'''During his time as a Konoha ninja, Obito's abilities were average at best, struggling to match his classmates from the Academy. Determined to improve himself, he trained for several months at a time and eventually became a chūnin. Madara saw great potential in Obito and thus selected him as his disciple.[46]  Madara's hopes were proven correct, as under his tutelage, Obito dramatically improved his abilities as a late bloomer, becoming a mirror image of Madara in his prime. At age 14, Obito posed a challenge to the Fourth Hokage and nearly destroyed Konoha. As an adult, he defeated two of the most skilled ninja in Root, killed Konan (an S-rank kunoichi), and held his own in a one-on-four fight with Naruto, Killer B, Guy, and Kakashi (two perfect jinchūriki and two experienced jōnin).  ===Chakra and Physical Prowess  Edit'''=== Obito's chakra reserves were enhanced by the White Zetsu matter equipped to his body, enabling him to perform several chakra-taxing techniques without noticeable exhaustion.[47] [48]  He showed the ability to absorb chakra,[49]  as well as transfer his own to another person.[50] [51]  Obito was proficient in taijutsu as he fought on par with Kakashi on several occasions, while controlling the outcome of their last fight.[52] [53]  His physical strength and speed were great enough to lift Konan by her throat with one hand while gravely injured,[54]  and keep up with Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.[55]  ====Body Modifications  Edit==== Obito's body modifications. '''The right side of Obito's body was badly damaged during the mission in Kusagakure, and he even lost his right arm. To heal his body and replace the limb, Madara outfitted Obito with the same substance that the White Zetsu are made of,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-rehabilitation_55-0">[56]  enhancing his chakra reserves and eventually allowing him to perform Wood Release. He also gains certain physical augmentations of Hashirama Senju's DNA, such as great durability to attacks, rapid healing,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-56">[57]  and the ability to survive without food or water. His artificial limb is very strong, able to withstand an attack from Kubikiribōchō and punch through boulders.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ch603_13-1">[14]  If this or another limb is damaged beyond repair, they are easily removed and replaced with the same material.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-c475p1011_57-0">[58] '''

When Madara died, a number of weapons were left to Obito which he has used at different times over the years. Several of these weapons he keeps stored within Kamui's dimension so that he can access them anywhere and fire them at opponents; he is seen using giant shurikenand chakra receivers – fashioned into giant restraining stakes – for the latter purpose.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-67">[68] <sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-68">[69]  When he fought Minato during the attack on Konoha, he used a long chain attached to braces on his wrists that, when used in conjunction with his intangibility, enabled him to harmlessly pass through his opponent before solidifying to restrain him with the trailing chain.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-69">[70]  Around the time of the Uchiha Massacre, Obito carried a sword at his waist.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-C400P9_25-1">[26]  During the Fourth Shinobi World War he wields Madara's iconic gunbai, using it both as a shield and as a sort of flail for attack.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-70">[71] <sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-71">[72]  The gunbai can generate wind to reflect attacks.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-72">[73] '''

<p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Meiryo,'HelveticaNeue',Helvetica,Arial,'NotoSansJapanese',sans-serif;font-size:16px;">'''Obito has a number of Sharingan in his possession which he keeps in storage should he need them. He uses one of these Sharingan to replace the one he gave to Kakashi, although he keeps it covered with his mask most of the time. He later sacrifices this spare eye's vision in order to perform Izanagi, which allows the user to manipulate events around them. Izanagi ordinarily lasts for only the briefest of moments, but with his access to Hashirama's DNA he can maintain it for ten minutes using a single eye.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ch510_77-0">[78] ''' ====<span class="mw-headline" id="Mangeky.C5.8D_Sharingan" style="font-family:'DroidSerif',Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,serif;">Mangekyō Sharingan  Edit==== <p class="caption" style="color:gray;">Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan. <p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Meiryo,'HelveticaNeue',Helvetica,Arial,'NotoSansJapanese',sans-serif;font-size:16px;">'''Obito awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan after witnessing Rin's death; the Sharingan he gave to Kakashi awakened its Mangekyō at the same time.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3s-ms_74-1">[75]  Their Mangekyō's design is three stretched triangles evenly spaced around the pupil that each curve at the top around the eye to form a circle, making it similar to a pinwheel.

This grants Obito two distinct abilities: teleportation and what is best described as "intangibility". For teleportation, he absorbs himself through his right eye into the special dimension, and from there he can travel anywhere in the world instantly. His intangibility is a more specialised application of the teleportation, where he sends only parts of his body to the other dimension so that he can pass through objects or, more often, objects can pass through him.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-79">[80]  He can only make himself continuously intangible for about five minutes.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-c510_80-0">[81] ''' <p class="caption" style="color:gray;">Obito using his intangibility. <p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Meiryo,'HelveticaNeue',Helvetica,Arial,'NotoSansJapanese',sans-serif;font-size:16px;">'''Kamui becomes Obito's signature fighting style to the point that he rarely resorts to more traditional forms of ninjutsu. In combat he uses his intangibility defensively, allowing opponents and their attacks to pass through him without harming him, and then as offence he teleports them to his dimension while they are disoriented so that they can no longer bother him. The chakra signatures of those he sends to the other dimension cannot be sensed from outside of it.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-81">[82]  Despite how useful Kamui is, it isn't without its weaknesses. Because the two aspects of the technique are connected he can't use both at the same time; if he wants to teleport he can't be intangible, leaving him open to attack, and if he wants to be intangible he can't teleport, preventing him from escaping so long as he remains on the defensive.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-c510_80-1">[81] ''' <p class="caption" style="color:gray;">Obito using the long-ranged Kamui. <p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Meiryo,'HelveticaNeue',Helvetica,Arial,'NotoSansJapanese',sans-serif;font-size:16px;">'''Because Kakashi's Mangekyō Sharingan can also use Kamui, his eye remains the only reliable counter to Obito's abilities. Although Kakashi cannot use Kamui against Obito directly,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-82">[83]  he can use his own access to the other dimension to negate the advantages Obito makes use of: by teleporting attacks or allies to the other dimension at the same moment that Obito's body resides there for defence, he can be attacked successfully.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-83">[84]  He regains the Sharingan he gave to Kakashi during the Fourth Shinobi World War, allowing him to use the eye to perform rapid, precise long-distance teleportation instead of the physical contact required with his other eye's teleportation. With effort, he can use his left Mangekyō to access other dimensional planes.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-84">[85] '''

He is capable of performing all of the Six Paths Techniques with the Rinnegan, but he is only ever seen using abilities of the Outer Path: he can summon the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, create chakra chains to restrain targets,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-86">[87]  and use the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to revive the dead in exchange for his life.''' <p class="caption" style="color:gray;">Obito with his Six Paths of Pain. <p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Meiryo,'HelveticaNeue',Helvetica,Arial,'NotoSansJapanese',sans-serif;font-size:16px;">'''While in possession of the Rinnegan, Obito used it to create his version of the Six Paths of Pain, composed of the six reincarnated jinchūriki with their respective tailed beasts sealed back into their bodies. He controls them each with a single chakra receiver embedded into their bodies. Each jinchūriki had the same eye-pattern as him – a right Sharingan (which granted them its predictive abilities) and a left Rinnegan – allowing him to share their vision and coordinate their movements. The effort required to not only maintain this coordination but to keep the tailed beasts under his control prevents Obito from manifesting any of the Six Paths Techniques in his Six Paths of Pain.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-87">[88] '''
