Kabuto starts to tempt Sasuke into changing sides to help Kabuto to defeat Itachi as he’s now becoming a nuisance for Kabuto himself. Sasuke wants to know the truth about Itachi’s past and why he did what he did. Itachi promises that he will tell him everything after they both defeat Kabuto. Itachi reveals that to defeat Kabuto, they would need to use Izanami which will stop Kabuto’s Edo Tensei.
We start the episode with both the brothers getting along pretty well even thought it seems Sasuke hates Itachi so much. Kabuto says that something may have happened during the defeat of Itachi, but he doesn’t seem to know what Sasuke might have with Itachi. Sasuke says that he wants to know the truth about Itachi’s past. In just a few moments, Kabuto seems to have analysed the way he said “The Truth”, Kabuto had said that he may already know the truth about him but wants him to say it.
Sasuke’s intention of entering the Akatsuki was to destroy the Hidden Leaf because they made Itachi suffer. Sasuke had followed him there, not to have another fight, but to find out the details about the whole story. Itachi had gone so far as to kill his own comrades to protect the leaf, Kabuto questions Sasuke on his will of destroying the Leaf would go against Itachi’s will.
Kabuto asks Sasuke, since they have a similar goal, if Sasuke wants to stab Itachi in the back and come join Kabuto to destroy the Leaf. He then mocks Sasuke and tells him that he shouldn’t feed guilty because he’s not technically betraying Itachi since he’s only a wooden doll.
Sasuke remembers the past where he’s in a bar where some Leaf Ninja’s are talking about Itachi. They mention that he’s a traitor and it’s a good thing that he died. They also mention that he’s one of the most atrocious villains in the village’s history. At this point, Sasuke opens his Sharingan and get’s really pissed off. Beside him is Tobi, who’s trying to calm him down, he mentions that they don’t know the truth about Itachi and he’s duties, he had done this to save the Leaf Villages themselves.
Kabuto explains that he and Itachi are the same since they both had no purpose in the end. Kabuto, as a child had been grown to be a spy, he traveled to many countries to spy with different names and identities. In the end, he had forgotten his own identity he was no trusted by the village and thus removed from any missions. Kabuto explains that he understands perfectly how Sasuke works, and that he can be he’s older brother.
Itachi interrupts to tell Sasuke that he’s a better liar then himself, thus he should stop listening to him. Itachi explains that the Village has a dark side, but he is still Hidden Leaf’s Itachi Uchiha. Itachi explains that he want wants to tell him one more thing, and he will tell him his after they have settled their battle with Kabuto here.
Kabuto boasts that he is the performer of the Edo Tensei (Impure World Resurrection/Reanimation) and that he’s recovery speed is very quick that any damage to him would render useless. Itachi explains to Sasuke that he doesn’t understand the real strength of the Uchiha. Itachi explains that Uchiha Eyes have the ability to effect a perfect regardless of their 5 Senses. Sasuke replies to Izanagi, Itachi asks how he knows about Izanagi, Sasuke replies with the fight with Danzou. Itachi is impressed that he survived it.
Itachi explains that it’s similar to Izanagi but is very different. The Ultimate Eye Jutsu That Holds Kabuto’s Destiny. As Kabuto comes for an attack and pushes Itachi back while Itachi shouts Izanami, he then explains that, Izanagi is a jutsu that changes destiny, while Izanami can decide destiny. Itachi explains that Sasuke should stay close to him since the Kin Jutsu has been released. The chapter ends here.
What an amazing fight this is turning out to be! Itachi and Sasuke are finally fighting together, as one for that matter. Sasuke keeps waiting for Itachi’s story while Itachi prolongs it until the end of the Edo Tensei. I can’t wait for next week’s Naruto 582, where the fight will carry on, hopefully we’ll get to see Kabuto’s getting beaten up by Itachi and Sasuke.
