Background / History
Sasuke enters the Ninja Academy as Fugaku Uchiha's youngest son. He is already regarded as a privileged young member of Konoha's premier clan, arriving with his father and displaying precise shuriken technique. He watches Qianyu with curiosity after Fugaku becomes visibly unsettled by Qianyu's resemblance to Madara Uchiha. 2
Before the Uchiha clan extermination, Fugaku asks Qianyu to look after Sasuke at the Academy, describing his son as gifted but overly proud. Sasuke is confused when Fugaku offers Qianyu Uchiha techniques and compensation for a prior assassination attempt. 9
The massacre destroys Sasuke emotionally. Qianyu later tells him that Itachi had outside help and that hidden Uchiha children were also killed, prompting Sasuke's one-tomoe Sharingan to awaken. Qianyu warns him that his enemies extend beyond Itachi. 12
At graduation, Sasuke defines Konoha as both the place that nurtured his hatred and the system that permitted his clan's destruction. He distinguishes the village leadership and Itachi from civilians and friends such as Naruto. 31
Orochimaru places the Curse Mark of Heaven on Sasuke during the Chunin Exams. Although Qianyu recognizes its corrosive influence, Sasuke is exhilarated by the power it provides and later trains intensely under Kakashi to control it. 35 36 38
After losing to Naruto despite reaching Curse Mark State Two, Sasuke chooses to leave Konoha with Orochimaru in pursuit of greater strength. Qianyu permits the departure, believing Sasuke needs to escape Naruto's shadow and pursue his own path; Tsunade publicly classifies the arrangement as a long-term confidential mission. 49 50
In the Land of Rice Fields, Sasuke learns that Shimura Danzō—not Itachi alone—planned the Uchiha massacre. He joins Qianyu's mission against Danzō, ultimately delivering the fatal Chidori strike after Qianyu incapacitates him. 61 63
Appearance
Sasuke has black hair and black eyes, delicate features, and an initially proud, detached demeanor. As a child, he wears a dark blue short-sleeved shirt; later, he trains in a dark gray high-collared outfit with rolled sleeves. 2 9 61
- Black hair and eyes. 2
- Refined facial features with an aloof expression. 2
- Two- and later three-tomoe Sharingan. 31 49
- A Curse Mark on his neck, usually concealed beneath a high collar. 35 39
- In Curse Mark State Two, develops ash-gray skin, vertical pupils, and purple fleshy wings. 49
Personality
Sasuke is reserved, proud, and intensely focused on becoming stronger. Even as a child, he studies others with detached scrutiny and reacts strongly to any implication that an outsider may possess Uchiha abilities. 2 9
The destruction of his clan turns his purpose toward revenge. He initially responds to revelations about the massacre with uncontrolled rage, but later shows greater restraint: after learning Danzō's location, he admits he is not yet strong enough to confront his enemies recklessly. 12 61
Despite his coldness, Sasuke does not regard Konoha's ordinary civilians or his friends as enemies. He also restrains himself from fatally harming Naruto during their final clash before leaving the village. 31 49
