The Weakness of Despair!!

Arriving at Kabuto's hideout, Sasuke names him at once. Kabuto tries to steer him into turning on Itachi, but Sasuke makes clear he came to speak with his brother and that Kabuto, having assumed Orochimaru's role, is the one he opposes. Far away, Tsunade demonstrates a technique that heals her instantly without any hand seals and hurls the blade impaling her straight back at Madara.

Madara draws the sword into his Susanoo, and when Ōnoki strikes from behind with Dust Release, he simply absorbs that too, boasting he could have done so sooner but chose to unnerve them with Hashirama's face instead. Tsunade challenges his bravado, pointing out that the Kage pushed him into relying on a wood clone. Rather than deny it, Madara concedes that five against one is a fair count and conjures twenty-five wood clones, five to meet each Kage.

Back at the hideout, Sasuke moves to kill Kabuto, but Itachi halts him, insisting they first uncover how to undo the Impure World Reincarnation. Sasuke agrees to help on the condition that Itachi answer his questions once the task is finished, and Itachi consents as the brothers and Kabuto brace for combat. The chapter falls within the Fourth Shinobi World War: Climax arc and is collected in volume 61; Viz titles it 'The Weak Point of Despair'.
