no it’t not, its never stated nor implied he needs to go threw multiple mirrors to achieve LS. Not really, it just mean they have strong bodies. The raikage can survive being moved at those speeds but that doesn’t make him stronger than her. The fact that a partially blind/sick/ injured itachi could even react to a supposedly unavoidable attack already makes the hype sus
What the databook says is that Haku can move
between mirrors at the speed of light, not into or out of.
My point is not scaling durability, but that it heavily suggests Tsunade herself is slower than light, probably to a significant degree. And the Sannin are far faster than Base Guy, considering even 6th Gate Guy is
only marginally faster than clone nerfed
KCM Naruto, who's pretty much in the ballpark of the Gokage or a little higher (given his performance against the Edo Kage). The Sannin having
consistent scaling to the Kage (the last thing's not direct but Suigetsu considers Oro a threat to Sasuke despite seeing him battle against Ay and Gaara). If Tsunade's multiple Gates faster than Guy, she really should not be ripped apart by a speed he can handily intercept.
Itachi couldn't dodge it, he just mentally activated an ability. And my point is not that Kirin is literally undodgeable, but that it being considered such makes it being reactable to by the likes of Base Guy and Lee very illogical.
Yeah, I'm with
@The_one_you_least_expect here
There are multiple plausible counter arguments to this
1. The LS transportation stuff with Mabui can be just due to it being "travel speed" rather than short bursts of movement.
Same way flash can die (not stamina issues. He was literally getting burnt to death) by running at Mach 7 multiple times around the earth even though he can move short distances in picoseconds
I think that's a fair argument, but it's implied that the Raikage are the
only ones who can be safely transported with it period, not just over long distances. Also Tsunade and Ay seem to be in pain
even before they've been transported out of the room, as if just the build up to LS is too much for them.
2. Guy and Lee don't necessarily need to be LS to react and kick Haku
Sure but their speed would need to be relativistic at least, which they are not (at least in base, I'm fine with them being around LS with higher Gates).
3. Even if they were, it can be chalked down to them being that high due to war arc buffs as we saw with Kakashi
See what I said above about even 6th Gate Guy only being like Sannin/Gokage level+ in speed
4. There's also the less nice option of chalking it as an outlier for Lee and Guy. We already do the same for Sasuke and Naruto during the initial arc
I mean you could do that but reinterpreting if you can reasonably is preferable to just calling things outliers
5. Kirin isn't even a limiter perse. It works as a cap for nearly everything shown in the series prior. As I explained in the original thread, BZ isn't some kind of omnipotent source of information. Otherwise, we'll be applying the cap to characters like Juubi Jin Hagoromo. Further backed up by us seeing Itachi counter the same jutsu a few pages later
Either way, Base Guy and Lee (at least Guy prior to the Obito fight where he becomes MKCM Naruto level for some reason) are not intercepting something that almost blitzed Itachi. Or even something that Hebi Sasuke deems undodgeable.
I think we only accept that as true if the attacks fuse together. I think we explicitly do not accept that multiple separate attacks occurring concurrently is a multiplier.
I mean I don't have a big stake in it, it's just that thinking about it, if you're applying 2 of the same attack to the same area with say 100 TT of force each, that area would be on the receiving end of 200 TT of total energy, even if it's not as concentrated as it would be if it was the surface area of one attack. Also with stuff like the Rasengan Barrage, the Rasengan explosions do tend to
merge.
