The fact that Sasuke used ALL that chakra from the different beast just to make a lightning based attack showed his lack of experience with handling Nature / Chakra manipulation of that level. Not discrediting him as it was his first time but to me Indra arrow would have been much more effective if he used the Elemental / nature abilities of the beast with his arrow rather than pure Lightning.

Thoughts?

Sasukes primarily a lightning style user, right? I’d always thought he used lightning since it was his strongest element and would be his strongest possible attack. And with the beasts under genjutsu, I don’t think he could call on any techniques from them like naruto could, but rather he could just call on their chakra like obito, madara, and kaguya did. They were just batteries for him, nothing more

Correct but with him having the Rinne-Tomo you would think he would have at least mixed fire and lightning in at minimum. Why go ALL lightning. Lightning and fire mixed arrow would have done much better than pure lightning.

I don't know, Kurama compared it as a feat comparable to Hogaromo's division skill. Converting the beasts chakra natures to lightning is a feat in and of itself. As for Sasuke using only lightning that allowed for concentration of chakra and form it was to allow Naruto an ability to counter.

he needs permission to use the bijuu chakra/atributtes like when he stole chakra from naruto a vote 2 but kurama said he couldnt use it

He literally took all the bijuu chakra and made it his own and turned their chakra into his own affinity which is lightning that's pretty impressive and i believe he couldn't do it cause he never possessed their chakra before hand

Imagine Indra Arrow with Amaterasu on top, that combo would defeat wind element. Remember wind > lightning when they both class.

I suspect it's pure lightning just to make reference to the fact that Indra is known as the god of lightning. Adding enton would have been a much more sensible choice disregarding plot.

Thoughts? Plot.

The fictional "truth" about it? Sasuke is a refined beast and turned all that Tailed Beast chakra into an arrow shaped attack of pure wild electricity.

I disagree the performance he gave with those chakras was almost if not the greatest example of what your talking about. He probably chose to use lighting because it was his most mastered element and he would have to turn that chakra into a large human especially. He literally took chakra from 9 of the strongest chakra beings, merged 9 different chakras into one, converted it into electricity, shape manipulated it into the form of a giant human with a giant lighting bow and arrows and put his other humanoid chakra manipulation around it as a form of armor. Also, keeping those chakra affinities from the tailed beast would ultimately result in the same effect being a large explosive so it’s abit pointless outside of aesthetics. I personally was hoping for Enton Perfect Susanoo.

The tailed beast chakra wasnt just Indra’s arrow but the lighting humanoid inside the chakra humanoid shooting lighting arrows and then Indra’s arrow.

I do admit it would have been dope af to see.
