Agreed... She kept them alive for a Whole 2 mins...
1. I agree but i think we're talking about right now, not when the other Sannin were alive...
2. True if Naruto wudda fought Pain when Jiraiya fought him, he wudda been slaughtered but Naruto clearly passed him in sage mode because the old toad said that he was a perfect sage, something Jiraiya could do with all his experience and strength. And please stop blaming Naruto for Pain using his tech earlier. if he couldn't fight after that then he shudda left... Plus, i like Jiraiya, but who has he beaten??
3. I actually agree with this...
They were only given the name Legendary Sannin by Hanzo cuz they lasted longer than everybody else in that particular battle. The same Hanzo that got dragged by Nagato a couple years later... But then again he did learn how to do water style from Jiraiya so i guess he should get credit for dat too huh... But they didn't earn the name because they did some great thing and because they were stronger than an Uchiha, Uzumaki, and random mednin #2. They were given that name cuz Hanzo respected them.
2. You are right about Pain using his technique earlier, but that just means, Naruto alone did not beat Pain. A lot of shinobi helped, as they forced Pain to use that jutsu. Besides, Naruto
did lose that fight. He had already given up. He opened the gate to the 9 tailed. He would have died that instant, if it was not for the safe guard in the seal. It was pure luck, that he had it. He even had his chakra restored. Surely if any shinobi in a close combat, had some kinda safe shield mechanism to heal him and restore his chakra, when he was about to die, it would mean a huge deal, but it's not part of Naruto's powers, as it was a one time event.
Also this thread is trying to say that Naruto has surpassed Jiraya. Well surely with beast mode he has, but yet if Naruto isn't allowed to use the toads, I am trying to argue, that Jiraya can still win. This of course gives an untrue image of Narutos strength, as the toads are part of his power as well, but how else can we compare them?
Ok i really don't kno where to start with this one... Why was Oro scared of Itachi If he cant die?? He had no idea that Itachi had the sword that Oro had been looking for the totsuka... Where in the manga did it say that Oro's chakra reserves ran deeper than Sasuke's??? Sasuke doesn't burn chakra to the extent that Kakashi does and that evident in the manga.. Sasuke spammed MS tech against Raikage, Tsucikage (spelling), Mizukage, Danzo, and Kakashi all in the same day... Clearly Oro has more chakra right??
I don't think he was scared of Itachi, he just admitted, that Itachi was too strong for him. In other words, if Oro tried to take Itachis body, he couldn't and he would probably die. Besides, he would need to place a cursed seal on Itachi as well, if it should work sufficiently, and Itachi was too strong for Oro to do that.
Well, if you look at any of the fights Orochimaru was implemented in, he has never been on the verge of chakra exhaustion. Perhaps against Naruto 4 tailed, but even there, he only had to leave the battle, because his time was up, and he couldn't use his arms any longer.
Besides, the body shedding technique used by Sasuke made him run out of chakra. It clearly took a lot of chakra. How many times did we see Oro perform this jutsu, even with illness and no usable arms? Many. So it's safe to assume his chakra reserves are larger than Sasukes. Besides he is old and
extremely talented, it's only assumable that a former hokage candidate trained by the 3rd is an expert at molding chakra and reserving it to keep waste at a minimum.
Ur absolutely right that naruto @ 16 i believe w/ less fighting and info gathering experience wudda been fodder for Pain but we talkin about a around 16 year old boy vs a 50+ year old man in experience. what was Jiraiya doing at 16??? I bet it wasn't protecting the Village vs Pain, or fighting the Juubi, or Akatsuki, or Edo Kages... I ask again what has Jiraiya done?? Please pull his resume for me n tell me what he accomplished??? N again I like Jiraiya but compared to what Naruto and Sasuke's been doin, the old Sannin wouldn't make the Konoha 11... What would Jiraiya or Oro or Tsunade do against the Bijuu or Pain or Madara or hell Tobi??? Nuthin at all...
Surely if you compare Jiraya same age as Naruto, it can be assumed that Naruto has accomplished more at that age, however, this is not the topic of this thread. Besides, I believe it was about that age Naruto started his sage mode training anyway.. So he wasn't just "useless".
So what have Jiraya accomplished? He trained the 2 destined children, Nagato and Naruto. Naruto would never have become the destined child, if it was not for his hatred towards Nagato, and his ability to leave it be, and to believe in his masters words (Jirayas!!). Basically, if Jiraya had never shown up and taught Naruto, Naruto would never have gotten Sage mode, he would never have become the destined child, and he would never have completed control over Kurama.
Also Jiraya takes a large part of why Tsunade became hokage. Of course most would say it was Naruto, but if it was not for Jiraya, the situation had never happened. Jiraya knew that Naruto could have that effect on Tsunade, because he resembles Nawaki.
And just to fill another one in, Jiraya did train Minato, one of the best prodigies in shinobi history.
Should be enough?
But Jiraya is, basically, the reason for Narutos way of thinking, which is why he became the destined child. He is also one of the most important characters in the story, sadly his death was necessary for Naruto to evolve and learn hatred, so he could become the destined child, by overcoming the hatred.
dude you need to look at it again, the only reason he used sm was because he was out of kyuubi chakra... Naruto doesn't need those frogs to win, he has a tailed beast, But you're saying that jiraiya can beat naruto in kcm you're crazy. Naruto doesn't even have to use tbb when he can turn into the kyuubi!!
I don't know why you are denying manga facts. Go read it again, I wont argue with this, it's completely stupid, when you just denie pure manga facts. I am not even gonna find it for you....
The big toads are same size as Kurama, so yeah, Jiraya can handle Kurama :| We saw Minato doing this against Kurama with his yin half as well. Now it's Kurama with ½ of that power, so the giant toads can cope for some time. Mean while Jiraya can pull mass jutsu's along with Ma and Pa, one being an inescapable sound genjutsu, which he has time to perform due to the giant toads keeping Kurama busy. What can Naruto do? Besides, it's pointless telling you this. I already recognized you as a fanboy, you are just overlooking important facts, and taking the outcomes, not
what made the outcomes as they are. That is just silly...
And if what you're saying about oro is true, why is he obeying sasuke like a dog obeys his master, because sasuke could easily defeat him again, seems to me like you're the stupid one, because oro needs a new body not every 4 years, but when his body starts to decay and rot away, the Amaterasu is stronger when sasuke uses it because of the EMS. To kill sasuke now he would have to get past his tsukiyomi which he couldn't even do with itachi, but really that's all sasuke has to do is put him in a genjutsu and then use whatever move he likes on Orochimaru and yes naruto can destroy their village because the hidden rain doesn't have many earth style user one tailed beast bomb and the village is done =D
You are again denying manga facts and making things up as they are in your mind. May I ask again, how long did you read this manga? And how many times have you read through it? Oro isn't obeying anyone like a dog

how silly you are pathetic fan kid. Where is Oro now? Wonder what he is doing aren't you? Well we will see, however, even Oro has respect for shinobi, and since Sasuke revived him, he at least owes him something.
And Sasuke's amaterasu is stronger with EMS? Can you show me evidence of that please. I am quivering with expectations for that evidence..... And also do please show me Sasuke using a tsukuyomi, that could defeat an enemy.... And also when did Itachi use tsukuyomi on Oro? Never....... It was another genjutsu, in fact the same that Sasuke used to defeat Oro, when Oro was ill..... So it had nothing to do with MS...... And your argument about why it cannot destroy the village is stupid too. It's utterly meaningless... Wtf am I even discussing with out. This is pathetic.
Besides Oro cannot defeat the Juubi either, so reviving the kage's to do it is just as good for him as for anyone. Besides Oro has been saying he might have had a change of heart after seeing Kabuto. Are you even reading the chapters, or are you just bad at english and looking at the images? If you read the last 10 chapters, you could answer all your idiotic replies about Oro in this reply... It's actually so stupid I can't even believe I am answering, but the next idiotic answer I probably wont reply to. Give me some good arguments,
just once!!!! And this discussion can continue.....
