Background

Madara was revived by Uchiha Tamaharu through Impure World Reincarnation. Awakening beside Senju Hashirama, he initially assumed that his Eye of the Moon Plan had succeeded; instead, he learned that Obito had been captured and that his long-term scheme had failed. Madara rejected the revelation at first, suspecting a genjutsu or deception, but gradually accepted the changed state of the Shinobi World after Hashirama explained the events that followed his death. 215

Though initially hostile toward Tamaharu's authority over the Uchiha Clan, Madara agreed to cooperate after seeing that the clan had survived and prospered. He remained determined to surpass Tamaharu and restore the Uchiha Clan's glory. 215

After regaining his Rinnegan, Madara quickly adapted to manipulating Reishi in his revived state. He immediately sought a rematch with Hashirama, though Tamaharu and Hashirama insisted that he first stabilize his spiritual power. 216

Madara later recovered a true physical body through the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill. He joined the Flame Alliance's expansion into the Dou Qi Continent, took command of the Black-Corner Region, and led its purge of criminal factions. 290 302

Appearance

In his Resurrección state, Madara resembles a Six Paths combatant: his hair turns milky white, nine Truth-Seeking Balls appear behind him, and Reishi forms black-and-white armor resembling his Warring States-era battle attire. 270

  • Possesses the Sharingan and Rinnegan, with a Rinne Sharingan manifesting on his forehead when his Clan Mark is active. 216 317
  • Uses a blue Susanoo, including a Perfect Susanoo armed with multiple weapons. 217 269
  • His Clan Mark is engraved on his forehead. 317
  • His Rinnegan reverted to Sharingan after he exhausted himself contributing power to Tamaharu's final formation. 433

Personality

Madara is intensely proud, confrontational, and dismissive toward opponents he considers weak. He regularly refers to inferior enemies as “small fry” and treats negotiations as demands backed by force. 267 292 293

Despite his arrogance, he is highly strategic in battle. Against Barragan, he deliberately tested the limits of Respira, concealed Wood Clones among burning trees, and used Limbo only after confirming that Barragan feared allowing the hidden clones to touch him. 227 228

Madara remains deeply attached to the Uchiha Clan. He considers the clan a collective in which every member must contribute to its prosperity, and he willingly assumes responsibility for the Flame Alliance and the Uchiha forces when Tamaharu is absent. 302 348

Abilities & Skills

  • Uses Chibaku Tensei to create gravitational sealing cores. 227
  • Uses Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in for repulsion and attraction. 227 233
  • Uses the Naraka Path and the King of Hell to consume soul-based attacks. 304

Limbo: Border Jail

Madara creates invisible Limbo shadows that ordinary opponents cannot see.

  • Limbo shadows destroyed Barragan after his movements were restricted by Wood Clones. 228
  • They overwhelmed Kisuke Urahara from multiple angles and could only be revealed after Urahara bound one with Bakudō. 269
  • The shadows primarily engage in close combat and cannot use Madara's other techniques. 269

Susanoo

Madara manifests a powerful blue Susanoo, from basic defensive forms to a Perfect Susanoo. 217 233 269

  • The Perfect Susanoo can wield four twisting, snake-like weapons and unleash large-scale sword pressure. 269
  • Uses Yasaka Magatama attacks powerful enough to force Barragan to devote Respira to defense. 227
  • Employs Majestic Attire: Susanoo to armor Senju Hashirama's Wood Buddha during the Soul Clan battle. 418
  • Can dismiss the Susanoo instantly when its armor is compromised, avoiding the spread of Barragan's decay. 227

Wood Release

Madara uses Wood Release tactically rather than relying solely on overwhelming force.

  • Creates burning trees and conceals low-chakra Wood Clones among them. 227 228
  • Uses Deep Forest Bloom as part of his diversion against Barragan. 227
  • Coordinates with Hashirama's Wood Buddha by applying Majestic Attire: Susanoo armor. 418

  • Opened the Flame Alliance's assault on the Soul Hall with Storm Release attacks against its lower-ranked forces. 311

  • Gains milky-white hair, Truth-Seeking Balls, and Reishi-formed armor. 270
  • His Resurrección caused Death Gods to compare its oppressive Reiatsu to Yhwach's invasion. 270
  • Uses Six Paths Power: Descent of God, which he employed to defeat Thunder Venerable decisively. 301

Clan Mark

Tamaharu's Clan Mark enhances Madara's Otsutsuki-derived bloodline.

  • Produces a forehead Rinne Sharingan and a transformation resembling Six Paths Madara. 317
  • Raised him to seven-star Dou Zun after activation, though it leaves him weakened afterward. 317
  • At its later peak, it raises his battle power to six-star Dou Sheng. 418
