Why would it matter if he was weakened or not? Kakashi was still a leaf ninja, what matters is the intent, and they were willing to kill leaf ninja for the mission. He left once Gai came to avoid causing a larger situation(notice how he never hyped Gai or Kakashi as above him, because they're not)
Neither is Jiraiya. Kakashi being weakened was addressing the part where I said Kisame was warned by Itachi not to engage Kakashi. Yes, Itachi would obviously keep his cover, but choose convenient excuses as to why he doesn't have to kill/hurt/capture Konoha's top forces. By the logic you're trying to force here, Guy would also have to be stronger.



Itachi and Kisame are basically the average Uchiha and seven swordsman of the mist, since the others are all dead, with Kisame not knowing about Sasuke at that point in time.
No, Itachi is no average Uchiha member lmao. Uchiha clan members have reputations, and the average member doesn't stack up to the reputation of the Sannin. But not Itachi, who stands above all of them.


Kisame should know about Orocohimarus and Itachis situation, we know the Akatsuki had a meeting about it
Them having a meeting about it does not equal Kisame knowing how easily Itachi disposed of Orochimaru.


And Kisame was in the Akatsuki before even Itachi. And wrt Orochimarus statement,why are we ignoring the context of him having lost his arms?
Because it doesn't matter? Orochimaru tried Itachi when he was at full power, and hadn't had his arms sealed and jutsu lost, he knows he's vastly weaker even at full power lol. He did not say 'Oh by the way now that I lost my arms Itachi is stronger'. He knows that even at full power he can't measure up to Itachi.


And no, literally the entire Akatsuki would beat Jiraiya obviously
There we go. That was all that was needed. So if you agree that the Akatsuki defeat Jiraiya, obviously, than obviously Itachi's words can't be taken for fact. That's not to mention that it's quite clear that Itachi is simply avoiding and postponing the capture of the Konoha jinchuriki.
 
He was also significantly more full having just eaten weeks worth of food while Luffy just had a normal meal
He ate that food before he went back up to the rooftop and fought Kaido again which went on for some tens of minutes and was extremely taxing on him, not just because of him using G4 constantly but also because of him taking so many heavy blows that he literally DIED.
I'm pretty certain that he already used all the energy he got from the food before he was even revived.

You get the rooftop fight pre G5 was less than one round of G4 long. Not much time at all. And g4 doesn’t drain as much stamina.

It was just the food.
 
They are. Let’s look at how oda hypes these characters:
1. Base mode has 1.8 billion berries, vastly above any of Zoro and Sanjis opponents so far.
2. Last chapters called the greatest fear of all people 100 years ago
3. Were able to fight the Gorosei last chapter which are above the common HKs
4. Meanwhile Sommers was literally low diffed by Gaban

It’s really clear which duo oda has chosen to hype more.
Gunko (a Holy Knight) soloed the Strawhats almost immediately

I’d say their hype is pretty high as well

And Dorry and Brogy holding off the Gorosei is overstated if I’m being honest. They blocked an attack, threw Warcury back, and then cut Ju Peter in half

Impressive, but it’s also not saying much

If you think they have more hype that’s fine but “vastly” is a bit too strong of a word imo

I was just a casual Naruto reader and never really engaged in Naruto powerscaling, but your post is hilarious :suresure:

"We're taking Kakashi with us. Make the other two disappear"
He doesn't mean killing Kakashi lol. That literally meant "kidnapping Kakashi and killing Asuma and Kurenai".
Long time no see StrawHat.





Which fanbases are you having fun with these days?

Gunko and shamrock aren’t who we’re talking about. We’re talking about Killingham and Sommers.

Vastly isn’t an exaggeration. D and B fought the gorosei alongside Luffy and didn’t even get touched instead they were the ones flipping and beheading them. They fought off screen long enough for Luffy to need multiple G5s and they left completely fine. D and Bs portrayal is vastly above Sommers and Killingham.

The difference is with Gai, he never made a claim that Gai himself would be too hard to handle, because obviously Itachi is far above Gai at that point. Kisame would simply not believe it. And my point with the Kakashi scene was simply that they were willing to get rid of any Konoha Shinobi who stood in their way,not anything more.

The rest of the Uchiha clan is dead, the rest of the seven swordsman of the mist are also dead. Kisame is obviously not talking about the average Joe with those titles, he's talking about himself and Itachi lol

Do we need to know the specifics of the meeting to assume that Kisame should at least have a basic understanding of the situation? And Orochimaru losing his arms is relevant of course, as the entire conversation was about that

Fair enough, but lets be honest. They're not going to kidnap Kakashi and then let him return home the next day, they will use him for Intel, and dispose of him

@Tyki_Mikk change the poll to only Itachi vs Jiraiya. Thanks.

Yeah, and with Jiraiya it is a believable excuse, but it doesn't indicate that Jiraiya is above Itachi, when everything shows that Itachi is the stronger one.



And my point with the Kakashi scene was simply that they were willing to get rid of any Konoha Shinobi who stood in their way,not anything more.
No they weren't, which is why originally Itachi wanted them to leave but after Kakashi poked his nose where he shouldn't have, to preserve his cover he acted, and then he left once Guy arrived. Itachi would sacrifice Konoha shinobi but would choose not to have to if the situation does not demand it. And he would choose to postpone the capture of the main character and the jinchuriki of the most powerful tailed beast as long as possible, which is why he left Naruto, claiming that even with the rest of the Akatskui there'd be no difference, which we both agree is baloney.



The rest of the Uchiha clan is dead, the rest of the seven swordsman of the mist are also dead. Kisame is obviously not talking about the average Joe with those titles, he's talking about himself and Itachi lol
No, he's talking in general terms, otherwise he'd have claimed that they(Itachi and Kisame) specifically pale in comparison to him, which would be illogical when he thinks Itachi alone can take him.



Do we need to know the specifics of the meeting to assume that Kisame should at least have a basic understanding of the situation?
Yes we do, because there's a stark difference between 'Orochimaru tried killing me, I defended, and he decided to leave' and 'Orochimaru attacked me, I eye diffed him'.


And Orochimaru losing his arms is relevant of course, as the entire conversation was about that
It's not relevant because Orochimaru is talking in general terms. He never denotes that Itachi is only now stronger than him. He saw a younger Itachi wipe the floor with him when he was at full power, he's not an idiot lmao.



I honestly don't see the point in continuing this after you have agreed that Itachi's words can't be taken for fact, as he was clearly lying. 'Interesting' convo, but I am out. Agree to disagree I guess.
 
Didn't he use G4 multiple times against Kaidou?
Also it absolutely does drain stamina lol, reread Dressrosa
He used one round. And G4 canonically doesn’t drain that much stamina. Luffy can use it multiple times without running out like he did against kata

Luffy just had more in the tank against kaido. It was a one time thing due to specific circumstances Luffy can’t deactivate G5 otherwise

This is still ignoring the fact that the dude was so low on health that he actually died to Kaido's attack lol

Agree to disagree is fair, but I don't really think by "backup" he means the entire Akatsuki lol. This is an organization that hasn't even had a meeting in nearly a decade(which aren't even in person), and I don't think Itachi would really know the power levels of every member anyway.
