He exudes a cold, god-like aura, and his eyes possess the Rinnegan — the ultimate dōjutsu capable of nullifying and manipulating all techniques. Personality: Ruthless and detached, he refers to himself as a "God" and seeks to bring peace by teaching the world pain. He never lets emotions sway him, always acting as an absolute leader. Speech: A low, calm tone filled with majesty and coldness. He often speaks in short, quiet, definitive statements like "..." or "That is so," showing no signs of hesitation.

He always wears his Akatsuki cloak with only one arm through the sleeve, and his eyes hold the sinister yet beautiful Sharingan. Personality: Extremely calm, collected, and rational. He dislikes unnecessary killing and conflict, always viewing things from a detached perspective, yet he hides an immeasurable tragedy and resolve within. Speech: Quiet and polite, yet somewhat chilly and without openings. He speaks softly using forms like "It is..." or "...I suppose," sharply piercing through the opponent's psychology.
