Both are strategical fighters and things like accidentally walking on a kuni/marked areas or looking into an opponents eyes is not happening.

Accidents are how battles are won in high speed battles such as this, minato defeated tobi and if we are going to talk about a strategic fighter tobi is a prime example.

The fact is if minato covers the mass in markings he can move all over the battle field in a blink of an eye, and his kunai protects him from even attacks as powerful as tailed beast bombs.

Are suggesting that itachi should simple stay in one spot with susanoo on? How long will that battle strategy work.

Well no duh he's a hokage , he's not a joke of course itachi needs MS on him. But honestly that can literally be countered by itachi stepping out of range of the markings and deflecting the kunai and not letting them get behind him.

The only people fast enough to do that are A, Naruto and tobi.

you guys make it sound like Itachi can stay in Susano'o all day, he can stay in it for like 10 mins MAX (i doubt even 5) so Minato just has to dodge Sword of Totsuka for 10 minutes and than take down completely tired blind Itachi

And ppl think minato has infinite chakra for FTG

What part? Him taking a step back? No sh*t I can do it myself... And the kunai thing is no problem for him he's one of the best kunai throwers in the series

I was thinking that but itachi's susanoo sword wuld cut the chakra lines and dystroy the puppets. Anyways I don't think sasori has anything to counter susanoo... But idk what u might thinkin so
Plz reply =P

I thinking that itachi could lose because of the traps and poison kinda like sasuka did when she was fighting him but then again itachi too smart just rush someone in a fight, but then again it could work because itachi doesnt spam susanoo like sasuke does. I really wasnt saying that he could beat itachi but if fought him smart and didnt give him time to use susanoo anything could happen

Well by that logic the fight never starts because minato is under genjutsu :rolleyes:
I dont consider tobi as a strategical fighter he is a blitz type fighter
and katon destroys seals and itachi would just avoid tagged area minato uses kuni for a reason it gives him more field mobility and its more efficient then having to manually tag the ground/area.

O wow U_U.


You understand minato surrounds his opponents with seals right. How easily this can requires some imagination.

He should be able to pretty much stay in the air and spam the ground beneath him.

Good Point.... they talk abt minato using FTG all over the battle ground all the time but never mention abt the chakra that has to be used.... But we always here that if Itachi uses susanoo he would be exhausted and blind afterwards

Easy way for Minato to finish Itachi. He creates a barrier to block Itachi inside like he says and shows here against Kyubi:
You must be registered for see images
You must be registered for see images
Then he teleports himself elsewhere living Itachi alone who will die later

It would be a good point if it wasn't for the fact the he would use FTG to clear battlefields within moments in a war that konoha should have lost if not for him.

He can counter this with his own kunai... Not genius knowledge. Minato wuld probably use FTG to get around so that wuld kill that strategy cuz itachi wuldnt be dumb enough to let him set up

Ftg is meant to be spammed o_O

That's the whole point of

You must be registered for see images


"everyone throw these kunais at the enemy at the same time"
"don't even blink your eyes not even for a second"

He can spam them it at least 50 times and even more cause after that he went on to help kakshi and rin. o_O

for a one on one he has enough ftg teleportation o_O

It would be a good point if it wasn't for the fact the he would use FTG to clear battlefields withing moments in a war that konoha should have lost if not for him.

this too ^ o_O

FTG kunais are not attacks to be countered, they massively restrict the area that his enemy can move in.

Itachi deflects a kunai, it is still going to land near him, and while itachi is deflecting the numerous kunai thrown at once minato is placing seals on the ground with his bare hands or placing it on leafs and letting them blow in the wind.

The fact is once itach is surrounded by seals he is bassically surrounded by minato's and if minato manages to get a seal on the ground which is within the susanoo it's over, minato will strike in an instant even before a tsukuyomi is activated.

Itachi is better off using up as much of his chakra as possible to engulf the the surrounding area in amaterasu and then use what chakra he has left to control it's intensity so that he can try and escape.

Not only does this method wreck the users stamina but it only buys him time.

Meh minato should just use SBT to teleport the genjutsu sword if itachi chooses to use it on him.
