Kenji Uchiha(うちはシスイ, Uchiha Kenji) Renowned as "Kenji of the Izanagi" (毛絵んじあ, Elite no Izanagi; Kenji English TV：").

Appearance

Shisui had dark unkempt short hair and a relatively broad nose. His eyes were also presumable dark as customary of most of the members of the clan (although his eyes have not been seen without the Sharingan activated). He also had markings around his eyes that were turned upwards at each end. In the anime however these lines are broken instead of whole. He seemingly also wore the standard attire of the Uchiha clan which includes a high collared dark outfit along with a tantō strapped to the right side of his shoulder.

Personality

Shisui was Itachi's best friend; in fact, Itachi thought of him as an older brother. However, Shisui was also very devoted to the clan, which is why the Konoha Military Police Force asked him to spy on Itachi. It is because of this devotion that the police did not believe he could have committed suicide. Along with his clan, Shisui was devoted to the protection of the village which he cared for deeply. With this in mind, he entrusted his left eye to Itachi and told him to protect the village. According to Itachi, he and Naruto Uzumaki held similar ideals and goals.

Although conscious of his abilities and status, Shisui remained a very humble man, likening to keep any of his responsibilities and powers out of his free time. In contrast to his best friend Itachi, who had always been more serious and silent in his ways, Shisui was a sociable, trustworthy guy who could mostly be spotted with a smile around his lips. According to Itachi, Shisui was always the one to tell him to 'loosen up' and enjoy actions without thinking about the consequences. even so, while on duty, Shisui was a very serious, compassionate man placing comrades and clan above the rules.

History

Shisui entrusting Itachi before his death

Shisui was noted to be one of the most talented members of the Uchiha clan. At some point in the past, he fought with Ao. Ao retains an acute memory of Shisui's chakra and ability to control others with his Sharingan.

About six months after joining the ANBU, Itachi began to act oddly, and Shisui was instructed by the Konoha Military Police Force to keep tabs on him. Soon afterwards Shisui was found drowned in the Naka River with a suicide note stating that he was tired of carrying out the clan's duties. The police suspected that Itachi had murdered him and used his Sharingan to fake the suicide note, since Shisui was very devoted to the clan, and suicide would have been highly unusual and uncharacteristic. Itachi later told Sasuke that he did kill Shisui and forged the suicide note, all in order to awaken his own Mangekyō Sharingan. Shisui's corpse has apparently disappeared, as Kabuto Yakushi cannot locate it.

However, Itachi later revealed the truth behind the incident stating that the last time he met Shisui, Danzō Shimura had already taken one of his eyes. Shisui then entrusted the other to Itachi telling him to protect the village and in order to prevent conflict from arising over his eyes, made it appear as though he had crushed them before dying. He would later erase his existence leaving no corpse behind.

Trivia

• Shisui's name has two interpretable meanings. Combining the words Shi (死, Death) and Sui (水, Water), Shisui would mean "death water", which is a reference to his supposed death by drowning. "Shisui" (止水) alone means "still water" or "stagnant water".
