SPOILER WARNING (Also, this is about pre-Rinnegan Obito.)
Itachi was the only thing keeping Obito in line for part one & two.
Obito was the one to flee from Itachi.
The only movie written by Kishimoto pretty much shows this:
Itachi shows up to rescue Sakura and immediately realizes that physical attacks won't work:
Itachi says he knows a way to hurt Obito in spite of Kamui:
Obito chooses to go "Well, shit. I don't want to get soloed, so I'm out." and teleports away:
FYI, constantly keeping his distance is how Obito kept even Kamui a secret from Itachi.
He kept it a secret from no other ninja...
Obito thought Itachi was THE SHIT, bra.
Obito was constantly amazed by Itachi...
Conclusion:
Obito was incredibly, incredibly cautious of Itachi & kept his distance
He even stayed out of Akatsuki when Itachi was roaming.
(So both Orochimaru and Obito have that in common.)
BONUS ROUND!
Itachi's trap was designed to activate on the Kamui eye...
Amaterasu spawns flame wherever the person (Sasuke) is looking...
By chance, and luck alone, Sasuke looked away, sparing Obito's eye...
It's cool though. Itachi's backup-backup plan did well...
Itachi soloes.
Itachi was the only thing keeping Obito in line for part one & two.
Databook said:Sasuke grew up to his liking, and Itachi is dead. Only a few bijuu remain [to be captured]. There is nothing left to hinder his ambitions.
