruto’s parents sacrificed themselves and caged this demon spirit inside their little infant.
Because of this demon inside him, Naruto has to bear the frowning stares of the village. The entire village treats him like a burden. And though Naruto receives a monthly package from the village, money is not only required for a kid. This demon spirit not only drives Naruto towards atrocious hankerings, but he also has to battle loneliness as well. Naruto begins to pull pranks and draw attention to himself as a result of his longing.
He later gets accepted into a ninja training academy, and his quest to prove himself begins. This brash kid is far more profound than what the obnoxious people of Hidden Leaf Village think. And slowly but surely, Naruto proves himself to the entire village.

Who Is Madara Uchiha?
Madara, the Hidden Leaf village’s founding father, is a dual-faced ninja. At one moment, he dreams of establishing a peaceful village where no kid has to endure the outcome of a battle or a war. In the next split second, Madara wants to become the leader of that village and control the villagers.
Coming from a war background, Madara has endured the consequences of being born a fighter. He is a genius ninja who has fought and defeated various powerful warriors at a very tender age. He then embarks on a journey to find peace when he meets Hashirama, who yearns for peace like him.
A friendship between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha develops into a decades-long rivalry. Both of them come from families that stand against each other, and despite that, they successfully establish their dream village. When these ninjas establish Hidden Leaf, their rivalry intensifies because of their conflicting mindsets. While Hashirama wanted to join this village with others and have a democratic government, Madari wanted to rule the village himself. And the peaceful village they were yearning for ends up being yet another battlefield.
If Naruto had been an Uchiha, he would have had to endure battles worse than the ones that come with the territory of being an Uzumaki. Our lighthearted kid would have been dead because of this rivalry, and he would have never succeeded in riding into the village of the demonic spirit.
