[VS] Kurotsuchi VS Sakura (taijutsu fight)

[Icelerate]

When was this? all i remember her doing are heavy linear kicks. Straightforward and obvious movements like the ones she shown would get her punished by superior and much quicker counter-reactive Wing Chun Kicks.

I also like how extra emphasis is placed on Kuro's legs.

When she kicked Madara's susanoo as well as the ground but I guess those aren't good examples to prove my point.

In which scans was this emphasis placed? When she punched Kinshiki?

-Nope , they are not.

-When she first appeared. Her attire expresses her legs.

And her stance points to her using Wing Chun which is one of the best fighting styles.

I guess Kurotsuchi showing her legs wasn't just fan service after all. It had a bigger purpose to showcase her taijutsu stance.

LOL seems to be the case. Would be great to see some more feats from this style in Boruto because they have some badass moves.

I'd rather get more ninjutsu feats from her but my prediction is that this manga will give screen time to just team Boruto, Naruto and Sasuke.

-I'd rather have both Tai feats combined with Nin feats , like using tai to create a opening for nin or vice-versa.
I think they will cover the other kids from the villages also , which will time for the kages to show-off one way or another.

Hopefully you are right. BTW I'm pretty sure that she can use chakra enhanced strength because even someone as physically strong as base Gai can't punch Kinshiki that hard.

Doton: Weighted Boulder Jutsu, perhaps?

Also what if it is Kurotsuchi who opens up with a punch and not Sakura?

Wing chun is known for its unique structures, simultaneous blocking and striking, trapping, rapid vertical punches, a focus on using the shortest distance between two points as she did with her arm here.

Wing chun emphasizes simultaneous offense and defense, or interceptions, In tight Melee combat they incorporate techniques that include controlling the center with constant forward pressure by first exploiting a attack or jab , so if she were to attack then Sakura would react but would get outperformed in melee shortly after when she tries to counter attack or even if she doesn't since Kurotsuchi would pressure her.

Cant say that its CES and Gai could likely replicate the feat.

Kurotsuchi low diff .

 

[BLAZE]

Sakura is not putting kurotsuchi down here.She is not Tsunade.Even if we assume her taijutsu prowess is Tsunade lvl as adult she lacks the physical strength of senju+uzumaki.her punches and kicks won't do anything fatal to kurotsuchi
Her fighting style is based around regeneration; healing and Herculean strength so I doubt in this scenario she can push kurotsuchi more than mid diff

No the manga didn't say she used weighted boulder. Whenever it is first used by a character, the manga explicity makes it clear that it is that technique which is being used.

I equalized their physical power. That simply means Sakura's CES is now on par with what Kurotsuchi did to Kinshiki. Saying she's not strong enough is an irrelevant argument because it is false and because even if it was correct, the same applies to her opponent.

but manga does not always specify that its that jutsu.take case of sasuke's susanno:kagatsuchi or chakra scalpel and many others
she used hiding like a mole to reach there but manga didn't say that too

my bad i misunderstood it.if that is the case i can see it going either way tbh but then again i don't know much taijutsu feat from her except that she once hit that kinishiki dude

What if Sakura does this (

Yes sakura will obviously get advantage if any ninjutsu other than elemental style is allowed

Kurotsuchi should be at a level where she can react to a simple linear Shunshin hook punch. Sakura needed the bunshins to simultaneously mirror her movement in order to pull it off on Ino who has a 1 in Taijutsu with no style of martial arts meanwhile Kuro could tango with Kinchiki somewat.

Kurotsuchi should be able to react to her and then apply a variety of physical moves to choose from in order to counter a simple hook punch.

Or she could Block or trap while simultaneously attacking.

I don't think so.

Gai was able to destroy the same Giant Boulder guarding the akasuki cave that Sakura was tasked to destroy , i dont see why a clean hit from such power wouldn't send Kinchiki flying all the same. Maybe not as far but it would surely send him flying imo.

Kurotsuchi opens 8 gates and dominates her. Kurotsuchi negative difficulty

so I think his statement probably took into account taijutsu skill to a higher degree compared to ninjutsu.

lol and the fanfic manga continues so she not only somehow mastered chakra control strength that couldn't be physically rivaled/surpassed by anything that isn't related to massive chakra release similar to that of gates or bijuu strength etc (none of which she has) etc but she also learned lava release as well... I can't even. Anyway.. even thou sasuke drastically improved his physical feats, I always assume sakura physical punch still was above his, and in this manga sasuke's punch is comparable to what kuro did here. shouldn't sakura > sasuke and kuro? (which is still ridiculous, sasuke strength should be far above kuro's). if someone can explain that please.

side note: didn't sakura bruise kaguya's head?

Kurotsuchi always had lava release since Shippuden. It would make more sense for her to have weighted rock technique but from the looks of it, it looks more like CES to me. Kurotsuchi's strength is far inferior to Sakura's. Sending Momoshiki flying doesn't make Kurotsuchi stronger. I don't know much about Sasuke's physical strength but apparently he is physical equals with RSM Naruto so his physical strength should be far higher than Kurotsuchi and maybe Sakura.
