The reason why Itachi couldn't bring himself to kill me was because my life was more precious to him than the village itself was. I have similar feelings that Itachi's life is more precious than the Hidden Leaf. That's all. They shunned the Uchiha clan! They ordered my brother to kill his own parents! It wasn't just the elders who chased Itachi to his death, but all those in the Hidden Leaf who abide by the Senju! To me they are all the scum of the Earth! They are all objects of my vengeance! If you want to ridicule me as a brat swayed by his emotions, go ahead. To accept and adopt Itachi's intentions would be childish. The foolish sputtering of those who don't know hatred. If anyone who criticizes my way of life were to come forward, I'd turn around and kill every single one of their loved ones so that they too could grasp what it's like to experience this hatred of mine.
[wiping his tears] All I ever wanted was for him to keep watching over me. I wanted him to see me become Hokage. But I only showed him the worst most uncool side of me. I'm still so-
Listen to me. All Jiraiya ever had was praise for you. He kept saying that you were like his own grandchild. It's true. He had faith that you were the man who'd inherited his will. And he truly believed that you would be a wonderful Hokage one day. He's still watching and he always will be, even this very minute. No matter where he is I know that he wouldn't be happy to see you this upset and sad. Naruto, just go back to being the you that he praised so highly. Cheer up, for you are the distinguished student as one of the legendary Sannin, acknowledged by the great Jiraiya himself.
[To Naruto] Eventually you'll be the one paying for the ramen and someone will be calling you Naruto sensei. After all we can't stay brats forever, not if we want to be cool Shinobi. Like the type of Shinobi that Asuma and Jiraiya both were.
I've always wanted to do something about all this hatred, I'm just not quite sure how to go about it yet. But I truly believe that eventually the day will come when all people will understand one another and live in harmony!
Only using substitution and shadow clones until he determines the nature and abilities of his enemy. He hasn't changed a bit since the last time we teamed up. Skilled as always.
Run Choji! [he does] With the chakra I have left it's impossible to destroy his entire body. And if I use that Jutsu one more time, I'll exhaust all my stamina and chakra. Without a doubt, I'll... This information must get to those who still live. Right now this is the only way to save the Hidden Leaf Village! [uses Kamui]
[dying] Well it seems that this is it for me too, Obito, Rin. Obito, this is as far as it goes. Me being your eyes. I couldn't even protect Rin. I broke my promise to you. Please forgive me, Obito, Rin, Sensei. I guess I'll be joining you now.
However all is meaningless before overwhelming power. You great nations proved that over the years. You all think of yourselves as the main forces of this world and push death out of your thoughts. Lulled by peace, you become shallow. If you kill you shall be killed. Hatred is what connects this cause and effect.
[To Pain] Create peace? Justice? Are you kidding? Give me a break! You killed my master, my sensei, hurt my friends, destroyed my village! After all of the horrible things that you've done, don't you dare talk about peace and justice!
I see. That is noble of you. However, what about my family? My friends? My village? They suffered the same fate as this village at the hands of you Hidden Leaf ninja. How is it fair to let only you people preach about peace and justice?
I'm here because I want to be. This time I'm going to save you, Naruto. I used to be such a crybaby, always giving up before I even had a chance to start. I almost took the wrong path so many times I lost count. But you helped me find my way and take the correct path, Naruto. I always chased after you, wanting to catch up, wanting to walk together with you forever. You changed who I am, Naruto. Your smiling face saved me, Naruto. That's why I'm not afraid to die here if it means I can protect you, because... I love you. I always will.
