Sakura has no way to detect the chameleon, catch the bird, or neutralize the Cerberus. Therefore Animal Path still wins.
That's where you're wrong. The chameleon can hide but it's going to try to attack her and her AOE can kill it. Katsuya can catch the bird when it swoops down to attack as it so does. And Katsuya can immobilize cerberus.

None of the animals can hurt katsuya so it's not a big deal.

The chameleon is the only one really necessary. Animal Path hides inside his chameleon, then the chameleon sneaks up behind Sakura and entangles her with its tongue. Animal Path jumps out of the chamaelons mouth then stabs her with black rods. GG. If needed, Animal Path can summon cerberus to distract her while chamaelon sneaks up.
You forget she can have a smaller katsuya on her shoulder that she can make bigger at will. It will spray the toungue of the chameleon and kuchiyose will vanish.

Byakugou >> black rod Sakura tanks it and punches his lights out.

The bird won't sweep down? your argument seems to depend on the fact that Animal Path will randomly endanger his own life and forfeit the battle by making it easier for Sakura to reach him.

Neither the bird nor the chameleon have any reason to attack Sakura when other summons are on the field, particularly the Cerberus. Speaking of which ...

And Katsuya can immobilize cerberus.
How?

Not really, I use the manga and that's how the bird fights. So my counter is valid. My arguement depends on what i've seen.

Actually, they both have reason to attack, that is why they are on the field. The other animals would be getting defeated as well.

How? Have you not see katsuya engulf people in pain arc? She is bigger enough to engulf cerberus.

We've seen Animal Path fight one opponent, a diverse moveset ninja who needed to be swooped down upon because he was casting a jutsu. You shouldn't take that action out of context, in the manga the bird doesn't even really have attacks, the bombs were anime only so Pain attacking on that thing without motive is impractical and stupid.

He was on the run in that instance which is why the bird descended. Unless Sakura wants to summon Ma & Pa herself and leave herself open Animal Path sees no reason to descend. Few ninja can defeat Animal Path and Sakura isn't one of them.

No, they don't. Animal Path goes into the chameleon, the chameleon turns invisible, and now Animal Path is free to bombard Sakura with other summons. Or it could apply the same strategy via hopping on the bird and staying airborne whilst the other summons bombard Sakura for the rest of the fight.

The Katsuyu that Sakura can summon is as big as Gamakichi, . A single dog is around the same size as , whereas Animal Path tends to summon it at the start. Therefore, Sakura's Katsuyu is not bigger than Cerberus, meaning it's not big enough to engulf Cerberus. Even if by some chance it does, the Cerberus just breaks out of it with sheer strength seeing that Katsuyu has no feats of restraining anything other than regular humans with that method.

First of all its really sad that this thread is still dicussed. Secondly the dog can just bite Katsuyu to get rid of it. It can also multiply, so Katsuyu can't hold him. Finally the bird was easily able to knock down Jiraya's summon(at least in the anime). The only way to defeat Cerberus is defeat his caster, or with genjutsu and sealing jutsu's i guess.

The dog cannot multiply at will. It multiples when it gets hurt. And if you think a bite can get rid of katsuya I was right to one line this.

@bold you're totally pulling that from your butt. No real logic/ manga evidence to support. Not a good way to fight an arguement, ill ignore it.

The frog was able to sit on that dog, and katsuya is wider than them but she is as tall as them.

When has it summoned with 3 heads at the start? If you could please confirm that with the scan for me. Even if it did it never seperated until it got damaged.

Also katsuya does not have to engulf it if you wanted to claim she is not bigger, you don't have to fully engulf something to restain it. Katsuya can also be used as a foothold if you remember naruto chapter... uhh 650 i believe? Katsuya can hold his body down in goo form or feet. Animal path would have no choice but to vanish a useless summon after that.

You assume that cerberus can overpower katsuya when you have no strength feats to prove it, just like you claim katsuya has none. I think the fact katsuya could take shinra tensei without being blown apart means she is able to maintain her structure even when great force is applied. I ddon't think I have to give you a scan for that either it's in pain invasion.

Only Cerberus is needed for this battle. All Katsuyu has for offense is her acid. Nothing is stopping Cerberus from splitting up and attacking her all at once. It's not like Katsuyu has arms to defend herself with or reaction time to dodge the dogs when they pounce. Hell, the dogs can probably even dodge her acid.

Offence is not how you handle cerberus. Katsuya is more than capable of retraining it.

FYI the dog does not split up unless it gets damaged physically. As far as i know, if you have your source to back your claim I am all eyes.

Cerberus can split up, but it can't clone itself. It needs to be damaged to grow more heads. I'm saying that it can split up by itself if Animal Path wants it to.

@Theory post
Yeah I think it is interesting because if you look at the tail it is the same shape as Cerberus's. They are also both brown and they both have pointy ears. Nagato has been able to control dead bodies so it isn't that far fetched to think that he would be able to control it. One thing against this thought is that I don't think Nagato would revive his dead dog. It would probably just make him more depressed.

Katsuya is a sensor. She was shown to do so when Sakura summoned her. Katsuya can take on a watery melted form and can be used as a foot-hold. That will give Sakura healing abilities, whilst she can keep one with herself to track Chameleon. Once that is tracked, it's crushed along with animal path. Once the path is gone, so are the summons.

Sakura wins this mid difference most. Animal path has zero speed, Taijutsu, and durability feats. The bird summon is killed by jumping up and punching the ground. SM Naruto avoided the summon as well, Sakura is shown to jump higher, as she can gather more chakra for stronger attacks and higher jump - Chakra enhanced muscles for stronger attacks is her specialty.

That in no way proves that Gamabunta is bigger than the dog. Especially when that same dog slipped out from under him.

The scan is in the post that you responded to.

Even if it did it never seperated until it got damaged.

The goo did not impede the alliance's ability to move. Why then should I believe that it will stop the Cerberus?

You assume that cerberus can overpower katsuya when you have no strength feats to prove it, just like you claim katsuya has none. I think the fact katsuya could take shinra tensei without being blown apart means she is able to maintain her structure even when great force is applied.

How is Katsuya surviving Shinra Tensei evidence of physical strength?
As for Cerberus' strength feats, simply clashing with Gamaken caused It also from ANBUs. I don't see how Katsuyu is doing it when its best feat of restraining anything so far is of regular humans.

Looking at your sig i couldn't really expect anything different from you. Nagato has shown to have 8 summons which be will easily able to handle Katsuyu.
