Well since my previous thread was closed, i decided to recreate the thread with some little modifications because it seems that some Itachi fans don't agree with me concerning Tsukuyomi especially

In this thread i'm comparing SM Jiraya to Itachi. To compare them i'll try my best to show you effectiv counters that SM Jiraya would have against Itachi and what makes me believe he would defeat him if there was a fight between them. Hope you enjoy reading :)

How SM Jiraya counters Itachi's genjutsus:

In SM, Jiraya has Pa and Ma on his shoulders all the time, which means that the use of genjutsu will be useless since they could just disturb his chakra like the partner method works. In this case, only Tsukuyomi could be a problem since it takes effect in an instant, but personally i believe that the fact that Jiraya continuously receive sennin mode chakra makes the use of even tsukuyomi useless against him:

For those who don't believe in what i said, there is still counters for Tsukuyomi that Jiraya can use like using for example. Jiraya has a large chakra pool, so using Kage Bunshins as a bet is not a problem for him. He even already has by seeing Itachi using it on Sasuke and caused by the genjutsu in question, so he would obviously be more cautious if he were to fight Itachi if he wasn't already(he must obviously have great knowledge on Sharingan judging by his experience and the fact he was able to easily dispel Itachi's Sharingan genjutsu on ).

People always fail to realise that genjutsu(in particularly tsukuyomi) isn't automatic. A direct eye contact is needed for genjutsu and even when this direct eye contact happens, Itachi still has to concentrate the chakra necessary for the genjutsu rapidely and cast the genjutsu at that exact same moment. Furthermore, tsukuyomi is a MS jutsu, so Itachi has to activate MS to even begin to think about using tsukuyomi. Itachi can't cast tsukuyomi with Sharingan let alone without it. If Jiraya notices that Itachi turned his Sharingan into MS, again, he would be more cautious. Also, tsukuyomi is even described in the databook as a , so if Jiraya uses long range attacks and fight carefully, i don't see why he would be trapped by tsukuyomi

How Jiraya counters Amaterasu:

Jman already has . So he would be really cautious if he were to fight Itachi. Contrary to the popular belief, amaterasu is a that appears instantly withing a certain range, and from there begins the target(it's the reason why eventhough it almost appeared on Raikage, he had time to shunshin out of the way) and depending on where the user focuses. What i mean by that is that if a target is outside the range of amaterasu, it would be easier for him to notice it and therefore counter it with something in his arsenal. Sasuke for example was able during a while and use a to counter the jutsu. Killer-Bee also used a subtitution when he had no knowledge on the jutsu, and with knowledge he has shown that it was even able before he uses Amaterasu(which shows btw that Amaterasu needs some time of concentration to be released).

Jman with his superior speed/taijutsu and sensing abilities could do the same if not better. Jiraya who even already has knowledge on the jutsu, also has natural counters for this like (burning a KB is useless). Even without knowledge in part1, he directly created a counter for it in an instant with a

In Sage Mode, he even has sensing abilities, and we've seen that a sensor like Nagato could by noticing the pressure. Therefore, he can attack the user before he even uses it like Killer-Bee did. Since Itachi needs some concentration at that moment like we see on the same pic, Jiraya could take advantage of this like Bee did, and Itachi could be killed by for example, or even or by this:

How does Jiraya counter Susanoo:

Gaara helped us to know that . Well, Jiraya has a perfect counter for this with (Jiraya even said it was ). It would totally make sink Itachi in this position with or without his Susanoo

If they are fighting in an enclosed area, Jiraya could capture him(Susanoo or not) in like he already did in part1. He can also create an opening to capture him in the like he did against Pain

Sasuke made us understand because of sound vibration. Well, Pa and Ma have (able to paralyse Pain summons). With this jutsu, it would be easy for SM Jiraya to paralyse Itachi and finish him either with his or or even something else in his arsenal.

We also know thanks to Kabuto, that , so Pa and Ma use this and he is done for:

Well when the anime itself has said that Itachi can go toe to toe with Jiraiya... what's all the fuss about??

It has been clearly mentioned that Itachi = Jiraiya

Since Ma and Pa are on his shoulders doesn't that automatically cancel any genjutsu in any form (including Tsukiyomi). There purpose is to collect and transfer nature chakra that then transfers to Jiriaya. He will be constantly receiving nature chakra which disrupts his own since it needs to be balanced (otherwise it takes over). So basically his chakra is in permanent disruption as long as Pa and Ma are fused to him.

I forgot about swamp of the underworld, it actually is a very good and very simple counter to susano'o.

Not that I don't believe you but when did it get stated that Itachi = SM Jiriaya? Anyway the anime isn't canon, so if the O/P is talking strictly manga (which I think they are) then it doesn't count.

It's what i believe as well, but in my previous thread Itachi fans were bashing me when i said that. It's the reason why i gave other counters. And yeah Swamp of underworld is a basic but very easy way to defeat a Susanoo user :)

Prepare for itachi fan girl attack, they will try to bone you, and yes, using proper logic i'd say jiraya wins this.

Really good thread and good arguments,
Itachi ain't got shit on Jman
And the Susanoo part is so true.
Even Itachi admitted not being able to defeat Jman in part 1.

I really don't see why it wouldn't be the case, given what we know about Ma/Pa and sage mode. People tend to argue that Itachi's genjutsu only needs to take 1 second, but if the above holds then it would already be broken before Itachi can even use it. He has to activate, recognise that the jutsu has taken hold then proceed accordingly. Itachi is pretty damn cluey but it would still be broken before he registers its taken hold.

Amaterasu i'm a bit iffy on, but still I see Itachi going for a genjutsu first, failing, jiriaya countering, Itachi susanoo to defend, then swamp of the underworld. Then Itachi is kind of stuck.......

I start with Amaterasu.
You used killerbee as an example when he got away from the tentical that sasuke cut off saving karin also he may have info on this tech but he doesnt know how it works and you cannot use a sub when you are already caught with this tech jiraiya has never went up against an attack like amaterasu he seen it as black flames nothing more so he wouldnt be so on the egde about the speed but that it burns pretty much anyhting you mention that scroll like it would help in a fight also who to says he last long enough to get sm also itachi could use amaterasu on his frogs.


Susanoo
swamp world wouldnt do anything since susanoo is naturally stationary also you said putting him and the toad mouth trap he need to stay in one spot direct open for totsuska also ma & pa soung genjutsu is dodgeable that why jiraiya needed a tunneled area to use this also they can float to the top of thiere susanoo

While I do believe that Jman is an extremely powerful character, I don't agree with your assumptions on how the battle will play out.

1) Itachi can place someone in Genjutsu simply by pointing at them.... I doubt that Jman would have time to summon anyone before he was caught.

2) Jman isn't faster than Amaterasu and cant simply avoid it by dodging. It takes time for him to access sage mode and during that time period, with Itachi's sharingan... Jman would be to preoccupied to focus on him.

3) Itachi can read hand signs and could clearly see Jman's intent on the jutsu (you presume) that can hit him from below. Plus Itachi can activte Sasuanoo instantly, and could surprise Jman from quite a good distance and seal him away.

I don't know who would actually win the battle (despite my ^ statements) they where just examples of how Itachi could win the battle based on your assumptions.
