Why should a mother sacrifice herself to atone for her sins?
Sasuke was furious, but that wasn't the reason he wanted to stop Madara Uchiha and Hyuga Kaze. The more important reason was that he didn't want to see Konoha disappear. He wanted Itachi to become a hero!
If Madara were to destroy Konoha, then the last trace of Itachi's existence would be erased, and if Konoha were destroyed, how could he let others know the sacrifices Itachi made for the peace of the village?
Even if Hyuga Kaze wins and Konoha is destroyed, would people believe what Hyuga Kaze or his mother say?
The only way to restore Itachi's reputation is through an official announcement issued in the name of the village, while Konoha still exists.
Thinking this, Sasuke stared intently at Kakashi and stated his conditions: "I can fight alongside you against Madara Uchiha and even Hyuga Kaze. After this is over, I demand that Konoha, in the name of the village, officially clear Itachi's name and acknowledge him as a hero!"
Kakashi readily agreed to the request. In fact, given the village's current state, he could simply agree to it right now.
"Well, it's a bit difficult, but as long as you make a contribution to the village, it shouldn't be a problem. After all, I'm now the Sixth Hokage."
Kakashi, Naruto, and Sasuke finished their conversation, and then Orochimaru and Kabuto also finished talking.

However, Lord Orochimaru and I are not strong enough to get involved in this."
Oh, right, there's a half-dead guy in the back room. He's the one who impersonated Madara Uchiha and announced the Fourth Shinobi World War. Judging from what they called him, he seems to be called Obito Uchiha.
