Sakura wins.

And yes people, physical attacks affect her. Otherwise Obito wouldn't have been able to lay a hand on her.
I. Assumption. Chakra enhanced punch will affect Konan.
II. Evidence. Obito was able to land a hand on her.​

I. A fact. Obito laying his hand on her . Her danger lay in his subsequent action- the onset of his use of Kamui, which would have dragged her to another dimension had she not detonated her Kibaku Fudas.[ ]
II. Commentary. Thus, the act of Obito laying a hand on Sakura is insufficient evidence to definitively declare that she would be affected by Sakura's punches. All it proves is that Konan is tangible, which no one ever challenged. While Konan is utilizing her Shikigami no Mai technique, blunt damage will have no effect on her paper body which lacks internal organs or anything vital to Konan's survival. Likely, the force of the punch would disperse her body into thousands of papers; a futile effort, since Konan can her paper body quite easily after it is .
III. Conclusion. Konan takes this low difficulty- dispersing into , and Sakura, followed by hundreds of Kibaku Fudas is enough to reduce Sakura to a pile of ash.

Lmao @ the format.

However, no. He simply grabbed her. Obviously he didn't do any damage. If he can physically grab her then she can be hit meaning she will take damage. How does her lacking internal organs mean that she can't be damaged in her paper form? Punches cause external and internal injuries.

Bold is likely, but then again when has her body ever shown that reaction to physical attacks? She could probably disperse herself in an attempt to evade though.

As for the last bit, no. She disperses and Sakura and blows her and her paper away. This continues until Konan has no stamina left or until Sakura knocks her straight into Katsuyu's Acid and kills her.

Konan strangles her but with the slug it might give Sakura the edge. However, Konan can use Pein summons so it evens out. Konan wins low-mid diff by strangulating Sakura.

@KidGamer,

Konan let Obito grab her on purpose so that she could trick him into using Kamui which allows her to blow him up. She can split away so Sakura only hits a small fraction of her paper with a single punch.

Though I suppose Sakura wins high difficulty.

Sakura takes this. She can outlast Konan easily with her evasion and Byakugou, and it would be only a matter of time until Sakura lands a blow in which case it would be over.

That doesn't change the fact that she has a corporeal form. That just means Konan chose not to evade. She can always attempt to split apart before getting hit, but otherwise she has a physical form. Sakura's attacks can be pinpoint with her fist or widespread with a shockwave so she'll take the damage either way.

So yes. Sakura wins, but with mid difficulty and nothing higher.

This made sense until you got to the bold. How does the fact that she can be hit prove that she will take damage? That is why the Obito point is irrelevant. Like I said Paper Konan lacks internal organs or anything vital to her survival. She's just...paper. Get a stack of paper and try punching it, I promise you that all that happens is the paper will be scattered everywhere.

@Underline- Konan has never been hit with a blunt physical attack, but the best comparison I can think of is Edo Tensei bodies and how they are seemingly made up of a bunch of flakey paper-like substances. Look what happens when . It will be a similar case here and just like Edo Tensei her paper body will reform. Not like this matters because like you said Konan can just disperse every time Sakura comes near her.

Send me the chapter for that scan. How a part 1 Sakura managed to deflect Temari's wind with a punch makes no sense to me, but that seems to be what the scan is showing. In that case, Konan just disperses than forms a paper clone filled with paper bombs, then when Sakura gets near to punch her the clone suicide-bombs itself along with Sakura. If that doesn't finish her off then a will.

That's not part 1, fam, that's Part 3. That's adult Sakura as hard as it may be to tell with that art. Sakura hit the roof falling on top of her with her fist. Not the air mind you.

Uh, no. If you hit a stack of paper hard enough and in the right manner it’ll crumple or rip. Konans physical body being made of paper doesn’t mean said paper can’t be damaged, and it takes chakra for her to maintain said form thus it’ll take chakra for her to reform or fix her paper.

:lol That’s the Boruto Manga Chapter 3 and it shows Sakuras punch creating a shockwave large enough to destroy the debris. Then Temari blows it away. The shockwave blows Konan into Katsuyus acid and it’s good game from there. Turning into paper doesn’t stop her from being blown away so this doesn’t even address the post.

I can hope you are joking with the rest of this statement. A bunch of paper bombs aren’t killing or doing lasting damage to a Byakugo user and her paper shuriken can be easily evaded or blown away with her punch. Meanwhile she has no realistic counter to shockwave punch into Acid.

I want to see some evidence on your side that supports the notion that paper will crumple or rip from Sakura's punch. I already stated that it would just cause the paper to disperse like it did with Tsunade punching an Edo Tensei body and you even admitted that outcome is likely. No one ever said paper can't be damaged, only that Sakura's punch is not going to hurt a mass of paper.

Ah, it looked like part 1 Sakura in the scan. Anyway let's take the bolded statement and elaborate on what that really means. Let's say Sakura summons Katsuyu, and tells her to spew acid all over the ground while Konan disperses into a million paper airplanes. Then she jumps up over the mass of dispersed paper and creates a shockwave directed downward at the paper. This is what you're saying she will do, right? Sakura's shockwave is very as you can see in the scan you used as evidence. MAYBE a tiny fraction of those papers will be swept into the acid but so what? As long as a single paper survives she can multiply that single paper into thousands. A can be multiplied into within the span of a few seconds. She completely reformed her destroyed arm which is a better regeneration feat than Sakura or Tsunade has ever shown. So there is no chance of that acid puddle killing Konan argument flying here.

A bunch of paper bombs aren't doing damage to a Byakogou user? They were enough to blow Obito's arm off. Sakura can't regenerate limbs. And I know Sakura can deflect or dodge a paper shuriken in an ordinary situation, but not a well-timed one if Konan plays her cards right. Think about it, a rushes Sakura and tries to explode in her face. Let's say Sakura reacts and blows the clone away, but the smoke and noise of the explosion is enough of a distraction for her not to notice a paper shuriken from behind her which takes her head off. Konan is just too diverse for Sakura. Better sensing, better regeneration, possibly even better chakra reserves considering she detonated 600 billion paper bombs over the span of ten minutes. If you reply again don't oversimplify any scenarios and use evidence.

Sakura switches from a fist, to an extension of her fingers (like the 3rd Raikage), while still applying CES. Konan's paper is pierced lol? Do you seriously need proof that paper will crumble/rip if punched?



Come on now lol.

Sakura mid diff her with Katsuya. Though, by herself I don't know. She definitely can outlast konan non prep with the paper bomb sea. She can't possibly keep up with Sakura's healing while depleting her chakra.

Sakura can probably figure out her paper bombs before she has intel on byakugo and she can surprise her. But CES should surprise her anyway because she might think it's an ordinary punch. The chakra infused will probably hurt her.

Sakura has been though to apply medical ninjutsu to her punches (Against Kido). She could use that to hurt Konan as well without her initially realizing.

Edit: Said the last part because like Kido if she damages her without her realizing thinking her punches are not working. She could notice too late like him and then she can catch her in a more physical form and that's a rap
