The Databook says that Hashi and Madara were equal in strength, Madara knew this and probably only use Kurama in the hope of break this balance. And it makes sense, but he used it wrongly, using it as a summon was a mistake, clearly he didn't know that the weakness of the bijuus would be precisely the Mokuton, but he should have thought about it, a monster that he himself could easily subdue would clearly be no match for someone of the same level as him. He should have sealed Kurama in himself or just used it as a chakra source, he could even summon it when they were exhausted... anyway, Madara EMS with Kurama in his arsenal is very strong if used well.

Makes a lotta sense. Kinda like what Sasuke did to Kurama BOShippuden.
 
I’m confident Boruto will end its run between 10-15M volumes in circulation. Iirc, NNG alone already passed 5M between France & Japan sales alone. Idek what the US sales have been…
 
Why should we consider LS Jounin as literal and non hyperbolic when Black Zetsu considers lightning extremely fast for high tier beyond jounin level characters (even if you want to say Kirin is light speed, the argument still works against you as BZ considers light undodgable for these beyond jounin level characters), and we know that you need Ay (or nigh Ay) level durability to withstand moving at light speed, Ay in his base form should be far far stronger than average jounin.

Edit: also, outside of that character being a jounin, why are we assuming that the light speed technique of there’s scales to every other jounin? What argument exists for that outside of equivocation?
 
I think this character's case can be treated as exclusive to him. It doesn't make sense to simply scale any random jonin, and he was amplified by a jutsu that has the purpose of taking him to this speed. It would be the same as scaling anyone stronger than Haku to FTL just because he is LS
 
No
The characters are like 14 years apart
It's like scaling Torune to current or even pre tbv Konohamaru because of their ranks
It would be fine if chakra operates as a cultivation type system but it doesn't

The Databook and many other things in the verse are considered undodgeable then proceeds to reacted to. It's also why we accept Haku being LS despite many characters scaling above him. My point being that there are various meta's for speed fin the verse and using BZ statement which is massively contradicted by various feats and statements.

No that's fine because I said with the jutsu, so he can be a cut above normal Jounin just not Anbu. In fact the wiki says that he has decent skills so this should definitely put him below Anbu who are the elite.

Is it stated that they're 14 years apart?
That example it's stated and shown otherwise but this is more the opposite.

Shippuden to retsuden is around 12 to 14 years
Besides, this doesn't work because all the anbu members don't have the same capabilities
BoS sai was an anbu
Itachi was an anbu
Even Boruto has an anbu unit
Backscaling simply doesn't work
Related to that, they also can't be generally put above Jonins by default because the latter also doesn't have the same capabilities
Guy is beating the brakes off any anbu member from part 1 to part 2

Tl;Dr
Find better arguments for the ls Raikiri scaling
 
Hi, can I ask a question in the discussion section? I'm wondering how valid the Canon databooks for Boruto and Naruto are? Does using scales and power values invalidate Canon?
 
I noticed something while rewatching Naruto. Yes, Sakura gives information about chakra, she states that there are 2 types of chakra. Mental chakra develops with training and the other is physical chakra formed by cells. Mental chakra develops with training, the amount of chakra can increase as you work. So doesn't this chakra provide resistance to soul pressure?

I'm referring to the actual character Hakubi.
Are we led to believe the one protecting Tsunade doesn't have better than Decent skills unlike Hakubi?
Cool.
Even better.
I'll take it.
Does Hakubi have any feats? Does he give Kakashi a hard time? Anything to say that he's above Anbu?
Guy Goated. He has feats that put him above Anbu like beating them up but does Hakubi? If not then this is completely valid to use.

Proof?

It's also why we accept Haku being LS despite many characters scaling above him.
It's only stated that it's possible for Haku to move at light speed, not that he does. So characters scaling above him doesn't mean they scale to light speed. His normal movement speed just isn't light speed at all.

My point being that there are various meta's for speed fin the verse
The meta you proposed is just not supported.

and using BZ statement which is massively contradicted by various feats and statements.
Why

I'm telling you that they don't have anything that remotely connect them scaling wise
One is an anbu. One is a Jonin.
There are some anbu members who scale above Jonins and vice versa
Protecting Tsunade, or any hokage for that matter, is a non factor. Anyone strong enough to threaten tsunade no diffs him. Naruto had a Chunin as a bodyguard. That's not grounds for putting her against, say, Asuma.
Even worse, it's in the new era. The same era where kakashi is massively above his war arc self. And where randoms can train hard enough to surpass itachi
