the "who will kill itachi" thread

[Raven]

I don't think Itachi really cares about Sasuke, but rather he wants someone who can fight him equally with his Mangekyou Sharingan. Sort of like training someone up to fight with in a crude manner of speaking.

At the end of their battle - it's possible that Sasuke thought he actually killed Naruto, thus his frame of mind stated that he'd killed his best friend, unlocking the ability. We don't know how it works exactly, but it has to be about the evilness of killing someone you've cared about, and for all we know Sasuke thinks he succeeded in that department.

hehe : )

I dunno... Maybe 2.


I don't know enough about Oro's ability to take over bodies, but it seems that the Mangekyou Sharingan (and possibly, -though it might be lame- Sasuke's hatred for Itachi) might be enough to allow Sasuke to free himself from Oro....

Itachi is interesting, he's sick, but he's no lunatic. I don't think he lost himself in the massacre where he might have killed Sasuke had Sasuke arrived during the slaughter. Had he killed Sasuke, I could see Itachi losing it and heading for Kohana and elsewhere with the purpose of killing everyone.

It is possible that there is some other eye that is similar to Mangekyou that Sasuke can obtain, if not Mangekyou itself...
I do not know if Sasuke will kill Itachi,but he might atleast torture him nearly to death.

unfortunately it does seem like sasuke will be the 1 to kill itachi, unless kakashi does it first LOL

I go with #2 that he will kill Itachi defending his friends but probably will end in a dramatic way.

Sasuke uses the chidori and thrust it through itachi and are facing each other very close. Itachi coughs blood and slowly moves his hand upwards and flicks Sasuke in the forhead and says "Good job Sasuke. You have gotten strong", then he coughs more blood and dies.

I really like the idea of the 3rd mangekyou user organizing the destruction of the Uchiha, although it is kinda out there.

I think Itachi still cares about Sasuke in some kind of way, whether it be as a brother or to have someone fight with him as an equal, but that theory is kind of obsolete with the implement of a 3rd Mange user. Why would Itachi want Sasuke to become just as powerful if not more powerful then him just for the thrill of the fight? It can't be like that when obviously there are infinite amount of people out there stronger then Itachi was at that point, including the 3rd Uchiha so you can't say he wants it to be from an uchiha. He left Sasuke alive because he cares for him. I think at some point Itachi either finds out or decides to act on the fact that Oro wants sasuke's body, and there is a badass fight between itachi and orochimaru> But can't figure out where sasuke would be in this bout.

it could be itachi left sasuke alive so that there would one day be someone good enough to test his skills fully as he feels only another uchiha sharingan user could be his equal

or sasuke could have been left alive because itachi wants someone to kill him and he feels the best person would be his brother, not only because his brother has the chance to master the sharingan, but also because they are family and he feels his sasuke is the only right person to kill him.

from what i have observed of itachi he appears drained in the fact that he appears to be much older than he actually is, the reason for this is because he killed everyone and he knows that the way he should die is to be killed by someone who really wants him dead, sasuke

sorry if this didnt make sense to u guys, but in my own little mind it does
