Shin Uchiha

Shin served as a test subject for many of Orochimaru's crazy experiments and was once one of his devotees. Shin's special genetic makeup made it possible for him to undertake organ and tissue transplants without worrying about recipient rejection. He spent a lot of time with Orochimaru, and they did a lot of studies to find out the mysteries of genetics. When Shin left Orochimaru's side, he took most of the clones he had created using his teeth and nerves.

At some point during his time with Orochimaru, Shin developed a deep interest in the UchihaClan and began to look up to Itachi Uchiha, a well-known and renowned member of the clan. He became so fixated on the clan that he began to imitate them, taking their surname and dressing in their distinctive clothing.

Even more, he had several Sharingan implants throughout his body. His right arm was taken by Orochimaru, who implanted it with numerous Sharingans. He later implanted some of Hashirama's cells along with that right arm to Danzo Shimura, a Hidden Leaf Village higher up and Orochimaru’s accomplice. Shortly after this incident, Shin and the majority of his clones abandoned Orochimaru's side.

The majority of Shin's early years were spent with Orochimaru. He was essentially raised by him, which left him with a somewhat limited understanding of the world and a twisted personality. Despite being an expert in many scientific evolutions, he was a firm supporter of the notion of "Survival of the Fittest." According to him, an organism's lifespan has just two goals: to live and pass its genes to the following generation's offspring.

He was strongly in favor of natural selection and from his perspective, the evolution of the human race was significantly influenced by conflicts and chaos. He despised peace and wished to put an end to this time of tranquility as times of peace gave birth to weaklings, which will essentially cause the demise of the species at some point. To give rise to a stronger generation, Shin set out on a path to revive the Akatsuki and bring chaos to the world and end the peaceful era they were living in.

Shin admired Itachi and harbored ill will against Sasuke Uchiha for murdering Itachi. Sasuke, in his opinion, represented the clan's disgrace and was a stain on the prestigious Uchiha name. To avenge Itachi, he desired to murder Sasuke and in an attempt to catch Sasuke, he tried to kidnapped Sarada Uchiha, Sasuke’s daughter.

Even though he never displayed any affectionate parental behavior toward them, Shin would refer to all of his clones as his sons. He even went as far as to use them as nothing more than tools in his conquest and was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice if necessary. After his first battle against Sasuke and the Seventh Hokage of the Hidden Lead Village, Naruto Uzumaki, Shin operated on himself and used one of his clones as a mere organ donor.

When Shin was trying to flee from Sasuke and Naruto, he tried kidnapping Sarada. His plans were ruined when Sakura pushed Sarada away from harm's way and was teleported with him instead of Sarada. At first, he kept Sakura captive while he performed surgery on himself.

As it turned out, Sakura was just playing along to get intel out of Shin. Shin and Sakura then engaged in a battle, in which Sakura had somewhat of an upper hand. Shin managed to get an advantage and was about to land a fatal blow when Sasuke interfered and saved Sakura.

In his final fight, he found himself defeated at the hands of Sasuke and realized he needed to flee and regroup. To give himself the chance to retreat, he summoned his clones to attack Sasuke. He was caught off guard when his clone unexpectedly stabbed him.

Ironically, his clones concluded Shin was not powerful enough to lead them because they too believed in the theory of the survival of the fittest. Without Shin's awareness, they began cloning themselves to destroy him. As a result of the wounds he sustained from his own clones, he ultimately fell into the hands of death.

One of Shin’s clones attacked Naruto and stabbed him when he had his guard down and was afraid when he became aware of Kurama’s existence within Naruto. Kurama was furious but Naruto calmed him down. Naruto then took all the clones under his care and admitted them to an orphanage, run by Kabuto Yakushi.

Shin spent his early years with Orochimaru and was practically raised by him. Being cooped up with Orochimaru in his labs shortened Shin’s range of perspective on the world they lived in. Even though he was a scientist excelling in the advanced field of medicine and technology, he still lived on principles of the long-gone era of conflict and the basic nature of animals.

He was a firm believer in natural selection and survival of the fittest. He believed that peace was a disease that eats a species from the inside out. According to him, chaos and conflict are the essential elements that play an important role in the evolution of the species which makes them grow stronger.

Shin can be called somewhat of a hypocrite character in the series. Even though he believed in natural selection, he would use medical enhancements to survive and grow stronger. He believed in the survival of the fittest, but he would often rely on his clones. He referred to his clones as his sons but would sacrifice them without a second thought if that meant he could survive.

Shin was obsessed with the legendary Uchiha clan and would dress in their traditional attire and went as far as to adopt the renowned Uchiha surname. He admired Itachi Uchiha and despised Sasuke for murdering his elder brother. He considered Sasuke the shame of the Uchiha clan. He wanted to eliminate Sasuke and avenge Itachi.

Even though he considered himself a man of discipline who was working towards the evolution of humankind, he would often use underhanded tactics in battle. He tried capturing Sarada to draw Sasuke in a corner. He even attacked Sarada to exploit Sasuke’s fatherly affection towards her and forced him to save her from the attack using his body as a shield.

Shin was a tall, athletic man with no hair, pale skin, and a horizontal scar that stretched from the bridge of his nose to his right temple. His right arm had been severed up to the bicep, and he was also missing all of his teeth because he had utilized them all in his cloning experiments.

He had multiple Sharingan implants all over his body, including five along the back of his left forearm, one on the back of his left hand, one in each of his eye sockets, three on top of his head, one on each shoulder, one on each pectoral, and one on each tricep. Eight sutures kept his right eyelids open, and the Sharingan inside was visibly bloodshot with a blackened sclera.

Shin had a mark on the palm of his left hand, which he used to mark tools that he could control with his Mangekyo Sharingan’s ability. The surgery he performed on himself after sustaining damage from Sakura’s blow left a scar of a large incision which was stapped on his stomach. During his final fight with Sasuke, Shin's left leg was also amputated below the knee in the anime.

Shin fashioned typical Uchiha attire, a long-necked cloak with a red cloud on its front and back, paired with dark pants and standard black sandals. This cloak was a mash-up of traditional Uchiha attire and the cloak worn by members of the Akatsuki.

Shin was extremely resilient and persistent. He was strong enough to fight Sakura Uchiha and survive one of her blows, which had immense strength and could break boulders. Then, while talking to her, he seemed to have undergone transplant surgery, operating on himself.

He was able to embed many Sharingan eyeballs throughout his body and activate them for as long as he pleased, thanks to his special genetic structure. He had such a creature that had a Sharingan in his possession. Shin expanded his area of vision by connecting his vision to that creature. In addition to that, that creature also possessed the ability to use Space-Time Ninjutsu, which allowed Shin to teleport at will.

In his right eye, Shin also possessed the Mangekyo Sharingan and it is still unknown how he was able to awaken it. He was privy to the abilities of a standard Sharingan and also possessed a special ability unique to his Mangekyo Sharingan. Shin was able to entirely control any tool that he had marked with his left-hand, thanks to the special ability of his Mangekyo.

Shin was a master of Medical Ninjutsu and was well-versed in human anatomy. He performed transplant surgery on himself and talked to Sakura the entire while he was doing so in order to demonstrate his Medical Ninjutsu skills.

Shin plays a significant role in the Naruto series' novels and video games, in addition to the manga and anime adaptations. In the publication of Naruto Shinden: Parent and Child Day, Shin had his first literary mention in the novel category. With Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Online, Shin Uchiha made his video game debut and is a playable character in the game.
