Background & History
Xiu was raised by Uchiha Hazuki, whom he calls “Aunt Hazuki” and treats as a mother figure, alongside Uchiha Izumi, who considers herself his older sister. Even as a child, he possessed unusual items and abilities that Hazuki recognized as extraordinary. His knowledge of future events makes him distrustful of the Uchiha leadership and determined to prepare for the approaching clan crisis. 9 12
After receiving Shisui’s Transcription Seal, Xiu shifts from merely intending to preserve Hazuki and Izumi to considering intervention on behalf of more Uchiha. He equips Hazuki with the Twin Masks, gives Izumi the Healing Pacifier, and implants a Kamui-based fatal-attack safeguard into Izumi’s eyes. 9 11 12
At age six, Xiu graduates early from the Ninja Academy after defeating Kurenai Yuhi in a Genjutsu-based examination. Though Kurenai is assigned as his squad leader alongside Hazuki and Izumi, she later yields the team’s decision-making authority to him after recognizing the disparity in their strength. 16 18 21 22
During the team’s first C-rank escort and modeling mission to the Land of Iron, Xiu kills Kakuzu after testing his own regenerative body against the latter’s attacks. He obtains more than two billion ryō from Kakuzu, uses the wealth to purchase a luxury hot-spring inn for Hazuki, and relocates his household out of the Uchiha compound. 29 30 40
Xiu’s conflict with Uchiha Fugaku escalates when Fugaku attempts to compel him to attend clan meetings. Xiu defeats and humiliates the clan head, then later backs Shisui’s candidacy for clan head. By displaying his Mangekyō Sharingan, Susanoo, and overwhelming chakra, he forces a unanimous vote in Shisui’s favor while refusing the position himself. 34 35 41 44
After Itachi and a tiger-masked man lure him into an ambush through a Genjutsu-controlled Kurenai, Xiu defeats Itachi and exposes Danzō as the source of the assassination order. The subsequent political fallout ends with Danzō dead, Hiruzen Sarutobi resigning, and the village advisers placed under surveillance. 48 51 64
Xiu later uses Impure World Reincarnation to revive Nohara Rin, initially intending to use her existence against Obito. Rin becomes part of his household, while his relationships with Izumi and Rin gradually become emotionally complicated. 60 61 64 66
Following Tsunade’s return and Konoha’s reforms, Xiu becomes a Jonin. Tsunade eventually asks him to lead Naruto Uzumaki’s team, trusting his strength, his ability to control the Nine-Tails, and his underlying reliability despite his openly selfish behavior. 66 68 72
Appearance
Xiu is repeatedly noted for his exceptional appearance, even among the Uchiha. After the six-year time skip, he is described as a 1.7-meter-tall young man with a balanced, athletic build and long black hair. 25 66
- Long black hair, usually tied back after reaching adolescence. 66
- Dark eyes that become blood-red when he activates the Sharingan. 5 12
- Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan with an intricate rice-shaped, eight-pointed pattern composed of overlapping shuriken motifs. 12 44
- Wore his Konoha forehead protector on his forehead after finding it too loose for his arm at age six. 24
Personality
Xiu is arrogant, sharp-tongued, and intensely independent. He rejects authority based on rank, clan status, or tradition, responding far better to sincere requests than to commands. He considers most rules negotiable and measures people largely by whether they respect him and those under his protection. 24 33 41
His arrogance is supported by genuine ability, but he is not simply reckless. Xiu prefers to pressure opponents into breaking first, then crush them after they have exposed their weaknesses. His ideal revenge is not a quick death but the destruction of an enemy’s wealth, relationships, ambitions, reputation, and sense of self. 24 30
Despite this cruelty, Xiu is consistently protective of people he recognizes as his own. He takes the most dangerous position during missions, scouts with Shadow Clones, supplies Hazuki and Izumi with life-saving items, and shields Kurenai even while insulting her. 11 12 33 50
Wealth changes his lifestyle dramatically. After taking Kakuzu’s fortune, he embraces the comforts of his hot-spring inn, gambling machines, fine food, billiards, and financial independence, while still directing much of his wealth toward Hazuki’s security. 30 40
Abilities & Skills
Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan
Xiu’s Mangekyō Sharingan is an Eternal form activated perfectly by “Earth Mother.” He believes ordinary Mangekyō blindness may result from damage or incompleteness during awakening, though this remains his personal theory. 12
- Uses the Three-Tomoe Sharingan to copy techniques, read opponents, and cast Genjutsu without hand seals. 9 18
- Can manipulate an opponent through peripheral vision and subtle attention shifts without requiring direct eye contact. 18
- Generates sufficient ocular power and chakra pressure to intimidate entire gatherings of Uchiha. 35 44
- Its abilities make him a target for Itachi and the tiger-masked man, both of whom seek to neutralize or seize his eyes. 48
Kamui
Xiu possesses Kamui in both Mangekyō eyes, giving him control over a personal space-time dimension. 29 50
- Left eye — warps targets at range into Kamui Space, as shown when he sends Kurenai away to deny Obito a hostage. 50
- Right eye — transfers himself through spatial vortices for instantaneous movement and pursuit. 29
- Intangibility — attacks can pass through his body through automatic spatial displacement. 29 50
- Kamui interference — can disrupt the tiger-masked man’s spatial transfer, though not his instantaneous Intangibility. 50
- Limitations — ranged warping requires visual focus; smoke, concealment, and evasive movement can obstruct his targeting. 50
Susanoo
Xiu manifests a black Susanoo as the third major power of his Mangekyō Sharingan. 29 44
- Forms protective black ribs quickly enough to shield Izumi from surprise shuriken attacks. 48
- Uses Susanoo to block Root’s projectile assault during his confrontation with Itachi. 51
- Employs a Susanoo strike to knock down Enka during Shisui’s election. 44
Super-Evolution Immortal Body
Xiu possesses a regenerative body that evolves through damage and exposure. 11 29
- Heals wounds from Kakuzu’s ordinary and chakra-enhanced kunai almost immediately. 29
- Adapts after repeated attacks and uses enemy techniques to strengthen his bodily resistance. 29 30
- Neutralizes nano-scale venomous insects that should kill a target within seconds. 50
- His physical defense after the Kakuzu battle is compared by Xiu to surpassing an incomplete Susanoo. 30
Transcription Seal
Xiu mastered Shisui’s Transcription Seal instantly through the Sharingan’s copying ability. 9
- Transfers ocular power and techniques into another person’s eyes. 12
- Implants a Kamui safeguard in Izumi that activates against fatal attacks or powerful Genjutsu. 12
- Izumi’s safeguard grants Intangibility for up to twenty minutes before transporting her to Xiu’s Kamui Space. 12
- Repeated Eye-Power Transcriptions cause mental fatigue even with Xiu’s large chakra reserves. 13
Ninjutsu and Combat Skill
Xiu combines instinctive technique acquisition with exceptional physical combat ability. 18 34
- Defeated Kurenai’s Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death with a counter-Genjutsu during his graduation test. 18
- Uses large-scale Fire Release and can destroy Obito’s Wood Release attacks with a Great Fireball. 21 50
- Has learned the Eight Gates, Rasengan, wind-nature transformation, and Impure World Reincarnation. 34
- Uses Impure World Reincarnation to summon Nohara Rin and later intends to use it on Danzō. 61 64
- Cannot immediately master Flying Thunder God, as it demands knowledge of sealing, sensory perception, space-time principles, and rapid reflexes. 34
Equipment & Items
- Usurper Marquis — A Golden long blade that inflicts no physical damage but can plunder and transfer concepts, including skills, memories, emotions, personality traits, and identities. Xiu avoids relying on it because he has not established its limits and fears it could interfere with soulbinding. 11
- Twin Masks — A soulbound, indestructible Golden Item given to Hazuki. It creates one full-strength clone, transfers damage to that clone, permits position-switching, and can sacrifice the clone in place of the original. 11
- Healing Pacifier — A protective gift given to Izumi; it releases warm energy through her body when used. 9 11
- Agility Cloak — One of the three item-based gifts Xiu distributes to protect those close to him. 11
- Storage scrolls — Used to seal Kakuzu’s corpse so it cannot expose secrets or be exploited through Impure World Reincarnation. 29
Relationships
- Uchiha Hazuki — Maternal guardian and the person Xiu most consistently listens to. He gives her the Twin Masks, buys her a hot-spring inn, and seeks financial independence partly to ease her burdens. 11 30 40
- Uchiha Izumi — His self-proclaimed older sister and closest childhood companion. Xiu protects her with the Healing Pacifier and a Kamui Transcription Seal; their teasing relationship later develops obvious romantic tension. 9 12 64 67
- Kurenai Yuhi — Initially his graduation examiner and appointed squad leader. Their hostile rivalry becomes mutual trust after she conceals his Mangekyō secret and he gives her the Spirit Transformation Technique. 18 22 33
- Uchiha Shisui — A trusted ally who gives Xiu the Transcription Seal and later asks for his support in becoming clan head. Xiu respects Shisui’s sincerity and backs his election. 9 41 44
- Uchiha Fugaku — Former clan head whom Xiu considers an unworthy authority. Their conflict ends with Fugaku’s defeat, humiliation, and reluctant recognition of Xiu’s power. 34 35
- Uchiha Itachi — Rival and would-be assassin. Itachi’s resentment stems partly from jealousy of Xiu’s talent, influence, appearance, and power. 48 51
- Uchiha Sasuke — Initially hostile after Xiu’s conflicts with Fugaku and Itachi; later seeks to become Xiu’s disciple, believing Xiu is the only Uchiha capable of guiding him. 60 72
- Nohara Rin — Revived by Xiu through Impure World Reincarnation, initially as part of a plan against Obito. She later becomes an attendant in his household and develops romantic feelings for him. 61 64 66
- Tsunade — Hokage, creditor, and self-described “bad friend.” She trusts Xiu enough to request his help with Naruto and the revival of Nawaki and Dan Katō, while owing him more than 180 million ryō. 68 69
- Naruto Uzumaki — Xiu’s student and a target of both his Dream Fulfillment and Villain Systems. Xiu intends to become Naruto’s “only light” while also recognizing how easily Naruto’s isolation could be exploited. 68 72
- Obito / the Tiger-Masked Man — A space-time rival whose single Kamui eye leaves him at a disadvantage against Xiu’s two-eyed Kamui. Xiu later plans to use Rin’s revival to manipulate him. 50 60
