[00:08] ---
    Protect?
[00:11] ---
    Did you say protect?!
[00:15] ---
    You've got to be kidding!
[00:18] ---
    I'll say it once more...
[00:20] ---
    You think you know about your brother,
    but you know nothing.
[00:25] ---
    If you continue speaking
    such nonsense, I'll kill you!
[00:30] ---
    You're not making this easy, are you?
[00:34] ---
    I suppose that's natural though...
[00:36] ---
    Suddenly being told such a story
    by a stranger like me.
[00:40] ---
    But what I tell you is the truth.
[00:45] ---
    Itachi did mention it, did he not?
    About his accomplice that night.
[00:53] ---
    I am that Madara Uchiha.
[01:00] ---
    I know everything about Itachi.
[01:02] ---
    I suppose Itachi died
    without realizing that.
[01:08] ---
    Shut up!
    Such things don't matter anymore!
[01:11] ---
    Just get out of my sight!
[01:13] ---
    No, you will listen.
    You need to hear this.
[01:18] ---
    It's your obligation!
[01:22] ---
    For the sake of the ninja world...
[01:24] ---
    For the sake of
    the Hidden Leaf Village...
[01:26] ---
    And for your sake...
[01:28] ---
    Your brother risked everything.
    You will know how Itachi Uchiha lived!
[01:38] ---
    Do you know why?
[01:41] ---
    Why Itachi implanted Amaterasu
    into your eye?
[01:47] ---
    Itachi was determined to make sure
    that you and I would not meet.
[01:51] ---
    You will understand why,
    as well as everything else,
[01:54] ---
    when you hear me out.
[01:59] ---
    Those who knew the truth about Itachi
[02:01] ---
    were Danzo of the Hidden Leaf,
    the Third Hokage,
[02:04] ---
    and his advisors Homura and Koharu.
    Just those four.
[02:10] ---
    The Third Hokage died...
    and now, there are only three aging folk.
[02:16] ---
    Still, those three will probably
    never reveal the abominable truth.
[02:22] ---
    The truth about Itachi will fade
    into darkness forever.
[02:25] ---
    And that is what Itachi wished.
[02:33] ---
    However, I know the truth
    about Itachi too.
[02:37] ---
    As I said earlier...
    Itachi died without realizing that.
[02:44] ---
    However, he wanted to
    make doubly sure.
[02:46] ---
    It seems Itachi did not trust me.
[02:50] ---
    So just in case I did know the truth,
[02:53] ---
    he planned to silence me
    with the Amaterasu.
[02:57] ---
    He probably anticipated I would show
    my Sharingan
[03:01] ---
    in order to speak to you.
[03:04] ---
    What is this?
[03:09] ---
    What is this guy saying?
[03:13] ---
    Protect me?
[03:16] ---
    Protect?!
[03:18] ---
    The truth?
[03:24] ---
    Think back.
[03:29] ---
    Think carefully and
    remember about Itachi.
[03:45] ---
    About your kind brother.
[04:03] ---
    What's wrong?
[04:08] ---
    *This is it, right?
    The place where Father works.
[04:12] ---
    *This is the headquarters of
    the Hidden Leaf Police Force.
[04:15] ---
    I've always been curious.
[04:18] ---
    *Why is the Uchiha crest
    on the police force logo?
[04:22] ---
    What? You noticed that?
[04:24] ---
    Who wouldn't?
[04:27] ---
    Well...let's see...
[04:30] ---
    *Simply put, it seems our ancestors formed
    and organized this police force.
[04:37] ---
    *And so, they used our family crest
    as the symbol of this organization.
[04:43] ---
    From ages past,
[04:45] ---
    *our clan has been entrusted
    with the safety of the village.
[04:48] ---
    *The Uchiha crest reflects
    the pride of our clan.
[04:54] ---
    While its numbers have dwindled,
[04:58] ---
    *even today, nearly everyone in
    the clan serves on Squad One
[05:01] ---
    *and is dedicated to preserving
    the peace and safety of the village.
[05:05] ---
    *After all, only exceptional ninja are capable
    of preventing crimes that ninja commit.
[05:12] ---
    Father is great, after all!
[05:15] ---
    Are you going to work here too?
[05:17] ---
    I wonder about that...
[05:20] ---
    You should!
[05:25] ---
    No, he...
[05:27] ---
    He tried to kill me!
[05:30] ---
    He tried to take my eyes...
[05:37] ---
    Who would do such a thing?!
[05:41] ---
    Foolish little brother...
[05:43] ---
    Mangekyo Sharingan!
[06:01] ---
    Calm down!
[06:04] ---
    Breathe slowly.
[06:13] ---
    Don't touch me!
[06:24] ---
    Even if you do hate me...
[06:27] ---
    That's what big brothers are for.
[06:34] ---
    Sorry, Sasuke... Another time.
[08:24] ---
    Fate
    
    

[08:36] ---
    You're awake...
[08:39] ---
    Sorry, but I took the liberty
    of tying you up.
[08:41] ---
    Since you weren't gonna stay still
    and listen to me.
[08:50] ---
    He... Itachi was my enemy.
[08:54] ---
    He killed our parents...
    He killed everyone in the clan.
[08:59] ---
    He was a Rogue Ninja...
    A member of the Akatsuki...
[09:04] ---
    He was despicable.
[09:07] ---
    He was my target.
[09:10] ---
    It's true...
[09:11] ---
    that he annihilated
    the Uchiha clan that night.
[09:15] ---
    And he deserted the Hidden Leaf.
[09:18] ---
    Then...
[09:20] ---
    And that is what he was ordered
    to do by the Hidden Leaf.
[09:27] ---
    That is the beginning of
    the truth about Itachi.
[09:31] ---
    It was his mission?
[09:33] ---
    Yes.
[09:35] ---
    That night,
[09:36] ---
    Itachi killed his personal feelings
    and fulfilled his mission.
[09:44] ---
    It seems you've calmed down a bit.
[09:47] ---
    What are you talking about?!
[09:50] ---
    In order to talk about Itachi,
[09:52] ---
    I must take you back to the early days
    when Hidden Leaf Village was founded.
[09:58] ---
    Itachi sacrificed himself.
[10:01] ---
    This is fate that has continued
    since ages past.
[10:04] ---
    He was sacrificed for it.
[10:07] ---
    Sacrifice?
[10:08] ---
    That's correct.
[10:10] ---
    A huge problem rooted since the time
    Hidden Leaf Village was founded.
[10:16] ---
    That is what determined Itachi's life.
[10:22] ---
    It's a long story,
    but everything I tell you is the truth.
[10:28] ---
    On what basis should I believe you?
[10:31] ---
    You're untrustworthy.
[10:33] ---
    There's nothing I can show you
    as proof.
[10:36] ---
    And it's up to you whether
    you believe me or not.
[10:40] ---
    But you will hear me out until I finish.
[10:56] ---
    Fine... So talk.
[11:01] ---
    It all started more
    than 80 years ago.
[11:10] ---
    The world was in turmoil.
    It was the age of war.
[11:15] ---
    Nations battled for power and
    to increase their territories.
[11:21] ---
    During this age of war,
[11:23] ---
    ninjas consisted of individual clans
    serving as armed units.
[11:27] ---
    They were hired by various nations
    to participate in the fighting.
[11:33] ---
    And among the many ninja clans,
    two were feared as the strongest.
[11:42] ---
    One was us, the Uchiha clan.
[11:45] ---
    And the other was known
    as the Forest's Senju Clan.
[11:49] ---
    We of the Uchiha clan possessed
    exceptional chakra and the Sharingan.
[11:53] ---
    Excelling in all types of warfare,
    we became known as a battle clan.
[12:00] ---
    And I was born into the Uchiha clan,
[12:03] ---
    possessing chakra that
    was especially powerful.
[12:07] ---
    Perhaps the fact that I've lived
    this long is proof of that.
[12:12] ---
    Back in those days,
    all I did was battle.
[12:15] ---
    In an age defined by power,
[12:17] ---
    I sought to become ever stronger
[12:21] ---
    and killed my friends and
    even my younger brother.
[12:24] ---
    Why you...!
[12:26] ---
    As a result, I came into possession
    of the perfect Mangekyo Sharingan,
[12:30] ---
    and became the leader of the Uchiha.
[12:33] ---
    And using that power,
    I fought the Senju clan countless times.
[12:39] ---
    It was inevitable that I face Hashirama,
    the leader of the Senju clan.
[12:46] ---
    "Wood Style" Hashirama Senju,
    the future first Hokage.
[12:51] ---
    The one who stood at
    the top of the ninja world...
[12:53] ---
    And the one I respected most.
[13:03] ---
    The Senju clan, led by Hashirama
    who became the First Hokage,
[13:08] ---
    was feared and respected
    by all the other clans.
[13:14] ---
    If the Senju moved,
    so did the Uchiha.
[13:17] ---
    Our clan was probably the only clan
    able to compete with them.
[13:22] ---
    If a nation hired the Senju,
[13:23] ---
    the opposing nation would hire
    the Uchiha.
[13:26] ---
    We were like rivals.
[13:28] ---
    The more I went up against Hashirama,
[13:30] ---
    the more my name became known
    as well.
[13:36] ---
    *To get close to the top...
    to measure my abilities...
[13:42] ---
    To heighten your reputation...
[13:44] ---
    You took your younger brother's eyes
    just for that?!
[13:48] ---
    I did take them.
[13:51] ---
    But I needed power in order
    to protect the Uchiha.
[13:55] ---
    Protect?
[13:58] ---
    Yes. As the Uchiha name spread,
    its enemies increased.
[14:03] ---
    It was a necessary sacrifice
    to protect the clan
[14:06] ---
    during the fierce fighting with the Senju,
    and the other clans.
[14:12] ---
    It was not for my fame.
[14:16] ---
    My younger brother was
    in total agreement
[14:19] ---
    and offered his eyes to me.
[14:26] ---
    But one day,
    the Senju clan offered a truce.
[14:33] ---
    And the Uchiha accepted it.
[14:36] ---
    Everyone, in both clans,
    had grown weary of the fighting
[14:39] ---
    that had dragged on for so long.
[14:42] ---
    They had enough.
[14:46] ---
    But I...
[14:47] ---
    I was the only one who opposed it.
[14:51] ---
    Where has all the hate gone?!
[14:55] ---
    For what purpose had my brother
    sacrificed himself?!
[15:05] ---
    The Uchiha and Senju are
    like oil and water.
[15:09] ---
    I couldn't help fearing that in time,
[15:11] ---
    the Uchiha clan would come to
    be oppressed by the Senju clan.
[15:19] ---
    However...everyone in the Uchiha clan
    wanted a truce.
[15:25] ---
    As their leader, I had no choice
    but to go along with their wishes.
[15:32] ---
    Shortly thereafter, the ninja alliance
    signed a pact with the Land of Fire,
[15:38] ---
    which had sought dominion
    over the territories.
[15:40] ---
    The secure one nation, one village system
    was formed
[15:45] ---
    and became the Land of Fire and
    the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
[15:50] ---
    Other countries adopted
    the one nation, one village system.
[15:54] ---
    And subsequently,
    the fires of war were extinguished.
[15:58] ---
    Momentary peace.
[16:02] ---
    But due to a certain incident,
[16:03] ---
    the Hidden Leaf Village quickly
    descended into turmoil.
[16:07] ---
    A certain incident?
[16:09] ---
    A fight...for the First Hokage's seat.
[16:15] ---
    As you know, the first to occupy
    that seat was Hashirama Senju.
[16:20] ---
    The Land of Fire and
    the entire clan chose Hashirama.
[16:24] ---
    It was inevitable
[16:25] ---
    that the Uchiha's hold on
    the reins of power would loosen.
[16:29] ---
    I decided that the Uchiha
    should take leadership...
[16:35] ---
    That we should confront Hashirama...
[16:39] ---
    But no one, not even from
    the Uchiha clan, supported me.
[16:44] ---
    My subordinates, who did not wish
    to light the fires of war,
[16:47] ---
    were unsympathetic and betrayed me.
[16:55] ---
    I was accused of acting
    out of greed and self-interest.
[17:00] ---
    Not only that...
[17:01] ---
    They scorned me as
    a selfish brother
[17:04] ---
    who stole his younger brother's eyes
    in order to save his own.
[17:07] ---
    What brother would willfully
    hurt his younger brother?!
[17:11] ---
    I just...I just wanted to
    protect the Uchiha!
[17:18] ---
    I left the village.
[17:21] ---
    Everyone betrayed me.
[17:24] ---
    I became an avenger and declared
    war on the Hidden Leaf Village.
[17:45] ---
    And I lost...
[17:49] ---
    At that place which became known
    as the Final Valley.
[17:53] ---
    I was said...to have died there.
[17:57] ---
    Even Hashirama believed it.
[18:01] ---
    And everyone forgot about me...
    History forgot about me.
[18:07] ---
    Hashirama's younger brother
    who became the Second Hokage
[18:10] ---
    was determined that there would
    never be a traitor like me again.
[18:13] ---
    So, as proof of his trust, he granted
    the Uchiha a special position...
[18:19] ---
    And he created
    the Hidden Leaf Police Force.
[18:22] ---
    But the truth is...
[18:25] ---
    This was to further distance the Uchiha
    from the reins of government.
[18:28] ---
    Furthermore, it was a way to keep
    a close eye on the entire clan.
[18:33] ---
    There were Uchiha members
    who realized this...
[18:36] ---
    Members who wanted to carry
    on my rebellion.
[18:41] ---
    But...it was too late.
[18:45] ---
    Time passed...
[18:47] ---
    The Senju clan solidified
    its hold on power
[18:49] ---
    and the Uchiha fell to
    becoming Senju dogs.
[18:53] ---
    And what I predicted came to pass.
[18:57] ---
    A certain other incident sealed
    Uchiha's figurative demise.
[19:05] ---
    Yes...
[19:07] ---
    The attack of the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon
    16 years ago.
[19:15] ---
    What do you mean?
[19:18] ---
    The Nine-Tails can only be tamed
    and controlled
[19:21] ---
    by the ocular powers of the Uchiha.
[19:23] ---
    The higher-ups of Hidden Leaf Village
    perceived the Uchiha
[19:26] ---
    to be behind this attack.
[19:31] ---
    That was a natural occurrence,
    a natural calamity.
[19:33] ---
    The Uchiha had nothing to do with it.
[19:36] ---
    Yet suspicion fell on them...
[19:40] ---
    That the Uchiha had revolted
    and sought to take power.
[19:47] ---
    As a result,
    the Uchiha was put under
[19:49] ---
    the strict surveillance of
    the Anbu Black Ops,
[19:51] ---
    and they were forced to relocate
    to the outskirts of the village.
[19:56] ---
    They became totally estranged.
[20:00] ---
    The Third Hokage was the only one
    to voice opposition to our treatment.
[20:05] ---
    But Danzo of the Anbu Black Ops
[20:06] ---
    and the rest of the councilors
    would not listen.
[20:10] ---
    In the end,
    the Uchiha clan was not trusted.
[20:14] ---
    And the discrimination began...
[20:23] ---
    Their distrust bred hatred
[20:25] ---
    and eventually,
    their suspicions became reality.
[20:30] ---
    The Uchiha clan plotted
    a coup d'état to take over the village...
[20:37] ---
    The higher-ups in Hidden Leaf Village
    planted a spy within the Uchiha clan.
[20:42] ---
    That spy was your older brother...
[20:46] ---
    Itachi Uchiha.
[20:53] ---
    From that moment,
    Itachi's suffering began.
[22:36] ---
    You laid false charges
    against the Uchiha!
    
    
[22:38] ---
    That's Itachi's lie.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    I won't believe it!
    Itachi tried to kill me!
    
    
[22:45] ---
    If he really wanted to,
    you certainly would be dead. However...
    
    
[22:48] ---
    Stop it! I've had enough!
    
    
[22:50] ---
    You should know why.
    Because you are...
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time, on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Truth"
    
    
[22:58] ---
    That is Itachi's truth.
[23:04] ---
    Tune in again!
