**Ryun Uchiha** (うちは りゅん, *Uchiha Ryun*), renowned across the shinobi world as **Konoha's White Flame** (木ノ葉の白い炎, *Konoha no Shiroi Hono*), is a jōnin of Konohagakure's Uchiha clan and the great-grandson of the village's legendary founder Madara Uchiha. As a jōnin, he was the assigned leader of Team 10 until all of his students were promoted to chūnin. Ryun serves as the main protagonist of the tenth universe.

## Personality

Since his youth, Ryun Uchiha has been characterized by his extreme independence and serene demeanor. In his childhood, he was possessed of a self-confidence that bordered on arrogance, bolstered by his possession of the Sharingan, which he believed gave him an advantage over his peers. His ego was unaided by his early graduation from Konohagakure's shinobi academy, nor did his well-known relation to the village founder and First Hokage, Madara Uchiha. His classmates gave him the nickname "Honorable Great Grandson" (偉大な孫様, *Idaina Omago-sama*) for the latter, a name he took pride in throughout most of his upbringing.

Around the time of the Chūnin Exams, Ryun's arrogance and ego were mellowed by his confrontation with Seireitō Hyūga: an Otogakure plant disguised as a Konoha genin. Seireitō's lack of connection to a powerful ancestor and possession of a potent Byakugan taught Ryun that power could be achieved through intense training. Though their match ended in a draw, the two recognized each other's strength and became fierce rivals, giving birth to a desire in Ryun to amass more strength in order to surpass Seireitō and crush Otogakure.

## Appearance

Ryun is a tall man of fair complexion. Like many members of his clan, he has black hair, which he wears in an unkempt, low ponytail, and black eyes. His wardrobe greatly resembles the attire frequently worn by members of the Uchiha clan during the Warring States Period: a high-collared, long bell-sleeved mantle that splits down the middle and features the Uchiha clan crest emblazoned on the back; it also features black pants, black shinobi sandals with a white cloth riding up his shins, and a wide sash across his middle-section, on the back of which he wears the pouch that contains most of his ninja tools.

Uniquely, though a loyal Konohagakure shinobi, Ryun is not commonly seen wearing his village headband. He often simply carries it underneath the sash on his waist, believing the emblem of the Uchiha clan to be enough to identify him as belonging to the Leaf Village.

## Abilities

### Chakra and Physical Prowess

Ryun has a large and potent volume of chakra, in part due to being the great-grandson of Madara Uchiha. Seen with the Sharingan or the Byakugan, his chakra is uniquely colored white. Thanks to the sheer volume of his chakra, he is capable of performing a number of large, chakra-taxing techniques. By adulthood, his chakra was vast enough to permit him use of the Many Hidden Shadow Snake Clones technique, which he can use seemingly wihtout immediately tiring. His excellent control of his chakra, producing very little waste, is also attributed to the number of techniques he has accrued and the finesse at which he can deploy them in nearly any situation. Control and management are also the reasons why he can maintain his Sharingan for seemingly indefinite periods of time without tiring.

### Ninjutsu

As a member of the Uchiha clan, whose Sharingan permits him to copy techniques, Ryun has amassed a sizable volume of techniques and invented some of his own. Having trained at the Ryūchi Cave, Ryun has gained the ability to use the Summoning Technique and made a contract with the summoning snakes there. His personal summon is Kagashi, a female basilisk who has sworn her allegiance to him. He can also summon other snakes to aid in combat or to help him gather senjutsu chakra, or smaller snakes to use the Hidden Shadow Snake Clone technique.

#### Kenjutsu

Ryun is uniquely skilled among the Uchiha clan for his swordsmanship. Whereas most of his clan preferred the use of war fans and *tantō*, Ryun utilizes a grey katana (white when he was a chūnin), keeping it strapped to his back or simply carrying it with him wherever he goes. He can incorporate his ninjutsu into his swordsmanship style, mastering chakra flow to infuse his blade with either his fire or lightning chakra natures. He can also incorporate it into his senjutsu, using the fighting styles taught to him at the Ryūchi Cave to extend the reach of his blade via natural energy.

#### Nature Transformation

Ryun's natural affinity is Earth Release, though he has matching skills with Fire Release due to being born and trained a member of the Uchiha clan. Upon awakening the Sharingan and its genjutsu capabilities, he learned to perform Yin Release, and later added lightning to his repertoire as he matured as a shinobi.

One of the earliest techniques he learned was the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, a coming of age rite of the Uchiha clan, and has obtained vast proficiency in using it as he moved up the ranks of Konohagakure. He has also mastered the art of converting his chakra into superheated ash, a rare art among members of his clan.

### Dōjutsu

#### Sharingan

Ryun's Sharingan is said to be potent, a likely result of being the great-grandson of Madara Uchiha. Like many Konoha shinobi who master the dōjutsu, he obtained the moniker **Ryun of the Sharingan** (写輪眼のりゅん, *Sharingan no Ryun*) for his proficiency at wielding his clan's unique ocular abilities. His Sharingan is said to have matured to a full three tomoe state at a young age, and he regularly keeps it activated at all times, even when he is not in combat.

Like all Uchiha who awaken the clan's kekkei genkai, Ryun is proficient with the standard Sharingan genjutsu. He has also created variants of his own that induce full-body paralysis—or, in rare circumstances, even death—in those who merely make eye-contact with him.

#### Mangekyō Sharingan

Through yet unknown means, Ryun also awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. The pattern of his Mangekyō Sharingan is a more complex version of the standard Sharingan, retaining the three-tomoe design, and strongly resembles his great-grandfather's Mangekyō pattern.

In his right eye, Ryun awakened the dōjutsu Amenouzume, a powerful genjutsu capable of hypnotizing its victims by showing them what they desire the most. While his target is under the effects of the genjutsu, Ryun can control them to a limited extent. Meanwhile, in his left eye, Ryun awakened Sarutahiko, an equally powerful ninjutsu that creates white flames instead of the black flames of Amaterasu. A rival technique, Sarutahiko is known as the "confining flames" (監禁の火, *kankin no hi*), creating a powerful white blaze around the target that will burn indefinitely and consume all who touch them unless Ryun himself extinguishes the flames. Even the black flames of Amaterasu cannot burn their way out of the blazing prison.

Having awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in both eyes, Ryun was also capable of manifesting the third power: Susanoo. Ryun's Susanoo appears to be skeletal and features two enormous horns that curve outward from either side of its skull. Susanoo was not just the most powerful Mangekyō Sharingan dōjutsu, it was also the technique Ryun became most proficient in. The chakra avatar Ryun creates with Susanoo is uniquely wreathed in white flames, similar to the flames created by Sarutahiko. This property earned Ryun the nickname **Konoha's White Flame**. Ryun also appears to be able to freely control the form his Susanoo takes and often will use partial manifestations in combat.

### Senjutsu

At some point, Ryun trained at the Ryūchi Cave in order to learn senjutsu. Thanks to his massive reserves of chakra and his mastery of the Sharingan, he was capable of passing the three trails posed by the snakes and was taught to perform Sage Mode. His snake sage chakra naturally boosts his body's regenerative capabilities and served as a solution to the primary drawback of his Mangekyō Sharingan: healing the blindness brought upon by repeated uses.

## Reception

Like Seireitou Hyūga, the character of Ryun Uchiha was created in 2008 by the author (then known as **Ten Tailed Fox**) when they were 15 years-old on the Naruto Fanon Wiki. Much like Seireitou, the character attracted a lot of attention from the *Naruto* fandom for being a Gary Stu: a type of character that was stronger and more perfect than the characters commonly found throughout the canon universe. Despite receiving less notoriety than Seireitou, due to the latter's more exuberant reputation, Ryun was still frequently mistaken for an actual canon *Naruto* character by fans of the franchise.

## Trivia

* Ryun Uchiha is a loose reincarnation of a character by the same name, the previous iteration of the author's main *Naruto* character first created in 2008.
* Ryun's artwork was commissioned by the author from naoreo and Antonio Malara.
