Yoshitsune

is a strange hybrid of a human and an alien, with the great powers of and 's chakra melded together into the  of  along with the chakra of the nine, which was bonded to his young, half-alien body by. He was later taken to Konohagakure by after taking him from the snake Sannin, and was left in  for protection and was in the care of  until he found the child a caretaker and home. Despite his love for the village and what he owed to it, Yoshitsune would eventually leave the village due to learning the true darkness that lived in the village with the planned death of his best friend, becoming a wanderer in the shinobi world who is neutral to all villages. Later in life, Yoshitsune would become a powerful with the usage of his Six Paths Sage Mode. With having the powers of the Sharingan, the Mangekyō Sharingan, the Rinnegan, and the Six Paths Sage Mode, some have said that Yoshitsune is on the same level of power as the Sage of Six Paths, perhaps even surpassing him. Yoshitsune's ocular abilities would later merge into a single ability, the Rinne Sharingan, when Yoshitsune got older, making Yoshitsune that much more powerful an revered in the shinobi world.

Throughout the shinobi world, many have joked that Yoshitsune has as many talents as the number of petals of the blossoms on a cherry tree, earning him the moniker of. After mastering the Six Paths and reading the history of the tablet hidden in the, Yoshitsune would seek to fulfill Hagoromo's dream in his own way, and would set out to try and help bring not just peace to the world, but give it justice. Yoshitsune would go on to explain to the five kage that he wanted to be a free roaming shinobi with no ties to one village in particular, and help better the shinobi villages. With the blessing of Naruto and the other, he would be allowed this, and does various missions to help the great shinobi villages. After this, with his great power, defending of peace, and his willingness to kill for it, Yoshitsune became known to many as the. Finally, due to his possession of the extremely rare Rinne Sharingan, and further by his being unique in that it is the fully merged powers of his previously wielded Sharingan, Mangekyō Sharingan, and Rinnegan, making it possess all of their respective powers, along with his powerful Six Paths Sage Mode, made Yoshitsune become known as the.

Background
The humans were not alone in this universe. The mother of chakra,, and supposedly two men, and , proved this with their alien origin. However, Momoshiki and Kinshiki were not truly alone. Other aliena had been among them from their mighty, from high ranking people like Kinshiki's master, to another so lowly that he was never given a name by his master Momoshiki and lacked the Byakugan. This man served as a slave to Momoshiki, and even the mighty Kinshiki had the authority to give him orders. The man, who remained nameless even in solitude as he feared to disrespect his much more powerful masters, being bounded to an unjust leader. After the, however, the servant had the chance to escape. Sent to survey the Earth and discover the whereabouts of the known as, the Nine-Tails. Hunting for the location of the beast, the servant would note the beauty of the Earth compared to his home world, and begin to longer strongly for freedom. The servant seized his chance and fled his mission, going through many villages to find a sanctuary. The servant eventually found a town somewhere in the spacious land of the Land of Fire. Finding a woman he fell in love with, the former servant removed the horns he had and married the woman. She would become pregnant by the former servant, and life seemed to be looking up for the escaped servant. Despite this, Momoshiki, angered by the betrayal, sought out the wayward servant and eventually located the runaway. Momoshiki would begin destroying much of the village, but the former servant, in a fit of rage, awakened a strange eye, with which he used to defend the village long enough to allow the residents to escape. The wayward servant stood against his former master bravely, but was quickly cut down by the superior being and was consumed for the power he had. Momoshiki would then return home, not yet ready to carry out his plans for capturing.

The now dead servant's wife, though her name is lost, wandered after the escape of the village. Her heart was broken, as she lost her husband, family, friends, and home all in one swift attack. Her only saving grace was the child she had in her stomach, but it would prove to be her undoing as well. The of the snake,, had been surveying the woman for many years, even prior to her marriage to an alien. This is due to her being the descendant of the famed clan, who partially scattered in fear of the  back when  was formed. With the alien, however, Orochimaru became more interested in the life she carried in her womb for his own desires.

Orochimaru, the infamous scientist and member of the, lusted for such powers found in the tomes of years that have gone past. Orochimaru was one of the few shinobi outside of the to ever set his sights on the  tablet, the greatest tome of knowledge on the great God of Shinobi Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths, and one of the even fewer to understand the message that it held. Such knowledge led to the reviving of, who would eventually truly return to life and become the of the recreated  and would place the world into the Infinite Tsukuyomi and ensnare them in the God: Nativity of a World of Trees, making them live out their dreams in safety as their chakra and mind were eaten away. Orochimaru himself was one of the victims of this powerful ability. Unlike most, however, Orochimaru's dream was for power and for knowledge. Combining his deepest dream of knowledge with the fact he had taken over a body, the tree, the extension of, viewed him as not a threat, but as a soldier without the commander's orders. The tree, combining knowledge of Kaguya herself and of Hagoromo, which it had gained from its time sealed in the man, flowed it to the snake Sannin, feeding him the true nature of the Naka Shrine tablet in the process.

With the Infinite Tsukuyomi being released, Orochimaru quickly went to work, dispersing into snakes and collecting samples of DNA and of, the reincarnations of the sons of Hagoromo,  and. From the Orochimaru learned Indra and Asura reincarnated into new beings, and had knowledge now of Hagoromo's power being born of both their chakra, rather than the clans themselves. Orochimaru, though had hints from the Ten-Tails roots, a portion of Kaguya herself, clearly knew that Sasuke and Naruto were the current hosts of the spirits of Indra and Asura, thus explaining why he went to obtain their blood, which was plentiful on their battlefield from fighting. Taking these samples to one of his many Otogakure hideouts, he began to prepare for the woman and her part-alien child.

As the woman began to go into labor, Orochimaru posed as a doctor to her who wanted to help her. With help from, a baby boy was delivered. While to woman possessed a strong life force from her Senju lineage, she ultimately would die from complications while giving birth. Orochimaru, ignoring this, focused on the child and advancement of his previous experiments. Orochimaru had attempted in an earlier experiment to bind the blood of Naruto and Sasuke together in an advanced cloning process he developed sometime after his student had left him with many of his clones based of the power of adaptiveness of his DNA and evolution potentials, though he avoided use of his one remaining Shin clone in case Six Paths chakra could prove to be its one weakness and overpower the body, destroying it, and these would prove the be a failure. The blood would simply reject each other and breakdown. However, with the child of the alien and the Senju, Orochimari formulated a new plan. Using the enzymes of the Shin clone he possessed, Orochimaru crafted a fluid, similar to the creation of the he made from, that would help one adapt to grafts in a way similar to Shin himself. Following this, Orochimaru injected the blood of Naruto and Sasuke within the child, carrying the chakra of Indra, Asura, and the tailed beasts. The tailed beast chakra, however, rejected the process and was locked deeply within the boy. The boy's body would begin producing the Six Paths chakra, readable to Orochimaru who has felt the powers in Naruto and Sasuke through spying and sensing before.

Orochimaru would be delighted by the success of years of work finally paying off, doing this experiment as he could raise the child under his principles to condition the child to be his loyal subject as so Orochimaru could eventually take the child's body as his own. Orochimaru also did this way as to gain the much larger pool of powerful chakra, a powerful chakra network, and eyes crafted by the chakra of Indra and the perfect and powerful body and life force forged by the chakra of Asura that he hypothesized the child would have due to Hagoromo, as Orochimaru himself lacked a powerful body and had lesser reserves of chakra. All went according to plan, the child developed into a healthy baby, and as Orochimaru held him like a twisted father, the child's rescue would soon unfold. An unknown assassin had appeared in the base, a former experiment of Orochimaru, with the man wanting revenge for his imprisonment and family's death in one of Orochimaru's many labs. The man used his cursed seal to attack the man, taking advantage of Orochimaru's weakness in his failing host body to overpower him. Quickly though, Sasuke himself appeared and eventually would use the Chidori Sharp Spear to stab the crazed man through the heart and sliced down, killing the man quickly. Sasuke had appeared to gain information he needed for his mostly unknown journey of fighting a threat worse than Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, but quickly heard the crying of the child, who was startled awake by the sound of the assassin and the chirping of the Chidori Sharp Spear. Sasuke picked up the child, he noted with his sensory abilities that the chakra of the created child was nearly identical to Hagoromo's when he had the Sage greet him in his body. Sasuke grew angry with Orochimaru, destorying a large portion of the man's lab and all the samples he had of his and Naruto's DNA, only leaving the man alive for the valuable knowledge he held. Leaving with the child, Sasuke commanded Orochimaru to never make such an error again. Orochimaru, seemingly promising, told the Uchiha he would refrain from doing such an act again, at least for Sasuke's lifespan. Sasuke was unsure of allowing the child to live, but thought of Naruto, his ever merciful best friend and felling the power of both himself and Naruto in the child, and spared the child by taking him to Konohagakure and left with Naruto under the instruction of making sure the child was cared for and did not suffer the loneliness that both he and Naruto suffered. Naruto promised this, and would leave the child in the care of a Musashibō, a well-known monk, knowing the man was lacking of hatred and who had also learned the ways of the shinobi from various shinobi, and had explained his story.

From that point on it was Musashibō who raised the young child who quickly began getting stronger during his development into an individual. Musashibō would name the infant Yoshitsune, supposedly after his own father. Yoshitsune would grow into being a happy toddler and later child, and was cared for greatly by Musashibō. Yoshitsune would be active in his care, helping his caretaker with various chores and tasks. Yoshitsune would extend this to others around the village, however, many feared him do to his coming from Orochimaru and his lab, though with time and kindness, Yoshitsune proved to the people of the village, both civilian and shinobi, that he was no monster or envoy of destruction, but a kind and caring soul.

Yoshitsune would eventually go to the ninja academy, and would meet a boy named Ninigi Senju, who would grow to become Yoshitsune's best friend and brother-figure. The two bonded quickly with their similar personalities and hearts, and Ninigi, as an orphan himself, would eventually be taken in by Musashibō and raised by him too, making Yoshitsune and Ninigi that much closer to being brothers. Being great in school, Yoshitsune and Ninigi together planned to allow their grades to reach a median as to allow them to be placed on the same team together for easily, much to Musashibō's exasperation over them not preforming as well as they could.

Graduating from the academy, he was placed on a genin team with Musashibō as the jōnin instructor, with Ninigi just as they had planned and an unknown female, which Yoshitsune remarks was a member of the Hyūga clan, as his teammates. Yoshitsune was put on various missions by Musashibō quickly, as he possessed strong faith in Yoshitsune and Ninigi. The team proved to be strong, as typical genin missions like retrieving lost pets or finding lost equipment soon proved to pose no challenge to them, and as such move up to higher rank missions. Taking care of alrge wild animals and younger rouge ninja, Yoshitsune and his team quickly proved to be a powerful force as these missions too flowed smoothly for them. All of this together made the group be called the strongest of the genin teams at the time.

When the chūnin exams rolled around, the team entered and were promoted to the rank of chūnin. During the exam Oto-nin who knew of Orochimaru's hand in his birth began to taunt Yoshitsune, calling the boy a mere created vessel and his only purpose was to be a weapon. The group placed Yoshitsune under a genjutsu that showed what Yoshitsune's life may have been like with Orochimaru, a boy trained from morning to midnight to become Orochimaru's new body before trying to kill him. To try and stop it, the Hyūga female tried to attack them, but the stronger Oto-nin countered her attacks, and accidentally killed her in the process, though they were not effected by this action. His trusted best friend threw a kunai at Yoshitsune in a non-vital area, the pain from it waking Yoshitsune up from the genjutsu. After this, the pain of knowing the truth, he was not a normal child, and he was a hybrid and was treated to become a living weapon. The stress of the revelation that he was even further from normal than he suspected and the purpose he was made for, along with the saddening death of his teammate, made the Sharingan, born from his Six Paths chakra along with his alien body in an imperfect state of being, manifest in both of his eyes quickly. They tried to place Yoshitsune in another genjutsu, but Yoshitsune was able to break it as it was set upon him. Yoshitsune and Ninigi then quickly defeated the three Oto-nin and put them close to death. Sometime later, Yoshitsune still sat in the revelation and began to hate himself until Musashibō and Ninigi came to him. Musashibō said despite the terms of his life, Yoshitsune was still human, and above all, he was Musashibō's beloved son and student. Ninigi called Yoshitsune his brother, and joked how as Yoshitsune was "partially" Asura, they were related by chakra. Yoshitsune embraced the two, and accepted his past is not of his control, but his future is. After this, with approval from Musashibō, Yoshitsune went on to fight in the exams still and earn his chūnin rank alongside Ninigi.

Sometime after this point, Musashibō helped Yoshitsune learn the power of the Rasengan. Proving challenges with it, Musashibō had Yoshitsune focus upon rotation of air, using his own to show it. Following this, Yoshitsune followed suit, and started to udnerstand by taking the techniuqe simple rotations at a time until finally, he was able to burst both balloon and rubber ball with his rotating chakra before finally forming a true Rasengan. From there, Yoshitsune added his original chakra affinity before he awakened either of the eyes that gave him usage and affinity levels of power in each chakra nature, the. Working to add it in, Yoshitsune created the Lightning Echo Rasengan, his equivalent to Naruto's Wind Release: Rasengan and Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, as his possesses two levels. These are a simple lightning-based Rasengan, and a larger Rasengan with a ring of lightning around it that can be thrown and creates a large dome of lightning.

Years later on one of his last team missions with his sensei and father-figure Musashibō, the two were ambushed by originally from Kumo-nin. Musashibō knew that in their state they were both doomed and demanded Yoshitsune to flee while he held the group off. Musashibō proceeded to use his skill to fight them off as best he could, but ultimately died as a result. Yoshitsune would return after hearing the howls of his father-figure's pain and seeing the dead body of his teacher made his Sharingan evolve into his own Mangekyō Sharingan. He then used the technique it granted to him to avenge his fallen master. After mastering the power of both versions of his Kamui, Yoshitsune would also gain the power to use Susanoo, one of Yoshitsune's staple techniques.

Years would pass and Yoshitsune became a jōnin and even served as an Anbu member for a time. During this time, Yoshitsune and Ninigi would develop the Water Release: Mare Nostrum Technique together. While serving as an Anbu towards the end of his tenure, Yoshitsune would lose his dear brother-figure Ninigi, who was lost during a mission. Ninigi was declared dead strangely quick. Yoshitsune attended the funeral and possesses sadness, but it was numbed by his suspicions. Yoshitsune would locate files on many attacks and events done by Konoha. While many were justified, many were also dark and served nothing but to defend the government of Konoha. Yoshitsune would learn of dark events like the, , and the true reasons of why moved the Uchiha clan, not for protection, but for fear of them. Ninigi's own loss was planned by Konoha as the world feared his power that was becoming on par with 's, further unbalancing the villages as Naruto and Sasuke both still stood, though they acted as peacekeepers of the world. The fear rested mostly in what he could do should Naruto and Sasuke both pass away and he gain control. Rather than risk war from rising disputes and Ninigi's power, he was sacrificed by higher-ups in the village without the Hokage's approval. Yoshitsune further learned his own story for being brought to Konoha. He would discover how his life was questioned by Sasuke if it was worth keeping, and how Sasuke and Naruto brought him to the village for safe keeping. Moreover, he learned that he himself only narrowly avoided a similar fate as he possessed only a Mangekyō Sharingan and lacked a brother to attain the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, the world being unaware of his Mangekyō Sharingan not losing its light due to the Six Paths chakra he wielded, which further was an unknown fact to most too. Yoshitsune had an emotional breakdown, finally losing his numbness at this point, and cried out in sadness and anger. The unneeded death of Ninigi and his own narrowly held life, these things ultimately pushed Yoshitsune's emotions to their greatest extend and he awakened the Rinnegan as his powers finally balanced themselves out in his biology. Yoshitsune grew to distrust his home village after this. Yoshitsune would go before all five of the kage, and for the first time reveal his Rinnegan to the other villages. Yoshitsune explained his stance, his desire to set out and help better all the villages in a fashion similar to Sasuke Uchiha, but larger-scale. With Naruto's blessing, the other kage slowly approved of this, mostly to make it so Yoshitsune was neutral to all the villages and avoid another planned death like Ninigi, fearing the great power Yoshitsun wielded. Yoshitsune also got the officials behind Ninigi's death arrested and sent to the, the infamous Blood Prison, where many of them would eventually take their own lives in shame for their actions. Yoshitsune would be noted for smiling upon hearing this news later on.

With his eye, body, and chakra similar that of the, he eventually ventured out and was able to access the during one of his many missions to maintain peace in the shinobi world and peace between the village. Yoshitsune, despite his earlier disgust with the dark history of the village, grew to understand a view of why it had happened, and further wanted to maintain peace himself. Here he learned of the Sage's final words, albeit corrupted by the malicious. The Rinnegan chakra in Yoshitsune reacted to the presence of the tablet's fully read nature, and summoned forth the spirit Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, the mythical Rabbit Goddess. She attempted to make Yoshitsune turn his will over to hers, but he sliced through the apparition and cut it in two, causing the spirit of the Sage of Six Paths,, to appear. Hagoromo explained he had performed a small genjutsu to test the will of Yoshitsune. Hagoromo then used his power to repair the corrupted tablet after all the changes created by Black Zetsu to it. Hagoromo would further add information regarding the Sage's mother Kaguya, the, the , the ' origins, and various other secrets now held in the tablet, as well as new additional information he learned through and  during their battle with Kaguya. The Sage of Six Paths also, using his power to transcend time, revealed to Yoshitsune the truth about his father and mother, revealing that Yoshitsune was part of the Ōtsutsuki clan and was truly half alien, and that Yoshitsune gained the ocular powers of the Sage thus personifying the Uchiha's power with a body more like the Senju and. Further, for his iron clad faith, Hagoromo granted Yoshitsune the Six Paths Sage Mode. Yoshitsune began to take this information to heart and would share this information with the world, and begin any surviving information about his alien bloodline. During these travels, Yoshitsune on his mission against those who seek to conceal the truth, mastered the power of his Rinnegan and the full power of his chakra. Further, Yoshitsune also traveled to locations like, the , and the to gain a greater understanding of his sage abilities. To be allowed in, however, Yoshitsune had to prove himself. For the toads, he had to defeat their leader in a race to the peak of the highest mountain in the region. For the snakes, he had to be able to defeat the head of the snakes in combat without usage of his dōjutsu or Truth-Seeking Balls. Finally, for the slugs, he had to locate at least three separate slugs within two hours time, which proved a challenge as the size of many of them and their tendency to divide themselves into smaller fragment made talking to the same slug multiple times very easy, and Yoshitsune was disallowed usage of sensory skills to speed up the process. Yoshitsune passed all of these challenges when he was faced with them at each of the areas with fair difficulty during these three separate events. With the toads, it took him three separate tries to finally win, learning to mimic a frog's jump more. From the snakes, Yoshitsune accomplished it one his first try as he possesses extraordinary power, but learned to ground himself and strike when the tie was right much like how a serpent would. With the slugs, he complete the task on his second try, and learned to be more observant of his surrounding, much like a slug does to defend themselves from their slow speed. Taking a great amount of time in each of these three nearly mythical places, Yoshitsune came to be considered one of the strongest sages to ever live by the heads of each respective region, and increased several of his basic abilities greatly with training from the individual areas. Yoshitsune has also noted that he has spent time searching for other ares that bolster senjutsu-wielding animals, though he makes no comment in regards to if he found any, as he wants to maintain secrecy of certain events.

Many years after his mastering of senjutsu in the sacred sage areas, Yoshitsune's three ocular kekkei genkai that he held merged into one with the masses of chakra Yoshitsune had absorbed through his numerous adventures and the tailed beast chakra sealed deep within him merged with the light on the moon completing it, becoming a powerful set of Rinne Sharingan. With this, Yoshitsune lost the ability to access the Sharingan, Mangekyō Sharingan, or Rinnegan individually. In this process, Yoshitsune's chakra levels increased to an even greater level than before. While he maintains his various different abilities, such as Kamui, Susanoo, Six Paths Technique, Amenotejikara, and Limbo: Border Jail, he further gained various new ones, such as the upgraded form of Genjutsu: Sharingan, the Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan. Other such ones were the God: Nativity of a World of Trees, which Yoshitsune uses much like, and the Amenominaka, which merged with his Kamui abilites. With his strange, extraordinary Rinne Sharingan and his mastered Six Paths Sage Mode, Yoshitsune would become known as the. Yoshitsune uses these new found powers to continue his path and maintain peace, even by forceful means when and if needed.

Personality
Yoshitsune in his childhood was known to be a kind-hearted child and sympathetic with those around him. When one of his friends was hurt he would always visit them in the hospital or at their home to make sure they are okay and to cheer them up. This made him rather popular as it showed how he truly cared for others. He was also rather cocky when it came to fighting, even going as far as to challenge jōnin despite their superior training and discipline, often leaving Yoshitsune being beaten embarrassingly fast. Despite this, Yoshitsune would take these moments to learn from the jōnin afterward, and improve his technique more and more over time with this insight from many people, gaining respect from these jōnin who simply thought him to be a loudmouthed knucklehead.

His time as a genin proved to make his life better. The more he worked, the more he became confident in himself and bonded with his friends and allies. Yoshitsune showed carefulness, to make sure his missions would go as smoothly as possible, though he spoke and appeared brash at times. He also showed care byt actively trying to defend his teammates. Yoshitsune soon showed more desire to grow as he pushed for more challenges, showing him to be one not content with easy challenges and simplicity. During the, he would become greatly hurt when he learned of his alien origins and near life of being subservient to and eventually become his new body, feeling like an outcast even more so than he had before earning the admiration of others, which was only weighted more by the death of his teammate. He showed his willingness to receive guidance and wisdom though from Musashibō and Ninigi Senju who led him back into feeling like he belonged and strengthened his resolve to become stronger for others.

With the death of Musashibō, who Yoshitsune looked to as a father-figure, he took it quite harshly and awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan. Killing all the men responsible for his death, Yoshitsune would depressed for sometime afterward. It took much guidance from his brother-figure Ninigi, who also loved Musashibō as a father and was Yoshitsune's brother-figure, to get back on track and return to common life. With this, Yoshitsune often helped at local shrines in Konohagakure to honor Musashibō. Through this, people came to see Yoshitsune's heart much more and his caring soul within. He became trusted by many to help with various tasks, often performing odd-jobs in the village to help out. However, once Ninigi was sacrificed by officials wihtout 's consent to appease the fears of the other villages that he could become like and disrupt balance even further, Yoshitsune broke down in pain, sadness, and anger. Awakening the Rinnegan and looking into the event to discover the illegal act, Yoshitsune distrusted the village and sought to be free from the village to be a benefactor to all of them so another situation like Ninigi's would never happen. Once he was allowed to leave the village and became neutral to the world villages, his personality changed, as he became more serious and less juvenile. He became less cocky when fighting and kept his various uncovered to deter his foes from fighting him, as many would fear the eye. Now in battles he shows respect to his foes, generally allowing them to speak if they desire to without interruption. Though he is generally kind, Yoshitsune is more than willing to kill if he has to. In battles if he gets taunted by the foe with insults towards what he cherishes, Yoshitsune lets his anger show through at times. Despite these changes though, Yoshitsune retains his caring nature, truly kind at heart, but also displays egotism and arrogance to cover this fact, and at times he is even called rude and at times immature. Despite this, when the weight of a situation is evident, he shows how serious he can be, dropping his ego aside for as long as he needs to. He extends his true caring nature and friendship to all of the major and other high ranking ninja from many villages, but still jokingly insults them. He even claims to go as far as allowing his total annihilation to defend the shinobi world he cares so much for. Yoshitsune retains his ability to forgive most people, though can take time for this as well. He was known to be most relaxed around his longtime friend Ninigi, and even made jokes around with him. Yoshitsune recognized Ninigi as his true best friend, and was greatly devastated when he discovered Ninigi's death. In battle, while retaining respect, is also known to compliment his foes, which some interpret as him mocking them. Despite his kindness, Yoshitsune is also known to have random bouts of egotism and can become arrogant, due to Yoshitsune still having a prideful nature. Through his travels and seeing how much darkness is in the world, Yoshitsune's willingness to kill has gone up, often performing assassinations that he believes will help bring peace and justice to the world as much as he possibly can as he still believes in the concept. Yoshitsune's drive and will was also enough to impress the leaders of, , and , and was allowed to then train in each area. This made Yoshitsune wiser, and also helped him overcome is strange fear of frogs. Yoshitsune is often described as one who walks the path of but with the heart of.

In his old age, Yoshitsune still possesses much of the kindness and charisma of his youth. Furthermore, he has returned to his more gentle, fun loving self, but maintains much wisdom from his long life and many journeys and is willing to share these experiences with those who would listen. Despite seeing much in his life, he retains his belief of most humans being able to maintain peace and harmony, and fights to defend it still from those who wish to harm it. Much like a teacher, Yoshitsune is also willing to help those with vision similar to his own. Yoshitsune is also noted to strongly like things he deems cute.

Appearance
Yoshitsune, much like other 'archaic' members of the Uchiha and Senju clans, bears the appearance of their noble birth coursing through his veins strongly. His formerly detached and cold persona immediately translates to the stance he takes in daily life: upright, but with a slight slouch to represent his detached state of mind. One particular portion of his appearance is his figure. He is relatively tall, but holds a lean and trim figure, which, combined with the various experiences he has been through, is highly muscular. This is combined with his spiky black hair that faces towards his right, obscuring a portion of his angular, handsome, face and strikingly cold black eyes, morphing into the image that can only be called Yoshitsune. Yoshitsune would also wear his facial hair in a simple, sharp goatee. His eyes could also be red or purple in their Sharingan, Mangekyō Sharingan, or Rinnegan forms, though later in life these forms would be lost for a greater eye replacing them. He displays no alien characteristics, such as horns, however, despite being half alien.

Later on in his life, Yoshitsune's would let his hair grow out much longer, past his neck, and become upper back length, ending right above his shoulder blades. He would have two fringes framing his face. Yoshitsune's primary clothing style is simple. Yoshitsune would also grow a beard, one he keeps stylized in a fashion somewhat like 's. Yoshitsune also wears red and white short kimono that he keeps tied with a red sash possessing red magatama along the edges of the sleeve and on the bottom edge of the kimono. With this, e wears simple black pants and sandals. He later switches his kimono shirt to a short-sleeved variant of it, with the exception that no magatama were on it anywhere. He wears this alongside black pants that he is usually known to wear throughout all his major outfit variations.

In his later life, Yoshitsune's black hair grayed out a bit and was cut short once again. He wears it slicked back, no longer the wild hair of his youthful days. His goatee would follow suit, graying in some place, however, it also grew out into a full beard and mustache combination. Despite his older age, Yoshitsune surprisingly lacks wrinkles on his face except for under his eyes. Replacing his old clothes, Yoshitsune wears blue robes with dark pants. His dark eyes could now also be found in the Rinne Sharingan form, which are red rippled eyes with nine tomoe, three on each ripple. Despite his older age, Yoshitsune does no look as old as he truly is, and still is considered quite attractive even by women less than half his age.

Abilities
Due to the circumstances of his birth and different events, Yoshitsune has a large amount of powerful and potent chakra, said to be comparable to that of a easily. Made up of chakra, Yoshitsune's chakra proves to be overwhelming. He is a master of many techniques, many of which are feared nationally and has expert precision with all of them. Though he isn't highly muscular, he is quite strong. Musashibō even says that would have been greatly impressed by the physical strength of the Uchiha, and can easily lift a large boulder with a single hand. As he was created using 's chakra in him, he gained the powerful physical energy and life force of the Senju, while Indra's chakra gave him the Uchiha-like monstrous levels of potent and powerful chakra. His already great stamina was increased as he grew older and activated more of the power in his body. With his ability to access the would also give him the ability to power techniques up to the point of rivaling senjutsu-based abilities, and combined with his own senjutsu makes his techniques unstoppable. Yoshitsune, while possessing multiple skills, is far from being a master of none of them, and is greatly feared for his skill in all areas he works in.

Rinne Sharingan
Advancing in age only led to the ocular power of Yoshitsune increasing. Years upon years of mastering the power of his Sharingan, which was awakened by his own personal pain and the death of one of his teammates, the Mangekyō Sharingan, which was awakened by the death of Musashibō, and his Rinnegan, which was awakened by the pain of his own existence and Ninigi Senju's death, and with it accumulating masses of chakra from various people and various creatures, the eyes increased to a new state of being. The three powers of his eyes merged into one, bonded by the chakra Yoshitsune had gathered, and unwittingly held on to, and absorbed the light of the moon, reawakening into a single form, the Rinne Sharingan. This ocular ability formed in both of his eyes rather than as a third eye upon his forehead, as an effect from the three eyes merging their power. Though he has two eyes, Yoshitsune states his Rinne Sharingan, on a basic scaling of power, is no more powerful than a single forehead one. However, his eyes differ as he still holds the power of the Sharingan, the Mangekyō Sharingan, and the Rinnegan within, allowing him to access their powers or heightened versions. With the unique awakening of his Rinne Sharingan in both his eyes and from the various powers and energies in Yoshitsune merging, he lost the ability to access the Sharingan, Mangekyō Sharingan, and the Rinnegan individually, though Yoshitsune says he is more powerful this way.

With it his power, Yoshitsune possesses the ability to be able to predict his opponents movements, track fast moving objects, and see chakra flow. Also, like Yoshitsune's Mangekyō Sharingan, the eye grants Yoshitsune greater fluidity in his own movements as he can read movements to an even greater degree. The eye gives Yoshitsune the Rinnegan's ability to grant the user the basic of chakra, all of which he has since mastered. This is positive, as Yoshitune states without the Rinne Sharingan, he would lose access to all chakra natures outside of his, and the , the only natures he held prior the Rinnegan granting him all the natures and thus the Rinne Sharingan doing this same act. Yoshitsune's visual prowess is absolutely peaked, and is considered to have the most powerful eyes in the history of the shinobi world, even surpassing the power of 's Rinne Sharingan on all possible accounts.

The eye holds the power to cast powerful genjutsu with a mere, momentary glance, which is also nearly impossible to escape once casted. He can use these powerful illusions of various styles and visions to disable foes, interrogate foes, or place them under his control. Some of his illusions are simple, such as the victim in chains, while others can become more elaborate, such as placing the victim in a vast labyrinth that grows smaller and darker. Another is to simply make them believe they are truly blind, taking them out in their confusion. Yoshitsune uses this in favor of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, as it is quicker and more discreet, being able to catch singular victims in an unbreaking genjutsu if he is trying to break into a location and interrogate someone for information. Further, it possesses most of the power of Infinite Tsukuyomi, simply on a smaller scale. Despite the great power of this ability, Rinnegan and Rinne Sharingan users are immune to this technique much like the Infinite Tsukuyomi, however, with the rarity of these abilities, Yoshitsune proudly says it is nothing he ever truly considers. This technique completely replaced Yoshitsune's old genjutsu ability with his Sharingan, but as they are virtually identical with the exception of the Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan being far more powerful, it is nothing Yoshitsune trult ever remarks on, and states the usage feels the same.

With both of his eyes together, Yoshitsune can also use the Mangekyō Sharingan's most infamous power, the Susanoo. Yoshitsune says the strain on his body is not as significant as other users, possibly from his Regeneration Ability. Yoshitsune's Susanoo has only ever been seen in one form that is simply a large and extremely powerful compared to the Complete Body – Susanoo of other users. It stands at a height comparable to the Ten-Tails second form. Like all Complete Body – Susanoo, it is a large samurai-like warrior that wears the usual tengu-like armor of the normal Susanoo and it possesses traditional long, tengu nose with a carved out mouth with two lines that run into the chin along with robes, pointed shoes, and armor on its shoulder and waist. It, as four-armed warrior, has a back, extra set of arms which are plated more than the front set, and extend upwards to give them a wing-like appearance. Despite only being seen using the Complete Body — Susanoo, Yoshitsune can form single parts of the Susanoo on a whim, such as forming the head of his Susanoo or the ribcage to act as a quick shield against attacks. Yoshitsune can also make the arms of his Susanoo form out of his fists in a manner similar to the tailed beast chakra arms, which gives the punch even greater strength with farther range. This can cause his close range combat to become more unpredictable as he can form the four arms on to him in a compact form to give him a greater number of limbs for striking and defending. The Susanoo can form various weapons for the massive entity, such as a sword in the shape of a gladius or a strangely-shaped bow that can act as a shield. The weapon he uses most commonly is a massive spear, which often forms in the shape of a trident, which is a three-pronged spear. His Susanoo sword is even able to destroy three mountains in a single swing. The sword itself normally forms as a katana, but Yoshitsune can manipulate it into becoming other types of swords like a jian or a gladius. Yoshitsune can form scaled-down versions of his Susanoo weapons for him to personally wield as well. Yoshitsune can make usage of the Yasaka Magatama, a powerful, shuriken-like projectile weapon that spins rapidly and cause massive damage on impact. Yoshitsune claims using his Susanoo in this form would be enough to destroy a nation in mere hours. Yoshitsune can also use his shadow clones to use his Susanoo as well. Yoshitsune's Limbo clones can make superior usage of this power, making their Susanoos invisible to all but those with the Rinnegan and can only be damaged by Six Paths chakra. When using the Six Paths Sage Mode in unison with the Susanoo, a Rinnegan mark forms on the back of the Susanoo with nine magatama beneath it in three rows of three, mirroring the marking that forms on Yoshitsune, and nine massive Truth-Seeking Balls will manifest behind its back as they would for Yoshitsune. Eventually, with the Rinne Sharingan, Yoshitsune would gain a tenth one. A humanoid being of almighty energy, this is how Yoshitsune describes Six Paths Sage Mode-enhanced Susanoo. Yoshitsune refers to this form as the. Due to Yoshitsune being able to naturally fly when using the Six Paths Sage Mode, Yoshitsune's lack of wings on his Susanoo is made null as he can now make the warrior fly with him with the Six Path senjutsu. In this form, Yoshitsune can further enhance his Lightning Echo Rasengan by merging it with the Yasaka Magatama with lightning chakra merged in the beads to create the Sage Art: Lightning Echo Rasentama, with which he creates a large Lightning Echo Rasengan in the hand of his Susanoo, and fastens the the electric ring a set of the magatama beads of Yasaka Magatama made out of senjutsu-enhanced lightning. When the Lightning Echo Rasentama makes contact with a surface, it will burst into a massive column of lightning, and cut down anything along the way with the magatama beads spinning. It causes high amounts of damage. Yoshitsune will often have the weapons that the Susanoo forms normally merge with a Truth-Seeking Ball to become much more powerful. While his Susanoo sword is able to destroy three mountains in one swing, Yoshitsune's Six Paths Sage Susanoo sword can cut down a mountain range with a single swing. In this form, Yoshitsune is sometimes compared to the Ten-Tails in ferocity of power. However, with the power of the Rinne Sharingan, Yoshitsune says his Susanoo equals the Ten-Tails fully. Yoshitsune can further increase the power of the Rinnegan powers he wields with his Susanoo, such as a powerful and deadly push or binding chain to a massive size, or also firing off its hand in a highly destructive manner. At its maximum senjutsu-enhanced power, Yoshitsune claims that with this infamous technique he could destroy the current state of the world in moments.

By accessing the powers of the mighty Rinnegan through the Rinne Sharingan, Yoshitsune can use the Six Paths Technique, the most infamous set of skills the eyes possess. He has unlocked the Deva Path, which gives him power over gravity. This is the path Yoshitsune uses most often in combat. The techniques used by this path, however, often require a recharge before the path is usable again. As such he gained its technique known as Shinra Tensei, which allows him to create a repulsive force that can block projectiles and easily shatter many hard materials. He can also use a large-scale version that can damage the terrain greatly. Yoshitsune also makes use of shadow clones to perform a multiple blast variation, and while the waves themselves weaken, the number can leave a more controlled area of devastation. With this style, Yoshitsune can use to clones to surround a foe and have the multiple waves slam into the foe on all sides, crushing them easily. He also gains the Banshō Ten'in, which allows him to create an attractive force, allowing him to pull objects or people towards him at high speeds. He often uses this technique in combination with another path to absorb their chakra to render them too weak to fight. Yoshitsune can also use clones to perform a multiple pull effect, such as one pull on each side of a foe to tear the foe apart. Yoshitsune also can use the technique known as Chibaku Tensei, which creates a powerful singularity which will be fired into the sky and pulls objects towards it making them compress with each other causing a large sphere to form. After using a technique from the Deva Path, Yoshitsune requires a cool down period until he can use it again. Yoshitsune can also bounce his Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan off of his Chibaku Tensei satellites to form a limited version of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, creating a light that captures those with a certain area under the small satellite into random illusions. Yoshitsune is also able to use the Preta Path, which allows him to absorb chakra, making most ninjutsu unusable on him. Yoshitsune has also unlocked the ability of the Asura Path. This ability allows him to modify his body and make himself a living weapon by transforming part into weapons. The Asura Attack allows him to change a limb into a blaster that fires blasts of chakra that also have an explosive effect, and through time gained the ability to manipulate its path. Yoshitsune can further use the Flaming Arrow of Amazing Ability to fire part of his arm as a projectile. The hand of the arm gains a propulsive power from the burst of chakra that separates the limb from the body and flies in a straight line with high levels of force. The hand can easily shatter bedrock and is protected by a layer of chakra, allowing it to resist being damaged. The detached limb can easily reattach itself to Yoshitsune through the chakra of the arm, which acts like a magnet. Yoshitsune can also use the Naraka Path for interrogation and use of the, as when he catches hold of somebody he can make the King of Hell appear and hold them in place by seemingly paralyzing him. Yoshitsune uses the Naraka Path in such a way that while making contact with the foe, should they lie his body will respond immediately by sending a powerful shock into them as a form of torture rather than the conventional use of the King of Hell's, and should they tell the truth they will be let go after having a large portion of their chakra absorbed by the Preta Path. This seems to indicate that those who had the Rinnegan, or in his case, the Rinne Sharingan, need not summon the King of Hell, as they become their own King of Hell. He can also form powerful chains of chakra with the Outer Path, which can bind all who get caught in them and restrict their power, as well as cause pain to them. Yoshitsune also uses his Preta Path with them to siphon chakra off of those chained in them as well. Yoshitsune is able to use the Animal Path, which allows him to summon animals connected to his powerful eye, such as a strange, golden phoenix-dragon hybrid and an eight-legged horse, and a powerful winged humanoid that is similar to an angel. While used in combat sometimes, Yoshitsune uses these beasts for travel more often than not. As they are connected to his eye, Yoshitsune can control them at will, or he can give them the simple message to preform a certain task which they will then do without any sort of rebuttal as they lack a true consciousness of their own. Yoshitsune can further apply usage of his Asura Path through his Animal Path summons as they are connected to his Rinne Sharingan, allowing Yoshitsune to rapidly enhance and shape them with the machine-like ability, as well as usage of the other paths. This can be scene by Yoshitsune having the horse summon of his Animal Path gain a large Gatling gun on its back to attack, or by the angel summon using the Flaming Arrow of Amazing Ability to fight for its master. Under the Rinnegan, this was used through the Summoning Rinnegan, however, under the Rinne Sharingan Yoshitsune simply refers to it strictly as the Animal Path. Yoshitsune also is able to use the Human Path, which allows him to read the mind of somebody but also tear their soul out in the process. Yoshitsune doesn't use the Human Path in combat often, but when he does he often employs it as to only remove part of the soul he is targeting it, and then quickly sever that one part, often through usage of a blade created through the Asura Path. After this is performed, the part of the body that lost its soul will begin to rot. Yoshitsune has access to the Outer Path, being able to use it to form black receivers that can transmit and receive chakra, and use them as weapons. With the transmission and receiving of chakra, Yoshitsune can control those who get pierced by them and get them stuck in them to deadly effect, with only a select few being able to resist him, especially at close range from him. Among using them like weapons, Yoshitsune often does so by creating swords and spears to attack with, often to gauge foes and get fragments of the black rods within them for various uses later on. He seems to use these rods in a fashion similar to the Shikotsumyaku, having them grow from his body and act as a defense and offense all at once, merging the bladed rods into his taijutsu for a deadly combination. Yoshitsune can also use the rods to exert his will over those pierced by them. Yoshitsune can further control the rods remotely and move them telepathically like, in a manner that often gets confused with Magnet Release. Using this aspect of the ability, Yoshitsune also developed a manner of using the rods by having them crushed into a powder, using the particles like the sand of the and its. This particles, while not as strong, can begin to slow down one who has had many pierced into them, slowly giving Yoshitsune more and more control without their knowledge. Yoshitsune can further use these rods to form perform the Six Red Yang Formation ability, forming a malleable red box that is able to withstand the explosions of multiple Tailed Beast Balls. Yoshitsune's chakra rods are harder than steel and can fight on par with Shikotsumyaku bones, and with enhancements from the Rinne Sharingan's power, can even damage Shikotsumyaku bones.

Yoshitsune can also use his Rinne Sharingan to use the Limbo: Border Jail, with which he can project a clone or clones of himself in the realm. These clones are extremely powerful, and can tackle down large foes such as Susanoo and, and can move extremely fast. The shadows of this strange technique can only operate for five minutes before returning to Yoshitsune for a cool down time. The clone shadow can also be harmed by techniques made of 's chakra, making this technique difficult to counter for most and nearly invincible. Yoshitsune is able to use this technique to make four clones at a time. The clones can be used for spying purposes as well, as only the Rinnegan and the Rinne Sharingan can see the clones. This way, Yoshitsune can set multiple clones to gather information without fear of being detected for the most part with the Rinnegan and the Rinne Sharingan being extremely rare abilities. Yoshitsune, due to its great usage, favors this technique highly among the many abilities his eyes have given him.

Yoshitsune can shift his location with his Rinne Sharingan as well by using the technique known as Amenotejikara, allowing him to instantly move from one area to another. The range of this technique can also be increased if he trades places with an object, which Yoshitsune often employs with his Limbo clones. He further maximized usage of the ability by being able to teleport directly to any chakra receiver he has made wherever it may be, in a vein even closer to that of the Flying Thunder God Technique. Yoshitsune can further use it to shift the location of objects and other people, placing them in strategic locations. This technique does have a cooldown period, however, due to Yoshitsune possessing this technique through the Rinne Sharingan at this point, it seems to make his cooldown time significantly shorter than 's, and Yoshitsune can use the technique five times before having to recharge it for a short duration of time unlike the standard Rinnegan's three uses. When he is in Six Paths Sage Mode he can use this technique seven times rapidly without having to recharge.

Another such technique is Amenominaka, an ability which allows Yoshitsune to teleport himself and others to other dimensions. This ability allows Yoshitsune to have multiple dimensions with different effects. The first of the many dimensions Yoshitsune possesses is a dimension made of variously sized rectangular prisms, much like the. This world is primarily used as to project his Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan throughout the entire dimension to have easy projections of things made and powerful, widespread genjutsu constantly active. This later is revealed to be Yoshitsune's core dimension, and different prisms would show images of the other dimensions. The second dimension is a massive cavern with a floor of lava. The cavern is full of intense heat. This dimension either requires one to cling to a wall or to have the ability of flight. Yoshitsune can control the lava as if he possessed the Lava Release kekkei genkai. Yoshitsune admits he had these two different dimensions as soon as he has the power of Amenominaka. Yoshitsune says that, like Kaguya, he can create more dimensions by gathering masses of chakra, and has done such. The third dimension of Yoshitsune's is nearly identical to the Ten-Tails' power known as Tenpenchii. In this dimension is a constant, never ending violent storms, which can include heavy rain, hail, blizzards, lightning, tornadoes, and hurricane-scale events, as well as massive earthquakes and various other calamities that threaten the lives of all within the dimension it takes place in greatly. A strange, but powerful, explosion also takes place in the heart of the storm every once in awhile, forming a large mushroom cloud in the process. Yoshitsune can use his Sage-abilities to control the storms to a degree and does so to defend himself. Yoshitsune can also control the course of the storm and its products, such as the hail and snow as if he could use the great power of Ice Release, being able to restructure and reshape it in the air and on the ground for various tactics. The fourth dimension is one of eternal darkness, and was created by Yoshitsune through the lack of material to make one like the more complex ones that Kaguya Ōtsutsuki created. In this realm, light cannot be created in any form, making it truly a world darkness greater than that of the night. The only beings that can see perfectly in this dark and cruel realm are the ones who possess the Rinne Sharingan, and to a lesser extent, the Sharingan and Rinnegan. Yoshitsune can also allow vision to those without any these dōjutsu by passing on to them a portion of his chakra. Yoshitsune is able to transport himself or others singularly to different dimensions by making contact and can jump between his dimensions more often without using too much chakra. This is perhaps due to Yoshitsune's longer tenure of using it, as the technique was often unneeded by Kaguya in her time due to being the only person with chakra until her were born. Further, if too much chakra is used he can use a certain technique to create ways to his lost chakra. Yoshitsune can also sacrifice large amounts of chakra from the same technique to create more dimensions, though Yoshitsune says he in disinterested in doing this.

Prior to gaining Amenominaka, Yoshitsune possessed Kamui with his formerly held Mangekyō Sharingan. This power would be merged with his Amenominaka upon his acquisition of his Rinne Sharingan, and Yoshitsune would reveal the core dimension in his usage of Amenominaka is truly his original Kamui dimension, explaining its appearance and further why it is the core one, as it predates the others in terms of Yoshitsune's possession of them by years. As he is still able to use Kamui, Yoshitsune can create portals with which he can capture his enemies in and send them to any of his dimensions. This in turn makes it so Kamui acts as his replacement for Yomotsu Hirasaka. Further, Yoshitsune can place himself in his central dimension and become intangible to the outside world. Yoshitsune can maintain this for seven minutes with the advancement of the power. Yoshitsune can also merge Kamui into other attacks, such as the Kamui Shuriken, with which he can open many portals at once, and uses this to send large groups into his many different dimensions from extremely long ranges. Yoshitsune can use Kamui to open portals to his various dimensions and bring them into the real world or other dimensions, such as summoning forth lava from his lava dimension in the regular world and control it like he normally can in the lava dimension. Yoshitsune mostly uses Kamui for portal creation and phasing purposes, while Amenotejikara acts as his fast travel method. As the Kamui dimension is his central dimension, Yoshitsune could warp himself here as an Kamui user could normally to conserve chakra, and can absorb chakra here captured by another one of his techniques, and push those caught in here to the prisms containing images of his other dimensions. This transports them to this world without Yoshitsune having to use a mass of chakra to do so.

By combining the power of his Amenominaka, Chibaku Tensei, and Kamui, Yoshitsune can use one of his most destructive techniques, the God: August Star of Heaven. By forming a Chibaku Tensei core in his lava dimension, Yoshitsune can allow the core to gather lava and then eject it into the real world, or other dimensions, with the power of his Kamui. The lava Chibaku Tensei gathers material, such as the terrain and other material, which will be melted down into more lava or fuel. All who get caught in the technique will likely burn to death from it, but should they survive, Yoshitsune can make the lava rapidly cool into stone, imprisoning the unlikely survivors. Yoshitsune can also make the core release and make it rain lava over the terrain violently. Yoshitsune, as the lava comes from the dimensions he commands like a god, changes the properties of the lava to not harm him but only others. While it is not required, Yoshitsune will only perform this technique in the Six Paths Sage Mode as to lessen the strain on his body, eyes, and chakra reserves.

Yoshitsune can also use the God: Nativity of a World of Trees ability, which allows him to manipulate the roots of the or form smaller god trees, and Yoshitsune shows that it can be used much like the Wood Release Secret Technique: Nativity of a World of Trees. In fact, Yoshitsune bases his usage of the technique off of his childhood friend Ninigi's usage of that famous and feared Wood Release technique. The trees have a chakra absorption ability to protect themselves from damage, such as it being able to consume fire to prevent major burning, but high-speed wind and water techniques can cut through it before the trees can react quickly enough. It can be merged with his path powers, which he notably does with the Asura Path, with which he turns the masses of trees in the godly forest, organic extensions of himself, into weaponry such as chakra cannons which can be used to obliterate armies and devastate the ground. It can also be merged with the Preta Path to greatly enhance its chakra absorption, being able to consume massive techniques with it this way. It can also be used to ensnare those captured by his Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan and absorb their chakra, and then when it is all taken they will be released from the trees' grasp. Yoshitsune also uses this technique to have the roots of his trees reach the "Dragon Veins" (龍脈, Ryūmyaku), an ancient source of chakra, as to absorb chakra directly from them as to produce chakra fruit, a lower quality version of the fruit eaten by Kaguya, to give Yoshitsune more chakra should he need it by eating said fruit. Yoshitsune can sacrifice a mass of his chakra fruits along with his chakra to create more dimensions for his usage of Amenominaka. He also ensnares the worst of criminals caught in the Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan with this to drain them of their chakra and destroy their network and change their bodies, turning them into pre-chakra humans of the era before Kaguya.

Ninjutsu
Truly, ninjutsu is where Yoshitsune shines in battle, which is ironic considering he is essentially the successor of the Sage of Six Paths,, who opposed ninjutsu. As previously stated, Yoshitsune has very high levels of extremely potent chakra due to his creation being a result of the merge of and 's chakra to create Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki's powerful chakra within his hybrid body along with portions of chakra from the  merged in, and had been compared to a tailed beast himself on numerous occasions, which allows him to use many high level techniques in succession. His powerful Six Paths, tailed beast-enhanced chakra also enhances the power and usage of his various techniques. Yoshitsune further has the stamina to keep up with this usage of ninjutsu. Yoshitsune possesses a power once held by, a highly potent healing ability that allows him to heals wounds rapidly, causing scratches and bruises to be erased from his flesh in mere seconds, and broken bones within minutes. Reforming limbs takes longer, however, Yoshitsune can quicken the process by using a large amount of chakra at once or by entering Six Paths Sage Mode, as the natural energy-enhanced chakra, or Six Paths senjutsu chakra, makes the process far stronger. Yoshitsune can also make usage of the powerful and iconic Rasengan, with which he takes chakra to its absolute shape transformation and spirals chakra rapidly for a powerful attack. Yoshitsune also possessed the rare ability to add his own chakra nature into it, using his primarily used and favored -affinity to create powerful new techniques, which have become some of Yoshitsune's signature abilities.

Nature Transformation
Yoshitsune's natural affinity prior to awakening the Rinnegan, and later the Rinne Sharingan, was Lightning Release. He great knowledge on Lightning Release and how to use it, and has been shown to use a strong techniques with it. Yoshitsune also possesses the Lightning Release: Thundering Voice Technique, which gathers chakra in his fingers before releasing it as a thin beam of lightning chakra. The beam can easily pierce through stone, and is an effective long-range move that more so is used to disable the foe rather than kill them. Yoshitsune also has the Lightning Release: Whisper of the Gathering Clouds Technique, with which he kneads lightning chakra within his body before releasing it. The lightning branches out and forms a massive wall of lightning. The wall moves incredibly fast, destroying most of which is crosses. The wall itself takes multiple wind-users tp stop. Despite these powerful techniques, Yoshitsune's main usage of lightning comes with his signature technique, the Lightning Echo Rasengan. With it, it is a powerful Rasengan merged with lightning chakra and has a ring of lightning around it once completed. Possessing the speed of the Chidori, but can be willed to burst into the iconic vortex damage of the Rasengan. This vortex burst can also form a large vortex of lightning to form should enough chakra be used, making it deadly when used against a group as it can catch those behind the original target. The orb can also be thrown to burst into a dome of lightning that covers a large area for a powerful and deadly area of effect attack. This technique is considered the lightning version of the Wind Release: Rasengan and Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, as Yoshitsune calls it, in its various levels of power, the same thing. Yoshitsune has also furthered his usage of the Lightning Echo Rasengan with his Six Paths Sage Mode as he created what is known as the Sage Art: Lightning Echo Rasentama. With this technique, Yoshitsune has made it known he possesses a high caliber of lightning usage. With it, Yoshitsune forms a Lightning Echo Rasengan in the hand of his Six Paths Sage Susanoo and fastens magatama beads infused with lightning chakra as well on to the lightning ring of the technique. Yoshitsune can then fire large, electric Rasentama at rapid speeds that will explode into a massive column of lightning on impact that spreads out in streams. Anything caught up in this massive will be destroyed by the lightning. The column causes wide-scale damage as well. Yoshitsune notes that, while it is not the strongest of his techniques, it is his favorite as it merges every aspect of his major skills.

While lightning is Yoshitsune's main element and original affinity, he also possess the ability to use the Fire Release, and wields it with great skill. He was able to burn down a medium size base with his Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, a technique that creates a large ball of fire that can break through harder substances as well. He supposedly learned this technique from, though Yoshitsune doesn't comment on this often. This technique can be used to shatter some defenses with relative ease, burn the surrounding area of Yoshitsune, and incinerate those unlucky enough to take a direct hit. He can fire multiple fireballs as well, and often uses shadow clones in a large group to make a large barrage of them to form a powerful wall of fire similar to the Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation, possessing the same properties of being widespread and difficult to put out, but just simply made of multiple smaller attacks rather than a single large one. While this attack is not quite as powerful, it still is a powerful offense and can also be used to form a curved wall of fire to add variation. This technique is one of Yoshitsune's more used and favored techniques in general, due to its simplicity yet strong nature.

Thanks to his eyes, Yoshitsune can also use Earth Release, Water Release, Wind Release, Yin Release, Yang Release, and Yin–Yang Release. He does not usually use these transformations in combat as he is not as skilled in their use as opposed to his other natures. Yoshitsune is known to use simple to put wind-chakra into weapons, namely his chakra rods, to increase their cutting ability greatly. Yoshitsune's use of wind also includes flowing it into his fire-based technique to increase their power. Yoshitsune helped develop the Water Release: Mare Nostrum Technique, with Ninigi Senju, and it is a very powerful water technique due to its piercing and cutting strength by acting as a and how it causes massive torrents of water to form upon contact with its target, bringing them down as the water flows rapidly. Yoshitsune often enhances this water technique with lightning chakra, giving it stronger cutting abilities and a painful, even deadly, shock. With Earth Release he can use the Earth Release: Sandwich Technique to cause to slabs of earth, of various sizes depending on how large he wants it, to slam into each other, catching anything in between with tremendous force. This can be used to capture foes as well should Yoshitsune not desire to kill them, squeezing them just enough to keep them strongly held in place. Yoshitsune can use wind chakra to form the Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere to exhale a large amount of wind bullets that cover a large range to make it difficult to avoid, and can easily pierce the flesh and bodies of those struck by them. Further, Yoshitsune can set them on fire to make powerful bullets of fire-enhanced by the wind chakra in the attack, with each becoming as large as a fireball in this process with the cylindrical length of the bullets. His Genjutsu: Rinne Sharingan is yin chakra-based as well, and it allows him to create powerful genjutsu by making eye contact with his foe. The illusion can be anything he desires, and it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to escape.

Yoshitsune is capable of streaming all five elements at once, and with the usage of his shadow clones, Yoshitsune can use the streams in various formations to attack his opponents. Yoshitsune can also merge all of his chakra natures together with Six Paths senjutsu to form Truth-Seeking Balls, which are malleable orbs of powerful senjutsu chakra. These orbs can be shaped into various tools, act like Tailed Beast Balls, behave similarly to other chakra natures such as Dust Release, and negate ninjutsu. These orbs are only weak to senjutsu chakra, making this a powerful weapon to their core. Yoshitsune originally possessed nine of these orbs, but with the awakening of his Rinne Sharingan, he gained a tenth Truth-Seeking Ball.

Bunshinjutsu
Even in the academy as a child, Yoshitsune showed skill with clone techniques. Quickly discarding the, Yoshitsune learned the technique that is mostly forbidden, the Shadow Clone Technique. This technique actually forms tangible clones by dividing the users that can experience things another clone or caster may not. When the clone bursts, the chakra disperses and returns to the caster which gives him all the knowledge the clone gained. Yoshitsune further uses this to create hundreds of shadow clones to form an army of himself and so he can hide among them if needed to get ready for a technique or some other tactic. Yoshitsune further uses the army of clones to attack the enemy from all sides with taijutsu and ninjutsu in a massive barrage. Yoshitsune can make usage of four shadow clones to release all five basic elements at once, which he uses in various formations. Yoshitsune's shadow clones can also make usage of his Susanoo. Yoshitsune is also capable of producing four invisible, nearly invincible clones with his Rinne Sharingan, known as the Limbo: Border Jail that have incredible power and speed, and they can only be damaged by Six Paths chakra. Further, they can only be seen with the Rinnegan or Rinne Sharingan. They can also use any technique has to attack with as well.

Senjutsu
As the successor to the will of legendary, acting like his avatar in some ways, and bearer of 's legacy, Yoshitsune's iron clad will and faith caught the eye of the Hagoromo in their meeting on a mental plane. Passing knowledge on the power of his senjutsu to Yoshitsune through his, Yoshitsune would gain the power of the Six Paths Sage Mode. Travelling from the domains of many of the senjutsu using animals, including the of, the  of , and the  of , and gain a deeper understanding of the power of his forefathers and senjutsu in general, and would become respected in all three areas as one of the strongest sages to ever live. When in this form, the image of a Rinnegan with nine magatama in three rows of three beneath it forms on his back. Unlike other Six Paths senjutsu user who just gain the ripples of the Rinnegan, Yoshitsune's seal has his colored in like a standard Rinnegan. Later in life, the Rinnegan in the mark would be replaced with a Rinne Sharingan, when that very eye became Yoshitsune's only dōjutsu. As his usage of the form progressed, a silver robe of his own chakra would manifest over his normal clothes with the same symbol on his back on the back of the robe, and circle markings forming rings on his shoulders with square protrusions from the rings. The robe was closed in the middle, but opened up more towards the tail of it. Alongside the chakra cloak, a black body suit of chakra forms over his body much like how 's Six Paths Sage form is. Yoshitsune would have to take time to safely gather natural energy, often using shadow clones. At his current level, Yoshitsune can enter Six Paths Sage Mode instantaneously, and no longer needs clones to gather natural energy. In this form, Yoshitsune's strength, stamina, durability, speed, reflexes, and the power of his techniques are greatly heightened. Yoshitsune also states the training at Mount Myōboku made his strength greater, the training at Ryūchi cave made his speed and reflexes sharper, and that his training at Shikkotsu Forest made his stamina and durability stronger, taking on more traits from all three of the great sage animals to make his Six Paths Sage Mode that much greater. The chakra robe that Yoshitsune forms can split on the tail of it into four arms from his Susanoo at will. With it, Yoshitsune further gained the ability to naturally fly and to form nine Truth-Seeking Balls, formed from all of the basic chakra natures of, , , , and , alongside the power of Yin–Yang Release. With his Rinne Sharingan's awakening, Yoshitsune further gained a tenth Truth-Seeking Ball. These Truth-Seeking Balls float behind his back in a circular formation. Yoshitsune further has his Truth-Seeking Balls connected to the power of his Rinne Sharingan, so should one get out of range from where is he, he can summon it back him instantly. Yoshitsune is far faster in this form than his basic form, comparable to some as teleportation. However, Yoshitsune uses Amenotejikara more often for fast travel still as he says it is superior. Yoshitsune is known to be able to use the technique more times in succession in the Six Paths Sage Mode than in his non-transformed form as well, increasing it from five times to seven times without needing to recharge. Moreover, the recharge time between heavy usages of the technique is shortened as well. Yoshitsune could also form a colossus of chakra in this form, but his ability to do so is linked to his Susanoo. By merging his Six Paths Sage Mode and Susanoo together, Yoshitsune enters a form he calls the. The marking that forms on Yoshitsune's back manifests on the avatar's as well, and nine massive Truth-Seeking Balls form behind its back in a circular formation. Some have said that in this form, Yoshitsune is the reborn, due to the massive power it possesses. Yoshitsune himself says in this form that his Six Paths Sage Mode and his Rinne Sharingan become perfectly linked, increasing the power of each other in the process. Yoshitsune's Susanoo also has a sword, though it often gets merged with a Truth-Seeking Ball. With his senjutsu, Yoshitsune can further use the Sage Art: Lightning Echo Rasentama, with which he creates a massive, complete Lightning Echo Rasengan in the hand of his Susanoo, and then stings magatama beads made out of senjutsu-enhanced lightning on to the ring of lightning. When the Lightning Echo Rasentama makes contact with a surface, it will burst into a massive column of lightning. It causes high amounts of damage. Yoshitsune can use the Truth-Seeking Balls to form powerful weapons and can only be damaged by senjutsu-based abilities. Yoshitsune can cause the Truth-Seeking Balls to also act as a bomb, acting very similar to Tailed Beast Balls in the act, or in a way that mimics Dust Release too. The power of the Six Paths Sage Mode also greatly lessens the strain of using God: August Star of Heaven on Yoshitsune's eyes, body, and chakra, and as such, Yoshitsune will almost always use the technique in this form. Yoshitsune rarely uses this ability, but will activate it should there be a large army or massive threat.

Physical Prowess and Life Force
Yoshitsue is fairly skilled with taijutsu and hand-to-hand combat. Using is above average strength and and great stamina, Yoshitsune can cause great physical damage. With his strength, Yoshitsune can move objects several times his size and weight, though around the size of three of himself is when he truly starts straining himself physically. His great stamina also allows him to fight for days without succumbing to exhaustion, being seemingly perfectly fine even after battling a group of, using a large amount of ninjutsu in the process as well. Using his basic speed, Yoshitsune is able to give a wide range of physical assaults with barrages of strong punches and powerful kicks. Yoshitsune also uses more unorthodox methods, such as slamming his head into foes with a powerful headbutt, and shows no noticeable pain after the fact on himself. Like, Yoshitsune also enhances his taijutsu through the usage of shadow clones, and creates deadly barrages of taijutsu by creating hundreds of shadow clones to attack the enemy from all sides nearly constantly, and combined with his large amount of chakra and control of it, Yoshitsune can use this method just as effectively. When combined with his Six Paths Sage Mode, Yoshitsune physical abilities are increased massively, making his strength, speed, and durability increase massively, allowing Yoshitsune's physical body to become much more like a weapon, and often times, he doesn't even truly need ninjutsu, the Truth-Seeking Balls, or his Rinne Sharingan in this form to devastate his foes, being able to when solely with physical prowess.

Yoshitsune is also blessed with a powerful life force from the power of within him. Possessing the Regeneration Ability, from his brimming life force, much like, Yoshitsune can continue to heal and fight from physical wounds easily, and shows strong pain tolerance in the process. Scratches and cuts on him close within moments of being inflicted with them, and can regenerate his limbs if the need should arise. Yoshitsune notes this takes up a large amount of chakra to do, and is much easier to do when he is in Six Paths Sage Mode. If he should not fall to unnatural causes, Yoshitsune's life force will allow him to live an extremely long life. Yoshitsune even claims he could, in theory, still be fairly active when he is around the age at which finally passed, which is an extraordinary claim as Ōnoki lived an extremely long life.

Bukijutsu
Like many shinobi, Yoshitsune has been trained in the usage of various weapons. From a young age, he was taught the handling of many weapons, such as the very basic shuriken and kunai handling. He excelled in the marksmanship, as was able to pierce the many targets dead-on or close to it. Yoshitsune also knows how to counter many tools and reverse them against their wielder. Using one of his abilities, Yoshitsune can create makeshift weapons on the spot, and as such does not carry any weapons on him on a regular basis. He often uses this to make a sword,, or most commonly a. Yoshitsune can further form any weapon out of his Six Paths chakra through the power of the Susanoo, such as swords, spears, shields, bows, crossbows, hammers, and maces, as well as do a more powerful variation of this with his Truth-Seeking Balls while in Six Paths Sage Mode. The spear also tends to be in the form of a. Yoshitsune seems to start most fights with his black receivers to gauge his foes' style before using his stronger abilities.

Kenjutsu
Yoshitsune eventually obtained a sword which he uses with great skill, made from a chakra rod he produced when he first activated the Rinnegan. He imbues his fire and lightning chakra into the sword to increase its effectiveness. With it he was able to fight against powerful swordsman such as various high-ranking and defeat them. He has also defeated many members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and claims to have bested each sword of the group, though this may be simple boasting, however, it would not be shocking for this to be reality. After manifesting the Rinnegan once more, Yoshitsune stopped carrying his sword with him. He used the ability it granted of manifesting chakra rods to form a blade more durable than most ninja tools, easily slicing through kunai and shuriken while leaving damage on regular swords. He also flows his wind-based chakra through the rods to increase their cutting power, and mostly throws them like javelins. Yoshitsune can form even more powerful swords with his Susanoo to selectively form the chakra colossus' sword in his hand, and also does this with his Truth-Seeking Balls, often merging he Susanoo sword and Truth-Seeking Ball into one blade. His main style seems to be high-speed slashes mixed with motions meant to disarm his foe if they are armed, and attempt to disable them.

Sōjutsu
Yoshitsune also has shown fondness for fighting like a spearman. Using his ability to manifest black rods or by using his Truth-Seeking Balls, Yoshitsune will create a rather long rod with a pointed, bladed head. He can use the spear like a, smacking people with the blunt body of the long weapon, as well as using it to attack. As a spear, Yoshitsune can use it to maintain a level of distance in closer range combat, as all who enter within the range of the spear will be swiftly pierced through with the polearm. By allowing fragments of the spear to break off, when used as a black receiver that is, it allows Yoshitsune to further take control of the foe. Yoshitsune can also throw his spears, and possess remarkable accuracy, being able to hit a target dead that was at least a mile away with his chakra-enhanced throw. Combined with his telepathic control of his black recievers or Truth-Seeking Balls, Yoshitsune can control multiple spears around him as they revolve around him waiting for him to throw or fire them out with great power. For more simple maneuvers, when surrounded, Yoshitsune will grip the spear's body further away from the head to spin with it extended, cutting through many around him in the process, and often on the neck.

Intelligence
Yoshitsune is also quick to discern the nature of a person, if they are friendly or hostile, if they mean to help of do nothing. As Yoshitsune doesn't care for violence, he also possesses great reasoning skill to try and evade unneeded conflict. Yoshitsune is also perceptive, being able to analyze and break down a technique quickly. Yoshitsune can also deceive others well, as well as see through deception. Yoshitsune can quickly plan for a battle too, by analyzing his foe he quickly formulate a plan suited for them. Yoshitsune is also a skilled and adept learner. This is also seen through his breaking down of the power of advanced natures such as Ninigi Senju's Wood Release, and another man's Dust Release, the famous kekkei tōta, and learn all the elements granted to him by the Rinnegan and the Rinne Sharingan, for a few examples. He further could use his Rinne Sharingan to access powers from the Sharingan, Mangekyō Sharingan, and Rinnegan, a feat never before seen, which when combined with the skill he has in his Six Paths Sage Mode, has made Yoshtsune become famously known as the. Yoshitsune also knows information on many bloodlines, such as the blind spot of the Byakugan, which he uses to his advantage to better combat Byakugan wielders he comes across.

Yoshitsune's knowledge of history is also expansive. Yoshitsune has studied the history of the great nations like Konohagakure, Sunagakure, Kirigakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure, as well as lesser villages like Otogakure, Takigakure, and Amegakure, among others. He also holds strong knowledge of the great. He applies this history when fighting foes of these different places to try and predict what their fighting style may be. Being free to roam and help the world, Yoshitsune would also see these places first hand as to gain a firsthand account for himself how these places and the people from them tended to fight and act, and as such would combine it with the historical accounts for an even better understanding. Yoshitsune also possesses knowledge of the and the Shinobi World Wars. Yoshitsune also has explored the three major sage regions, which are the, the , and the and has trained with their various masters to further his knowledge and skill with senjutsu to the utmost degree.

With the activation of his Rinnegan, Yoshitsune went on to read the tablet hidden in the and gained the knowledge it possessed of the, the theft made by , , better known as the "Sage of Six Paths", and of how he defeated the Ten-Tails, made the  from the beast's chakra, imprisoned the  in a rock formation made by his Chibaku Tensei that would become the moon, and gave the human race chakra. He also learned the story of the and the  of the Sage of Six Paths and how the younger was chosen, causing the elder to be fueled by hatred, and how from the elder came the  clan and from the younger the  and  clans were born. To a lesser degree, Yoshitsune also learned of the Sage's brother and his relation to the. Yoshitsune also knows the names of all the tailed beasts, and he is one of the few to refer to them by said names out of respect, having learned them from Hagoromo himself in his mental plane. This tablet also had new additions from Hagoromo after he fixed the errors added in by, information he learned through and  during their battle with his mother Kaguya, as he was still residing in their bodies at that point. With all this, Yoshitsune decided to spread the truth that normally only bearers of the Rinne Sharingan family of eyes could read to the world.
