Arc 1The Uchiha’s New Path
Uchiha Jobu rose from a young fighter to a key strategist as the Uchiha fought the Kaguya and clashed with the Senju, while he pushed for a village and experimented with Kekkei Genkai. The arc left him fighting Chinoike Clan ninja during an escort mission in the Land of Lightning.
- Uchiha Jobu discovered that killing enemies yielded loot, learned Earth Release, and gained a One-Tomoe Sharingan after helping the Uchiha defeat the Kaguya Clan.
- Uchiha Jobu argued that the Uchiha should protect the Hagoromo Clan, then presented a Ninja Village Plan that won the elders’ support and drew Senju Hashirama and Tobirama into talks.
- Uchiha Jobu used Shikotsumyaku against Tobirama Senju and fought through the Senju and their allies as Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama battled over peace.
- Tobirama Senju took Uchiha Izuna’s Sharingan, driving Madara to awaken Mangekyō Sharingan and Susanoo and resume fighting Hashirama.
- Uchiha Jobu urged Madara to stop the battle and focus on Izuna, then gave Izuna control of the laboratory where Jobu had experimented on refugees.
- Uchiha Jobu escorted Shinteng Zoi toward the Land of Lightning with Ying and refugee subordinates, but Chinoike Clan ninja attacked them at a desolate town.
- Uchiha Jobu fought the Chinoike attackers while Ying and two subordinates returned to Shinteng Zoi, then escaped an explosion and realized a Chinoike ninja had turned a clansman into a human bomb.
