He could, but he was hit so fast that he probably didn't have time to prepare. He was FTG'ed right into that

Well he doesn't seem very bothered ATM. But then again it hasn't exploded either, it would be really bad if soe=me of his chakra network got severed. But I doubt that would happen. Kamui is also an option.

Please refer to this. As that statement is not true. And if samehada can do it. I'm sure RINNEGAN can. Also, sasuke himself (a doujustu user) can absorb the flames back after casting them. So it's possible there too.

he just didn't have time to react to the attack, ftg is instant while the preta path is not. also, Tobi doesn't seem to be using kamui atm either, if he was using his dojutsu together with the sage's powers the alliance can just give up and say their prayers.

Yes, he could. Does he need to? no.

That attack they just did won't even leave a scratch.

I'm not sure if Obito can absorb it, since Nagato didn't but he can definitely use Shinra Tensei to repel Amatesaru off his body, just like Nagato did.

I don't think he can absorb the attack after he's been hit by it. It's doing damage to him now in the chest, most times we've seen Rinnegan absorbtion it's been through the hands.

A better question would be, why isn't he using Kamui to avoid the attack? We know he can use Kamui to escape from amaterasu (he did it with Itachi's technique).

Despite having the Rinnegan, the only technique from it that we've seen Obito use is the 6-paths technique with the jinchuuriki zombies. He hasn't used absorbtion, soul-nonsense, shinra tensei, chibaku tensei, the mechanical stuff or any of the other cool rinnegan techniques. Maybe he can't do these things with only one eye?

We know that the "true power" of eyes comes when you have both. Maybe the 6-paths technique is the only one he can use with just a single rinnegan.

BUT, we KNOW he can do Kamui with only one eye. He's been doing it the entire manga. After he came back from his dimension fighting with Kakashi he hasn't used Kamui at all. His speed and defenses are so high right now that maybe he doesn't need it and has been overconfidently not using it.

He just got these abilities. Just because he's insanely powerful doesn't mean he has the knowledge to match it. IF Obito had perfect knowledge of his own power and abilities, he'd be impossible to defeat obviously. But he doesn't; he just got these abilities. Naruto had the ABILITY to do a lot early on, but he didn't know how.
