Sharingan The Sharingan is a special eye power that exists within the Uchiha clan. It is considered one of the three great eye techniques, along with the Byakugan and Rinnegan. The Sharingan provides two main abilities: the Eye of Insight, which allows the user to see and understand things more clearly, and the Eye of Hypnotism, which allows the user to manipulate and control others. These abilities can be further enhanced with both eyes together. Additionally, there are two advanced jutsu associated with the Sharingan: Izanagi, which can alter reality temporarily, and Izanami, which traps the target in an endless loop. However, using these jutsu comes at a cost, as it leads to the blindness of the Sharingan.

He could sew up injuries and reattach body parts, even nerves and muscles, allowing instant movement.

Kakuzu could combine their attacks by forming a spider-like body around himself. Each mask contained a spare heart, and when he used a heart, the correspondi
