I haven't been able to save many a comrade. Which is why I keep telling myself this time, I will protect them.

I'm going to head to the battlefield. I will not let the village and Itachi become nothing!
[To Obito] I'm saying that I can endure any amount of pain if it involves my comrades! I mean that I don't want to give them up! It might seem selfish of me, but still it's even more painful for me not to have my comrades in here!
[to Kakashi] Look at me! There's nothing in my heart! I don't feel pain any longer! There's no need to feel guilty, Kakashi. This hole was opened up by this hellish world.
The hole in one's heart gets filled by others around you. But people won't flock to someone who abandons the memory of his friends and gives up on the world just because things don't go the way he wants them to.
[to Sakura] Are you Naruto's girlfriend?
Huh? Um... Yeah, yeah, I suppose you could say that.
You shut your trap! [headbutts Naruto] Don't waste your energy talking.
You're supposed to be healing me, not hurting me even more!
Oh I'll just heal the extra damage too.
She kinda reminds me a bit of Kushina.
A whole lot has happened, but I decided to protect the Hidden Leaf Village now. Then after, I will... become Hokage. [everyone is shocked]
All right! Team 7 is finally back in action once again! Sakura, Sasuke, let's go!
Right!
Yeah!
You're going to lecture me now? Bit late for that sensei, don't you think? You're always too late when it matters most. [flashes back to his tragic past] I'm glad my teacher was a Hokage. That made it easy to give up on becoming Hokage. [flashes back to attacking the Hidden Leaf]
If only I had realized that man was Obito, I may have been able to stop him. And then I may have been able to prevent Kushina's death. I may not have had to make Naruto into the Nine Tails jinchūriki. If only I had noticed that he was Obito. Perhaps the Shinobi world wouldn't have ended up like this either.
You were my teacher and yet you didn't realize it was me. That's just who you are fundamentally. How pathetic. You died a hero Hokage, but now exposed as a disgrace in front of your living son. That's right, a Hokage is a pitiable existence compared to what I am now.
Wrong, you're Obito Uchiha. When I touched your chakra earlier I saw into your past. Our personal histories and our dream of being Hokage are the same, almost exactly the same. Neither of us knew your parents, and we both lost someone precious to us. Which is why you tried to scare me by saying solitude is my worst nightmare. At the start you wanted to be acknowledged and praised by others too. I bet that's why you wanted to become Hokage. I mean if you're the same as me. But look at you now! You've made all shinobi your enemy and spout nonsense that it's for the world's sake when really you're only doing it for yourself! Not one person, not even those precious to you, would ever acknowledge this current dream of yours. You used to have the same dream as me, but now you're the opposite of a Hokage! It's cuz you're just like me that-
No it's because of that. That's why I wanted to see you despair about this world. Or I suppose I wanted to feel again for myself that the path that I've chosen for myself is indeed not a mistake. When I was battling against you, you made me recall myself from my youth. That's why I wanted to test you, to see when you would fall into despair and reject your feelings and past.
It's because we're so alike that you really annoy me! Get it?! You're just abandoning everything and running away!
No, what I'm doing is no different than a Hokage's actions. More in fact, for I can truly bring about peace.
Are you serious right now? You really truly believe that?
[flashes back to telling Rin his dream of being Hokage] Yes I do. There's no need to voluntarily walk a rugged path whose destination isn't even clear and step over comrades' corpses. So anyone who's sensible would choose a shortcut with a fixed outcome. That's right, the goal a Hokage should seek is to create world peace.
You don't know what you're talking about. What I want to know isn't the shortcut or the easy path, but how to navigate the rugged one!
Would you still say the same thing even if both those paths led to?
But in the beginning, how can you tell which one is the rugged path? I mean, you never really know until someone starts walking down it. A Hokage is one who walks ahead of everyone else, enduring their own pain! So that's why a Hokage never walks over his comrades' corpses. There's no shortcut to becoming Hokage and no way out for the one who becomes Hokage, correct?
[fusing onto Obito's body] I am Madara's will incarnate. I will eliminate anyone who gets in Madara's way.
I taught you to use the darkness in people's hearts to manipulate them, didn't I Obito? If there's no darkness, you create it.
[After finishing the Infinite Tsukuyomi] It's time you woke up. It's all over.
[Madara is impaled from behind by Black Zetsu for a literal backstab]
Wrong, Madara. You are not the savior, nor is this is the end of things.
I can't move!
What's going on?
How can you say that you, unlike Obito, are able to completely take advantage of others? Isn't it presumptuous to think that you alone are different? My dear Madara, you have also been caught inside a phantom dream, a dream that I concocted.
Inside a dream? What are you talking about, Black Zetsu? I was the one that created you in the first place. You are nothing more than my will made incarnate!
Wrong again. My will is... Kaguya's.
Hashirama, where did I go wrong?
May the infinite moonlight guide you. Use my body. Become one again!
