Naruto: Is Shisui Uchiha Still Alive?

One of the biggest debates in the Naruto universe is who is the strongest Uchiha. 

Some think that Madara Uchiha is the strongest. 

There are also those who say that Uchiha Sasuke is the strongest Uchiha, especially after he has the Rinnegan. 

There are also those who think that the strongest is Itachi Uchiha.

Talking about Itachi Uchiha, there are actually opinions that say that Itachi Uchiha's strength level is still below his partner, Shisui. 

The figure of Shisui Uchiha is one of the characters from the Uchiha clan who is no less popular, even though his appearance is only briefly in the story. 

Shisui is also one of Konoha's Jonin with extraordinary talent and skill.

Itachi himself saw the figure of Shisui as his own brother or sister, at which time Shisui had transformed into a deadly shinobi who joined the ANBU team. 

Shisui is one of Konoha's protectors. 

He protects his village from various enemies with his powerful abilities such as the Body Flicker technique, which is similar to teleportation.

His fighting abilities and tactical abilities make Shisui a legendary figure, even though he is still very young. 

All of this happened thanks to the Mangekyou Sharingan awakened within him. 

At one point during the third great shinobi war, Shisui witnessed someone close to him die.

This later became a factor in the emergence of the Mangekyou Sharingan in him. 

Using the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui can manipulate people and his enemies in a dream or illusion thanks to Genjutsu techniques. 

The awesomeness of Shisui's Genjutsu was also recognized by Hiruzen Sarutobi. 

In fact, he even asked Shisui to use his Genjutsu to stop their thirst for power over war.

Unfortunately, Shisui's extraordinary strength also invites evil intentions from another figure, Danzo. 

Danzo, who is very thirsty for power and strength, is always trying to get the power of Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan. 

His goal is none other than to rule Konoha.

A sad moment then appeared where Shisui decided to end his life by jumping into the Naka river. 

Before deciding to end his life, Shisui had time to give the last eye he had to Itachi, after Shisui's other eye was stolen by Danzo.

This incident inevitably made Itachi sad and devastated, which was also what later awakened Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan. 

Itachi then decided to pretend to kill Shisui, so that Sasuke could take revenge for all the actions experienced and done by Danzo.

Shisui Still Alive?

The death of Shisui is undoubtedly a tragic story. 

However, Shisui's death also sparked debate among fans. 

Most fans speculate that Shisui is actually still alive. 

How then was Shisui still alive when he was shown jumping from a waterfall? 

In real life, those who jump from waterfalls are often shown not to survive.

There is a theory which states that the reason why Shisui was then considered still alive was because Shisui's body or body had never been found. 

This also raises speculation as above, which could indeed happen. 

Moreover, as an Uchiha, perhaps Shisui's endurance was extraordinary.

On the other hand, trying to kill himself could be a trick like Itachi's, pretending to be Shisui's killer. 

Even so, until now, Masashi Kishimoto himself had not given any clues about the possibility of Shisui still being alive. 

Which meant the question of whether Shisui was still alive, then the definite answer was no. 

Shisui was confirmed dead.

However, as mentioned above, in the absence of evidence of Shisui's corpse, it is possible that he is actually still alive. 

Then, as Amado did to Jiraiya by cloning Kashin Koji, it is not impossible if then there was a clone of Shisui who later appeared in the story.

If this is indeed proven, of course it will be extraordinary and will become a topic of discussion among fans. 

But, for sure, for now it could be confirmed that Shisui was already dead after jumping off the waterfall. What do you think?
