...Madara Uchiha (うちはマダラ, Uchiha Madara) is a legendary shinobi who led the Uchiha clan prior to, and after the formation of Konohagakure. After allying with his rival, Hashirama Senju and the Senju clan, he and his clan helped in the founding of Konoha.[3] He eventually came to an impasse with Hashirama, and defected from the village. He was later seemingly killed by his rival at the battle at the Valley of the End, but in fact went into hiding to begin his decades-long plot, known as the Eye of the Moon Plan, which was continued by Obito Uchiha who later joined him. Madara was eventually reincarnated by Kabuto Yakushi during the Fourth Shinobi World War, and later revived as a living person by Obito. He is one of the main antagonists of the series. Upon his revival, Madara is one of the last three living Uchiha. Contents[show] Background Hashirama and Madara as kids Madara meeting Hashirama.

For his part, Sasuke thought little of Naruto and was usually annoyed by his outbursts, but would, at times, secretly smile at how hard Naruto worked because of him. Ironically, for all the attention he received, Naruto was the only person among his peers who understood Sasuke due to the painful experiences he had. After his final encounter with Itachi, Sasuke is left uncertain about what course to take. From long observation, Sasuke decides that the desire for vengeance that drove him for so long is the perfect solution to the world's problems: if a single individual, what Sasuke calls the “Hokage”, is solely responsible for making the difficult decisions for the greater good, then everybody will be unified in their hatred of that individual. He volunteers himself for that responsibility and, in order to prepare himself, plans to eliminate what few friendships he still has, namely Naruto Uzumaki. But Naruto, by refusing to give up on saving Sasuke from darkness, demonstrates that their friendship is too fundamental to who...
