Would Sage Mode Orochimaru be greater than Itachi?

[Rock Slayer]

Considering Kabuto was able to hold his own against both Sasuke and Itachi.

DSM Kabuto > Any Version of Orochimaru this far.

SM Orochimaru as for now remains fanfic and is featless. So who knows

 

[Sof6p]

The only reason Kabuto was able to hold his own was because Itachi wasn't tthere to kill him. Itachi was stopping Sasuke from killing him as well. Orochimaru would still get solo'd if Itachi is intent on killing him.

 

[MomoSaka]

Yes, he would.

I understand the argument, but you can't deny he wasn't holding his own against the two. Killing intent or not, Itachi would have had a problem without Sasukes assistance.

Your under estimating Itachi he's the king of Solo

It wasn't only tayuya's jutsu that saved Kabuto

Excuse me? Kabuto had to hold back because he wanted to keep Sasuke unharmed, Itachi was an Edo which gives huge benefits, it was 2vs1, Kabuto didn't use some of his strongest techniques - Edo Tensei and Manda 2 and the only way Itachi managed to stop him was because of Izanami, which is useless against Orochimaru btw.

Current Orochimaru can defeat alive Itachi without serious problems if he is at least a little bit more careful. With 100% Hashi DNA body he can easily outlast and overwhelm Itachi with his empowered arsenal and stamina. Current Orochimaru with SM is a possible stomp.

Kabuto said itachi and Sasuke are nothing to him. Which means Orochimaru with sagemode will also be capable of beating itachi.
