It's not that. GSB did not -absorb- Hirudora, but Hirudora still had to tear through it.
If you shoot a bullet directly at a man or put a wall in front of him the results are different
.
It doesn't change the fact that the one used on Kisame had a bigger explosion, created more energy, and was bigger from the moment it was formed. All that not having the intent to kill and it tearing through GSB first only proves that Gai could use a stronger one, not that the one he used on Madara broke Susanoo and was superior to the one used on Kisame.
That's your opinion. Jutsus can differ in strength. You can put more chakra behind it.
Not every Rasengan used by Naruto since Part 1 is the same, for example.
When I said that I meant it didn't make the attack any weaker than what we saw it as in the manga, as in its end explosion. After it tore through GSB.
The Hirudora used against Madara had already traveled by the time it was shown. The first comparison is between a Hirudora that has not yet been launched and one that has already hit.
Shockwaves can mostly be explained by it being used near the ocean, which has a current by itself. That, coupled with Hirudora's created whatever wind the Leaf shinobi had to brace against.

was fired.
Yamato explained that the shockwaves were nothing but the energy that Hirudora expels once its been used and he stated it'd spread around the surrounding area. Whether or not ocean currents helped this or not doesn't change the fact there were was
no energy spread around the surrounding area when it was used on Madara.
I already explained that. Water, GSB, Sharks, intent to kill. They all have their role.
Also, the size of the explosion should not be used to determine a jutsu's strength. Kishimoto doesn't draw his scans thinking about people who debate on some fansite. Some explosions are bigger to make a point.
Water, Intent to Kill, and GSB only show that Gai has the potential to create a stronger one while he is in Gates mode. Not that the one he used against Madara was indeed superior. Cause size of Hirudora, size of its explosion, and its energy output disagree with that.
Bijuu Dama disagrees. Deidara's bombs disagree. Explosion size for a jutsu like this can be used to determine its strength. Hirudora starts off as a bunch of air pressure (Before its fired) then it compresses itself and blows up on command releasing a concussive explosion.
If the tiger is smaller from the start, that means less air pressure to be compressed which means a weaker blast.
I fail to see how you or anyone else believes the one used on Kisame was weaker despite it being bigger than the one used on Madara in terms of its explosion and the tiger's size before and during it being fired, and it having more energy output.
I fail to see how you or anyone else think Hirudora (A blast of air pressure created by a super fast punch), is as strong as a concentrated blast of lightning that flattened a large hill/small mountain.
