1. He can extend his tendrils as far as he chooses. The distance between him and Choji was hugeIt is that time of the month again.....*sigh*
Why would Kakuzu using tendrils to bind Kakashi make him vulnerable? Because:
1. Kakuzu has to be extremely close to Kakashi

2. Kakashi shits on Kakuzu within this distance with lightning wolf. It could close the distance between Kakashi and Pain in an instant

Kakuzu is toast in that distance
Wind mask is dodged, or tanked with low to zero damage, like in canon.

. That's not what one would consider 'extremely close'.2. Can Kakashi even use lightning wolf in a straight line if his arm is pointing down? The DB says he controls it with his arm movements, meaning it goes however he swings his arm around. If his arm is facing the floor then it won't be moving towards Kakuzu. And anyways, 'it covered the distance in an instant' means jack when it didn't surprise or blitz anyone. It was one panel to the next, and you can't quantify the time frame of a few panels. It has no speed feats at all, so don't act like it's some unavoidable attack smh. And what @bold? If Kakuzu has the wind mask on him like he did the time he caught Kakashi

then the Lightning Beast gets negged with the Futon Blast and Kakashi ends up dying from the Katon+Futon, which would've happened had Yamato+Naruto not saved him with FRS+Suiton.This guy.. Kakashi would've died if Shikamaru didn't save them. Tendrils 'didn't do shit' because Kakashi had help from Shikamaru. Had Shikamaru failed, Kakashi would've been dead. And in that scan he had the intent to steal Kakashi's heart, that does not mean that Kakuzu will do that here given he hasn't lost any hearts vs Kakashi. So he goes for the kill via puncturing his brain. @bold, Kakashi got blitzed from ~2 meters and admitted his speed wasn't on the level of dodging something like that. The entire argument was Kakuzu being able to blitz Kakashi with Tendrils while Kakashi is dodging the large scale AOE attacks, so I'm not sure what you're trying to say here since you seem to be agreeing. And rofl, how many Raiden's can Kakashi do before he's out of chakra, because that's a Kage Bunshin and 2 Raikiri's. Kakashi isn't sustaining that. Not to mention, something like thisTendrils couldn't do shit here

But sure Tendrils can kill Kakashi. Any version of Kakuzu's tendrils except his butterfly mode is dodged at a mid to far range. Kakuzu's butterfly mode tendrils are cut through with raiden.

can't be countered by Raiden's small scale.What if Kakuzu doesn't know what's happening behind the Earth Wall? His Raiton Mask does and so does any other mask that's outside of Kakuzu. Not to mention, even if Kakashi conceals himself via hiding like a mole or clone substitution he still has no options when it comes to taking Kakuzu out.Earth wall is a perfect counter to Kakuzu's elemental techniques. Due to their large aoe, Kakuzu has no idea what is going on to the opponent in front of him. Like how he had no idea Kakashi had survived his wind mask combo with Hidan.
Smh stupid strategy but we can see where it gets you. And again, you're wrong in the sense that the Raiton mask can fire Gian at Kakashi while he's forming the earth wall and while he's going underground. Either way he dies from the Gian because he wanted to go underground, or he dies from the Katon+Futon because he chose not to go underground. Rofl at him going for Kakuzu though, last time he did this against Pein and caught his foot he got raped via ST, vs 30% Itachi he straight up got dodged, against Kakuzu he ends up getting punctured with Tendrils just like Naruto's clones were going poof one by one while getting punctured with tendrils. Terrible strategy and it will end up being Kakashi's demise. Good for Kakashi that he's fast, but because he's using the strategies your dumbass is setting up for him he's failing vs either Gian or Katon+Futon, your choice.Kakuzu tries a large scale technique>Will lose sight of kakashi>Kakashi makes an earth wall>Immediately goes underground before the wall is destroyed. Read and don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say Earth wall would tank Kakuzu's techniques. I said Kakashi makes an earth wall AND will go underground.
Kakuzu would have no idea where Kakashi is at while underground, so any technique would be a waste of his chakra. Kakashi could pop up anywhere he wants. First time he could go for Kakuzu himself, and next time he goes for whatever he wants. Gian is humiliated like it was in canon. Kakashi outran it from god knows how many meters away. Gian ain't shit.
