I HATE izanami. I think if i've ever ranted about anything on this thread, it's what a crappy deus ex machina asspull move Izanami is, you may as well call it 'Defeat Kabuto No Jutsu' it's so convenient. Izanami was pulled outta nowhere and will never be seen again. And there were so many better alternatives as to how the Uchiha bros could defeat this guy.

This is my personal take on how the fight should've been handled.

(The fight is exactly the same up until the point Izanami starts to be used, Kabuto has terraformed the cave using Sound 4 powers and has lost a horn)

SASUKE: Where'd that snake go? Is he hiding?

ITACHI: Sasuke, stay back! He's become one with the cave, one with the shadows.

SASUKE: Meaning?

ITACHI: It's no metaphor, he has some kind of affinity with the earth, meaning- he can strike from any angle.

SASUKE: ...Then what do we do? Wait him out
[Itachi stares off into the shadows, imagining a snake watching ready to strike]

ITACHI: You can't wait out a snake.

KABUTO: [voice only] Are you struggling Uchiha brothers? You should take some time out and work on those daddy issues of yours, maybe fix the broken family problems you created?

ITACHI: How long are you going to keep impersonating others Kabuto? Do you know who you truly are?

KABUTO: ...Do you? The tragic tale of Itachi Uchiha. The weapon. The killer of his own clan, how do you know that you truly know your true self? And little Sasuke Uchiha. You've been lied to more times than you can remember, how do you know you're doing what the REAL Sasuke would want? Those eyes aren't the same I saw back in that Forest all those years ago. You're not you at all are you? Come with me, I can guide you.

ITACHI: Don't try and taunt us, you're wasting your breath. Don't you dare talk to my brother.

KABUTO: Oh it's fine, he's basically mine anyway. *snickers* why would I need to taunt you? You can do that all by.... yourself!

[Kabuto's torso reaches through the far ceiling and casts a summoning sign]

SASUKE: There! [Sasuke uses amateresu into the distance, 20+ coffins appear out of the ground, taking the hit of the flame. Out of there emerge many cloaked black haired figures]

ITACHI: [disgusted] You really have fallen to a new low.

SASUKE: No..

[The figures of the many corpses rise and grab their swords, shuriken and handsigns. Inside are fallen members of the Uchiha clan. Amongst them Fugaku Uchiha, Mikoto Uchiha, Setsuna Uchiha and many other unknown ninja- their personalities are restricted, they charge at the two, unable to control their actions, Sasuke is frozen solid whilst Itachi remorselessly and coldly charges forward at the crowd of the undead, fighting the much weaker members of the Uchiha off without looking them in the eye]

KABUTO: Watch Itachi Uchiha! Watch as he kills his family, his own CLAN without remorse! The clan killer! Ahahahaha!
[A pack of Uchiha undead attack Sasuke, he grabs them with the Susanoo arm]

EDO MIKOTO: ..Sas...uke?.. [Sasuke FREAKS]

ITACHI: Sasuke, they're not real! They are long dead, he's trying to fight us psychologically, do not let him win.

[Itachi and Sasuke fight them off until it becomes clear they have overcome them. Kabuto abandons the fodder and turns into his snake form, striking at the defenses lowered Itachi. Sasuke reacts perfectly, cutting the snake in half with his sword. Kabuto comes out of the snakes mouth and cackles insanely]

KABUTO: You will be mine Sasuke! I can be your caring big brother, the one that proud bastard never was! Ahahahaa

ITACHI: You're a mess Snake...give it up. Call off the edo tensei jutsu.

KABUTO: You want to see a real snake? Let me show you the true embodiment of my power! My rage!
[Kabuto does another summoning, but this time the casting causes a rumble, Itachi grabs Sasuke and shields him with the Susanoo as the cave explodes, the ceiling destroyed as Kabuto summons Manda II, a summon on a ridiculous scale.]

ITACHI: Wow. Any clue what to do about this one?

SASUKE: That's no snake...

You must be registered for see images


ITACHI: Have you noticed? The snake is rabid, it's barely following his command.
[Manda II strikes at the two who split up, both forming their Susanoo and battling it, miniscule in comparison. Kabuto sticks to it's back, casting jutsu whilst riding the beast around the new open battlefield, a cave in ruins. Itachi reminds Sasuke of the boar mission and they strike the beast in the head- burning it alive with amateresu, their fire effective but tiny in scale to the gigantic snake, Itachi uses Yasaka Magatama & Sasuke uses Kirin, taking the beast down]

[Kabuto stands before them, his cloak in ruins and a crazed look in his eye as he worms his way through Itachi and Sasuke's susanoo punches, using Kimimaro's Digital Shrapnel which hits Sasuke in the collarbone.]

KABUTO [giggling]: Well, you've outdone yourself Uchiha Brothers, truly we've made it into shinobi history with this fight, a battle to last the ages!

SASUKE: He's lost it.

ITACHI: Still talking about legends and identities. Is there any Kabuto in there? Anything at all?

KABUTO: You don't know a THING about me you smug Uchiha, I refused to be spoken down to by someone like you!

ITACHI: I'm trying to help you.

KABUTO: You're trying to help yourself! Everything you've ever done has been selfish! You lie to yourself and think
yourself a self-sacrificing hero but leaving Sasuke alive, ruining his life- you're selfish, just like me. This is your last
stand Itachi Uchiha.

ITACHI: Don't do it.

SASUKE: You're bluffing! You have nothing in that stolen arsenal of yours left! You've played your hand.

KABUTO: Did you forget I have an army? *evil grin* an army THAT FOLLOW MY EVERY COMMAND.
[Kabuto summons 5 coffins, the few remaining edo tensei from the battlefields- Zabuza Momochi, The 2nd Mizukage, Pakura, Gari and Kakazu]

SASUKE: No way...

ITACHI: Kabuto please, don't do this.

KABUTO: Didn't consider this did you?! That's what you get for GOING UP AGAINST A GENIUS PRODIGY LIKE ME! THAT'S WHO I AM! KABUTO YAKUSHI, THE MIGHTY SNAKE SAGE, THE ULT-*hysterically crying, in an insane fit*

SASUKE: We can't do this Itachi! We're running low, this fight has gone on too long- we just haven't got enough.

ITACHI:....Watch.
[Zabuza Momochi walks forward, looking back at his caster, the disfigured, wreck of what Kabuto used to be]

KABUTO: Now! Attack!

EDO ZABUZA: ...No. [He grins, slowly turning around against the pull of the weakening seal on him] ...you won't control me any longer.
[The other remaining edo similarly turn around facing their pitiful caster, Zabuza has a demonic glare in his eyes]

ITACHI: How long are you going to keep imitating people Kabuto? Who are you?
[Kabuto backs away, hysterically giggling as he desperately thinks of a way out]

KABUTO: How?! I made myself immortal! I'm the mastermind, i'm the successor of the Sage of the Six Paths!

ITACHI: [starts walking towards Kabuto] You're NOBODY. A successor of nothing.

KABUTO: Get away from me!

ITACHI: You started a war. Disrespected the dead for your own needs, stole the talents and powers of others...and now you don't even have enough strength or skill to stand, nevermind controls these poor bastardisations of yours.

KABUTO: HELP ME!

ITACHI: *still walking* I'm sorry, I really am. You're just another ruined product of this world, your quest for power and identity lost you yourself and lost you your sanity...and now it's lost you everything.

KABUTO: No! It doesn't end like this! I want to BE SOMEBODY!
[Kabuto desperately tries to undo the jutsu, weaving the signs, ending the jutsu. But not soon enough to face their judgement. The edo tensei attack at once, off-panel killing whatever is left of Kabuto Yakushi, the caster is killed and the edos disappear, ascending into the sky]

ITACHI: ...I want to be nobody.

Nope. I killed Kabuto like a little b*tch in my version. Try again.

Kabuto has to lose regardless of what happens, but Izanami is a sh*t plot device.

Nah, his control has been weakened. It's been constantly shown that he can decide how much control he can have over a corpse so him at the very end of a long fight with no chakra and desperate wouldn't be able to hold them back.

Better than introducing a new magic BS jutsu taking 10 whole pages of diagrams to explain it and then never seeing it again.

I don't get your point? :')

I'm not insulting Itachi? If anything Itachi wins in a way more badass way in this version. It's just izanami as a jutsu I don't like.

Izanami was a BS jutsu made for the sole purpose of beating Kabuto. Like how coincidental is it that Itachi just happens to know this jutsu that allows people to find their true selves? Tailor made for Kabuto's defeat. That battle started brilliantly but took a turn for the worse after that. Worst part is, Itachi was about to get sealed anyway, so it didn't matter of he had his Sharingan or not! Nothing I hate more than asspulls like Izanami.
Anyway, amazingly written numbers; wouldn't expect anything less! Favorite part was the Uchiha clan being summoned :cool:

I love certain parts of it, like Kabuto summoning the Uchiha clan.
But I did not like the ending. Too dark for someone who didn't deserve any of this u_u

Thank you! And yeah, way too true buddy. That's Kishi's most blatant cop-out in my opinion, at least with Deidara or Sasori killing himself it makes sense.

It kind of works for Itachi to have Izanami because wasn't he hiding his true self throughout most of the story? I don't consider Izanami a dues ex machina , I think its a cool looking jutsu & he made Kabuto shutting off his eyesight for the sole purpose of presenting Izanami. Him shutting off his eyesight happened like 1 chapter before Izanami was announced. I think he wanted to introduce another jutsu plus for Kabuto to potentially turn against Orochimaru whom he thought he was at some point during the fight. Kabuto being able to acquire all of his new powers so easily all on his own all of a sudden was pretty overwhelming in the first place & that many edo tensei summons from 1 person at once. The fight could've easily taken a different turn without Izanami.

There's like a 100 better routes than Izanami in my opinion, if you don't like mine that's fine but mine wasn't a deus ex machina :)
And he managed to summon all of the army at once...and he manages it in Rejects filler and Chikara as well. Also the Uchiha aren't very strong so that'd make it easier to summon.

The ending is nice, but I'd be hard pressed to believe the Edo Tensei could defeat Kabuto. But overall, nice battle scenario. Woulda preffered it or Orochimaru taking ownership of Kabuto mid fight,.

Oh this IS literally a Kabuto who can barely stand at this point. He's gone all-out on power overestimating his own powers, I mean he's been cut in half, battered, set on fire, exhausted ALL his chakra...he used his last attack on trying to undo the jutsu in time which left him open.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!
and I actually see that as an interesting but really sick ending to Kabuto's character- being LITERALLY consumed by Orochimaru. IMO that's MUCH darker than killing him.
