Background / History

Li recalls having been a college student before being reborn into the shinobi world. He was adopted by Uchiha Hao during his early years, but quickly concluded that Hao's apparent goodwill was tied to political calculation rather than trust. 29 37

At five, Li displayed unusual talent by learning the Great Fireball Technique in three days. He deliberately chose not to hide his potential, believing that visible strength was necessary to earn resources and respect. 6 His rapid growth brought him attention from both the Third Hokage and the Uchiha Clan, but also made Hao and Danzō wary of him. 16 29

After being expelled from the Ninja Academy following an Anbu incident, Li sparred with the Third Hokage as part of his training. The Hokage's lesson stressed patience and strategy over direct aggression. 16 Li was later transferred into the Military Police Force by Hao, who sought to distance him from the clan's core. 31

Great Elder Zhan Uchiha instead placed his hopes in Li, treating him as an equal and giving him Madara Uchiha's ninjutsu scrolls. Zhan tasked him with restoring the Uchiha Clan's former standing, drawing Li toward the Hardline Faction and deepening his conflict with Hao's Moderate Faction. 36 37

Li eventually led Uchiha refugees to Hozuki Castle, captured the fortress, and reorganized its former defenders into the Grass Clan. As clan leader, he fortified the settlement, distributed powerful sealing techniques, and planned to seek Uzumaki survivors capable of establishing a defensive barrier. 92

While investigating an Otsutsuki Ancestral Hall in the Land of Rainbow, Li encountered lingering power associated with Indra Otsutsuki and a Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan. The hall's space-time mechanism drew him into the distant past, where confrontations with Indra, Asura, and their era's powers forced him to recognize the limits of his own Sage Eye and Sage Body. 242 243 253

Appearance

During his Jōnin years, Li was over 1.6 meters tall and was noted for an appearance increasingly compared to Madara Uchiha's. 64

  • Long, loose black hair extending to his waist. 64
  • Hair commonly covers his right eye, leaving the left visible. 64
  • Usually wears a black high-collared coat. 64
  • Possesses black eyes that become red Sharingan eyes when activated. 136

Personality

Li is calculating and acutely aware of political manipulation. He recognized Hao's attempt to exile him from the Uchiha Clan's center, understood the Third Hokage's willingness to use him for Konoha's interests, and consistently treats hidden motives as threats to be anticipated rather than ignored. 31 37

He is deeply protective of people he considers his own. He reassures and protects Uchiha Mikoto, takes responsibility for the displaced Uchiha population, and later agrees to protect Konoha at Hinata's request. 16 92 1231

Li's protectiveness does not extend to enemies. He favors domination over uncertainty, considering the control of defeated leaders more useful than killing them, but he is willing to use overwhelming violence when opposition remains. 98 147 His worldview centers on strength: he believes that only power sufficient to inspire fear can prevent others from imposing injustice upon him or the Uchiha. 246 318 1360

Abilities & Skills

Sharingan and Advanced Dōjutsu

Li's ocular power progressed from the Two-Tomoe Sharingan to the Mangekyō, Eternal Mangekyō, and eventually the Rinnegan. 36 74 242 318

  • Uses the Sharingan's perception to track opponents through obscuring mist and identify unfamiliar chakra. 98 232
  • Amaterasu — manifests black flames through focused ocular power; Li selected it for its immediate activation, unpredictability, and difficulty to extinguish. 72
  • Kotoamatsukami — acquired as a means of controlling hostile leaders, including his contemplated use against Long Ming. 98
  • Susanoo — manifests purple chakra avatars; his later forms possess legs, four arms, and two faces, while his perfected form exceeds 300 meters. 147 285
  • Kamui — permits dimensional movement; Li used it to enter Kaguya's personal dimension. 376
  • Heavenly Duality — Rinnegan dōjutsu that accelerates the natural end of matter and living beings within a thousand-meter radius. Its destructive Yin aspect is within Li's capacity, while restoring life is far more limited. 321

Sage Body and Six Paths Power

Li acquired a semi-Sage Body through First Hokage Cells, then completed his Six Paths bloodline through Asura and Indra cell fusion. 119 273 285

  • Wood Release — uses techniques including Wood Dragon Technique, Deep Forest Emergence, and Wood Human Technique. 119 253
  • Sage Mode — infuses his attacks with natural energy, enabling Wood Release to damage Kekkei Mōra; his initial Sage Body required continual concentration to absorb natural energy. 253
  • Truth-Seeking Orbs and Yin–Yang Release — gained after Asura-cell modification; the resulting Kekkei Mōra can nullify ninjutsu and prevent Impure World Reincarnation bodies from regenerating damage. 273 323
  • Rapid regeneration — after perfecting his Sage Body and Sage Eye, nonfatal wounds heal almost immediately. 285
  • Limitation — Senjutsu chakra can interfere with his Yin–Yang-based powers, a weakness recognized by Orochimaru and Minato. 323

Fire and Lightning Release

Li's earliest specialty was Fire Release, later supplemented by high-level Lightning Release. 6 49

  • Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique — his first ninjutsu and an early demonstration of his talent. 6 10
  • Majestic Destroyer FlameA-rank Fire Release learned from Madara Uchiha's scrolls. 36
  • Great Fireball Extinguish — creates a sea of fire capable of forcing large groups into retreat. 98
  • Chidori — exchanged through the system and developed for use with Sharingan-enhanced dynamic vision. 49
  • Chidori Current — releases lightning around his body to escape encirclement and evade attacks. 1357
  • Seventh Gate of the Eight Gates — can open the Gate of Wonder, producing blue chakra steam through extreme chakra circulation. 1312

Sealing and Space-Time Techniques

Li studies sealing arts for both warfare and long-term defense.

  • Adapted Fire Release: Heavenly Prison from the Uzumaki Clan's Demon Sealing Jutsu for Kushina and Mikoto. 92
  • Learned the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style in a short period. 124
  • Used the Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan pattern and a barrier left by the Sage of Six Paths to open a Time Passage. 286
  • Retrieved the Heavenly Cloud Sword after destroying the Ancestral Hall's Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan barrier. 286 287

System Interface

Li's system issues missions, awards points, and allows him to exchange points for techniques and bloodline-related upgrades. 16 38 49

  • Received a five-minute survival mission against the Third Hokage, worth 1,000 points. 16
  • Exchanged points for Chidori, Amaterasu, Kotoamatsukami, and major bloodline modifications. 49 72 98 285
  • Earned 1.15 million points by attacking Sunagakure with Susanoo. 146
  • Learned that the system's pawn function requires completion of at least one SS-rank mission. 286

Equipment / Weapons / Items

  • Kusanagi Sword — weapon Li readied during his duel with Susanoo. 642
  • Tenseigan — taken from the moon for further study and reforging in one of Orochimaru's former laboratories. 1233

Relationships

  • Uchiha Mikoto — close companion whom Li repeatedly protects; she trains alongside Kushina to help defend him and the Uchiha Clan. 16 92 124
  • Kushina — trusted ally and recipient of Li's sealing techniques; she is openly concerned about the damage caused by his Mangekyō Sharingan. 92 111 124
  • Uchiha Hao — adoptive guardian and leader of the Moderate Faction; Hao attempts to remove Li from the clan's political core and fears his rise. 31 37 74
  • Zhan Uchiha / Great Elder — mentor within the Hardline Faction; supplies Madara's scrolls and entrusts Li with reviving the Uchiha Clan. 36 37
  • Third Hokage — early trainer and political patron who later becomes one of Li's principal adversaries. 16 31 163
  • Uchiha Fugaku — initially Hao's favored son and later a mentor who teaches Li basic ninja fundamentals. 6 1267 1289
  • Jiraiya — nominal former teacher; Li rejects Jiraiya's claims of a teacher-student bond, believing Jiraiya never taught him or trusted him. 163
  • Orochimaru — recurring opponent, observer, and occasional trainer who recognizes Li's extraordinary potential while coveting his power. 147 1357
  • Hinata Hyuga — ally in a parallel Naruto world; Li saves her from puppet attacks, cooperates with her on the moon, and agrees to protect Konoha at her request. 1151 1220 1231
  • Kinnara Otsutsuki — companion from the distant past who later tells Li that they had twins, Mu and Rin. 281 302
  • Indra and Asura Otsutsuki — rivals whose power exposes the incompleteness of Li's Sage Eye and Sage Body, driving his pursuit of Six Paths power. 243 253 285
