  • Sasuke Mastered His Powers Slowly

Throughout Naruto, Sasuke’s path was perpetually challenging, yet fans watched as he soared to remarkable heights. Equipped with the Sharingan, Sasuke pushed his eye’s potential to its extreme and, following his decisive battle against his brother, activated the Mangekyo Sharingan. Later on, he transplanted his brother’s eyes, unlocking the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, further enhancing his power. By this point in the story, the Fourth Great Ninja War was underway, and Sasuke had already ascended to a lofty position. Yet, his peak strength still lay ahead.

Unlike last time, I’ll grant each reincarnation half of my power. — Hagoromo Otsutsuki

At that point in time, Sasuke was clearly not as powerful as Madara Uchiha or Hashirama Senju, and he nearly met his end at Madara’s hands. However, everything changed for him when he encountered the Sage of Six Paths. It was revealed to Sasuke that he was the reincarnation of Indra, which granted him a portion of Hagoromo’s power. This revelation ultimately triggered the emergence of the Rinnegan in his left eye, transforming him into a formidable opponent and bestowing upon him the most significant power he has yet displayed in the story.

At first, Sasuke’s mastery over the Rinnegan wasn’t as proficient as Madara’s. Madara’s advantage was further enhanced due to his status as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, and this became more pronounced after he absorbed the God Tree. Yet, Sasuke was gradually getting better at managing the Rinnegan. In their brief clash, Sasuke successfully split Madara Uchiha in two and even dominated him during combat.

I’m the strongest in the world right now. Once I’m done with you, it’s over. — Sasuke Uchiha

In due course, Sasuke engaged an exceptionally powerful foe named Kaguya Otsutsuki, contributing significantly to her defeat. To add to this, these events unfolded at a time when Sasuke was still adapting to the Rinnegan’s capabilities. In his confrontation with Naruto, Sasuke admitted that it was then he had begun to adapt more effectively to the Rinnegan. Not only did he match Naruto’s pace but also frequently outmaneuvered him.

Sasuke’s Peak In The Story

In time, Sasuke significantly increased his strength, as evident when Naruto experienced a massive power boost post-war due to acquiring the second half of Kurama. By maturity, it’s reported that Sasuke and Naruto were evenly matched in terms of power. During adulthood, Sasuke was observed effortlessly battling Kinshiki Otsutsuki, and later overpowering the fused-Momoshiki despite being weakened due to transporting 8-9 individuals to another dimension. At his peak, Sasuke surpassed Madara Uchiha in strength, earning him the title of the strongest Uchiha in the clan’s entire history.
