Background / History

Mufeng was a college student in his previous life. He died after his e-bike was struck by a heavy-duty truck, then awakened in the Naruto world as Sasuke Uchiha's twin brother. For five years, he unsuccessfully attempted to avert the Uchiha massacre by warning figures such as Shisui and Fugaku and trying to change Itachi's loyalty to Konoha. Before gaining his later abilities, he considered his aptitude mediocre and knew only the Body Flicker Technique and Great Fireball Technique. 1

During the massacre, Mufeng confronted Itachi with a two-tomoe Sharingan while Sasuke lay unconscious under Tsukuyomi. He failed to save his parents or the clan and was himself incapacitated by Itachi's genjutsu. Only afterward did he enter the Trans-Dimensional Space, where alternate versions of Mufeng could exchange memories and abilities. 1

After recovering in Konoha Hospital, Mufeng concealed what he knew from Hiruzen Sarutobi, claiming he remembered nothing after Itachi's genjutsu. He returned to the looted Uchiha Compound, salvaged a burned Uchiha Style Swordsmanship manual attributed to Izuna Uchiha, and recovered the family's remaining funds and a small number of scrolls. 2

He made Sasuke's survival and development a priority, teaching him Water Breathing rather than allowing him to recklessly pursue Itachi. Mufeng's broader goal is not only revenge, but gathering enough power and allies to survive future threats to the shinobi world. 2 6

Personality

Mufeng is cynical toward Konoha's leadership and deeply distrustful of the official explanation for the Uchiha massacre. He can convincingly feign grief and compliance when dealing with Hiruzen, but privately views the village's treatment of the Uchiha as proof that Konoha will never fully accept him. 2 48

Although revenge drives much of his training, he is more pragmatic than Sasuke. He repeatedly restrains Sasuke's self-destructive behavior, insists that power must be built step by step, and trains Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura to cooperate rather than relying on individual strength. 2 41

Mufeng is confident, teasing, and frequently calls Sasuke “Second Pillar,” but he takes responsibility for people he considers his own. He supports Naruto materially and emotionally, protects his teammates in combat, and seeks to establish Harbor as a refuge and power base for outcasts. 3 38 45

He can also be calculating and ruthless toward enemies. He uses genjutsu, intimidation, blood-based tracking, and psychological pressure to secure Zabuza's cooperation, and he treats Gato's wealth as startup capital for his own long-term plans. 45 47 48

Abilities & Skills

Sharingan

Mufeng possesses a three-tomoe Sharingan gained through his connection to the Trans-Dimensional Space.

  • Copies ninjutsu after witnessing Kakashi's demonstrations, including advanced Water Style techniques. 3 6
  • Reads projectile trajectories and counters Sasuke's shuriken attacks during the Academy combat test. 5
  • Casts genjutsu to extract intelligence from captured enemies and briefly overwhelms Orochimaru. 43 49
  • Was unable to prevent Itachi's Tsukuyomi from incapacitating him during the massacre. 1

Water Breathing and Swordsmanship

Mufeng merges Demon Slayer swordsmanship with shinobi combat.

  • Uses Total Concentration to greatly enhance his physical performance and sword strikes. 2
  • Employs Water Breathing's Seventh Form, Piercing Rain Drop, to kill a Root ninja before the target can react. 4
  • Trains Sasuke in Water Breathing and later teaches related Breathing Styles to Naruto and Sakura. 2 41
  • Uses the salvaged Uchiha Style Swordsmanship manual as a basis for developing his own sword style. 2

Water, Lightning, and Fire Release

Mufeng has Fire, Water, and Lightning chakra affinities and rapidly learns elemental transformations. 3

  • Water Style — Uses Water Wall, Water Prison Technique, Water Dragon Bullet, Water Wave, and Water Blade Slash. His three-seal Water Dragon Bullet overwhelms Zabuza's longer version. 6 44
  • Lightning Style — Combines Lightning Style: Earth Flash with Water Wave for area control. 6
  • Chidori Flash — A modified Thunder Breathing technique that combines Breathing with Chidori Current for extreme speed and destructive lightning damage. 38

Blood Style

Mufeng's Blood Style manifests as a highly versatile form of Blood Manipulation.

  • Blood Shield / Blood Tornado — Creates defensive blood constructs capable of blocking attacks and deflecting close-range assaults. 46
  • Iron Body — Accelerates his blood circulation to temporarily increase his bodily hardness; this lets him block Zabuza's weapon with his body. 44 46
  • Heavenly Weeping — Forms blood into a rain of piercing needles. 44 47
  • Blood Binding — Controls the blood of people mixed with his own blood, causing painful spasms and immobilization. 46
  • Tracking — Can sense blood left inside a target, allowing him to locate Zabuza and Haku's hideout. 45
  • His attempt to control Obito's blood fails after Obito escapes through Kamui. 47

Flesh Melting Furnace and Hydrification

Orochimaru develops the Blood Style technique Flesh Melting Furnace for Mufeng, intended to absorb another person's bloodline limit through a blood cocoon. 50

  • The first attempt, using a Hozuki Clan corpse, causes severe rejection and risks killing Mufeng. 50
  • Rather than safely acquiring a new Kekkei Genkai by design, he emerges with the Hydrification Technique, allowing his body to become water. 50
  • The technique remains dangerous and unreliable due to Mufeng's body's rejection of foreign bloodlines. 50

Shared Trans-Dimensional Abilities

The Trans-Dimensional Space allows Mufeng and his counterparts to exchange memories and abilities across worlds. 1

  • Soft & Wet — Keeps the Stand on watch around him for sensory coverage. Its bubbles can plunder one ability from a target, but only one bubble and one stolen ability can be active at a time. 6 7
  • Aura — Possesses a fraction of Pokémon Mufeng's Aura, which he uses to guide Naruto's breathing and inspect the chakra within Naruto's body. 41
  • Six Powers — Uses Iron Body in conjunction with Blood Style and has taught its training method to his teammates. 44 45
  • The Trans-Dimensional Space later changes so that sharing grants only a portion of another counterpart's strength, making personal training increasingly necessary. 17

Equipment / Items

  • Burned Uchiha Style Swordsmanship manual — The sole surviving manual Mufeng finds in the Uchiha archives; attributed to Izuna Uchiha. 2
  • Uchiha household scrolls — Shadow Clone Technique, Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, and Majestic Destroyer Flame were among the few techniques remaining in his family home. 2
  • Hashirama Cells vial — Taken from Kabuto; Mufeng intends to wait until awakening the Mangekyo Sharingan before using it. 39
  • Uchiha emergency funds — Money secretly left by Mikoto, which prevents the brothers from being completely destitute after the compound is looted. 2

Relationships

  • Sasuke Uchiha — His twin brother and closest family member. Mufeng trains, protects, and constantly teases Sasuke, while Sasuke is determined to surpass him and disputes Mufeng's claim to be the older brother. 2 5 38
  • Itachi Uchiha — Older brother and perpetrator of the Uchiha massacre. Mufeng blames him for the clan's destruction and trains to kill him. 1 6
  • Kakashi Hatake — Teacher, mentor, and Team 7 leader. Kakashi recognizes Mufeng's extraordinary talent, teaches him elemental ninjutsu, and tolerates some of his secretive actions so long as Konoha is not harmed. 3 6 48
  • Naruto Uzumaki — Friend and surrogate younger brother. Mufeng regularly supported Naruto before the latter gained recognition, then teaches him Wind Breathing and protects him during the Mizuki incident. 3 38 41
  • Sakura Haruno — Team 7 teammate and student. Mufeng teaches her Water Breathing and includes her in Team 7's cooperative training. 39 41
  • Hiruzen Sarutobi — Konoha's Hokage. Mufeng outwardly cooperates with him but privately suspects him and Konoha's leadership over the massacre and continued surveillance of the Uchiha survivors. 2 37
  • Kabuto Yakushi — Contact within Orochimaru's network. Mufeng pressures Kabuto for information and research involving Cursed Seals and Hashirama Cells. 37 39
  • Orochimaru — Uneasy research partner and potential enemy. Orochimaru covets Mufeng's body and bloodline, while Mufeng uses his knowledge and experiments to pursue greater power without fully trusting him. 49 50
  • Zabuza Momochi and Yuki Haku — Recruited into Harbor after Mufeng defeats and intimidates Zabuza. He uses them as the initial military force behind his Land of Waves power base. 45 48
  • Obito Uchiha — Enemy whom Mufeng immediately identifies despite Obito's “Madara” disguise. Their encounter forces Obito to treat Mufeng as a high-level threat. 47

Story Role / Major Arcs

Uchiha Massacre and Recovery

Mufeng fails to stop Itachi's massacre, gains access to the Trans-Dimensional Space afterward, and becomes one of the two surviving Uchiha children alongside Sasuke. He hides his knowledge from Hiruzen, salvages what remains of his clan's resources, and begins turning Sasuke's grief into structured training. 1 2

Kakashi's Student and Konoha Prodigy

By invoking Obito's memory, Mufeng persuades Kakashi to teach the Uchiha brothers. His rapid mastery of chakra control, Water Release, and copied ninjutsu establishes him as an exceptional talent, while his Water Breathing and combat performance draw the attention of both Hiruzen and Danzo. 3 4 6

External Anbu and Orochimaru Investigation

After becoming an external Anbu member, Mufeng gains access to Konoha's darker side while remaining under surveillance. He secretly funds the orphanage, contacts Kabuto, and uses his knowledge of Orochimaru's research to pursue Hashirama Cells and bloodline-related experiments. 37 39

Team 7 and the Land of Waves

Mufeng joins Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura under Kakashi despite being treated separately in some missions. During the Land of Waves mission, he defeats Zabuza, establishes contact with Zabuza and Haku, seizes Gato's wealth, and invests it in the Land of Waves as the foundation for Harbor. 39 44 45 48

Conflict with Obito

While controlling Gato's operation, Mufeng encounters Obito disguised as Madara. He exploits his knowledge of Kamui's materialization weakness to wound Obito, but fails to kill him when his Blood Style loses its connection to Obito's blood. 47

Orochimaru's Flesh Melting Furnace

Mufeng accepts a mission arranged through Orochimaru's network and enters Orochimaru's laboratory. There, he tests the Flesh Melting Furnace on a Hozuki Clan corpse, nearly dies from bloodline rejection, and awakens Hydrification instead. He then returns to Konoha in time to enter the Chunin Exams independently. 49 50
