itachi the great
Member
today i am going to tell everyone how powerful is itachi with some solid arguments, i am not bashing any character. trust me its worth reading.
Ninjutsu don't work on him thanks to his ability to absorb chakra, and he's fairly safe from taijutsu due to having no blind spots, but he has no protection against genjutsu.The six bodies and his summons having a linked field of vision mean that you need to cast a genjutsu on only one of them to trap them all.
That makes Itachi - arguably the best genjutsu user in the whole series - the worst possible match for him.
His strongest attacks (Shinra Tensei/Bansho Ten'in and Chibaku Tensei) wouldn't work because Susanoo anchors its user to the ground so he can;t be pulled/pushed around.
As Kabuto stated, Nagato isn't very mobile, which leaves him quite vulnerable to being sealed away by the Sword of Totsuka.Other than that, Itachi has Tsukuyomi, Kotoamatsukami (if they're fighting before him talking with Naruto) and Izanami.
The 4th got no experience with tsukuyomi, and differently no experience facing itachi's genjutsu. And itachi could beat tobi, he almost killed him with out even being there by sealing his eye tech. in sasukes sharingan.. itachi's will save him this fight bc hes fast enough to dodge close range attacks by the 4th that his sharingan will be showing him..
(Itachi is a master with kunai)
Itachi is very powerful in genjutsu.
Itachi is very smart..
On top of his perceptive skills, Kabuto also noted that Itachi possessed skill in deception due to Itachi's ability to read people's feelings, and this made him a ninja of lies up until his death.
Itachi is winning this, if anything.. hes prolly one of the most powerful ninjas in the naruverse.. id even say hes above most of the kage, sasuke fought 4 or 5 all at the same time in a weakened state, so yeah..
conclusion:
itachi is >>nagato>>minato so now fanboys go away.
itachi and nagato
Nagato has more destructive power, but if he was to fight Itachi, he'd lose.

Shurikenjutsu
Even in his youth, Itachi could perfectly hit an intricate set of nine targets, one of which was hidden in a blind-spot, by accurately deflecting one kunai off another to ensure they struck mark. During his fight with the controlledNagato, he was able to blind Nagato's summons despite the shared field of vision granted by theRinnegan.Itachi was also very skilled with shuriken, with Sasuke stating that Itachi was best with such tools, even more so than their own father. During their fight at the Uchiha Hideout, Itachi was able to counter every one of Sasuke's shuriken with his own whilst simultaneously making ashadow clone, all despite his extremely deteriorated vision.Itachi is very powerful in genjutsu.
Genjutsu
Itachi was especially praised for his skills in genjutsu, such as casting one by merely pointing at someone or turning opponents' genjutsu against them.According to Ao, he could even use his genjutsu to take control of other individuals from a long distance. With the Sharingan, Itachi reached the point where he could even make use of one of the Uchiha clan's ultimate dōjutsu, Izanami, and had knowledge of its counterpart, Izanagi.Itachi is very smart..
Intellect
Itachi has been shown to be analytical and perceptive, being able to deduce the inner workings and weaknesses of powerful techniques, even while under pressure. He orchestrated his battle against Sasuke to bring about his desired outcomes, and even account for the possibility that his plan wouldn't go as intended by sealing his powerinto Sasuke and placing a special crow inside of Naruto Uzumaki. Even Tobi himself admitted that if he hadn't kept a few secrets from Itachi he would be dead.On top of his perceptive skills, Kabuto also noted that Itachi possessed skill in deception due to Itachi's ability to read people's feelings, and this made him a ninja of lies up until his death.
