Retribution.

He trudged up the hill. His brow was lined with sweat, his clothes tattered strips, and his weapon chipped. His skin was still burning from where the faint wisps of amaretsu had caught up with him. His hands where singed from chakra overuse. His muscles where aching despite all the days, nay years of training. He had done it all. He had left his home or whatever was left of it, his friends, his last chance at a normal life, ran away, trained, trained harder, made allies, enemies, betrayed his allies, killed, killed more, and still…STILL…that man was untouchable. He trudged up the hill. He thought. He felt. He bled. He hurt. He had suppressed it all, all just for that one chance at revenge, at satisfaction. He stopped living for it. He never asked its worth. He dreamt of their faces at night. Their faces looked to him, their faces called him, his name. He barely slept anymore. It was a faint hope, the one thing he still had left, that revenge would make them go. Go away. Sometimes he barely knew where he was, what was he doing, lost in memories. That man. His brother. He remembered the blood. The helplessness. He remembered. It was all he had left. Memories and hope. Everything else was taken away from him. It was all he had to live for. He finally reached the top. He tensed as that man looked at him. The smirk, as painful as it was earlier. Those eyes. Burning red, spinning in all their unholy glory. That face had haunted him too. Taunting him in his dreams. Telling him of his failure, to his failure to help, for his failure to kill him. He called forth his chakra. "Again? Will you never learn?" Those eyes span faster as the man called out "Leave, leave Naruto. Forget that village. Forget me. Leave and live." He was still silent. It was natural to him. The fox was already taken, Madara was dead, the demons captured. Konaha annihilated. All by that man. His brother. Sasuke. He formed the rasengan as he jumped, again.
