Power Progression

Background and History

Academy and Team 7

Sasuke survived the Uchiha Clan massacre and grew up determined to avenge his family by killing his older brother, Itachi. At the Ninja Academy, his talent drew his classmates’ envy, but Shinki’s rapid progress gave him a rival he was determined to surpass 4 10 63.

Iruka assigned Sasuke, Shinki and Naruto Uzumaki to Team 7 under Kakashi Hatake. After the Land of Waves mission, Sasuke felt ashamed of his limited contribution to the bridge battle and chose training over Sakura’s invitation to eat 23 24 43.

Orochimaru and defection

During the Forest of Death exam, Team 7 encountered Orochimaru. Sasuke received the Cursed Seal of Heaven, and Shinki suppressed it with a sealing technique, watching over him until he passed the critical period 56 64 66.

Sasuke’s desire for revenge deepened after he learned Itachi had visited Konoha. The Sound Four exploited his frustration, offering him power through Orochimaru. Sasuke injured Naruto, rejected Shinki’s attempt to bring him back and continued toward Otogakure 103 122 123 125 127.

After three years with Orochimaru, Sasuke learned he was intended as a substitute vessel because Orochimaru could not obtain Shinki. He attacked and defeated Orochimaru, then recruited a team to hunt Itachi; Naruto chose to travel with him 161 190 191 192 195.

Itachi and the Akatsuki

Sasuke confronted Itachi at the Uchiha base. During their battle, Orochimaru emerged from Sasuke’s Cursed Seal, but Shinki restrained him and Itachi sealed him. Itachi touched Sasuke’s forehead, apologized and died; Sasuke then awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan 202 203.

Shinki told Sasuke that Itachi had carried out the massacre on Danzo’s orders and had tried to protect him. Sasuke later joined the Akatsuki for power and revenge against Konoha, but accepted Shinki’s proposal to work together instead 204 224. Shinki subsequently sent him to the Land of Lightning to protect the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails, although Kumogakure suspected him of involvement in Killer B’s disappearance 254.

Fourth Shinobi World War and later missions

Shinki freed Sasuke from a Genjutsu at an Akatsuki base and supplied him with Chakra. Sasuke and Naruto combined their powers against Obito, and Sasuke wounded him using Shinki’s Futsunomitama. Later, the Sage of Six Paths identified Sasuke as the reincarnation of Indra’s Chakra and gave him Yin Power 332 333 334 342 343 345.

After the war, Sasuke returned to Konoha with the Thunder Train deal secured. He investigated Uchiha Shin with Shinki, examined disappearances at a border mine and helped uncover a Jashin Cult sacrifice scheme 387 400 420. Shinki later officiated Naruto and Sasuke’s wedding 484.

Appearance

Sasuke is regarded as handsome and is recognizable for his Sharingan and, later, the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan in his left eye 145 345 371.

• Cursed Seal: Located on his shoulder; its activation spreads dark marks across his body 64 122 123.
• Cursed Seal wings: His transformed body can develop hand-shaped wings 127.
• Yin Power mark: A black moon mark appears on his left hand after he receives the Sage of Six Paths’ power 345.
• Temporary hair loss: Forcing Takemikazuchi open with Shinki’s Chakra overloaded him and cost him his hair 334.

Personality

Sasuke is quiet, aloof and intensely proud. He trains relentlessly when confronted with stronger opponents, though his rivalry with Shinki repeatedly frustrates him. He is also capable of swallowing his pride to seek help, as he did when Naruto advanced further in Chakra-balancing practice 10 24 34 73.

His desire to avenge the Uchiha initially outweighs his attachment to Konoha. Even so, he hesitates when urged to sever his friendship with Naruto, and his reunion with Shinki makes his resolve to abandon his bonds difficult to maintain 123 161. Later, he remains fond of making impressive entrances and deliberately uses Susanoo in public to attract attention 386 400.
