There is great reason why Raikage is head of the shinobi alliance. reasons that Mifune gave that he is all around the best canidate because he was quick to find a resolution to the issue that Madara presents and one key reason is because his authority over the 8 Tails. all Kages are considered the BEST shinobis of their villages and each of them could either be leader of the alliance but Raikage was considered and choosen as the best pick and no other Kage disagreed except Tsuchikage complained a lil bit.]
Being appointed the titular head of the joint shinobi alliance does'nt translate into strength. Tsunade is the leaf's hokage, are you implying she's stronger than everyone else in the leaf, including naruto?? Fail argument( sorry). There probably are others in the joint shinobi army in the same way who are stronger than the raikage.
also Tsunade is the strongest in the Leaf second to Naruto. Naruto is by far surpassed all before him and proved that during the Pain attack but Tsunade is still the strongest after him with much experience, strength, superior chakra control, knowledge, the slug, and medical ninjutsu. props to the fact shes a legendary sannin, held her own agaisnt Hanzo who only lost to Pain, granddaughter of the 1st hokage.. Tsuande is the shyt dont try to play my homegirl..
anyways.....
srry about not replying to ya last paragraph dont take it as disrespect i forgot about it idk why or how and i was going to comment on it but idk i missed it..I generally appreciate a good comment/point(look at other threads) and do compliment where appropriate. However, seeing as how you have not addressed the entire last paragraph of my last post, i find that a little hard to do now.
I am not 'kidding', it was just a spar ( but an intense one at that). Not that i agree with this, but if i use your way of thinking, then if both parties were close to dying then sasuke would have used his susanoo against bee which he did not so he was'nt close to dying( disproving your statement). Of course bee was trying to run, that only proves he was'nt interested in fighting and thus removing the question of him being brought down by ametarasu.
"spar" is like a practice fight. like you said Sasuke was very close to death twice during his fight with Bee. Bee could have been turned sushi by amterasu. idk about the choice of using spar to describe that fight. Sasuke wasnt looking to spar he was trying to capture a jinchuriki. and when he was agaisnt the ropes he used amaterasu. not sasuno because he either couldnt, maybe not enough emotions was triggered to unlock it, and their was emotions mind you seeing all his friends in pain trying to support him, ooorrr he just didnt feel the need to use sasuno yet. either way fact is he didnt use sasuno, reason unknown but he just didnt and Bee did not face a Sasuke Raikage faced.
another difference is that Sasuke at the summit was more "eviler" i guess. Karin and Jugo commented that he had a darker chakra and was colder.. Sasuke was tryna massacre ppl. the emotions and fight at the summit and against Raikage unlocked or forced him to use Sasuno.
btw so we agree Bee was trying to leave. do you agree that hadnt Karin almost been crushed by the giant tentacle of the 8th and if Sasuke hadnt have cut it and give Bee a chance to escape meaning that Bee would have been captured?
your right whether its one tail or 8 tail is open to debate and i will say Raikages chakra was close to 8 tails maybe even a little bit more.Yeah, are we talking Shukaku level? Or Hachibi. That's open to debate.
Agreed.
Not necessarily, are you saying that Bee WANTS to fight his brother? Bee doesn't have negative feelings. He could have let Motoi die, kill him, or anything else like that for revenge for Motoi trying to kill him.
He could have killed Taka, Sasuke included. He almost DID twice. Why would Bee want to face up against his brother in a fight to the death?
Also, cloaked mode is different from a full Bijuu transformation. I don't see any defense the Raikage has at the moment to counter the Bijuu-Dama Ball.
Also, Bee vs. Sasuke was a "spar" as noted by the Hachibi who said "Why did you transform when the battle was under your control in the first place?"
being that i honestly believe Raikage has to be near the strength or stronger than his brother in order to be kage of his village. Raikage has to represent the village #1 go to guy. he has to be the hero if the village is in danger. every village is always scared of their jinchuriki, most of the time try to restrain them in the village, isolate them, even kill them out of fear the jinchuriki will lose control of their bijuu and attack the village. so who is in charge of the jinchuriki?! the Kage! thats why most of the times in the cases that we've seen the jinchurikis are closely related to the Kage. Minato, 4th Hokage, his wife AND his son was 9tails host. Gaara's own father sealed the 1 tails in him, Gaara's dad was Kazekage.
even if the kage is not family related they are still in full accountability of the jinchuriki. they have to be strong enough to control the jinchuriki and/or the host. the 1st Hokage portrayed the best control of tailed beasts since the SO6P. He literally collected bijuus like they were pokemons and just handed them over to other villages like nothing.
point is Raikage has to represent the strongest and his job is to be stronger than the jinchuriki and its host. and also Raikage chakra is about, around 8tails. its highly possible and he wouldnt be the first character with chakra on account Kisame reminded Neji of Naruto's chakra. and that was a clone with 30% of chakra. idk hows thats possible.
unlike most jinchurikis Bee never had negative feelings. he is the exception of how most jinchurikis feel and react to all the negativety around them. Utaka the 6tails, Gaara the 1tails even Naruto all felt angry at one point in their lives because of the mistreatment that comes from being a host. Bee didnt sweat it. so im not saying Bee hates anybody or wants to fight his bro to the death..
yes Bee almost killed Sasuke twice and whooped the whole Taka crew but fact is he was taken down by an Amaterasu. Raikage made Amaterasu look whack when he dodged it and punched Sasuke through it and attempted to leg drop through it. i think Raikage is soo bad@ss that he would slap a Tailed Beast Bomb in another direction like how they do in DBZ. lol.. ok maybe not but i can see him having a defense for it. Hell Orochimaru, and if my memory's correct, Taka and Pain did?!?! more importantly Orochimaru had a defense for it. and Raikage is way better than Oro.
"spar" is a wierd choice but yea i can see what your trying to say with what the 8tails said and all but Sasuke was not "sparring" he was aiming to disarm and contain Bee. any means neccessary.
no his opinion is validated. people have a prejudiced opinion that a ninja with a Tailed Beast in them is automatically kicking @ss which has been proven very untrue when looking at the fact that all of the jinchurikis have been beaten and/or overpowered by akatsuki members. most of them have been captured!! alive i might add. its harder to capture a powerful person alive than dead. ninjas who wielded incredible amount of chakra, some were able to tap into their beast powers and use it, Gaaras ultimate defense sand, Utaka bubble style, Yugito who trained with Bee in controlling her beast fully transform into it, the lava style jinchuriki, Bee beaten by amaterasu and forced to escape, all beaten!!!A prejudiced opinion against jinchurikis in general, validation denied. Oh and btw, A is probably slower than b when the full power ( NOT just the tailed cloak) of the 8 tails is used .
and btw Raikage is waaaaaay faster than Bee. again we'd have to compare speed from the fight with Sasuke cuz thats where their speeds were both noted. Suigetsu said that Bee movements couldnt be read, Sasuke saw that his movements were linear and easy to predict but it was still hard for him to follow him even with his sharingan eyes because of Bee's speed. thats why he asked for Karin to keep a track of his chakra at all times and to give a location of him at all times. Raikage however was described to be faster than a flash of light. he also could not be trailed by the sharingan eyes. and he dodged amaterasu. now mind you amaterasu burns anything that the MS eyes looks at. Raikage is faster than you looking at him with MS eyes. note that Bee did not dodge amaterasu. Bee was at full power when hit by amaterasu and did not dodge it. it was not part of Bee's plan to pretend to be hit by amaterasu and escape. Bee fully was hit, amaterasu was successful and escape wasnt enivitable until the oppurtunity came from the severed limb. but point is Bee at full power did not and/or could not dodge amaterasu where as Raikage looked like a Super Saiyan 2 doing it. lol nah on a sidenote that really reminded me of DBZ when he did the after image. anyways i think Raikage definently wins in the speed department.
