Naruto: How Sasuke Surpassed Madara Uchiha, Explained

From the beginning of Masashi Kishimoto’s Naruto, it was clear Sasuke was meant to be Naruto’s rival – their paths always seemed to run alongside each other. While the story focuses on Naruto, Sasuke is equally crucial. Not only does Naruto and even Boruto give a lot of time to his story, but his actions really shape what happens to other characters too. Like Naruto, who constantly strives to become stronger to achieve his dream of being Hokage, Sasuke also relentlessly pursues power. He’s motivated partly by wanting revenge for what happened with Itachi, and partly by a desire to stay on par with Naruto.
