Itachi always told Sasuke to gain the mangekyou by killing those closest to him, this was a part of his disguise as his evil brother. After all Sasuke had a chance to do so at the valley of the end. Even after Itachi said to naruto that he entrusted him to save Sasuke, Itachi still berated Sasuke during their final fight for not having the mangekyou. My question is how did Itachi know that Sasuke wouldn't kill naruto and gain the mangekyou that way? Was it a huge risk on Itachi's part?
