- Cutting chakra flow (which Naruto can see with his eyes), getting into a stance, power up, then kick, you telling me no prep time now?
- Night Elephant wasn't faster than Madara's reaction time, he fully reacted to it, and it was pre-Shinju absorption.
- Manga showed Madara was surprised and occupied by it, so no it wasn't an excuse, unless you can show me Madara paying full attention on Gai and not his staff? Madara already recognized Gai's speed from the start.
- A stronger Madara praising Sasuke's speed, it's faster than 8th Gate normal foot speed.
- How is it not on par? He wasn't aware of the new technique at the time, he didn't know switching was possible, still he realized it even before Naruto with SM and negative feeling sensing. Gai gets slaughtered right off the bat if Sasuke is serious, otherwise Sasuke toys with him until he gets bored Lol
Also realize all Gai did was against a weaker version of Madara compared to a stronger one that Sasuke fought.
- Lol stop with that. That all happened within essentially one page. The flashback got in the way of it though. I love that you failed to see what happened on the next page, Gai blitzed Madara.

Madara didn't have time to think, "Oh he's fast". Gai appeared in front of him, and he got wrecked.

- What I previously wrote. Gai speed blitzed Madara without hesitation and put his ass 6 miles under(I made up the miles).

Gai wasn't even going full power when he hit him either. Notice what Lee says. It's meant to be a continuous attack going from speed 1 to speed 5. Say that was only speed 1. Gai still got 4 more speeds baby.
- Considering he's looking straight ahead, and his staff is directly in front of him(He uses it to defend himself), who/what the hell else is he looking at. Unless you're implying dude got tunnel vision right before getting merked by one of the strongest offensive jutsu seen thus far.

In the scan notice the view we get of the staff, and the way Madara is holding it. Unless you're implying Madara has a side view perspective.
.
- Are you talking about Indra-Sasuke...? :|
- He was absolutely aware of the new technique. He can literally see the difference between the Limbos and Madara. Madara moved so fast that neither Naruto nor Sasuke saw or sensed him leave. Sasuke's reactions and reflexes were not fast enough to catch him escaping. Madara's reaction's reflexes > Indra-Sasuke's. The simple fact that he was able to escape and make it to damn near to Kakashi before they even realized he was gone should show the gap in their reflexes/reaction time.
You're greatly underestimating 8th Gate Gai.
>Completely ignoring the speed factor
Gai gets raped
There was no need to mention speed. I never said Sasuke wasn't fast. However implying Gai isn't faster is just hilarious. My point in not mentioning the speed was that, Madara knew Sasuke was coming. When Gai blitzes Madara you say Madara could have blocked but he was too focused on his staff, yet when Sasuke does it, you say, "Sasuke flawlessly executes a speed blitz and is the fastest character in the NV." (I got a little creative with it, but that's essentially what you're saying)
. Meanwhile Madara just brushes the attack off as though it didn't even happen and continues stomping out obito.
