Itachi was staring at the two Akatsuki members. He was making eye contact and said, "I shall know pain?" That is incredibly naive, like other people do not know pain. The Akatsuki member responded. I know you killed your whole clan so I do know you know pain. The ninja world at large does not understand true pain. They always wage war and the winners always flaunt their power. They abuse the weak. They do not know true pain. But once I show them true pain, they will look for peace. Bringing true peace to the ninja world. Give me the 9-tailed jinchuriki, Naruto, so I can show the world true pain. If you do not, I will show you the power of a god. Itachi, with pity in his eyes, responded. Because you do not understand true love, you allow your hate and pain to control you. I will show that you are not a god, just a shinobi. And just like everyone else, I will show you that even a god has weaknesses. Itachi got into a fighting stance, letting his Eternal Mangkyo Sharigan spin to life. I will show you the strength of someone who has found true love.

Itachi built up chakra in his eyes and said tsukioyomi. Itachi did not feel the pull into his tsukioyomi realm, which must mean this man is immune to visual genjutsu. Now that he was thinking about it, he did remember that the Uchiha stone tablet contained the story of the sage of 6 paths. And the drawing of it did look like ringed eyes so this person probably has the rinnegan the sage of 6 paths has. It would make sense as to why he was able to negate his tsukioyomi attack. He did not know how he got these eyes but he should not take this opponent lightly. Itachi made hand signs and said, "Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson." Itachi unleashed a volley of shuriken with one hand and, at the same time, exhaled fire-infused chakra onto them. Itachi sent these fire shuriken at both of the Akatsuki members but the one on the left got behind the one on the right. The one on the right put his hands in the direction of the attack and said, "Almighty push." The attack was sent back directly at Itachi. Itachi focused chakra on his feet and dodged the attack. Itachi focused chakra into his eyes and said, "Amatarasu." The Amaterasu flames ignited on the Akatsuki member, who had repelled the jutsu. After 2 seconds of burning, the flames extinguished on the Akatsuki member's body. The Akatsuki member said, "Almighty push," and the flames went off him. Itachi realized that there must be a cooldown on how long it takes for him to use his almighty push. Because if there was not, then he would have used his almighty push technique as soon as the Amatrasu flames landed on him. He used Amatarasu again and 5 seconds after that, the Akatsuki member said, "Almighty push," and the flames went off him. Itachi kept repeating this attack pattern and after the tenth time, the Akatsuki member fell down blackened and burnt. The other Akatsuki member summoned a massive, imposing head with a gaping mouth, surrounded by flames. This creature possessed the Rinnegan; it absorbed the burnt Akatsuki member and then expelled him, perfectly healthy, as if he had never sustained any injuries during the battle. The Akatsuki member got up and said, "I must end the fight now." He put his hand in the direction of Itachi and said, "Universal pull." Itachi felt himself being pulled towards the Akatsuki member. Itachi activated his massive orange full suanoo. Itachi put his Yata mirror infront of his Susanoo. Once Itachi activated his full susnaoo, it looked like the Akatsuki member was straining extremely hard. After a few seconds, Itachi felt his Susanoo heading straight for the Akatsuki member. The Aktatsuki member phased a black medal rod out of his hand and when Itachi got to him, he struck him with it. The black rod bent in half when it impacted Itachi's Susanoo. He was shocked never before seeing someone stop that rod before it was his main attack tool with this path of pain. Itachi, feeling the pull on him ending, jumped back, deactivating his Susanoo.

He looked at the Akatsuki member with his ever-analyzing eyes and spoke. "I will now show you the weakness of your technique." Itachi threw a 3-pronged kunai at the ground and there was a yellow flash next to him. Itachi saw Naruto next to him holding the kunai. He noticed Naruto's eyes widen in shock upon seeing the men wearing black robes adorned with red clouds. Naruto's eyes shifted into anger and hatred as bloodlust seeped through him like he was a man only living for the kill. Itachi tried to put his hand on Naruto but Naruto dodged it. Itachi realizing in sadness that he could still not reach the hatred consumed young man said, "Keep the guy on the right busy. Itachi saw Naruto throw his Hirashin kunai at the Aktaskuki member. Naruto crazily screamed while running, "I will spill your blood for taking away my precious people before my end!" The Akatsuki member dodged the kunai. There was a yellow flash behind him. The Akatsuki member turned around and put his hands towards Naruto and said, "Shinra tensei. "Then Naruto was sent flying away from the Akatsuki member. Itachi built up chakra in his eyes and then said Amatarasu. Black flames encased the Akatsuki member on the left, killing him. Then the one on the right looked at Itachi. Itachi closed his right hand and pulled it up slowly and pointed his right index finger at the Akatsuki member on the right. The Aktasuki member on the right stopped moving. Itachi saw Sasuke flying through the air with his full-bodied Susanoo out. And then he landed on the ground next to Itachi. Itachi looked at Sasuke and said, "Can you see it?" Yes, Itachi, I see a chakra string attached to this guy leading to somewhere far away. When I saw the other Akatsuki member, I saw it too. They must be being controlled by something. Sasuke looked at the frozen Akatsuki member, who still was not moving and looked at Itachi and asked, "What happened?" "He has a way to break visual genjutsu but his ego is massive so he must have just thought that he would never have to worry about other genjutsu. That guy called himself a god and he has the eyes of the sage of the six paths. But his ninja skill, outside of the power of his eyes, is chunnin at best. This is a good lesson; Sasuke take it in. Never let the power of your eyes ever make you think that you are unbeatable. This man has stronger eyes than ours. But this man was so consumed by his power he even considered himself a god. But he is just a shinobi and like everyone else, he has weaknesses. I need to stay here to keep the genjutsu active and to hold him off for whenever he breaks out. Take Naruto with you and follow the chakra string attached to this man." Sasuke took a second to fully take in Itachi's words and looked at the man with such powerful eyes, unmoving like a stone. Sasuke turned to Itachi and had a grin on his face. "Don't worry, Itachi, I will show them how much our village has grown for my brother's dream." 

Sasuke activated his full-bodied susanoo and took Naruto into his arms. Naruto started to hit Sasuke and try to escape from his grasp and kill the Akatsuki member. The only value to his life was revenge. Sasuke said, "Naruto, that is not the real Akatsuki member. There is a chakra thread connecting the person who is controlling him. He is nothing more than a puppet. Naruto immediately refocused, excited to finally have some revenge. Sasuke looked at Naruto in worry and sadness to see his best friend completely consumed by darkness. It was heartbreaking. He was amazed how the bright-smiling Naruto could just change into a shinobi consumed by hatred. Sasuke eventually saw a tree that appeared to have paper on its top half, making it look like a real tree. Sasuke and Naruto both walked into the tree and saw a sickly man with long, straight red hair. He had purple ringed eyes. He had his hands encased in long metal tubes. His body had multiple IV-like punctures in his legs that connected to a wooden structure on his back. He had 10 black rods coming out of his back. Behind him was a woman who had blue hair and wore a rose that matched the shade of her hair. She had a piercing below her lip. She wore a black robe with red clouds. She was Konan, the angel of the hidden rain village. The man with the red hair eyes went wide due to him thinking that he was fighting Itachi through his pain summon. Sasuke got a determined look, but before he could say anything, Nauruto immediately sprinted at Konan, consumed by his lust to kill anyone wearing those robes. The red-haired man put his hand out and, with a deep booming voice, said, "Shinra Tensei. "Naruto was sent flying back. Konan, realizing that this was their chance to escape, created a paper bird, placed the red-haired man on its back, and began to fly away. Sasuke activated his massive purple mountain-sized Susanoo again. He grabbed Naruto and, using the wings on his Susanoo, started flying following Konan. They were quickly catching up with Konan's paper bird and the red-haired man put his hand out and said, "Shinra Tensie." Sasuke, in his fully bodied, full Susanoo form, took the brunt of the attack, barely stopping for a second. Naruto, from inside of Sasuke's susano, threw one off his Hirashin Kunai and the man with the red hair dodged it. There was a yellow flash behind the red-haired man. After Hirashining to the spot, Konan was to his left and the red-haired man was to his right while standing in the middle of Konan's bird. Naruto forced his potent Kyubi chakra into his Hiramekarei blades. The blades transformed into two long, curved shapes. They both individually grew five times as long as Konan's bird. Naruto, with incredible speed and power, used his blade on the left to cut the man's head with the red hair completely off. The man's head fell to the ground screaming, "But I am a god!" while falling to the ground. Naruto screamed like a wounded animal, "THAT WAS FOR KAKASHI!!" Konan's eyes froze, knowing that in her chakra-exhausted state from her fight with Shino, she could not stop Naruto's next attack. She closed her eyes, choosing to have her last moment on earth to be filled with memories from a better time when Nagato and Yahiko only dreamed of finding peace. She was filled with hope for a better future. Naruto pivoted his foot swiftly back to the right and with his blade on the right, he cut off Konan's head, whose eyes just stayed closed. Naruto, still consumed by anger even after killing two Akatsuki members, screamed, "And that was for Yagura!!"

Sasuke flew to the ground with his Susanoo, while Naruto landed on the ground, placing his feet on the chest of the woman he had just killed. When he landed, her body got two footprints on his chest. His eyes became bloodthirsty and consumed by rage so he kept on stabbing the woman's body over and over again. He relished the blood leaking from her body, as it was the only thing he was living for. Sasuke turned his head and it disgusted him to see his best friend turned into a bloddlusting killer. Sasuke looked into the sky and saw his brother Itachi's red, full-bodied susanoo flying to the ground. Itachi landed and genuinely gave Sasuke a proud smile. Itachi became saddened looking at Naruto repeatedly stabbing the women in the Akatsuki robes. He knew that Naruto was growing into a force of darkness and would walk the same path as the Akatsuki members he wanted to kill so badly. Itachi sighed and turned to face Sasuke. Itachi walked to his younger brother and genuinely smiled. He poked Sasuke in the forehead and said. "I am so proud of the man you have grown into Sasuke. You are the only one that can reach Naruto now." Itachi put his hand on Sasuke's shoulder and walked away, leaving Sasuke the space he needed with Naruto. 

Sasuke put a determined look on his face; he was going to get his best friend back. Naruto saw a massive purple kiba blade stop his next strike on the dead Akatsuki member. Naruto looked up and saw Sasuke in his massive Susanoo. Sasuske saw Naruto look up at him in shock. Nartuo got up and stared at Sasuke and screamed like a feral monster. "Do not get in my way, Sasuke; I will kill all of the Akatuski members. I am going to go and find them now; I will kill them all!" Sasuke, with a determined look, said, "Naruto, what are you going to do when you kill them all? Naruto looked into the sky and put his hands into the air and said, "I will kill myself after killing all of them. I have nothing else to live for other than Kakashi's revenge." Sasuke determinatively said back. "You are consumed by anger; you have so many more things to live for. I want my best friend back. Your family wants you back. You are so much more than some anger-driven killer. You are someone who can touch other people's hearts with your smile! You are someone who's kindness gives hope." Naruto, with his anger growing activated, put on his orange Jinchuriki cloak and put chakra into his Himkari blades, which turned orange and half the size of Sasuke's Susanoo. Naruto was angry at Sasuke; he was not worth the love his family and village had to give. Sasuke was not going to stop him from doing the only thing that gave his life any meaning. Naruto used his sword to strike Sasuke's Susanoo. 

Sasuke stopped Naruto's sword strike. Naruto continued to keep on trying to attack Sasuke but Sasuke with his Sharingan active, was able to stop Naruto's blade strikes. While their swords clashed, Sasuke screamed out, "I understand your pain." Naruto cut him off with angered eyes and screamed, "Don't you dare say you understand my pain!" Sasuke, with a sad look on his face, made hand signs, and there was a clone with an anbu outfit. Naruto's eyes went wide in shock; he stopped attacking Sausuke. He started backing away from Sasuke and then he stopped. He pointed his finger at the Anbu and shakily quietly said, "You were the ANBU always watching me at the lake?" How?" Sasuke's clone became blurry and looked like Sasuke with an ANBU outfit on. I used genjutsu to fool you. I have seen everything. "You" tears started rolling Sasuke's eyes as he slowly walked to Naruto, who was montonaless. "You are my best friend who was so traumatized after Kakshi died right in front of him that he stopped talking to everyone. I saw my my." More tears continued to flow down Sasuke's face as he looked extremely saddened and disgusted by the truth of what he was about to say. "I saw my best friend train himself to exhaustion every day, puking and using his clones to beat himself up so he could feel pain. I saw my best friend try to kill himself in endless ways, always screaming about how pissed he was that his biju wouldn't let him die. I watched my best friend never smile at anything, living life falling into darkness. So don't you dare tell me that I don't understand. You have hundreds of hirashin kunai you could use right now. You have been using them to run away from everyone for months but why are you not using them now? 

Naruto's eyes went wide, standing still at the same spot. Sasuke was now close enough for Naruto to reach out and touch him. But he could not understand why he did not Hirashin away. Sasuke said, "The reason why is that in your core you still have a shred of hope to change. The Naruto with a smile that would captivate a room is still within you screaming to get out. All I want is to eat ramen with my best friend. Sasuke saw Naruto break down with tears streaming down his face uncontrollably. Sasuke had a slight grin on his face, poked Naruto on the forehead just like Itachi used to do to him, and said, " You are like a brother to me, Naruto. I will always love you." He put his hand on Naruto's shoulder as he broke down crying hysterically in one spot. "But I do not deserve to be loved." Sasuke felt annoyed whenever Naruto repeatedly said that he did not deserve love. "If you do not deserve to be loved, then why am I doing all these things for you? You are loved." Naruto broke down even more and Sasuke continued to speak. "On our mission to the Hidden Cloud village, I fought the man that ordered Itachi to kill our clan. I felt a strong desire for revenge against him for his actions. I still feel anger towards him for what he ordered Itachi to do. So I understand you wanted to get revenge for Kakshi. But Naruto, there is so much more to life than just revenge. It will take a lot of work and time and it will be hard but Naruto, you have so much to live for. The next time your depression takes over you, please allow me and your family to bring you out of your darkness. We are the ones who love you and want to help you when you are having a challenging time. You have a younger brother, Hinata, Anko, and me. You have so much love to give and life yet to live. But there is so much more to life than just revenge." Sasuke saw Naruto crack a quick smile and then hide it back under his mask of sadness. Not being used to showing positive emotion. But Sasuke grinned, knowing that Naruto's smile was a positive sign. Naruto looked at the women that he stabbed endless times to remember how truly bloodthirsty he was. He looked at Sasuke and said with the softest facial expression he had made since before Kakashi was killed, "I will change if you need me that much." Sasuke started laughing and thought to himself, Of course, the first thing he says is something sarcastic like that. The first thing he says is something sarcastic like that. Sasuke placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder with a genuine smile, activated his full-bodied Susanoo, and flew Naruto directly to his home. Naruto stopped feeling anxious about actually going inside that house. Sasuke looked at him and said, "Just a few seconds of courage, Naruto." Naruto nodded and walked to the door and knocked on it. Sasuke had the first massive smile on his face since Naruto fell into depression. He walked away wanting to give his family space for their reunion. But he was happy his bestfriend was back. After knocking, Naruto felt anxious and was about to take a step to leave the door when he heard footsteps behind him and pokes to his back, completely putting him to sleep.
