You know, if Naruto had ended at the Pein Arc or five kage summit arc

[Amaterasuice]

Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura would be at the exact same power range as the previous sanin. That's if, Kishi gave Sakura her feats early. Think about it?

Sasuke: Aoda+Ms

Naruto: Sage mode+Gamakichi

Sakura: Byakugyou+Katsuyu

It would be cool actually. Sasuke and Naruto's power being debatable about who is stronger, and Sakura not being TOO drastically far behind.

However, for this to work, Sakura would've needed to be able to surpass Tsunade really early, and Imo, she's still weaker than Tsunade by a large margin. But oh well.

This is all based on the basis that these were their final powerups, so they would be stronger than they actually were at the time. I'm talking about a second "Three way deadlock"

 

[Lay]

She's near her

No. So far, from what we saw Jiraiya was still stronger than Naruto at that point. And the same could be said of Orochimaru and Sasuke. I doubt he would ahve been able to do much at all against Orochimaru in Snake Sage Mode.

This is all based on the basis that they got upgraded after the summit in an epilogue. Sorry for the confusion.

Sakura has done some progress but its still not enough to make the reader acknowledge her, i see no hints of her surpassing Tsunade.

 

[Disciple Of The 5th]

Well, we wouldn't get to see Tsunade's god feat of being cut in half and tanking it

 

[KGB Kakuzu]

She's near her

I'd disagree... Her punches are stronger simply because part of that power is used to make Tsunade look young.


Other than that, Tsunade has displayed greater combat knowledge and comfortability, greater medical proficiency, and even offensive moves based on medical knowledge outside of Giga Impact (Nerve restructure for example).

Where the hell did you get that info? Because I've not read any info like that. The hellz you be smokin?

 

[Gdamon]

Sakura said so...

What exactly are you trying to tell us?

Actually I think it's because she have full control over her chakra, she never shown a punch where she wasn't muti chakra controling (creating her seal), so I think it because she has full control over her chakra, her yinseal is nothing but more chakra.

Wait in a sense both of us are correct, Tsunade need to stay young is like she storing a yin seal again, seeing as how is is muti-chakra controling to keep up the jutsu and utilize other jutsu

And I think that if Sakura developed around the Pein Arc, Naru-Hina moments would be cut, so no Hinata development, and they both would have stomped pain, and less Naruto Development, So Sakura lack of "development was actually to develop other characters.

Eh , what's the point of this ? ........they would still not be equal or in pair at all .

 

[KingHashirama]

It would've sucked ass period.

So basically experience.... Just like Sasuke and Naruto aren't Orochimaru's level in terms of experience.......

Sadly, Sakura is protrayed as Tsunade + more. It is the wait that is killing X_X

 

[Joshutsu]

Eh I guess, tbh it would have been tricky to find another time slot to give her the seal, but i guess he coulda made it work. Shes not far from tsunade. People need to stop saying that.

We still dont know if Sakura will not get that 'not too far behind her team mates' status yet. I doubt she would be given the exact same set up as Tsunade, kishi considering how he scaled Sasukes and Naruto's power.

He should bring her to a point where she would lose no less than mid diff to them. Anyone who might bother to tell me Sakura is done with power - ups , kma the seal release is not a different power up as its just an extension of the seal use.

i dont get it
