Naruto Thread (Spoilers For Sure)

That is why I said probably the Edo Tensei has its limitations when it comes to people on their levels. Madara is an exception because Kabuto focused on creating a special body for him to make him stronger, but I believe Hashirama and 3rd Raikage were weaker in zombie mode because of the technique's limitation. The 3rd Raikage was said to have as much chakra as a Jinchiuriky without a Bijuu, he fought the 8 tails (1 tail away from 9 tails) and beat it (even if he hurt himself), he's said to have been the strongest raikage, he held an army of 10.000 back for 3 days on his own, and whenever his name is mentioned everyone goes like "OMG".



You're right. Genjutsu wouldn't work on Jiraiya because the toads just need to apply a chakra shot on him to snap him out of it (Although it wouldn't be weird if Itachi could cast a Genjutsu on the 3 of them at the same time). A battle between Itachi and Jiraiya would be a hard, one relies on strength and the other one on techniques. If they were the same age, I'd say Itachi would win, but I will give credit to Jiraiya's experience from his age and say he would win.

Good luck snapping him out of a genjutsu that makes a second 72 hours of torture. Tsukomyni or something would one shot him. And it's very in character for Itachi to use the opponents attack against them. See Deidara and itachi's first meeting. Also Susano' would provide an adequate protection against the raikage's speed and Minato has the speed to keep up. Not to mention that Itachi and Minato are one of the few most intelligent characters in the manga. Also you people use hype as basis of strenght. Sarutobi was supposedly the best shinobi in the world, but I really doubt he'd stand much of a chance against Madara or Hashirama. Only thing that's credible is feats that are displayed.
