Sumoning Jutsu- Amateratsu easily destroys them, no question
Tsukiyomi/other genjutsu-Can easily control ANY of Jiraiya's sumonings including ma and pa, if Nagoto can control multiple animals with his rinnegan, why cant itachi control animals with his sharingan? Kurama was controlled, Manda was controlled, the Mizukage was controlled, so the probabilty that frogs can be controlled is very high, without sage mode jiriaya will get caught in genjutsu but probally has SOME way to escape it becase he is a sanin
Giant Rasengan-This wont go thru Yata Shield but it could probaly take out susano from behind with the speed if sage mode
Sage Mode-Takes Quite a LONG time to charge into sage mode and without the speed of sage mode, jiraiya could easily be caught in Tsukiyomi or amateratsu without the aid of sage mode, leading jiaiya to his death
Amateratsu-One of the faster katon techniques in the series and with flames that burn hotter than the sun, can kill anyone in moments without the speed of sae mode and with how long it takes for sage mode to activate, Jiriaya is sure to die from it
SUMMARY: with al of the information shown above If itachi and Jiriaya were to fight all itachi would need to do is use amateratsu whuch jiriaya cannot dodge without the aid of sage mode which needs to be charged in order to use, if jiraiya can get into sage mode then he defeats itachi with speed and giant rasengan and immunity to genjutsu, but thats gunna be hard to do when you have to charge for 5 minutse and somehow strive to dodge amateratu which is impossible with his current state, Itachi dosnt even need to use susano to defeat jiriaya charging into sage mode so he wont be loosing stamina,sooooo
Itachi wins no matter what anyone says
Face the facts
In Sasuke's fight with Itachi, Sasuke managed to dodge the Amateratsu flames by moving...If you saw the Pain Versus Jiraiya fight then you know he was able to move AND even attack while he was prepping for sage mode. So then why could Jiraiya simply not move out of the way of the flames?
Well I was unaware he would just sit there and take it...even if he had trouble getting out of the way, what's to prevent him from hiding in the belly of a random toad while he sets up his sage mode?
Your points about controlling the toad summons is valid, but remember that Jiraya possesses a vast amount of knowledge on sealing and barrier techniques. I refer back to the fight between Tobi and Minato here for a moment.
Keeping in mind Minato was Jiraiya's student, we saw minato seperate Tobi's control from Kurama using a sealing technique. Given the severe speed enhancements sage mode provides what's to stop Jiraiya from using that speed to get close to Itachi and seperate his control of said toad summonings?
Let's also consider the fact that I'm sure controlling an animal with the Sharingan is not a chakra free technique. And if we're talking high level fighting and comparing Itachi's stamina to Jiraiya's then I doubt he can control these summons, defend/attack Jiraiya, and use Susaonoo' all at the same time. We know Itachi does not possess the stamina for a long drawn out fight.
I understand Susanoo' is a damn good defensive technique, and I'm not arguing that but Itachi know's his limits. He's not going to spam this technique the whole fight, at least not if he plans on controling Jiraiya's summonings as well as use Amateratsu and genjutsu techniques. If we're being realistic, then this fight goes to Jiraiya hands down.
BUT since this isn't a jiraiya vs anyone thread, I'll just say again that he is underestimated too damn much!
He is a sanin! Not some push over Shinobi. He's trained some of the strongest ninja in Naruto, and has tons of knowledge on different countries, jutsu, and organizations.
He's undoubtedly one of the strongest characters in Naruto, but his strength and intelligence is undervalued.
Nice one i agree Itachi is strong no doubt but Jman counters his abilitys
