Okay so we have evidence that they are equal and relative for Momo's arc.

I've already provided evidence that Sasuke was weaker.
So you saying Naruto purposely weakened himself to get caught off guard?
Yes the matter of times does matter when the MS ability could not previously do it, but when he's caught off guard, he suddenly can? That is the definition of an outlier if you choose to ignore the off-guard shit. You are claiming that Shin can now harm someone who he previously couldn't.
This reason is ass, and you know it.
There's no justification at all for it other than (Comparable to his attack potency).
If he was actively taking chakra, we would have seen chakra pills. Also, love how the next page gets ignored of Naruto going I just like making shit hard for you.
Why would we use a stronger Sasuke's rating for a weaker one?why would we use a rating of a Sasuke from 10 years ago over one from 6 months ago? be fr
Get a better argument. Naruto in that moment, wasn't caught off guard. To say that Shin catching Naruto off guard is stronger than that Sasuke is asinine.
There is, though. Sasuke when fighting Shin the first time is weakened.
No I think Sasuke's durability went up when he regained his chakra and that its nuts to say a weaker Sasuke = Sasuke that fought momo.

But as shown, we have Shin's MS not able to penetrate or harm Naruto without catching him off guard.
By this sites own definition it would be the definition of an outlier if the caught off guard stuff is ignored seeing as it's out of his normal paygrade with MS. And fills two of the requirements to be labeled as one.
And we know that Sasuke is weakened from the amount of Tomes in his eye, which shows how much chakra he has.

you haven't proven he's tiers weaker.
now you're just reaching. how did you get "Naruto is weakening himself intentionally" from "Naruto can increase his durability further than the passive protection Kurama's chakra gives him."
He damaged Naruto and Sasuke. two instances. Their blocking an attack is not evidence that the attack can't harm them especially when we clearly see it can.
not really, even Base Naruto has 5-B feats at this point.
I posted a picture of him actively taking chakra stop ignoring evidence for the sake of an agenda. Naruto saying "we Ninja don't like to make things easy" does not mean he's stopping Momo from taking any of it.
Especially when the previous page is Momo complaining that there's so much chakra, not that it's hard to get any chakra out of him. Naruto being an asshole to the guy that captured him isn't proof of anything.
You're suggesting we use the rating of a Sasuke from 14 years ago rather than one from 6 months later.
I asked you to prove he was on guard and you basically said I have no idea.
until you can prove that a Sasuke with unquantifiably less chakra isn't 5-B this doesn't really matter.
no one said they were equal. but you have yet to prove why Sasuke would be many times less durable because he's unquantifiably weaker. Even weakened he's still relative to Naruto who's 5-B in Base.

I've proved he's unknown and weaker already I've provided the scans and reasoning.
No reaching would be saying a weaker Sasuke is as strong as his strongest Sasuke which you are doing. I'm Just going off the logic you providing.
And as stated, Naruto was off guard, and Sasuke was weakened. We acting like chakra doesn't buff stats at all and catching people off guard doesn't exist.
Base Naruto is unknown also and relies on future scaling to get his base form to 5-B. Now you're trying to do what is done to Sasuke for Naruto. It's illogical scaling.
Stop ignoring evidence that you haven't provided?
Do we not see what happens when he takes chakra from someone? We do? Huh weird something doesn't match with your scan.
Wait, where are the pills that show he took chakra from Naruto? They no exist here so what does that tell? Something that's more plausible than what you said.
So ignorance of evidence now? Great.
I'm using the unknown Sasuke to give a weakened Sasuke an unknown rating instead of giving him the rating of when he's stronger than the current one.
Maybe the lack of the symbol for off guard gives it away or reading the scans IDK. Take your pick it's up to you.
I have already did so though. You just don't agree with it.
He's not using Susanoo and he doesn't have any planet-level durability feats here.
- 16,686
- 12,599
He should at least be as strong as Part 2 Sasuke, right?
Again, WEAKENED and INJURED base form.
That's what happens when he takes chakra from someone who can't fight back.Do we not see what happens when he takes chakra from someone? We do? Huh weird something doesn't match with your scan.
Wait, where are the pills that show he took chakra from Naruto? They no exist here so what does that tell? Something that's more plausible than what you said.
That's not what that is.
-_- that's not how being on guard works.
BECAUSE IT IS WRONG.

Guess what part is and what I've been saying this whole time? Unknown.
In the future not this one in question. Part 2 naruto in base is unknown.
And it proves that he didn't take any chakra from Naruto or he took so little chakra it couldn't form the pills.
Kinda is.
*Stares at the examples that disprove you
Huh?
Then provide better reasoning for why it's wrong.
Why would Sasuke scale to his AP in this moment?

Yeah I agree with the downgrade, I never once agreed with this 5-B scaling for every single Boruto-Era character that disregards logic.
1. Multiple Statements of Being Weaker
For starters, you literally have 1 quote from Naruto, 1 quote from Kurama, and another quote from Sasuke that they were weakened or not at their peak during the Shin Arc. Already you have multiple pieces of evidence that the Naruto and Sasuke are unquantifiably weaker than their 5-B peak.
2. Sasuke's Intentions were not Lethal on Shin
The argument to scale the Shin clone to 5-B Sasuke is already invalid due to Sasuke admitting to being weaker at this point, but to use the evidence of the Shin clone surviving a fireball is incredulous.
Sasuke literally says in the same page that he is firing the Jutsu that he is going to get answers out of Shin. That's pretty quite obvious that Sasuke is not using his full power in that Fireball Jutsu. Literally use your brain here, to Naruto and Sasuke they are the most powerful beings on the planet far beyond every other Ninja and hundreds of magnitudes above the Akatsuki (who Shin is claiming to be with his regalia), why on Earth would Sasuke use his full power?
You're essentially assuming a similar analogy of an adult human attempting to subdue a moving baby by going full force instead of recognizing they are much stronger and would therefore need to restrict their strength.
The Fireball Jutsu feat holds no merit when Sasuke directly states in the same panel that he intended for Shin to survive; therefore, Sasuke is holding back.
The movie itself was already retconned by the anime and the primary canon itself, the manga.
Not to mention it's a guidebook statement of the retconned movie. Dude, this is like 3 layers of retconning and no longer canon in any sense.
Urashiki is literally a filler arc with nothing to do with the manga, it was never canon.
4. Naruto Was Absolutely Caught Off-Guard
Naruto's Kurama Chakra Avatar literally stops Shin's blades easily right before.
With Kurama's direct statement of Naruto's Battle Senses being dull and Naruto himself going "..?" we can clearly tell that Naruto was caught off-guard.
That's two pieces of evidence that Naruto was off-guard and one literal counter feat of an on-guard Naruto easily stopping the blades with his Chakra Cloak.
Which is it, Naruto bros? Can Naruto stop the blades or can he not stop the blades?? You can't have your cake and eat it.
To summarize, you have multiple statements of Naruto and Sasuke being weaker, you have a statement from Sasuke stating that he is holding back, you have a literal counter feat of Naruto being able to stop the blades previously, and you have two statements proving Naruto was off-guard to support the previous point.
In no world does Shin Uchiha scale to Naruto and Sasuke who have multiple statements of being weaker than their peaks, who are clearly obviously holding back to get information from Shin, and already had feats of quite easily stopping Shin's attacks when prepared for it.

I'm generally against putting characters at completely unknown when they're shown harming others. The fact of the matter is, Shin did hurt Naruto in his cloaked form and his method of doing so doesn't negate durability. Not to mention that this was cloaked naruto that shin hurt, and we already rate naruto in base at 5-B cause he was able to tank hits from a fused momoshiki in base, so there's not a lot of wiggle room to act like his durability is that much lower in a rusty cloaked form. Especially cause being rusty in this instance is more about reactions and exerting themselves, not about their actual power.
Shin can still be weaker than Naruto and Sasuke but able to harm them and all of his stuff looks like a case of that.

that Naruto is 6 months before Momo Arc. And we know for a fact Naruto doesn't train at this time due to hokage duties.
- 4,477
- 4,551
I know but the bigger issue I have is assuming that base form naruto about 6 months in the future is both stronger and tougher than his cloaked version from before then to a degree that scaling between the two is unreliable. While that is a good amount of time, seeing as the arc is all about how Naruto can't make time for his family and the lack of real threats that'd he'd be preparing for as hokage, such a drastic increase in strength and durability that his base form exceeds his cloaked form feels unsubstantiated.
- 20,606

With an attack that took Naruto by surprise and by an attack Naruto blocked before with minimal effort beforehand. I don't think a single instance that the work took time to handwave means much. Especially when Shin was stomped and consistently shown to be weaker than two nerfed characters.

He/Him- 2,820

Blocking attacks doesn't necessarily mean he can't be injured by them and Sasuke was still injured too while he was on guard.
And even if he was off guard the Kurama Cloak was still penetrated. And we've seen that his KN and KCM cloaks continuously protects him while he's in those forms
.While chakra is more powerful when it's concentrated to fulfill a purpose(like we see with Naruto blocking the attacks later) even Kurama's Chakra cloak should still be capable of blocking any attack that's not at least somewhat relative to Naruto especially since Kurama actively watches Naruto while he fights.
- 20,606
- 17,606
It means there's a notable difference between Naruto when he's readied and Naruto when he's not.
Do you have an example where when off guard the cloak has protected Naruto from a similar style of attack?
Godernet
He/Him- 2,820
- 3,780
I agree but that difference is too unquantifiable to slap an unknown rating on Shin's MS ability. Especially when an on-guard Sasuke was also injured and even Base Naruto is 5-B at this point.
Naruto doesn't get stabbed often so not exactly like this but I believe there are some examples in the earlier fight with Edo Madara and IIRC a statement that Naruto's cloaked forms can protect and attack as if they have a mind of their own due to Kurama.
I'll have to double check.
