After brushing away the darkness that veiled his heart, the "Uchiha" falcon is now ready to spread his wings towards another goal.
Sasuke Uchiha, the boy who set "revenge" as his raison d'être. He erased anything that could pose an obstacle to his goal and sternly rejected warmth and peace to pursue greater power. It was a rough and gloomy path that meant crawling through the earth like a snake — as he also labeled himself —, prowling after his prey in the darkness. When Sasuke fulfilled his long-cherished ambition, revenge, a new world called "truth" opened his doors to him and the chains that bound his heart to the ground finally came off. Now the young falcon soars through the sky, majestic, surveying the landscape spreading out below him with the heavenly eyes bestowed upon him by the "strongest clan", finally able to decide his next route of his own free will! Even though he knows that what is waiting for him is another bloody road....
Three years have passed since Sasuke left the village. Now he radiates the same eerie aura as a sharp blade.
(balloons: "At last, I'm here.")
To Sasuke the path of revenge against Itachi is also a quest to look into the truth about his clan.
Sasuke was endowed with shinobi talent since when he was born, but during the years he spent away from the village his fighting skills improved even more rapidly.
(balloons: "Don't aim for their vital spots.")
He doesn't like to kill when unneeded. Is it a natural kindness flowing through his veins...?
{page 042-043}
The time has come.... The noble "falcon" swallows the "snake" and leaves the nest!!
[Rebellion]
For the sake of revenge Sasuke, willing to go as far as to stain his reputation becoming a "nukenin", has run to Orochimaru's lair. But even though he abandoned his village, it doesn't mean that he lost his pride as a member of the strongest clan...! He does accept Orochimaru's instruction, but meanwhile he rejects his evil beliefs and waits for the opportunity to rebel. When the Serpent misjudges Sasuke's growth, the "perfect chance" comes!
(balloons: "...I have the feeling I can be heartless with you too.")
(balloons: "You should have understood, by now....")
Sasuke decides that Orochimaru has nothing left to teach him anymore, so he makes his move! Even the "reincarnation ceremony" is ineffective against the Uchiha's power.
[The power of the white snake]
Orochimaru fell in love with Sasuke's body, endowed with the "Sharingan", and now he looks forward to his next reincarnation, when he will finally be able to take hold of the "vessel of his dreams". But before long, his ambition crumbles to pieces on account of that vessel's flawlessness. The noble blood flowing through him gifts him with a power that exceeds Orochimaru's imagination. Sasuke swallows up the abilities of the white snake, together with the fangs that longed for that blood.
(balloons: "My wounds have been healing faster since I absorbed Orochimaru.")
The power of the white snake also granted Sasuke a miraculously fast recovery speed.
Severed bonds and new ties.... All for the purpose of defeating his brother.
[Reunion]
Naruto, a friend. In the past, parting from him had been as painful as ripping off half of his own body, and even now that he has left the village the boy is still pursuing him. Nevertheless, meeting him again after three years doesn't shake his heart in the least. Bonds might confuse you, thus you have to "severe" them! The only tie an avenger needs is the one going by the name of "hate" with his brother...
Sasuke can behave cold-heartedly even in front of Naruto. This should have suggested him that the time has come for him to carry out his revenge.
(balloons: "I just didn't want to get stronger the way he told me to.")
His firm determination is also further confirmation of his intention to part from them.
["Hebi" is formed]
Now that Sasuke has gotten rid of all unnecessary bonds to pursue the strength needed to carry out his revenge, he decides to take another step towards the fulfillment of his ambition... He assembles a few comrades and thus earns new ties. But team "Hebi", formed for the sole purpose of "defeating Itachi Uchiha", consists of people who decided to accompany Sasuke weighing the merits and demerits of such action, so it might as well be likened to an unstable house of cards. The force that holds together this team liable to dissolve in thin air at any minute is definitely the awe and respect its members feel towards Sasuke's absolute authority.
(balloons: "My goal is to kill Akatsuki's Itachi Uchiha. And I want you to help me.")
Each member of "Hebi" is specialized in something, for example detection or close range combat. This facilitates independent action.
{page 044-045}
Studied fighting skills! His power surpasses even Akatsuki.
[Godlike speed]
Adding up to his innate talent, Orochimaru's strength — "cursed seal" included — granted him a power a normal shinobi could not even dream of. What one may find especially interesting is his speed, that has stood out ever since he was a genin. When that godlike speed is supported by Sharingan's reflexes, anyone standing before Sasuke is unworthy of existence.
In a blink he's in front of his opponent, then a flash of sword...!! Before his speed, even Akatsuki members hold their breath in awe.
[Tactics]
Sasuke's excellent resourcefulness as a shinobi is particularly evident in his battle sense and tactical skills. During fights he observes his opponent and accurately sees through his abilities without losing his calm, then he correctly chooses the most effective means and ninjutsu to counter him among the rich variety of items he has in stock. Moreover, at times his resoluteness enables him to pick painful strategies in which he needs to get hurt in order to win against the enemy. All these characteristics make Sasuke a remarkable shinobi.
His gaze is fixed upon the word "victory". That is why he can also see the way that leads to it.
The symbol of the "cursed bloodline" frightens and subdues the enemy.
[Insight]
The "Sharingan" is the symbol of the illustrious "Uchiha clan" and also the reason behind the tragic fate of their bloodline. Sasuke is proud of that power, and that is why he always makes full use of its abilities when fighting. He deduces a jutsu's elemental property from the seals performed by its user, then he is able to determine at once the attack range from the color of the chakra. So far, the images of his defeated opponents have always been reflected in his eyes...
(balloons: "Haha... Why?")
Any plan the enemy might think of or any trick he might use are fruitless in front of Sasuke.
[Eye power]
The main reason why the "Sharingan" was feared by everyone, including the inhabitants of the village, is the power hidden in those eyes, able to subdue even "bijuu". Sasuke, who is rapidly mastering his skills as an Uchiha, is also gradually awakening to that cursed power.
(balloons: "Those eyes... How did you dare... control me... with those eyes...!")
The ultimate power of the "Sharingan", that once could tame even the "Kyuubi". A portion of it is visible in Sasuke when he is able to control Manda.
(balloons: "Now I can see it... So this was your mysterious power....")
Sasuke's eye power is even able to seize the Kyuubi that dwells in Naruto's body!! Looking at that ominous strength, the Kyuubi is reminded of Madara Uchiha...
{page 046-047}
The day he reunites with his brother is the day he will have to fight until the death of one of them!!
[Illusion and reality]
Ever since he was little, when his brother stole eveything from him, Sasuke's utmost goal has been to take revenge on him. Now that they met again they throw knives and countless genjutsu at each other, each for the purpose of realizing his own desire, that is to crush the other's dreams! But in this fight in which illusion and reality intertwine, there is one truth Sasuke has to rely upon: the tragedy of that night. And the seething hatred for his brother, Itachi.
(balloons: "Try to recreate it.")
Ever since that day the two Uchiha have walked different paths. But fate pulls them together again and invites them to fight.
Both of them use countless genjutsu while at the same time throwing daggers and other weapons at each other. Calling this fight breathtaking is an understatement.
Sasuke is cornered by the eternal hell created by the "Mangekyou Sharingan"...!!
Perhaps on account of his deep hatred towards his brother, Sasuke manages to beat the "Mangekyou Sharingan", whose abilities are way superior to the ones of a normal "Sharingan"...!!
Revenge is finished.... And now another bloodstained quest for retaliation awaits him.
