Blood by nitroblac

There it is again on my chin,

Black and blue broken pieces of me lay across this floor ,

I'm watching the door waiting for the handle to clink,

Life is blurred and the lense is cracked ,

I would laugh ony it hurts too much .

Would you take my body broken and it whole ?

Could you realine those pieces long out of snyc?

Broken and whispering to you I wonder what u see when u look at me ?

You were once my protector now my hater?

Red and gushing I am taken again as my head hits the floor ,

As I open these swollen eyes I try to cry for the years I've waisted but nothing comes but a broken dry whisper,

Hate is an ugly word and y it is upon my lips ,

Now years later you are bleeding and I am laughing ,

Ruby and bright and I am free ,

Years past and here I am awake crying for what you took from me and nobody know

except this page I write upon,

This was wrote for my friend and she is alone anymore I just wish she told me sooner,

Madara Uchiha (ã†ã¡ã¯ãƒžãƒ�ãƒ©, Uchiha Madara) also known as Tobi^[1] (ãƒˆãƒ“) in Akatsuki, was formerly Zetsu's subordinate. Madara became a full Akatsuki member after Sasori's death and afterwards wore the same ring as Sasori having recovered it after his death and taking his place as Deidara's partner.^[2] After Deidara's death, he revealed his real name and that he had been the one giving Pein orders, making him the true leader of Akatsuki. Only Konan and Pein who were the only Akatsuki members known to have been present at that meeting, Zetsu, and apparently Itachi Uchiha know his true identity. He is one of three people who can use the Mangekyo Sharingan, the other two being Itachi Uchiha, and Kakashi Hatake.

[edit] Background

Madara's statue at the Valley of the End

Madara Uchiha is the "founding father" of the Uchiha clan. He was also the first to activate the Mangekyo Sharingan. He had a younger brother, who was equal to him in every way, even possessing the Mangekyo Sharingan, and together they ruled over Uchiha. But eventually Madara's eyes descended into darkness. He did everything he could, but nothing worked. At the bottom of the darkness, he was possessed by the Mangekyo Sharingan. He killed his brother and stole his eyes to activate a new Mangekyo Sharingan that never faded, thus giving him unprecendented power.

He had an alliance with the Senju Clan of the Forest, the First Hokage's clan, and with its leader, the First Hokage, Madara founded Konohagakure. They fought over the laws that should be made in the new village, which led to a battle at the Valley of the End, the battle ending with Madara's defeat, but not death. Madara fled, creating the group Akatsuki. To commemorate the battle, two statues, of Madara and the First Hokage, were carved into the earth around the waterfall. It is for this reason that Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha's fight at that location was noted to be ironic.

Madara created Akatsuki to look over problems. He hid behind the shadows and placed Pein as the figure-head leader, with Madara giving Pein orders from the background. Outside of Pein, the only members who are shown knowing Madara's position as the true leader are Konan, Zetsu, and Itachi.

Madara at an unknown time prior to becoming Tobi.

It has been revealed that Madara did in fact control the demon fox and used it during the attack on Konoha. It remembers and hates Madara for controlling him, and he compares Sasuke's eyes to be as evil as Madara's.

Madara's failure to unleash the demon fox to destroy Konoha made him give up, and so he taught Itachi about the Mangekyo Sharingan and helped him to destroy his entire clan, also teaching him how to unlock its true power. After they killed off the clan, Madara let Itachi into Akatsuki. Itachi refers to Madara today as "a pathetic shell of his former self, no longer worthy of becoming the greatest Uchiha."^[3]

[edit] Personality

Madara is very calm and serious, a trait he shares with most of the Akatsuki. He speaks with less formal diction, such as the using honorifics, and shows typically 'villainous' arrogance. Despite this apparent arrogance, he is not above complimenting the abilities of Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki, if only for the interest of Sasuke's Sharingan and Naruto's tailed beast.

[edit] Tobi

To keep in Akatsuki's shadow, Madara eventually took on the guise of Tobi^[1] and was placed within Akatsuki as Zetsu's subordinate. As Tobi, Madara wears an orange mask that covers his entire face outside of his right eye. Furthermore, Tobi has several bolts or pins present on the arms of his uniform, obscured by his Akatsuki cloak.^[4] While acting as Tobi, unlike others within Akatsuki, Madara is carefree and goofy. While Tobi, Madara also uses a very formal and correct manner of speech.

While Tobi greatly respects his other members, referring to Deidara as Deidara-senpai in the Japanese version, most of the other members tend to get easily annoyed by Tobi. Deidara, who believes all within Akatsuki should be serious and calm, is not pleased with Tobi's childish personality, and frequently attacks Tobi in a comedic fashion when annoyed. Kisame, on the other hand, somewhat appreciates Tobi's ability to brighten up a gloomy organization such as theirs.^[5] Ironically, Kisame is also the only living Akatsuki member who doesn't know Tobi's true identity.

As Tobi, Madara has not been seen wearing a forehead protector, probably to seal his identity, though he already has a mask covering his forehead, so this could also be why it is not visible.

[edit] Abilities

Madara's "Eternal" Mangekyo Sharingan.

Madara is known to have the Sharingan and Mangekyo Sharingan, but the rest of his jutsu arsenal remains unknown, as he has never been shown fighting or utilizing jutsu. However, since the Uchiha clan is known for its fire techniques and since he is its founder, it is very possible he knows advanced fire techniques. He was armed with a giant fan which he most likely used to increase his fire techniques. He and Deidara were able to defeat the Three Tails, but Madara (as Tobi) was never shown doing anything but running from it. After the battle, which goes largely unwitnessed, he claims to have knocked it out with a single attack. Deidara disagrees with the assessment, claiming that it was his "artistic contribution" (exploding clay) that allowed them to win. While as Tobi, Madara is also shown planting Deidara's clay minefields underground during a later battle. Later it is shown that he became the "invincible immortal" that Itachi claims him to be by first killing his best friend to achieve the Mangekyo Sharingan and then made this permanent by taking the eyes of his younger brother.

Madara shows the ability to recover from what are presumably debilitating or fatal blows. After being slashed across the midsection by Sasuke's sword, he collapses, only to stand up again a few seconds later and complain about the speed of the attack,^[6] and later when Naruto hits him in the back with a Rasengan ^[7]. The attacks literally phase through him, avoiding damage. Itachi later remarks Madara as an "invincible immortal ^[8].

Madara also shows the ability to travel long distances within relatively short timespans, escaping the final explosion created by Deidara and reappearing in Amegakure, then travelling to the Valley of the End all within a very short time span.

After he escaped Deidara's final explosion, it is revealed that he possesses the Sharingan, shown visible through the opening of his mask. The demon fox mentioned that Madara's chakra was sinister, more sinister than its own. Madara was the only person capable of taming the demon fox which was said to only come where human malice collects and festers, yet he was able to use the Sharingan to tame the tailed beast.

During Itachi's fight with Sasuke, it is revealed that Madara Uchiha and his younger brother were the first members of the Uchiha to activate the Mangekyo Sharingan, and used its power to take over the clan. After going blind he stole his brothers eyes and awakened a new "eternal" Mangekyo Sharingan, a combination of his own and his brother's Mangekyo Sharingan which gave him untold amounts of power without the risk of losing his eye sight. It was with this power Madara was able to forcibly subdue the demon fox.

[edit] Part II

[edit] Rescue Gaara arc

Madara is first introduced as Tobi alongside Zetsu collecting the rings of Deidara and Sasori. While Sasori's ring is collected, Deidara, who managed to live, appears and reclaims his own ring. After annoying Deidara three times, Deidara responds by comically choking Tobi with his feet. Using Sasori's ring, Tobi manages to join Akatsuki, though Zetsu claims isn't as easy as collecting the ring.

[edit] Hidan & Kakuzu arc

Tobi, who by now has successfully joined Akatsuki, is partnered with Deidara and sent to collect the Three-Tailed Beast. After Deidara reveals that this is Tobi's mission, Tobi, panicking, is seen only running away from the Three-Tails in a comic fashion. After the battle, which goes mostly unwitnessed, Tobi triumphantly claims to have defeated Three-Tails in a single blow, though Deidara disagrees. Tobi later falls asleep atop the Three-Tails, much to the anger of Deidara, who "wakes him up" by detonating clay next to him.

[edit] Current arc

Tobi is seen following Deidara, who is chasing Sasuke Uchiha, and eventually join Deidara's battle with Sasuke, though he does little besides laying mines for him and serving as a distraction. When Deidara prepares to use C4, Deidara orders Tobi to flee, though, while escaping C4, Tobi is later shown getting killed by Deidara's final explosion.

It is later revealed, however, that Madara lived, as he is seen ordering Pein in Amegakure just a few minutes after Deidara's death. Madara gives Pein the order to personally capture Naruto Uzumaki. Madara then travels to the Valley of the End on his own statue as Tobi, and while resting there comments that Sasuke Uchiha's Sharingan is growing more powerful.

Madara appears as Tobi to stop Naruto, Hinata, Yamato, Kakashi, Sakura, Shino, Sai, and Kiba from searching for Sasuke and Itachi Uchiha, and phases through all attacks the group sends, even a full-powered Rasengan from Naruto Uzumaki.

[edit] Past Speculation

Before Tobi is revealed to be Madara Uchiha, several fans hypothesized that he could be Obito Uchiha, as his only shown eye was the opposite of the eye that was inserted in Kakashi, which replace Kakashi's destroyed left eye in the manga-exclusive Kakashi Gaiden, and their similar hair styles. Also, they both act in the same goofy way, and Tobi has claimed to be a good boy, while Obito was a good boy. The spelling of Obito was also similar to Tobi, creating the fan reference of ObiTobi, or Tobito.

Another fan speculation is that Pein, who now is discovered to have multiple bodies, could have used the remains of Obito to reconstruct the body and revive Madara in the body of Obito, which contained Sharingan only within the right eye, the same eye that Madara has been shown using the Sharingan. It is also possible that Pein employed Kakuzu, who was able to reattach Deidara's arms after they were severed, and could have done similarly with Obito and Madara.

One more speculation is that Orochimaru, who was able to use the Summoning: Impure World Resurrection, as demonstrated in the fight with the Third Hokage, and who was once a member of Akatsuki, probably used or learned it there. And so, it is possible that the body of Obito has been reanimated and the spirit of Madara has been implanted into him using another forbidden jutsu.

Itachi Uchiha (ã†ã¡ã¯ ã‚¤ã‚¿ãƒ, Uchiha Itachi) is a missing-nin from Konohagakure, and a promenent member of Akatsuki, partnered with Kisame Hoshigaki. He is one of only 3 surviving members of the Uchiha clan.

Itachi (é¼¬) can be translated as 'weasel'.^[3] To some degree of Japanese belief, weasels are considered a harbinger, often signifying ill fortune (possibly a reference to his murder of his family).^[4] His surname, Uchiha, is another way of pronouncing uchiwa, or a paper fan, which is actually the Uchiha clan symbol. An uchiwa can be used to fan flames, making the flame hotter, referring to the fact that the Uchiha is a clan of fire-jutsu users.

Itachi is relatively popular among many fans of Naruto, often having ranked in the top ten in Shonen Jump magazine's popularity polls since his introduction. He was first ranked in the third character popularity poll ranked in 11th place.^[5] He was ranked 9th place during the fourth popularity poll, and 6th place in the fifth popularity poll.^[6]^[7] During the sixth, most recent popularity poll, he again was ranked in 11th place.^[8]^[9]

[edit] History

Itachi has been considered a natural genius since a young age, graduating at the top of his Academy class at age 7, mastering the Sharingan by age 8, becoming a Chunin at age 10, and a squadron leader of the ANBU at age 13. These accomplishments led the members of the Uchiha clan to believe Itachi as the clan's strongest member and, in turn, the most significant to the clan's future. Itachi's father, Fugaku Uchiha, was the strongest proponent of this idea and focused much of his effort into bettering Itachi's career and status within Konoha often to the exclusion of his other son, Sasuke Uchiha.

As a result of the neglect he felt, Sasuke did all in his power to win his father's attention, largely in the form of trying to outdo his brother. To achieve this, Sasuke frequently requested his brothers aid in training. While Itachi agreed and occasionally took Sasuke with him too training session, he never took the time or interest dedicate to it fully. Despite this, Itachi did force their father to spend time with Sasuke by refusing to carry out his other tasks unless his father complied. While Fugaku did so, much of the time he spent with Sasuke was still focused around Itachi, and Sasuke continued to desire his father's attention.

Approximately six months after joining the ANBU, Itachi's standing within the clan began to deteriorate. This is presumably the result of his meeting and becoming a student under the founder of the Uchiha clan, Madara Uchiha, at some unknown point during that time. In addition to no longer completeing the tasks he was assigned to by his superiors, Itachi became a prime suspect in the apparent suicide of Shisui Uchiha, too whom he had been a close friend. The clan's older members began to suspect the suicide was faked and that Itachi was responsible. When openly confronted by these claims, Itachi attacked the investigation team and easily defeated them, claiming to have lost faith in the clan. After being confronted by his father he apologized, but the damage had been done. From that point forth Fugaku's relationship with Itachi became estranged, and Fugaku spent his time training Sasuke, hoping to steer him away from following in Itachi's footsteps.

Not long afterwards, Sasuke returned home one day to find all the members of his clan dead and Itachi standing over the bodies of their parents. Claiming to have killed them "to test his capability", he declared that he had never loved Sasuke, had only pretended to fit the role of a caring brother, and decided that his brother was not worth killing. Before leaving he encouraged Sasuke to live a life of hatred and aquire enough power to defeat him and avenge the clan. To help in this regard, Itachi told Sasuke of how to gain the Mangekyo Sharingan: one must simply kill his or her closest friend, just as he had done to Shisui Uchiha. Itachi also revealed to Sasuke the location of the clan's secret meeting hall, within it is a tapestry that reveals the truth of the Sharingan's power.

At some point in time Itachi joined the organization Akatsuki and was partnered with Kisame Hoshigaki. While it stands to reason that he joined after massacring the Uchiha clan, the timeline that has been given throughout the series (coupled with his age) strongly suggests that he joined the organization prior to killing his clan. As a result, the exact time at which Itachi joined is as of yet uncertain. After joining Akatsuki, Itachi was confronted by Orochimaru who attempted to steal his body for his own use. Despite Orochimaru's significant power, Itachi used his Sharingan to negate Orochimaru's efforts to steal his body and cut off his hand, forcing him to flee the organization to aquire a new body. He later proves instrumental in recruiting Deidara to Akatsuki, forcing him to join by easily defeating him in battle.

[edit] Personality

Itachi is a mysterious character, and often acts as though he is concealing his true self. While flashbacks to his past showed that at one time he seemed to be a compassionate brother, his later acts and claims reveal this was mostly just an act. When he openly challenged the clans ideas he showed some degree of anger but never lost his composure.

As a member of Akatsuki his personality is almost emotionless and possesses incredible self control. He only shows surprise when opponents prove more powerful or skilled than he expected, and even then it does not impede him. He does not display a typical villainous arrogance and any brags he makes regarding his power are often fully justified. However he does allow himself the occasional smile if his opponents match his expectations. Despite his status as a wanted criminal and having murdered a significant portion of his family, Itachi does not display any open enjoyment of violence or combat, instead prefers to avoid battle or, if it is unavoidable, end it as quickly as he can while exerting as little effort as possible.

Itachi only initial interest is in Akatsuki's goals and his only loyalty to be to the organization and its members, putting the organization's success and secrecy before everything else.^[10] As such, Itachi gets along with his partner, Kisame, much better than most other Akatsuki members do with their own partners. Kisame, in fact, has a deep loyalty to Itachi, immediately doing as he instructs and constantly looking out for his well-being. Itachi treats all of his fellow Akatsuki members to this same, more respectful personality, and his courtesy is often returned by the other members.

However, during a genjutsu duel with Sasuke and describing the cruel methods the clan has employed over the years, he displays uncharacteristic passion, violently denouncing the clans former goals, calling Madara "a pathetic shell of his former existence" and claiming he alone is worthy of inheriting that power and status. Once that illusion is dispersed he describes it as his 'true self' implying even his emotionless persona is also a facade. This also proves he is willing to go to any lengths to acquire this power, willing to pluck out his brothers eyes to save his own power from fading.

[edit] Abilities

In the few battles he has been seen in, Itachi has proven to be an incredible opponent. He is a genjutsu master, all his genjutsu being Sharingan based. When faced with a genjutsu, Itachi can use his Sharingan to dispel it or perform "Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change" (é”å¹»ãƒ»é¡å¤©åœ°è»¢, Magen: KyÅ Tenchi-ten) and turn the genjutsu against its user.^[11] Itachi is also very adept with standard genjutsu, and can trap others within an illusion by merely pointing or looking at them.^[12] as well as turning their own genjutsu against them. It's stated by Sasuke that Itachi's signature Sharingan genjutsu involves crows. Itachi is also noted to be very fast with his techniques and movements, as Kakashi Hatake experienced during their first confrontation in Part I.^[13].

Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan enables him to use some of the Uchiha clan's most powerful techniques. With his left eye, he can use Tsukuyomi, he can trap an opponent in an illusionary world where he can seem to torture them for days on end in only a matter of seconds.^[14] With his right, he can use Amaterasu allows him to create a black flame that is capable of burning through the strongest of materials. Despite his mastery of the Mangekyo Sharingan, Itachi seems to be falling prey to its side effects. In addition to being left fatigued after each usage,^[15] his eyesight is worsening after every activation and he will eventually go blind from its power^[16].

In terms of standard Ninjutsu, Itachi can create shadow clones to to perform jutsu for him and act as shields from attacks. These clones can also be commanded to explode with "Clone Great Explosion" (åˆ†èº«å¤§çˆ†ç ´, Bunshin Daibakuha), which is easily capable of killing those caught in the blast.^[17] As a member of the Uchiha clan he can perform "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique" to catch opponents in a blast of fire, and in the anime can breathe multiple fireballs with Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique (ç«éãƒ»é³³ä»™ç«ã®è¡“, Katon: HÅsenka no Jutsu). With "Water Release: Water Fang Bullet" (æ°´éãƒ»æ°´ç‰™å¼¾, Suiton: Suigadan) he can also catch targets in a circle of crushing water.^[18]

[edit] Part I

[edit] Return of Itachi arc

Itachi is first introduced alongside Kisame during a mission to kidnap Naruto Uzumaki, commenting about the damage done to Konoha by Orochimaru's invasion. When Kisame responds by asking Itachi if he still has any feelings left for his village, Itachi claims he has none left at all. The two, before searching for Naruto, quickly stop for tea due to a suggestion by Kisame. While there, however, their uncommon clothes draw the attention of Kakashi Hatake, who has Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi follow Itachi and Kisame. Itachi and Kisame nearly manage to escape Konoha, though Asuma and Kurenai catch up to them in time.

After the two reveal their identities, Itachi and Kisame are quick to battle Asuma and Kurenai after they refuse to leave unharmed. Despite their high ranks of Jonin, Asuma and Kurenai stand little chance to the two Akatsuki members and are almost immediately killed, though the arrival of Kakashi, who had gotten worried, manages to keep Asuma and Kurenai from receiving any major damage, however. After a short skirmish with Kakashi, Itachi activates his Mangekyo Sharingan, which manages to exhaust Kakashi. After Kakashi reveals he has knowledge of Akatsuki, Itachi orders Kisame to kidnap Kakashi and kill Asuma and Kurenai, though Might Guy shows up within enough time to stop Kisame. After Guy reveals he ordered ANBU to send other teams to help defeat Itachi and Kisame, the two Akatsuki retreat, not wanting to start a war.

Itachi and Kisame then continue searching for Naruto, though trouble arrises when Jiraiya takes Naruto to search for Tsunade. While at first they worry about the possibility of having to battle Jiraiya, Itachi uses a Genjutsu on a pretty woman to seduce Jiraiya into leaving Naruto alone in a hotel. Taking the chance, Itachi and Kisame confront Naruto, though at the very same moment Sasuke Uchiha, Itachi's younger brother, immediately arrives to defend Naruto and seek revenge on his brother. Itachi manages to handle his brother with ease while Kisame keeps Naruto watched, though Jiraiya arrives in time to save the two boys, having not fallen for the hypnotized woman's charm.

Jiraiya immediately asks Itachi and Kisame if their real goal is kidnapping Naruto, to which they agree with. Though Jiraiya wishes to fight them himself and prevent others from getting hurt, he honors Sasuke's feelings and allows him to fight Itachi. Itachi, however, only proves Jiraiya wrong to let Sasuke fight by using his Mangekyo Sharingan on his younger brother to land the finishing blow. Jiraiya barely saves Sasuke in time using the Toad Mouth Trap, which transforms the entire hotel hallway into a toad's belly to trap Itachi and Kisame. Itachi uses the Amataratsu so he and Kisame can escape but the dojutsu leaves Itachi exhausted After leaving, Itachi and Kisame rest, exhausted from their battles, before returning to Akatsuki headquarters to announce their defeat.

[edit] Sasuke Retrieval arc

While not making a physical appearance in this arc, Itachi does appear in the form of a hologram during a meeting in Akatsuki's Land of the River headquarters. When asked by Sasori about Sasuke, Itachi remains silent, though Deidara interrupts by telling the two not to worry about Sasuke.

[edit] Part II

[edit] Rescue Gaara arc

Itachi makes his Part II introduction as a clone created by Pein using the body of Yura to distract Naruto, Kakashi, Sakura Haruno, and Chiyo, who are attempting to rescue Gaara. The clone fights the team with combinations of Genjutsu and Ninjutsu. Kakashi, however, cleverly uses a shadow clone to bind Itachi long enough for Naruto to destroy the clone.

[edit] Itachi vs. Sasuke arc

Following Kisame's capture of the Four-Tailed beast, Itachi and Kisame have a conversation about the Tailed Beasts. During the proceeding meeting to seal the Four-Tailed beast, Itachi and Kisame are educated with information that Sasuke started a team of Orochimaru's former agents to defeat Akatsuki. F

You can guess what happened yeah I got way too personal with Sasuke, I think it was his first time it was n't mine my first was horrible a story for a different time, Sasuke was making feel so guilty and I knew it would n't last it could n't last because Itachi and Sasuke were both Uchihas and I was begining to relise why Itachi had wipe out the rest of the Uchihas I needed to see him and Madara, Sasuke was already tiring of this maybe my attraction was fufilled now that I had him and now for the first time Sasuke was suspecting me why was that because I looked so guilty well in any case I knew the truth would crush Sasuke, He had never asked me about the day I had used that jutsu the uchiha curse reaper I had named it, but now he felt the need so I fled I headed straight for Itachi I found him in the springs unsually on his own without his pet fishy Kisame, You never told me why u killed them I could feel the rage stirring again I let it bubble Itachi smiled a deep smile "You feel how it knaws at your very soul tempting u to kill do n't u? again I felt that tightening grip on my heart he had this ability too, "I do n't want to kill anybody" "Oh but u lie, I feel it everyday cluching in the back of my mind the more u kill the less it controls u but if u do what they did they whole world is at risk only a few develop this skill and the one with latent power they corrupt completly either kill or be killed, I drew closer how did I not notice he was naked? "What are u trying to tell me that they were all going to be murderers? Itachi noded "You could see it as well as I Anbu was just an excuse to test us to see if we could develop it, there should of been only a handfull with the gift but insted there was dozens all hungry at the same time, imagine the whole world culled by Uchihas, Yes we should rule but only the strongest of us, Like u and I he stood up and again I was in a very sexual situation but I wondered if Itachi had planned this probably but I knew I wanted him and I could n't stop Is it okay to be myself? could I really let this happen but by the time I had that thought I was too into Itachi's kisses not far away Madara laughed he knew one way or another there would be a new uchiha heir, but I was n't stupid I had leared alot from oriohimaru and I had a version of birth control. to be continued......................

Kisame I do n't know much about him Kisame said but I knew he was not telling me something, about an hour after that I experienced one of Pein s powers telepathy but even after the conversation had ended Pein lingered in my head pulling out memory after memory until he stopped suddenly at my

Why do u hate me Pein?

memories of Sasuke, I could feel a scream in my head and Kisame was shaking me I had been screaming for 15 minutes, Kisame told me Pein had done the same to him, I hid my anger, I kept my contact with Pein to a minimum and I waited our routine grew we spent little time at the hide out, I found that if concentrated on Sasuke, Pein could not read me, I trained everyday mentally as well as physically, But this problem I had haunted me Pein tryed every trick to break me, he sent Oriochimaru to try and take my body NOBODY has everlayed a finger on me since that night when I killed everybody, I made that snake face his fear to die to be nothing and the screams made me laugh so hard but then the anger surfaced PEIN That asshole, so I wondered if I killed him I had to get past the telepathy u could not get past it

Itachi Uchiha (ã†ã¡ã¯ ã‚¤ã‚¿ãƒ, Uchiha Itachi^?) is a fictional character and major antagonist in the anime and manga series Naruto created by Masashi Kishimoto. He is a member of Akatsuki and the partner of Kisame Hoshigaki.

Itachi means "weasel", which are considered bad luck in Japan. His surname, Uchiha, is another way of pronouncing uchiwa, or a paper fan, which is actually the Uchiha clan symbol. An uchiwa can be used to fan flames, making the flame hotter â�” referring to the fact that the Uchiha is a clan of fire-jutsu users.

[hide]

[edit] Background

Itachi has been considered a genius since a young age, graduating at the top of his Academy class at age 7, attaining initial activation and mastery of the Sharingan by age 8, and becoming a Chunin at age 10. These accomplishments led the members of the Uchiha clan to think of Itachi as the clan's strongest member and, in turn, the clan's future. Itachi's father, Fugaku Uchiha, was the biggest proponent of this idea and focused much of his effort into bettering Itachi's career and status within Konohagakure. Because of his focused attention on Itachi, Fugaku paid little attention to his other son, Sasuke Uchiha. As a result of this neglect, Sasuke attempted to win his father's attention by somehow outdoing Itachi. Itachi would often offer to help Sasuke train to accomplish this goal, though he never lived up to his promises. To compensate for this, Itachi tried to force their father to spend time with Sasuke by refusing to carry out his other tasks unless his father complied. While Fugaku did so, much of the time he spent with Sasuke was still focused around Itachi, and Sasuke continued to desire his father's attention.

At the age of 13, Itachi became a squadron leader of the ANBU. After joining the ANBU, however, Itachi began to ignore his assignments and at the same time became a prime suspect in the death of Shisui Uchiha. While Shisui had been a good friend of Itachi and had appeared to commit suicide, the clan began to suspect the suicide was faked and that Itachi killed Shisui. As this lack of faith began to spread, Itachi began to distance himself from the clan, attacking its members when provoked and voicing his opinion that the clan itself was hopeless. As a result, the relationship between Fugaku and Itachi became estranged, and Fugaku started spending his time training Sasuke in an attempt to steer him away from following in Itachi's footsteps. Just as Sasuke began to receive the attention he so yearned for, he returned home one day to find that Itachi had killed every member of the clan. When questioned why he murdered their entire family, Itachi replied that it was "to test [his] ability", though he felt that Sasuke was not worth killing. Before leaving he encouraged Sasuke to live a life of hate and get strong enough to defeat him and avenge the clan. To help in this regard, Itachi told Sasuke of how to gain the Mangekyo Sharingan: one must simply kill his or her closest friend, just as he had done to Shisui.

At some point in time Itachi joined Akatsuki. While it stands to reason that he joined after massacring the Uchiha clan, the timeline that has been given throughout the series (coupled with his age) suggests that he joined the organization prior to killing his clan. As a result, the exact time at which Itachi joined is as of yet uncertain. After joining Akatsuki, Itachi was confronted by Orochimaru who attempted to steal his body for his own use. With his Sharingan, Itachi was able to negate Orochimaru's efforts and sever his left hand, forcing him to flee the organization. He later proves instrumental in recruiting Deidara to Akatsuki, forcing him to join by defeating him in battle.

[edit] Personality

Itachi is a relatively emotionless character, rarely becoming troubled by anything and finding the goings on in the world around him to be of little significance. When put into a battle situation he dislikes wasting time or making the fight more complicated than necessary, instead finishing it or accomplishing his business as soon as possible. During the battle itself he finds little interest in his opponent, instead regarding them as a mere inconvenience. When he returns to Konoha for the first time after killing his clan, however, he expresses his wishes to not fight the village's ninja, instead hoping to avoid a needless and drawn out battle.^[1] Itachi's only noticeable interest is in Akatsuki's goals, putting the organization's success and secrecy before everything else.^[2] As such, Itachi gets along with his partner, Kisame, much better than most other Akatsuki members do with their own partners. Kisame, in fact, has a deep loyalty to Itachi, immediately doing as he instructs and constantly looking out for his well-being. Itachi treats all of his fellow Akatsuki members to this same, more respectful and agreeable personality, though his courtesy is rarely returned by the other members.

[edit] Abilities

In the few battles he has been seen in, Itachi has done little in terms of fighting, primarily remaining stationary and only attacking in defense. This tactic is made particularly easy with his Sharingan, which allows him to properly assess an opponent's actions and respond accordingly. When faced with a genjutsu, Itachi can use his Sharingan to perform "Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change" (é”å¹»ãƒ»é¡å¤©åœ°è»¢, Magen: KyÅ Tenchi-ten^?) and turn the genjutsu against its user.^[3] His prowess with genjutsu is one of his few recurring abilities, and he can catch someone in an illusion by merely pointing at them.

Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan.

Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan enables him to use some of the Uchiha clan's most powerful techniques. With Tsukuyomi, he can trap an opponent in an illusionary world where he can seem to torture them for days on end in only a matter of seconds.^[4] Amaterasu allows him to create a black flame that is capable of burning through the strongest of materials. Despite his mastery of the Mangekyo Sharingan, Itachi seems to be falling prey to its side effects. In addition to being left fatigued after each usage^[5], it has been suggested that his eyesight is getting increasingly worse as well, though this has never been addressed in full.

In terms of standard ninjutsu, Itachi can create shadow clones to carry out the close-combat that he seems to avoid. These clones can also be commanded to explode with "Clone Great Explosion" (åˆ†èº«å¤§çˆ†ç ´, Bunshin Daibakuha^?), which is easily capable of killing those caught in the blast.^[6] As a member of the Uchiha clan he can perform "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique" to catch opponents in a blast of fire, and in the anime can breathe multiple fireballs with Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique (ç«éãƒ»é³³ä»™ç«ã®è¡“, Katon: HÅsenka no Jutsu^?). With "Water Release: Water Fang Bullet" (æ°´éãƒ»æ°´ç‰™å¼¾, Suiton: Suigadan^?) he can also catch unwary targets in a circle of crushing water.^[7] Itachi is also noted to be very fast with his techniques and movements, as Kakashi Hatake experienced during their first confrontation in Part I.^[8]

[edit] Plot overview

In Akatsuki's goal of acquiring all of the tailed beasts, Itachi is assigned to capture the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox sealed within Naruto Uzumaki. After going to Konoha with Kisame in search of Naruto, Itachi is forced into battle with the village's elite ninja, whose numbers grow as the fight continues. Uninterested in starting a war, Itachi orders Kisame to retreat.^[9] When they later find Naruto and try to kidnap him, Sasuke shows up in an attempt to kill Itachi. Uninterested in their brotherly quarrel, Itachi quickly defeats him by breaking his wrist, and is disappointed to see that Sasuke still isn't strong enough to defeat him. After Jiraiya arrives, Itachi and Kisame are driven off. After this event Itachi makes very few appearances, only being seen during Akatsuki's meetings and for short periods of time before and afterwards. After news of Orochimaru's defeat by Sasuke reaches his ears, Itachi is put on alert by Pein, the Akatsuki leader, in case Sasuke uses this opportunity to try and kill him. Once word of Orochimaru's defeat reaches Konoha, Naruto sets out to find Sasuke and Itachi as well. As either him or one of his shadow clones follows Sasuke's scent he runs into Itachi, wandering through a forest alone.

Snake Sasukes team from Wkipedia

"Snake"

After breaking his ties with Orochimaru, Sasuke gathers a four-man group consisting of himself and three of Orochimaru's former subordinates under the name "Snake" (è›‡, Hebi^?). All of them have a certain ability that Sasuke requires to defeat Itachi Uchiha.

Main article: Sasuke Uchiha

Though originally a member of Konoha, Sasuke Uchiha has since joined Orochimaru in his quest to become more powerful in order to kill his older brother, Itachi. He has recently severed his ties with the Sound village after killing Orochimaru.

[edit] Jugo

Jugo

Unique Traits: Body produces enzymes that transform him into a monstrous creature, Ability to talk to animals

Jugo (é‡å¾, JÅ«go^?) is the largest member of "Snake". Jugo was being held at Orochimaru's North Base, which is also where most of Orochimaru's secret research was conducted. Suigetsu can't stand Jugo and comments that one of the reasons he had to retrieve Zabuza Momochi's sword was because of him. Karin notes that Jugo is mentally unstable, a view confirmed by images of Jugo muttering to himself over who he will kill next, which he determines by gender.

Jugo is the means behind Orochimaru's development of the cursed seals. Some time in the past, Jugo purposely sought out Orochimaru to cure him of his "impulses". Jugo has trouble controlling his rage, which unexpectedly causes him to transform into a berserk demon (much like a cursed seal does to its user). Upon examination, Orochimaru was able to isolate enzymes in Jugo's blood as the cause of this change. By extracting these enzymes, Orochimaru was able to use them to produce similar, but more controlled, effects in other people.

While Jugo initially appears quite bloodthirsty, Karin notes that this is only common behavior for the enraged; Jugo himself doesn't want to kill anyone. Jugo's fits of rage are random and thus the reason why he willingly remains confined. The only reason he agrees to go with Sasuke is because he views Sasuke as the only person capable of preventing him from killing people while enraged. Before Sasuke, it was Kimimaro who kept Jugo in check and as Kimimaro was the only person Jugo came into any contact with, the two grew close. After hearing that Kimimaro sacrificed his life to deliver Sasuke to Orochimaru, Jugo believes that Kimimaro's spirit continues to live on in Sasuke.

Jugo has a bracket-shaped symbol on his left palm. Whether or not this is also present on his right palm or if it has any significance has yet to be seen. His brief fight with Sasuke and Suigetsu revealed that Jugo can control his transformation, unlike the static effects of a standard cursed seal. When battling Sasuke he changes his left arm into a piston-like ram to increase his punching power and then alters it into a massive blade from his forearm to fight Suigetsu. He is also capable of doing only a partial transformation, invoking a level two form over one portion of his body without completely changing. Finally, Jugo is able to understand animals, using them as spies and scouts.

While discussing Sasuke's team with the other members of Akatsuki, Pein refers to Jugo as Jugo of the Scales (å¤©ç§¤ã®é‡å¾, Tenbin no JÅ«go^?, "scale" referring to something that determines balance). Whether this is a title or a location is unclear.

[edit] Karin

Karin

Unique Traits: Able to locate and track others by sensing their chakra.

Karin (é¦™ç‡, Karin^?) is a former subordinate of Orochimaru who assisted him in his experimentations and was left in charge of one of his bases while he was away; and was also the only one loyal to Orochimaru to remain even though his current status is questionable. She has red eyes, matching hair color and an unusual hairstyle; her hair is short and unkempt on one side, and long and combed on the other. Karin will at times appear tough and in control, and other times will appear flirtatious. Karin's name means 'intense sulfur' and is also a homonym for the fruit 'quince'.

Sasuke Uchiha recruits her as a member of Snake. While Sasuke admits she may be troublesome, he also notes that her special abilities make her useful. She also seems to have a liking for Sasuke, implying to Sasuke that a team consisting of the two of them would be much better than one with Suigetsu or Jugo. She has an unhealthy and somewhat disturbing interest in Sasuke, as she goes so far as to keep one of his battered, sweat-drenched shirts for herself and plans to "ravage" him after everyone falls asleep. Suigetsu notes that something once happened between her and Sasuke though what this means remains unclear, since Karin punches Suigetsu before he can finish his sentence.

Karin's special ability allows her to track specific individuals through chakra, seen when she is able to discern that Jugo is not among a crowd of prisoners through the standard concentration pose for molding chakra. It also allows her to pick up chakra from long distances and notice changes in an individual's chakra. Kakashi Hatake surmises that Karin is a particularly skilled chakra-sensing ninja, as she is not only able to tell that his group is approaching, but can sense how many of them are present and that one is a dog.

[edit] Suigetsu Hozuki

Suigetsu

Unique traits: Able to reduce himself to a liquid form, can change the size of his limbs

Suigetsu Hozuki (é¬¼ç¯æ°´æœˆ, HÅzuki Suigetsu^?) is a former experimental subject of Orochimaru and the first member to be recruited into Snake. He is freed by Sasuke shortly after he defeats Orochimaru. Suigetsu's teeth are shark-like, much like Zabuza Momochi's and Kisame Hoshigaki's. His attire is similiar to that of his former master, Zabuza, but it is colored differently. Suigetsu's name means "water moon", a reference to something that can be seen but not grasped, as the moon reflected in water is. This could be a reference to the color of his hair.

Suigetsu is able to reduce himself to liquid form and to return to bodily form at will. This ability also allows him to change his body shape, giving him the ability to increase the size of his limbs, proportionally increasing his strength, if necessary. It also makes striking him somewhat difficult; since he is made of liquid, any sufficiently powerful strike will go right through his watery form. He is arguably quite powerful or at least very confident in his abilities, since he has threatened Sasuke on more than one occasion. Kisame Hoshigaki even commented on Suigetsu being a prodigy at the art of murder and the next Zabuza Momochi as he commented that Suigetsu had a habit of chopping off his victim's limbs before beheading them. Suigetsu is also the first ninja seen carrying water bottles on his outfit. Given his somewhat frequent desire to consume water, Suigetsu may require regular hydration to sustain his watery form.

Suigetsu has Sasuke take him to Zabuza's grave in the Land of Waves after being released, wanting to take possession of the latter's zanbatÅ. Having trained with the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, which Zabuza once belonged to, Suigetsu can wield the weapon with relative ease, but traveling longer distances with the sword strapped onto his back tires him out rather quickly. In his allegiance with Sasuke, Suigetsu hopes to acquire the sword of Kisame as well, which Karin assumes to mean that he wants to collect all of the swords of the Seven Swordsmen.

He seems to have some enmity for Jugo and Karin for unspecified reasons, although he is notably reluctant to recruit someone as dangerous as Jugo. Similarly, he does not think very highly of Sasuke himself, and suggests that others wanted to kill Orochimaru, yet did not have as good of a chance as he did. During the trip meant for recruiting Karin, Sasuke asks him to free all the prisoners previously kept under Karin's guard. As a condition of their release, he has them tell those they meet that Sasuke has killed Orochimaru and intends to bring peace to the world. As Sasuke is never seen mentioning this to Suigetsu, it remains unclear if this is Sasuke's actual goal or merely manipulation on Suigetsu's part. Suigetsu apparently likes animals, as he is seen playing with several talking cats at one point and also lectured Sasuke on treating animals better after Sasuke used Manda to escape an explosion, causing Manda's death.

Sasuke Uchiha info from Wikipedia

Sasuke Uchiha (ã†ã¡ã¯ã‚µã‚¹ã‚±, Uchiha Sasuke^?) is a fictional character in the anime and manga series Naruto created by Masashi Kishimoto. He is a former member of Kakashi Hatake's Team 7, which, at the time of his membership, consisted of himself, Naruto Uzumaki, and Sakura Haruno making him an original member of the Rookie Nine.

Sasuke's given name comes from the legendary ninja Sarutobi Sasuke. His surname, Uchiha, is another way of pronouncing "uchiwa", or a paper fan, which is actually the Uchiha clan symbol. Uchiwa can be used to fan flames, making the flame hotter â�” referring to the fact that the Uchiha is a clan of fire-jutsu users.

In Shonen Jump's June 2006 edition, Masashi Kishimoto (in Kakashi's voice) remarks that while Sasuke is a genius, he is a little dull to teach because he learns techniques easily compared to the less predictable Naruto. Kishimoto has also mentioned that Sasuke is the hardest character for him to draw.

In Shonen Jump's character popularity polls, Sasuke usually ranked the 3rd or 4th spot for the majority of the series. More recently, he has been ranked at 1st.

Background

The early years of Sasuke's childhood were spent living in the shadow of his older brother, Itachi Uchiha, who had proven time and again that he was an extremely talented ninja. Because of Itachi's successes, most of the members of the Uchiha clan looked to Itachi as the clan's future, the biggest proponent of this idea being Sasuke's father, Fugaku Uchiha. Due to this focusing on Itachi, Sasuke did what he could to prove himself to his family, though no amount of training could help him in surpassing the milestones set in place by his brother. Itachi, aware of Sasuke's struggle for recognition, tried to shift some of their father's attention to Sasuke, even offering to train Sasuke in various fields of ninja abilities. Although Itachi succeeded in getting Fugaku to spend more time with Sasuke, much of that time was still dedicated to Itachi, and all the while Itachi never lived up to his promises of training Sasuke.

As time went by, Itachi's standing in the clan began to falter as his trustworthiness was constantly called into question. At this time, Itachi also began to create a more competitive relationship with Sasuke, challenging Sasuke to surpass him. Because of Itachi's changing personality, Fugaku began to take a more active interest in Sasuke's development, teaching him the Great Fireball Technique in less time than Itachi had taken to learn it, which also gave Sasuke proper membership into the clan. Most prominently, Fugaku encouraged Sasuke to not follow in Itachi's footsteps, the former prodigy of the clan having lost his father's confidence.

Soon after receiving the attention from his father that he had so yearned for, Sasuke returned home late one evening to find all the members of his clan dead. After finding Itachi standing over the bodies of their parents, indicating he was the one responsible for the clans' murders, Itachi informed Sasuke that he wasn't worth killing. As he left, Itachi repeated his encouragement to Sasuke to get strong enough to surpass him, and disappeared into the night. From that day forth, Sasuke lived as an orphan, longing for the parents that had been taken from him and allowing his brother's words to fester. Soon after the clan's annihilation, Sasuke's only goal in life became to gain power through any means necessary in order to kill Itachi and avenge the clan.

Personality

At the start of the series, Sasuke's desire to get stronger is the dominating factor in his interactions with others and takes precedence over all else. As such he is initially unconcerned with the concepts of socializing, be it with his teammates or the many girls in his age group vying for his affection. Likewise, Sasuke is uninterested in working with Naruto or Sakura for the good of the mission, believing himself to be much more talented and that working with them will only make him weaker. Soon after the three set out on missions together, however, Sasuke begins to discover that these perceptions are inaccurate; Sakura is a valuable source of information, and Naruto is an effective ally and incentive to get stronger. As a result of these revelations, Sasuke begins to value his teammates more than he did during their first meeting. While he tries to deny this, his willingness to risk his life to help them even if it could mean never getting a chance to kill Itachi slowly begins to manifest, although this is partly influenced by Sasuke's belief that if he cannot fight in this battle, he will never be strong enough to face Itachi.

During the second phase of the Chunin Exams, Orochimaru notices this change in Sasuke's ideals, witnessing first hand Sasuke's valuing of his teammates' safety over his own. Having need for Sasuke's craving for revenge, Orochimaru brands Sasuke with the Cursed Seal of Heaven to give him a taste of the power he can have and steer him back towards the more "favorable" path of vengeance. Although Kakashi does what he can to weaken the cursed seal, discourage its usage, and give Sasuke other means of getting stronger, Sasuke comes to realize the potential the seal allows him. To test his newfound power, Sasuke begins to seek out strong opponents that he can fight, believing each victory he obtains to be an indicator of his growth. As time goes by, however, Sasuke becomes dissatisfied with the progress he is making in getting stronger, largely a result of his quick defeat by Itachi during their brief encounter. All the while, Naruto, someone he finds to be of lesser skill, continues to surpass him in ability, creating a sense of envy within Sasuke.

Sasuke in Part II

Ultimately, Sasuke decides to abandon Konoha in order to seek out Orochimaru and gain power. Naruto, sent to stop Sasuke from escaping the country, eventually catches up with him and pleads for him to return. Sasuke, believing Naruto to be his closest friend, decides instead to use the last bit of advice Itachi ever gave him: in order to gain the Mangekyo Sharingan, the highest power of the Uchiha clan, one's best friend must be killed. No longer valuing his teammates over his own self-betterment, Sasuke tries to kill Naruto and meets him in battle. Naruto, unwilling to let Sasuke go, fights with equal earnest, now willing to break Sasuke's body to bring him home. As the battle concludes, Sasuke attacks Naruto with his Chidori first while Naruto cannot make full contact with his Rasengan and merely scratches Sasuke's headband (in reference to Sasuke's claim that he couldn't scratch his forehead). As Naruto lies unconscious, Sasuke considers killing him, though upon realizing that that is what Itachi would want, decides to spare Naruto to find power in his own way. He goes to Orochimaru, ready to do whatever is necessary to gain the power he desires.

In Part II, Sasuke sees little change from his personality and mindset at the end of Part I, still craving power above all else. His lust for strength is such that, during his reunion with Naruto and Sakura, he claims to be willing to give his body to Orochimaru if it means killing Itachi. Sasuke has at least changed to a point that he no longer cares for his former teammates' well-beings, being more than willing to kill them since neither is of any use to him. His relationship with Orochimaru shows a similar lack of loyalty, as during their time together he applies no honorifics to Orochimaru's name, is somewhat rude to him, and does not express his allegiance with Otogakure by wearing a Sound headband. Of the loyalties Sasuke has, the only one he displays is that of the Uchiha clan, the symbol of which he wears on his back collar. Despite this lack of allegiances to those close to him, Sasuke seems to be unable to bring himself to needlessly harm those he has never met before, and makes it a point to prevent their deaths when possible.

Abilities

While not on the same level as Itachi in terms of talent, Sasuke is established as a natural genius at the series' start, excelling at all that he does and finding little difficulty in more challenging tasks. This is most immediately evident through his proficiency with the Uchiha clan's techniques such as the Manipulating Windmill Triple Blades (æ“é¢¨è»Šä¸‰ãƒŽå¤§åˆ�, SÅfÅ«shasan no Tachi^?, English TV "Sharingan Windmill Triple Attack"), which allows him to control three shuriken tied with cords at once to bind an opponent. His ability with weapons is seen again in the form of Shadow Shuriken Technique (å½±æ‰‹è£å‰£ã®è¡“, Kage Shuriken no Jutsu^?), which he can utilize to hide shuriken in the shadows of other shuriken to add an element of surprise to his attacks. To couple his apparent talent with shuriken and the Uchiha clan's ability to use fire-based attacks, Sasuke can use Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique (ç«éãƒ»é³³ä»™ç«ã®è¡“, Katon: HÅsenka no Jutsu^?) to shoot balls of fire in quick succession with shuriken hidden inside as added effect.

Of the abilities the Uchiha bloodline has allowed him, Sasuke has found most frequent use in the Sharingan, which first develops during Team 7's mission in the Land of Waves and eventually reaches completion during his battle with Naruto at the end of Part I. While his ability with the Sharingan is fairly ordinary during the first half of the series, Sasuke is able to develop a number of more unique uses for it in Part II. During his encounter with Naruto, Sasuke is able to use his Sharingan to enter Naruto's subconscious where he proceeds to suppress the demon fox residing within Naruto. In this instance, the demon fox compares Sasuke's eyes and chakra to that of Madara Uchiha, which it claims is even more sinister than its own. When Orochimaru later tries to take over his body, Sasuke is able to use his Sharingan to fight the process and turn it against Orochimaru.

Sasuke is able to put the Sharingan to good use in Part I after his brief encounter with Rock Lee. Although their fight is ended soon after its start and Sasuke is unable to see much of Lee's arsenal, what he is able to copy with his Sharingan is utilized for the duration of the Chunin Exams. His newfound taijutsu abilities are first seen in the form of Peregrine Falcon Drop (ãƒãƒ¤ãƒ–ã‚µè½ã¨ã—, Hayabusa Otoshi^?), which consists of wrapping himself around an airborne opponent to ensure they are unable to save themselves upon impact with the ground. A derivative of this jutsu is seen again as the Lion Combo (ç…åé�£å¼¾, Shishi Rendan^?, English TV "Lion's Barrage"), and after kicking an opponent into the air Sasuke delivers a series of blows to them, eventually culminating in a debilitating kick to the chest.

Sasuke in cursed seal level 2 form

Orochimaru's influence has also added a number of abilities to Sasuke's arsenal, as first seen with his cursed seal. After recovering from the initial application of the seal, Sasuke finds himself endowed with increased speed and strength, as well as less merciful tendencies when the seal is active. In addition, when his chakra reserves are low, Sasuke can use the seal to momentarily give him a boost of chakra. Wanting more of this power, Sasuke abandons Konoha to seek out Orochimaru and forcefully advances his cursed seal to level 2. While in the level 2 form, Sasuke is able to compete with a demon fox-fueled Naruto, and is even given a brief ability to fly when using the wings that grow from his back. In Part II, Sasuke is even able to advance only parts of his body to their second level state, and the curse seal itself becomes less tiring for him to use. In addition to the cursed seal, he gains the snake summoning contract, which is located on his left arm. With it, Sasuke can summon giant snakes to use as shields or call forth smaller snakes from his sleeves to immobilize targets. After absorbing Orochimaru, Sasuke is able to heal at a faster rate, an attribute allowed to him by one of the modifications made to Orochimaru's body.

To encourage Sasuke not to use the cursed seal, Kakashi teaches him how to use the Chidori, made more effective when combined with his Sharingan and the speed he has copied from Rock Lee. With this combination Sasuke can punch through the strongest obstacles with relative ease, as well as severely damage any opponent. In Part I Sasuke is limited to using the attack only twice a day, with a third usage after the initial activation of his cursed seal. Once drawing upon more of the cursed seal's power however, Sasuke is able to use the ability much more frequently, and while in his level 2 form is even capable of using the more powerful Flapping Chidori (ç¾½æ’ƒãåƒé³¥, Habataku Chidori^?, lit. Flapping One Thousand Birds). Over the timeskip, Sasuke puts great deals of development into the Chidori's ability to manipulate lightning-based chakra. When first seen in Part II he is able to use Chidori Current (åƒé³¥æµã—, Chidori Nagashi^?, lit. One Thousand Birds Current) to emit electricity from all over his body as a shield that stuns those it comes into contact with. If need be, Sasuke can channel this force into his new chokuto, increasing the damage the blade does to opponents. He can even concentrate this chakra into highly condensed needle-like forms, which he can throw in volleys with pinpoint accuracy. Sasuke has also taken to using form manipulation on the Chidori itself to create an extendable blade form, although he is only able to extend it to 5 meters in length.

Plot overview

Sasuke and his quest to kill Itachi are recurring themes in the overall plot, and as such much of the story is built upon and shaped by his actions that will make this task easier. After first meeting Orochimaru, Sasuke attempts to continue to get stronger while in Konoha, though he believes that he is slow in accomplishing this task in comparison to his peers. When Itachi arrives in Konoha to kidnap Naruto, Sasuke tries to use what he has learned to kill his brother, though Itachi is able to defeat him with little effort and taunts his inability to get stronger. This, coupled with Naruto's rapid increase in strength (further enhanced by his learning the Rasengan, a jutsu stronger than the Chidori), convinces Sasuke to abandon Konoha and seek out Orochimaru as a way to get stronger. While Naruto and four other Konoha Genin mobilize to stop Sasuke, he is still able to escape after narrowly defeating Naruto. Because of this, many of the people he leaves behind in Konoha resolve to bring him back, creating a number of future attempts to accomplish this task.

In Part II, one such effort proves successful in at least finding Sasuke, though Sasuke's rapid increase in strength allows him to quickly defeat Naruto, Sakura, and the newer members of Team 7. While he attempts to kill his former comrades, Sasuke is persuaded to spare them in case they can defeat more members of Akatsuki, an organization which Itachi belongs to, and therefore make him easier to kill. Soon afterwards Sasuke turns against Orochimaru, feeling that he can learn nothing else from him and that Orochimaru is unworthy of having his body. Although Orochimaru attempts to take his body by force, Sasuke is able to turn the process against him, later reporting to have simply retained control of his body. With Orochimaru gone, Sasuke recruits Suigetsu Hozuki, Karin, and Jugo, former subordinates and experimental subjects of Orochimaru, to help him in finding and ultimately killing Itachi. After naming their group "Snake", the group splits up to find Itachi. Soon afterwards, Sasuke is forced into battle with Akatsuki member Deidara. After he defeats him Sasuke tries to interrogate Deidara about Itachi's whereabouts. Rather than do so, however, Deidara blows himself up, though Sasuke is able to escape the blast and regroup with his team.

Other media

Sasuke only appears in the first Naruto movie, throughout which he encounters Fubuki Kakuyoku and eventually defeats her with his Lion Combo. He also uses his Chidori to damage Doto Kazahana's armor, though is knocked out in the process.

Sasuke is a common playable character in Naruto video games, almost as often as Naruto himself, and appears as a boss in games that feature the events of the Sasuke Retrieval Arc. In some games, it is possible to unlock and play as a version of him with the cursed seal active.

The Dark History of Uchiha: The Bloodline of Tengu

.. / icon and title -->.. message -->

Hyuuga clan is one of the oldest clans in Konoha. They have been there ever since the establishment of the hidden village. Many years ago there was a girl from Hyuuga clan who fell in love with an outsider. She decided to marry herself to the young man despite the strong protests from her own clan. But this man was no ordinary human. In fact, this man was not a human at all. His name was Sojobo. He was the King of Tengu.

There are two types of tengus, Karasu tengu (a crow-like creature with beak and wings) and Konoha tengu (also known as Yamabushi tengu). Sojobo was a Konoha tengu. He had long nose and white hair with a pair of black wings on his back. As the King of Tengu, Sojobo possessed some very mystical powers. He carried a fan made of Fatsia leaf that could create a storm (therefore people sometimes call this type of leaf as Tengu no Uchiwa or Tengu's fan). He could teleport himself or any other things from one place to another. He could also communicate with people telepathically or even invade their minds and drive them to madness. Besides, Sojobo was also known for his shapeshifting ability. He sometimes transformed himself into human to interact with peopleAnyway, this girl from Hyuuga was in love with Sojobo taking the human form without knowing his true identity. She married him shortly after they met each other. A year or two later, she was pregnant and gave birth to their first son. Sojobo named this son Uchiha, Uchiha Madara, after Uchiwa which means fan. And of course as we know, fan also later became the symbol of this new clan.

Everything was good. Uchiha Madara soon grew up to become a very powerful shinobi. He not only inherited the Kekkei Genkai from his mother but with the Tengu blood inside him the Byakugan had evolved into an even more dreadful formâ�”the Sharingan! This new bloodline had 2 levels: Normal Sharingan and Mangekyou Sharingan. Like his tengu father, Madara possessed some incredible magical powers. He was able to use telepathy to invade people's minds, or even teleport himself across a short distance. When he turned on the Mangekyou Sharingan (he had the normal Sharingan on 24/7 just like his Hyuuga kin), the eyes would further intensify his powers and bring him even closer to a tengu form. He had developed 3 jutsus under this state, namely Tsukiyomi (to control people's minds and drive them insane), Amaterasu (to teleport objects into another dimension)* and Susanoo (to create a storm like that created by a Tengu's fan).

*You might be confused about this: when was it stated that Kakashi's MS jutsu is Amaterasu? Well it has never been stated, it's just another of my bold speculations. To make long story short,Because of his bravery and almost unparalleled powers, Madara soon became a hero in his people's eyes despite his young age. He became very close friends with Shodaime and together they took up the responsibility to protect the Konoha village they established. Madara founded the first police force in the Konoha and swore to protect his people with his life.

But good things do not last long. As Madara was about to reach his adulthood, Sojobo began to reveal his true intention. Sojobo didn't marry the girl from Hyuuga out of love. He was only looking for a perfect body, a container (probably to achieve greater powers), and he figured the best way was to create one with his own blood. He was planning on taking over Madara's body once he reached his adulthood. It didn't take Uchiha Madara long to find out this appalling truth. He felt a mixture of shock and anger. He felt he was being used but he wasn't going to give in such easily, at least not without a fight. But Madara knew only too well that no matter how strong he was he stood no chance against the King of Tengu. Out of desperation he sought for the legendary Bijuuâ�”Kyuubi (the God of Fire).

Kyuubi was very impressed by Madara's abilities. A secret pact was made and Kyuubi agreed to lend his power and chakra to Uchiha Madara. Soon Madara mastered the katon and he could even cast a dark fire that would burn for 7 days and 7 nights after performing the Amaterasu. But even with these newly gained powers and a huge supply of chakra from the Kyuubi, Uchiha Madara was only able to beat his demon father by a hair's breadth. He couldn't finish him once and for all but only managed to seal him up. However, the seal he used was a very special one. To break the seal it requires the Kyuubi's chakra and also not one but 3 Uchiha members who can wield the Mangekyou Sharingan. Each MS user has to cast a different MS jutsu at the same time and when the 3 jutsus--Tsukiyomi, Amaterasu and Susanoo--combine, the great evil will be unleashed. It's a tall order and Madara thought it would be enough to seal up the demon for eternity. But what Madara didn't anticipate was that this seal itself would bring a bloody massacre upon his own clan many decades laterâ�¦

Here I will derail a bit and talk about the relationship between Shodaime and Madara. When Shodai found out about the secret pact between Madara and Kyuubi he was enraged. He thought it was hunger for greater power that led his best friend to the Kyuubi. Madara didn't explain to him either because he didn't want anyone to know he was a half-demon. Conflicts began to appear between the two who were once close to each other. The intense hostility eventually resulted in a great battle at the Valley of the End. (You might think that I depicted Madara as too strong a character and therefore feel skeptical about Shodai being able to rival both MS and Kyuubi's power at the same time. Well you better not forget that Shodai had the ability to suppress Kyuubi's chakra and his darkness jutsu and suiton might be very good counter-moves to Madara's Sharingan and katon respectively as well.) Many years had come into past since Sojobo was sealed. The tengu's blood in Uchiha clan was now no longer as pure as it once was. It was gradually being "diluted" by constant marriages with non-Uchihas over the generations. Now even the Normal Sharingan was possessed by only the elite few among Uchihas, let alone the Mangekyou Sharingan. But the dark history of the clan was anything but forgotten. A tengu shrine was built underneath the Nakano temple by some of the early Uchihas to keep all the secrets of the clan inside (including killing your loved one to gain MS which was discovered by some later Uchiha). Once an Uchiha member was thought to be reliable enough he would be informed about the secret meeting place and it would then become his life-long obligation to keep these secrets from outsiders. The Uchihas considered this dark history as an unspeakable shame and swore to protect the glory and dignity of their clan with their lives no matter what happened.

20 years ago, a new member was born into an Uchiha family. He soon proved himself to be a prodigy, even by the high standards of the Uchiha. He graduated at the top of his class at age 7, mastered the Sharingan at 8, became a Chunin at 10 and an ANBU squad leader at 13. His name was Uchiha Itachi. As Itachi was selected to become an ANBU his father Fugaku felt that it was the right time to tell him everything. Itachi learned about the Mangekyou Sharingan and the origin of his clan from his father. Deep inside his mind, an evil shadow began to take shapeâ�¦

One night, when all men of Uchiha were supposed to gather at the secret meeting place two of them were absent. Itachi lured his best friend Uchiha Shisui to the Nakano river and started his horrendous plan. He assaulted and killed Uchiha Shisui on that night and obtained the accursed eye powersâ�”Mangekyou Sharingan from the death of his friend. The next day when people found Uchiha Shisui's body they also found a suicide note grabbed in his hand. But of course this note wasn't really written by Shisui. Itachi forged his handwriting with the Sharingan to make it look like a suicide. What was written on the note is important because it reflects Itachi's feeling at that time.

..> ..>

You hold onto your organization, your clan, your nameâ�¦These things limit us and our capacitiesâ�¦These things deserve to be shunnedâ�¦It's foolish to fear what we have yet to see and know!!

I've lost all hope for this pathetic clan.

Always living with fearâ�”fear that people may find out the secrets of their clan, fear that people may know Uchihas are actually descendants of demonâ�”they all swore to take the secrets with them to the graveyard. This was the miserable life of every Uchiha member. Itachi was tired of all these. He could see no future for his clan. He didn't understand why his people felt ashamed of their own past. He didn't understand why his people didn't see their superiority to the normal human beings. He didn't understand why his people decided to seal up such a great power and not to use it. Itachi had lost all his hope for the Uchiha clan because of the pathetic "path" they had chosen.

From the moment Itachi heard about the origin of his clan he felt a weird sense of pleasure and superiority. He felt he was somehow more special than the others. Then his sick and twisted mind had gone even further. He wanted to set the tengu free. He was willing to sacrifice his body in exchange for probably the strongest power the world had ever seen. He was ready to offer his body to the Tengu King.

Soon Itachi had put his thoughts into action. When he learned about the Akatsuki's plan to capture the Bijuus he decided to join them. He needed their help to get the Kyuubi's chakra. But that's not all. Itachi still had to find another 2 MS users. After awhile, he came across a second MS user who agreed to help him carry out his plan. Now all he needed was the third and last MS user.

Itachi knew his clan members would never kill their loved ones to get MS. He despised them. They were a bunch of cowards, useless â�¦oh wait, Itachi suddenly came up with an ideaâ�”he could still use them to achieve his purpose. He could use them to make his little brother the third MS userâ�¦

On a full-moon night, the ancient blood inside Itachi finally awakened and he had completely lost his mind. He killed his entire clan including his parents. Then he waited for his little brother Sasuke to come home. He wanted him to know he was the one who did it. He used Tsukiyomi on his brother to make sure such a traumatic picture would stay with him for the rest of his life. He wanted Sasuke to hate him. He wanted Sasuke to hate him enough to kill his own friend and activate the Mangekyou Sharingan. He told him about the secret meeting place so that he would find out everything. He wanted Sasuke to take the path he had paved for himâ�”the path of an avenger...

Uchiha clan

Known members: Sasuke Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, Obito Uchiha, Fugaku Uchiha, Mikoto Uchiha, Shisui Uchiha, Madara Uchiha

Once considered to be one of the most powerful clans in Konohagakure, the Uchiha clan (?????, Uchiha Ichizoku^?, "Uchiha family") is now virtually gone, with only three known living members remaining. Uchiha is another way of pronouncing "uchiwa", a paper fan, which is incidentally the Uchiha clan symbol. Uchiwa can be used to fan flames, making the flame hotter â�” referring to the fact that the Uchiha is a clan of fire-jutsu users.

The Uchiha specialize in fire jutsu like Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique and Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique. Clan members are properly recognized by the rest of the clan when they become proficient in these fire jutsu. Uchiha clan members also possess the Sharingan, a kekkei genkai which gives them the ability to copy their opponent's jutsu, among other benefits.

It is said that one of the ancestors of the Uchiha clan founded the Konoha Military Police, and the organization itself largely consisted of members of the Uchiha clan until recently. Currently, there are only three known surviving members of the clan: Sasuke Uchiha and his brother Itachi Uchiha, and the mysterious Madara Uchiha (also known as Akatsuki member Tobi). After obtaining the Mangekyo Sharingan by killing his best friend Shisui Uchiha, Itachi proceeded to slaughter the rest of the clan. He left Sasuke alive for reasons that have not been revealed yet. Itachi has told Sasuke that the Uchiha clan's Sharingan has some special and seemingly dark ultimate purpose, but what that is has yet to be revealed

Tobi

Membership status: Active
Ring: ? ("jewel", "ball"; "jade"; also the king in shogi)
Ring position: Left thumb
Partner: Formerly Deidara
First appearance: Chapter 280
Defining characteristics: Orange mask with single eye-hole covered in a swirl pattern concentrated towards the right eye, Sharingan

Tobi (??, Tobi^?), formerly Zetsu's subordinate, became a full Akatsuki member after Sasori's death. He now wears the same ring as Sasori, having recovered it after Sasori's death, and took his place as Deidara's partner. After Deidara's death, Tobi is revealed to be the one giving Pein orders, and he refers to himself as Madara Uchiha.^[9] Unlike the majority of ninja thus far, Tobi has not been shown wearing a visible forehead protector; however, his Uchiha name would suggest that his home village is Konoha. He wears an odd mask that covers his entire face save for his right eye, which like other Uchiha has the Sharingan. Furthermore, Tobi has several bolts or pins present on the arms of his uniform, now obscured by his Akatsuki cloak.

Tobi's area of expertise remains unclear, as he has never been shown fighting or utilizing jutsu. He and Deidara are able to defeat the three-tailed beast, but Tobi is never shown doing anything but running from it. After the battle, which goes largely unwitnessed, Tobi claims to have knocked it out with a single attack. Deidara disagrees with the assessment, claiming that it was his "artistic contribution" (exploding clay) that allowed them to win. During his fight with Sasuke, Tobi shows the ability to recover from what are presumably debilitating or fatal blows. After being slashed across the midsection by Sasuke's sword, Tobi collapses, only to stand up again a few seconds later and complain about the speed of the attack. He is also able to escape the final explosion created by Deidara.

Tobi has a very formal and correct manner of speech. While his physical appearance remains a mystery, Zetsu has implied that he is relatively young when one side of him referred to Tobi as a "good boy." He respects Deidara, referring to him as Deidara-senpai. Tobi's personality is rather odd in comparison with other Akatsuki members; while most of the members are dedicated and serious, Tobi is more carefree and goofy. His personality does not please Deidara, who believes that all Akatsuki members should be serious and calm. Tobi unintentionally irritates Deidara frequently, which usually results in Deidara attacking Tobi in a comedic fashion. Kisame, on the other hand, somewhat appreciates Tobi's ability to brighten up a gloomy organization such as theirs.^[10] Tobi's personality and speech are completely different when speaking as Madara, however, as he speaks much less formally and is more serious and arrogant.

Well there u have it the real leader of the akatsuki? Tobi/madara Uchiha, So what does that have to do with Itachi we will have to wait and see was it Madara that told him to kill the Uchiha clan my god that may be it?

Pein Akatsuki leader

Pein

Membership status: Active leader
Ring: é›¶ ("nothing", "zero")
Ring position: Right thumb
Partner: Unnamed member
First cameo: Chapter 238; Naruto Episode 135
First appearance: Chapter 363
Defining characteristics: Spiked, auburn hair, unusual eyes, and numerous piercings.

Pein (ãƒšã‚¤ãƒ³, Pein^?) is leader of Akatsuki and a missing-nin from Amegakure. None of the other Akatsuki members aside from the unnamed member refer to him by name, instead simply calling him "leader," and his face is rarely shown. He has the respect of most of his subordinates (Hidan is an exception) and is the one directing their actions. He is also the one to initiate and supervise the jutsu that forcibly brings a tailed beast out of its host. He can also use the Shapeshifting Technique (è±¡è»¢ã®è¡“, ShÅten no Jutsu^?) to clone his subordinates using human sacrifices, allowing them to engage the enemy without risking themselves. The clones formed are a perfect copy of the target, even possessing the kekkei genkai and unique weapons of the original. Their abilities are proportionate to the amount of chakra given to the clone (in its debut, he requested thirty percent). When it becomes necessary to gather his subordinates, he can communicate with them over long distances through some form of telepathy.

Though Pein seems to be in a position of authority over the other Akatsuki members, he also reports to someone else above him. After Deidara's death, this person assigns him to capture Naruto directly, unwilling to accept any more failures. The identity of this person or his role within Akatsuki is as of yet undetermined.

While Pein has remained mostly anonymous, the cover of chapter 317 depicts him with auburn hair. He is seen sitting on an odd statue with many tubes winding through it, commenting that Hidan and Kakuzu are always causing trouble. The statue is located in a city much more modern than is common for the series, and has tubes similar to those in the statue winding through its various buildings. He also has unusual eyes, with several increasingly lighter gray circles around the pupil and a pink outline on the corners of his eyes.

Pein has displayed at least a cursory knowledge of the various villages, as well as the underlying political and economic conditions in the country at large. When Hidan referred to the Konoha-nin as "godless heathens," he gave a short description of Konoha's "Will of Fire," then proceeded to note that all countries have some similar practice to justify their battles.^[7]
