@KH The claim that Sakura trained in medical jutsu all her life is false.She has 3+ years of medical training while Kabuto has 10.

Point is without Yin Seal and Katsuyu boosting her abilities Sakura would'nt be able to heal large numbers of people at the same time by herself.Hell if Kabuto was put in the same situation then he would be capable of doing such a feat.So it's not a excuse because Sakura learned from the top expert while Kabuto did'nt have access to such knowledge.

But the fact he's capable of amazing medical feats that even earned praise from Tsunade herself, and more than likely being self taught is something to consider.

Sakura is a great medical ninja but Kabuto is just as great if not slightly better.
While I agree with your statement I see a number of people act like Byakugou was something given to Sakura( Not you. but others)

Byakugou is the culmintaion of Sakura focusing and collecting her chakra in one spot for 3 years. It's all Sakura's chakra. It wasn't handed to her or Tsunade didn't walk up and place the seal on her forehead.

That is an incredible feat. Concidering she only had 3 years to learn about it not to mention using it in the heat of a war so effectively for the 1st time.

That alone is a testiment that Sakura's medical knowledge and overall skill with Medical jutsu is on par with Kabuto's. IN this regard, she too is a genius and is being praised by Hashirama himself, So saying that Tsunade praising Kabuto on his medical jutsu, though not anything to scoff at, isn't like Sakura hasn't received praise from a well respected and exceptional ninja herself.

Kabuto revived Sasuke from dead. that's something sakura couldn't do other thing than holding people's heart alive..
:vincent:

1.) Sasuke wasn't DEAD. He was near death (let's not start this again)

2.) Different type of injuries. Sasuke was stabbed through the heart. Naruto had the bijuu extracted from him. That wasn't a physical wound but a spiritual one. kabuto's method of healing Sasuke wouldn't have worked for Naruto because Naruto needed Kurama to survive. ONly Obito could provide that as he stole that half from Madara and gave it Naruto. Kabuto would have faired no better if he had been the one to treat Naruto.

Good points,I've seen people argue that healing the Alliance was Sakura's feat alone when in fact it was her chakra+Yin Seal+Katsuyu that made such a feat possible.Mastering the Yin Seal is indeed impressive but without Katsuyu around to act as a chakra channel, Sakura would'nt be able to heal large amounts of people at the same time by herself.

Agreed. I don't think any in the NV could honestly (Ootosuki notwithstanding) But Katsuyu plays a pivitol role in healing massive or even multiple numbers which is why she is one of my favorite summons. She is very underrated because she isn't a fighter type but her healing feats more than make up for this IMO :win:

Yep,Sakura's one of the greatest medical nins around who is only going to get better with time.It's just in terms of experience Kabuto is slightly above her.

Sakura became better this war. Earlier part 2 Sakura was not better though.

And no kabuto experimenting and stealing things from people is not medical ninjutsu same for him putting dna into sasuke etc. Kabuto leaves no reason lingering for me to believe he is better.

They are equal imo.

Kabuto revived sasuke yes ,but naruto and sasuke were on the same state ,Their hearts Stopped beating They technically died.

Sakura also revived naruto by bumping his heart and making him breath .However unlike sasuke, Naruto needed the kyubi chakra
They must bring back the kyubi chakra in order for naruto to live .

If sakura did the same techniques she did on naruto To heal sasuke ,Then she would be able to save him .

-Reviving his heart
-making him breath
-recover the blood loss
-healing the wound

^^
The techniques she did on naruto .


Kabuto heal Sakura when she couldn't heal herself........so yeah.
It was explained that Kurama attack worked as a poison and that sakura couldn't heal herself because the poison made her numb .
Kabuto in the other hand wasn't "poisoned " So he could heal sakura .

Not to mention this was before sakura get the yin seal and the self regeneration without seals.

Kabuto by far, he has way more potential than sakura, and if he was on team 7 instead of sakura I've no doubt in my mind that he'd be equal to Nardo and the sauce. The only thing sakura has over him is the contract with katsuya. I've no doubt in my mind that he'd be superior to sakura were he given the same opportunities since he was compared to kakashi on part 1. It's like comparing modeling clay to playdough

Dude Sakura's a 17 year old girl who's been using medical ninjutsu for only 3 years, while Kabuto has been using medical ninjutsu much longer. The fact we can even compare her feats to kabuto's says a lot.

Sakura's potential is far beyond his & Tsunade's.

I disagree, if he were tsunades student I think he would be better than her, not to say sakura isn't good, Kabuto just seems better imho.

The reason why I say that is because of Sakura's feats at the age of 17..

Mainly, The Yin-Seal (Which Amplifies Her Medical Techniques) & Slug Summon (Includes Remote Healing & Mass Regeneration).

Plus her feats..

Sadly no that ain't the case. Sakura was born with good chakra control. Kabuto wasn't. He would've been shizune number 2.

Did you know Kabuto could do Basic Field Healing at about less than 10 year age? And actually did it good enough to earn Orochimaru's praise.(He actually graduated from academy at the age of 10 ... So the pic above was before then) ...... Then please tell me again about Kabuto wasnt actually skilled? .... Oh also cherry on Top, he his teacher Nono was actually specialized in spying, not healing ninjutsu. Again please tell me how Kabuto wasnt skilled?

He was able to heal someone back from death(Sasuke)
However, what was the medical technique he used?

Yup knew that. Because he had been put into the job. He was good with it. just like Shizune was.... hence why she was taken in by Tsunade.. In the end, its about chakra control.... which is again.. not Kabuto's best quality. Doesn't mean he isn't great in it.. it simply he isn't peak in it.

And his mom a partial medical ninja herself.. so yea..... And he was healing normal wounds.. so yea......

You sound like those Naruto fans always trying to make anything related to chakra a chakra control feat.. lol.
