Itachi didnt want kabuto dead..

Kabuto would have killed itachi to save his life, so i think when kabuto noticed he was losing the battle he started fighting to kill itachi

Itachi > Kabuto

If Itachi were alive he would've died so many times in that fight it wouldn't be a fight, however we didn't find out till later it was already a genjutsu we were viewing, so we'll never truly know.

well he was trying to die to save sasuke, and he was an edo so he didnt care.

1v1 alive Itachi would have destroyed Kabtuo IMO

It won't be substantial but I'd say Itachi ,

just because of his adroitness and dexterity .

If Sasuke wouldn't had arrived then Itachi would have lost to Kabuto. If Itachi would had been able to kill Kabuto, without holding back... he would have used more powerful moves. He couldn't really go all out.

People keep saying that "if Itachi wanted to kill him"...

So Kabuto could've killed Itachi? Think about it.

AND Kabuto couldn't have killed Sasuke either.

Itachi was an EDO, which means he CAN'T be killed either. Same as how Itachi couldn't kill Kabuto, Kabuto couldn't kill Itachi OR Sasuke.

Kabuto had the bigger handicap and still sliced through Itachi. Kabuto wins my man. Kabuto wins. Let Itachi rest in peace...

Itachi would have gotten beaten by Sound Four combo + Orochimaru...

then again Itachi probably could have just ended the fight if he wasn't being arrogant,...

I guess it depends on whether or not Kabuto has his eyes closed...

Kabuto killed Itachi a ton tho

There is a thread in the versus section, itachi vs kabuto.

I posted viz scan of what happened in that fight.

If kabuto sliced and killed itachi in that fight, he wouldn't of completed inzanami.

kabuto had the handicap? kabuto had intel while the uchihas had none, the terrain advantage. not to mention the uchiha weren't going all out

What people don't seem to get that whilst Itachi's intention was not to kill Kabuto he could not under any circumstance skimp on defence as Kabuto would re-write his talisman. With this in mind:
  • White Rage - would have been a win had Itachi been solo and not edo
  • Inorganic transmutation - got through susano'o would have killed Itachi if not for edo
  • Kidomaru web/ Kimimaru bone forest - Would have lost as a partner was needed to cover both angles
  • Tayuya Flute- Would have bound Itachi and paralysed him without a partner
  • Orochimaru serpent - Actually out smarted Itachi and would have re-written the tag without Sasuke present


There are just too many time that Itachi was saved in that fight due to edo/ plot or had to rely on Sasuke to save him. A solo alive Itachi would lose to DSM kabuto.

yes the circumstances allowed for Kabuto to try more jutsu on Edo Itachi , but due to what was at stake and their goals and objectives Itachi would have had another strategy and taken another approach during the battle. Edo Itachi was knocked out by Kabuto while he was protecting Sasuke. If Sasuke wasn't their then Itachi wouldn't have to save Sasuke and that moment where he was decapitated wouldn't have happened had Sasuke not been there or they weren't in a cave.

If 100% healthy fresh Kisame/Samehada fought Guy in Kisame's place of choosing : probably surrounded by water, Kisame probably would've won.

Edo Itachi wasn't a stronger version of Itachi. Edo Itachi didn't have a disease and his body could regenerate , but he didn't have Yata Mirror. In a grassland plain, open field, Itachi would've probably beaten Kabuto alone. For instance where Sasuke vs Deidara took place. In an open field, Yata Mirror would negate all of Kabuto's jutsu. Also Itachi uses water style and can read Kabuto's movements easily even when blind and under genjutsu it was easy for him to figure out Kabuto's future actions and protect Sasuke.

itachi couldnt hvae just ended the fight...from the start when itacha and sasuke first arrived kabuto wasnt looking at them, and sasuke said he was doing that to counter genjutsu and then when kabuto used sage mode he basically became a snake(technically a dragon) and could block out his eyesight and use a snake's sensory abilities like being able to sense thorugh vibrations or use their tongues to sense not to mention the sage mode sensing abilities on top of that...Kabuto built himslef to counter genjutsu, and damage, but kishi pulled a jutsu out of his ass that was specifically designed to beat kabuto


u do realize totsuka, or amaterasu will be dodged by kabuto sage mode sensing abilities


u do realize kabuto can heal instantly


u do realize kabuto can passively absorb senjutsu


u do realize kabuto has sound genjutsu and every shinobi except kabuto is vulnerable to genjutsu


kabuto can avoid physical damage by manipulating his molecules and turn a body part or his entire being into water, as well as being able to augment his size of certain limbs thus increasing strength...


he can use a web technique that can bibd anyone and only those who use gentle fist can break it or can use jutsu that channel chakra to the hands


kabuto can use sakon and ukons ability to manifest another body in which he can use other jutsu



kabuto a jutsu that hardens his bones and can manipulate them as well as use them as weapons





kabuto can instantly heal


cant be caught in genjutsu unless its izanami


sage mode sensing and snake senses allows him to dodge almost any jutsu


coupled with his instant healing he cant take physical damage becaus ehe can turn himself into water


he has 5 kg's kimimaru/kidomaru/juugo/sakon and ukon/karin


sound genjutsu


orochimaru's chakra


immortality techs...


and arguably the most powerful summon Manda2 it is extremely fast and strong and caught up with Turtle island rather quckly and than nearly choked the life out of it and i imagine the length of it is probably equal to the buddha
