Chapter 390: "Final Jutsu... !!" - Amaterasu Burns Out Sasuke's
Chapter 390: "Final Jutsu... !!" - Amaterasu Burns Out Sasuke's
Chapter 393: "My Eyes...!!" -As the Yamata is sealed away into the
gourd, one small white snake slithers among the rubble to escape.
Itachi winces in pain and Zetsu figures Itachi has the battle in hand
finally. Itachi states that Sasuke's eyes are now his and he will savor
this moment. Suddenly he grabs his chest and doubles over, coughing
up blood. The armor of the Susanoo begins to fade and Sasuke takes
the opportunity to hurl a kunai tied to explosive notes. It explodes
against Susanoo's shield leaving Itachi undamaged. As Itachi begins to
slowly walk towards Sasuke, his younger brother hurls more kunai and
explosive tags in the hopes of stopping his advance. The shield
continues to deflect all the attacks and Zetsu comments that the shield
is Yata's Mirror, another legendary object said to counter any attack.
Together with the Sword of Totsuka, Itachi's unbeatable. Itachi reaches
out a bloody hand and Sasuke lunges at him with his Kusanagi. Sasuke
and the blade are knocked away and as he stands he suddenly finds
himself pinned between rubble and Susanoo. As he watches in fear,
Itachi reaches out to remove Sasuke's eyes. As his fingers draw near,
Itachi's mutters to himself. His bloody fingers draw near Sasuke's
eye... but instead poke him in the forehead and Itachi collapses to the
ground. Susanoo disperses and the white snake continues its journey.
A stunned Sasuke can only stand still as his bloody older brother lies
on the ground beside him, somehow defeated.
Chapter 395: "The Mysterious Tobi" -Shino sends his bugs surging
towards Tobi. Tobi jumps away, offering his further disgust. Kakashi
states the Aburame fight by dispersing their bugs and taking control of
a wide area. The bugs spread to fill the air around Tobi. Kakashi offers
that their opponent is now trapped. Shino thinks that any movement
will be detected and he will learn how Tobi's jutsu works. He then
forms a bug sphere which moves towards Tobi. Shino offers that he'll
take care of him, because he's part of the mission and to make up for
missing out last time. The bugs engulf Tobi and Sakura marvels at
Shino's control. Hinata states Tobi is still within the bugs and Yamato
extends his wood. Shino states the bugs are sucking up Tobi's chakra
and Naruto yells for him to take it all. Suddenly the bugs disperse,
revealing a missing Tobi. The team looks on in surprise and Sakura
asks if it was Shunshin? Shino says no, as that's just fast movement
which he could detect. Kakashi considers if it was a space/time
technique, but decides that can't be true, as there were no hand seals
or summoning marks. Such a jutsu would surpass even the Fourth
Hokage's technique. Yamato wonders if he can simply cease to exist?
Sakura states that might be the case, it would explain how he avoided
Naruto's earlier attack as well, by simply removing portions of his
body. Hinata searches the area again and locates Tobi on a nearby tree
limb. Tobi greets the team and Kiba jumps to attack with his Tsuuga
technique. Tobi sidesteps the attack, causing Kiba to drill through the
limb and plant himself into the ground. A dizzy Kiba offers that he
slipped through Tobi, but Hinata states he simply dodged it. Zetsu
emerges beside Tobi and Sakura asks what that is. Kakashi states the
figure is in Kabuto's Akatsuki file. Zetsu states that Sasuke won the
battle and that Itachi died. The team is shocked and Tobi offers that
that was a big surprise!... but not really. He expected that. Zetsu
states Sasuke collapsed afterwards and is barely hanging on. Naruto
and Sakura are shocked and determined by the news. Naruto demands
Sasuke's location from "spiky aloe" man, which Zetsu takes offense to.
As Kakashi looks on he reacts in shock to the Sharingan visible in
Tobi's mask hole. Tobi as Madara states he'll deal with them some
other time...
Chapter 397: "The Man Who Knows the Truth" -As Tobi keeps his
mask over a portion of his face, Sasuke's Sharingan eye begins to
bleed. Suddenly the tomoe combine into a Mangekyou resembling
Itachi's. Tobi is surprised and suddenly his right shoulder bursts into
Amaterasu flames. He stumbles back into the darkness, dropping his
mask. Sasuke grabs his eye in pain and it quickly returns to normal.
Sasuke asks what that was and Tobi states it was the Amaterasu Itachi
planted within him. He picks his mask up from the darkness and places
it back on. A surprised Sasuke looks on in confusion. Tobi explains that
Itachi must have planned ahead, as he equipped his little brother with
his own jutsu either to kill or protect him from Madara. Madara
explains that it appears to be activated by being within site of his
Sharingan. He then considers that he's fortunate to have kept his own
secrets from Itachi as well. Sasuke says he has no idea what Madara is
talking about. Madara then asks if Itachi did anything before he died.
Sasuke thinks back to the bloody tap his brother made on his
forehead. Madara explains that Itachi somehow transferred his power
into his brother. Sasuke says that makes no sense. Madara says it
should be apparent... it was all to protect you Sasuke. Sasuke is
stunned but then asks if that's supposed to be a sick joke. Madara
explains that it's like he said, Sasuke did not truly know his brother.
Sasuke offers that he's tired of the lies, if they don't stop he'll kill him.
Madara says he understands Sasuke's feelings but they're the truth.
The person who helped Itachi that night was he himself, so he knows
the truth of his brother. Sasuke becomes angry and tells Madara to get
the hell away from him. Madara says that's not the right path, it's his
duty to ask questions. He should know about the man who risked
everything to protect Konoha and his little brother. Sasuke should
know how Uchiha Itachi lived!
