Sakura is stronger than people think

[Edge]

Super healing, super physical strength, new jutsus from the Hyaguko Diamond seal, Katsuyu summoning no doubt and possibly a good genjutsu and/or anti genjutsu, since Kakashi mentioned she has talent in the area. She is basically Tsunade v2.
It wouldnt be weird to see Slug sage mode happen in the manga either.
I would say that is pretty damm good.
Even without the latter (Slug sage mode).

But this still can't beat EMS or BM.

 

[xLucyx]

I agree, she hadn't had much screentime in the series, now is her time to sparkle! Yay

 

[Meowazziel]

Comparing Sakura to Naruto and Sasuke is ridiculous. Kishimoto made it clear a long time ago that it would be a race between those 2, rather than the 3.
However, I agree (without a doubt) that she's definitely in the top 3 of Konoha 11, whoops I mean 10, and her power up is a real feat considering that she doesn't belong to any clan.
But the pubescent Sakura haters will keep on hating no matter what. Aint nobody gonna be able to stop their irrational tween angst.

Well I said comparing them is like comparing apples and oranges, because Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke are so different and Sakura is a healing type in the first place.

I agree, she hadn't had much screentime in the series, now is her time to sparkle! Yay

Yay indeed .

But this still can't beat EMS or BM.

They can complement each other though.
Wind + Enton. Naruto putting a cloak on Sakura and Sasuke. Kurama's cloak + Susanoo armor. Sakura her healing to keep the other 2 up (can probably recreate organs now as well) and going for the KO punches and super physical strength openers. I probably missed a lot more possible combo attacks.

Yes it would be weird, and complete bullshit, if she had slug sage mode. She does not have a high enough chakra amount to use sage mode, at all. It doesn't matter she has been storing chakra in her big ass forehead for 3 years, her total chakra is not high enough to use sage mode. And who said she has new jutsu's just because she is using Hyakugou? Since when did Tsunade use the Hyakugou seal to use jutsu? Never. She used it to use her regenerate jutsu, and maybe to use Byakugou, she never used it to take chakra from the seal to use a jutsu. And Sakura's is probably the same.

Byakugo is a jutsu is it not?
The chakra storage in the seal is used for jutsus like for example Byakugo.

Sage mode might not or might happen.
I still see it as possible.

Yeah it is a jutsu, but not really a element jutsu. I guess I should have rephrased it into her using elemental jutsu, I just don't see that happening, ever. And yeah I agree that Sakura should inherit the slug and everything from Tsunade. But she just can't enter sage mode. Low chakra reserves ARE a problem. Fukusaku said it himself, that you need enourmous amounts of chakra to enter sage mode, and slug sage mode should have the same principles as toad/snake/buddha(or whatever hashi's is, highly doubt it's slug like in your post). And we all know, as it has been stated in the manga since the beginning, that Sakura does not have a lot of total chakra, just really good chakra control. But control doesn't matter with sage mode, total chakra matters, it doesn't matter how well she can balance out the sage chakra with her own, if she doesn't have enough of her own she can't balance it out no matter how amazing her control it...and then she'd be a slug for real=D=D

Stuff like Uzumaki power injection (like Kabuto did), Senju power injection, maybe some gift from Hashirama for his granddaughters student for sage mode, her chakra reserves being large enough due to the yin seal or maybe after all there will be a possible different way than huge chakra reserves to gain sage mode (these are some of the arguments in the opening posts and/or in the thread).

Itachi said you need to kill your best friend for MS, but apparently you didnt.
Losing someone close to you activated MS too.
The same could apply to fukusaku his conditions for sage mode.
That there is more than one way to reach the goal.

Anyway, maybe you are right though.
I just still like to keep the options open and not exclude it from having a chance to happen =D.

 

[ReeseKage]

She hasn't surpassed tsunade yet. She's nowhere near as strong as tsunade. I'll be patient and wait for a legitimate power up.

 

[Decimation206]

Um.. She is strong and I acknowledge that but she isn't on their level Naruto and Sasuke are top 10 material, she is like top 15 or 20 which is still great.

Top 15 or 20 is indeed great and it is difficult to compare a support healer (which Sakura is in the first place), with jinchuriki's and EMS users. I feel Sakura will be strong enough now to fight alongside Naruto and Sasuke, without saying that she can fight them one on one (Tsunade did heavy dmg on Edo madara, so maybe Sakura vs Sasuke could work). In the past, Sakura has been lacking in strength to even fight alongside them(None of the youngsters could btw). There is noone better atm for the medic nin spot in team 7, than Sakura (Tsunade will die). Pepole like Shizune or Karin cant do a better job either. Sure Sakura doesnt have Uzumaki heritage, a bijou(Naruto can give her a cloak though) or Sharingan, but she has other valueable things that team 7 would lack without her. The super strength, super healing, poison tools and knowledge.

She hasn't surpassed tsunade yet. She's nowhere near as strong as tsunade. I'll be patient and wait for a legitimate power up.

Yeah, she hasnt shown everything she can do with the Hyakugo, so waiting to see what kind of power ups she has would be right, but by looking at how Kishi writes, with previous generations surpassing the next and how Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke are the sannin disciples, I think one can conclude that she will surpass Tsunade. Either she has already done that and we will witness that in the upcomming chapters, or she will have surpassed her soon=D.

 

[majinbuu1307]

haters wont admit
they're just gonna keep finding ways to hate
its pathetic

What in the world... is your sig gif..... Holy mother of god lol

 

[uzamaki2223]

Sakura maybe stronger than naru and sasu right now

I'm gonna chalk this up as a misprint.... Either that or dat sauce was strong...

Super healing, super physical strength, new jutsus from the Hyaguko Diamond seal, Katsuyu summoning no doubt and possibly a good genjutsu and/or anti genjutsu, since Kakashi mentioned she has talent in the area. She is basically Tsunade v2.

Im not a Sakura hater ( I hate when i have to preface a comment by saying that, but for some reason i only have to do that for Sakura and Sasuke) but we have only seen her monstrous strength, and i think that if Kishi was going to show Sakura having something else i think that he would've done it in this chapter to solidify her growth. Also, with the other Sannin, we saw that their predecessors took their Already Shown Moves and made them better, or at least their own ( in Sasuke's case, he took Kakashi's move and made it better or at least advanced it). Tsunade doesn't have any significant moves that Sakura hadn't already possessed (i.e, Super Sthrength, mednin abilities, and now the daimond) So i think that from what we've seen with Tsunade, we can assume that she has some form of regenerative abilities but, again, we have yet to see that. There is no doubt in my mind that if something like Slug Sage Mode existed, we would have at least seen Tsunade use it at some point because of her lack of better moves. Plus, Sakura hasn't show an affinity for ANY type of element or any other ability other that her extreme chakra control, so to say that she's gonna have some anti-genjutsu ability or some "good" genjutsu is, to say it nicely, a stretch...

Are y'all serious?! What other jutsu does she have? I really wanna be able to respect Sakura Chan but Kishis not helping. Give her an element or some kind of unique attack. Yea that diamond jutsu is awesome but, I'm gettin tired of the cherry blossom. I wanna see more before ppl start exaggerating and saying shes kage level.

I agree w/ this to a certain extent. She's definitely not kage level, hell Tsunade isn't kage level. And i do believe that Kishi cud have done a better job developing her character. And I do wanna c her get an element. To me, those things wud make her a a better character and closer to Naruto and Sasuke...

Comparing Sakura to Naruto and Sasuke is ridiculous. Kishimoto made it clear a long time ago that it would be a race between those 2, rather than the 3.
However, I agree (without a doubt) that she's definitely in the top 3 of Konoha 11, whoops I mean 10, and her power up is a real feat considering that she doesn't belong to any clan.

I think that excluding Neji that she is still the fourth best. I think that because amongst the Konoha 11 still living, she is one of three Taijutsu based characters and i am sure everyone that thinks rationally, would agree that Rock Lee is the Taijutsu expert. But she is def stronger than the rest but i still think that she would have a huge match up problem against Hinata because of her Kekkei Genkai and her gentle fist.

I think that ur reaching here... Do u really think that Sakura would accept some handout from Hashirama or another assisted power-up from Naruto?? She's not getting Uzumaki power from Karin!!!

She hasn't surpassed tsunade yet. She's nowhere near as strong as tsunade. I'll be patient and wait for a legitimate power up.

I agree that this isn't a legitimate power-up but she is def stronger than Tsunade... Which means she def gonna b the next Hokage... Naruto and Saskue are too strong to be cooped up in an office listening the advisors...

@meowNverse it seems like ur making excuses for sakura when u talk about her position amongst team 7 and in the world in general. Next ur gonna say that Naruto and Sasuke are only strong because of "plot shield" or something... There is NO WAY Sakura would ever beat Sasuke. Actually, her best chance to beat him was when he was going blind but she couldn't decide whether to s@%t or get off the pot. Sasuke has EMS now and as long as his Chakra stands up, he cud spam the three MS moves and end Sakura. Madara didn't care about getting hit because he was an Edo so he knew that his body wud return to its original condition. So why dodge??? Plus one of the major traits of the sharingan and one of the first abilities that Sasuke attained, was the ability to "see things in slow motion" for lack of better words. I seriously doubt that Sasuke would have any problem ending Sakura. To say that she could possibly fight or even do significant damage to Sasuke would mean that she's better than Kakashi and Oro and on par with Danzo and the current Raikage.

Also Sakura is not in the Top 15 Characters all time... She might b in the Top 10 Characters that we can confirm still living... she's only stronger than one of the current kages so if they r still alive, that'll def push her down the list...

Here's my Top 10 Confirmed Alive in no particular order:
1. Naruto
2. Sasuke
3. The big guy from the Rock village
4. Kakashi
5. Obito (Regardless of what people think of him)
6. Kabuto
7. Gai
8. Rock Lee
9. Tamari
10. The Leader of the Samurai
11. Killer Bee
12. The Raikage's Right hand w/ the Laser Circus
I know i said 10 but i couldn't leave out the lightning nin...

I think Sakura will certainly be able to use more powerful jutsu's now that she has the yin seal. We'll see what Kishi has planned, I hope he has her summon a slug to perform a mass healing jutsu like Tsunade in the Pain Invasion.

Also I assume now she is impervious to any genjutsu, so she has an advantage against genjutsu users cough Sasuke cough.

In the fight between Kakashi and Itachi, Itachi stated that only people with the Kekkei Genkai for the sharingan can break/resist the tsukiyomi (spelling). Also, if Sakura could summon the slugs, she should/would have done that much earlier in the big Alliance v Madara/Bijuu... The wood jutsu that the Bijuu used would have been the perfect time to break that out...

 

[Rikudou Sennin balls]

Sakura is book smart and has excellent chakra control. Which means she waist absolutely no chakra and her fighting style is taijutsu, which barely uses chakra.

Naruto has a huge resurve of chakra he can afford to waist and Sasuke has the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan which means his eye powers use little chakra to preform. Also she's invincible in battle. She could also use medical ninjutsu as an offensive methods like Tsunade and Kabuto did.

Sakura would never match Sasuke and Naruto is a fight. Their descendants of the sage himself. Sakura is strong enough to join in a fight with them now. That's what the yin seal was for. With her great chakra control and 3 years of stored chakra her attacks and movements are enough to do damage to anyone in a fight.

Her only weakness now is speed. Connecting an attack like that with some one with great reflexes like Naruto or with someone with a sharingan will be an issue.

 

[aznflyer14]

Don't forget Sakura's initial motivation in being medicine ninja is her desire to support and protect her teammates in Sasuke and Naurto. For all we know, with her new power-up, it would give her ability in accelerated healing for her teammates to ensure they sustain in the battle.

 

[OMGitsShakra]

her powerup is amazing, im so happy kishi is finally highlighting his damn heroine!!

I dont think speed is a weakness anymore didn't you see how fast she zoomed towards the jubbi clones? her seal is enhancing both her speed and strength from what we've seen so far.

Sakura is nothing more than a healbot

Exactly, Sakura is a medic, a support type with some great battle jutsus. She needed to be at a lvl to be a support type that could team with Naruto and Sasuke.
She wasnt in the past but now she is at that lvl. She doesnt need to be able to take them on 1 on 1 to be able to team up with them.

her powerup is amazing, im so happy kishi is finally highlighting his damn heroine!!

yay !
WIll be interesting to see what kind of new stuff she will do with the yin seal.
