Obviously Nukite is superior. What I want to know is which fingers can Raikiri beat, tie with, or the least amount of fingers it would need to beat it.

I can see raikeri matching four fingers ,however kunai raikeri should technically match higher levels of nukite (less fingers)but not sure what is the least number of fingers it can match ,maybe two .

how can we know but power difference is huge because :

Sasuke chidori barely pierced 4 Raikage body whose body durability is inferior to 3 Raikage.

Nukite pierced whole 3 Raikage body like butter.

Probably 4 fingers, not any less though.

only w/ plot could raikiri/chidori possibly tie 4 fingers.

it can never beat it.

kakashis jutsu represents ingenuity, while the raikages jutsu represents maximization.

The wank is so real with this statement.

Anyway. Raikiri only beats 4 fingers, and even then it may not.

It probably doesn't even beat 4 fingers. would be the equivalent to 5 finger Nukite or Raikiri/Chidori (in the sense that he's using his whole hand), Ay is using his entire hand and its cutting power is still enough to slice off his arm with no momentum behind it. I doubt Raikiri or Chidori is doing that so they're probably far behind Nukite. Real far.

I doubt it beats 4 fingers let alone the other three.

Honestly don't see Raikiri going past 5 fingers. 4 fingers at BEST but that's extremely doubtful for it to tie with.

Any lower is an obvious Kakashi is losing his entire arm as he clashes.

Even 3 fingers would destroy Raikiri

I can agree that 4 Finger Nukite>Raikiri based on , but not based on this statement. There is no such thing as 5 finger Nukite because the power is dependent on the number of fingers making contact with the target. Your thumb never makes contact with the target when jabbing like that thus it'd only be 4 fingers.

4 Fingers is probably stronger than Chidori and Raikiri simply because Raikage can put more strength behind his thrust though.

not certain about four finger, but three finger nukite is far superior.

Yep, was about to say the strength of the Raikage is the reason his Nukites have such power. Based on jutsu power alone I'd say Sandaime's 3 finger nukite doesn't even have feats to put it above Raikiri in terms of penetrative power, seeing how it only cut rubber and rocks, but obliterated them due to strength.

Raikiri doesn't have feats on that level. The only version of Raikiri that has cut through multiple large rocks at once is Raikiri Kunai, which is more penetrative than the original Raikiri. 3 Fingered Nukite can easily run through multiple Doton Walls (more durable than boulders) and through malleable rubber.

Why would Raikiri Kunai be more penetrative than the original Raikiri? It's the same exact shape manipulation but contains far less chakra so I don't see how you're coming to this conclusion. Chidori put on a blade=Chidori. Kunai shouldn't be any different when it comes to Raikiri. The only way you can come to such a conclusion is if you are simply assuming Raikiri's lack of feats is evidence of its lack of ability to be as strong as a derived ability. Pretty sure any Raiton sword can cut right through steel seeing how needles can penetrate 5mm of steel in the manga [ ], both 3 fingered Nukite and Raikiri>>>Raiton sword. Steel>>boulders in terms of pound for pound durability/density. Since we are talking penetrative power the force behind the jutsu should be irrelevant here, moving 3 fingered Nukite sluggishly slowly through the boulders would cut through them like butter as it passes, just like Raikiri would. Sandaime's feat just looks more impressive because of his sheer power. But in terms of genuine penetrative power nothing puts 3 finger Nukite at Kunai Raikiri level or Chidori penetrating v1 Ay level. Malleable rubber is a bad representative of a feat for a penetrative force since penetrative force is by far the most effective measure against it.
