Vol.52 Chapter 485 – Near… Far…

Naruto asks how Sasuke could have tried to kill another member of Team 7. Sasuke reminds him that he is a former team member. Naruto tells Sasuke that he knows the truth about Itachi, that he understands why Sasuke did all this, but Sasuke insists that Naruto will never understand him since he never had a family. Kakashi orders Naruto and Sakura to return to Konoha while he deals with Sasuke, but Naruto holds him back instead. Sasuke takes this opportunity to try to kill Kakashi. His Chidori is blocked by Naruto’s Rasengan. Naruto states that he is glad he met Sasuke, as he could have easily become like Sasuke. Sasuke points out that Naruto has only two options: kill him or die. Naruto rejects both options.
