"There's something else besides having the eyes to tame the Nine-Tails?" Itachi: "Yes. And that remaining secret is the most important one." Sasuke: "Important secret? What is it?" Itachi: "I'll tell you a little story. One dealing with the history of the Uchiha." "A certain Uchiha Madara once had a brother of his own...a younger brother. When they were young, they competed against each other, both growing in power." "As a result they awakened to the Sharingan. They became known as special brothers even within the clan." "By seeking growth via competition against one another, the brothers finally attained the Mangekyou Sharingan." "That was from the beginning of the Uchiha clan. So with their powerful eyes, the brothers took control of the clan."" The older brother, Madara, became leader. However, strange abnormalities began to grow upon his otherwise healthy normal body. "I said it before...these eyes are special. The more you use them, the closer the complete darkness approaches which seals it away." "This is the end of the road for the Mangekyou Sharingan. In exchange for that great power...you will shut your 'eyes'...parting with the light." "Madara exhausted all means for the sake of returning his light, but nothing was effective." "He despaired. And so, possessed by the Mangekyou, Madara sought the light..."
Madara: "Forgive me."
Younger brother: "Gyaaaaa!!" Itachi: "He plucked his brother's eyes." "Madara gained a new light. And never again was his light ever shut away." "The eternal Mangekyou Sharingan! Being the new host for his brother's eyes is what is said to give him a new light." "And so, whether it was just that or not, it caused a change. A unique doujutsu was born from those eyes." "This is all provided that the exchange of eyes would not be done outside the clan. And by this method, no one would know how to acquire this new power." "After that, a reality of countless victims piled up over the course of this history... That is the remaining secret of these eyes." "Having those powers, Madara brought all the shinobi clans, one by one, to heel.* And so he was called the strongest of all shinobi." "Joining hands with the Mori no Senju clan (or can be read as the "Senju clan of the forest"), a new establishment was founded. It was that establishment that became Konohagakure." "Afterwards, Madara met with the leader of the Senju clan who would later become the Shodai Hokage, and with whom which he had a confrontation over matters of village policy. The conflict over the right of leadership." "Though defeated, Madara continues on even now along with the power that lies in his eyes." "The shadow of his newly organized "Akatsuki" does its part to hide his visage." "It goes without question that the attack by Kyuubi upon Konoha that 16 years ago was caused by none other than Madara. It was prevented regrettably by the Yondaime." Sasuke: ! Itachi: "Madara as he is right now is a failure. He isn't the one who will attain the heights of the Uchiha. The one who is getting closer of attaining that true height, of surpassing that man, Madara...is me. And it's now! I finally will be able to get the power of surpassing Madara!" Itachi: "Sasukee! You are my new light!"
Sasuke: ! Itachi: "You are my spare! The Uchiha clan originally had friends kill one another for the Mangekyou Sharingan-" "To attain the eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, they had brothers kill each other. And by doing so they stained their hands with blood, continuing to display their power." "And so, you too are enveloped by this blood-stained destiny, from the very time you were born within the clan!" "Now come, brother! Once I kill you, I will liberate the clan from its destiny and attain true change!" "I will drop my limits and release myself from my "capacity"*!" ~Sasuke flashback so that you and I can continue existing together." Itachi: "You continued hoping to surpass me. That's why I let you live...for my sake." Itachi: "We are each other's spares! That is what binds us as brothers of the Uchiha!" Itachi: "Seems you were able to see enough of my true self." Sasuke: "So it was all for this..." ~Sasuke flashback Sasuke: "Name: Uchiha Sasuke. Lots of things I don't like, and I don't really like anything." "And I have no intention leaving the word as "dreams". I have ambitions. The resurrection of my clan, and...-" "...to kill a certain man." Sasuke: "All or nothing...this is it." End *Means that it was under Madara's control **Itachi used the word "onore" which can refer to either Itachi or Sasuke. I believe it's referring to Itachi though.
