I posted this on another forum before, so...

Did you forget that Itachi is(was) under a genjutsu called Kotoamatsukami?
His ''orders'' set by Kotoamatsukami were: 'Protect the Leaf!'

But!
Itachi doesn't kill Sasuke (who is a threat to the Leaf), doesn't that make Kotoamatsukami a failing jutsu?
Since no one can resist Kotoamatsukami's order, Itachi had to disable Sasuke too in order to protect the Leaf.

Itachi's subconsciousness should have made him disable Sasuke, because Sasuke is a danger to Konoha.
Sasuke said it: 'Just like you protect the Leaf, I will crush it.''
That's why I think that Kotoamatsukami failed, because it didn't protect Konoha from the dangers.

maybe its a hint that the only way to protect the leaf is to leave sasuke who may be a good allie one day for them , as i think sasuke and naruto will end up double teaming madara :)
but anyway i agree with you and i think i repped your last thread on this :D i'll rep it again though, you do have a point :P

Nice idea, and I think you're right actually, but perhaps Itachi's will is just stronger than kotoamatsukami

That is way far fetched. Danzo gave Itachi a choice after all. If it was up to Danzo he'd have them all killed including Sasuke.

When he and Nagato met Naruto and Bee.
He pulled the crow out of Naruto's mouth and used it for Kotoamatsukami.

He means when the crow got Itachi out of Edo Tensei. I don't think KA is very powerful if you know about it. Remember when Mifune was under it. As soon as he was told he was being manipulated by KA, he was no longer affected by it. Maybe if you know you are under KA the jutsu loses its power.

Edo Tensei was the threat. Once KA was used on Itachi, Nagato and Edo Tensei became the threat and not sasuke.

I think Danzo canceled it himself. He was already caught.

but that is one good point.(The original one)

@ yoo
Danzo was dead at the time.

Guys, orders were: 'Protect Konhoa' not 'protect konoha from edo tensei' -__-
Even if Hokage herself was a threat, Koto would trigger Itachi's mind to do something in order to protect Konoha.

Maybe Itachi's mind is stronger than Koto, like some of you said.

Right now Sasuke is number 2 threat to Konoha beside Madara.

Maybe that headbutt (:D) did something to Sasuke? :shrug:

the major threat to konoha at that time was Kabuto's ET, so itachi stopped ET after which the best hope to protect konoha is sasuke fighting kabuto (since itachi disappeared after ET was released) which will happen so i think the KA is not yet broken

Itachi's logic - ' I love the Leaf, but I'll give my bro some powers to destroy it'
:D

I think it was suppose to be used when Naruto fought Sasuke. Cause one of them would say 'Protect Konoha' so then the bird would come out and it was triggered for Itachi's eyes. Which Sasuke would have so I would make him want to protect Konoha. Itachi believes that Naruto can talk sense in to Sasuke since he cannot.
