This isn’t relevant till the end of the first series but so you’re aware many people will recommend you watch shippuden episodes 119-120 during the break between naruto and naruto shippuden because those episodes were shown in the manga in between the two series(why they didn’t do that for the anime I don’t know).
Personally I would also recommend watching shippuden episodes 127-128 right before episodes119-120. Functionally it would serve the same purpose as the other two episodes and would give a bit more buildup for certain events. But it's not the canonical placement of them and will introduce you to certain things a bit sooner than you otherwise would, so just do whatever you think is best.
Also, regardless of what order you watch it in, I recommend stopping at 19:36 (hulu version) on episode 128 for reasons I can’t discuss until much much later. You won’t be missing anything I just think removing it will make a later scene slightly more impactful.

Enter the Akatsuki, one of the best villain teams in all of anime.

Kakashi: I have mastered over a hundred Jutsu and beaten Zabuza.
Itachi: I can control anime time.
Kakashi: … F--K!

Itachi always struck me as odd he never acted like a mass murderer (Kimberly) I always found it odd that he fought hard but it nagged at me remember what Asuma said “funny coming from a guy who murdered his entire clan.” Something to keep in mind

The genjutsu that Itachi used is called Tsukuyomi. Tsukuyomi-No-Mikto is the Japanese god of the moon, deity of order and beauty and estranged brother-husband of the sun goddess Amaterasu, he spends eternity chasing her across the sky.
