It is stated multiple times that the Kabutowari can break through any defense, so why does no member of the alliance pick it up after Jinin is sealed by Sai? The Executioner's blade, Samehada, Kiba (lightning swords), and Hiramekarei (in possession of Chojuro) are all put to good use by the Alliance, but they just seem to forget about the helmet splitter.

It might be a huge plot hole, but since it can break any defense, it would make short work of Madara's fan and Susanoo technically.

Thoughts?

substitution is a low level trick used to get away or dodge and the powerscale of the manga is above such jutsu

listed as an e rank tech.....
Remember what Zetsu said? If one person has a stone and another a shuriken, if the person throwing the shuriken is unskilled and the person with the rock is an expert, the rock thrower will win.

Morals: Even the simplest techs can be the most useful and don't judge it by it's rank.

A Rasenshuriken is useless if a substitution has been prepared and used.

because it is a huge weapon and takes power and skill and their is no one who can weild it properly
Kakashi was using the Executioner's blade, and Omoi is now using the lightning blades...

Kakashi could definitely wield the Kabutowari since he used the Executioner's Blade. That blade is easily taller than most characters in the universe.

kakashi need to two hand the exicutioners blade ....and the sword your talking about is way heaver then that kakashi could never weild it properly its the weight ot the weapon that give it its defense breaking power one said is a huge axe and the other a blunt hammer used together it cuts defenses

and omoi is use to swords so he can use those light weapons and kakashi has sharingan so im sure he has copied swordmanship b4 in his years on the battle feild but sharingan cant copy muscle strenghth

If you see my post right after that one, I said that it would also be possible for Guy to. He has immense physical power, and could open a few gates if needed. I also did not include Killer Bee since he already has Samehada, but he has the strength and swordsmanship level to wield the Kabutowari

im not so sure about this, sasugay used two tomoe to copy lees speed, which is just as unique to lee as muscle strength is to any person. the sharingan probably acts as steroids too so u can get the same amount of muscle stregth in a week and a half! i want the sharingan!
