Sasuke has seen how fast Naruto is. A distraction would have just given him a better chance to land a blow. Remember Sasuke is a tactician. He calculates everything before making a move including how fast his opponent is

Besides, lot of good it did. He hit Naruto directly, and still couldn't get the killing blow.

Well from memory a good sensing feat in base could be similar to Tobirama in a flashback I remember him having his finger on the ground and sensing how many were following them and even being able to identify the group maybe this is what you would consider a good base sensing feat?

This is what i'm going against. Sasuke didn't need that distraction to hit Naruto.

It did absolutely no good.

Sensing like Hashirama and Tobirama have.

Didn't need it is likely but he used it anyway which means if he hadn't the damage done would of been either less or none at all because Naruto's sensing ability already been proven in the War Arc when he was in RSM.

No, it would have been the same.

Naruto can't react to it and needs time, which Sasuke gave by waiting until he teleported to start Chidori.

Can't react? he already did when he used that fireball jutsu or did the "!" in the scan which meant Naruto had noticed Sasuke and was able to mitigate the damage done to him by his Chidori

He still reacted to sasuke's Ameno even though Sasuke tried using the Fireball jutsu to get the jump on him so what did you say again?

RSM can be activated in an instant. Even if he does that off the bat, Naruto will either:

- Tank the strike.
- Regenerate from it.

I'm saying that the fireball wasn't a distraction, so you should stop acting as if it was.

Let me rephrase. He can't react properly and is still going to get hit.

No. It didn't increase his chances at all. If Sasuke wanted to increase his chances he would have attacked when Naruto was in base.

We have more than on occasion where Naruto can barely react.

No I understood it but you said he didn't want to kill Naruto but this is already said in the manga unless you claim to deny manga facts?
Clearly you don't know the meaning of the word just.

I'm not sure what this distraction point is, but Sasuke wasn't trying to just "kill" Naruto so much as killing the ideals that he represented in order to enforce his own system. To do that, he would need to defeat Naruto at his strongest, evidenced by that fact that he wanted Naruto to start taking the fight seriously when he remained on the defensive.

And I'm saying Naruto reacted to it which previously according to you he couldn't and my scan showed this yet you talk about the distraction again? I already said Sauce didn't need to use it but his chances of getting a hit would of been less if he didn't. Why should I not think it isn't a distraction? Soon as Sasuke used that Jutsu he immediately used Ameno which from What I understand if two jutsu are used in combination like that more times then not it's because one was used to distract their opponent so the second jutsu could work.

Because it makes no sense. If Sasuke wanted to improve his chances he would do it when Naruto was in base mode. Do you understand that if he did it then Naruto would have been stabbed?

You know, maybe it could have been used so that Naruto would have a chance?

Tell me how in the world would a katon be a distraction when Naruto can sense all around himself? It's like saying that Naruto attacking Nagato would have been a distraction for Bee to attack.
