So u believe itachi's claim then? Just cause itachi said only a ms user can beat me sounds like a no limit fallacy
That claim is clearly self-hype, but using that as your defence is simply ignorant. Furthermore, uchiha was the #2 clan with senju no longer around. There was no one who could stand up to an elite MS uchiha at that point - possibly not even a senju as senju mostly fought tomoe-less/3 tomoe uchiha. The only uchiha with MS were izuna and madara, and they were only fightable by the strongest senju. You bringing up Hashirama(past), BM naruto(future), nagato(Unknown god), does not debunk his self-hype in the slightest. At that point, there was no one who couuld stand up to itachi, therefore, that self-hype was manga fact. Itachi isn't a psychic nor do we have any proof that someone like hashirama/BM naruto could stand up to Tsukuyomi. Most likely they'd be injured during that 1 second of 3 day torture, but their strong bodies wouldn't cause them to fall to their knees.
So ur implying if Nagato fought itachi alone he can defeat him? We already saw how itachi needed bee and naruto's help to break the CT ....if he's alone it's gonna be another story and not to mention Kabuto was controlling him..
I'm implying neither of us know the outcome. We've never seen nagato or itachi go all out, who am i to say who'd win? Nothing suggests Itachi needed Bee and naruto seeing as Bee could toss 4 TBB in a short interval and therefore break CT of his own - 4 TBB > Tbb + Rasenshuriken + yasaka. Or, Naruto could toss a chou Rasenshuriken to possibly solo the core. Or, Itachi could toss more than 1 yasaka magatama. The only manga fact is that Itachi previously spoke to naruto about failing because he went at everything alone and team work is necessary, and therefore he was trying to re-iterate this through the use of team work. CT doesn't need 3 people to destroy( Killer bee example).
Can he defeat BM naruto? a guy who causally smacked mountain busting bijuu damas away. Against KCM maybe, but against BM naruto? I don't think itachi can defeat him, Especially a non Edo itach who can sustain susanoo for only a limited time.
Have you ever seen itachi go all out? For that matter, There's never been an occasion where itachi didn't have Naruto in a genjutsu( bar KCM, seeing as bee took over naruto's role as genjutsu victim). Naruto throwing Mountain busting bijuu dama doesn't tell us much of how he's breaking a tsukuyomi if it were to hit him. I'm sure naruto/Bee wouldn't be breaking infinite tsukuyomi if it were activated.
That's what I'm saying, no limits fallacy! just cause itachi said only someone with MS can defeat him ..in this argument a person holds Itachi's statement to be absolute truth, ignoring the possibility that Itachi has no knowledge of certain enemies, or never expected to encounter them. The same can be said of Kishimoto: He never intended for his characters to be pitted in battle against characters from other works of fiction, so therefore statements like this do not hold true to other works of fiction necessarily. Furthermore, there is the possibility that Itachi was lying, bluffing, misinformed, or deluded.
No one's saying that's not self-hype. But using that to try debunk yata is completely foolish. At best we can assume itachi said that to intimidate/bluff the 3 opponents standing infront of him so he could escape easier without injuring them. Whereas, when Madara(black zetsu) made that claim, there was no one to intimidate, bluff, or lie to. Kishimoto's only goal was to inform us of wtf was going on at that point in time.
Idk what characters from other works of fiction have to do with this... Wtf does other works of fiction have to do with his manga...? His manga uses ninja's and chakra, barely any other manga use that.
Konan also stating pain to be invincible and undefeatable and Hiruzen was shinobi no Kami lol, while simply they aren't...it's outdated..to a very far extent. So it can't be quantified. ESpecially the databook which is seriously outdated. And some statements don't seem valid accroding to present time of naruto.
Pain is invincible and undefeatable...? Because SM Naruto and his plot shield did it, it's no longer manga fact? What's naruto's defence to the soul-sucking gedo dragon? He has none. Rinnegan took down the juubi, but it can't take down naruto/other ninja? :| The only person beating rinnegan is rinnegan. Stop bringing up the databook, i never even mentioned it, i'm going along with manga fact. Kishimoto rarely contradicts mangafact if you actually study it properly - only contradiction I know of is that orochimaru apparently said kusanagi pierces everything(i don't know when he said this) but it didn't pierce 4t naruto. In any case, hiruzen was called that by some fodder who never left konoha, not even a credible source. Also, Hiruzen hasn't shown us his full capabilities, so saying he isn't god of shinobi( because of lack of screen time) is wrong. He was stated to know every jutsu in konoha, be the strongest kage of his time and what not, that'd make him pretty godly tbh.
And Even so, itachi can't defeat hashi if u pit him against him ..
As far as we know.... I don't even want to argue it because I think hashirama > Itachi. The point being, we've never seen them fight, nor have we seen itachi go full out. He's always held back throughout the manga. The closest we have to itachi's capabilities is his feat of no-diff stomping a sanin(orochimaru), and an akatsuki(deidara). That pretty much puts him high up in the food chain even above the sanin and some akatsuki members.
The same could be said about the data books, especially the Ame statemnt where it says NO jutsu can escape its fury, so therefore it's invincible lol....and u can't counter kamui no matter what, they're outdated in simple meanings. So we can't quantify to a valid extent. Most of the time they're hyperboles and Yata mostly being fallacy of accident and arguments of belief. Usually the fanboys claim just cause it can block everything he can win any fight. While actually databook claims being the only support, we can't really conclude that it can block ANYTHING, seeing how outdated the data book is...and the other hyperboles it states..
Databook, databook, databook. That's all i'm hearing. This wasn't stated in the manga therefore it's not important. Kamui being escaped is manga fact so That databook nonsense is debunked. "A shield that reflects any attack", that's manga fact backed up by databook.
Woah, woah, woah, my goal isn't to state itachi defeats anyone. That's completely baseless and false. My goal is to state that yata does what it states it does. Juubi dama? Deflected. Juubi tail? Deflected. Obito's omnyouton orbs? Deflected/they break yata, i'm not sure. Because itachi can do that doesn't mean he can;
1) Even touch these people
2) Out last these people
Itachi can only hold up a susano'o carrying Yata for a few minutes, therefore, even though he could possibly defend himself from shishusenju, juubi laser, PS, meteors, Etc. He'd still lose the fight as he'd not be able to get close enough to these opponents to harm them, nor can he hold up that susano'o long enough to keep deflecting these attacks. Don't even bring up Totsuka, because i don't even believe that can pierce anything, all that says is it seals anything it pierces.
the JUBBI's TBB was calc'd at being to island level, to small country level, even if they explode in a bush ...it's harsh lol..can Yata counter a CT that's moon sized and drop it on him lol....it's hard to consider, but can it? It can counter anything! And also how does it block kamui and Ame? against these jutsu's no defence is possible ..
Yata deflected explosion from multiply kunai. Juubi-Dama exploding far off and then being hit by the force of the explosion from a distance probably won't even break a susano'o let alone debunk yata.
Oonoki+gaara held up a meteor. That meteor is pushed over to the side and all the debris flies all around yata.
It blocks obito's kamui because obito can't cross yata seeing as it'd push him away; I'm not too sure about kakashi's but Kamui is a jutsu, it's possible it's blocked too.
Idk what's Ame - if that's Raikiri then it's reflected by the fact that the user(kakashi) would be reflected away, therefore it wouldn't really be hitting yata anyway.
