I was thinking... Don't worry, I was wearing a helmet. :P Anyway, I was thinking about the relationship between Sasuke and Itachi again. Since Naruto's mother was revealed, I had to come up with a new theory about Naruto. And this is what I came up with.
Sasuke and Itachi have more in common than they realize. And what is the biggest one of those? The fact that they hurt the people they love the most in order to save them. It sounds kind of crackpot when you first hear it, but think about it. Itachi hurt Sasuke, someone close to him, bymurdering their parents so by that hatred, Sasuke could grow stronger and in his own way, not Itachi's. Sasuke hurt Sakura and Naruto, the people closest to him, by leaving Konoha. But it was to go after and kill Itachi, so when he returned to Konoha, he could live a peaceful live and share it with them. In both situations, it was to protect someone.....
