1. How is Sasuke's immunity to poisons and the sealed container not enhancements.
2. Who is the strongest person Yamato has defeated? In fact, who has he even fought?
3. Deidara killed himself and was eternally butthurt from seeing sharingan for some reason. The only reason he survived was plot summoning Manda.
I'm not downplaying him. Sasuke has worked hard with what he had and what he was given. He just did not train as hard as Naruto.
The casket allowed Sasuke to reach CC2 which wouldn't be possible if his body wasn't enhanced. We already saw what the curse mark does.
Sasuke wanted to kill Itachi. I'm sorry. Sasuke went OD in his training during those 3 years. Dude had the best medical care on stand by if over train himself.....Kabuto & karin.
That Kirin jutsu is not something that can be easily learned and done on the first 3 tries.
Liked I said before. Sasuke and Naruto trained hard in their own ways. Sasuke had a better reason than Naruto though. Train hard to kill itachi or die PERIOD. That right there tell you that Sasuke wasn't sitting around chilling for the some drug experiment from Dr. Snake.
And nearly all of Naruto's training was "karate kid trainings". Play with the waterballon....hit the water...hit the water. All of Naruto's training was mapped out for him.
Come on...again, y'all trying to downplay Sasuke. But that's kool. The manga is about Naruto..
we don't even know what Sasuke did every did for those 3 yrs, and by all the accounts that were made in the story concerning that time, Sasuke most definitely didn't train literally every day for 3 yrs. You're making this about the total length of time Sasuke and Naruto trained when the subject is about who put more effort into their training. I don't recall seeing Sasuke nearly as exhausted as Naruto was during the FRS training.
You're definitely forgetting the fact that Naruto was constantly using shadow clones from start to finish the whole time during that training, which only means he was going on E virtually every day for a month. It certainly looked a lot more exhausting than being thrown against a bunch of hired goons or seeing what kind of tricks someone could come up with using Chidori.
SASUKE WANTED TO KILL ITACHI! OLE BOY WAS OUT TRAINING HIS ASS OFF. NOT SITTING AROUND WAITING FOR DR. SNAKE TO MAKE A NEW DRUG PILL.
Sasuke only lived during those time to train to kill Itachi. Nothing else!
