Because of Kisame( Under strict orders from Akatsuki), he knew Itachi was stronger than him, plus Itachi knew he had to put a mark to warn Danzo, Kakashi himself couldnt figure out why Itachi didnt kill him.
As much as i love the J-man
itachi never had the intent of killing anyone , even the fact that he tried to get Naruto was to distract the akatsuki from his plan
All of this time Itachi was preventing the akatsuki from attacking the konoha, ony after his death pain attacked it
they are equall in class , but the edge goes to itachi , there is too much of Raw uchiha power in it .
Precisely! Just because Itachi said that he couldn't defeat Jiraiya with his life and that even more men (Akatsuki) wouldn't change the outcome doesn't mean that the statement was false, nor does him being a spy only there to warn Konohagakure elite, nor does the fact that he had no specific knowledge of Jiraiya make it so! Therefore, we should believe that statement to be true until proven false absolutely. It's simple, really.

Im only stating a fact. Itachi said that even more backup wouldnt change outcome of battle. So Im asking you: do you really believe that Jiraiya can take on Itachi, Kisame and lets say Sasori and Deidara and win? I dont think so, considering that Itachi alone has technique that is OHKO for Jiraiya (Amaterasu). When one kage-level shinobi faces four kage-level shinobis the outcome of battle is very clear. Itachi was simply overstating Jiraiyas strenght.
Sasuke tamed Manda via genjutsu, and Itachi is superior in that apsect when you compare him to his younger bother.
Just like Manda is no ordinary snake. So what id they are gen-specialist? So is Kurenai or Shii, yet genjutsu worked just fine on them. Genjutsu masters sre not immune to genjutsu, unless they have Sharingan, that is.
To seal Amaterasu Jiraiya had to:
1. Pull out the scroll
2. Kneel on the ground with scroll
3. Write sealing formula on it
4. And only then he was able to seal Amaterasu. Something like that is simple impossible to do during combat, let alone when you are facing Amaterasu.[/QUOTE
first off again.....You are talking about jiraiya in normal form with the sealing thing. and you don't have to sharingan to know your in gen jutsu my god now i really know your a fan boy let me try explain to you then.
SAGE MODE=Senjutsu ( Literally meaning "Sage Techniques") refers to a specialised field of techniques that allows the user to sense and then gather the natural energy ( shizen enerugī) around a person. Senjutsu practitioners can then learn to draw the energy of nature inside of them blending it with their own chakra (created from spiritual and physical energy within the shinobi), adding a new dimension of power to the sage's chakra, resulting in the creation of "senjutsu chakra" (, senjutsu chakura). This chakra cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have been trained in senjutsu.
This new chakra enables the user to enter an empowered state called Sage Mode, which can then drastically increase the strength of all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu. A person who is able to use senjutsu is called a sage ( sennin). It would seem that it stems from the toads of Mount Myōboku, as only Shima, Fukasaku, Jiraiya and Naruto have been seen using it. Gamakichi and Gamabunta also seem to be familiar with it. A prerequisite to being able to use Senjutsu is that the user must have a great reservoir of chakra themselves in order to manipulate the natural energy.
Now tell me something your gen jutsu is increase the 2 frogs are sage itachi would be fighting 3 sage, look how Jiraiya did, fighting someone who has the most powerful eye in all of Naruto which is the RENNIGAN something the 6th path had are you fliping serious right now? Look how bloody fast jiraiya is 3.42 second of this
that said it all-and just so you know pein is stronger than itachi in every shape and form itachi would never have lasted long in that fight with pein as jiraiya did.
The user's physical strength, speed, stamina, reflexes, and durability dramatically increase, to the point where they could fall face first into a bed of spikes and receive no injury nor feel pain whatsoever.
The user's ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu become more powerful.
The user can harness the natural energy surrounding them, turning it into an extension of their body, which increases the reach of their attacks.
The user gains the ability to sense chakra around them.
Being in SM woudnt change anything. He would still have to kneel on the ground, write sealing formula etc. Doing something like that while facing Amaterasu is suicide.
and you don't have to sharingan to know your in gen jutsu
I was saying about being immune to genjutsu. There is no basis to say that frogs wouldnt end up being cotrolled just like Manda, considering that taming summons is one of Sharingans special abilities. Even if Itachis normal Sharingan wouldnt be enough to tame Jiraiyas frogs, his MS would more than enough to do it.
so you know pein is stronger than itachi in every shape
Yeah, I know very well that Pain is superior to Itachi. Thing is, if Jiraiya fought all six paths from the very beginning of battle, he would get raped very fast.
Itachi > Jiraiya
yea, jiraiya can beat itachi..its hard to actually say it but its the truth,obviously u can see that none of itachis eye techs will work on jiraiya...tsukuyomi,amaterasu(becuase of his speed and knowledge of it)... jiraiya beats itachi hands down on taijutsu and strength..idk about susanoo tho
oh i'll explain since u think its funy xd...amatersu, if sasuke with out MS can dodge it , what makes u think jiraiya cant =\...and the only reason why he pulled out the scroll thing and sealed the black flames was becuase they were gonna keep burning that building if itachi didnt stop it, if they were in the middle of a field that wouldnt matter..tsukuyomi,hmm hard to saybecause jiraiya isnt good with gen, but if he was in SM it wouldnt matter..and on the note that itachi can control ma and pa is so funny, how can u control a summn that cn do gen jutsu and ninjutsu, the hell they fight like ninja, that was the dumbest thing someone has said..and anyway susanoo, not that hard to get past somthin like that in sm, i would say used black swamp tech..and then try to use brute force..but idk im just sayin, is it still funny now..just wanted u to see that i wasnt a fan boy of jman and that im actually aware of what both of them are capable of ty

Itachi > Jiraiya
man just go back and read manga and look at thing you see, because if you did you would clearly understand that he wouldn't have to kneel he can write on anything and seal it in the object or person. 2 don't compare the elder frogs to orchimari mindless power hungry snake, the elder frogs are diff than normal summons their mind's and knowledge are totally diff(read what i told you about sage and stop skipping over it-read the key points they can sense chakra which means sensing if there chakra has be disrupted itachi would have to fight 3 people in 1 body puting 1 in gen jutsu and the other will counter it man i am not even going to bother with you maybe someone else here is general even to explain because i am tired of repeating my self.
I was speaking in behalf of Jiraiyatards the whole time I've been in this thread. I just want to try what's it's like to be in out of an ordinary person. No flame spewing!
Shall we stop this. At the end of the day its up to kishi who wins the fight.
But from the techniques, intellect and skill of itachi tells me that he would beat jiraiya regardless of what itachi said in part 1 which we all know why he said what he did
Fanboy would write: "Itachi rapes!". Fan knows when his favorite character would lose, and is giving arguments provided by manga when he thinks that his favorite character wins. Its quite a difference.
