Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Itachi have a gennjutsu that doesn't require eye contact? If so then they held him back in this fight..

So does sasuke. They don't even need to be within range according to the manga...

Haha really well its whatever it would've been a short fight if they did that and people would complain.. I think Itachi can maybe take on DSM Kabuto alone without edo tensei.. Sasuke has a higher chance with his higher chakra reserves and amaterasu mastery.
Both sides had their advantages and disadvantages but I think the Uchiha bros had it worse with location, mindset not to kill, no full knowledge, and having to be on the defensive to prep a jutsu..
The only disadvantage Kabuto had was not to fatally wound Sasuke and that Itachi was an edo.

This is true. It's 60/40 in favor of kabuto, faaaar higher odds for itachi than kabuto fans would like to admit.

You actually raise a good point considering we go with the assumption that the exact same bodily functions are needed.

well if it was just itachi vs kabuto, kabuto solos or sasuke vs kabuto the same...

just both of them could beat kabuto.

because amaterasu will work when kabuto is a sensor and has oral rebirth
because totsuka will work when kabuto dodged susanoo arrow

Zzz

oral rebirth countered ama only once when Itachi didn'T have killing intent
Itachi is faster than Sasuke and Totsuka is instant

as you see it isn't active here

and it instantly got activated

Yeah I suppose... sucks that the only bad thing about Itachi is his stamina and sickness.. its pretty much what holds him down to probably beating other top tiers.

well yeah I thought it was Obvious that Itachi was getting hit on purpose.. Just like the Edo Hokages against Obito at the beginning..


But he wouldn't be able to pull it off if he were alive

Lol I don't understand the purpose of this thread.. Kabuto could have re-summoned Madara and then GG if you wanna be hypothetical..

But for plot purposes, he didn't.
The same way Itachi couldn't kill Kabuto..
The same way Kabuto couldn't kill the Uchiha brothers..


In a non plot influenced battle, SM Kabuto wins..

edo itachi vs kabuto, idiot, kabuto alone.

He wasn't the real Itachi,only Edo.Kabut sliced him once in half (if you want proof VM me) he was Edo so he can't die.Kabuto is stronger get it.
