  Speaker 1: It Tashi's skill as a shanobi is often debated. Could
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: it be that he was the strongest uchih to ever live?
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: And they say this crazy thing when Madera Uchih is
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: right there. What I'm not a moderist, Dan, You're just
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: a denier. Oh well, all right. I mean Itachi as
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: an eedotense was stronger than pain and naruto and eto
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: tense makes you weaker. So if an etotense Iachi is
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: stronger than a living one, we see how much his
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: disease nerved him. Some people question what it would have
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: been like if Iachi hadn't been nerfed half to death
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: and back like he had been, And the answer is
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: he probably would have been really, really strong. But you
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: know me, sometimes a good story is better than any boost.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: So go ahead and put your calculators away and let
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: me cook you up a tasty story about what if
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Itachi never got sick? Welcome to the Imagi. Only twenty
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: five percent of our viewers are subscribed, so if you're
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: a fan of the video, please like and double check
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: if you are subscribed. And with that out of the way,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: let's get into the video. You are perhaps the greatest
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: shnobi in our generation, came the voice of a happy father.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: You very well could be the strongest uchi Ha to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: ever walk the earth. You could become the strongest Shinobi
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: in history, Fugaku said as he held his son above
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: his head, Itachi laughing like a child does when given
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: the unrelenting attention and care they so crave. Father and
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: son was such a precious bond. This was way back
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: during the simple times, back when everyone was happy, when
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: blessings came down upon the house of Uchiha like drops
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: of rain. But we all knew that it wouldn't last forever,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: and we never knew that it would end the way
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: it did. I'd looked back on it sometimes in wonder
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: did I do everything I could have? Was there more
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: I could do? I am but a human, a shanobi
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: blessed with skill, abilities and resources. But what I am
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: anyone could have been. At my heart, I am just
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: a man. This same outcome could have been the same
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: for anyone. It could have been anyone, and in any
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: other world it could have been me who was laying
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: on the ground dying instead of my family. I question
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: why it had to come to this, why it needed
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: to be this way? Iachi sat there in the darkness
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: in his arms. He cradled tight the young Saske in
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: his arms as the boy struggled with the very functions
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: required for life. As tears ran down i Tachi's cheeks,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: he begged Saske to fight. I didn't give up everything
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: for this, he shouted. I did the hard thing, and
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: now you damn well better do it too. You hear me, Saske,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: You damn well better fight. The forest was quiet. The
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: green was deep with darkness, only shafts of light pouring
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: down from the canopy above. The birds chirped, and the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: sound of flowing water could be heard, the flowing sound
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: of water and drums, the drums of war, the drums
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: of the heart beating in your ear. A shadow passed
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: by quickly, and moments later it was followed by two
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: others coming to a stop. The man looked back at
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: his pursuers, two very powerful shinobi, one he had worked with.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: You need to come back with us, Mukai Iachi said,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: as he stood there holding his tonto. Muki looked up
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: into the trees with a sigh. He raised his fingers
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: in a half ram sign for a second, as if
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: activating anijutsu, though nothing happened. However, his chakra flared momentarily.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I'm going to need to find a way to explain
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: this to my boy, he said, having reassimilated the chakra
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: he lost to create a shadow clone to spend time
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: with his ill child. Itachi stood there with Shisui beside him,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Mukai stretched a little preparing for an intense fight. Shisui
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: and i Tachi had followed this man here under orders
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: straight from Donzo Shimura, who had told them that Mukai
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: had betrayed the village and its secrets to the village
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: hidden in the midst This was a shame to Iachi,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: as he had been in many teams with Mukai and
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: had always seen him as a very honorable warrior, proud
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: and strong. He recalled the time they had to go
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: to Suna to witness the advent of a secret meeting
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: to formalize an alliance between the Mist and the Sand,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: but during their mission, one of the men flubbed it
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: and they were chased without hope of escape. Mukai elected
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: to remain behind to protect them from the Sand Ninja.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Itachi was sure he'd never see Mukai again. But like
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the athlete's foot, Ittachi kept applying powder to you couldn't
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: seem to get rid of him. Iachi had trusted Mukai,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: had believed in Mukai, respected him as one of his
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: own personal heroes, and now to find out that he
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: was a trader was in all ways soul crushing. Despite
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: that anger and rage, he didn't want to kill Mukai.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: He wanted him to surrender so they could take him
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: back for justice. But Mukai alone understood the gravity of
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: his crimes and the punishment of them. There was no
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: going back at this moment. There were only two choices,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: life or death, and that's why, with next to no
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: more chatter, they entered into battle. Mukai rushed at Iachi
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: to disembowel him with a blade strike, but that Iachi
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: he struck turned out to be a crow clone. Surprised,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: he was then attacked by Shisui, who had attempted to
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: make use of the opening that Mukai had left in
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: his attack on Iachi's clone, But Mukai was not to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: be so easily taken. The two traded blows to no avail,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: nothing ever connecting. All the while, Iachi was no whay
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to be seen. Iachi was waiting in silence, waiting for
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the perfect time to attack, but where Mukai did the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: best thing he could to guess. He assumed that this
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: plan wasn't i Tachi's alone and that Shisuwi was in
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: on it too, meaning he could glean enough information just
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: from Shisui's movements and actions. Chisuwe pushed his advantages hard
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and Mukai began to suspect that Shisuwi was steering him somewhere.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Using this information, he realized where Iachi was hiding. There
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: was only one thing he could do now when that
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: was spring the trap. Iachi was banking on the element
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: of surprise, but now that Mukai knew of his location,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the only surprise would be Iachi's realization that he'd lost
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the advantage to Mukai. Kicking at Shisuwi, he broke off
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: from him and stepped into Iachi's killbox. At that moment,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Iachi sprung into action, intent to use his Sharanghan to
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: cast genjutsu on Mukai and capture him, but it didn't work.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Mukai was privy to his location and now it was
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: too late. Muki turned around, avoiding eye contact with Iachi
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: and activated his own hidden beyond kuan, a single white
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: eye inherited from his own diluted Huga blood, activating the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: gentle fist series of techniques, Mukai struck out at Itachi,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: stabbing at his ten katsu with nothing but pointed strikes
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: designed to incapacitate and sadly kill his former comrade. However,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: just as he went to deliver the fatal blow, Mukai's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: eye saw not the face of Itachi, but instead the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: face of his own eleven year old son staring back
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: at him. He hesitated. This gave Shisui the chance to
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: attack from behind, hoping to use the bia kugan's blind
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: spot as cover. But the attack was imperfect, and Mukai
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: saw a touch of a foot in his peripheral He
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: knew that Shisui was using his blind spot. Turning around,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: he caught Shisui by the throat and held him there.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Mukai was split. They were enemy Shinobi to be killed.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: This was the flaw of the way Konoha worked, the
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: way the Shanobi world worked. Say what you will about
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: the curse of hatred, Mukai was never sure about that.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: What he did focus on was the need for reform.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Child's soldiers were never going to be a good idea
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: and were as morally dark as anything. Mukai, of course
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: believed this because he was a father himself, and maybe
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Donzo knew that and had sent these two knowing that
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: deep down, Mukai didn't have the heart to kill them.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Ianchi began to approach despite being hit with a gentle fist.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: What movements he could make were all made for Shisui's defense.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Slowly drawing near with his sharangn activated, Mukai spoke to
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: i Tachi, don't even try it. Your sharinggun's genjutsu is
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: not strong enough to overpower my biyaku gan's resistance. Is
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: that so, Shisui said, drawing Mukai's attention. Suddenly, Mukai's eye
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: made contact with a mungek yo Sharanghan. Upon doing so,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: he felt overwhelmed by ganjutsu. As pre programmed. To keep
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: himself from being taken in for interrogation, Muki pulled his
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: blade and drove it into his own stomach, surprising Shisui
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: and Iachi both why, Iachi asked, as Mukai fell to
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the ground. We both know that I wouldn't survive interrogation.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: I'm a trader. I sold out Konoha and its secrets.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Muky said, no, why did you betray us in the
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: first place, Iachi asked. Muki looked to Iachi and spoke,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you are forced to make a tough decision that
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: you don't want to make. He said, my son is sick.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: The only hope he has is a rare and expensive treatment,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: one that I can't afford on my paycheck. I was
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: left no other option. Kitty paid well for the secrets,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: and I use that money for my son. Looking to
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: the two of them, he spoke, as Shinobi, god, family, country,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: But when those three things conflict, which will you choose?
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Which will you be forced to choose over the others.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: In my case, I had to choose between my country
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: and my family. My country wasn't helping me. Some may
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: say different, but for me, the idea of watching my
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: son dying slowly of something I could have treated outweighed
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: the pain of my country's scorn. And what about the
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: people who would die due to your decisions? We asked,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: you know what happens when you sell information to the enemy.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: The enemy uses it to destroy us. It's why they're
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: called the enemy. Your decision could see the deaths of
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: countless sons robbed from their fathers and mothers by things
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that could have been prevented. Does your logic still hold
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: up now? Muki reached into his pocket for a cigarette,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: pulling it out, he struggled to put it in his mouth.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I never claimed it, did, he said, trying to light it,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: but finding his motor functions failing. Iachi took the lighter
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: up in his hand and brought it to the face
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: of Mukai, where he lit the cigarette for him. Muki
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: took a deep breath in of the smoke. Looking at Shisui,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: he asked the question, what was that I of yours
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: called Shisuwe let the question hang without an answer. Muki
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: let out a sigh and spoke again. If you had
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: to choose between two duties, if you lost everything and
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: there was no right choice to make, which would you choose?
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: And with that Mukai was gone. Itachi sat there as
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the cigarette began to sag from his lip, watching it
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: fall to the ground. Iachi and she s we would
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: make it known that Mukai worked alone. His family would
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: suffer enough without him to bring Konoha's government down upon them,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: for something like this would just be too cruel. Mukai
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: paid for his crimes and now it was time to forget.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: But all the same, Iachi couldn't forget. He watched over
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the family of Mukai for a time until the illness
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: finally caught up with Mukai's son. The family was rocked
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: by these two losses. Without Mukai to protect them, they
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: were cast about like a ship on uncertain waves, and
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: with the death of his son from this illness, it
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: seemed as though there was very little left to call
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: a family anymore. They held tight to each other, but
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: they were in a dark tunnel, and even if there
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: was light at the end, they did not see it.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: They gave up on leaving long ago, and that was
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: the tragedy of this. Iachi began to contemplate everything as
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: he went home. Getting back to his home, he had
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a life to enjoy, which made him feel blessed, but
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: the words of Mukai Kohinata never left his mind. As
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: the next two years went by, however, the world around
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: them continued to change. Itachi found himself thrown into a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: conflict with his father that he never wanted. The times
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: where he was carried on his father's shoulders, the time
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: when he was held up high and spun around as
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: though he were caught in a tornado of love, were gone.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: You're a man now, he was told. If you think
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: you're old enough to go against me, then you're too
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: old for things like that. Fugaku would let him know
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: in no uncertain terms. With the entire village seeming to
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: turn against the Uchiha, and the Uchiha seeming to turn
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: against the village slowly as though he had been cursed
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: by Mukai, he now found himself in a similar position.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Choose between your duties. The only comfort that Iachi had
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: was in his little brother. Unable to find the same
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: level of comfort in his father that he used to,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: he instead showered Saske with everything Iachi himself couldn't have
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: in hopes of fostering that relationship. Saske was in the academy, too,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: attempting to become a shenobi, and though Iachi never wanted
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: his brother to become like him, he knew that there
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: was no stopping him. Saske was Oh, go go all
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the time, and he struggled and fought through things that
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: lesser children would collapse to, all in the effort to
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: prove that he was as strong as everyone else, unaware
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: that he was showing himself stronger. Saske was his precious
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: little brother, the one he would do all for, and
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: as they trained, they also played, making their exercises into
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: something fun. As they jumped through the forest playing a
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: nice game of tag. It was Saske who was running
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: and laughing from Iachi as he chased the young fellow
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: through the woods. It became clear that Saske was getting
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: a bit tired, so as he slowed down, Iachi came
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: up behind him and grabbed him tag. He shouted, you're
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: it Now it's your turn, he said. Iachi began to
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: rush off, but Saske didn't follow. Iachi looked back, seeing
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Saske leaned up against a tree. He stopped and began
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to return Saske, he asked. Saske coughed into his hand
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: and wheezed a bit. Is it your asthma again? Get
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: you're inhaler, he said. Saske fumbled for it in his pocket,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: pulling it free. His hand shook and he dropped it.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Iachi bent down to pick it up. After doing so,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: he brought it up to Saske, who coughed again. Looking
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: into his hands, Saske saw blood and began to panic.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: It Tachi, blood, he said. Iachi stood up and looked
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: at Saske's hand. He didn't want to panic. Did you
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: cut yourself? He asked. Checking over the hand, he saw
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: no wounds. Saske coughed into his other hand, standing it
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: red as well. Iachi saw this and was stunned. It
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: was at about that time as Saske wheezed that he
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: fell to his knees and then against the tree. Saske
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Iachi shouted as he knelt down beside his kid brother.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I Tachi, something's not right, he said, I'll get you help.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Just stay calm okay. Loading Saske up on his back,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: he began to make his way back to their home.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Getting there, he called out Mom, Dad, he shouted. As
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: he entered the home. Makoto was the first one to
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: draw near, hearing her name called. Seeing Itachi carrying Saske,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: she rushed over. Is Saske alright? She asked, I don't know,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: something's wrong. She helped unload Saske. Onto the ground. Saske
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: was trembling from fear and from weakness. What happened to him?
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: At about that time, Fugaku came into the room. What happened?
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: He was just running around with me, playing tag, and
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: suddenly he stopped and started hacking up blood. Makoto checked
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Saske's hands and saw the blood. The response in Makoto
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: is immediate, close to panic, but her Shanobi training kicks in.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: He needs a doctor, she said, looking up at Fugaku.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Load him up, We'll go see one of the clan doctors.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Taking Saske, they brought him to one of the doctors
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: trusted by their family. Upon examination, they told them that
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Saske's illness was, sadly, somewhat common in the Shanobi world.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: What it was, what the cause was, and how to
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: fix it was still unknown to them. All they had
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: was a medication to help with the symptoms. The sad
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: news was that it was a deadly illness with no
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: survival rate. All they could do was keep him happy.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: How much time does he have, Fugaku asked. The doctor shrugged.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: This is an unusual illness. Its progression isn't measurable. The
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: same way as others. Its advancement can take years or
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: only weeks, and his end could either be something new
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: u coming, or it could be rather immediate and unexpected.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: We simply don't know what this illness is or how
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: it works, just that it has these symptoms, and these
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: symptoms are what we can treat, the doctor said. I'm sorry.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: The doctor's words stung. It hurt to think that it
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: was possible that they might lose Sask at any moment,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: and so they just did what they could and took
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: him home to care for him. Just like the doctor said.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: The disease progression was strange. He had high energy days
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: and low energy days. On some days he was up
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: out of bed, running around and playing like a nut job,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: and the next he was bed ridden. It was the
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: saddest thing you could have ever seen, and he Tachi
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: was the one who was upset about it most. Maybe
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: we can take him to Conaha General. They might have
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: more they can do about it, He said, what's Conoha
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: gonna do? Look at him and tell us the same thing,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: This is an unknown illness. The same place as our
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: doctors learned, are the same place as Knoha's doctors learned.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: There would be no difference. Fugaku said, maybe they've made advancements,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: maybe they have experiments. You don't know, Itachi said, I
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: do know, and you know what else I know. I
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: don't want to give them another thing to hold over me.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: This isn't about you, dad, Iachi shouted, it's not. It's
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: about the family, and we're not the only members of it.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: As they stood there, breathing intensely from their argument, they
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: both looked into each other's eyes. There was a mutual
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: understanding between them that neither could agree about. They were
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: really just scared for Saske. But in the end, there
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: were other differences between them that wouldn't allow either to
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: concede or agree with the other, and so as Fugaku
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: kept searching for his answers within the Uchihak clan, Iachi
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: went searching for his answers outside of it. Iachi would
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: spend his time off away from missions researching illnesses similar
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: to what Saske was displaying and searching for any information
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: on it from any of the village's medical records. All
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: mentioned the same unknown illness with a one hundred percent
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: mortality rate. Due to unidentifiability, Shisui would come up to
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Iachi as he searched. Are you still searching? Shisui would ask,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Iachi would not. Are we gonna talk about the uchiha Chisu,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: we asked? I Tanchi then spoke, I recently discovered that
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the same disease saske has is what Mukai's son died of.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Shisuwi was silent for a moment. I am sorry about this,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: I Tachi, but we need to consider what to do
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: about the klan and its dealings with the village. Things
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: are heading for a breaking point soon and we need
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: to be prepared, Shisui. I'm doing something important here, more
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: important than world's security. Shisa We asked. Ianchi couldn't respond.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Shisui let out a sigh. I'll just have to do
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: it myself. Then, I Tanchi would continue searching for answers,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: but as he worked well into the night, he still
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: turned up nothing, and the searching was taking its toll
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: on him. Even though the mind wasn't a physical thing,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: he felt it straining, as though two hands were on
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: either end, pulling it into a knee positioned in the center.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: He felt his mind close to snapping. He was frustrated
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: to the point of lashing out. I give up, he said.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: It really is hopeless. There's no cure. Are you really
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: so sure about that? Another voice said from behind. Ianchi
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: turned around to look. Who's there? He called out, Then,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: as if a being made of the shadows itself, emerged
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: from the darkness, the familiar and somewhat unwelcomed face of
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Donzo Shimura appeared. Don't you think you're giving up too soon?
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: He asked. Itachi, not in the mood for these games,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: sat back down in the chair. I'm not giving up.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: I'm still looking, he said. Donzo let out a sigh.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: If only you weren't wasting your time looking in the
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: wrong places, Iachi looked back, confusedly. Explain, Donzo spoke, the
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: cure to the disease you seek does in fact exist. However,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: you won't find it on any database you search. Its
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: existence is a secret held only by a select few,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: and you're one of them, Itachi asked, with skepticism tinging
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: his voice. Perhaps, and maybe I'm willing to share it.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Iachi just stared on as Donzo spoke, the cure you
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: search for exists, and root possesses it. The cured Desauske's illness,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: and I will give it to you, But there's a catch.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: A catch, Itachi asked. Donzo nodded. In this world exist
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: without a price. What do you want, Iachi asked. Donzo
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: then held up a hand with two fingers stretched out
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: toward the ceiling. First, I want you to retrieve from
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: me the Mungyakyo Sharringhan of Shisui Uchiha and end his life.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Itachi was mortified. Shisui was like a brother to him.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: How could he be asked to do these things? Why?
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Iachi asked, The level of power that exists within those
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: eyes are too dangerous for an Uchiha to control. He
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: could easily turn against us and misuse his Mongyakyo Sharanghan
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: for his own gain. Shisui wouldn't do such a thing,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: it Tachi said, you think not. Donzo said, Mukai wouldn't
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: have done it, either, would he. Iachi was caught off
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: guard by the mentioning of Mukai. Donzo then spoke his
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: second condition, the eradication of the Uchiha clan. Kill them all,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: he said. Iachi almost felt as though he were punched
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: in the gut. What you can't ask me to do that?
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: He shouted, Donzo sighed, listen it, Tachi. We all know
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the uchi Ha a planning and uprising, and there's nothing
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: that can stop it. This plan with shisuiz Mongekyo to
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: convince them not to It's a temporary fix, a band aid.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: It will only take one off color word, one phrase
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: to tell them that they're being controlled, to break them
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: free and make the situation even worse. As Iachi sat
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: there listening, Donzo continued, If the Uchiha rise up, it
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: will weaken Konoha. You remember the mission we sent you
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: in Mukai's timon Dsuna to spy on the sand and
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the Mist's alliance. If the Uchiha rise against us, the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: next world war will start. And you know this. The
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: only option is to cut out the sickness before it festers.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Itachi sat there, rubbing his face, conflicted. Donzo stepped closer.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Take my suggestion or not. What will happen is going
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: to happen whether you do it or not. However, if
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: you get me that sharing ghan and you manage to
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: eliminate the entire Uchiha clan, not only will you survive,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: but I will see to it that your brother receives
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: adequate and the cure to his illness. All you have
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: to do is make that decision. Donzo began to disappear,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: back into the shadows from which he came. We can
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: do this my way or your way. The choice is yours,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: and with that, Donzo was gone. As Iachi went home,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: he went to bed, getting back when everyone was asleep,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Itachi laid down in his bed to rest and began
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: to think about these things. He thought about the Uchiha clan,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: about Shisui, and about the world as a whole. Could
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: their plan work or would it be too easy for
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: it all to fall apart. Itachi went over he and
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Shisuwe's plan in his head, as well as what the
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: kodo Amatsukami was. It wasn't a strong ganjutsu. It was subtle.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: It didn't blind people the truth. It merely convinced them
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: to change their perspective. Theoretically, if they ever found out
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: that they had been influenced by it, it was possible
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: that they would turn back further. And if the Uchiha
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: ever did rise up after that, the entire world would
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: take notice and act upon it, pouncing on Konaha while
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: it was at its weakest. That was just the simple
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: truth of the matter. I Tachi sat there and thought
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: about it. His eyes were stuck on the ceiling of
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: his room. The clock said it was three am. His
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: rest would be nothing more than a light sleep, it seemed,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: that was, if he could get to sleep at all.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: As he laid there attempting to sleep, he heard the
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: distant sound of coughing. Getting up out of bed, he
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: walked to a room with a closed door and listened
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: in to hear more coughing. Drawing closer to the bed,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I Tachi knelt down beside it and pushed Saske's hair
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: out of his face. You okay, he asked. Saske nodded.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Just a coughing fit, no bleeding right. Saske showed a
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: handkerchief he kept with him for just such fits. There
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: was a touch of blood on it, but nothing too
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: bad it. Tachi could see Saske's entire torso clinching every
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: so often, trying to choke the cough. My throat hurts,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: and so does my chest. The more I cough, the
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: more I bleed. If I stop coughing, maybe I'll stop
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: bleeding and hurting. It's just it's hard to do, he said,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I Tachi nodded his head. You're a real trooper, you
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: know that. Saske nodded slowly. I wish I wasn't sick.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I want to go back to the academy. I Tachi
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: sat there silently. I know, he said. A tear ran
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: down Saske's cheek. I don't want to die. I Tanchi's
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: heart shattered. He spent the rest of that night with Saske,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: keeping his little brother company and helping him try to
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: get back to sleep with his own rhythmic breathing. The
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: next day, Shisui got a call from Itachi. Something urgent
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: came up. I need to meet you at the usual spot,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: he said. Shisui was concerned what could have happened that
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: would require an emergency meeting between the two. Getting his things,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: he made his way to the Knakar River, where he
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: found Iachi sitting on a stump, disheveled, tired and strained.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Are you okay? He asked. I Tachi shook his head, No,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not. Is it Saskehisui asked, is he okay? Ianchi
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: looked back at Chisui, exposing the tear stains on his face.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: I Tanchi turned his gaze back to the river. You know,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the words Muki said to us that day always stuck
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: with me. But I never thought I could ever understand
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: why he did what he did, But now I think
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: I do Itachi said, I know why he did what
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: he did, the desperation, the need for a way out
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: that nobody can provide save the enemy. Enemy. Shisui asked,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I Tachi, what are you doing? I Tachi stood up.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Root has resources, a lot of resources, information that doesn't
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: exist anywhere else for the public. I couldn't say no.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I simply can't refuse. It was an offer. I didn't
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: have the chance to refuse. You can't you can't ask
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: me not to. Shisui stood silently. What did Donzo ask
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: you for? I Tanchi then spoke three things. You're sharing Gohan,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: your life, and the extermination of our clan, and you
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: made the decision to give him what he asked for.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: I Tachi stood silently for a moment. I'm sorry, Shisui.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Shisui shook his head, no, I'm sorry. Suddenly, Shisui pulled
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: out his tonto and turned to block the blade of Ianchi, who,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: having come up behind him, struck the clone Shisui had
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: been talking to manifested its blade and ran at him,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: only to receive a kick in the sternum enough to
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: break bone and cause the clone to disappear. Iachi jumped
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: back and performed great fireball jutsu, only to have that
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: matched by one of Shisuwi's great fireball jutsu. Shisu We
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: activated his mongekyo sharinghan. As the two stepped back, shisu
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: We spoke, I'm sorry, Itachi, sorry for what you haven't
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: done anything. No, I'm sorry that grief and insanity have
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: taken you. I truly thought of you like a brother,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: but I see that our bond simply wasn't strong enough.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: Tears began to run down i Tachi's face. I never
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: wanted this to be like this, but but Donzo made
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: you choose, and you chose Saske over everything else. If
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: you think I'm mad at you, I'm not. I'm just
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: disappointed that our relationship has come to this. I'm now
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: forced to do the one thing you weren't strong enough
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: to do, sacrifice my brother for the greater good. Once more,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: they went at each other, their blades striking and bouncing.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Shisui was no longer playing around Itachi had made his choice,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: and he was going to make his own. At about
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: this time, a large green Susano forms and strikes down
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: at I Tachi, who catches the blade. With this Tanto,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: growling and screaming. Just to keep the blade up, Iachi
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: summoned his will. The thought of what he would lose,
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: the thought of what he would gain, the thought that
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: there was no right choice and either way he'd be
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: forced to sacrifice all of it, along with the current stress,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: overloaded him emotionally, and in that moment, in response to
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: his anger and hatred of the fact that he couldn't
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: just have everything go back to the way at once was,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: saw Itachi's own sharing gun evolve into a mongekio. With them,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: he summoned his own crimson Susano and began to swing
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: its blade. The power of Itachi Susano was something unusual,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: and perhaps it was brought on by pure hysterical strength,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: but he broke through the defenses of the Susano, and
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: the moment their eyes made contact, the entire world for
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Shisui began to fall away. He looked around in horror
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: at what he was seeing. As I Tachi drew closer
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: unable to be damaged by any attack. His hand reaching forward,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: he pressed his fingers against the bocket of Shisui's eye
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: and began to push Shisuei let out a cry as
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: his eye was pulled from its socket. A moment later,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: the second was taken blinded. He screamed, Itachi, we didn't
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: have to do this if you would come to me.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: If I had come to you, Itachi said, I would
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: have lost everything, and with that he drove his blade
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: into Shisui's chest, piercing his heart. As Shisui bled out
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: and perished, Iachi grabbed the body and dragged to the
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: edge of the cliff, dropping it into the river. The
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: body fell and splashed against the water, and as it did,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Iachi finally permitted himself to cry, letting out a cry
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: so loud that the birds fled from the nearby forest.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: He wailed as though he had just been forced to
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: cut off his own leg. Itachi would have preferred that
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: over this. Looking at the two Crimson orbs in his hand,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: he knew he had exactly what Donzo desired. Taking them
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: to Donzo, the man looked them over. I'm glad you
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: came to your senses Iachi, he said, looking at the
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: boy now dead behind the eyes. Now there is only
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: one more thing to do, eliminate the Uchiha clan, and
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: I will heal your brother. The question for Itachi was
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: how he was going to be able to do this.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: There was no way that he alone could destroy all
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: of the Uchiha, and so he requisitioned some help from
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: another who would approach him in his time of need. Together,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: together with this person, Iachi would begin to destroy the
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Uchiha clan. The last house Iachi visited was his own. Entering,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: he found his parents and eliminated them. The pain in
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: him was so great that it dulled his comprehension. Dropping
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: his blade, he stepped out and took a deep and
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: shaky breath. Going upstairs, he stopped for a quick shower
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: before changing into something new. Entering Saske's room, he found
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: his little brother sleeping. Grabbing a blanket, he scooped the
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: boy up in his arms and wrapped him. Saske awakened
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: for only a moment to let out a cough before
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: going back to sleep. With the deed done it, Tachi
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: sought out Donzo, but all he found were root ninja
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: intent to kill him. I Tachi's whole world shattered in
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: that moment. He knew he lied to me. There never
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: was a cure. He made me kill the Uchiha, kill
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: my best friend, and then threw me away, his rage
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: building up, yet all the same he had nowhere to
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: put it. Running from root Shnobi, Iachi was about to die,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: and his little brother was about to be killed with him.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I was a fool, Iachi said. Unbeknownst to him, his
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: masked partner was watching this unfold, and a part of
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: him was moved in compassion. He did promise to join
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: the Yakatski, he said to himself, he can't do that
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: if he's dead, and so Obito rushed over, killing me,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: pursuing anbou, and then went to Ianchi, where he proceeded
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: to use his kamowe to teleport them out. They took
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: a boat to the location of the Yakatski base, and
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: during the ride, Iachi held his sleeping brother in his arms.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: I was a fool for trusting Donzo. Oh you don't say,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: the masked man said. I thought he really had it.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: I was wrong, and now not only is every other
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: member of my family but Saske dead, but so too
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: is my best friend, and all of that for some
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: cure to my brother's illness that doesn't exist the mass.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: This man was silent for a moment. Your brother may
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: yet have a chance, i Tachi looked back. Obito continued.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Among our ranks is a brilliant scientist named Orochimaru. He
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: may be able to find the answers you seek, but
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: be aware he rarely works for free. He may attempt
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: to impose a cost upon you that you're unwilling to pay.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: I've already paid a price i'd normally be unwilling to pay.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: I just want my brother to get better, Iachi said.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: Then I'll introduce you to him, but don't say I
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: didn't warn you. In the halls of the Yakatski's secret base,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: a meeting was called to officially initiate Iachi into the
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: ranks of the Yakatski. You know we do not often
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: make allowances for children as well, Payne said, as he
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: looked on at i Tachi. My little brother's all I
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: have left. You can't make me let him go. It
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: seems nobody'll be forced to. Looks like your little brother
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: will go all of his own accord. Joos O Biwa said,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: looking at Iachi with the smile of a shark. I.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Tachi's eyes cut into jew uzzoh like fire, and by
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: the looks of the mongekio that had activated, Itachi was
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: seriously debating, turning that figurative language literal enough. Paine said,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: because you are a strange circumstance, we have made the
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: executive decision to admit your brother too. He will be
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: protected so long as you do your work. But we
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: do expect you to work. We have no use for
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: a dead beach Shinobi, Pain said, bring him his cloak.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: From there, One of the Yokotski's members drew closer, a
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: cloak in hand, he passed it to Itachi as Iachi
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: put a mark through the headband that bore the leaf symbol,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: putting the cloak on and restoring his headband to his head.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Pain welcomed Itachi to their ranks and explained that he
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: was to be partnered with Juso. I don't think that's
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: such a good idea, boss, I don't think the kid
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: likes me. Pain looked back, his legendary eyes cutting into
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Juso and Itachi. Both what he likes and what you
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: like are irrelevant. Perhaps the anger you have towards one
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: another may be put to more construction. Use you are dismissed,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Juso nodded, surrendering to Paine's decision. Iachi would later leave
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: the room and make his way to the room he'd
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: been allotted within. He found Saske laying on the bed.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Big brother, where are we? What's going on? Itachi sat
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: by the bedside with him and gently placed his hand
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: upon Saske's head. It's okay, You're safe, Itachi said. Where's
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Mama and Papa? He asked. Itachi didn't have it in
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: his heart to tell Saske what he had done or why.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: He simply spoke, don't worry, you'll see them again one day.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: And this was true. Saske would see them again one day,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: but hopefully not for a very long time. At about
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: this moment, a pale skinned snake wandered into their room,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: leaning against the door. A little bertie told me you
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: were looking for me, he said with a sly smile,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: his piercing eye narrowing to enjoy the moment of desperation.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Iachi looked back a Rochi Maru. The man nodded, that
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: is in my name. Try not to overuse it, I
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Tachi thought for a moment. May we speak outside, he asked.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru nodded, Come, let us work out the
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: details of our arrangement. Iachi stepped outside and closed the door.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: I need you to do me a favor, I Tachi said.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: You should know I don't do favors. If you want
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: something from me, you must pay for it. Itachi looked
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: down for a moment and then back up again. Fair,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: what I want from you is to find the cure
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Desaske's illness, and in exchange, whatever excess funds I attain
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: from work that do not go predominantly to keeping myself
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: and my brother alive will be yours, I Tachi said.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru laughed as though this were the most
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: ridiculous thing he'd ever heard. You think money is going
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: to be enough to get my help, A rochi Maru asked.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Itachi stared at a rochi Maru for a moment. Then
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: what A rochi Maru then spoke, I propose a trade,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: a life for a life. Who do you want me
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: to kill? Iachi asked, you misunderstand it, Tachi, I'm not
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: asking for you to kill anyone. What I'm saying is
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I want your body. I'm straight, Itachi said. A Rochi
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Maru laughed again. Was that a joke or do you
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: truly not understand what I mean? Itachi was silent. Arochi
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Maru continued, I possess ninjutsu that allows me to jump
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: from one body to another. Through doing so, I gain
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: all of the abilities of those I transfer to you.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Will sacrifice your life and give me your body to
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: use as a vessel, and in exchange, I will heal Saske.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Itachi let out an exasperated sigh. Could this man be serious?
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: Is this truly the only thing you'll help Saske in
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: exchange for, Iachi asked. A Rochi Maru nodded. I want
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: this from you, and this alone. Iachi let out a sigh. Fine,
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: I'll give it to you, but only after you heal Saske.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru smiled. Then we have a deal, but
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: I will need a little insurance. A Rochi Maru said,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: lower your collar, show me your neck. A moment later,
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: a Rochi Maru bit him. In doing so, he gave
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: him a cursemark. This cursemark was a jumble of the
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: DNA of many people, including Jugo, but further, it contained
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: of Rochi Maru's own DNA which would aid in the transference.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: After the successful medical trials, Itanchi gripped at his neck
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: and felt his body spasming. What did you do? I
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: branded you with my cursemark. When the end of the
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: bargain is completed, you will complete your end of it
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: as well. Now I recommend you go to rest while
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: your body makes the decision if it's even compatible or not.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru walked away. It Tanchi's body would accept
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: the cursemark and further would augment him with more powers,
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: a scary amount of power, honestly, so much so that
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: he tended to hide it from others, as he knew
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: that that if it came out, how truly strong he was,
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: now that his full potential was awakened by this curse mark,
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: that even pain would be below him, they would try
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: to kill him. From here, he tended to do his
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: work with quiet contentment, not making a fuss, and giving
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: his proper tribute to the Yakatsky as a whole, helping
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: support the group. Arriving back one day, he would find
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: that they'd moved Saske to one of Aurochi Maru's laboratories,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: and with the blessing of pain, Iachi moved out to
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: that location to be with his brother. It was a
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: lot roomier than the busted out old cave that was
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: the Aukotsky's current base of operations, and Iachi began to
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: wonder why the Yakatski didn't just move in with Arochi Maru.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: But he supposed that there were many reasons why that
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: was a bad idea. In fact, Iachi felt like it
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: was a bad idea for he himself to be living here,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: but he didn't say anything. Instead, he focused on Saske.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: He found Saske in a bed laying flat, hooked up
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: to various machines. He didn't seem too happy, He seemed weak.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: What are you doing to him? Iachi asked, the old
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: snake doctor things. What else I need more than that,
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: I Tachi said, getting defensive. Arochi Maru scoffed, and I
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: told you exactly what I'm doing. Your brother is sick,
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: and I am a scientist searching for a cure. Battling
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: disease is hard, and it requires things that oftentimes are unpleasant,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: such as what I am soon to do, but as
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: a doctor, I must do them, and as the relative
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: of the patient, your job is to keep your nose clear.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: I can't work if you won't let me, and if
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: you won't let me, then your brother dies and his
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: blood will be on your hands. I Tachi hated this response,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: hated even more that he was right. They were both
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: at Arochi Maru's mercy. Can you at least tell me
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: what you're doing next, only if you promise to trust
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: my judgment, A Rochi Maru said, Iachi nodded, I do
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: A rochi Maru then pulled around and displayed a long,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: thin cable. What is that. It's a camera. I plan
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: to put this down your brother's throat and into his
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: lungs so that I can actually see what's going on
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: in there. Exploratory surgery. Very little is known about this disease,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: and the only way for me to cure it is
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: to do the one thing that nobody has ever done,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: and that is to discover the true nature of the illness.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: You never know, Itachi. It's highly possible that this might
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: even produce the cure for other kids in such states.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: He said, imagine that winning a peace prize while existing
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: in a war mongering terrorist organization. Only I could be
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: capable of such a thing, if you say so, Itachi retorted,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I do say so, Orochimru said, turning to face Saske.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: First things first, though, he said, I need to put
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: your brother to sleep. He pulled a mask out. This
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: mask would fill Saske's lungs with a powerful anesthetic. Eventually
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: Saske would be out like a light. As he laid there,
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Arochimru proceeded to replace the breathing mask with a more
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: invasive tube, feeding the gas directly into his lungs. Once
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: that was done, he proceeded to slide the camera down
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: Saske's throat, keeping his eyes on the monitor showing the
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: feed it. Tachi watched as well. The camera made its
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: way through the trachea leading to the lungs, running parallel
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: to the tube pumping anesthetics. In reaching the bronchye, he
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: slid it through. Already there are abnormal signs, a Roachi
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: Maru said, making his way deeper, he kept an eye open.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Looking through, he noted that there were signs of fibrosis,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: a build up of fibrous tissue. Further, there seemed to
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: be signs and symptoms of bleeding in the alveoli. But
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: why there's a lot of inflammation, A Roachi Maru said,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: this is interesting. Do you understand what it is? It?
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Tachi asked. A. Rochi Maru shook his head. I've been
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: studying other forms of similar illness, but nobody has a
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: clue what it could be. I do have a theory, though,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: but to prove it, I'm going to need to perform
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: a biopsy. Itachi seemed nervous. How will you perform it?
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Do you know what vats is is? He asked it.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Tachi shook his head. It's a newer style. It's called
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: video assisted thoroscopic surgery. It's minimally invasive compared to other methods,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: and will require me to cut into the lung from
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: the outside. It shouldn't cause too much pain for your brother,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: and it will allow me to get a big enough
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: sample to determine if my theory is correct. Or Rochi
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Maru said, but for that, I will need some time.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Why don't you go see if there are any missions
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: for you from Lord pain. If there are, perhaps take
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: care of those first and return to me later. I
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: may have answers at that time. You expect me to
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: leave my brother alone while you potentially butcher him, Iachi asked,
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: his voice rising a bit past comfort levels. You promise
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: to trust my judgment or are you in the business
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: of not making good on your agreements? Itachi let out
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: a sigh. Fine, good, now leave me. I plan to
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: work in ways that will make even soon. Not a
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: jealous Itachi found himself on the road with Juso Bioa.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: All the while he thought about Arochi Maru and Saske.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: Itachi wasn't stupid. Perhaps this wasn't the best practice, but
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: he had been taught something by someone else. You couldn't
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: always trust the people you made deals with, and a
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: Rochi Maru wasn't trustworthy. But then again, Itachi wasn't trustworthy either.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: You'd be crazy if you thought Itachi was just going
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: to give a Rochi Maru his body. A Rochi Maru
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: was probably planning to take it, perhaps certain that there
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: was no way for Iachi to get out of it,
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: but Iachi would find a way. Even if a Rochi
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Maru didn't double cross him, Itachi would be sure to
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: double cross a rochi maru because the cost he was
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: asking was just too steep and frankly stupid. A rochi
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: maru had been a thorn in Konoha's side for years,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: and had even while younger, been a thorn in Itachi's side.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: He wouldn't mind putting him down, and as he walked
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: with Juuso, he thought about it. I'll need to put
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: them all down, Iachi thought. He hated what he had
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: to do for his clan and what Donzo made him do,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: but he did understand the needfulness of it. If the
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Uchiha clan had caused an uprising, there would have been
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: a world war, and if this group continued to function,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: there would once again be a world war. They were
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: a dangerous group of shanobi and mercenaries whose only goal
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: was to create a war so terrifying that nobody would
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: ever want to fight again. The extremes of these people
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: made the word extremist cult seem like an understatement, and
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: to his eyes, it seemed that while they did seek
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: peace in a way that is at least some way
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: construably admirable, it was also true that they were batcrab
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: crazy and were planning to kill millions, just to make
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: a point that Itachi was certain would not hold any effect.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: He knew what hatred and pain did. Look at the
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: history of the Uchiha clan. They fought for a thousand
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: years with the Senju, enduring pain and hardship, death and ruination,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: all without even remembering why, and they still fought on.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Pain wasn't the end of something in the beginning of
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: something else. It was an endless cycle that kept recirculating
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: over and over and over again. It was insane, and
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: they had to be stopped before they killed so many
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: people for nothing. This mission was one that was easy
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: for them, a mere assassination. On a road. There was
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: a small group of people protecting a palanquin with a
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: dignitary that they'd been hired to get rid of. Frankly,
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: it was an easy mission. Itachi didn't even have to
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: exert himself. He just dealt with the guards as Juso
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: did the deed by himself. Collecting the money. They returned
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: to headquarters, where they delivered the funds to Pain who
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: had it counted and then gave a fair cut to
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: each of them. From there, it Tachi made his way
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: back to Arochi Maru who had news. What did you find,
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: he asked, Arochi Maru looked up from his work. I
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: discovered the secret to your brother's illness, just as I suspected.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: He had a high level of various antibodies and the
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: tissues within his lungs. And what does that mean, Ittachi asked.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: It means that his body is releasing antibodies to kill
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: a disease that doesn't exist. I don't understand. My brother
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: is obviously sick. How can you say his disease doesn't exist.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying your brother isn't ill. I'm saying he
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: isn't sick. Let me rephrase. Your brother's immune system is
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: detecting something in the body that it has determined needs
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: to be attacked. And that thing it's discovered is a
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: natural organ, his lungs. It's treating your brother's lungs like
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: a foreign body, attempting in some ways, to kill it.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: This is causing inflammation, scarring, and the hemorrhaging of these
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: small blood vessels within. It's treating your brother's lungs like
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: they're infected when they're not. In other words, it's what
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: I would consider an autoimmune disorder. His immune system is
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: basically at fault, so how do we help him? Itachi asked,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru thought about it. Well, your brother's illness
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: should be theoretically sol with some cordico steroids to reduce inflammation,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: as well as immunosuppressants to suppress his immune system to
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: help control it. Won't that make him sick? Itachi asked.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: There is risk when going on immunosuppressants. He may find
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: himself getting sicker easier, and may stay sicker longer with
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: worse symptoms. However, such a thing isn't an automatic death sentence.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: We're not eradicating his immune system, just telling it to say,
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: take a chill pill. Itachi nodded in understanding. Arochi Maru continued,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: once his immune system is weakened, I'll be sure to
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: keep him on some antibiotics for certain infections. I'd suggest
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: having him eat nutrient rich foods, as well as insure
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: proper hygiene and crowd control. Doing this should lower the
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: risk of complications. For about three to six months, We'll
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: keep him on these steroids and the like, and then
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: after that we'll begin weaning him off for a year
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: or two, keeping track of how well, his body's responding.
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: We caught it early, and he is very young, so
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: he should be able to bounce back Eventually. He may
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: not need to be on any drugs anymore. Will his
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: illness come back when he gets completely off the drugs,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Iachi asked. A Rochi Maru thought about it before waving
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: his hand in the air. Fifty to fifty, I'd say,
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru said it. Tachi nodded, all right, now
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: it's time to fulfill your end of the bargain, A
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Rochi Maru said, standing up, Itachi laughed, you really think?
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Huh No, not yet. I have no proof that anything
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: you're actually saying is true. For all I know, you
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: plan to tell me my brother will be healed, kill me,
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: and then abandon him, leaving him to die without treatment.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: I've already been double crossed. It won't happen again. You
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: put your failsafe on me. Now I get to make
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: sure you won't betray me. A Rochi Maru sighed and
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: then sat back down again. What do you recommend, he asked.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: Iachi thought, for a moment, you're going to keep us
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: informed on the medication you're giving saske for the next
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: two years. Then when I see he's well and knows
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: how to take care of himself, then I'll let you
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: have my body. You're crazy if you think I'm just
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: going to let you kill me without seeing your work
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: prove itself. A Rochi Maru let out a sigh and
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: then thought about it. Looking around. He then turned his
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: gaze back at it Tachi, and what's to stop me
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: from simply taking your body now? A Rochi Maru asked,
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I already have my cursemark on you. Who's to say
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: that I don't just take over your body now and
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: do whatever I please. You do know you're at my mercy? Correct?
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Itachi scoffed? You plan to double cross me? Then? Guess
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: they were right when they said you're a snake. A
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: Roachi Maru stood, maybe I should just activate that cursemark
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: now bend you to my will. Itachi held up a
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: half ram symbol and almost went down, but through sheer
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: will and determination, he stood strong. Letting off a smile,
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: he spoke, try me now, snake. A Rochi Maru attempted
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: to activate the mark but found it to fail. Fear
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: came over a Rochi maru face as he understood what
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: was happening? Evil sealing technique? You sealed it up? Itachi nodded.
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: Your fail safe turned out to be less safe and
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: more fail huh. It was at about that time that
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: the world seemed to fade around a Rochi Maru. The
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: sky forming overhead in crimson clouds and darkness. The moon
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: shone the shape of Iachi's Mongekyo Sharraghan. Unable to defend himself,
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: a Rochimru was quickly eliminated. As his body lay on
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: the ground, Itachi set it ablaze with a Matarasu to
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: destroy the body and ensure that Arochi Maru never revived again.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: This was not something he hoped to do so early.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: He wished to first see whether what Arochi Maru had
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: said was true, so he began to dig into his
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: files and his databases to find that it was true.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: A Rochi Maru had discovered the way to heal Saske
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: of his illness. Getting the plan for his medication, he
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: found the pharmaceuticals that were required for him to heal
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: his brother. Then he found Saske. How you do in champ?
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: He asked a little. Saske replied, breathing and talking's a
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: little painful, but I'm okay. Iachi smiled and kissed his
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: brother's forehead. The good news is that mister Errochi Maru
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: maybe figured out what's wrong with you. He did, Saske asked.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: He said it was an autoimmune disorder of some sort,
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: and that all would be required to help you was
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: to get you on certain medications for about two years.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: After that, everything should be back to normal. Saske smiled,
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: I'm so happy, Iachi nodded. He then began to administer
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: the first doses as a Rochi Maru's information had asked
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: of them. But it was best to leave this location now.
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't be long before someone showed up and figured
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: out what they'd done. As they left to find somewhere
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: else to stay, Saske spoke, now that I'm better, can
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: we go home now to mom and dad? Iachi stopped.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: He'd been so preoccupied with healing his brother that he
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: never got around to telling him what had happened. He
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: rented out a home in a small town, and there
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: he left. Saske. When will you be back? Saske asked,
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but soon I have some busy to
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: take care of first. There's food in the fridge, and
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: if you need any help, the landlord lives right next door.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: You can ask kim okay Saske nodded. Itachi then left
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: the house, making his way back to the Yukotski hideout.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: He made sure to do it on a day where
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: everyone would be gathered. He rescinded the evil ceiling technique
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: on his shoulder, knowing he would need it. He entered
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: the room. As he stood there, all the others looked
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: at him. Where is a rochi? Maru Payne asked. Itachi
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: didn't answer. His gaze told all what have you done?
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Conan asked. At that moment, Iachi activated his cursemark, which
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: covered his whole body further. He ascended at the second
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: stage seize him. Payin said it was too late, though
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: Itachi set Zetsu ablaze and immediately moved in to kill Juso.
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: The Ninja swordsman leveled the executioner's blade at i Tachi,
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: planning to sever him in two, but the wings on
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: his back puffed him out of the way of the blade.
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: Coming up behind Juso, he put a hand through his back. Kakazu,
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: his partner and Sorcery all sprung into action against Iachi,
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: only for Iachi to form his Susano giant and armored
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: to smash them. Saucery was smashed and left broken like
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: the toy he was. Conan attempted to use her exploding
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: tags to destroy Itachi and his Susano, and to her credit,
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: it did work. But what she hadn't expected was that
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: this was not the real Itachi. Coming from the door again,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Itachi utilized Amatarasu to set her and all of her
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: paper ablaze. The sight of Conan burning to death was
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: enough to get Pain finally involved. Utilizing Almighty Push, he
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: sent Itachi through the wall and out of the base.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: As Iachi flew he landed, he knew Kakazu and his
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: partner were still alive, but that didn't matter. All he
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: had to do was kill Pain, and their toxic dream
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: would be at an end, or so he thought. Appearing
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: from behind him, the man who had once been Iachi's
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: aid during the massacre appeared. Tisk Tisk tisk, And after
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: everything we've done for you, you would do this. I
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: guess your name makes sense, You weasele. Loyalty is just
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: something you can't under stand. Iachi turned around and fired
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: Amatarasu at the man, only for him to catch it
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: in his Kammowe dimension. Such attacks will not work on me, Iachi,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: Obito said, his mongek yo sharinggan burning. Pain stood there.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: I would be grateful if you'd help me, he told
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: the masked man. Obito looked to Pain and then back
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: at I. Tachi. M No, I think I'll watch. I
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: wish to see if I was correct to choose you
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: or not, he said, choose, Iachi questioned. Suddenly, the masked
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: man disappeared. Pain seemed disappointed, but said not a word
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: as Toby disappeared. Fine, fine, I will destroy you myself,
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: he said, summoning the other five members of his group,
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: the Six Paths of Pain. Iachi stood there, only now
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: realizing that Pain had comrades. He didn't truly understand what
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: he was looking at and merely assumed that they were
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: six Rinegon users. What he was looking at made no
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: difference to him, though, as he prepared to kill them all.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: If anything, this might make it a little more fair
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: for Pain. As the six Paths began to rush toward him,
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: he activated his Susano once again, only for the animal
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: path to summon its animals, which consisted of a large
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: three headed dog, a bird, and a centipede. Itachi saw
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: them coming. The dog he decided to take out immediately.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: With a matarasu and the centipede, he stabbed the blade
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: of his susano. The drill beaked bird would fly into him,
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: causing damage to his construct. Itachi would stumble about as
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: he was struck. It was then that he noticed his
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: susana was growing weaker. It was being absorbed by the Predopath.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: Itachi looked over, saw it absorbing a susano and let
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: go of his susana before moving in for hand to
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: hand combat. Pulling his tonto, he danced around the predapath
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: before bisecting it. The Divapath once again attempted to push
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: Itachi away, but this time Iachi dug into the ground
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: with his blade and hung on. He pulled the kunai
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: out and began to draw closer. As Payne tried to
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: hit him with another almighty push. Itachi began to scale
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: what seemed to be a horizontal wall until till he
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: was close enough to sweep Diva's legs. Before he could
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: finish off Diva, the animal path summoned its bird to
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: pull Itachi into the air. As I Tachi was dragged
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: through the sky, he utilized Amatarasu on the bird to
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: evaporate it. As it dropped him. He dove straight at
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: the animal path, eliminating it. At about this time, the
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: Ashura Path was firing at him with missiles. Itachi bounced back.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: He then saw the Naraka Path putting the body of
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: the Preda into the King of Hell. Before the Preda
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: came out completely healed, Itachi knew he couldn't have that,
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: so he ignored the Ashura and rushed the Naraka and
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: Preda once again. You were better off dead, he shouted
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: as he beheaded both and one fell swoop. Only three
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: paths remained, the Diva, human, and Ashura Path. The human
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: was the closest to him, so he moved to deal
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: with it first. Its powers were not enough to do
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: much in the face of Itachi, and so Itachi put
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: it down fairly easily, but getting close to the Ashura
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: Path seemed next to impossible. It possessed six arms, and
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: each one one was a weapon. Taijutsu was out of
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: the question, and even as susano might not work, so
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: the best thing he could think to do was hit
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: it from a distance, and so he cast Ashura under genjutsu.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: As it fired a new volley of missiles at him,
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: scrambling its ability to tell where its missiles were going,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: he convinced it to turn the projectiles back on itself,
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: or at least he would have if the Diva Path
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: beside it hadn't noticed he was under genjutsu. How Diva
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: understood this, Iachi wasn't sure. Itachi was knocked back by
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: the missiles. Itachi resorted to Amatarasu to take it out.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: The flesh burned away to show metallic robotic inerts. What
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: kind of warrior are you? He questioned the Ashura path.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: Putting his hands together, he used the shadow clone technique,
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: and to ensure that pain himself didn't interfere, he created
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: a few more for him to fight. The Iachis drew
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: closer to Ashura and began to fight. Eventually, they overwhelmed
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: it and began to sever limbs from its body. With
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: it severely weakened, Iachi tried his Lussano again, smashing the
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: Path to oblivion. All that was left now was Diva,
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: which was defeating each shadow clone as they came in,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: Itachi himself attempted to draw closer. Pain generated a set
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: of chakra rods to use as weapons against Iachi. Their
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: battle went back and forth. Whether almighty push or universal pull,
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: neither technique worked against Iachi, so Diva made the decision
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: to use its last resort, which was the Chibaku tense.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: Itachi ended up getting pulled into the center of a
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: large mass of stones, and as it rose up into
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: the air, Pain began to believe that he had attained victory,
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: but this could not be further from the truth. A
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: moment after the Chibaku tense settled, Iachi suddenly broke out
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: of it with the susano. As the stone crashed down
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: to the ground, Itachi fell with his susano, smashing Diva
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: entirely ending him. Itachi further utilized Amatarasu to burn each
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: of the bodies until there was nothing left, erasing any
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: trace of their existence. He had no clue the full
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: extent of the powers of the rinegon, and he didn't
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: want to figure it out, especially if it could allow
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: the user to revive from almost nothing. The battle was over,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: but what i Tachi wasn't aware of was that there
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: was another path, the original path, the outer path Nagato himself.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: Nagato realized he couldn't beat Itachi as he was, but
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: calmed down as Iachi did not know he was alive
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: and as such could not know to kill him. He
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: would have his revenge one day, or so, he thought.
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: That was when Obito entered the room. I guess you
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: never were more than just a holder of them, he said.
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: What Nagato said merely an interim sage. Those eyes never
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: were yours, just gifts from me. But now I'm taking
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: them back, he said, and without a moment to lose,
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: Obito was on top of Nagato's walker, where he put
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: a blade through his chest and pulled the rinegon from
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: their sockets. Obito was rather impressed by Itachi, but knew
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: that he'd be at Airasi in the future. He needed
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: to at this moment put a stop to him. The
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: rinegon could wait, and so once again Obito approached i Tachi.
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: That was a fair battle you had. I'm impressed. However,
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: he was not the heart of the Katski you trader.
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: That would be me, and I'm a whole other ballgame
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: from pain, he said. Iachi stood there catching his breath.
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: Holding up a kunai, he threw it at Obito, only
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: for Obito to absorb it. Pathetic, Obito said, you're Amatarasu
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: didn't work. What makes you think a kunai would. Iachi
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: didn't speak. Maybe you weren't as smart as I thought
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: you were, Obito said. He then pulled out a blade
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: and proceeded to attack i Tachi. Iahi tried to dodge
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: the attacks as best he could, knowing that the weapon
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: could phase through his own blade. He tried to carve
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: through Obito, only for nothing to happen. But Obito had
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: underestimated Iachi. Iachi now knew what his secret was. So
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: your technique is dimensional, Iachi said, to avoid it blows,
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: you phase your body through that dimension. Your sharing gun
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: generates perceptive Obito said, and sadly, since only I have
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: access to that dimension, you have no chance to defeat me.
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: Itachi stood there and readied his next attack. He chose
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: his target. He rushed through on the other side of
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: the Kamowi dimensions wall. Though that kunai Iachi had thrown
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: had proven itself to be a clone of Iachi in disguise.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: It was through this that Iachi knew the truth. The
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: clone waited there for Iachi's attack. As Iachi dodged the
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: next blow from Obito, he went to sever Obito's head.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: Obito phased through the blade. As he stood there, he
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: laughed pathetic. Suddenly his head rolled from his shoulders to
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: the ground. With the head now severed, the body was vulnerable,
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: and creepily enough, it was still moving looking for its head.
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: Itachi incinerated it with the matarasu before he could find it.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: Coming to the head, he looked down on it. You
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: clever boy, the head of Obito, said, you sent a
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: into my kamowie realm. Maybe you are smarter than I
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: gave you credit for your toxic dream ends with you,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: Itachi said. Obito laughed a bit, perhaps so, but know
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: this for a fact. Wherever there's war, there will be pain,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: and wherever there's pain, there will be me. Itachi scoffed,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: and then hit the head with a matarasu. He was
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: unsure whether it was his own amatarasu or his clones,
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: but the head burst into flame all the same and
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: burned to nothing. In the distance. Ka Kazu and his
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: partner watched this happen. Man he killed lord pain. Ka
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: Kazu's partner said, Ka Kazoo nodded, Oh, well, it was
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: kind of a stupid dream anyway, the sodap Shenobi said,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: it's best we stay out of his way. Together, the
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: two escaped. Itachi would later make his way back to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: his home, where he found Saske. The boy looked up
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: at Iachi. He smiled, glad to be better, but Saske,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: all the same, had no clue the pain that would
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: await him. Itachi knew that that time was now, and
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: so he began to explaining everything to his little brother,
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: the whole story that he had missed to this point.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: Saske took it hard, and for quite a long time,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: it seemed as though Saske hated i Tachi. In some cases,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: he attempted to stop taking his medication, but Iachi spoke
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: to him, You're right, Saske. I made a mistake. I
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: trusted someone who said they had a cure, and they
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: convinced me to do something very bad, and I'm sorry.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: I know that it doesn't mean much at this point,
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: but the truth is the uchiha we're going to take over.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: If nothing happened, the whole world would have gone to war.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: Why didn't you talk to Dad about it, he asked.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: I did on many occasions, but he never wanted to help.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: He resigned himself to a revolution that would have created
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: a world war. Dad was willing to risk a world
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: war just for his clan, and you were willing to
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: risk your clan for me, Saske said. Iachi thought about it.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: You know what, You're right. I am just like him,
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: but I still did it because I love you. He
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: then pulled out a kunai and gave it to Saske.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: If you truly hate me for what I've done, then
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: I understand. Take the kunai and kill me. But if
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: you do promise me one thing. What's that? Saske asked,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: Promise me you'll take your medicine. Saske readied to kill
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: his brother, but tears flooded his eyes. He dropped the
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: blade and fell into his brother's arms. Itachi held him there.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: What he had done was horrible, but he did it
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: for Saske, and maybe he was wrong to do it,
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: but he couldn't go back now. All he could do
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: was move forward. He would give Saske the best life
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: he could. Itachi was the only family Saske had left,
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: and so he needed to be dependable. The world would
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: settle and peace would continue, but Iachi knew it was
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: only a matter of time. The words Obito said were chilling,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: and Iachi knew that it would be true. War created monsters,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: and monsters created more war. It was an endless cycle,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: but he hoped one day it wouldn't have to be.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: He hoped one day, true lasting peace would come, and
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: when it did, he hoped he would be there to
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: see it. And that's the end of our story. I
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: hope you enjoyed it. If you did, be sure to
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: let us know in the comments what your favorite part was.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: As for Soaske's illness, I wasn't quite sure what it was.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: Kishimoto never explained it, but a lot of fan theories
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: say it was MPa, also known as microscopic polyangitis, and well,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: I never named it here, I assumed it was. That
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: being said, a lot of the doctor's stuff a Rochimaro
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: talked about was just stuff I looked up on the internet.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: So don't take anything we said here as medical advice.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: This was all just a story for funzies. And if
• 1:03:34
