No he couldn't have taken out Akatsuki easily, Zetsu was always watching everyone and reporting to Nagato and Obito so if Itachi tried to kill Kisame then he will be hunted down by Akatsuki and killed. He can used 4 MS jutsus and each ghost a lot of chakra and cause him pain and that hesitation can cost him.

And Kabuto could have just ended Edo Tensei to neg Edo Itachi but plot deem he didn't. Kabuto only forced his way in the war to get Sasuke and Sasuke was right infront of him so he could have easily coffin Edo Madara, Edo Kimimaru, and Edo Chiyo then end Edo Tensei and at the start of the fight Kabuto was dodging all Attacks with his sensory ability so no it wouldn't have ended the moment Itachi got there. Itachi isn't beating Edo Madara and Edo Kimimaru and Edi Chiyo team won't be that easy either. Edo Itachi would use up all his chakra before being able to seal Madara or Kimimaru team who have Chiyo who can control bodies and Kimimaru can make bones come out from right under you and all over the battlefield as he did against Gaara then move inside them. Edo Itachi have less chakra than alive Itachi and it doesn't instantly refill as it took Edo Minato time to replenish his chakra.

His other weakness being his MS which cost a lot of chakra per jutsu, caused him to go blind the moment he awakened MS and makes him blind faster when he uses MS jutsus (as Sasuke did), cause him physical pain after using MS jutsus (Susanoo takes both eyes and does more pain as it aches every cell in the body as Sasuke put it).

Madara was nerfed more after he became Juubi Jin lol they took away his Susanoo which he used pre-JJ with 1 eye, no wood clones, no wood jutsus, no katon jutsus, no Rinnegan jutsus such as Deva path, Asura path, Animal path, or Pretha path, had 5 of his TSBs FTG to Konoha. Naruto was nerfed a lot as well but the Madara thing was annoying since why give him the Juubi then not make him use jutsus he shown to use?

What could would have throwing other edo tenseis at Itachi have done? Itachi would've negged them with totsuka.

Pretty much. In all of his fights, he never gave his all. His face expression never changed. He never reached his full potential. Kishimoto gave him many, many handicaps and despite those handicaps, his superiority was apparent in each and every one of the panels. Blindness, illness, pacifism, Will of Fire... Those are all the reasons we never saw him reach his full potential. His character was built in a manner that he exhibits a large potential but never actually uses it.

Never said Kabuto would throw Edo's at Itachi, I said he could coffin up the Edo's not sealed then undo Edo Tensei which would undo Itachi's Edo and Kabuto beats him neg diff while those he coffin can be resummoned afterwards. Plus you act like Totsuka would do anything to Madara who can just use his own Susanoo blade to knock Totsuka away or Deva path to pull it away and use it on Itachi.

Nagato could barely move, he was nerfed the most.
I know I Itachi is all great and all but he can never solo every Akatsuki member. That's just pure BS

If Itachi didnt have the nerf then his character wouldnt have been written to be so powerful.

Lasts against someone who has nearly 5.....

Yes very nerfed indeed.

He is a mid-teir character.

But think about it. Only Nagato is questionable. The rest would be dealt with, most likely.

You act like Madara can touch Itachi despite Yata mirror.

Yet his ability is limited, and Madaras abilty isn't unless he runs low on chakra

Thats the whole point of this thread. That he didn't do what he could do; because of plot restriction.


Lol right. He couldnt do shit, he was always someone's pawn.

He couldnt even dare to face Obito.

He failed at everything.
