I really don't understand why people seem to think Jiraiya can solo Itachi & Kisame. That's idiodic to me.
Agree
Itachi never admitted he was completey inferior to Jiraiya. Do you know why Itachi & Jiraiya fled from their sence with Jiraiya?
You mean Itachi and Kisame.
Not sure what a sence is either.
1: Itachi, being a Genius of course. Chose the perfect decision in the most appropriate situation to withdraw & leave the village.
Agree
If he & Kisame would of stayed & fought Jiraiya do you even know what would happen? Reinforcments all around the Leaf Village would of came in Jiraiya's aid responding to the fight happening inside the village & Itachi & Kisame would end up fighting everyone in Konoha.
Agree
Itachi & Kisame cannot defeat the entire Leaf Village all at once.
I wouldn't be surprised if they did, most of the village is just a bunch of kunai throwing fodders.
Wouldn't be surprisded although considering he solo-ed the Leaf Village's most powerful clan all by himself when he was like 16...
Disagree, it was all assassination together with Obito.
Only a fool would stay & fight on enemy territory.
Agree
2: Itachi & Kisame were only responding to the hype that he has heard about Jiraiya considering Jiraiya is a famous ninja. Sannin after all.
Agree
But that doesn't mean sh-t seeing how he solo-ed the strongest Sannin in Part 1 with one technique... again WHILE he was like 16!
Disagree, Orochimaru is just too weak to fight a genjutsu user, can't even escape the most simple of genjutsus.....
It's just his weakness.
& to even compare Itachi Uchiha to Jiraiya is just mere disrespect to his reputation.
Uhm, hell no. Jiraiya's reputation is far better than Itachi's. His rep in power is just a bit higher than Jiraiya's due to his MS techniques with extreme drawbacks.
Jiraiya almost died trying to stop 4 Tailed Naruto!! While on the other hand a sick, eroding body Orochimaru easily fended him off.
This is retarded, Orochimaru was trying to take Naruto and use him, and not to mention Orochimaru could virtually shapeshift himself to fight him, along with summoning thousands of snakes to try to fend him off. Jiraiya tried to come in to stop him from entering a 5-9 tailed state, not try to kill him or anything like that.
Orochimaru even stated he would of finished Naruto if it werent for his body reaching is his limit. (Body rejecting him)
The best Orochimaru could do is try to place a curse mark on Naruto or try to take his body, he can't do more than that.
& again who solo-ed Orochimaru in part 1? How does that work..?
Well certainly it doesn't work with A>B>C logic.
Jiraiya can't even defeat Itachi point blank. Throwing in Kisame as well would be an absolute overkill.
Actually Jiraiya is equal or stronger in most categories with Itachi, except for Genjutsu and Uchiha techniques (Obviously).
Just a few MS Techniques from Itachi and Itachi has already exhausted himself. Jiraiya in SM could easily win in every category except for Genjutsu against Itachi.
But logically Itachi + Kisame vs Jiraiya would not be a pretty sight, Jiraiya would get destroyed, unless his summoned turtle is also magnificent at fighting.
Sh-t back in Part 1 Itachi was using Amatersu just to clear a wall! That says something about his stamina back then.
Doesn't say anything, all it says is that he is able to use Amaterasu.
Either way, he had no choice, he had to escape, so the only way to escape was to use Amaterasu or to pull out a Susano'o to try to destroy the wall, but that would use even more chakra.
I didn't excatly read the Manga Page before making this thread so hopefully theirs no screw ups
I just used what I remembered back then from watching it as a kid.. lol
Just had to make this point clear.
