Sharingan • 写輪眼
The Sharingan is the Bloodline Limit of the Uchiha Clan. It is not awakened by the user by birth, and is usually done so due to an emotional or stressful situation.
For Sasuke, it was defending his teammate, Naruto, from being impaled by too many Senbon needles. Well, that was to his understanding, the first time he had awakened it. In actuality, Sasuke awoke his Sharingan during the night of the Uchiha Massacre. However, due to what is to be believed the usage of Itachi's Mangekyou and the stress of that night, Sasuke completely repressed memory of that moment.
The Sharingan's ability are, to put it bluntly, the following:
• Being able to see the flow and "color" of chakra
• Able to tell the difference between reality and genjutsu, and if another person has been affected by genjutsu by their chakra flow
• Able to pick up even the smallest details, such as pencil movements or lip movements
• Depending on the number of tomoe the user has, it can predict quick movements
• Capable of allowing the user to quickly memorize jutsus that have been witnessed, save for other bloodline limits.
• Also allows the user to memorize ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu, and use them how they see fit (i.e.: Sasuke's Shishi Rendan, Lee's Konoha Senpuu, etc.)
• Capable of casting hypnosis on someone to be able to suggest thoughts and actions to them via simple eye contact.
Continued usage of the Sharingan over a period of time starts to deteriorates the user's eye sight, and only accelerates it if the user possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan. At the moment, Sasuke isn't even aware that he possesses the abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan, and unless proven otherwise, he'll never find out.
→ genjutsu
Magen · Kasegui no Jutsu • 魔幻・縛杭
Using the Sharingan, the opponent is trapped in a world created by the user, and is tortured with the feeling of having been driven through multiple spikes through their limbs, taking away their movement.
→ taijutsu
Hayabusa Otoshi • ハヤブサ落とし
While above his opponent at an elevated position, Sasuke grabs his opponent from behind, firmly locking himself to their back while his ankles lock just above their neck. Then, both Sasuke and his opponent go crashing down - opponent head first - to the ground. Can be potentially deadly, and more often than not concussion-inducing.
Shishi Rendan • 獅子連弾
A variant of Rock Lee's Frontal Lotus. Uses extensive speed get underneath an opponent to kick them into the air. Then, Sasuke uses the Shadow of the Dancing Leaf technique to get underneath the airborne opponent. That's where the similarities between Lee's Lotus and Sasuke's Shishi Rendan end. Because when Sasuke fought Lee, the Lotus went unfinished, Sasuke made the rest of it up, first by using a feint that is easily blocked if he is unable to make a clean blow. Otherwise, it's just a series of various kicks in no specific order that result with the opponent being violently knocked to the ground by a kick to the chest.
It's Sasuke most famous technique, but because of the toll it takes on his body with the final blow more times than not being right above solid ground, he doesn't use it very often.
→ ninjutsu
"Body Shedding" • Can no longer use.
With Orochimaru absorbed, and after sustaining massive injury or to escape an attack such as Amaterasu, Sasuke can "shed" the damaged body much like a snake sheds its skin. He then appears to be completely unharmed - no injuries, not even loss of clothes. However, this technique requires a vast amount of chakra to use.
Bunshin no Jutsu • 分身の術
Basic technique learned by everyone that goes through Konoha's Ninja Academy. Creates an illusionary double of the user. Usually is dispelled when the clone comes into contact with someone or something.
Chidori • 千鳥 •
Taught to by Kakashi. Draws chakra into the left hand, and the amount is so great that it becomes visible to the naked eye. The high concentration of lightning-based energy gives off the sound of a thousand birds chirping, hence the name "chidori." Sasuke uses both his Sharingan and speed in order to charge at the opponent - in a straight line - and should the attack hit, it's a fatal one. During his fight with Itachi, Sasuke practically knocked out an entire wall and floor to one of the hotel rooms with his chidori.
However, since Chidori consumes a large amount of chakra from its user. It is unknown what Sasuke's limit for chidori is at this time. Furthermore, using too much chakra with the attack has been known to peel of a layer of skin from Sasuke's hand and, though rarely, cause burns.
Chidori Eisou • 千鳥鋭槍 •
Variant of Chidori. Sasuke takes his chidori and manipulates its shape into a blade, and has a maximum range of 10 meters. While it's less powerful when compared to an ordinary chidori, it also has less risk on its user. It also has the ability have multiple other blades branch off from the main blade, like a tree, in order to assist with capture.
Chidori Nagashi • 千鳥流し •
Variant of Chidori. Instead of using his hand as a release for chidori, Sasuke uses his entire body as a medium for the electrical discharge. This allows him to be able to hit more than one enemy had a time, and don't require him to move. While not as strong as his canon's counter-part's, it can still give off the feeling of being hit by lightning and mess with the body's electrical system.
Sasuke can use this - as long as he does not use any other variants - six times a day. He can also channel this chidori through his sword and has been known to do so in order to strengthen weaker, more flimsy blades.
Chidori Senbon • 千鳥千本 •
Variant of Chidori. Specialized more in speed, this chidori variant takes the shape of a senbon needles. By increasing the amount of chakra as well, the number of needles is also increased. Doubled with the Sharingan, Sasuke can easily aim his needles for any vital points.
Henge no Jutsu • 変化の術
Basic academy-level ninjutsu. User gathers chakra and transforms themselves into either another person or an object. It can only be seen through by the Byakuygan and Sharingan.
Jagei Jubaku • 蛇睨呪縛 • Can no longer use.
User summons snakes from their sleves and wraps them around their opponent(s). Coupled with a murderous intent, it can serevrely weaken the opponent's resolve. The snakes can either poison, constrict, or simply capture the opponent.
Because Sasuke no longer possess his curse seal, and Manda's death, Sasuke is no longer able to use this technique.
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu • 影分身の術
Like the Bunshin no Jutsu, it creates a duplicate of the user. However, unlike the ordinary Bunshin no Jutsu, these clones are solid. Because of that, they take up much more chakra. They are dispelled whenever hit, and can transfer information from the clone to the original once a clone is either forcefully dismissed or dismissed by the user. Additionally, because of this, it also benefits the user to use shadow clones while training.
Kage Shuriken no Jutsu • 影手裏剣の術
Uses a Fuuma Shuriken, two Fuuma Shuriken are thrown at the opponent in succession, one slightly below the other to give off the illusion that only one was thrown. When and if the first is dodged, the second can take advantace of the opponent's momentary surprise.
Katon · Goukakyuu no Jutsu • 火遁・豪火球の術 •
The most basic fire ninjutsu there is. Sasuke learned it at the age of seven, to show that he had "come of age," and was worthy to be Uchiha Fugaku's son. Sasuke converts his chakra into fire, gathering it in his chest. The intensity of the fireball is controlled by the amount of chakra used before being released through the mouth. Usually, Sasuke uses a ring from his fingers as a guide, but he has been known to use this jutsu without it; same can be said of Itachi as well.
Katon · Gouryuuka no Jutsu • 火遁・豪龍火の術 •
Just like with Goukakyuu, Sasuke gathers a large amount of chakra within his chest, but instead of just releasing a big, giant round fireball, it's manipulated to the the shape of a dragon's head. It's very powerful, as the flames have a very high temperature, and has the capability to draw thunder clouds.
At the moment, Sasuke can only perform this technique once successfully.
Katon · Housenka no Jutsu • 火遁・鳳仙火の術 •
Basically a smaller, more numerical version of Goukakyu. Shuriken can also be inserted into the smaller fireballs as a secondary surprise attack. More often than not, these smaller fireballs go off wildly in any direction, making dodging them a little more difficult.
Katon · Ryuuka no Jutsu • 火遁・龍火の術 •
With the aid of wire to trap his opponent to use as a guide, Sasuke uses this technique as a type of missile or other projectile weapon to attack the opponent's upper body. Once released, the jutsu takes the form of a dragon as it descends upon its victim.
Kawarimi no Jutsu • 変わり身の術
Basic ninjutsu. User uses a near-by object or even an innocent bystander to take their place. Allows for the user to either hide or escape.
Kirin • 麒麟 •
This is a one-shot jutsu. Sasuke uses this technique by directly drawing lightning from thunderclouds with his chidori to strengthen the attack while, at the same time, controlling it with his chakra. Because it uses natural lightning, it moves at the speed of light, making it completely impossible to avoid. However, on a clear day, this technique requires preparation via the Gouryuuka no Jutsu technique, which can easily weaken the use due to the amouse of chakra it uses, and thuse weakening Kirin. However, once there are storm clouds, manipulating its shape and guiding it is an easy task. This technique is capable of wiping out an entire mountain.
Kuchiyose no Jutsu • 口寄せの術
A technique that can summon an animal - such as a snake, dog, toad, turtle - that the uses has a contract with. This technique is totally dependant on the amount of chakra that the user uses during a summon. For example, if Sasuke only uses a little chakra, he would only receive a little snake in return. If he used a vast amount of chakra, he would get a giant snake, or even Manda.
Kuchiyose · Raikou Kenka • 口寄せ・雷光剣化
A summoning technique that allows the users to seal tools - such as kunai, shuriken, fuuma shuriken, and even swords - into clothes or a scroll. This allows them to be called upon when needed, and the tools can be summoned upon a single touch. The greatest advantage to this technique is that time between drawing a weapon and preparing it is greatly
Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Chidorigatana • 草薙の剣・千鳥刀 •
Sasuke simply runs his chidori through his blade, both sharpening it and, once it has pierced an enemy, can temporarily render them both numb and immobile.
Nawanuke no Jutsu • 縄抜けの術
Very basic jutsu that allows the user to escape from rope bindings.
Sharingan Soufuusha Sannotachi • 操風車三ノ大刀
Utilizing the Sharingan, the user sends three Fuuma Shuriken with attached wire that are used to manipulate the shuriken to surround the opponent, easily tying them up with the wire.
Shunshin no Jutsu • 瞬身の術
Considered to be a basic ninjutsu. The user uses his speed to move a large distance in a short period of time., often times it's not even noticable by the naked eye.
Soushuriken no Jutsu • 操手裏剣の術
A durable wire is attached to shuriken , making it possible to alter its path after it's been thrown. Once the opponent dodges, the user waits long enough to pull the shuriken back in order to take them by surprise. Essentially, it's just like Sharingan Soufuusha Sannotachi, just with two fuuma shuriken.
→ kinjutsu
Cursed Seal of Heaven • 天の呪印 • Can no longer use.
Given to by Orochimaru. It is apparently the strongest cursed seal, and chances of survival are 10% after receiving the seal. Like a fuller matured Sharingan, it consists of three tomoe. When activated, the tomoe spread over the user's body and take on an appearance of flames.
The seal, when activated, forces the user's body to use more chakra, which obviously puts a strain on the body. Continued usage, over time, will cause the user to lose their free will, and once that happens, the user is nothing more than one of Orochimaru's puppets. In Sasuke's case, his new body.
At this time, of the two levels that can be achieved through the cursed seal, Sasuke can only achieve Level One. This gives him enhanced power and chakra levels for a time, and the seal is only able to spread itself across his skin slowly, as opposed to quickly with a Level Two.
In order to keep the Cursed Seal in check, Kakashi placed a seal on it. This seal - called "Evil Suppression" - reacts to only Sasuke's will. If he wants to use the Cursed Seal willingly, it will not interfere. If he does not, then it will kick it and keep the Cursed Seal from taking over, unless Sasuke has tried to use too much of his chakra at once, and at which case, the Cursed Seal will activate anyway, and render Sasuke incapable of defending himself, and at times has been known to render Sasuke pretty much completely immobile as well.
During his fight with Itachi, Sasuke had used up all of his chakra - even the chakra he used to suppress Orochimaru - and because of that, Orochimaru used Sasuke as a vassle in order to "revive" himself. Itachi, using Susano'o's Sakegari no Tachi, sealed Orochimaru, soul and all. When he did this, he freed Sasuke completely from the cured seal.
