1
00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:09,910
Protect?
2
00:00:11,010 --> 00:00:12,550
Did you say protect?!
3
00:00:15,180 --> 00:00:16,580
You've got to be kidding!
4
00:00:18,010 --> 00:00:19,510
I'll say it once more...
5
00:00:20,380 --> 00:00:23,550
You think you know about your brother,
but you know nothing.
6
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:29,550
If you continue speaking
such nonsense, I'll kill you!
7
00:00:30,750 --> 00:00:33,610
You're not making this easy, are you?
8
00:00:34,410 --> 00:00:36,080
I suppose that's natural though...
9
00:00:36,850 --> 00:00:40,080
Suddenly being told such a story
by a stranger like me.
10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,710
But what I tell you is the truth.
11
00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:49,080
Itachi did mention it, did he not?
About his accomplice that night.
12
00:00:53,150 --> 00:00:55,780
I am that Madara Uchiha.
13
00:01:00,510 --> 00:01:02,580
I know everything about Itachi.
14
00:01:02,980 --> 00:01:06,710
I suppose Itachi died
without realizing that.
15
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,580
Shut up!
Such things don't matter anymore!
16
00:01:11,850 --> 00:01:13,580
Just get out of my sight!
17
00:01:13,910 --> 00:01:17,980
No, you will listen.
You need to hear this.
18
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,650
It's your obligation!
19
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,750
For the sake of the ninja world...
20
00:01:24,150 --> 00:01:25,650
For the sake of
the Hidden Leaf Village...
21
00:01:26,150 --> 00:01:28,450
And for your sake...
22
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,710
Your brother risked everything.
You will know how Itachi Uchiha lived!
23
00:01:38,950 --> 00:01:40,080
Do you know why?
24
00:01:41,510 --> 00:01:44,980
Why Itachi implanted Amaterasu
into your eye?
25
00:01:47,450 --> 00:01:51,480
Itachi was determined to make sure
that you and I would not meet.
26
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,980
You will understand why,
as well as everything else,
27
00:01:54,010 --> 00:01:55,150
when you hear me out.
28
00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:01,480
Those who knew the truth about Itachi
29
00:02:01,510 --> 00:02:04,280
were Danzo of the Hidden Leaf,
the Third Hokage,
30
00:02:04,310 --> 00:02:08,810
and his advisors Homura and Koharu.
Just those four.
31
00:02:10,310 --> 00:02:14,810
The Third Hokage died...
and now, there are only three aging folk.
32
00:02:16,410 --> 00:02:21,550
Still, those three will probably
never reveal the abominable truth.
33
00:02:22,580 --> 00:02:25,750
The truth about Itachi will fade
into darkness forever.
34
00:02:25,780 --> 00:02:28,550
And that is what Itachi wished.
35
00:02:33,980 --> 00:02:36,880
However, I know the truth
about Itachi too.
36
00:02:37,980 --> 00:02:43,080
As I said earlier...
Itachi died without realizing that.
37
00:02:44,410 --> 00:02:46,410
However, he wanted to
make doubly sure.
38
00:02:46,450 --> 00:02:49,380
It seems Itachi did not trust me.
39
00:02:50,180 --> 00:02:53,510
So just in case I did know the truth,
40
00:02:53,550 --> 00:02:56,750
he planned to silence me
with the Amaterasu.
41
00:02:57,550 --> 00:03:01,150
He probably anticipated I would show
my Sharingan
42
00:03:01,180 --> 00:03:02,850
in order to speak to you.
43
00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:06,350
What is this?
44
00:03:09,010 --> 00:03:10,980
What is this guy saying?
45
00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:14,950
Protect me?
46
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,450
Protect?!
47
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,580
The truth?
48
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,750
Think back.
49
00:03:29,010 --> 00:03:32,250
Think carefully and
remember about Itachi.
50
00:03:45,710 --> 00:03:48,510
About your kind brother.
51
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:04,380
What's wrong?
52
00:04:08,010 --> 00:04:10,880
This is it, right?
The place where Father works.
53
00:04:12,650 --> 00:04:14,480
This is the headquarters of
the Hidden Leaf Police Force.
54
00:04:15,380 --> 00:04:17,480
I've always been curious.
55
00:04:18,050 --> 00:04:22,450
Why is the Uchiha crest
on the police force logo?
56
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,510
What? You noticed that?
57
00:04:24,580 --> 00:04:25,910
Who wouldn't?
58
00:04:27,410 --> 00:04:29,550
Well...let's see...
59
00:04:30,450 --> 00:04:36,910
Simply put, it seems our ancestors formed
and organized this police force.
60
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,850
And so, they used our family crest
as the symbol of this organization.
61
00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:45,150
From ages past,
62
00:04:45,180 --> 00:04:47,710
our clan has been entrusted
with the safety of the village.
63
00:04:48,710 --> 00:04:52,910
The Uchiha crest reflects
the pride of our clan.
64
00:04:54,410 --> 00:04:57,480
While its numbers have dwindled,
65
00:04:58,050 --> 00:05:01,550
even today, nearly everyone in
the clan serves on Squad One
66
00:05:01,580 --> 00:05:03,880
and is dedicated to preserving
the peace and safety of the village.
67
00:05:05,780 --> 00:05:11,210
After all, only exceptional ninja are capable
of preventing crimes that ninja commit.
68
00:05:12,350 --> 00:05:14,480
Father is great, after all!
69
00:05:15,410 --> 00:05:17,180
Are you going to work here too?
70
00:05:17,950 --> 00:05:19,750
I wonder about that...
71
00:05:20,050 --> 00:05:21,250
You should!
72
00:05:25,350 --> 00:05:27,110
No, he...
73
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,450
He tried to kill me!
74
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,550
He tried to take my eyes...
75
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:39,280
Who would do such a thing?!
76
00:05:41,050 --> 00:05:43,350
Foolish little brother...
77
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,150
Mangekyo Sharingan!
78
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,780
Calm down!
79
00:06:04,510 --> 00:06:06,410
Breathe slowly.
80
00:06:13,610 --> 00:06:15,010
Don't touch me!
81
00:06:24,180 --> 00:06:26,210
Even if you do hate me...
82
00:06:27,380 --> 00:06:29,050
That's what big brothers are for.
83
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:37,010
Sorry, Sasuke... Another time.
84
00:08:24,710 --> 00:08:30,450
Fate
85
00:08:36,950 --> 00:08:38,150
You're awake...
86
00:08:39,450 --> 00:08:41,810
Sorry, but I took the liberty
of tying you up.
87
00:08:41,910 --> 00:08:45,010
Since you weren't gonna stay still
and listen to me.
88
00:08:50,810 --> 00:08:54,150
He... Itachi was my enemy.
89
00:08:54,750 --> 00:08:59,080
He killed our parents...
He killed everyone in the clan.
90
00:08:59,510 --> 00:09:02,980
He was a Rogue Ninja...
A member of the Akatsuki...
91
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:06,810
He was despicable.
92
00:09:07,950 --> 00:09:09,310
He was my target.
93
00:09:10,010 --> 00:09:11,480
It's true...
94
00:09:11,510 --> 00:09:15,050
that he annihilated
the Uchiha clan that night.
95
00:09:15,510 --> 00:09:17,310
And he deserted the Hidden Leaf.
96
00:09:18,750 --> 00:09:19,880
Then...
97
00:09:20,250 --> 00:09:24,780
And that is what he was ordered
to do by the Hidden Leaf.
98
00:09:27,150 --> 00:09:30,350
That is the beginning of
the truth about Itachi.
99
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:32,750
It was his mission?
100
00:09:33,910 --> 00:09:34,880
Yes.
101
00:09:35,350 --> 00:09:36,350
That night,
102
00:09:36,380 --> 00:09:39,080
Itachi killed his personal feelings
and fulfilled his mission.
103
00:09:44,380 --> 00:09:46,280
It seems you've calmed down a bit.
104
00:09:47,010 --> 00:09:48,480
What are you talking about?!
105
00:09:50,450 --> 00:09:52,580
In order to talk about Itachi,
106
00:09:52,950 --> 00:09:56,580
I must take you back to the early days
when Hidden Leaf Village was founded.
107
00:09:58,410 --> 00:10:00,550
Itachi sacrificed himself.
108
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,550
This is fate that has continued
since ages past.
109
00:10:04,710 --> 00:10:06,250
He was sacrificed for it.
110
00:10:07,050 --> 00:10:08,010
Sacrifice?
111
00:10:08,250 --> 00:10:09,180
That's correct.
112
00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:15,750
A huge problem rooted since the time
Hidden Leaf Village was founded.
113
00:10:16,180 --> 00:10:18,710
That is what determined Itachi's life.
114
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,410
It's a long story,
but everything I tell you is the truth.
115
00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:30,510
On what basis should I believe you?
116
00:10:31,010 --> 00:10:32,910
You're untrustworthy.
117
00:10:33,850 --> 00:10:36,380
There's nothing I can show you
as proof.
118
00:10:36,450 --> 00:10:39,910
And it's up to you whether
you believe me or not.
119
00:10:40,580 --> 00:10:43,710
But you will hear me out until I finish.
120
00:10:56,310 --> 00:10:59,010
Fine... So talk.
121
00:11:01,850 --> 00:11:04,910
It all started more
than 80 years ago.
122
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,750
The world was in turmoil.
It was the age of war.
123
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:20,350
Nations battled for power and
to increase their territories.
124
00:11:21,180 --> 00:11:23,150
During this age of war,
125
00:11:23,180 --> 00:11:27,380
ninjas consisted of individual clans
serving as armed units.
126
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:32,650
They were hired by various nations
to participate in the fighting.
127
00:11:33,250 --> 00:11:40,810
And among the many ninja clans,
two were feared as the strongest.
128
00:11:42,050 --> 00:11:45,080
One was us, the Uchiha clan.
129
00:11:45,450 --> 00:11:48,380
And the other was known
as the Forest's Senju Clan.
130
00:11:49,510 --> 00:11:53,080
We of the Uchiha clan possessed
exceptional chakra and the Sharingan.
131
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:58,180
Excelling in all types of warfare,
we became known as a battle clan.
132
00:12:00,010 --> 00:12:03,280
And I was born into the Uchiha clan,
133
00:12:03,310 --> 00:12:06,550
possessing chakra that
was especially powerful.
134
00:12:07,710 --> 00:12:11,210
Perhaps the fact that I've lived
this long is proof of that.
135
00:12:12,450 --> 00:12:15,180
Back in those days,
all I did was battle.
136
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,380
In an age defined by power,
137
00:12:17,410 --> 00:12:20,750
I sought to become ever stronger
138
00:12:21,010 --> 00:12:23,450
and killed my friends and
even my younger brother.
139
00:12:24,950 --> 00:12:26,150
Why you...!
140
00:12:26,610 --> 00:12:30,550
As a result, I came into possession
of the perfect Mangekyo Sharingan,
141
00:12:30,580 --> 00:12:32,950
and became the leader of the Uchiha.
142
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,810
And using that power,
I fought the Senju clan countless times.
143
00:12:39,510 --> 00:12:44,750
It was inevitable that I face Hashirama,
the leader of the Senju clan.
144
00:12:46,250 --> 00:12:50,810
"Wood Style" Hashirama Senju,
the future first Hokage.
145
00:12:51,450 --> 00:12:53,750
The one who stood at
the top of the ninja world...
146
00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:56,380
And the one I respected most.
147
00:13:03,180 --> 00:13:08,250
The Senju clan, led by Hashirama
who became the First Hokage,
148
00:13:08,650 --> 00:13:13,110
was feared and respected
by all the other clans.
149
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,450
If the Senju moved,
so did the Uchiha.
150
00:13:17,780 --> 00:13:21,310
Our clan was probably the only clan
able to compete with them.
151
00:13:22,450 --> 00:13:23,880
If a nation hired the Senju,
152
00:13:23,910 --> 00:13:25,810
the opposing nation would hire
the Uchiha.
153
00:13:26,010 --> 00:13:27,410
We were like rivals.
154
00:13:28,410 --> 00:13:30,350
The more I went up against Hashirama,
155
00:13:30,380 --> 00:13:32,650
the more my name became known
as well.
156
00:13:36,010 --> 00:13:40,050
To get close to the top...
to measure my abilities...
157
00:13:42,150 --> 00:13:43,850
To heighten your reputation...
158
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,050
You took your younger brother's eyes
just for that?!
159
00:13:48,180 --> 00:13:49,350
I did take them.
160
00:13:51,010 --> 00:13:55,280
But I needed power in order
to protect the Uchiha.
161
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,410
Protect?
162
00:13:58,110 --> 00:14:02,450
Yes. As the Uchiha name spread,
its enemies increased.
163
00:14:03,780 --> 00:14:06,650
It was a necessary sacrifice
to protect the clan
164
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:11,210
during the fierce fighting with the Senju,
and the other clans.
165
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,610
It was not for my fame.
166
00:14:16,250 --> 00:14:19,350
My younger brother was
in total agreement
167
00:14:19,650 --> 00:14:22,050
and offered his eyes to me.
168
00:14:26,550 --> 00:14:31,910
But one day,
the Senju clan offered a truce.
169
00:14:33,850 --> 00:14:35,810
And the Uchiha accepted it.
170
00:14:36,650 --> 00:14:39,950
Everyone, in both clans,
had grown weary of the fighting
171
00:14:39,980 --> 00:14:41,350
that had dragged on for so long.
172
00:14:42,310 --> 00:14:43,980
They had enough.
173
00:14:46,010 --> 00:14:47,280
But I...
174
00:14:47,310 --> 00:14:50,410
I was the only one who opposed it.
175
00:14:51,910 --> 00:14:55,150
Where has all the hate gone?!
176
00:14:55,780 --> 00:14:59,010
For what purpose had my brother
sacrificed himself?!
177
00:15:05,980 --> 00:15:09,180
The Uchiha and Senju are
like oil and water.
178
00:15:09,650 --> 00:15:11,780
I couldn't help fearing that in time,
179
00:15:11,810 --> 00:15:15,650
the Uchiha clan would come to
be oppressed by the Senju clan.
180
00:15:19,710 --> 00:15:24,480
However...everyone in the Uchiha clan
wanted a truce.
181
00:15:25,650 --> 00:15:29,750
As their leader, I had no choice
but to go along with their wishes.
182
00:15:32,910 --> 00:15:38,010
Shortly thereafter, the ninja alliance
signed a pact with the Land of Fire,
183
00:15:38,050 --> 00:15:40,310
which had sought dominion
over the territories.
184
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,380
The secure one nation, one village system
was formed
185
00:15:45,410 --> 00:15:48,710
and became the Land of Fire and
the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
186
00:15:50,580 --> 00:15:54,610
Other countries adopted
the one nation, one village system.
187
00:15:54,950 --> 00:15:58,610
And subsequently,
the fires of war were extinguished.
188
00:15:58,810 --> 00:16:00,850
Momentary peace.
189
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,950
But due to a certain incident,
190
00:16:03,980 --> 00:16:06,010
the Hidden Leaf Village quickly
descended into turmoil.
191
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,850
A certain incident?
192
00:16:09,550 --> 00:16:13,950
A fight...for the First Hokage's seat.
193
00:16:15,710 --> 00:16:19,150
As you know, the first to occupy
that seat was Hashirama Senju.
194
00:16:20,380 --> 00:16:23,180
The Land of Fire and
the entire clan chose Hashirama.
195
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:25,750
It was inevitable
196
00:16:25,780 --> 00:16:28,510
that the Uchiha's hold on
the reins of power would loosen.
197
00:16:29,250 --> 00:16:34,450
I decided that the Uchiha
should take leadership...
198
00:16:35,250 --> 00:16:38,310
That we should confront Hashirama...
199
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:43,450
But no one, not even from
the Uchiha clan, supported me.
200
00:16:44,510 --> 00:16:47,880
My subordinates, who did not wish
to light the fires of war,
201
00:16:47,910 --> 00:16:50,980
were unsympathetic and betrayed me.
202
00:16:55,810 --> 00:16:59,850
I was accused of acting
out of greed and self-interest.
203
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,280
Not only that...
204
00:17:01,310 --> 00:17:04,180
They scorned me as
a selfish brother
205
00:17:04,210 --> 00:17:06,810
who stole his younger brother's eyes
in order to save his own.
206
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,180
What brother would willfully
hurt his younger brother?!
207
00:17:11,710 --> 00:17:16,010
I just...I just wanted to
protect the Uchiha!
208
00:17:18,950 --> 00:17:20,510
I left the village.
209
00:17:21,550 --> 00:17:23,410
Everyone betrayed me.
210
00:17:24,310 --> 00:17:29,680
I became an avenger and declared
war on the Hidden Leaf Village.
211
00:17:45,580 --> 00:17:47,580
And I lost...
212
00:17:49,250 --> 00:17:52,610
At that place which became known
as the Final Valley.
213
00:17:53,310 --> 00:17:55,780
I was said...to have died there.
214
00:17:57,510 --> 00:17:59,980
Even Hashirama believed it.
215
00:18:01,750 --> 00:18:06,010
And everyone forgot about me...
History forgot about me.
216
00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:10,310
Hashirama's younger brother
who became the Second Hokage
217
00:18:10,350 --> 00:18:12,850
was determined that there would
never be a traitor like me again.
218
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,480
So, as proof of his trust, he granted
the Uchiha a special position...
219
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,750
And he created
the Hidden Leaf Police Force.
220
00:18:22,850 --> 00:18:24,780
But the truth is...
221
00:18:25,350 --> 00:18:28,080
This was to further distance the Uchiha
from the reins of government.
222
00:18:28,110 --> 00:18:31,710
Furthermore, it was a way to keep
a close eye on the entire clan.
223
00:18:33,150 --> 00:18:35,780
There were Uchiha members
who realized this...
224
00:18:36,510 --> 00:18:39,680
Members who wanted to carry
on my rebellion.
225
00:18:41,580 --> 00:18:44,280
But...it was too late.
226
00:18:45,210 --> 00:18:46,610
Time passed...
227
00:18:47,010 --> 00:18:48,980
The Senju clan solidified
its hold on power
228
00:18:49,010 --> 00:18:52,780
and the Uchiha fell to
becoming Senju dogs.
229
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,280
And what I predicted came to pass.
230
00:18:57,050 --> 00:19:01,010
A certain other incident sealed
Uchiha's figurative demise.
231
00:19:05,410 --> 00:19:06,450
Yes...
232
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,080
The attack of the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon
16 years ago.
233
00:19:15,610 --> 00:19:17,010
What do you mean?
234
00:19:18,180 --> 00:19:21,110
The Nine-Tails can only be tamed
and controlled
235
00:19:21,150 --> 00:19:22,910
by the ocular powers of the Uchiha.
236
00:19:23,910 --> 00:19:26,850
The higher-ups of Hidden Leaf Village
perceived the Uchiha
237
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,650
to be behind this attack.
238
00:19:31,210 --> 00:19:33,910
That was a natural occurrence,
a natural calamity.
239
00:19:33,950 --> 00:19:35,680
The Uchiha had nothing to do with it.
240
00:19:36,780 --> 00:19:40,150
Yet suspicion fell on them...
241
00:19:40,750 --> 00:19:44,850
That the Uchiha had revolted
and sought to take power.
242
00:19:47,550 --> 00:19:49,780
As a result,
the Uchiha was put under
243
00:19:49,810 --> 00:19:51,910
the strict surveillance of
the Anbu Black Ops,
244
00:19:51,950 --> 00:19:55,880
and they were forced to relocate
to the outskirts of the village.
245
00:19:56,580 --> 00:19:59,110
They became totally estranged.
246
00:20:00,580 --> 00:20:04,480
The Third Hokage was the only one
to voice opposition to our treatment.
247
00:20:05,010 --> 00:20:06,550
But Danzo of the Anbu Black Ops
248
00:20:06,580 --> 00:20:09,380
and the rest of the councilors
would not listen.
249
00:20:10,050 --> 00:20:14,110
In the end,
the Uchiha clan was not trusted.
250
00:20:14,950 --> 00:20:16,510
And the discrimination began...
251
00:20:23,250 --> 00:20:25,180
Their distrust bred hatred
252
00:20:25,210 --> 00:20:28,010
and eventually,
their suspicions became reality.
253
00:20:30,710 --> 00:20:35,180
The Uchiha clan plotted
a coup d'état to take over the village...
254
00:20:37,450 --> 00:20:42,680
The higher-ups in Hidden Leaf Village
planted a spy within the Uchiha clan.
255
00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:44,610
That spy was your older brother...
256
00:20:46,350 --> 00:20:47,750
Itachi Uchiha.
257
00:20:53,180 --> 00:20:56,180
From that moment,
Itachi's suffering began.
258
00:22:36,550 --> 00:22:38,710
You laid false charges
against the Uchiha!
259
00:22:38,980 --> 00:22:40,910
That's Itachi's lie.
260
00:22:40,950 --> 00:22:45,180
I won't believe it!
Itachi tried to kill me!
261
00:22:45,250 --> 00:22:48,380
If he really wanted to,
you certainly would be dead. However...
262
00:22:48,410 --> 00:22:50,680
Stop it! I've had enough!
263
00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:54,110
You should know why.
Because you are...
264
00:22:55,180 --> 00:22:58,310
Next time, on Naruto Shippuden:
"Truth"
265
00:22:58,650 --> 00:23:00,410
That is Itachi's truth.
266
00:23:04,980 --> 00:23:08,610
Tune in again!
