No, that statement only refers to the slash Hashirama had to dodge himself.So basically you are agreeing with me.. And your statement here is false since Hashirama did encounter a third slash.
Point?What feats do you need, its the shockwave swung that travels faster then the actual sword swung.
Irrelevant. We are talking about Kabuto, who needs to evade it, not dodge it.1. Hashirama was able to wield a hand sign when the sword was swung already
Same as above.2. Tsuade already tried to gather chakra, who also wield hand signs, when the sword was swung down at them. Some Gokages weren't ready to give up[You must be registered for see links]
You are speculating that they managed to avoid PS slashes. That's what you are speculating.Wheres the speculation?
Viz clarifies
Gokage weren't shown doing anything. Just more of your speculation.Every character shown encountering it did.
The speculation is it being able to move faster than any sea animal.How is that speculation? What land animal moves faster on water?
Far better senses isn't an argument. Telling me that Manda II>Manda I when it comes to senses doesn't give you a valid point. Either bring feats to prove that it will be able to do so before the slash hits it or don't bother at all.Manda II size means nothing as Kabuto drug this being to counterpart/better then the original Manda. Far better senses will be detected and easily maneuver most of its body underground to avoid a lethal hit
PS already dwarfs the Myojinmon Gates that held the Juubi.Or maybe you don't understand how big Manda II is?

Manda II is already stated and shown to be stronger than Manda in every way, terrible analogy.Can you even prove Manda II is superior Manda I?
I dont see how can I change a bias opinion into a unbias opinion.
All of this comes with common sense. Moukton isn't able to produce shockwaves like PS can but it is very useful in blocking the the path. And I know you don't believe the jaws of wood dragon is more powerful then Manda II[You must be registered for see links].
No, its not applied here reasonably, you are just making flawed comparisons as usual.ABC is can applied here reasonably.
No proof that they are Hidden Snakes. No evidence either. Manga shows them to be far different from the average snake anyway.Here we go again.. Your doing this again. Once again THOSE snakes, called Hidden Snakes aren't being connected to the user body. They are able to unleash through their user body, explained by Kishimoto. They are not actually inside the users, waiting to be used. [You must be registered for see links].
Not seeing how any of this disproves my claims.Now lets look at the beginning of the fight.[1]. Already your interpretation is flawed. Kabuto hides his face and had the snakes look at the brothers instead. In your case if the snakes are the same being as Kabuto, Genjutsu will still work on him. Then[2]. Sasuke tells Itachi to watch out for those snakes. The context switches from Kabuto preventing getting hit from jutsu to Sasuke telling Itachi about the snakes, Kabuto is using to counter. Kabuto has no such feats to sense things through temperature and also sense of smell passing through his mouth, which Sasuke explains that the snakes can do. Sasuke questions the Snakes being bigger, something unoriginal to his knowledge. Then[3]. Once Kabuto use the snakes to attack, Sasuke thought Kabuto was under the hood, which he ended up shocked that he wasn't. In your interpretation all of it should be Kabuto and no one should be surprise when capture Kabuto[4].
Lol, this means nothing. This doesn't change the fact that when he sloughed off his skin it was stated that KABUTO was the one doing it. It was shown that they couldn't locate the real KABUTO. Not his summoned snakes.Last point. When Kabuto was talking, no lip movement was involved from the snake[5]. All you would actually read HISS sound effects.
Uh, no its not. Cause its shown that Kabuto got away.Thats contradicting statement how they looking for Kabuto when they are holding Kabuto.
This is irrelevant either way.ALWAYS is a wrong statement, which I will get back up once again. The purpose of Hidden snakes comes in various purposes. Mainly Biting[1] to constriction[2] (Stated in Databook and scans I am linking).
Back to ALWAYS STAY and NEVER LEAVE. That is incorrect[1>2>3].
I don't know where you are going with, by separating "dodging" and "evading" in context, and why its important.No, that statement only refers to the slash Hashirama had to dodge himself.
First one was blocked.
Second one wasn't coming for him.
Third one was evaded.
He evaded it once, and that's it.
Defend,parry, and counter before it gets destructive.Point?
.....Irrelevant. We are talking about Kabuto, who needs to evade it, not dodge it.
Well I can't state that they didn't either, can I? But lets say they didn't avoid PS. What does this ending result tell you, personally?You are speculating that they managed to avoid PS slashes. That's what you are speculating.
What am I speculating? They fought Madara off screen, fact.[Gokage weren't shown doing anything. Just more of your speculation.
Hashirama only evaded one, and he can keep up with people far faster than Kabuto, so giving him that feat is useless.
Ok, stating "any" was an exaggeration. But Motoi stated something is coming rapidly, when Manda II is not even a sea monster says alot.The speculation is it being able to move faster than any sea animal.
Whats feats needs be shown, when its all about distance role play.Far better senses isn't an argument. Telling me that Manda II>Manda I when it comes to senses doesn't give you a valid point. Either bring feats to prove that it will be able to do so before the slash hits it or don't bother at all.
1. Dwarfs? What kind of scaling is that? You can literally draw a straight line from their distance, from their height.[PS already dwarfs the Myojinmon Gates that held the Juubi.
You must be registered for see links
And those are all Bijuu sized right there.
PS is near the Juubi's size minus the tails.

What do you mean no evidence? Kabuto's contract summon can act as S/T. That fact that he was able to start Manda II underwater, when he needed to fly for his destination, and also took advantage of reverse summon[Size is irrelevant anyway. Manda gets bisected and that's that. You have no evidence towards the contrary.
Manda II is already stated and shown to be stronger than Manda in every way, terrible analogy.
lol, here we go. Not agreeing with your BS speculation=/=Me being bias. Sorry pal. Come with arguments that have valid evidence or don't come at all.
"Better senses let it evade all attacks"
"Size lets it block all attacks"
These aren't forms of evidence. Period. Just you stating your bias opinion.
4That isn't a PS blade as you can clearly see. You can also clearly see on the next page that Madara leveled up to PS AFTER the clash. Once again, you have no point.
How is it flawed?No, its not applied here reasonably, you are just making flawed comparisons as usual.
Lol what.. No extra snakes appearing[No proof that they are Hidden Snakes. No evidence either.
Thats because Snake summons work like Toad summons and other summonings, which words through the amount of chakra used during the summoning determines how powerful the summoned creature can be.Manga shows them to be far different from the average snake anyway.
It completely debunks your interpretation as the context of the snakes and its feats were separated from the context of talking about Kabuto.Not seeing how any of this disproves my claims.
No both Kabuto and the snakes were doing it, as its going by Kabuto's command, like how Summon Snakes function.Lol, this means nothing. This doesn't change the fact that when he sloughed off his skin it was stated that KABUTO was the one doing it. It was shown that they couldn't locate the real KABUTO. Not his summoned snakes.
Statement still a contradiction. If he got away, then the snakes Itachi is holding, is not Kabuto.Uh, no its not. Cause its shown that Kabuto got away.
Yes it is. It debunks your premise of your statement. Thats the evidence that Hidden Snakes can move out of the body, from the summoner.This is irrelevant either way.
I am giving you proof. You are trying to make my proof irreverent, to make them invalid. I have backed up the claims that Kabuto controlling Manda IIInstead of relying on shaky evidence why don't you bring definitive proof that Kabuto can do what you claim he can do to Manda II? Not even gonna bother with this point until I see some real evidence and not the usual nonsense.
I don't know where you are going with, by separating "dodging" and "evading" in context, and why its important.
Not even sure what that has to do with the shockwave getting stronger, but of course you don't have the feats for any of your claims.Defend,parry, and counter before it gets destructive.
That was an error. I meant that he needs to evade it, not block it......
I'm not going to say anything on this point. I'm just going to say that you are speculating. I'm not going to join you in your speculation. Its dumb to assume they were out there evading PS slashes when they were all about to die the moment it was used in the first place. Not adding anymore on this point till you stop speculating.Well I can't state that they didn't either, can I? But lets say they didn't avoid PS. What does this ending result tell you, personally?
Them avoiding PS slashes isn't fact. Its speculation.What am I speculating? They fought Madara off screen, fact.[You must be registered for see links][You must be registered for see links]
Doesn't say enough.Ok, stating "any" was an exaggeration. But Motoi stated something is coming rapidly, when Manda II is not even a sea monster says alot.
Whats feats needs be shown, when its all about distance role play.
What the hell are you even doing? The Myojinmon Gates are the 10 obvious GATES on the scan. Not the Bijuu Dama tree.1. Dwarfs? What kind of scaling is that? You can literally draw a straight line from their distance, from their height.[You must be registered for see links]
-Hachibi is near the size of the Juubi's head.2. How:
Bijuu compared to PS are smaller than Bijuu compared to Turtle Island. But size is irrelevant, so I'm not going to continue with this point.3. And how does this conclude being bigger or about the same scale as the Turtle Island.
What do you mean no evidence? Kabuto's contract summon can act as S/T. That fact that he was able to start Manda II underwater, when he needed to fly for his destination, and also took advantage of reverse summon[You must be registered for see links], shows what distance can favor Kabuto to use Manda II. In fact he can Manda II start coming from underground, since Kabuto knows how to perform Doton: Moguragakure.
Lol, and I see no feats.1.Never said better senses will evade all attack, I stated it can help predicti the sword movement and acting to parry it's swing.
Mokuton Hands aren't the same as a giant snake. Mokuton Hands catching PS blade doesn't mean that Manda II will do the same with its mouth. Sorry pal.2. What do you mean all? Its only a slash that is swung by an entity, your exaggerating my claims. I am clearly rationalizing that the size of Manda II can do as much as a smaller scale Mokuton was able to do. Since it does have more power then a Mokuton.
Lol, what? Strength has nothing to do with parrying an attack? Smh....And please dont bring up Mokuton being even with PS strength, as it doesnt say much of an act of parry.
Irrelevant. Mokuton is NOT Manda II. Mokujin being fast and strong enough to block PS's arm doesn't mean that Manda II will be fast or strong enough to block or evade the attack. Even if I agreed with this "It'll catch it in its mouth or with its hand" bullshit you are spouting, he swings the other blade just like he did against Hashirama, and Manda dies.It doesn't matter what was used as Susanoo is much harder then Mokuton. PS can easily slash through Mokuton, but Mokuton scaling can also be use to hold the sword or the arm of Susanoo via parrying. That was my point, that it doesn't take much strength feat like Mokuton to parry it, and especially from Manda II size.
PS rivals the Bijuu in destructive power. Not overall power. Don't try and twist this to fit your wanked image of Manda II.How is it flawed?
1. PS power can rival Buijuu's.
Irrelevant. Manda II is only going to beat a Bijuu in a physical contest. If it uses any form of Bijuu Dama Manda dies in a heartbeat.2. Manda II can logically and reasonably man handle/wrestle with a Buijuu.
Irrelevant. Irrelevant.3. Full intent defeat[You must be registered for see links][You must be registered for see links]. Full intent defeat[You must be registered for see links][You must be registered for see links]
Its limbs are pathetically small. Not even worth mentioning.4.Snakes power come from its Constriction, which he beat things over their size. Manda II has limbs on top of it.
Not even gonna bother with the rest. Even if Manda II is buffed, you still don't have the feats to say it can tangle with PS, so it dies.Lol what.. No extra snakes appearing[You must be registered for see links]. extra snakes appearing[You must be registered for see links][You must be registered for see links]. Same snakes used against Anko[You must be registered for see links]
Thats because Snake summons work like Toad summons and other summonings, which words through the amount of chakra used during the summoning determines how powerful the summoned creature can be.
Kishimoto explains this. Example, here is his description on Binding Snake Glare Spell: "Snakes summoned by this technique are on a whole other level in terms of intelligence and strength, compared to normal summons."
Compare to Hidden Snakes "This attack comes in many variations, from biting to constriction. In addition, as those snakes are summoned animals, they are far stronger and more cunning than regular ones, thanks to which they can effectively be employed for capture by entwining around the enemy."
Another example, Is Orochimaru with Senju DNA can produce[You must be registered for see links]
It completely debunks your interpretation as the context of the snakes and its feats were separated from the context of talking about Kabuto.
No both Kabuto and the snakes were doing it, as its going by Kabuto's command, like how Summon Snakes function.
Kabuto already shown his personally appearance of skin sloughing[You must be registered for see links].
Sasuke was making the assumption that he is as if he was comparing him to Orochimaru[You must be registered for see links].
Statement still a contradiction. If he got away, then the snakes Itachi is holding, is not Kabuto.
Yes it is. It debunks your premise of your statement. Thats the evidence that Hidden Snakes can move out of the body, from the summoner.
I am giving you proof. You are trying to make my proof irreverent, to make them invalid. I have backed up the claims that Kabuto controlling Manda II
You must be registered for see images
will be the same as controlling his Hidden Snakes
You must be registered for see images
I didn't separate them. I used two different words that mean the same thing.
Not even sure what that has to do with the shockwave getting stronger, but of course you don't have the feats for any of your claims.
That was an error. I meant that he needs to evade it, not block it.
I'm not going to say anything on this point. I'm just going to say that you are speculating. I'm not going to join you in your speculation. Its dumb to assume they were out there evading PS slashes when they were all about to die the moment it was used in the first place. Not adding anymore on this point till you stop speculating.
Them avoiding PS slashes isn't fact. Its speculation.
Doesn't say enough.
You need to show
What the hell are you even doing? The Myojinmon Gates are the 10 obvious GATES on the scan. Not the Bijuu Dama tree.
-Hachibi is near the size of the Juubi's head.
-Those Gates are the same size as the Juubi's head.
Bijuu compared to PS are smaller than Bijuu compared to Turtle Island. But size is irrelevant, so I'm not going to continue with this point.
Lol, and I see no feats.
Mokuton Hands aren't the same as a giant snake. Mokuton Hands catching PS blade doesn't mean that Manda II will do the same with its mouth. Sorry pal.
By your logic since Naruto can block a sword by clapping his hands in between it. Ay can do the same with this mouth cause he's stronger....Just stop.
Lol, what? Strength has nothing to do with parrying an attack? Smh....
Irrelevant. Mokuton is NOT Manda II. Mokujin being fast and strong enough to block PS's arm doesn't mean that Manda II will be fast or strong enough to block or evade the attack. Even if I agreed with this "It'll catch it in its mouth or with its hand" bullshit you are spouting, he swings the other blade just like he did against Hashirama, and Manda dies.

Not even gonna bother with the rest. Even if Manda II is buffed, you still don't have the feats to say it can tangle with PS, so it dies.
two correction;I'm not fully aware of the feats of this debate nor thread, but I may remember you once stating that Madara's feats for PS can't be used for Sasuke due to the size difference as the biggest factor. A full Kurama was as big as PS, half of it (50& Kurama) is naturally half as big as normal Kurama. The Susano'o of the latest version Sasuke wields is as big as the half, meaning it's half PS size.
Noting how enormous Manda the second is, dwarfing even enormous Bijū like Hachibi, which is the same size as half of Kurama, which then is as big as Sasuke's Susano'o I don't see Manda losing in at least physical contest.
Not to mention it's agility is top notch (snake) and advanced even further.
Liquification:Sasuke can overcome liquification as he is sasuke
Sasuke can overcome genjutsu as he is sasuke
Sasuke can overcome Edo Tensei as he is Sasuke
two correction;
1) Madara's PS was actually bigger than full sized kurama.
2) It was sasuke's V3(unarmored) susano'o that was the size of 50% kurama. His PS is a lot bigger than that.
What? :|^ Let's not forget that Amaterasu destroys Natural Energy. He is vapourized by heat alone.
Madara has absorption techs. Juubi's Jins cancel out Ninjutsu. Inorganic Transmigration used by Kabuto on the cave was on a wide scale. The Heat from such a small area of Amaterasu completely negated NE and reverted the cave back to its original state. Kabuto mentions it quite explicitly.If that were the case then it would've been used on Madara when he had sage mode. It would've been used on the Juubi's Jinchuriki.
