Nah. Asumas Wind Blades slices through him and his nunchucks without trouble.

Yamato beats him too. Wood Clones feint him and he restrains and crushes him.

Hmm...
With only base feats (he can't even use basic Lotus for example) I don't see him beating Yamato... He'll get overwhelmed mokuton...

Based on his performance against Hidan, Asuma isn't contesting Gai in CQC at all. This dude was efficiently fighting alongside KCM Naruto in base, and looked more impressive then him against Obito.

What speed feats does Yamato have to catch someone as fast, reflexive, and perceptive as Gai? His strength should be more then capable of smashing through Mokuton.

The strongest opponent he can defeat is Part 1 3 Tomoe CM2 Sasuke. Yes, I am talking about Prime Gai.

Yeah but Hidan isn't bad in CQC. DB ranks him a 4.5 and his main power revolve around being good in CQC. Him being able to fight Kakashi in it, even for the brief time they clashed, is testament of that. Naruto is above average in taijutsu but in a real ranking he wouldn't even be top 10 (excluding things like SM) so I don't know why you're comparing him to Gai and saying Gai looked more impressive when its a fact Gais skill in that area is more impressive, much more. Asuma has of these. Range seems to be about 1 meter. It is the strongest nature for . Gai can't trade blows with Asuma or his limbs get sliced off. Nunchucks aren't helping him either. He dies.

Yamato has Wood Clones to feint Gai and has abiloties to retrain and impale him.

Naruto was engaging Itachi in taijutsu... that isn't by any means an above average feat. However, I wasn't talking strictly about taijutsu... I said Gai looked more impressive while fighting alongside KCM Naruto. That entails his perception and reflexes, in addition to his taijutsu. Overall, he did a better job in CQC then KCM Naruto did. Asuma is very clearly outclassed in terms of taijutsu skill, reflexes, perception, strength, travelling speed, body movement speed, and striking speed; and those wind chakra blades don't compensate enough. an armed opponent is so simple, even Ino/Chouji could do it against Asuma [ ]-[ ]. Gai won't have much trouble doing the very same, and possibly disarming Asuma, like he did to Kisame.

You're going to have to prove how slow Yamato is accomplishing any of that.

Jesus Christ. So base Gai being overall more impressive then KCM Naruto in pretty much everything that entails in a CQC confrontation means absolutely nothing? This doesn'ty imply to you that he's clearly out of Hidan/Asumas league? Good to know we have people here thinking that KCM Naruto isn't outclassing Hidan/Asuma in CQC.

Lmao, base Gai is beating Itachi in CQC.... Oh boy. You do understand that CQC isn't only taijutsu, right?

When you look at the staggering difference between hiachi's double wall palm on juubi then compare it to neji's lackluster feat against a water clone of a clone of kisame (literally 3% kisame) id say theres a difference.

neji's gonna have to resort to rotation constantly in cqc or else he gets crapped on.

No Neji ends Gai in CQC it isnt even funny nor debatable. The fact that Lee needed minimum of 5 gates just to stand a chance against Kid Neji in CQC and the fact Gai cannonly stated this was the way to beat Neji.. You do the math! Neji wins low-mid and thats me being modest!

Naruto sucks in CQC he isn't known for skills nor is he fast in CQC. He has a fast Shunshin (ninjutsu) and that is all! He has chakra arms and nothing that suggest he is even sub par in Taijutsu. He is what we call a Brawler. Which means no skills just swing and hope to hit what ever. Why do only the Uchiha fans think KCN is a beast or elite in Taijutsu???

I really don't know what you are crying about, calm down.

Wtf are you talking about, I didn't say Naruto can't outclass Hidan/Asuma. Gai is more experience and better in CQC and taijutsu than Naruto, that's all I was saying. So why you think comparing base Gai to Naruto is relevant is beyond me.

Yea around or below Zabuza Haku neji level.

He'd definitely defeat Haku, and more then likely defeat Zabuza as well.

Implying now that Itachi isn't even sub par in taijutsu.... I'm not even going to go there with you. CQC doesn't entail only taijutsu skill. Ones durability, strength, speed, execution, perception, bukijutsu, ninjutsu, genjutsu, etc. all come into play in CQC.

Helllll Naw! Zabuza for sure beats him and Haku takes him exhigh diff in gais favor considering he already reacted to both Lee and Gais strike cannonly. No, Naruto isn't anything close to being good in CQC period! He has never ever shown anything worth bragging about what so ever. Only SM Naruto is what can be looked at thanks to his added abilities. Itachi talking with naruto and fighting bee at the same time doesn't make Naruto any better in CQC. lol Be serious bro!!!

Insinuating that anything there implied I was crying, lmao. Replying to retarded comments gets tiring, that's all.

If Zabuza uses hidden mist and water techs then He might win

But by pure ken and taijutsu Gai wins

You're the one being retarded here and you need to calm down and take it down a notch.

Yes Gai is greater than all those people in CQC. Hence why he is more impressive than Naruto in CQC. Hidan and Asuma have nothing to do with what I said, really don't know why you keep mentioning them.

Show me where I said Naruto is greater than Asuma/Hidan.
