Rasenshuriken would have injured the 3rd Raikage if he wasn't an edo

[Dantee]

If it didn't do no damage than you would just stand right though that's what doing no damage means. Naruto never said it had no effect. Why do they have to mention it? But he did tank it if that was Living Madara he would have been killed.

It knocked him back that doesn't mean it did damage to his body. The manga showed nothing about edo tensei regenerating him so it's just an assumption you are making. Furthermore after the raikage got back up the people went on to talk about how powerful the 3rd is. Right after Naruto said My rasenshuriken had no effect in the link I gave you.

Madara got hit by preta path and began regenerating but the 3rd didn't even regenerate. Madaras body isnt anymore durable than it was when he was alive.

 

[RikudoKami]

He tanked the RS get over it.. His body would start to regenerate if it caused damage Or if it killed him. Stop overrating naruto.

 

[shogun973]

it dropped him but edo had nothing to do with him eating it, you would see edo fixing him

I guess Knocking Back = No Damage by your logic so ok. The manga really has to show us? That's a assumption your making too that the edo tensei didn't regenerate him it's hard to see if the edo tensei regenerated his body on the page where the rasenshuriken hit. I think you meant this page

Anyway it's possible that it was due to edo tensei the Rasenshuriken is a slicing technique that pierces the cells in your body so it's impossible to endure it.

Lol, no Kakuzu wasn't even close to dying, but i will admit Rasenshuriken did the whole damage, but why would Kakashi use an S-rank Jutsu "Raikiri" to kill someone who's dying?

Wasn't close to dying? Says you. Is that why he said he was beaten? The Rasenshuriken creates countless microscopic wind-blades that damage the body on a cellular level. It produces so many individual strikes that even Kakashi is unable to count them all with his Sharingan. The wind blades sever nerve channels in the body, leaving the target unable to move after being struck. They also attack the chakra circulatory system, which cannot be repaired by any form of medical ninjutsu. He wasn't surviving that, kakashi wanted to take the responsibility of finishing kakuzu, doing so with one of his favorite jutsu while explaining to kakuzu why he was defeated. It would be very anticlimactic if Naruto one shotted kakuzu and they all just left after all of that fighting lol. Kakashi finishing kakuzu off with raikiri was probably one of the flashiest ways to finish him(a kunai would be lame).

No the manga has always showed us when an Edo gets harmed they regenerate from the technique. I'm not assuming anything because if we go by what we see his body wasn't harmed by Rasenshuriken. Naruto even mentions it had no effect.

Rasenshuriken attacking the cells is meaningless when the lightning sheild is the thing protecting the third in the 1st place.

There is a different between beaten and killed the matter of a fact is Kakuzu was still alive after the Rasenshuriken and you said the attack destroys ever cell on the opponents body just by that Kakuzu should have died in a matter of a seconds let alone still alive.

Edit: The 3rd Railkage was knocked down do to the attack.... the Rasenshuriken is a heavy attack itself even if it doesn't do damage to the opponent it's still knocks the person do to it's heavy attack.

Maybe it was one of those times they didn't show us? Even if he didn't regenerate he dosen't have chakra network or an cells since he dosen't have a human body but with a human body the Rasenshuriken would have severly injured him. His raiton armor cant protect his cels though.

I find it hard to believe Kishi would miss that important detail about rasenshuriken damaging the 3rd. I understand what you're trying to say, but the raiton armour will protect the 3rd from being attacked from the cells. Why? because Rasenshuriken is still an external attack and because the 3rds armour is protecting him no attack to the cells will take place.

 

[Naruto king of Shinobi]

There is a different between beaten and killed the matter of a fact is Kakuzu was still alive after the Rasenshuriken and you said the destroys ever cell on the opponents just by that Kakuzu should died in less than 3 second let alone still alive.

What I said about it destroying on a cellular level is what the manga said. So I guess according to you the manga is wrong? You said he wasn't even close to dying, which is very wrong. Kakuzu was obviously a tough bastard, which is why he lived for a bit longer before getting finished off. You also said the rasenshuriken couldn't even kill kakuzu, implying that it is weak or something. Well I got news for you, the rasenshuriken that Naruto used against the 3rd raikage and against the 6pop is different than the one he used against kakuzu(its more powerful/perfected). After Naruto learns to throw the Rasenshuriken, the damage is greatly increased; not only is it capable of cutting through rocky mountains, but when Pain's Human Path is struck by it, most of its body is DISINTEGRATED, leaving only the top of its head. Edo 3rd tanked it because he was an even tougher bastard than kakuzu....but if kakuzu was hit by the same rasenshuriken there would be nothing left for kakashi to even finish off.

 

[Retsu]

I got into an argument about this in another thread and I agree, ppl forget that even if it doesn't kill you it's like 128 hyuuga palms in a can, you cannot fight after it attacks the chakra network, the raikage was unaffected because he was an edo, rasenshuriken can't destroy the chakra system of edo's, but does that even surprise anyone?

 

[Kronnic]

Believe it or not, the Rasenshuriken is probably one of the best jutsu ever created because it creates countless microscopic wind-blades that damage the body on a cellular level. It produces countless individual strikes that even a Sharingan user cannot count them. The wind blades sever nerve channels in the body, leaving the target unable to move after being struck. They also attack the chakra circulatory system, which cannot be repaired by any form of medical ninjutsu. Depending on the severity of the damage, the victim may not be able to perform a technique ever again...
It was not created for killing because that is not who Naruto is.

Yeah i already know the Rasenshuriken that Naruto used in Sage Mode in the Pain Arc is a lot more powerful than the one he used against Kakuzu and yes Kakuzu have been completely destroyed by the Rasenshuriken Naruto use against the 3rd Railkage, but we know the history of the third Railkage's body.

 

[Great Sage of Uchiha]

Yes you are correct ... Also wind is stronger than lightining.

no it's not, they cancel each other out. might what to provide some proof before making dumb statements.

 

[LeEvilTongue]

Rasenshuriken didn't do shit to him. The point of the 3rd Raikage, plotwise, was to show Naruto that tactics also are essential if one wishes to defeat an opponent (and that he needed to develop a stronger jutsu).
