Roar, Chidori! Brother vs. Brother! (Japanese: 唸れ千鳥 吠えろサスケ！ - Unare Chidori, Hoero Sasuke!) is episode 84 of the anime series Naruto. The episode's storyline is from the Return of Itachi manga arc. It shows the confrontation between Sasuke and Itachi.
[edit] Plot
Naruto opens the door to face Itachi. Kisame also appears, and is surprised at the puny kid, knowing that the Kyuubi is actually inside Naruto. Itachi tells Naruto to step outside, and Kisame offers to remove Naruto's legs to prevent any hassles. As Kisame moves in for the kill toward a shocked Naruto, a voice suddenly sounds behind the Akatsuki members.
The voice belongs to Sasuke, who has finally found where Naruto is. Kisame is surprised that there was another person with the Sharingan, and that he is very similar to Itachi. Itachi then states that Sasuke is his little brother. With overflowing hatred, Sasuke powers up Chidori and rushes toward Itachi, only to have Itachi nonchalantly deflect his Chidori into a nearby wall and proceeds with breaking Sasuke's wrist. Naruto tries to help by using his summoning jutsu, but Kisame just absorbs Naruto's chakra with his Samehada then suggests to avoid Naruto using his "petty" techniques before he shaves off his arms first instead of his legs.
Just when things become bleak, a summoned armored frog stops Kisame's Samehada and Jiraiya (carrying the extremely good-looking woman Itachi hypnotized to separate him from Naruto, who is now unconscious on Jiraiya's right arm) finally appears.
[edit] Trivia
- This is the first time that we are introduced to the chakra absorbing power of Samehada.
- Despite his overwhelming hatred for Itachi, Sasuke's code of honour still seems to be present, since he openly challenged Itachi instead of attacking without warning.
- Itachi's brutal murder of the Uchiha clan is flashbacked to in this episode.
- As Sasuke is running and he passes the candy guy and you can see a glimpse of Kisame and the samehada right after him.
