That's pretty sad...
Poor Itachi, all this time they've set him up to be some sort of ultimate villain, and now we learn he truly had sasuke's best interests at heart. I find that somewhat disbelieving considering he literally put sasuke into a coma, but oh well, go with the flow.
Sasuke mental breakdown in 3.....2......
Man... Pretty deep story behind the Uchiha. So everything makes sense now. Itachi said all those things to Sasuke because he wanted Sasuke to kill him.
But umm... What if Sasuke killed Naruto back then and he got his MS already? Would there really be a need for Itachi to want Sasuke to kill him? Because If I understood what I just read, Itachi wanted Sasuke to kill him so he could gain MS.
Its very deep...One thing that bothers me is that why Itachi would just let Sasuke kill him. I mean, he should try to explain it to Sasuke even if he doesn't listen. He seems extremely selfless to give his life for the sake of his brother's power but why not just become stronger himself and protect Sasuke from harm?
I guess Madara really did hate Uchihas for betraying him...and this explains why he didn't take over the village already. But I wonder, why Madara needed to accept Itachi's offer. Because Madara shouldn't need Itachi's help for killing the clan...I can see him strong enough to do that alone.
I can see Sasuke planning to get revenge on Danzo and the village elders now. Maybe he'll choose to attack Root since it is Danzo's personal division
Probably because Itachi wanted to die himself, he didn't really have anything to live for anyway, plus he was an exiled ninja, known to be the murderer of the whole Uchiha clan and hated by everyone, which is why he probably wanted to die. Itachi wanted Sasuke to get stronger and to protect himself, if he told Sasuke what happened then Sasuke probably wouldn't be as strong as he is now. Being strong enough to protect yourself is always better than someone else protecting you.
I think it's pretty sad that Madara cut his hair short.
And also, this chapter makes me think that Sasuke><Naruto, just for awhile, maybe. He'd problaby have more ulterior motives, agendas, whatnot whenever this "Hey, let's sit down and talk!"-thing is over.
I still have a question. Why is Madara doing this? Is this the thing Itachi asked for? And what does himself gain from being in Akatsuki?
...the chapters tells more in the upcoming future, it seems.

So...when Danzou issued the order to Sai to kill Sasuke, it was actually for more than one reason....
Not only is Sasuke a traitor that defected to Oro, but he's the sole survivor of a clan that tried to wipe out Konoha.
I wonder if, now that Itachi is dead, Danzou will double his efforts to eliminate Sasuke.

still not buying it.
isn't it possible that Madare was the one planning the betrayal along with Sasuke's father? but when Itachi came to him he decided that it would be impossible now (I'm not ruling out an option that Itachi was stronger than Madare), so he joined the killing to make sure Itachi doesn't get EMSed by any chance.
If The village really wanted, they couldv'e spare the young uchihas and keep them, so in a generation or two, the clan would regain it's power but would have lost the ambition.
other than that, I wish we would have gotten something more serious than Uchiha craplore for the 400th chapter...
Wow...it seems that Kishi's getting serious about this story. It took awhile for the punchline to come, but its here...and it's pretty damned amazing. As good as anything I've ever seen. From the way Madara's telling the story, I don't think roots existed at the time this happened. The third knew about this, even though it seems pretty obvious it was all Danzou's idea, so there was no real need for covert op within a covert op. Though, I do see roots forming as a direct result of the fallout of this.
As for Sasuke...oh man...oh man. Marv from Sin City said it best: "If you're going to kill a man, you've got to be sure..." He didn't do any research to find out what really happened, and so he paid the price. Vengence...beautiful thing eh? Also, just as I'm about to go off on Sasuke for being such a moron, I now remember, he's just a kid. He's 15 now, he 12 when we met him, and he was about 10 when his clan was destroyed...you can't really expect anything better from him. Bravo to this story.
I dont know. It all makes a good amount of sense... Madara was the one who told Itachi how to get Mangekyou. Itachi missed a clan meeting (one could now presume concerning the coup d'etat) to kill Shisui and get the Mangekyou, then proceeded to wipe out the clan. And rereading some of the older chapters, you could see that Itachi was mad at the short-sightedness of the Uchiha to even start the coup d'etat, believing that they valued the glory of the Uchiha before establishing a lasting peace.
And honestly this was a great 400th chapter. Everything Sasuke thought he knew about... everything is shattered. It'll be interesting to see how he responds to this and how it effects the dynamic between him and Naruto (most likely of the Senju) and him and the village.( Could be ugly)
Dunno if any one else remembers this point... before Sasuke left Konoha with the Sound 4 Kakashi had him tied up and was having a chat with him. He warned him not to go down the path of venegence, saying it was not worth it and he would be left feeling emptier than before. I'm pretty sure that's what he said. Seem's kinda poigniant now doesn't it?
So, it was a mistake all long this time for Sasuke to kill his own blood brother, Uchiha Itachi. The truth has unveiled by the Uchiha Madara, that Itachi's mission from Kohona was to destroy the whole uchiha clan. Being double agent is really hard when he loves peace so much, but when considering the best option, ending the record book of his own clan was the only choice he could chose. Poor Sasuke. He is going to regret for hating his own brother so much after he was told the truth by Madara.
However, it's been a question on who actually won in the battle between the brothers? Well, the battle started on with two in genjutsu world, then they fought with ninjutsu in real world. It was unquestionable that Itachi did have problem in defeating Sasuke when his health condition had deteriorate due to excessive use of his Mangekyo Sharingan before. However, after reading volume 400, I am pretty sure that Itachi had no intention of taking his own brother's eyes. Maybe he was planning to plant his eyes to Sasuke during the battle, but Sasuke was too good for him at the moment and defensed it.
Nevertheless, after a hard and intense defence by Sasuke, Itachi still managed to control the battle with his Amaterasu and the final jutsu.
Therefore, from my abstract thought, Itachi won the battle against Sasuke but just right before he died, he planted all my eye techniques to Sasuke and fall in order to protect Sasuke from Madara. If Itachi has the intention to kill Sasuke from the beginning, then he surely has the opportunity to do just right before he fall. Sasuke was out of chakra and can't fend off Itachi's final jutsu. It's so obvious that Sasuke going to lose at the time.

This was a weird chapter.
Why is Madara putting so much of the blame on himself? And absolving the Third? I think he wants Sasuke to return to Konoha.
Picture it: Sasuke returns, but it's not the end of the story. Madara manipulates Sasuke and Naruto into fighting. Sasuke ultimately kills Naruto, the last living Senju. The war between the Uchiha and Senju is finally over. Madara becomes Hokage.
The End. You know that would be cool.
I think there's another reason why the battle dragged long. Itachi might probably tried to make Sasuke out of chakra so that Orochimaru will show himself. I quite convince that Itachi was waiting for this and then use the jutsu to put Orochimaru in genjutsu forever. Then, Itachi's final wish is to pass all his tehnique to his younger brother so that Sasuke will be stronger to be able to protect himself 'cos Itachi will not longer be there to protect his younger brother. A lovely brother.....
