Well since my previous thread was closed, i decided to recreate the thread with some little modifications because it seems that some Itachi fans don't agree with me concerning Tsukuyomi especially

How SM Jiraya counters Itachi's genjutsus:
How Jiraya counters Amaterasu:
How does Jiraya counter Susanoo:
These are the reasons why i believe SM Jiraya has all what it takes to defeat Itachi

How SM Jiraya counters Itachi's genjutsus:
In SM, Jiraya has Pa and Ma on his shoulders all the time, which means that the use of genjutsu will be useless since they could just disturb his chakra like the partner method works. In this case, only Tsukuyomi could be a problem since it takes effect in an instant, but personally i believe that the fact that Jiraya continuously receive sennin mode chakra makes the use of even tsukuyomi useless against him:
For those who don't believe in what i said, there is still counters for Tsukuyomi that Jiraya can use like using
People always fail to realise that genjutsu(in particularly tsukuyomi) isn't automatic. A direct eye contact is needed for genjutsu and even when this direct eye contact happens, Itachi still has to concentrate the chakra necessary for the genjutsu rapidely and cast the genjutsu at that exact same moment. Furthermore, tsukuyomi is a MS jutsu, so Itachi has to activate MS to even begin to think about using tsukuyomi. Itachi can't cast tsukuyomi with Sharingan let alone without it. If Jiraya notices that Itachi turned his Sharingan into MS, again, he would be more cautious. Also, tsukuyomi is even described in the databook as a

, so if Jiraya uses long range attacks and fight carefully, i don't see why he would be trapped by tsukuyomiHow Jiraya counters Amaterasu:
Jman already has
Jman with his superior speed/taijutsu and sensing abilities could do the same if not better. Jiraya who even already has knowledge on the jutsu, also has natural counters for this like
In Sage Mode, he even has sensing abilities, and we've seen that a sensor like Nagato could

the target(it's the reason why eventhough it almost appeared on Raikage, he had time to shunshin out of the way) and

depending on where the user focuses. What i mean by that is that if a target is outside the range of amaterasu, it would be easier for him to notice it and therefore counter it with something in his arsenal. Sasuke for example was able
