In regards to lightning armor being made of chakra, and gentle fist attacking tenketsu with chakra,

would the 8 trigrams do damage to someone who had lightning armor active?

would the combination of a physical and a chakra strike pierce through, or would it be negated by the lightning armors properties?

The whole point of GF is to negate chakra made substance so yes GF would easily prevail

thinking logically, you have to actually make contact with your chakra to the tenketsu.
how is this possible with lightning armor active?

just the 8 trigrams techniques

Well I dont know would 8 trigrams 64 palms work but GF attack whose purpose is to actually destroy raiton armour will have easy time in that.I think they would first need to negate armour in order for 8 trigrams to work.

Chakra cloaks don't defend against Gentle Fist as shown by Hinata in Chapter 616.

GF can alter chakra based substances by inserting their own chakra into it

It has nothing to do with hitting a victims tenketsu, that’s only to close or boost said tenketsu

Gentle fist would be useless considering you have to touch the user first.

Alter? Alter what, garbage post? Nothing close to that is stated or this could be another alternate pretty trash nonsense fact made up by genius intellect broken intellectual : uhmussdytyy.

OT:- Gentle fist wouldnt penetrate, I researched it a bit, raiton armor is not pure chakra , it is physical energy melded , no wonder chidori couldnt pierce through fully. When hyuga's emit chakra from thier energy portals, the portals containing physical energy also gets emitted rendering it a physical Attack which can damage physical things like internal organs. Raiton armor's chakra penetrated lets say, still the physical energy being emitted would be blocked by the physical energy of the Raiton ArmouR.

Unless Lighting armor was stated to block Chakra from passing like Kidomaru's golden armor, it would not tank the Gentle Fist.

A explicitly said to sasuke " to be able to touch me when I'm in raiton armour is really something" so obviously,you're not supposed to be able to touch him normally in battle. Cloak is different from armour. Lightening cloak would tank gentle fist.

The thread is about if Lighting armor can tank the Gentle Fist or not. We are talking about an ability vs an ability, not a person vs a person. So I am not sure what you are even talking about. Give Sasuke Gentle Fist when he touched the Raikage and he would've severely damaged him.

Evidence?

Raiton Armor isnt just lightning armour; its the activated body added with lightning armor according to databook.

Essentially lightning works by vibrating chakra so lightning armour vibrates chakra at a high frequency while flowing it around the body, it's added effect is numbing on contact. Chidori pierced it because it also vibrates chakra as a higher frequency, higher than lightning armour thus bypassing it.

It all boils down to can the GF user by pass or disturb the vintstion of the Raikage's chakra. I'm not aware of any Gf jutsu that may be able to do that although Hanabi Hime likely could.

However based on lack of GF jutsu displaying such feats I'll have to say no it can't.
