**** all that Kaguya, Rikudo, Indra bullshit. Were here to discuss Itachi. Were speaking on a real ass ninja. On topic though, I don't think people fully realize how respectively overpowered and broken Itachi's genjutsu capabilities really are... Namely one technique in particular; The Dusk Crow Genjutu.
The Nightmare Realm
Were discussing a genjutsu that requires absolutely no eye contact, no point of a finger, seemingly, nothing. Itachi can quite simply place anyone under this genjutsu, with no indication of even performing the jutsu, and perfectly replicate reality so that the victim wouldn't even know they were put in a genjutsu. And as you may or may not know, the very first step in even attempting to break out of a genjutsu is realizing you're in one; which would be nearly impossible in this scenario. Aside from a very few [Experienced Dōjutsu users, Perfect Jinchūriki, and elite level Sensors] no one is safe from this. If prompted, Itachi could simply utilize this near undetectable genjutsu and then swiftly finish his lifeless opponent with any means necessary.
A truly broken technique, well, shinobi altogether. Kishimoto had no choice but to make Itachi a pacifist and hold him back in every fight.
Many people believe that Itachi placed Naruto in his genjutsu
People also chose to believe that Naruto was cought in Itachi's genjutsu via the sharingan implanted within the crow [

. This couldn't possibly be the case, as Naruto wouldn't of been able to command his clones from within a genjutsu; and neither would they have appeared within Itachi's genjutsu world either [

when Naruto was already caught within the genjutsu. The important thing to note with this is, when Naruto was released from the genjutsu, there wasn't any feathers on the floor [
