3 years of waste (Byakugou)

[zGanymede]

I do not understand why Sakura spent 3 years learning such an ineffective technique. The main function of the combo of Ninpō Sōzō Saisei - Byakugō in Jutsu is to ensure a continuous regeneration, however, the regenerative capacity does not seem so impressive.

There are so many destructive Jutsus that could reduce Sakura to dust or even dismember her without difficulty. This Jutsu is not able to deal with a decapitation or even with a destructive Ninjutsu.

Sakura needing to be saved by Kakashi in the lava dimension shows that this Jutsu does not guarantee any immortality in battle. In fact, it only prolongs the user's life against low-level opponents. Even against Kage Level Ninjas, this Jutsu can still be overcome.

It is undoubtedly disappointing that such a technique does not meet the expectations placed on it. It still has a disadvantageous concept to the user (Cell Division). In short, the pinnacle of Medical Ninjutsu is not at all impressive and Kishimoto is rubbish when it comes to female characters.

Madara survived a tail beast onslaught with a weaker version, and byakugou can enhance attacks to monterous levels, as well as be programmed to perform on its own, regen become automatic. And Tsunade states it can regenerate limbs, only Kaguya has shown to do this.

It can also break seals, replenish chakra , and break genjutsu. Not to mention the tele-empathic bond it maintains with Katsuyu, tsuande was even able to see through her.

Obito was evolved to Kaguya level because of it

Perhaps the technique could be well represented in the hands of his daughter, because it clearly was not in his hands.

As shown, the combination of both techniques is not at all impressive. But that may change in the future, perhaps.

Remembering, I'm not a hater of Sakura. In fact, she's my favorite character.

It certainly doesn't help against god tier techniques but it boosts ninjutsu (see Tsunade+ Ohnoki's Dust Release or Sakura+ Obito's Kamui).

Sarada will be better if she walks on Sasuke's path if she desire to be as strong as Future Boruto

Its main purpose (regeneration) does not seem impressive.

In relation to Madara, he possessed Sage Mode that amplifies the natural resistance of his body. Regeneration comes as a bonus.

That is the advantage, although it is still disappointing. The pinnacle of Medical Ninjutsu represents Sakura's effort and unfortunately it's no big deal. Kishimoto worked badly on that.

I agree. But hopefully Sarada will make better use of it.

Yes I hope.

Alt game strong.

Great thread.

Her technique would only help as long she is not instantly killed.

 

[Obito the supreme jin]

Ineffective, go read the manga again. There are so many events you missed.

Sakura healing the SA remotely using Katsuyu is a damn impressive feat.

We did not see the severity of the injuries of the people Sakura healed. And yes, it's a technique with little effectiveness in battle against high-level opponents. The combination of these two techniques serves as a means for the Ninja Medical to fight in the front line, however, considering the level of the high level characters and with who accompanies Sakura, this technique is totally inefficient.

The technique itself is simply disappointing. "Peak of the Medical Ninjutsu". What's the use of all this if you're beheaded, blown up or cut in half? The vast majority of high level techniques are lethal.

Go home you liar, Kamui hacked kaguya's dimension without that thing

She did this because she was Kyuubyfeed.

 

[Calpal]

Im not a huge sakura or tsunade fan, but byakugo is broken as hell.

decapitation? Tsunade was bisected at the abdomen area and was like ten yards away from her lower half lol

The last part kind of is where you messed up with the ill intentions of your thread because they dampen at least half of what you said, because not only are there enough formidable female characters (Kushina, Ino, Temari, Tsunade, Mei) all of which spread throughout the series, but there's the fact Medical Ninjutsu has proven way more useful than you imply. Madara detested the sight of Medical Ninjutsu as rustled as he seemed to be that someone else had Hashirama's regenerative abilities, which probably played a huge role in his defeat as not only was he recovering from fatal wounds that Madara could not recover from, but he was also having the advantage in strength between the two as a result.

Saying Medical Ninjutsu was useless for Sakura when she used it to save 1000s of shinobi and negated the effects of the Rikudou chakra induced rods, saved the protagonist at least two times with it, saved Sasuke while we're at it, and WAS THE MVP (depending from which lense you look at it) in the final stage of the Kaguya fight (retrieving Sasuke with Obito, landing the blow that would afford Sasuke and Naruto time to seal Kaguya). Saying Sakura's Medical Ninjutsu did nothing for her when without her Sasuke and Naruto would have probably not have defeated Kaguya at all, or succeeded but with much more fatal wounds, that depending on whether you believe Sasuke would have even made it back without spending a good amount of time trying to figure out how to, and expending A LOT of his chakra as a result, is an irrefutabley huge stretch. Anyway, you, as every other Sakura hater have a very narrow view on any feats that, despite how they could be no so great, are still appreciable for the fact that they are.

 

[Jinrou]

Nah.. i disagree. Its a pretty useful technique to have and i'm sure we'll see it at its full potential in Sarada's hands.

But most of it is still true though. There are a lot of ways to circumvent the technique and i also like to point out how Sakura's reaction to the lava could be a reason why we never saw Katsuyu's acid being used in a fight. It could potentially be dangerous for the byakugo users as well.

 

[HowDidIGetPrem]

Nice fanfic. To learn Byakugo means to learn extreme chakra control along the way as well and store chakra endlessly. What you aren't grasping is the fact that Sakura didn't spend three whole years learning the ability, rather she spent a couple of years storing chakra into it for the seal to manifest.

The way achieving Byakugo works would mean it would make learning other things much, much, much easier than they would be otherwise. Naruto's whole struggle with learning Rasenshuriken was chakra control and it ended up totaling over a decade's worth of years. Not to mention that Byakugo may give the chakra to perform the Mulit-Shadow Clones jutsu with a large number of clones, which in turn makes learning jutsu exponentially faster.
