Power Progression

Stage / Realm / Level Chapter Notes
Improved chakra control 7 Practices Neji’s exercises and learns another Fire Release technique, but remains unable to overcome Neji’s Gentle Fist.
One-tomoe Sharingan consciously activated 7 Neji’s insults provoke enough anger to reveal one tomoe in each eye. Neji recalls that Sasuke had previously awakened the Sharingan without realizing it.
Two-tomoe Sharingan; transplant-enhanced chakra and eye power 24 29 Confirmed after receiving Naruto Uzumaki’s cloned limb. His perception, copying ability, and chakra increase; his eye power eventually exceeds an ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan despite retaining two tomoe.
Miniature Rasenshuriken completed 48 Adapts the technique to his limited chakra and immature body by reducing its size. A full-output version would consume enough chakra to limit him to one use.
Academy graduate / genin 90 97 Passes the Academy examination and receives a forehead protector. After Team 7 is disbanded, Hiruzen assigns him to operate alone as a genin.
Access to Ju Yan’s chakra 92 Neji seals the Seven-Tailed Fox, Ju Yan, into him and then undoes the seal. His available chakra rises sharply, but excessive use risks losing control.
Three-tomoe Sharingan confirmed 112 His eyes have three tomoe immediately before their Mangekyō transformation. The exact earlier advancement is not shown in the supplied material.
Mangekyō Sharingan awakened 111 112 Learning that the massacre was a Konoha mission begins the transformation; seeing his clansmen’s eyeless corpses completes it and greatly increases his chakra.
Four-tailed partial transformation 113 Gradually releases Ju Yan’s chakra, becoming a small dark-red fox. Gains destructive chakra blasts and a Tailed Beast Bomb, but suffers burns and intensified rage.
Mangekyō abilities identified 129 Discovers an Izanagi-like ability in his left eye and the lightning- and soul-destroying Futsunomitama Sword in his right.
Mangekyō Sharingan and Monster Strength mastered 131 After a six-month interval, his strength exceeds ordinary Kage-level fighters. Perfect jinchūriki mode is still discussed as a further increase.
Perfect Sage Mode demonstrated 141 142 Uses it against Itachi, combining senjutsu with Lightning Release, elemental Rasenshuriken, and Susanoo.
Eternal Mangekyō transplant underway 144 148 Neji transplants Itachi’s Mangekyō Sharingan. The two pairs require time to merge; the transplant does not immediately awaken the Rinnegan.
Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan awakened 159 Removes his eye bandages and joins the battle against Obito and Madara.
Ju Yan chakra mode confirmed 163 Compares his Seven-Tails-derived chakra mode with Naruto’s stronger Nine-Tails form. Kurama assesses Sasuke as having reached or exceeded Madara’s level.
Perfect Ten-Tails jinchūriki; six-tomoe Rinnegan 173 Releases Ju Yan and absorbs a Ten-Tails offshoot. Awakens a purple six-tomoe Rinnegan in his left eye and gains a controllable, Kaguya-like transformed appearance.
Rinne Sharingan confirmed 196 Hagoromo recognizes his crimson Rinne Sharingan and Ten-Tails jinchūriki state. Its exact awakening is not shown in the supplied material.
Further strengthening through consuming Kaguya 200 Splits and devours his original world’s Kaguya with Neji. Their strength increases, but most of the absorbed power goes toward growing Chakra Fruit rather than producing an immediate qualitative transformation.

Background / History

Uchiha inheritance and Neji’s mentorship

Sasuke remembers his childhood in the Uchiha Clan as warm and happy. As the clan head’s second son, he did not play with the other children, but also did not deliberately bully them. After the massacre, he searches the compound and finds only a few Fire Release scrolls, hidden-weapon records, and the Ninja Cat Clan’s summoning contract 6 44.

His early confidence rests heavily on the Uchiha name. After easily defeating Naruto in an Academy spar, he challenges Neji and loses decisively. Neji exposes weaknesses in his chakra control and begins teaching him tree-walking and water-walking exercises 4 5 6 7.

Neji’s account of Konoha’s handling of the Hyuga kidnapping incident makes Sasuke reconsider his favorable opinion of the Third Hokage. The missing Uchiha training materials further deepen his suspicion that the village exploited his clan’s destruction 6 7.

Repeated sparring turns their rivalry into friendship. Sasuke agrees to obtain medical and biological research through the Ninja Cat Clan, then joins Neji’s plan to combine inherited powers using Naruto’s tissue. Neji’s explanations of the Rinnegan give Sasuke a new goal beyond awakening the Sharingan 8 12 13.

Training and independence

Following Neji’s advice, Sasuke repeatedly confronts memories of the massacre. Over several months, he becomes calmer, less openly hostile toward Naruto, and able to hear Itachi’s name without losing control. He also becomes more willing to ask Neji for instruction 14 16.

Sasuke expands his arsenal by openly observing Konoha’s training grounds and copying ninjutsu and taijutsu. When Root operatives search the Uchiha Shrine without producing credentials or a written order, he fights them with Neji’s support. He subsequently removes the Stone Tablet and stores it at home to protect it from further intrusion 20 26 30 31.

After graduation, Sasuke’s strength far exceeds Naruto’s and Sakura’s. Kakashi’s bell test exposes their lack of teamwork, prompting Hiruzen to disband Team 7 and allow Sasuke to work alone as a genin 90 97.

Discovering the massacre’s truth

Sasuke eventually believes Konoha helped Itachi and an accomplice conceal the massacre, but still wants direct evidence. With Neji drawing attention toward the Hyuga Clan, he breaks into Root headquarters and uses shadow clones to search its records 92 108 111.

A scroll identifies the massacre as an S-rank mission ordered to prevent an Uchiha coup. Sasuke then finds dozens of preserved Uchiha corpses with their eyes removed, including people he recognizes. The discovery triggers his Mangekyō Sharingan; he burns the laboratory and attacks the village forces sent to arrest him 111 112.

Ju Yan’s chakra enables him to destroy much of Root’s base and kill Mitokado Homura. Neji helps him locate Utatane Koharu, whom Sasuke kills with a combined Wind-Fire Rasenshuriken. He rejects Orochimaru’s offer of assistance and leaves Konoha in open opposition to its leadership 113 114 115 143.

Confrontation with Itachi

Neji brings Sasuke to meet Itachi outside Iwagakure. Sasuke challenges his brother’s claim that sacrificing the clan served peace, particularly when Itachi’s Akatsuki work has helped advance the Ten-Tails and Infinite Tsukuyomi plans 140 141.

Their duel escalates into a destructive Susanoo battle. Sasuke wins through senjutsu-enhanced Susanoo and his Izanagi-like ability, but catches Itachi as he falls. Before dying from his illness, Itachi admits that he spared Sasuke out of love, explains Danzo’s coercion, apologizes, and transfers his memories 142 143.

The memories reveal Itachi’s life as a double agent trapped between clan and village demands. Sasuke feels grief rather than satisfaction after achieving revenge. He then takes Itachi’s body to the Land of Waves, where Neji performs the eye transplant that produces his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan 143 144 159.

Ten-Tails conflict and pursuit of Kaguya

After entering the battlefield, Sasuke publicly exposes the masked man as Obito Uchiha. He helps prevent Obito from recovering all of the Ten-Tails’ severed body, then turns to Danzo. By feigning obedience to Kotoamatsukami, he catches Danzo off guard and destroys his soul 159 161 162.

Naruto intervenes when Sasuke attacks the reanimated Hiruzen and Tobirama. Sasuke defeats Naruto in their clash, but later cooperates with him against Madara after becoming a perfect Ten-Tails jinchūriki 163 173 175.

Sasuke fights Kaguya alongside Neji and Naruto, using space-time swaps, Susanoo, black lightning, and Indra’s Arrow. His confrontation with her fractures the Desert Dimension and leaves him catastrophically injured, though his Ten-Tails power restores his body almost immediately 179 181 185.

Pursuing Kaguya brings Sasuke and Neji into a parallel world. Sasuke meets that world’s version of himself and Hagoromo, leaving the local Madara conflict to his counterpart. In the final supplied chapter, he and Neji consume their original world’s Kaguya and target the parallel world’s Kaguya to further develop their Chakra Fruit 195 196 197 200.

Appearance

  • Sharingan: Scarlet eyes with one, two, and eventually three black tomoe 7 24 112.
  • Mangekyō Sharingan: Three solid black tomoe joined end to end, distinct from the pattern Neji expected Sasuke to possess 112 129.
  • Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan: Retains the linked tomoe, with additional black lines extending inward toward the eye’s center after merging with Itachi’s eyes 159.
  • Rinnegan: A purple six-tomoe Rinnegan in his left eye 173.
  • Rinne Sharingan: Crimson; its eye power places oppressive pressure on his parallel-world counterpart 196.
  • Partial tailed-beast form: A small dark-red fox with four chakra tails 113.
  • Ten-Tails form: Resembles Kaguya’s appearance. Sasuke dislikes the transformed look and alters it using his control over the form 173.

Personality

Sasuke is proud of his clan and initially overestimates how much inherited power can accomplish. Awakening the Sharingan immediately convinces him that he can defeat Neji, despite repeated losses proving otherwise. His stubbornness nevertheless drives him to keep training and challenging stronger opponents 5 7 8.

His pursuit of strength does not initially erase his moral limits. He explicitly rejects Itachi’s instruction to kill someone close to him to awaken the Mangekyō, insisting that he will defeat his brother without sacrificing a friend. He also condemns the Hyuga practice of treating fellow clan members as servants or slaves 19 44.

Confronting his trauma makes him more thoughtful and less reactive. He accepts instruction, examines the limitations of his eyes, and develops techniques suited to his available chakra rather than relying solely on clan prestige. His concern for Neji’s dangerous chakra drain shows that their rivalry has become genuine loyalty 16 17 36 48.

Discovering Konoha’s role in the massacre makes Sasuke ruthless toward its leadership. He kills Homura, Koharu, and Danzo, and is willing to attack reanimated Hokage who oppose him. Revenge does not bring him satisfaction: Itachi’s death leaves him grieving, and Danzo’s destruction produces no visible joy 113 114 143 162 163.

He remains capable of cooperation beyond his personal grievances. Against Madara and Kaguya, he coordinates with Naruto and Neji, using his abilities to create openings for their attacks 175 179 185.

Abilities & Skills

Sharingan: Perception and Copying

The Sharingan lets Sasuke track movement, observe chakra, and reproduce techniques within the limits of his eye power 20 24 36.

  • Copies ninjutsu and taijutsu from senior ninja at Konoha’s training grounds 20 26.
  • Uses chakra observation to confirm that Neji’s eyes are consuming chakra as it passes through them 36.
  • His enhanced two-tomoe eyes possess greater eye power than an ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan 29.
  • Initially cannot copy Neji’s Rasengan because its difficulty exceeds what his eyes can handle 17.
  • Breaks Itachi’s genjutsu during their confrontation 141.

Left-Eye Dōjutsu: Izanagi

Sasuke’s left Mangekyō eye possesses an ability with the same effect as Izanagi, allowing him to alter unfavorable reality 129.

  • Makes his Susanoo vanish and reappear behind Itachi to land a decisive strike 142.
  • Later restores the battered Takemikazuchi during the fight against Kaguya’s Limbo shadows 185.
  • Neji explains that conventional Izanagi costs one Sharingan per use. The supplied material does not specify an equivalent permanent cost for Sasuke’s innate Mangekyō version 27 129.

Sasuke names his right-eye ability the Futsunomitama Sword, a spirit sword that commands lightning and destroys the mind and soul 129.

  • Can control natural lightning 129.

  • Overcomes Enma’s adamantine staff in two clashes 162.
  • Uses his dōjutsu to extract and completely destroy Danzo’s soul 162.
  • Claims his dōjutsu counters Kotoamatsukami to an extent, then deceives Danzo by appearing to obey its command 161 162.

Susanoo and Takemikazuchi

Sasuke manifests a purple Susanoo armed with destructive black lightning, eventually developing Perfect Susanoo and the colossal Susanoo: Takemikazuchi 142 175 181.

  • Uses skeletal Susanoo to repel Danzo’s Wind Release and dismember the reanimated Hiruzen 162.
  • Strengthens Susanoo with senjutsu, increasing its size during his duel with Itachi 142.
  • Perfect Susanoo wields the Sword of Baku and disperses Madara’s Limbo shadows 175.
  • Takemikazuchi surrounds its enormous warrior form with black-purple lightning and forces Kaguya to dodge its sword 181.
  • Kaguya can shatter his Susanoo and eventually overwhelm Takemikazuchi’s defenses 179 181.

Elemental Ninjutsu and Rasenshuriken

By his Academy years, Sasuke is proficient in Fire, Wind, and Lightning Release. He learns the Rasengan principles from Neji and develops multiple Rasenshuriken variants 17 29.

  • Fire Release: Uses the Great Fireball, Fire Dragon, and senjutsu-enhanced Explosive Flame Bullet techniques 5 97 142.
  • Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere: Fires compressed wind projectiles from his mouth; copied as a B-rank technique at Konoha’s training grounds 30.
  • Rasengan: Uses a spinning chakra sphere to break into Root’s corpse-storage laboratory 112.

  • Wind-Fire: Rasenshuriken: Fuses fire- and wind-based versions into a combined attack originally intended for Itachi; uses it to kill Koharu and her defenders 114.
  • Senjutsu variants: Enhances both Fire and Wind Rasenshuriken during the Itachi duel, although Itachi counters their combined form with Amaterasu and the Totsuka Blade 142.

Taijutsu, Speed, and Monster Strength

Sasuke combines copied fighting techniques, Sharingan prediction, Lightning Release stimulation, and the Senju Clan’s Monster Strength technique 20 30 129 131.

  • Uses Lightning Release to stimulate his body and greatly increase his speed 30.
  • Exploits openings with practical close-range tactics, including stamping on an opponent’s toes and following with a knee strike 30.
  • Uses the Body Flicker Technique for rapid movement and repositioning 90 112.
  • Masters Monster Strength after Neji provides its scroll 129 131.
  • Combines Monster Strength with Ten-Tails chakra imitating the Five-Tails’ properties to kick through a Limbo shadow’s repulsive barrier and Susanoo 175.
  • Before his later transformations, his growing body remains a disadvantage against adult fighters such as Kakashi 97.

Sage Mode

Sasuke demonstrates perfect Sage Mode against Itachi, enhancing his physical abilities and elemental techniques 141 142.

  • Combines Sage Mode and Lightning Release to surpass Itachi in speed and strength 142.
  • Infuses senjutsu into Fire Release, Wind Release, Rasenshuriken, and Susanoo 142.
  • Kurama identifies Sage Mode as part of the advantage Naruto must overcome when fighting him 163.

Jinchūriki Powers

Sasuke first draws on Ju Yan, the Seven-Tailed Fox, before replacing it with a Ten-Tails offshoot 92 173.

  • Ju Yan: Supplies a large chakra reserve, partial transformation, chakra tails, and Tailed Beast Bombs 92 113.
  • Early limitations: Ju Yan’s chakra amplifies violent impulses and burns Sasuke’s body; its healing restores him after the transformation 113.
  • Perfect Ten-Tails control: Allows him to control his transformed appearance and sense other Ten-Tails jinchūriki 173.
  • Regeneration: Restores his missing right arm and much of his feet almost immediately after the dimension-shattering clash with Kaguya 181.
  • Internal spiritual body: Kaguya sees the Ten-Tails’ spiritual body inside him, apparently functioning as a clone 179.
  • Chakra concealment: Hides his chakra well enough that even Karin cannot detect his approach in the parallel world 195.

Rinnegan, Rinne Sharingan, and Six Paths Techniques

Sasuke’s later eyes support space-time manipulation, chakra absorption, and techniques capable of damaging dimensions 173 176 177 181 196.

  • Amenotejikara: Creates an opening to stab Madara through the heart and swaps Kaguya into the path of Neji’s blows 176 179.
  • Preta Path: Sealing Technique Absorption: Absorbs Madara’s vast cloud of chakra-generated scorching smoke 177.
  • Indra’s Arrow: Concentrates immense Six Paths power through a lightning bow; its collision with Kaguya’s attack fractures space and shatters half the Desert Dimension 181.
  • Truth-Seeking Orb sword: Forms a black blade that cuts Jigen’s Black Iron Rod during their fight 190.
  • Flight: Travels through the air after meeting the parallel world’s Hagoromo 197.

Ōtsutsuki Consumption

Sasuke and Neji can transform their arms into hideous maws and divide an Ōtsutsuki between them 200.

  • Tear apart and consume their original world’s Kaguya, taking half each 200.
  • Gain additional strength, though most of the absorbed power develops their Chakra Fruit 200.
  • Target the parallel world’s Kaguya because their development remains incomplete 200.
