Tobi's S/T jutsu weakness...

[bruce lee was uchiha]

So Tobi's S/T jutsu is obviously unlike anything we have seen, being able to last up to 5 minutes long and the only people we have seen actually being able to harm him being Minato and Konan (i think that was it... could be wrong)

Now being intangible for any duration means nothing can touch him yet you can still see him... Would it be possible Itachi/Sasuke/Madara/ anyone with a powerful MS genjutsu be able to use genjutsu on him, disrupting the S/T jutsu and renderring him tangible once again? Every jutsu has a weakness and i have a hard time believing that Tobi's S/T jutsu's weakness is that it lasts 5 minutes... i mean cmon now... 5 minutes is a good chunk of time in a fight, easily dictating victory in most circumstances. If he could be hit with a genjutsu just long enough to disrupt the S/T jutsu he could be taken out easily IMO. I realize he has a sharingan and a rinnegan and alot of you will be all like "Genjutsu just cannot work on him! He has a sharingan and rinnegan and blah blah blah" Sasuke was put into a genjutsu while fighting itachi... idk its just a theory and i think its more then possible. what are your thought people?!

Sometimes I read a post and remember than none of this really matters. This is one of those times.

 

[Commander Axe]

its possible. good theory.

 

[ShineOnYaMind]

I think the weakness of his S/T is that he can also not touch others while intangible. I find it highly unlikely that he will be taken out easily due to a genjutsu. However he meets his end, it will not be by simple means whatsoever. I don't have an answer to how he will be beaten though.

No, he even stated to kakashi that MS wouldn't even work on him. Kakashi knows genjutsu, maybe not to the extent of tsyu, but he knows it. He also has a time space attack and it wont even work. Also, seen on sasuke vs itachi, they can see through the genjutsu on an equal level.

Also, Sasuke saw through itachi's genjutsu, 3 levels of it to be exact. They both nullified the genjutsu.

regaurdless of him seeing through it, he was still in it. maybe thats enough to disrupt tobi's jutsu.

Tobi is wack. Lets go fanboys. Gimme all you got. :kagutsuchi:

 

[Gin-San]

Weaknesses:

-In order to use the S/T Technique, Tobi needs to materialize himself, then suck himself in his dimension. If he wants to absorb others and himself, it will take more time.

-He cannot be attacked if he is intangible, though he can't attack either.

I see your point, even if so as soon as it is disrupted along with the genjutsu he can unmaterialize again. Maybe if there were two uchiha vs him. I see where your ideal is but not sure.

Jiraiya sensei whip his hair back and forth. look at that guys.

 

[KAGE RYUU]

seems like a very good plan but jus to take the opposing side for fun i mean common he is tobi and aware of just about everything from what i have seen and as familiar he was with izanagi i assume he is just as familiar with izanami and tsykomi and genjutsu in general so i am sure he has some kinda counter for things of that nature what those counter measures could be i dont know but im sure he has them

XD not sure if you are making fun of it

Doesn't Kakashi's MS use a sort of S/T?

Yes but Tobi showed it would work on him after Sasuke's battle against Danzo.. well he said so.

yeah so much is unknown about tobi, was just hoping my theory would spark some better ideas from people. thank you Sonin, i always like your point of view on threads!

Thank you . I love the debates . I post alot of vs threads if you would like to check them out i can send you links.

Also about that, I think Kakashi's MS will play a bigger role later in the war, why else would Kishi just introduce it just for a few minutes of show?

Well He can only use it once until he reaches fatigue. Also he can go blind. I feel he will sacrifice his eyes to help naruto Vs Tobi or maybe Sasuke

kakashi's MS mystery will hopefully be revealed, so many things we all want the answers too lol. i think we've seen everything kakashi has to offer TBH. The way the manga is heading im thinking madara is going to release himself from the edo somehow and 1 of 2 things are going to happen. 1.) naruto takes on madara and sasuke takes on Tobi. This one is unlikely because tobi seems to be the main villian and if sasuke fights tobi we will never know if he surpasses madara... so obv 2.)sasuke vs madara and naruto takes on tobi... makes sense to me. sasuke tests his sharingan vs the most powerful uchiha to have lived, and naruto finishes what minato started all those years ago and takes out tobi for good.
