How are you going to claim deflection when that's exactly what you did? Shee stated the Raikage's reaction speed was on par with Minato's yet Sasuke easily evaded him. Minato is only faster with teleportation. Not footspeed. You brought up A who was irrelevant to the OP, so I brought up Minato who was relevant to Sasuke's battle with the Raikage.
Right, so he purposefully showed multiple Kage being surprised by Sasuke's arrival on accident? "He's here!" *Everyone looks around* "Above!" *Everyone looks above surprised to see Sasuke on the ceiling after entering the room and cutting all the flags*.
How could this be an accident? In the manga they were all even shown with an exclamation point to further declare their surprise.
Sasuke always has speed feats done for dramatic effect. Like crossing over to Naruto at Orochimaru's hideout (which further coincides with this scene as Yamato and Sakura were both surprised by his speed) & escaping Deidara's Ultimate Explosion.
Besides, even if you were right, it still doesn't change the fact that it happened. It's a fact that they were all unable to keep up with a weakened Sasuke's casual speed despite being told of his arrival. He wasn't out of breath or anything. And had to wait for them all to notice him. Matter fact I'll add this to the OP now.
Why would Sasuke blitz the Kage whom he didn't care about rather than head after his target Danzo who ran away when Mifune attacked Sasuke?
The fastest Kage was the Raikage whom as i stated and showed to Benjermin, Sasuke easily evaded despite him being said to be on par with Minato.
Youre just creating even more logical inconsistencies in your argument. In that case hed have just speed blitzed Danzo, or done the same in the fight against him later.
It's just common sense. When writing a series, sometimes there'll be moments that dont align with another 100% perfectly but still enhance the experience. This was one of them. Youre looking at this too much with the eyes of a fan whos looking at something at face value rather than in the mindset of how the creator intends it.
This was done to draw attention to the fact that the climax is approaching and create suspense for the viewer. And the exclamation mark doesn't always mean surprise, i can often mean recognition and realisation. None of the kage were surprised at all, it's obvious just by looking at it, if they were surprised Kishi would have drawn attention to it and made sure that the reader knew that the scene was meant to show off how he overwhelmed the kage.
If you need further evidence of this idea being used in the series just look at 8th gate Gai vs Madara, and how everybody was able to see what was happening there when Gai was supposedly meant to be moving at incredible speeds. It's not a hard concept to understand.
Also, just to humour that last point about being faster than Ay, yes he outplayed him at that moment, however it's clear that it was calculated and the sharingans precog was what enabled him to foresee the attack coming. It wasn't raw speed alone. Youre trying too hard to wank Sasuke, promoting everything that supports your argument whilst ignoring everything that doesn't.
