Sasuke Uchiha is known as the Shadow Hokage of the Hidden Leaf. Given the title by the villagers for his incredible efforts to keep the peace in the village, the character has been a fan favorite since Narutodebut.
It would be remiss not to mention that Sasuke would never have reached such heights if he wasn't strong enough, as most of his missions involved venturing outside of the Hidden Leaf and stopping dangerous enemies in their tracks. Fortunately, Sasuke had the right tools to stop his enemies and keep the village safe, with many of his abilities simply too strong to resist.
Naruto: The 8 Rarest Abilities in the Series, Ranked
The Naruto series is full of powerful characters, but some bring particularly unique and memorable abilities to the table.
Amenotejikara allows Sasuke to teleport
Amenotejikara is a space-time ninjutsu that is unique to Sasuke's Rinnegan. The Uchiha received the Dojutsu in the Fourth Great Ninja War and it didn't take long for him to master it. Fighting opponents the caliber of Madara and then Kaguya, it's understandable that Sasuke had to get the hang of his abilities quickly, one of which was Amenotejikara.
This ability allows the user to instantly switch places with any other object or person, and Sasuke can use this power in many different ways. For example, he can either prepare surprise attacks or dodge incoming strikes. Since gaining this power, Sasuke has tricked his enemies several times, helping him turn the tide in his favor.
Susanoo protects Sasuke from attacks
Susanoo is a giant humanoid that consists of chakra. As it is a powerful technique, Susanoo can only be used by those who have the Mangekyou Sharingan in both eyes. Since Sasuke falls into the bracket, he is also able to use Susanoo.
Sasuke has large reserves of chakra, so he has no problem summoning a full body Susanoo at will. The giant structure protects Sasuke from most attacks while allowing him to retaliate. Sasuke's Susanoo can also fire massive arrows that can easily pierce even the thickest armor.
Naruto: The 44 Strongest Jutsu in the Series, Ranked
Jutsu is a big part of the Naruto series. These are the absolute strongest in the series, ranked.
Amaterasu can burn anything in her path
The first user of Amaterasu was Itachi Uchiha, who used it to fight Sasuke. Unfortunately, Itachi lost his life, but the power was transferred to Sasuke's Mangekyou Sharingan. Unlike his older brother, Sasuke is able to control Amaterasu and transform him in any way he sees fit.
In the Fourth Great Ninja War, Sasuke consistently manipulated Amaterasu to create things like Susanoo arrows that burned the target on contact. Sasuke didn't stop there though. He even infused the black flames with other attacks like the Chidori and even Naruto's Rasenshuriken to increase their overall destructive power.
Indra's arrow can destroy most opponents
Throughout the story, Sasuke had to fight many incredibly powerful characters, and without any particularly powerful attacks, he would never have been able to find victory. As the series continued, Sasuke kept coming up with new powerful abilities and reached the peak of his power towards the end.
Sasuke eventually developed an attack called Indra's Arrow. To create the arrow, Sasuke absorbed the chakra of the tailed beasts. He then shaped it into an arrow form before releasing it with his Susanoo. This powerful attack was strong enough to nullify Naruto's most terrifying move.

The Rinnegan can stop anyone in their tracks
The Rinnegan is the strongest dojutsu in the Naruto. Most ninja can only dream of getting the Rinnegan as it requires one to have the Mangekyo Sharingan and Hashirama's DNA. However, Sasuke was spared the trouble as Hagoromo granted him some of his power, allowing the Uchiha to awaken the Rinnegan.
Sasuke's Rinnegan is different from the others because it has six tomoe. However, its functions are the same. Sasuke has access to all six paths of the Rinnegan: Deva Path, Preta Path, Human Path, Animal Path, Asura Path, and Naraka Path. He can also use Chibaku Tensei to stop his enemies in their tracks. Additionally, he can absorb incoming attacks and use chakra to enhance the power of his own moves. Sasuke's unique Rinnegan also allows him to cast powerful Genjutsu that can capture even tailed beasts.
The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan gives Sasuke special abilities
Sasuke is one of two Uchiha who possess the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. This alone gave him a significant advantage over his enemies as he no longer had to worry about the limitations of the Mangekyou Sharingan. This special eye prowess allowed Sasuke to use Amaterasu as much as he wanted.
Because of this, he could spam the move multiple times without having to worry about chakra draining or blinding. The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan drastically reduced his chakra consumption, allowing Sasuke to use his special abilities without issue.
High intelligence makes Sasuke invincible
While not an ability per se, it would be unwise not to include Sasuke's intelligence as one of his greatest strengths. The Uchiha displayed a high battle IQ from a young age, allowing him to fight and conquer his enemies without breaking a sweat. Sasuke's ability to think on his feet saved him from potentially fatal attacks.
For example, the character called out to Manda to avoid being hit by Deidar's bomb. Sasuke immediately realized that he could end up caught in an explosion that could potentially kill him. So he called Mandu and let him bear the brunt of the explosion. Cases like these prove that Sasuke is almost always one step ahead of the competition.
