Now another fallacy, used constantly, "Sakura is Slow"
Now let me start by saying Sakura is by no means on anyone above Kakashi's speed, but she isn't slow. Sakura is plagued by the rumor that she couldn't hit anybody. I feel like part of this is based on the thought process to associate strength with size and sluggishness. Now take time to comprehend that Sakura has NO REAL MUSCLE!!! She uses impeccable chakra control to create an epic release of force upon a target. That's not to say that she's weak without CES because she punches like an average ninja, but nothing slows her down when it comes to access to her strength.
Sakura is not slow. If she raced Usain Bolt, she would win.
She's a ninja and she is considered one of the new sannin which I'm pretty sure translates to legendary ninja.
No one from K11 other than team 7 and just maybe Neji or Lee is beating her. Sadly for her, Kishi always places her next to Nardo and Sauce who obviously are about 3 tiers above her. Sakura actually has decent speed feats and impressive evasion feats (especially if you include her small one on one with Menma. Now I would say that if you take away Deva, current Sakura can defeat the Peins, (Cerebrus restricted).
Now can we have better Vs threads with this realization? She isn't slow she has high chunin speed feats and when you think about what she is (a chunin) she's a darn good one.
