Itachi never encountered the real Madara

Madara was a creepy old man.......but still pretty cool

let's just wait for the next chapter, ok? for me, i'm still not sure if that old man was really Madara, he could be someone else. like Izuna. =)

+Rep I thought it was Madara until this issue but seeing him at that age proves it wasn't.

Kishi really trolled Itachi on this one, making Itachi out to be one of the smartest characters in the Manga but letting him believe for years Obito was Madara.
