I dnt think even think totsuka mirror could even hit jiraiya.
But.. that's your opinion.. tho. The source material explicitly exemplifies that Itachi can blitz high class speedsters (a gold standard that Jiraiya isn't a part of
.. ) with the
Spirit Tools — and
maybe — with his
footspeed alone.
i bet even using yata mirror plus totsuka blade made itachi’s chakra drain a lot yes this is a spiritual weapon and this weapons of the sage of the six paths is good for ambush type of attack.
Actually.. There's no explicit evidence that this is, indeed the case. Itachi has immaculate, excellent chakra control, so, I don't really see why he has to be anxious, about utilizing the
Spirit Tools — as being
substantially taxing for him.
But i think sage mode can sense this even before they could get hit by it.
Honestly
.. Jiraiya's
Natural Energy Sensing Features are kind of lacklustre — as in — that, they haven't exhibited the features to imply that they could defensively retaliate in time, when faced with the
Spirit Tools.. Even if we presume that he could sense it in time, I don't see how he's supposed to actually avoid the offensive maneuver, given his turtlesk lack of the necessitated speed features to acclimatize, so.
Imagine how strong was naruto’s sate mode on boruto that he could sense boruto chakra from miles away from konoha.
I'd say that you've a point here, but actually
.. Adult NE (
IE., Natural Energy) Naruto is significantly weaker than his precedent NE Incarnations.
Supplementally, Naruto
explicitly surpassed Jiraiya in the
Pain Arc in terms of Natural Energy Application — as stated by the Sage Toad — Fukasaku.
The only way ok for me is to beat Jiraiya was if you let down his focus, ambush type of attack that was faster than him.
But
.. that's your opinion
.. tho. The source material explicitly exemplifies that Itachi can blitz high class premier speedsters (a gold standard that Jiraiya isn't a part of.. ) with the
Spirit Tools — and
maybe — with his footspeed alone.
Which is 0 chance since i bet he know that you cannot let down your focus on a sharringan user who became an anbu at the age of 12.
.. Itachi has
consistently exemplified that he can blitz several high class premier speedsters, without significant duress.
But i dnt think both kisama and itachi is fast enough to even par with jiraiya
Umm
.. I feel like you're restating your opinion, tbh.
kisamae could use ocean type thing jutsu like he did during bee arc but how would you assume kisame can even touch a sage mode user?
Why wouldn't he be able to, in your opinion
.. ?
