Most the paths are weak or have no good durability that scales them to ms sasukes amaterasu let alone Healthy Itachi. Also yes this isn't speed equal so itachi is running this man over this. If he touches all them with Ama which he can it'll kill most of them and leave the absorption one, deva and maybe asura.
yea he can probably even absorb the totska blade.
Didn't work out so well for Nagato lol.
To be fair, the absorption isn't passive and Nagato didn't even attempt it, but the Susanoo itself is just chakra and as such the Preta Path should be able to absorb both the entire thing and the Totsuka Sword/Yata Mirror.
His basic attacks can take out most of the paths, only the asura and deva paths could take this
maybe but he would need to touch it first which is not happening before it gets a fist to its face. Theoretically it could absorb that fist but it would need to activate absorption first, when even Danzo couldn't react to Sasuke's weaker susanoo.
idk about that. The totsuka blade is described as having no physical form and being a spirit weapon. I don't thinky you can just absorb that.
Again, spirit weapons
Because he couldn't. We've seen two people get stabbed by the blade, and both of them just got yeeted without being able to retaliate in any way. It's not like Nagato can't absorb attacks that have already connected with him either (He absorbed Bee's V2 Lariat and Jiraiya's Rasengan once they made contact with him, for example), so I think the simplest answer is that he just couldn't in this case.
I think there's two issues with this idea:
He wouldn't need to absorb it after it connects though, he'd do the preta absorb shield thing as Itachi is swinging at him, it would be absorbed before making contact.
Just want to say, I'm not arguing Pain would win, was just asking something I was curious about.
That was never stated iirc, all the Susanoo protected Kurama from was Hashirama's jutsu to put the Biju to sleep, which he uses immediately after breaking part of the Susanoo.
The Databook just mentions that it was created by Madara as a defense against Hashirama's Jijun-Jutsu in general, not specifically the one that put Bijū to sleep. It doesn't even make much sense for it to be that one since he hadn't seen it yet, he only saw the Wood Dragon up til that point.
Given that they're literally formed alongside his Susanoo and match it exactly, I think it's pretty reasonable to conclude they're chakra.
Even if it can theoretically be absorbed, I already explained that the preta path can't react to the blade in time to absorb it. If it's too fast for Orochimaru and Nagato, it's too fast for Pain.
HUH??? but kishimoto told us they are spirit weapons having no physical form, Physical form is something chakra has. Them forming doesn't mean they are charka. I think it just makes much sense for these spirit weapons to be distinctively different from chakra weapons given the databooks description.
They're not inherently part of his Susano'o, he can consciously choose to bring them out or not. For example, he brought out the Yata Mirror when he was in the humanoid stage, but other times he didn't bring it out.
Again though, I wasn't arguing that Pain would win so whether or not he can react in time was never part of my argument.
This as well, Itachi while fatigued was swinging it reacting to the hydra. So idk this is healthy itachi it should be much faster

Nagato still had some time to see the blade poking out of the smoke into him.
Uh...Nelliels literally just posted one
Far less time than he would have had had the smoke not been there to give Itachi an easy hit.
He will know but after testing some amaterasu which will waste his chakra so my stand still remains
Or He doesnt know which one revives other before testing A Couple of amaterasu on other ones my stand still remains same
Shuriken spam and fire style can be countered by shinra tensei preta path asura path and even the summoning path can tank some hits. If itachi directs an assult specifically against one path then he could easily kill one path although that path would just get revived or saved by other paths. Itachi needs the susanoo in this battle he can't without it.His basic attacks can take out most of the paths, only the asura and deva paths could take this
and survive, along with Itachi's powerful fire style once
He will literally see the king of hell rise near him and know what are you saying dude?
Actually, according to the DB his Eight-Headed Serpent (Hydra) form is his strongest Jutsu, period. That would make it scale to or above Orochimaru at his strongest. It's also stronger than Manda, who's stronger than weakened Orochimaru as well, making the whole thing consistent.
Proof it amps his speed? Not on his profile
So?! He will not know what it will do & what if Deva path Blocks him for that small Moment & some path got revived I dont think you know what you are saying I am not saying pain will definitely beat itachi I am saying this could either way
I'm saying given how smart itachi is I doubt he's gonna be like "oh no what shall I ever do its the king of hell ahhh", no itachi will analyze and deduce which path summoned it and target that path resulting in it's death which stops anymore res. Also Deva path is blocking what? Amaterasu? Totska blade? no he isn't blocking those at all.
It being his strongest Jutsu already covers all of that.
That isn't how it works, strongest in what way? AP? Versatility? Speed?
It specifically mentions strength and size, so obviously AP.
Then why did you respond to my post about that... We were discussing Pain's ability to react to the Totsuka Blade, so that's what I was referring to.
Why act as though a jutsu being his strongest and being above him wouldn't account for all stats?
