tell me just what punching is going to do against a tsunami of sand flying at her? no please, tell me.
Sakura doesn't have the speed to keep up with the sand and arguably her punches would do nothing to his ultimate defense

Gaara takes this Sakura isn't very fast on her feet Gaara will see her coming and easily counter her... Also didn't he make a sand cloud in part 1.??? If so then this is a stomp...

My bet would be Gaara mid-high difficulty.


I will acknowledge that Sakura does have insane destructive strength and could give the Susanoo a run for it's money (Seeing that Tsunade in her Byakugō seal did cause Madara some problems)

Yes I am saying she would destroy Garaa's shield

BUT.

Is she fast enough? Could she outrun the sand? I don't think so. If Gaara got ahold of her I think it would be game over.

What's more is if Gaara went Shukaku I don't know how she would deal with that. She's no Naruto, yes she could summon the Slug but against a blood thirsty buuji I don't think it would help much

Gaara wins, he can turn the surroundings into sand whenever he wants. Before she can move Gaara has her like then and finish her off with . Or he can sink Sakura with then

That isn't first part Gaara :p

That is first part Gaara, First part is the Naruto series in general lol. If you meant Chunin exam Gaara then you have to say that haha.

gaara wins this easily all he needs to do is use sand tsunamai which can cover a large area and engulf sakura in layers of sand.Sakura will suffocate under that sand shortly or Gaara can spam sand coffin while she's surrounded by layers of sand giving her major damage.Gaara can also release shukaku and go on a rampage thus killing sakura in the process.gaara wins low diff he has so many kill options.

If we're talking about the Gaara that fought Kimimaro then Gaara definitely takes this.

If it's Chuunin Exams Gaara then Sakura stands a good chance.

Considering Sakura's chakra enhanced strength is hyped to be even more powerful than Tsunade's now. I don't think part 1 Gaara's sand shield is gonna hold up. Unless someone is dumb enough to state Sand shield>Madara's susanoo, he's not gonna tank anything.
How Sakura get over sand Tsunami? jumping
We already saw she managed to jump high and fast enough to keep up with a Jubi spawn she sent flying several dozen mph. If that doesn't suffice, then she can also use Kaysuya as a platform.
Most arguments I see for part 1 Gaara are wanking him above the likes of high jonin and kage level opponents like Kakashi and Mei

There is a big difference between sand sheild and Susano'o, Sand sheild can be thickened and can be replenished as its being damaged not to mention an abundant element. Sakura isnt breaking through sand shield no matter how you look at this. Ill use Chidori blade as an example. It eventually cut through however Gaara was able to use more sand to stop the velocity of the blade. Since its just impact that's occurring on sand sheild then not much is going to happen if you think about it logically because he can re-enforce the shield with more sand if need be. It was able to Tank Deidaras C3 bomb so it can tank a punch.

Hype isn't helping much in this fight. Going by facts Tsunades punches out-ranked Sakuras. Where does it hyper her strength to be superior to Tsunade anyway? She wouldnt be getting anywhere near Gaara anyway. sand Tsunami rapes her and burries her under. Slugs do not work well in gritty environments so shes a non factor.

Gaara is high jounin level in part 1 though, its not hype. Its a fact he took out jounin level in part 1




What is jumping going to do in her case? she would be still hitting sand sheild.

If we were talking about part 2 Gaara, I would agree, but this is part1. Gaara has to apply chakra to harden his sand. More sand does not automatically make the defense stronger. When he used the Tanuki shield against Kimimaro, why did he make it only human sized and not use a shukaku sized one? Because he can only make a certain volume of sand to its maximum hardness, not mention he can't control the same amount of sand as he can in part 2. You don't see Gaara restraining Kimimaro with giant sand arms in part 1. This isn't part 2 Gaara where he controls practically the entire desert.

And in gaaras case the more sand he had the better the defence, the density is there but the amount of sand is required for a even better shield. He made a shikaku shield because it would be a waste of chakra to use a shikaku sized shield to block that calibur of jutsu, he had more than enough sand to make a bigger one but that was all the sand he needed to block it. He done the sand tsunami and that required more sand. He doesnt need to control that much sand to beat sakura because the amount he used on Kimmi is more than enough.

Current Sakura is high jounin level though, its not hype. It's a fact she took out 30 Juubi clones and the fact that even without Katsuyu, she is stronger than Shizune, a low jounin level ninja.

OT: Fight could go either way but I'd need more information in the OP to make a definite conclusion. Although I didn't know CE Gaara is this overrated because that version of Gaara gets stomped no difficulty.

I need a scan where part1 Gaara blocked something as strong as .
- also the sand tsunami is not instant, Sakura would have more then enough time to summon the slug/ jump high in the air
- Katsuyu isn't a non factor. There is no way part1 Gaara can deal with a Bijuu sized creature instantly.
