We all know Tobi is a master tactitionist, and is very powerful but did he think Itachi would have stoped his plans? Check this out.




He would not attack konoha when Itachi was alive and I dont believe its because they made a pact.

When Tobi says "Itachi is dead...Nothing stands in my way now" leads me to believe he coudnt execute his plan because he knew Itachi was strong/smart enough to stop him.This also makes me think did Tobi think Itachi could stop Nagoto/Pein, because at the time Pein was alive. Coudn't Tobi just have Pein take out Itachi if he got in the way of Tobi & the akutsuki attacking konoha?

Not just that if you already have the power of Nagato/Pein why do you need Sasuke so much?



I wounder if Tobi wants Sasuke body kind of like Oro did??
Anyways was reading old mangas and this made me think.
Would love to hear your opinion!

Sry this was my first thread i'll get it right next time.

No biggie. Back on topic I think Tobi was partially scared of Itachi's powers hence waiting until his death to attack the Leaf. Although I think part of it may be that Itachi knew too much about Tobi's true plans and identity. If Itachi had just told his comrades that Tobi was manipulating them for his own gain then he'd have quite a problem on his hands.

Hell no. What does itachi have that can counter Tobis s/t tech.
I'll answer. Nothing. His ass would be rotting in another dimension like danzos guards.

Do you really think Itachi is that dumb to just be sucked in by Tobi's technique?

Tobi does have to fear being sealed by Itachi though. For a man who can regenerate limbs with ease the only thing left to fear is an attack which affects the soul. While we have no evidence that Tobi knew about Itachi's weapons Itachi is still is a force to be avoided if possible.

Do you really think itachi is fast enough to not let Tobi touch him? He's not. Only s/t jutsu can counter another s/t jutsu. Like I said. One touch and the fight is over. You can't seal something you can't stab. Tobi also showed us that amaterasu has no effect on him. Gtfoh.

What you said didn't make sense. Tobi can be "intangible" do you not know what that means?

Well tobi did say he was an eye sore so I'm guessing he was a thorn in his side so scared I don't think so but he definilty saw Itachi as threat he was pretty smart so maybe he new more than we thought he new.
