People seem to be bringing the fact that Itachi didn't want to fight Jiraiya because he didn't want to cripple Konoha. I disagree. I think Kishimoto pulled the good guy card out late into the series' development.


What did Itachi actually do to help Konoha?

He did not stop Pain.

He did not kill Orochimaru.

He distracted Jiraiya to get to Naruto.

People say his statement about Jiraiya is false because he did not want to hurt him. Okay?

Why did he use Tsukuyomi on Kakashi then? Kisame was surprised Kakashi was still alive. Without Tsunade healing him he might not be anymore. If Itachi was a good guy, why did he maim Kakashi like that? He had -NO- way of knowing Tsunade can heal him.

So he does not want to fight Jiraiya 'cuz he loves dat Leaf, but he mind rapes Kakashi? Doesn't make sense to me.

Also, if Itachi was so certain that he can fight Jiraiya, why did he use Amaterasu to get out of the toad's esoph agus? Clearly if he was stronger he wouldn't need to damage his eyesight and his health to escape. He had Kisame, too.

I agree. I believe Kishi wanted to expand the Uchiha storyline. So why not make Itachi good? Also why not introduce some more characters with sharingan? XD

So in the end, this thread isn't even about Itachi, it's about Kishi again! XD

Well considering his partner Kisame is dead serious with being loyal he might get a taste of samehada's fangs if he acted out of line :p

Well Kishi created Itachi, didn't he? :)

Kisame was there on both occasions, though.

That toads @ss wasn't prepared for itachi.

You are the wackest fan boy/girl on NB atm so congratulations :snick:
OT: You may be on to something but it is clear to most thinking members of this sight that Itachi doesn't make statements about power that aren't true. He also told Kisame he would have trouble with Guy and we all know Guy could've kicked Itachi's azz wit 8 gates. Jaraiya is the guy that took out multiple paths of Pein without knowing his powers or the nature of the Rinnegan's powers. People try to say Itachi is superior to Pein because he helped seal Nagato but even Kabuto stated that the reason he was sealed was because his movements were so slowed and deteriorated. If Itachi faced the Six Paths of Pein he'd die, simple as that; but it really doesn't matter who is stronger because they are both dead. The only true shinobi left in the series is death, he be sneaking around and capturing souls and there is no one to stop him except maybe Orochimaru which makes him the god of Narutoverse. So suck on it bitches.

Seriously? So he was supposed to do straight battle with Kakashi? He needed to put him in a coma in order to make it look serious. He even took it easy on Kurenai by using a simple genjutsu reversal, he could have used a stronger one to one shot her.

he was keeping kisame in play the whole time. kakashi even questioned why he didn't let him live.

A double agent has to be a bit convincing.
