[heavy breathing]

ITACHI: In the main hall of Nagato's Shrine,

underneath the seventh tatami mat from the far right

is the clan's secret gathering place.

SASUKE (VOICEOVER): I see now.

So that's what it all means.

FUGAKU: Now then, that's my boy.

-When were alone, the only one he talks about is you, Sasuke.

-I just wish I knew what kinds of things

he said to her about me.

ITACHI: If you wish to kill me one day in hate and revenge.

SASUKE (VOICEOVER): Brother, no matter

what darkness may await me, if it means killing you,

I will meet it head on.

And whatever happens, I will get that power.

-I fed my hatred and gained power,

and now I'm here to settle this, Itachi.

You will die right here.

You'll fall by my hand.

[theme music]

-Now, Itachi, you asked for it, so here is it at last.

I'll make your death a reality.

-Jutsu that can't be evaded, just like the Amaterasu?

What is it?

What kind of jutsu could it be?

[thunder]

BLACK ZETSU: That's it.

That's what Sasuke's fire style earlier was for.

WHITE ZETSU: What do you mean?

BLACK ZETSU: Sasuke's real target

was never Itachi to begin with.

That's not what the fire style attack was for.

WHITE ZETSU: I still don't get it.

What does that mean?

BLACK ZETSU: He shot his fire style jutsu into the sky

to cause the ambient temperature of the atmosphere

to rise rapidly and create an ascending air current.

WHITE ZETSU: A what?

Ascending air current?

BLACK ZETSU: To form a cumulo nimbus.

In other words, to create a thunder cloud.

WHITE ZETSU: I don't understand.

What does that have to--

BLACK ZETSU: He doesn't have to use his own chakra.

Instead, he intends to take advantage

of the enormous energy in the atmosphere

to create a lightning style jutsu.

WHITE ZETSU: Which one?

BLACK ZETSU: Whichever it is, it'll

be on a totally different scale from what anyone can create

using change and nature chakra alone.

I see.

Sasuke deliberately lured Itachi outside,

so he could use the heat generated by the Amaterasu.

-This jutsu guides the lightning down from the heavens.

All I have to do is merely direct it's power right at you.

BLACK ZETSU: Just as I thought.

That's why this jutsu can't be evaded.

-Why not?

BLACK ZETSU: Ligtning flashes in 1/1000 of a second.

It's faster than sound.

-This jutsu is called Kirin.

-What's that?

BLACK ZETSU: Sasuke has tamed the lightning.

-Come.

You'll be gone with the thunder clap.

BLACK ZETSU: Such power.

WHITE ZETSU: So did Itachi die?

-It's done.

It's finally over.

ITACHI: Is this the death you had imagined for me then?

-Damn you!

-That's--

-If I hadn't had this, I'd have been dead.

-What's that?

-You really have gotten stronger, Sasuke.

Now, it's my turn.

I'm going to reveal to you my final trump card, the Susanoo.

I'm going to reveal to my final trump card, the Susanoo.

-The Susanoo.

-Yes, the one other jutsu.

Once the Tsukuyomi and the Amaterasu were awakened,

it also took root in these eyes of mine.

Sasuke, is that it for your jutsu then?

If you have anything else up your sleeve,

now's your last chance to play it.

The real battle's just beginning.

-The sky is clearing.

BLACK ZETSU: Seems that last jutsu

was limited to only one shot.

-What's that?

-What's the matter?

You use up all your chakra and run out of options?

-What?

OROCHIMARU (VOICEOVER): I can give it to you.

I can lend you the power that you need.

-Damn it!

OROCHIMARU (VOICEOVER): You need me.

Don't you, dear Sasuke?

I thought that you wanted to take revenge on Itachi?

Now, release me.

Release my power and you can fulfill your dream at last.

-That feels like Orochimaru's eight headed serpent jutsu.

-What is that?

BLACK ZETSU: This is all because Sasuke

tried to squeeze out more power despite not having

any more chakra left.

Orochimaru's chakra, which Sasuke absorbed and suppressed

has shoved its way to the surface.

-And now, it finally emerges.

-Wait, is that-- Well, father was always

regurgitating something out of his mouth like that.

BLACK ZETSU: Slithering around like the snake he is.

-This is it.

This is what I've been waiting for.

Thanks to you, the repressive chakra is gone.

And now, at last, I have the chance

to take over this child's body for good.

And so-- [laughing] Did you truly

believe that a puny attack like that

could take down the likes of me?

Ah.

-Well, Sasuke, what will you do next then?

-This sword, it can't be.

The Totsuka blade.

Itachi, it was hidden in you all along.

-What's with that sword?

BLACK ZETSU: The Totsuka Blade, also

know as the Sakegari Blade.

It's a sword of Sealing.

It is said to trap and seal away those

who it pierces in a genjutsu world of drunken

stupor for all eternity.

The blade itself is imbued with sealing jutsu

and is a variant of the Kusanagi Blade.

Orochimaru has long searched for that sword.

WHITE ZETSU: It's power is immense.

-This is it, Sasuke.

-So what's with Itachi's jutsu?

BLACK ZETSU: That jutsu he calls Susanoo,

it seems to be awfully risky.

WHITE ZETSU: But Sasuke can no longer maintain his Sharingan,

and he's also been stripped of Orochimaru's chakra.

Don't you think Itachi's already won this?

-And now, your eyes are mine.

I'll take my time retrieving them.

-Ah!

-Whoa, what the hell?

BLACK ZETSU: Something's wrong with him.

[coughing]

-Damn it.

-That Susanoo jutsu of his, it's simply

repelling every single one of Sasuke's attacks.

BLACK ZETSU: There's no mistaking it.

It's another spirit weapon.

It's called the Yata Mirror, and it's

said to deflect all things.

With that and the Totsuka Blade for attacking,

Itachi's invincible.

-They're my eyes.

They're mine.

-Ahhh!

[groaning]

[heavy breathing]

WHITE ZETSU: Itachi collapsed.

No way.

Is Itachi really dead?

BLACK ZETSU: It's Sasuke's victory.

-There's something I still don't get.

BLACK ZETSU: Like what?

WHITE ZETSU: I know that Itachi is stronger than this.

He was moving quite strangely.

Even you said that something seemed off about him.

BLACK ZETSU: That's true.

He couldn't evade or counterattacks

that he should have been able to handle,

and he was coughing up blood.

Perhaps he sustained some serious damage,

even before the battle.

WHITE ZETSU: Could it have been caused

by using the Sharingan too much?

BLACK ZETSU: Not sure.

I don't think we can draw any conclusions.

WHITE ZETSU: He was close to getting Sasuke's eyes too.

[theme music]

NARUTO: Damn it.

What is this guy?

All he's doing is try to stall us.

Why can't I hit him with my rasengan?

No, that's not it.

I did him it.

I know it, but-- damn it, we can't waste anymore time.

I have to get past this guy.

I have to get to Sasuke.

Next time on Naruto Shippuden, "The Mystery of Tobi."

You won't want to miss it.
