Nagato can't beat Itachi. that was proved in the manga in the 3 on1 fight when Itachi sealed him with the sword of tetsuya. Naruto beats almost everyone right now low dif. My only current exceptions would be Obito and Madara, simply because he doesn't have these eyes yet <<<<<<<<<
ok dude what are you talking about? Nagato would have destroyed Itachi if it was one on one. So what the hell are uou talking about it being proven? Only reason why Nagato got sealed is because he couldn't even walk and he was against 3 powerful ninja, how the hell does that prove Itachi alone can solo him? Obviously your reasoning is dangerously lacking. If he had full use of his legs he would have defeated all 3 of them. I swear do you people even read the manga? and besides Kishi already said Nagato is the strongest Alatsuki member. So there is your proof.
he doesnt beat ems madara and nagato.
OK dude let me educate you for abit. First of all When naruto fought the 6pop Pein had already just destroyed the entire village which exhausted alot of chakara, and becouse of this deva path was not able to use his techniques, Naruto had a ton of info, had 5 frogs with him, and Hinata saved his ass. If deva was able to use his abilities from the start there would have been no fight at all, Naruto would have lost mid diff just like Jman. And if it was just one on one Naruto would have lost low diff.
And after that when Nagato came back,KM Naruto was still no match and was about to die along with Killer B if was not for Itachi interfering they both would have been dead. And to add to that Nagato still was unable to walk and still was about to kill naruto. If he had full use of his legs Naruto would have been at even worse odds.
Now with BM naruto this is debatable, however Nagto can absorb any ninjutsu, and absorb his BM cloak but Naruto is super fast. However with all of Nagatos power honestly I still dont see Naruto in BM beating Nagato but he does have a chance. Id say 60/40 Nagato wins.
