You see Yahiko's image when you look at me? You really are his former teacher. But Yahiko's been dead for quite some time. All that remains is Pain.

In the shinobi world it's not how you live but how you die. A shinobi's life is not measured by how they live, but rather it's measured by what they managed to accomplish before their death. Looking back, my life has really been full of nothing but failure. Continually rejected by Tsunade, unable to stop my friend, and unable to protect either my student or my mentor. Compared to the great deeds of the Hokage, my actions are trifling, insignificant things indeed. I wish I could have died like each of the Hokage. A tale is only as good as its final turn of events, the plot twist. And mistakes are an important part of the plot too. I lived my entire life always believing that the lessons I've learned are what honed me. I swore that I would accomplish a deed so great it would obliterate all my failures. I'd die a splendid shinobi.
Naruto, you are the child of prophecy. I'm sure of it now. I leave the rest to you!
[drowns Jiraiya] That frog, the frog got away.
[last words] The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant. Well now it'll end a bit better I hope. The final chapter, I'll call it: frog at the bottom of the well drifts off into the great ocean. Just barely glorious, but glorious indeed. Now, I suppose it's about time I put down my pen. Oh that's right. What should I name the sequel? I wonder... Let's see... The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki. Yes, that has a nice ring to it.
Let us make sure to extol our former teacher. By the way you can come out now.
That fight sure took you a while.
His opponent was Jiraiya after all.
How much can you see with those Sharingan of yours?
How much can I see with these? What I'm seeing right now Itachi, is you dead at my feet.
You see me dead do you? Well then... [Itachi appears behind him] Go on, make it happen.
I'm always going to be there for you, even if it's only as an obstacle for you to overcome, even if you do hate me. That's what big brothers are for.
Madara Uchiha!
One of the Founders of the Hidden Leaf Village, the man who first awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan.
[Remembering the night the Uchiha clan was killed] I was so young. I thought it was all merely an illusion. I desperately wanted to believe I was just trapped in a horrible genjutsu. But there was no mistake! I was trapped in reality! My eyes are not the same as they once were. My Sharingan can see through genjutsu!
You speak with such confidence as you always do. Well for now I'm going to take your word for it.
I'm done playing with your parlor tricks.
Confidence is fine. But Sasuke, it appears you still do not possess the same eyes as I do. So you just couldn't do it. Couldn't kill your best friend. And you dared to come here to face me with such weak resolve?
All right, then just hurry it up and try to kill me with your Mangekyo Sharingan. Or am I too strong now for you to test your capabilities against mine?
Such confidence.
Neither of them have budged for the longest time.
They're feeling each other out with their genjutsu.
The Mangekyo Sharingan are very special eyes. The moment they awaken, they progress toward darkness. And the more they're used, the faster they're sealed.
Activating the Mangekyo Sharingan always required an Uchiha to take down a friend. Parents and siblings killed each other to obtain eternal visual prowess. We're both from a tainted bloodline that advanced its strength this way throughout the ages! And from the day you were born into our clan you have been unavoidably entwined with this blood soaked fate! Now come my little brother! I shall kill you to obtain my true transformation and finally be free from our clan's fate!
Ah but the ordinary Sharingan is still a weapon and a weapon can be either strong or weak, depending on the ability of the person who is wielding it. Someone's shuriken might be taken down by a mere pebble if it's thrown by a master. The difference is in the power, the variation of strength. It means that Sasuke's skills far exceed Itachi's expectations.
Like I told you, no matter how much you use your eyes, with all of my hatred, I'll turn fantasy into reality.
Turn fantasy into reality huh? Some strong words. And let me throw them back at you now. Just a few minutes ago you saw your eyes gouged out during the Tsukuyomi. Well allow me to make that a reality.
You'll be gone with the thunder clap. [uses Kirin on Itachi]
Such power.
So did Itachi die?
It's done.
[alive] Is this the death you had imagined for me then?
Damn you! [activates his cursed seal]
If I hadn't had this I'd be dead. [activates Susanoo]
What's that?
You really have gotten stronger Sasuke. Now it's my turn. I'm going to reveal to you my final trump card, the Susanoo.
The Susanoo?
Yes the one other jutsu. Once the Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu were awakened, it also took root in this eye of mine. Sasuke, is that it for your Jutsu then? If you have anything else up your sleeve, now's your last chance to play it. The real battle's just beginning.
[on Orochimaru] Gross fellow as always, regurgitating something out of his mouth like that.
Slithering around like the snake he is.
And now your eyes are mine. I'll take my time retrieving them. [coughs blood]
Whoa what the hell?
Something's wrong with him.
[Sasuke attacks Itachi with no effect]
That Susanoo jutsu of his, it's simply repelling every single one of Sasuke's attacks.
There's no mistaking it. It's another spirit weapon. It's called the Yata mirror and it's said to deflect all things. With that and the Totsuka blade for attacking, Itachi's invincible.
They're my eyes. They're mine.
[Sasuke is defeated, but instead of killing him, a smiling Itachi pokes his forehead before dying]
No way. Is Itachi really dead?
Sasuke triumphed in the battle. Itachi Uchiha is dead. [everyone is shocked]
TTobi
What? I don't believe it! Kidding. It's just as I expected.
What? Sasuke killed him? He killed Itachi?
Sasuke is down right now too. So what's next? I think he's in pretty bad shape.
Hey, you up there! Spiky aloe guy! Tell us where Sasuke is right now!
What do you mean by aloe?
Ignore him.
[Kakashi looks at Tobi and sees his Sharingan]
TTobi
We're just going to have to finish this some other time.
TTobi
You think you know all about your older brother but you know nothing.
If you continue spouting such nonsense and lies, I'll kill you right here.
TTobi
You're not making this easy. I suppose that's only natural hearing this from a complete stranger, but what I'm telling you is the truth. Itachi did mention it, didn't he? That he wasn't alone that night, that he had an accomplice. I am Madara Uchiha. I know everything there is to know about Itachi. I suppose Itachi died without realizing that.
Shut up! None of that matters anymore! Just get out of my sight, you hear me?
TTobi
No, you listen. You need to hear this. It's your obligation. It's about the life of your brother who risked everything for the sake of the shinobi world, the Hidden Leaf Village, and most of all for you, his little brother. You will know how Itachi Uchiha lived.
