Appearance

Uchiha Ci initially appears as a young, short-statured Uchiha shinobi. He outfits himself for missions in a high-collared black robe bearing the Uchiha crest, with standard field armor and ninja-tool storage. 8 452

  • Scarlet Sharingan that evolves through several abnormal forms, including snake-like pupils, Mangekyō patterns, and a Sharingan–Ketsuryūgan fusion. 150 271 379
  • Wears a forehead protector, gloves, knee pads, ankle straps, a shuriken holster, scroll-storage bag, and ninja-tool pouch on missions. 8
  • Can manifest flame-like Susanoo constructs ranging from a ribcage to an enormous four-armed humanoid. 272 486

Personality

Ci begins as a cautious and survival-minded shinobi who immediately questions the claimed safety of his Land of Hot Water mission. His fear does not prevent him from acting when others are endangered; he repeatedly risks his life to protect Konoha comrades, his clan, and civilians. 5 133 185 565

He is sarcastic, confrontational, and often distrustful of people trying to direct his future. He rejects Orochimaru's attempt to make him a successor, resists the Uchiha Clan's efforts to turn him into a political instrument, and ultimately gives Fugaku the clan-patriarch position rather than remain bound to it. 118 448 458

Despite his stated desire to die and his willingness to use self-destructive techniques, Ci pursues a personal vision of justice and a new path for the ninja world. He can show mercy to former enemies and teachers, notably sparing Orochimaru because of their teacher-student bond. 111 426 427

Abilities & Skills

Sharingan and dōjutsu

Ci's Sharingan develops far beyond its standard Three-Tomoe functions. His eyes are altered through Curse Mark chakra, Mangekyō activation, Ketsuryūgan fusion, and later Eternal Mangekyō evolution. 150 271 379 543

  • Uses Sharingan perception to control shuriken, kunai, senbon, and a thread-linked blade in coordinated attacks. 60
  • Breaks enemy genjutsu and casts Genjutsu: Demonic Binding Technique while using Snake-Eye Sharingan. 150
  • Uses Sage Art: Sharingan: White Shock Eye to defeat genjutsu users and later to break Madara's illusion. 176 490
  • Uses Mangekyō Sharingan: Mirror Heaven and Earth Turn to counter Rinnegan genjutsu. 490
  • Amenotachikara can reverse a disadvantage from within roughly thirty minutes before activation; it restores his gouged-out Sharingan, but also forces the implanted Ketsuryūgan into his sockets. 271
  • His Ketsuryūgan fusion becomes a dōjutsu Kekkei Tōta and produces the Incomplete Sage of Six Paths Body. 272
  • Spiritual Might is his single-eye Mangekyō technique; when empowered with natural energy, it becomes a Kekkei Tōta-level ability. 379
  • Spiritual Might carries a severe cost: a single use can cause permanent blindness. 470

Susanoo

Ci awakens Susanoo through his fused dōjutsu rather than a conventional Mangekyō Sharingan. Its early forms impose extreme chakra drain and physical pain. 272 301

  • Initially manifests a flaming ribcage that protects him from heavy attacks. 272
  • Later deploys skeletal and half-body forms in repeated combat, though each use consumes enormous chakra reserves. 301
  • Combines Susanoo with Kurama Chakra Mode, Sage Mode, Lightning Release: Chakra Mode, and Fire Release-based immortality in his Heavenly Man's Tribulation form. 369
  • Summons a 120-meter four-armed Susanoo wielding Eight Million Gods' Pressure, Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, the Totsuka Blade, and a Super Kirin Sword. 486
  • Creates a Susanoo God powerful enough to overwhelm Madara and extract his Tailed Beasts and Truth-Seeking Orbs. 569

Sage Arts and transformations

Ci combines natural energy, Tailed Beast chakra, cursed seals, and physical modification to achieve forms beyond ordinary shinobi limits. 192 312 424

  • Uses the Curse Mark of Heaven, Heart Fire, Zero-Tails release, Artificial Tailed Beast Cloak, and Flesh Transformation in a self-destructive escalation sequence. 192
  • His Human Sage Art grants extreme physical strength, hypersonic movement, enhanced coordination, and amplified senses. 312
  • Learned Sage Art: Transmitting Remote Shadow from the White Snake Sage. 230
  • Performs Sage Art: Genjutsu: Sunlit Mirror, initiating a large-scale genjutsu after producing devastating chakra explosions. 349
  • His Sage Mode: Eternal Body accelerates blood circulation and develops his body beyond the strength of a Fourth Phase Susanoo. 424

Combat intuition and sensory abilities

Ci's combat talent allows him to process complex battlefield information and adapt techniques rapidly. 48 261

  • Combat Intuition improves bodily control and later develops into a level where he believes he could defeat ten of his former selves. 48 261
  • Precognition lets him anticipate opponents' movements through the copied foundations of Uchiha swordsmanship. 261
  • Mind's Eye of the Kagura grants detailed perception over a 50-kilometer radius, including targets' positions, movements, numbers, traits, speed, and technique forms. 469
  • Uses Mind's Eye to perceive Madara's Limbo attacks and to revive through Obito's Curse Mark of Heaven. 485 555

Swordsmanship and ninja-tool manipulation

Ci is a highly trained Uchiha swordsman who combines blades, elemental chakra, genjutsu, and projectile control. 60 233

  • Pulls a long blade back with silk thread to bypass human shields and impale opponents. 60
  • Manipulates barrages of shuriken, kunai, and senbon with Sharingan control. 60

  • Can apply lightning chakra to ninja tools, using high-frequency vibration to improve their sharpness and piercing power. 227

Sealing and forbidden techniques

Ci learns and applies several high-risk sealing techniques and forbidden jutsu. 174 185

  • Creates the Super · Deathmatch Barrier to isolate enemies from allied Konoha forces. 133
  • Learns the prerequisites for the Three-Way Seal, including the Shadow Clone Technique. 233
  • Studies Izanagi, which can convert unfavorable outcomes into unreal events, but normally requires at least a Three-Tomoe Sharingan and permanently blinds one eye after use. 174
  • Uses Ura Shishō Fūinjutsu and other self-sacrificial sealing methods in defense of Konoha. 185 496

Six Paths power

After mastering multiple Kekkei Tōta and acquiring Ten-Tails chakra, Ci reaches a level capable of threatening the Sage of Six Paths and surpassing Madara. 555 563 569

  • Synthesizes Truth-Seeking Orbs, a direct manifestation of high-quality Six Paths chakra. 563
  • Uses Divine Tree World Birth to extract chakra from living beings caught under Infinite Tsukuyomi. 569

Story Role / Major Arcs

Land of Hot Water and Valley of Hell

Ci is assigned a supposedly safe C-rank mission to the Land of Hot Water, but recognizes that the region is filled with ninja groups, spies, and bounty hunters. The mission leads into the Valley of Hell crisis, where the Uchiha suffer catastrophic losses and Ci is captured. 5 18

Root operative and Uchiha successor

Ci becomes involved with Root while remaining an Uchiha, a position that even Aburame Ryoma recognizes as politically unusual. He is revealed as a member of Konoha's Special Unit and Orochimaru's favored disciple while risking his life against three hundred Suna shinobi to save the Konoha Assault Unit. 114 133

The Uchiha elders designate him as their next clan head and require him to challenge Fugaku for the Young Patriarch position. The clan invests one billion ryō into his training and treats his rapid growth as essential to its future. 174 187

Third Shinobi World War

Ci repeatedly escalates his transformations to protect Konoha, including preventing a Tailed Beast Bomb from detonating inside the village. His Jinchūriki-like power becomes both a strategic asset and a source of concern for Konoha's leadership. 179 192

He eventually fights multiple Kage-level opponents, declares himself a rogue ninja to protect Konoha from outside the system, and announces plans to assassinate the Land of Lightning's Daimyō and the Third Raikage. 298 306

Conflict with Madara and the Uchiha Clan

After ending the Third Shinobi World War, Ci becomes the focus of international surrender overtures and clan expectations. Madara identifies him as a potential inheritor of the Moon Eye Plan and attempts to manufacture tragedy within the Uchiha Clan to force Ci's Mangekyō awakening. 427 429

Ci returns before Madara's planned clan massacre can unfold, then later entrusts the Uchiha Clan to Fugaku and leaves to pursue his own course. 452 458

Battle against Madara

Ci remains determined to eliminate Madara despite understanding Madara's philosophy and accepting powerful teachings from him, including God Tsukuyomi and God Style: Deep Forest Emergence. 483

Their battle forces Ci to use regeneration, Mind's Eye perception, a Four-@@REF_ENTITY_10225939@@rmed Susanoo, Heavenly Transfer, genjutsu counters, Izanagi, and Tailed Beast chakra in an attempt to overcome Madara's Rinnegan and Limbo techniques. 485 486 490 496

Ancient Uchiha history and Indra's training

Ci becomes trapped in the era of the ancient Uchiha civil war, escapes the clan dungeon with Shiri and Hikari, and seeks Uchiha Naga. Through Naga, he learns that Mangekyō dōjutsu were dangerous modifications to the Uchiha bloodline rather than its original limit. 517 534 535

Indra later trains Ci in Tsukuyomi, allowing him to master elemental chakra modes, Kekkei Genkai, and advanced fusion principles in an accelerated subjective timespan. 550

Fourth Hokage and Six Paths ascent

After reviving among Konoha's leadership during the Five Kage Summit, Ci is addressed as the Fourth Hokage. 555

He saves Konoha from destruction by supporting a falling landmass with Sage Art and Vibration Release, destroys the Pure Land Gate, and departs to seek the power needed to rescue captured Uchiha clan members and defeat the Sage of Six Paths. 565

At the height of his power, Ci extracts chakra through Divine Tree World Birth, defeats Madara with Susanoo God, and seeks to establish a reproducible path to Six Paths power for the wider ninja world. 569

Trivia
