Naruto: 6 Characters Who Are Immune To Ninjutsu

These Naruto characters are completely immune to ninjutsu.

Certain individuals manage to take their Sharingan to the next level, which leads to them awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan. Each individual’s Mangekyou Sharingan has a unique ability, but there is one that is common among all, and that is the Susanoo. It is a massive chakra cloak that can only be used by characters who have Mangekyou Sharingan in both eyes. Naturally, only a few characters in Naruto have access to the Susanoo and its perks.


6 Shisui Uchiha

Shisui Uchiha was the strongest Uchiha of his generation. He was Itachi’s best friend and mentor. The two of them had similar ideas, which is why they got along rather well. Shisui was exposed to the horrors of war when he was still a child. As a result, Shisui awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan.

His dojutsu’s special ability was the Kotoamatsukami, which was considered the strongest normal genjutsu. Since Shisui had Mangekyou Sharingan in both eyes, he could theoretically use the Susanoo. While he didn’t use it in the manga, Shisui’s Susanoo was featured in one of the games.

Itachi Uchiha is among the most loved anime characters. From a young age, he showed everyone around him that he was not someone to be trifled with. As he grew up, Itachi’s combat skills continued to improve, and they reached the point where he could take down Jonin-level ninjas with a stare.

Itachi’s traumatic experiences helped him awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, which in turn enabled him to use techniques such as Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi. Furthermore, Itachi was also able to use the Susanoo. Itachi’s Susanoo was orange in color, and it was armed with the Sword of Totsuka and the Yata Mirror. The sword could seal away anything that it touched, while the Yata Mirror could nullify any jutsu used against Itachi. The combo of these two things made Itachi almost invincible.

4 Madara Uchiha

Madara's Complete Susanoo


Madara Uchiha was the leader of the Uchiha Clan during the Warring States Period. After a lot of persuasion from Hashirama, Madara decided to stop fighting. The two founded the Hidden Leaf Village, but things turned sour shortly after, and Madara went rogue.

Madara was one of the two Uchiha who possessed the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. So, he had no problem using the Susanoo. The power of Madara’s Susanoo was comparable to that of a tailed beast, which was a big compliment in itself. Madara famously used the Susanoo in the fight against Hashirama, where he used it to cover the body of the Nine Tails. Unfortunately for him, that didn’t make a difference in the outcome of the fight.

3 Indra Otsutsuki

Indra Otsutsuki was the eldest son of Hagoromo Otsutsuki. He inherited his father’s visual prowess, so he ended up with the Sharingan. As a genius, it didn’t take long for Indra to learn and master his dojutsu. With every successful endeavor, Indra grew more and more confident.

He was sure that he would succeed Hagoromo, but the latter chose Asura. This decision infuriated Indra, who swore to seek revenge. While Indra was considered the favorite to win, Asura was ready to shock his brother and the rest of the world. The two brothers went all out, which means that Indra used the Susanoo in the fight. Despite his best efforts, Indra couldn’t get the better of Asura and had to leave the place.

2 Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke Uchiha is among the strongest ninjas of all time. Even at a young age, Sasuke was able to fight against adults without any problems. Everyone within the village knew that Sasuke had immense potential, and that he was destined for great things. Sasuke awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan after witnessing the death of his beloved older brother, Itachi.

Once Sasuke had the Mangekyou Sharingan at his disposal, he was free to use the Susanoo as much as he wanted. To counter any side effects of using the Mangekyou Sharingan, Sasuke decided to implant Itachi’s eyes into his own. This helped him gain the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which reduced the chakra consumption of all skills associated with the dojutsu. Sasuke has often used the Susanoo to protect himself and others from deadly attacks. With time, his control improved to the point where he could use his Susanoo to channel the chakra of all the nine tailed beasts.


1 Kakashi Hatake

Kakashi's Perfect Susanoo

Kakashi Hatake received his Sharingan from his best friend, Obito Uchiha, under rather extraordinary circumstances. When the right side of Obito’s body was crushed by a boulder, the Uchiha knew that he wouldn’t be able to make it out alive. So he gave his Sharingan to Kakashi. The latter’s body could not support the Sharingan perfectly, but he still managed to use it better than most Uchiha.

Kakashi only had one eye for the majority of the series, so he couldn’t use the Susanoo. It was only during the Fourth Great Ninja War that Obito gave him Six Paths chakra and both of his eyes. With the new power-up, Kakashi was able to use the Susanoo. Aside from the usual perks of a Susanoo, Kakashi’s chakra humanoid could throw a shuriken toward an opponent and warp them away. Needless to say, it is easily the strongest Susanoo in the series.
