Raiton Chakra (cutting) vs. Tsunade's Durability

[Black Wolf]

Just to be clear, this is NOT a match-up. It is simply a test of a character's durability.

I'd like to ask whether or not the Raikage's pseudo-Chidori Raiton chops (NOT Lariat) can cut through Tsunade, WITHOUT any forms of regeneration active. This is the attack I speak of:



1. Chopping through Bijuu [Hachibi] limbs:

Please don't just vote; elaborate on your answers as well. If yes, I'd like to know why you believe Tsunade has greater-than-Bijuu-and-Susano'o level durability, and if no, please elaborate on why you think it will cut her.

 

[GokuEn]

Umm yes

I thought this was obvious

 

[Akasuna]

Raiton chakra, of course. A Raiton enhanced pencil nearly drilled through Kisame's skull. People oft get confused the actual meaning of enhanced durability; base Tsunade does not have enhanced durability. Kimmimaro, CM2 Sasuke, Kisame, these guys all have enhanced durability. Tsunade has nothing of the sort.

Raiton chakra was able to cut through a juubi jin :|

So yeah its cuts tsunade....

 

[LuckyMan]

Someone rustled your jimmies in Tsunade vs Ay?

Anyway, I think Ay can chop through Tsunade if he catches her off guard but if she is constantly on the offensive and prepared to take a hit, no he wont go through her.

 

[Black Wolf]

Jimmy's aren't rustled at all. Just wondering what Tsunade has done to warrant Bijuu-level or Susano'o level durability. Or even Raikage-level durability, when both endured the same exact teleportation jutsu, yet one was covered in cuts while the other unscratched. I'd like a basis to justify why her skin is harder than Susano'o, a Bijuu, or even the Raikage.

Again this isn't a match-up nor am I trying to turn it into one. I am purely talking about the durability of Tsunade's neck vs. 4th Raikage's Susano'o-busting Raiton chop, nothing more.

Well you know where I stand on it.

The Kusanagi could not cut Tsunade in half when Oro tried and its said to cut through anything.

 

[TheAncientCenturion]

@AkaSuna: To be fair, the pencil was quite possibly the pinnacle of raiton infused weaponry [

OT: Unless I am mistaken, Tsunade's durability isn't anything to the extreme extent or note worthy. At least, not so much from an average shinobi. Raiton will pierce and cut her body.

 

[Black Wolf]

Kusanagi blade cut right through her, though.

Orochimaru never lunged deep enough for it to actually cut her in half; he was slashing at her chest. If she was capable of tanking Kusanagi, it would not have cut her in the first place nor punch a hole right through her stomach and out the other side of her back. Her not getting cut in half is due to Orochimaru's style of attack, not her actual durability.

 

[adeshina365]

Raiton easily cuts this *****.

 

[BlackFlame44]

Raiton chakra was able to cut through a juubi jin :|

So yeah its cuts tsunade....

Scans Please?

 

[Black Wolf]

For the record guys, this is the 4th Raikage's Raiton chop which I have provided scans of in the main post.

Not touched-by-Hagoromo-enhanced-by-Senjutsu-and-god-knows-what-else-end-of-series Sasuke.

 

[Seventh Sama]

Scans Please?

sausage's blade has lightning running through it

Let's say that Raikage lateral chops Kakashi in the side, will Kakashi be bisected?

This has absolutely nothing to do with Tsunade's durability...

OT: Raiton can easily cut through her

 

[EdoItachi]

Yeah it would cut clean through her.

Keep up please. Kakashi has completely average durability. Thus by answering the question about Kakashi we get closer to an answer about Tsunade.
And simply in terms of physics. The only way Raikage is lopping something off of someone is when an opposite force is keeping that body part there. If raikage could just lop shit off of people, why didn't he and Oonoki lop of Madara's head and seal Madara?

That said: I think certain Raiton attack can cut through Tsunade. Kakashi and Sasuke come to mind here. I don't think it lies in Ay's arsenal generally.

 

[Black Wolf]

Sure, Kakashi will be bisected. Kakashi has displayed no significant durability feats whatsoever. We have no reason to believe that Kakashi is more durable than the Hachibi or Susano'o.

The only people who have proven durability is Kakuzu with Domu (which will be bypassed by Raiton anyway), the Raikage himself (who has tanked Chidori to the abdomen with minimal damage), the 3rd Raikage (who was tanking Rasenshurikens without damage), and Kimimaro (who was strolling out of sand burials that would normally turn a person to a puddle of blood).

 

[RicardoA]

You say this isn't a match-up, but in that case the title is misleading, because this isn't cutting raiton vs Tsunade's durability, this is Ay's attacks vs Tsunade's durability :|

OT: Realistically, in a gore free shonen, no character is getting bisected or finished in such manner w/o being able to survive the ordeal. There're multiple examples of this throughout the manga.

Madara's magatamas easily went through Gaara's sand and almost broke through Onoki's golem at the same time, later Tsunade tanked the same attack thrown at her gut with only a mild injury. Does that make her > Gaara's sand and Onoki's golem combined? No.
Its just a plot based inconsistency, logically such attack should've ripped her to shreads (she has proved her above average durability, but still, Gaara's sand is supposed to be a perfect defense, let alone in combination with a rock golem) but it didn't.

From the examples you gave, only one portrays chopping power.
Ay never cut Hachibi's horn, he broke it like a human can brake an apple in half, there's a difference.
Sasuke's susanoo wasn't either cut or broken, he simply bended it and managed to hit Sasuke.
Finally, regarding the third example. Its true that he was able to cut his own arm, but can he perform the same feat in battle? I don't mean cutting others, i mean performing the jutsu. Because it seems to work similarly to a chakra scalpel, and only the greatest can use it to such level.
Its either the above mentioned case or another inconsistency, because, against Madara that would come in very handy, yet he only used punches.

Raiton is great for piercing, not ideal to cut through things (that's Futon), yes, it would pierce her just fine, but completely cut through her, no (unless its Sasuke's chidori sharp spear enhanced by Hagoromo's power). This goes for her or any other character.

Edit: Lol it isn't an inconsistency at all, i forgot a little detail: the AB combo. There's a reason why it exists, and that's because Ay can't cut people like that (possibly no other Raiton user as well seeing as he should be a master at it).

none of them guys have shown the capability of fighting while their inner muscles were cut.. Tsunade has.

OT: Ay's raiton of course..
