Does Ay have any good tanking feats?
He tanked a straight raikiri to the chest.
I'd give it to Ay high diff. In V1 he was able to completely destroy Juugo's v2 body, which is more durable than Gai's. On the 6th gate Gai should be able to react to ay's blows, but he wouldn't dodge them completely. If Ay manages to grab him, ligher bomb ends it easely, and if Ay uses his arm to defend himself he gets broken as it happened to Juugo.
I doubt Akasukujaku ends this, lightining armour should be enough to take the most part of it.
Oh yeah... Forgot about that...
Plus Juugo's laser beans...
Gotta give it to Ay mid high diff then...
He dodged those. He didn't tank them, nor can he tank them considering his feats against Chidori. "Tanking" Chidori is his best feat, and even then Chidori breached his armor and wounded him. Unless people think that Chidori>>The Asa Kujaku that one shotted Shoten Kisame (who should be as durable as the original I believe) or even worse, the Asa Kujaku that Gai used on the real Kisame, then it's pretty clear that he wins this.
Piercing power >>>> Explosive power when it comes to hurt a hard body.
Madara tanked EE but zetsu pierced him. Sasuke also sliced him with raikiri sword.
Kaguya tanked 9 Bijuu FRS but Kakashi's raikiri pierced her.
The bold is an assumption, 30% Kisame should be one third as durable as Kisame, or, as durable as the body used for the sacrifice of that jutsu.

Failing to completely tank Chidori isn't evidence he can take something far stronger. It not being a piercing attack isn't evidence that he can tank it either.
1. Not sure how Kaguya "tanked" those attacks, but it probably had something to do with chakra absorption since the Bijuu Chakra from Naruto's attack messed with her internal chakra, which would only be possible if his chakra made contact with her internal chakra somehow. Then there's the fact that we can apply a bit of common sense here.
-Difference between Bijuu FRS and Raikiri is massive.
-The difference between Rikudo Sasuke's Chidori and Bijuu FRS should be a bit smaller or the same.
-Naruto tanked Chidori, does that mean he can tank Bijuu FRS because "it's explosion"? I hope you don't say yes.
2. Madara didn't tank Evening Elephant. It not piercing or mangling his body doesn't mean that he tanked it when he was shown coughing blood up after Gai hit him.
Wrong. 30% Chakra. Not a clone of Kisame w/ all his stats dropped to 30%. Implying anything else without evidence is an assumption.

1- Agreed on the kaguya thing. Probably absorbed the attack.
2- One punch of EE > Zetsu's (probably chakra concentrated) hand. Madara was only hurt after getting a whole serie of 5 EE punches, the first one was tanked with only external damage (his horn broke), while zetsu destroyed his chest.
Can weaker attack pierce some things that wider=bigger=more powerful atacks cant? Yes, if they're made for piercing.
Aka kujsaku has better range, is more destructive and is wider than chidori, but that doesn't mean it would hurt Ay, since Ay was pierced by an attack that is made for piercing, nothing more. Chidori lacks a lot of things Aka kujusaku has, but it gains the abilitie to actually pierce the opponent if it gets him.
Third raikage tanks rasenshuriken. Gets defeated by a piercing tech :|
1.Chidori is a piercing attack. (huge amount of chakra focused on one point)
2.Kisame isn't even that durableYou must be registered for see linksmanaged to cut him. Piercing attacks are better for breaching anyways.
2. Already know this and I've already replied to it. So why repeat it?
Yes, weaker attacks can pierce things that a stronger attack can't damage as long as the weaker tech affects a smaller unit per area than the explosive or larger attack.
Asa Kujaku is far more powerful than Chidori, which already pierced through his armor. What reason is there to believe he'd tank a single round of Asa Kujaku let alone 2 rounds when his best feat is tanking a massively inferior technique, despite the affected surface area being much smaller? Little.
Your point? A piercing tech still has to have sufficient energy to penetrate the target, just nowhere near as much as the energy required for an explosion to do damage.
1. Addressed to.
2. He survived Hirudora. That makes him durable. More durable than Ay? No.
Not sure how many times you guys will repeat "piercing attacks are better for breaching" when it doesn't mean that he can tank any other type of attack just because it doesn't pierce.
