CHAPTER
397 - The Man Who Knows the Truth
Sasuke’s own Sharingan is triggered as Tobi
partially removes his mask to reveal the Sharingan in his right
eye. Blood suddenly begins to swell from Sasuke’s
eye and his Sharingan starts morphing into the same pattern as
Itachi’s Mangekyou Sharingan. Tobi is caught by
surprise as Sasuke’s Mangekyou activates the Amaterasu and
ignites his right shoulder. In seconds, his whole body bursts
into flames. Tobi yells in pain and falls back into the
shadows, dropping his mask.
Sasuke’s clutches his right eye in agony but
slowly relaxes as the Mangekyou fades away and reverts back to the
normal Sharingan. Sasuke is as surprised as Tobi was and has
no idea how his Sharingan had transformed by itself.
Tobi’s voice once again comes out from the shadows
and informs Sasuke that it was the
Amaterasu technique which Itachi had implanted inside him. An
unscathed Tobi emerges back into the light and puts his mask
back on. Tobi is impressed that Itachi had planned
so far ahead that he even anticipated a situation like this after his
own death. Tobi explains that Itachi planted his own jutsu in
Sasuke as a last attempt to murder himself or perhaps just to keep
himself away from Sasuke. 
He speculates that Itachi planned it so that the trigger for this trap
was the sight of his own Sharingan. Tobi was fortunate to
survive because he kept a few of his powers secret from Itachi.
Sasuke is confused about what Tobi is getting at.
Tobi tells him that Itachi transferred his jutsu to him just before he
died. It occurred when he tapped Sasuke on the forehead and
left a streak of blood on his face. Sasuke cannot understand
why Itachi would do such a thing. Tobi explains it
simply: it was because Itachi wanted to protect
Sasuke. Sasuke is initially shocked, but still refuses to
believe Itachi would do such a thing. Tobi admits that Sasuke
has a right to be suspicious hearing these things from a total weirdo,
but he assures him that he speaks the truth.
Tobi says he knows that Sasuke had asked Itachi about the
person who helped him during the night of the Uchiha
massacre. He reveals to Sasuke that he was Itachi’s
accomplice, Madara Uchiha. Tobi comments that he knows
everything about Itachi, but Sasuke tells him that he doesn’t
care anymore and demands Tobi to leave. Tobi responds that it
should be Sasuke’s duty to know more about Itachi.
Sasuke needs to know about the man who risked his life to protect the
shinobi world, the Hidden Village of the Leaf, and most of all, his
little brother. It is time that Sasuke learns the truth
behind the life of Itachi Uchiha.
