Background
Kenichi began as Orochimaru’s Genin disciple and a researcher driven by the need to become stronger. While still in Konoha, he agreed to escort the traumatized Kakashi Hatake home at Kushina Uzumaki’s request, despite finding the attempted friendship inconvenient. He also learned Genjutsu partly as insurance against Orochimaru’s potential use of him as a reincarnation vessel. 5
His early research culminated in obtaining Hashirama Senju’s Sage Body. The resulting increase in Chakra and talent convinced him that exceptional innate ability was essential to reaching the highest levels of strength. His Cheat System subsequently assigned him research involving Uzumaki genetics and the construction of his own laboratory. 6
After becoming a rogue ninja, Kenichi operated across the Ninja World under disguises such as a merchant. He joined Orochimaru in Akatsuki, where Nagato tested his abilities and recruited him after witnessing his spontaneous Sage Mode. 47 50 53
Kenichi expanded his work beyond Ninjutsu, combining Chakra with explosives, puppetry, agriculture, genetics, artificial intelligence, cloning, and transportation technology. His collaborations with Sasori and Amado Sanzu became central to this work, while his access to Akatsuki resources enabled increasingly large-scale projects. 53 66 241
He eventually used military power, political maneuvering, and scientific infrastructure to unify the Ninja World under the Yan Nation. As its leader, he replaced the former Daimyo order, appointed former Kage to administrative posts, and pursued a society shaped by technology, mass education, and widespread access to ninja abilities. 499 512 788
Later, Kenichi’s focus shifted toward the Ōtsutsuki Clan, Chakra Fruits, time, space, and interdimensional travel. He infiltrated Ōtsutsuki society by passing as one of their own, gained access to Isshiki Ōtsutsuki’s former laboratory, and used the clan’s resources to continue researching Four-Dimensional Space. 803 822
Personality
Kenichi is intensely curious, pragmatic, and willing to pursue dangerous research personally when no substitute exists. He approaches combat, politics, and human relationships as problems to be understood and used, often gathering information through experimentation, deception, or calculated alliances. 50 130 349
His scientific fixation can make him ruthless. He has considered using criminals as sacrifices, conducted invasive experiments on unwilling subjects, controlled people through Genjutsu, and treated powerful individuals as potential research material. 47 227 687 803
However, he is not uniformly callous. He helped Koyuki Kazahana pursue revenge against her brother, remained in the Land of Snow to protect her position, aided Amado in reviving Akebi, and trained Naruto and Sasuke with the intention of changing their futures. 246 254 344 577
Abilities & Skills
Sage Body and Sage Mode
Hashirama Senju’s Sage Body gives Kenichi exceptional Chakra reserves, talent, and an unusually natural affinity for Natural Energy. He can enter Sage Mode quickly and without the bodily mutation normally associated with excessive Natural Energy absorption. 6 50

- Documented Amado’s successful use of One’s Own Life Reincarnation on Akebi, then revived Amado with Impure World Reincarnation after he died. 344
- Uses Samehada and reanimated Jonin as part of high-speed Chakra extraction and compression experiments. 527
Time and Space Manipulation
Kenichi’s later research allows him to perceive, capture, and integrate time-related entities into his own Chakra. 683 740
- Observed silver microscopic entities he believed to be time itself; they can slow time and rapidly decay organic matter. 683
- Compressed Time Energy into his body, dramatically slowing his metabolism and extending his lifespan. 740
- Eventually fused time, space, Natural Energy, and Chakra into Space-Time Natural Energy Chakra. 859
