You guys already know what the deal is, IM TURNT UP~
Ill start off very basic but very informative. Jiraiya using katon techniques in this match will be very useless considering Itachi himself has already shown enough fire power of his own to fend off or counter Jiraiyas Katon with the use of

which is more than enough to counters Jiraiyas katon base techniques. Also a different alternative to countering jiraiyas katon is simply copying his own katon with the sharigans predictive abilities. We are all aware of the fact that sharigan can predict the enemies move via handseal as shown against zabuzu when kakashi copied his Suiton technique perfectly[

Jirayas toads should be no problem here
Honestly a small portion of amaterasu should be enough to injure the toads and cease movement.
A simple genjutsu honestly pretty much ends this.
As shown in the hallway in part 1 even having knowledge on Itachi being a powerful Uchiha and having the sharigan activated at that moment he still stupidly makes eye to eye contact with him.[

Either way it just goes to show vulnerable Jiraiya is to itachis genjutsu which is a pretty much decider in this fight.A simple tysukuyomi will and can end this fight very easily. One can argue that Jiraiya will now know not to look into itachis eyes.
Even so this will be utterly useless as seeing Itachi has been shown to be able to use his crow summoning to put people under genjutsu.[

Even if jiraiya manages to enter sm, the only useful move would be to use Frog song but its too flawed.stated by Pa the frog song takes a considerable amount of time to take effect and it gives away their location if jiraiya and them plan on doing it from a secure location on jiraiya[

All the scans i provided 1-10 show the frog tech first taking place to the moment where it finally takes effect, it simply takes too long. One could argue it took longer because it was being used on more than one enemy which seems plausible but thats merely an assumption. Manga shows the frog song simply takes too long which will leave jiraiya vulnerable for a amaterasu.

Considering Prince Charles and I already sorted it out I really don't have anything to say to you. Eventually you'll learn that you can't always expect people to follow rules. Especially un-said imaginary rules that suit only one side of something.

So for Itachi to actually even start thinking about puting Jiraya in a genjutsu, it would have to happen in a close range battle. Here is where the problem begins since Jiraya is a long range fighter using and abusing of his superior ninjutsu

Jiraya being a long range fighter, Itachi would have difficuties to find opportunities to place Jiraya in a genjutsu and take advantage of it.
Also, contrary to the popular belief, Kai release can break out of any genjutsus including Itachi's. The reason why Itachi's tsukuyomi is unbreakable is not because of the power of it, but because it takes time in few seconds, so not giving time to the opponent to use kai release and break it. Now it depends on the users skills while using the kai release method. Like Jiraya said, to break genjutsu, you must try your best to stop your chakra flow
You must be registered for see links
. Doing that will break any genjutsu. That's
You must be registered for see links
.
Jiraya
You must be registered for see links
, the one he used on a woman to distract him, something that Itachi noticed, which shows he is skilfull in breaking genjutsus
Naruto for example was capable to break
You must be registered for see links
that Itachi gave, but still wasn't able to overcome the genjutsu completely. The reason behind this, Itachi already gave it himself. It's because he
You must be registered for see links
. That again shows that a more skilful kai release user could have broken Itachi's genjutsu completely
Another example is the Orochimaru vs Itachi battle. Itachi managed to put Orochimaru in
You must be registered for see links
. Since Kai release needs both hands to be together to be performed, it's for that reason Orochimaru struggled to break it. But Orochimaru could have broken it if he managed to put his hands together in time. He was already close to it even. It's for that reason that
You must be registered for see links
So like you can see, breaking Itachi's genjutsu isn't impossible at all, far from it actually. Depends now on the opponents skills in using the kai release method. But in general, genjutsu is used to create a diversion for a following attack, not to defeat the enemy
Those are the reasons why i believe that Jiraya could have broken Itachi's genjutsu if necessary. He has already shown the skill even. But would Itachi allow it to happen? That's probably where the real debate is
Anyway, like Jiraya also said, if yourself is incapable to break a genjutsu,

. Jiraya always starts battles with summons as partners [

So even if either of them was caught in a genjutsu at some point, the other will make him free from it exactly like a Jinchuriki's method for example. Gamabunta has shown the capacity
You must be registered for see links
, so he could use this method that would break Jiraya free from it and vice verse
Those are the main reasons why i believe genjutsu won't be an issue in this fight
Ninjutsu superiority
Jiraya is one of the most skilful ninjutsu user in the entire manga. Minato even said he thinks
You must be registered for see links
. During their encounter in part1 even, both Itachi and Kisame were

that they were already trapped by Jiraya's jutsu from the start, which could be considered as a testament of Jiraya's skilful use of ninjutsu

Talking about summons, my opponent forgot to talk about Gamabunta's help here. His suiton weree huge enough to even counter Shukaku's high level of fuuton technique(see above), so it will render Itachi's use of Katons meaningless and more importantly, Jiraya will even take advantage of it in the ninjutsu battle
Not only that, but like my opponent stated, Jiraya could also use combo attacks as powerful
You must be registered for see links
. Just to make you remember,
You must be registered for see links
, but himself look like shit compared to this jutsu. So Itachi won't survive if he receives an attack of this scale and unfortunately for him, he doesn't possess the ninjutsu arsenal to counter or even evade it
Jiraya also has high level of long range attacks thanks to his hair, capable to easily destroy huge summons

Those are the reasons why i believe Jiraya would totally dominate the ninjutsu battle
How does Jiraya counters Amaterasu:
Jman already has

that appears instantly withing a certain range, and from there begins
You must be registered for see links
the target(it's the reason why eventhough it almost appeared on Raikage, he had time to shunshin out of the way) and
You must be registered for see links
depending on where the user focuses. What i mean by that is that if a target is outside the range of amaterasu, it would be easier for him to notice it and therefore counter it with something in his arsenal. Sasuke for example was able

during a while and use a

before he uses Amaterasu(which shows btw that Amaterasu needs some time of concentration to be released)
Jiraya who even already has knowledge on the jutsu. During the time Amaterasu would be released, he could use

to protect himself and even

like he did against Pain
Sasuke made us understand
You must be registered for see links
because of sound vibration. Well, Pa and Ma have

Stamina advantage:
Jiraya undoubtely has the stamina advantage since his chakra was huge enough to even allow him to use Sage Mode. He was spamming techniques since he entered Pain's territory and i never saw him run out of stamina in the entire manga. On the contrary, most of Itachi's powerful techniques take a lot of tole on his body.
