... On the Third Raikage's body?
...On the Six Paths of Pain?
...On Kakuzu?
...On Sasori?

Since it works by shutting down the chakra pathways, would it affect them?
Note: I am not saying that any Hyuuga shown so far will or wont beat said characters. This is just a rethorical question.

I honestly think that would not affect Pain, since it works by obstructing the chakra pathways on the body, shutting them down and killing him. The Paths are already dead and they received their chakra via their "pierciengs" (black rods) straight from Nagato via wireless.

Well 3rd raikage, first they have to pierce the armor

I doubt it can work on 6POP

Should be able to work on Kakazu

Unless they go for the strings themselves, attacking Sasori's main body would be wasted effort

Gentlefist works on everyone except pain because he's dead, and the Black rod works like chakra transceiver which is impossible to break it through because it was sticked inside his body.

And why would any of these people let a hyuga touch them anyway knowing their abilities?

Well the Gentlefist has the ability to destroy Chakra makes the Raiton armor vanish. And the gentle fist blocks his Chakra points and makes internal damage (damage on his organs), so having a hard body is no advantage.

The Gentle Fist isn't working on the Third Raikage with his Raiton Armor and durable body.

The Paths of Pain are controlled by chakra flowing into the black rods. They have no chakra network to shut down.

It would work on Kakuzu.

For Sasori, it would only work if they attacked his organic core as that is the source of his chakra.

Yes to all except pain, in the end, Raikage's thick skin is irrelevant as gentle fist attacks the insides, so his defenses don't matter. From genins, to chunnins, to Jonins, to Kages, gentle fist will have the same impact on all of them.

Sasori has a living core, that weird cylinder heart thing, attacking that w/ gentle fist would do damage.

Kakuzuz would get hurt too, no reason he wouldn't.

Raiton armor doesn't provide defense, it only causes the body to speed up it's functions. As I said above, no matter how durable a person's body is, gentle fist works equally on everyone due to the simple fact that the inner organs, as Kakashi said, can not to be trained to become stronger.

The Third Raikage is the textbook example of how dangerous the Gentle Fist really is. Lol
But Kakuzu's body is literally a ball of strings... He does not posess a standart anatomy with its chakra points...

So you're telling me that.

You know what gentle fist does
And you selected the people to be the targets

And you couldn't come to any answer yourself?

Idk what to say... Dumb?

Lol, What?

Ay's Raiton Armor protected him from Sasuke's Chidori and only got a scratch [ ]. Saying it doesn't provide defense is ridiculous.

For a Gentle Fist attack to work, the chakra actually has to make its way into the target's tenketsu and shut it down. The chakra from the attack isn't going to make its way through the armor.

Third Raikage: Yes, the attack doesn't directly damage his outer shell which is tough, but instead attacks him on the inside.

Six Paths of Pain: No, they are corpses being directed via rods. Now its debatable whether they could disrupt the rods. However, the best case would be a temporary stun akin to a leg that's fallen asleep.

Kakuzu: If they were to hit his chakra points it should work. The problem is he uses the hearts of multiple people. This could entail that his chakra network is highly unusual as his own body is mostly a mix of threads. However, benifit of the doubt says yes. He just may be more resilient due to his odd body construction.

Sasori: No, his body is just the tiny barrel stuffed into the doll chest. Hardly any chakra network to work with. Gentle Fist would kill him through the damage to his heart before it shut down his chakra network.
