Hi guys, I would like to talk about Kakashi and Gai's rivalry, also prove that Kakashi wouldn't get stomped by Gai unless Gai uses Eight gate straight from begining. Here I go:

Yeah Kakashi may lost a lot of power due to Kamui loss, however it is not one sided match and kakashi has great chance to do it.

First, six gate opened Gai and kakashi fought againt Edo jinchurki v2 and hold their own:

^^ Kakashi wasn't even shown using Sharingan at all even although he has opened sharingan.

Kishi portrayed: Six Gate Maito Gai = Kakashi with just sharingan(arguable if used at all)

Second, Kakashi only admitted inferiority to Gai when he went Eight gate

^^ Kakashi's father Sakumo Hatake said to kakashi that once day Gai may surprass him. In real time Kakashi admitted it.

8 Gate Gai > Kamui Kakashi

Third, Kakashi at least can open One Gate... and it was before Timeskip. It is not farfetched to say that Kakashi may be able to open second or at the most third Gate.

Loss of sharingan/MS -> Use of Gate to boost himself

One Gate Kakashi >=Six Gate Gai

Fourth, Kakashi is more intelligent and clever as shinobi. He also has vast arsenal of technique copied thanks to sharingan. Kakashi is not pushover. Even if he would be below Seven Gate Gai then still his mind and techniques can make up this gap and they would be equal in the end.

Eight Gate is suicide move so Gai most likely don't risk use it.

Lastly, Everyone is fodder in front of Kaguya except Ootsutsuki and by Ootsutsuki powered Shinobi

Summary: Kakashi won't get stomped by Gai unless he goes straight Eight Gate from the begining. If not then opening each gate make him tired a lot and he may last few seconds in Eight gate.

You are underestimating Maito Gai, and the sharingan.

yes,maybe
i think current kakashi can keep up with six gated gai ,he can deal with six gated gai ’s asakagyu by hiding himself under ground
and if guy opened the seventh gate ,he can hide himself under ground until gai gets tired ,then kakashi cut his leg by raiki
or decieving him with a lightning clone which will electric him for some seconds which will enable kakashi to end him with raiki
but the fight may go in another way
but
whatever i would rank seven gated gai much higher than current kakashi but i rely on kakashi’s smartness

Did this start from the other thread? Anyway, I completely agree. I would post manga scans and whatnot to prove my points, but doing that on a phone is a pain.

I slightly disagree. First Gate Kakashi is not equal to Sixth Gate Gai in terms of power. Kakashi won't even be able to use Raikiri, since he'll get tunnel vision. In terms of overall use, the two are equal in general. Gai's too stupid, and this isn't even bashing, but how he's portrayed. He seriously would need someone like Kakashi to be able to survive in the Shinobi world.

In my eyes it's like this:

8 Gate Gai > Kamui Kakashi

Kamui Kakashi > 7 Gate Guy

kamui kakashi might defeat eight gates gai if his second eye allows intangibility. in fact yes kakashi definitely beats gai
