Itachi and jiraiya was the only two strong enough at the time to protect the village. That’s why he left him alone. He wasn’t going to allow the only two protectors of the village left to kill each other. The 3rd hokage wasn’t on their level anymore and was jus a figure head.
he would never have fought jiraiya. he purposely waited for jiraiya to be around naruto to use that as an excuse for not capturing him. Itachi could easily enter the village whenever he wanted and kidnap Naruto if he was really evil
@@Spy_X_Zero bro if u say me hiruzen was strongest in his prime he was consider as stronger than 3rd raikage,Hanzo,white fang and all legendary sannin Even in the old age he pushed orichimaru at limit fought former two hokage he skills are acknowledge by previous two hokage and he knows all justu of leaf village
Itachi was acting 💀. He didn’t want to harm the leaf village and he definitely didn’t want the Akatski to get their hands on Naruto so he used Jiraiya as an excuse to not attack. But in reality Itachi could have shit on Jiraiya. If you look at when Itachi was reanimated he was way stronger than KCM1 Naruto which we know is stronger than Jiraiya, and Itachi had to save both KCM1 Naruto and Bee from Nagato.
@@NanamiBlitzer it wasn't stated anywhere in the anime or manga that itachi was acting, you itachi yards cannot accept that. Itachi himself said jiraiya was stronger than him what more do you want. If itachi fought jiraiya and lost that day you people will still find something to say 🤦♂️. Just accept it kid jiraiya >>>> itachi
@@NanamiBlitzer it wasn't stated anywhere that itachi was acting. What more do you want kid kishimoto did his best to show you how strong itachi is to the point that he made itachi confess that jiraiya is stronger than him but you still dont get it your are just fixated on Being biased.
I said something similar about how nothing scares Itachi. Real just recognizes real and he was telling the truth. I'd see the fight going down as Kisame dying and Jiraiya allowing Itachi to flee since Jiraiya knows about Itachi
@@Numba14if that were true then they would've made their move. Even, though Itachi was a double agent he still new Pervy Sage was a beast with those hands.
Yeah, nice head canon but it's not what he said or ever said. He was willing to kill other leaf ninja and had no real desire to protect Naruto, he never interfered in other kidnapping attempts. So yeah, while he probably didn't want to speed up the plan he also wasn't going to stop it either. Jiraiya was likely a good excuse not to take Naruto right then, but it's also true that it probably would have been to much of a fight for the two of them. Not even saying that together they couldn't have won. Just that they both be on the verge of death at the end of it at best. He'll, if nothing else Jiraiya probably could have pushed Itachi hard enough that his disease would have taken him out.
@@Goachieve007it was stated itachi was a hero for the leaf as he said himself to sasuke..a near death itachi no diff orochimaru who was implied to be the strongest sanin but also stated to be equal to Jiraiya so itachi is still above that,itachi in the novels was stated to be obito rival Sick Itachi in pt1 is stated to be light speed & jiraiya has no light speed feats to prove that he can react to & then jiraiya has no feats to counter itachi genjustu 😂
@@wcsdiariesItachi didn't know about saje justu when he no diffed orochi hi was in the akatski when orochinfought lord 3rd he was on different level and jiraya he was able to fight pain in his own city without knowing anything about him And every one knows about sharingan I'm not a Itachi hater but if they fight they both die jiraya clone flatened jigen and jiraya basically recked uroshiki and he had a rinegan too so
As he admits and his stats in the stat books, Itachis sickness means he has low stamina, Itachi is being smart Jiraiya just has too many advantages Although Itachi even nerfed as an edo tensei, he didn't have that handicap of being sick and he threw hands with ease against Naruto in his Kyubii mode so that could be a different story..
But thing is when kisame said this, he didn't know he was sick. Itachis sickness was progressive but it was also new. It was caused by his mangekyo but it didn't really become a visible problem till the preparation for the fight with sasuke. Where he actually physically coughed up blood and went blind. Remember the timeskip between the Uchiha massacare it was about 5 years. Which madara told him there was a 25% chance with his medication which we all saw sasuke after his fight with killer bee
@johnathanperez9744jiriyah can beat itachi because itachi doesn’t have a perfected Susano and Susano drains almost all your chakra and jiriyah would only have to go in sage mode in use that forbidden jutsu ti beat itachi
@johnathanperez9744first of all he struggled at first because of how confused he was fighting them but the second he got his is bearings he started basically blitzing all of them before demonic illusion was even ready and those 3 pains have been shown putting in work in the village along side deva and have abilities in there arsenal that can take care of itachi honestly the animal and preta are enough not to mention that when he got sneak attacked and ended up fighting all of them he still help his own long enough to kill one ok let me say it again he was fighting all 6 of the 6 path of pain at the same time including deva WITH ONE ARM and held his own enough to kill one
@johnathanperez9744 second of all it does matter if he’s edo because due to him being edo he has unlimited chakra stamina and regeneration so with him being an edo helps him and that only happen in the anime in the manga itachi was attacking Naruto while Naruto was just blocking and defending he wasn’t keeping up he wasn’t reacting ok Naruto at best threw one or 2 punches at best but that doesn’t scale him anywhere XD Third of all “ if Itachi pulls out the susano, there’s nothing jiraya can do”…… what about the summonings that have been shown to be powerful and fast enough to fight, tailed beasts, and before you say “oh they can easily be sealed” again those summonings has been shown to fast enough to react to tailed beast in are equipped with their own swords and shield to think that they cannot dodge that sword or block it with their own is ridiculous and then he has the swamp of the underworld, which just re-search it on your own and you can see how itachi doesn’t really have much to do against that like he can’t reflected, because the shield only protects One Direction, and that ability goes everywhere. He can’t just simply jump, because jiraya can just punish him with the Mayham technique to flatten him right back on the swamp, what about art of the region lions mane that he can use to pull him out by his feet?, What about bath of the boiling oil which can affect a part of the susano that isn’t protected and it’s just like the swamp goes in all directions, then there is demonic illusion, frog song, and much more
@@Amr_Dno giant frog can go toe to toe with a susanoo and that too a special one with totsuka blade and yasaka mirror, watch the anime instead of calling people itachi rider where you are riding some giant frog's meat
@NukzFN I’d say jiraya > orochimaru. Orochimaru is a back line assassin. Jiraya is a mid/front line bruiser. Face to face jiraya all the way. If orochimaru sneaks around he wins. My opinion.
@@cestlavie4062Jiraiya himself admitted that there's only 2 times he's been close to death 1 after caught peeping by Tsunade and getting beaten by her and 2 when Naruto went four tails on him which Jiraiya only survived by using a seal to repress the chakra
Its just as Kisame said🙌 Kisame had no affection towards Jiraiya or Konoha , So we can 100% Trust his Words🤷🏻 And Itachi is Sick. Even if Itachi can go toe to toe with Jiraiya , He would lose Eventually. It depends on whether Itachi can finish the fight with Something like Totsuka blade very Fast🙌 But the point is ... Jiraiya can take on 2 of the Strongest Akatsuki in his Prime and have a fair Chance of Winning💥
Ehh thing is when kisame said it, we have to take in consideration that no one knew itachi was sick except obito. Itachi was the one a lot of the akatsuki wanted to fight, i feel like they would try to fight itachi more.
Kisame could've been deluded by Itachi's words and scared of what itachi said. Remember it was all an act and itachi could've been bullshitting to bluff kisame
Itachi: You are already under my Genjutsu 🗿😈🔥 Jiraya : This level of Genjutshu doesn't work on me 🗿🥱🔥 Itachi : I didn't included you and Hashirama 🫠 Both of them are True Legends 🥺❤️🔥
Let's not forget Jiraiya is next level frightening. Imagine getting trapped inside of a toad's stomach to be digested by it's acid. Unless you have teleportation Justu or amaterasu like in Itachi's case your a goner.
Jiraiya has the advantage with stamina A big one indeed, edo tensei itachi was on a diff kevel but itachi alive even with susanoo will have a hard time fighting jiraiya with sage mode
It's not about being afraid, first of all Itachi was in the side of leaf and he respects jiraiya, he tricked kisame and told jiraiya the plans of akatsuki. Itachi didn't wanted to fight jiraiya , and put both himself and jiraiya in danger so he chosed to escape. The thing about smart and strong ppl is that they already know when & whom to fight. Itachi simply showed his brilliance here.
@@jeyajaya6110otsutsuki. No way you said that😂😂. You are scaling kojis jutsu to jiriyahs. That’s like saying kid sasukes fire ball is like adult sasukes . You are delusional bro
Could Itachi beat Jiraiya? Yes. Could Jiraiya beat Itachi? Yes. The fact is that Jiraiya was one of the few on Itachi's level of ability. Some may say that Itachi beat Orochimaru easily therefore should beat Jiraiya as well, but that's not how any of this works. Different people have different strengths and weaknesses. We don't really know how a fight between them would go, but Itachi was probably being cautious. He was being cautious about Kakashi as well. Oh, and he was a secret ally of the Leaf and probably didn't want to fight and potential kill an ally.
Itachi sent the lady via genjustu to warn Jiraiya since with Kisame he couldn't meet in person to give regular intel. Make the situation tense and look real enough not to arouse suspicion. Itachi cover is still intact.
Itachi is a cunning and manipulative strategist who often conceals his intentions and true motivations, which could imply that he may have lied to Kisame or other characters in the series to achieve his goals. And let's not forget that Jiraya struggled against Pain while Itachi defeated Nagato (who was more powerful than Pain).
Itachi defeated nagato .. not pain .. and nagato was in control of reanimation jutsu .. so he was not fully conscious. And please don't say nagato and pain are same.. i know they are same .. pain is different than nagato . Whole purpose of it to put nagato secret .. Secondly if jiraiya would have known pain secret .. jiraiya could have defeated him easily.. he was there to gather intel .. he never knew the secrets.. he sacrificed himself for intel..
@@thesymbiotee Agreed, Itachi only beat a puppet version of Nagato and with a LOT of help from some of the most powerful characters in the series. If Itachi had gone against Nagato solo then I think Itachi is going to lose pretty badly. A much more fair fight would be Itachi vs Pain, but I still think that Itachi loses that one since Itachi does actually die due to exhausting his chakra. So does Nagato, but Nagato did way more impressive things leading up to his death.
Itachi was the best double agent ever. He was always being a shadow hokage working from behind the scenes. He knew that not only would he probably lose that fight cuz jiraya is not to be messed with and he was trying to protect people from the akatsuki so it made sense to play off the fear in kisame and himself in that moment. Plus Itachi also knew that Sasuke and Naruto were close and he wasn’t gonna do that to his brother he had already tortured the kid enough Itachi did what he had to do to protect the village but he couldn’t kill his little brother. The Uchiha clan was planning an uprising and the only person Itachi couldn’t truly kill was his brother so he did the only thing he could think to do in that moment and made his brother hate him for it and made him think he became an evil man to protect him cuz he loved Sasuke deeply and wanted better for him.
Nah Itachi was the one who's was leaking Intel to jiraya they confirm his mission to leak Intel about the Akatsuki jiraya has someone he needs to meet every so often to get said information. Plus tsykuomi is a great way to talk to someone for hours in nano seconds
In hindsight, Itachi was only going after Naruto to see what kind of person he was because he should have heard by now that Naruto and Sasuke had a strong bond.
Itachi just has literal one shot abilities if he catches anyone off guard he wins. And he’s just very smart like 3 steps ahead. Totska blade one shots anything, orochimaru, Nagato
substitution , shadow , clone , mud wall , art of the raging lions , mane needle jizo and then followed up with a needle senbom lots of things honestly now how's he going to perceive the attack ? That's also simple . Obito States that he knew Sasuke was going to do Amataratsu before he even did it because he can sence the buildup of chakra in his left eye not only does jiraya have sage mode but he also has an attack in his base form , called the tengai perimeter barrier which allows him to sence anyone and anything that enters it and he can use that ability to do exactly what I just said up top The susano is also simple he can summon his toads which has been shown to be powerful enough and fast enough to fight tailed beast and are equipped with their own sword and shield . Don't say that . " Oh itachi is going to easily seal them " because , as I said , before , those tolls have been shown to be extremely fast and extremely agile to be extremely fast and extremely agile to fight , tailed beasts , you really think that they cannot avoid a sword slashing at them , or block it with their own sword , and or shield come on and then there is the swamp of the underworld which it's too much to explain just simply look it up and you can see that Hitachi doesn't have much to do against that one attack he can't just simply reflect it , because the shield only protects One Direction . It's not omnidirectional , and the swamp goes everywhere . He can't just simply jump out of it , because jiraya can punish him with the Mayham technique flattening him right back on the swamp leading him to drown in a bottomless pit , then there is the bath of boiling oil , which is said to be as hot as several thousand degrees , and just as omnidirectional as the swamp , and can affect the part of the susano that are not protected a.k.a. his legs , then there is the art of the region lions mane when she came manipulate the same way Garra can manipulate his sand and pull him out by his hair , then there is demonic , illusion , and frog song , need me say more ? Orochimaru was just testing him and other akatsuki members ; his jutsu's and immortality are on different level
Itachi also sick, and jiraiya has sealing swords aswell in his arsenal as seen with the fight against pain. Along with sage justu (said to be a class of its own) and one of the most powerful genjutsu said to rival Tsukuyomi
@@M_AX_D that's not even true. even after he transformed into sage mode he was still getting blitzed by the paths of pain, who weren't even going all out against him. Not only was there only 3/6 paths of pain actually fighting, but 2 of the paths he was fighting were SUPPORT paths, not even known for their 1v1 or offensive capabilities, but known for their passive abilities that don't cause harm or fatigue the opponent. And 1 of those 3 didn't even use their rinnegan ability (the soul stealing) so technically he was fighting only 2 paths who were also holding back by not using their stronger jutsu so as to not destroy their own village. The SECOND all 6 paths of pain stepped in he got one shot and put on his death bed. Also, orochimarus summons have been shown to be able to blitz gamabunta, itachi one shot and sealed orochimarus summon in an instant, WHILE itachi was on his death bed, seconds away from death already. So no, jiraiyas summons wouldn't work against itachis susanoo. Itachi was keeping up with and reacting to attacks thrown by KCM1 naruto who's faster than sage naruto who's faster than pain who blitzed jiraiya. Putting itachis reaction speed and movement speed>>>jiraiya IMMENSELY (to the point where itachi could blitz jiraiya at almost double the speed pain blitzed jiraiya in sage mode with)
The cool thing about this is Kisame doesnt trust anyone and the only one he forms some sort of bond with ultimately wants to betray their mission, honestly makes sense why he is so ruthless, nobody follows the code of conduct he honours and he is always correct in assuming that is just human nature, atleast thats my understanding of this mysterious character
Jiraya can easily beat Itachi bcz he can seal Amaterasu and he can easily break any genjutsu. If u don't know this and telling Itachi is more powerful then u haven't watched Naruto.
Sealing takes way too much time to prepare for how fast amaterasu is. Minato barely got the sealing jutsu off in time to teleport a bijuu bomb which is arguably slower than amaterasu activation. He also wouldn’t be able to escape tsukuyomi, which doesn’t require eye contact either. When kakashi was put in a tsukuyomi, tsunade (the worlds best medical ninja at the time) couldn’t even get him out of it, so what do you actually expect jiraiya to do that tsunade wouldn’t have already tried?
@@ohok823 F bro. U forgot Itachi can use hi ms ability for only 3 times a day. If Itachi will use Amaterasu 3 times he can't able to use Tsukoyomi or Susano.
@@ffgnikhilgaming9621 in a fight against Sasuke Itachi was spamming amaterasu tsukuyomi and susanoo without running out of chakra, also Jiraya can not seal amaterasu on himself, only can seal the ones that are not on him. Because he needs his paper seals to seal it and if Itachi hits Jiraya with amaterasu then it will quickly cover Jiraya's body, clothes and Jiraya's paper seals will start burning as well so he cant use them, also Itachi is billion times faster, he can kill Jiraya without even amaterasu. Also no one can escape tsukuyomi, only those who have ms and mastered using their ms, Jiraya doesnt even have regular sharingan, he can never escape it. Also Jiraya cant do anything against Itachi's susanoo because it has strongest defence and offense.
This statement obviously itachi was showing his brilliance and abilities to lie and to fool everyone despite of him being able to beat and be lost....kudos to itachi he knows where and when to fight stronger opponents...
I mean he still one shotted Orochimaru, which Jiraiya himself struggled with. Itachi speaks of himself humbling knowing his capabilities is more than meets the eye.
Jiraya didn't struggle lmao he was high on drugs. And A=B, B=C therefore A=C logic doesn't work in Naruto. Different people have different abilities which can counter or overpower other. Jiraya was master in breaking genjutsus. He had sage mode. I don't think Itachi stood a chance even with susanoo.
Jirayia has the same issue with Oro as Naruto has with Saskue. He can win but he doesnt want to win. He wants his friend back which he sadly never got to see
@@Hazy_y Fax. Although A healthy Itachi may have been a different story It doesnt really help though because Itachi was still going to go blind unless he cut out saskues eyes
All respect to Jiraiya, he’s my guy. But the Sannin were deemed equal in strength, and Itachi made Orochimaru piss himself. Itachi always has the leaf village’s best interest at heart. He didn’t wanna have to fight Jiraiya if he could avoid it.
@inocentgamer6993he’s literally known for being familiar with genjutsu, not only did he have his own genjutsu REALM that he put sasuke in while he was on his death bed, minutes away from death. But he’s the leader/creator of the sound village, the sound village is known for their genjutsu.
@@ohok823that dont mean shit. Hes not good at breaking genjutsu he has a weakness but he beat someone without a weakness to genjutsu. Do the math buddy. Orochimaru is obviously stronger than itachi but just has a weakness to genjutsu.
People said about how stronger naruto was in that fight but they did not know the fact that Pain was RAPED by a sage mode user. Jiraija can retain the mode indefinitely. Kids just blindly extend itachi's power for no reason.
He was being sincere in this moment. He could no longer go all out at this point without risking death. If he had fought Jiraya with the intention of fighting to the death, he would've lost. If Itachi was in his prime and didn't have to worry about going blind or watching over Sasuke, it would be a very different story.
I mean orochimaru and jiraiya same level But orochimaru and Itachi? I think Itachi and kisame would beat jiraiya Itachi said those words cus he just came to check on sasuke after 3rd's death and give information about akatsuki It's just a personal opinion tho
How do you figure that when the strongest Sannin was Orochimaru and he was easily beaten twice by Itachi without him breaking a sweat. Not only that but Itachi is a master at genjutsu and it's Jiraiya's weak spot. Jiraiya didn't even know what Amaterasu was and I'm sure he wouldn't know not to look in Itachis eyes. Jiraiya would be finished swiftly.
Itachi and Jiraiya tie for the highest skills stats in the series. Itachi very likely acknowledged that he is a real threat, and absolutely acknowledged he didn't want to rob the leaf village if such valuable assets in Jiraiya and Naruto. As for which would win....50/50.
Crazy how people dick ride the hell out of this statement.The facts are that Itachi has ZERO desire to fight or kill someone as important as Jiraiya. Itachi EASILY folded a Sannin that arguably is stronger than Jiraiya, not to mention Jiraiya is INCAPABLE of even defeating Orochimaru.. Itachi is a double agent who’s loyalty is STILL towards the leaf village. He has ZERO interest of fighting people he deems Allies even if they don’t see him as such
Fr people are delusional. Itachi was literally a double agent for the leaf. If he killed Jiraya then the village would have suffered a huge loss, which isn’t in Itachi’s interest. And power wise, they’re not even close. Jiraya would have no answer to Tsukuyomi or the Susanno. Heck I’d argue that he could even be put in danger by some of his other Genjutsu if Jiraya doesn’t realize he’s in one. Granted he does know release and Naruto broke one of them. (Though I don’t think Itachi went all out, especially since it was a 30% clone and I think he probably exercised some restraint towards Naruto.) He just doesn’t have win cons against Itachi. Besides, he has no shot of getting sage mode activated. There is no shot Itachi would just let him do that. Even if he did, Itachi killed Orochimaru’s strongest form with relative ease, so there is no shot sage mode stands a chance.
I like and respect both Itachi and Jiraiya, agreed I doubt Itachi wanted to risk going up against Jiraiya bc deep down Itachi wants to protect the leaf village but imo you can't really use comparisons, Itachi owned Orochimaru, yes and Orochimaru beat Jiraiya, Tsunade and Naruto with help from Kabuto but everyone had a handicap in that episode besides kabuto i think and remember Jiraiya almost defeated pain, he very well could have with more info. You think Orochimaru or Itachi could pull that off? Sorry but I doubt it. This is why anime comparisons are non comparable IMO
@@SamuelNS789 You aren't wrong though, seems like everyone could beat someone that the other couldn't but bottom line is we truly will never know the outcome of Itachi vs Jiraiya because it never happened

@@Beast_Editz_78 I watched it in eng.. If you see the episode(85) he was surprised how Itachi broke toad stomach and the way he speaks about the black flam he is not aware of it
Itachi knows his limits(despite his auto-immune disease). He also respects the power and skill set of other powerful shinobi.The way itachi and Kisame mention Jaraiya strength is a firm respect of his abilities. Itachi also mentioned before that if he face Jaraiya? Both of them will die....
I see a lot of comments either saying Itachi didn't want to hurt the Leaf by killing/severly wounding himself and Jiraiya (or likewise wanting to protect his brother from the Akatsuki) or that Itachi truthfully didn't think he could beat Jiraiya. Honestly I'm inclined to believe both explanations. Jiraiya went toe to toe with Pain, who we know is stronger than Itachi, and even though he lost, it still proves Itachi would have his work cut out for him. He also wasn't able to escape without using Amaterasu. Finally, his fight with Sasuke proved an all-out fight against a strong opponent while utilizing the MS would be enough to drain him completely. More than likely, a fight to the death against Jiraiya would either end with Itachi's death or Itachi losing his sight since he wouldn't be able to beat Jiraiya without MS. So yeah, Itachi was telling the truth even if he also had other reasons to avoid a fight Jiraiya. Edit: Also if he was just saying this to keep away from Sasuke, it'd be kinda redundant since they ended up confronting Sasuke anyway.
Even if Itachi is basically a pacifist, that doesn't mean that he can't mobilize and adapt in an unnatural situation, especially if the confrontation is a serious one, he prefers most of the time to finish the fights as quickly as possible, that's why Itachi should never be underestimated. Itachi lived his whole life so that Sasuke could defeat him and become an Uchiha hero as well as a hero of the leaf. That, obviously, didn’t go as planned. However, it did allow Sasuke to grow and begin to start asking the right questions that would eventually lead him to becoming the man he (Itachi) wanted him to be. (Itachi was killed so that Sasuke could grow more powerful both as a character (to us in a real world moral sense) and as a Ninja. Itachi from the get go was extremely talented which more precisly means that Itachi just like Minato was pretty much an unique, authentic and especially unpredictable Shinobi which could exceed or overcome almost any expectations. (at least that's what we were shown in the anime by the creator Masashi Kishimoto himself) In my opinion No One in the series should underestimate such an unpredictable Shinobi like Itachi, even Madara (I won't say that Itachi can beat him, but at least he will be pretty much able to put a decent fight that Madara will also be impressed in my opinion). That is why it is arguable/debatable that he probably could or could not defeat foes like Minato, Obito or Pain/Nagato. Itachi was also a prodigy from birth and he knew all sorts of tricks and he's definitely a troublesome fellow to encounter. In my opinion, they are both very versatile, unique, interesting and especially very unpredictable in their way of fighting style approach. If you make an effort to look or to rewatch at all of Itachi's fights, you might discover that he's pretty much always able to outsmart anyone during a fight or a encounter, because of his unpredictability in his way of fighting style approach. His way of thinking and his calmness, intelligence and battle IQ experience factor it's very authentic and underrated, his true potential remain still unknown, because he wasn't go all out against anyone during the series.🤷🏻♂️☯️ I don't understand how some of you guys even dare or can to underestimate Itachi like that, many of you guys forget that Itachi isn't just any ordinary shinobi either, he is still considered by a very wide range of Naruto connoisseurs to be a very unique and unpredictable character at the same time and no one should underestimate him as some of you guys currently do. ;/ ☯️🤷🏻♂️What you have to remember, is that even in his battle with Sasuke, he has been fighting to lose. Itachi has always attempted to avoid conflict at all costs. He has to maintain his cover as an Akatsuki member, so he has to make viable excuses to avoid battle. When he says that fighting Jiraiya would have serious consequences, we know that he has an innate desire not to fight anyone at all, let alone a hero of the leaf, and he was a spy protecting Konoha from shadows. He could have killed Kakashi with ease. Kakashi even states that Itachi could have killed him, and wondered why he didn't. Knowing this, it is easy to see the pieces that point to a picture of Itachi that is devastatingly powerful in combat. In his confrontation with Asuma and Kurenai when he enters Konoha, we see him send Kurenai flying a large distance with a simple kick. We also see him deflect chidori, and snap Sasuke's arm like a twig with a single hand. He also sends Sasuke flying clear down the hallway with another kick in this fight. He is obviously a powerful, versatile, unpredictable and underrated taijutsu user. We know that he can kill with a glance using Tsukuyomi or Amaterasu, and become nearly invincible with his Susanoo. We see him use exploding clones, (it's his one of his unpredictability in his fighting way approach) powerful genjutsu not linked to his sharingan, ( with a single point of a one of his fingers) and making hand seals at insane speeds. He kicks the shit out of Kakashi and he barely moves. Tobi also tells us himself that Itachi could have killed him if it weren't for carefully guarded secrets. Orochimaru beats Tsunade and Jiraiya without the use of his arms. Granted, Jiraiya was drugged, but it's still the point. Orochimaru couldn't use seals at all. Itachi obliterated Orochimaru effortlessly. Itachi has been a step above from the beginning. In order for him to keep his cover in Akatsuki, he had to avoid conflict without arousing suspicion, and the best way to do that was to present himself as being much less powerful than he actually is. The one thing we have been able to see in detail, is his intelligence and unpredictability in his fighting way approach. Itachi has been shown to be able to plan events years in advance, to account for possible flaws in his plans with powerful contingencies, and to use every possibility to his advantage. Shikamaru plans a few hours in advance, and we label him a tactical genius. If that is the case, what does one even call Itachi? The only real flaws that Itachi possesses is a smaller chakra reserves, and his own morality which keeps him from gaining Eternal Mangekyo. But even the chakra is arguable. The techniques we see him use are enormously powerful, and would therefor have a huge chakra cost. I'm not going to say he is the most powerful character in the anime, but I am going to say he is definitely very very high on that list, and probably higher than most people seem to give him credit for. Lastly but not least, Kishimoto made sure that Itachi was seen as someone special and he did an incredible job in establishing that in the story. 🤷🏻♂️☯️✌️
Dont forget that jiraya took on multiple pain without any knowledge about their ability and almost won if it wasn't for the broken power of resurrection. Even then he figured out their secret and sent a message while dying. Itachi himself is on another level. Only the writers can decide who will win. So debating about it is pointless.
Remember Itachi visited the village when the village was destroyed. He definitely heard of it and came to check on Sasuke. Itachi also wanted to let Kakashi and Jiraya know about Akatsuki's ambitions. He told Kakashi and Jiraya about it indirectly. When kidnapping Naruto, Itachi wasted his time by fighting Sasuke, not running away with Naruto. Do you actually think there was any need for Itachi to fight Sasuke?? He could have put Sasuke under genjutsu and let him see his parents and the clan die 5000 times like Itachi did the first time. Also remeber Jiraya has seal led Amaterasu in the Manga. So basically Itachi and Jiraya are both on the same level. ITACHI and JIRAYA have a 50-50 chance of winning against each other. BOTH ARE LORD AND LEGENDARY SHINOBIS WHO DIED FOR THE LEAF VILLAGE
Itachi did the same thing when Guy pulled up. He KNOWS the hitters in his village and fucking around with them could mean death. He only toyed with Kakashi because Kakashi was going against a natural and one of the most gifted when it cokes to the Sharingan. Pervy Sage go Sage Mode and them mfs are COOKED.
Itachi was telling the truth . Itachi was sick he was just holding out for Sasuke to kill him but if itachi was healthy than he could probably take on jiraya but not at the state he was in .
Jiraiya ALMOST killed both of them while saving Sasuke and Naruto, and kisame was scared for his life, Itachi said himself “if I didn’t have the amataratsu we would have been as good as dead, I have to recharge my powers”
Definitely 😂😂 One rinnegan is Close enough to win.. But jiraya fight 1 vs 6 rinnegan users and almost defeat 2 members.. Kakashi also praised jiraya in the episode of Pain attack leaf village.. He is recommended to 5th hokage and one of the legendary sannin..❤❤❤ Jiraya sensai 😊😊❤❤ He is on a whole other level❤🎉😊😊😊
Two things can be true at once. Itachi could be underselling himself to manipulate Kesume into avoiding a fight to protect Juriya (and Naruto). And Juriya could have also definitively been able to win in a fight vs Itachi and Kesume. Fans like to think in absolute terms, but there are also things like the random chaos of battle to account for and the idea of Naruto dying in the crossfire and the 9-tails getting released that should be factored into the calculus being done here. Personally I don't think Itachi was lying, and truly believed Juriya would most likely win that fight, but also knew it was MUCH more complicated of a situation than a simple power level comparison that fans want to boil it down too.
Itachi and jiraiya was the only two strong enough at the time to protect the village. That’s why he left him alone. He wasn’t going to allow the only two protectors of the village left to kill each other. The 3rd hokage wasn’t on their level anymore and was jus a figure head.
at that time the level of the 3rd hokage was six feet underground
he would never have fought jiraiya. he purposely waited for jiraiya to be around naruto to use that as an excuse for not capturing him. Itachi could easily enter the village whenever he wanted and kidnap Naruto if he was really evil

Itachi was acting 💀. He didn’t want to harm the leaf village and he definitely didn’t want the Akatski to get their hands on Naruto so he used Jiraiya as an excuse to not attack. But in reality Itachi could have shit on Jiraiya. If you look at when Itachi was reanimated he was way stronger than KCM1 Naruto which we know is stronger than Jiraiya, and Itachi had to save both KCM1 Naruto and Bee from Nagato.

Itachi doesn’t get scared. He just calculates the risks and moves accordingly. Only thing that actually scares him is losing his little brother.
I said something similar about how nothing scares Itachi. Real just recognizes real and he was telling the truth. I'd see the fight going down as Kisame dying and Jiraiya allowing Itachi to flee since Jiraiya knows about Itachi

Itachi wasn't afraid he was respectful.
He just respected jiraya
Plus he was a village spy so he don't wanted to kill a strong ninja of village

😂😂😂 Nice understanding
Kisame is not a leaf member. He thought it was foolish for them both to fight the man.
That's not true because he ordered Kisame to kill Kurenai and Asuma so they could kidnap Kakashi to find out what he knew about the Akatsuki.
Yeah, nice head canon but it's not what he said or ever said. He was willing to kill other leaf ninja and had no real desire to protect Naruto, he never interfered in other kidnapping attempts. So yeah, while he probably didn't want to speed up the plan he also wasn't going to stop it either.
Jiraiya was likely a good excuse not to take Naruto right then, but it's also true that it probably would have been to much of a fight for the two of them. Not even saying that together they couldn't have won. Just that they both be on the verge of death at the end of it at best.
He'll, if nothing else Jiraiya probably could have pushed Itachi hard enough that his disease would have taken him out.
“Didn’t want to kill” 😂😂😂😂😂

As he admits and his stats in the stat books, Itachis sickness means he has low stamina, Itachi is being smart
Jiraiya just has too many advantages
Although Itachi even nerfed as an edo tensei, he didn't have that handicap of being sick and he threw hands with ease against Naruto in his Kyubii mode so that could be a different story..
Edo tensei jiraya is better
But thing is when kisame said this, he didn't know he was sick. Itachis sickness was progressive but it was also new. It was caused by his mangekyo but it didn't really become a visible problem till the preparation for the fight with sasuke. Where he actually physically coughed up blood and went blind. Remember the timeskip between the Uchiha massacare it was about 5 years. Which madara told him there was a 25% chance with his medication which we all saw sasuke after his fight with killer bee
@johnathanperez9744jiriyah can beat itachi because itachi doesn’t have a perfected Susano and Susano drains almost all your chakra and jiriyah would only have to go in sage mode in use that forbidden jutsu ti beat itachi
@johnathanperez9744first of all he struggled at first because of how confused he was fighting them but the second he got his is bearings he started basically blitzing all of them before demonic illusion was even ready and those 3 pains have been shown putting in work in the village along side deva and have abilities in there arsenal that can take care of itachi honestly the animal and preta are enough not to mention that when he got sneak attacked and ended up fighting all of them he still help his own long enough to kill one ok let me say it again he was fighting all 6 of the 6 path of pain at the same time including deva WITH ONE ARM and held his own enough to kill one
@johnathanperez9744 second of all it does matter if he’s edo because due to him being edo he has unlimited chakra stamina and regeneration so with him being an edo helps him and that only happen in the anime in the manga itachi was attacking Naruto while Naruto was just blocking and defending he wasn’t keeping up he wasn’t reacting ok Naruto at best threw one or 2 punches at best but that doesn’t scale him anywhere XD
Third of all “ if Itachi pulls out the susano, there’s nothing jiraya can do”…… what about the summonings that have been shown to be powerful and fast enough to fight, tailed beasts, and before you say “oh they can easily be sealed” again those summonings has been shown to fast enough to react to tailed beast in are equipped with their own swords and shield to think that they cannot dodge that sword or block it with their own is ridiculous and then he has the swamp of the underworld, which just re-search it on your own and you can see how itachi doesn’t really have much to do against that like he can’t reflected, because the shield only protects One Direction, and that ability goes everywhere. He can’t just simply jump, because jiraya can just punish him with the Mayham technique to flatten him right back on the swamp, what about art of the region lions mane that he can use to pull him out by his feet?, What about bath of the boiling oil which can affect a part of the susano that isn’t protected and it’s just like the swamp goes in all directions, then there is demonic illusion, frog song, and much more
It's the sage power
When he faught pain he used such jutsu or sealing sword
Thats why he is afraid

Let's not forget Jiraiya is next level frightening. Imagine getting trapped inside of a toad's stomach to be digested by it's acid. Unless you have teleportation Justu or amaterasu like in Itachi's case your a goner.
The way he took pain ..
Jiraya took on pain without any intel and almost cornered him
Itachi destroys pain casually
Legend recognises another legend .
Jiraiya has the advantage with stamina
A big one indeed, edo tensei itachi was on a diff kevel but itachi alive even with susanoo will have a hard time fighting jiraiya with sage mode
Only if itachi would have full susanoo than he can take jiraya .
Fight happened means Jiraiya fold Itachi and go for his research about women😂.
Itachi was genius thats why he avoided the fight
Jirayas toads wouldnt allow him to be under genjustu i just realized but interrupting his chakra🔥
It's not about being afraid, first of all Itachi was in the side of leaf and he respects jiraiya, he tricked kisame and told jiraiya the plans of akatsuki. Itachi didn't wanted to fight jiraiya , and put both himself and jiraiya in danger so he chosed to escape.
The thing about smart and strong ppl is that they already know when & whom to fight. Itachi simply showed his brilliance here.
If itachi was in his prime with susano and if he wasn’t sick he would win for sure

Itachi is a cunning and manipulative strategist who often conceals his intentions and true motivations, which could imply that he may have lied to Kisame or other characters in the series to achieve his goals. And let's not forget that Jiraya struggled against Pain while Itachi defeated Nagato (who was more powerful than Pain).
Itachi defeated nagato .. not pain .. and nagato was in control of reanimation jutsu .. so he was not fully conscious.
And please don't say nagato and pain are same.. i know they are same .. pain is different than nagato . Whole purpose of it to put nagato secret ..
Secondly if jiraiya would have known pain secret .. jiraiya could have defeated him easily.. he was there to gather intel .. he never knew the secrets.. he sacrificed himself for intel..

Itachi defeated a Nagato that was being controlled by Kabuto and was aided by Naruto and Killer Bee.
@@thesymbiotee Agreed, Itachi only beat a puppet version of Nagato and with a LOT of help from some of the most powerful characters in the series. If Itachi had gone against Nagato solo then I think Itachi is going to lose pretty badly. A much more fair fight would be Itachi vs Pain, but I still think that Itachi loses that one since Itachi does actually die due to exhausting his chakra. So does Nagato, but Nagato did way more impressive things leading up to his death.
That was edo tensei tho
Itachi was the best double agent ever. He was always being a shadow hokage working from behind the scenes. He knew that not only would he probably lose that fight cuz jiraya is not to be messed with and he was trying to protect people from the akatsuki so it made sense to play off the fear in kisame and himself in that moment. Plus Itachi also knew that Sasuke and Naruto were close and he wasn’t gonna do that to his brother he had already tortured the kid enough Itachi did what he had to do to protect the village but he couldn’t kill his little brother. The Uchiha clan was planning an uprising and the only person Itachi couldn’t truly kill was his brother so he did the only thing he could think to do in that moment and made his brother hate him for it and made him think he became an evil man to protect him cuz he loved Sasuke deeply and wanted better for him.
Nah Itachi was the one who's was leaking Intel to jiraya they confirm his mission to leak Intel about the Akatsuki jiraya has someone he needs to meet every so often to get said information. Plus tsykuomi is a great way to talk to someone for hours in nano seconds
@@jeyajaya6110 nah I'm just cooking
In hindsight, Itachi was only going after Naruto to see what kind of person he was because he should have heard by now that Naruto and Sasuke had a strong bond.
Itachi just has literal one shot abilities if he catches anyone off guard he wins. And he’s just very smart like 3 steps ahead. Totska blade one shots anything, orochimaru, Nagato
substitution , shadow , clone , mud wall , art of the raging lions , mane needle jizo and then followed up with a needle senbom lots of things honestly now how's he going to perceive the attack ? That's also simple .
Obito States that he knew Sasuke was going to do Amataratsu before he even did it because he can sence the buildup of chakra in his left eye not only does jiraya have sage mode but he also has an attack in his base form , called the tengai perimeter barrier which allows him to sence anyone and anything that enters it and he can use that ability to do exactly what I just said up top
The susano is also simple he can summon his toads which has been shown to be powerful enough and fast enough to fight tailed beast and are equipped with their own sword and shield . Don't say that . " Oh itachi is going to easily seal them " because , as I said , before , those tolls have been shown to be extremely fast and extremely agile to
be extremely fast and extremely agile to fight , tailed beasts , you really think that they cannot avoid a sword slashing at them , or block it with their own sword , and or shield come on and then there is the swamp of the underworld which it's too much to explain just simply look it up and you can see that Hitachi doesn't have much to do against that one attack he can't just simply reflect it , because the shield only protects One Direction . It's not omnidirectional , and the swamp goes everywhere . He can't just simply jump out of it , because jiraya can punish him with the Mayham technique flattening him right back on the swamp leading him to drown in a bottomless pit , then there is the bath of boiling oil , which is said to be as hot as several thousand degrees , and just as omnidirectional as the swamp , and can affect the part of the susano that are not protected a.k.a. his legs , then there is the art of the region lions mane when she came manipulate the same way Garra can manipulate his sand and pull him out by his hair , then there is demonic , illusion , and frog song , need me say more ?
Orochimaru was just testing him and other akatsuki members ; his jutsu's and immortality are on different level

Not only was there only 3/6 paths of pain actually fighting, but 2 of the paths he was fighting were SUPPORT paths, not even known for their 1v1 or offensive capabilities, but known for their passive abilities that don't cause harm or fatigue the opponent.
And 1 of those 3 didn't even use their rinnegan ability (the soul stealing) so technically he was fighting only 2 paths who were also holding back by not using their stronger jutsu so as to not destroy their own village. The SECOND all 6 paths of pain stepped in he got one shot and put on his death bed.

Jiraya can easily beat Itachi bcz he can seal Amaterasu and he can easily break any genjutsu. If u don't know this and telling Itachi is more powerful then u haven't watched Naruto.
Sealing takes way too much time to prepare for how fast amaterasu is. Minato barely got the sealing jutsu off in time to teleport a bijuu bomb which is arguably slower than amaterasu activation. He also wouldn’t be able to escape tsukuyomi, which doesn’t require eye contact either.

How do you figure that when the strongest Sannin was Orochimaru and he was easily beaten twice by Itachi without him breaking a sweat.

@@Solomonster_97 what's your reference for Jiraiya immunity to all genjutsu, besides just saying that into the wind?
Sage mode counters most genjutsu if not all
Itachi and Jiraiya tie for the highest skills stats in the series. Itachi very likely acknowledged that he is a real threat, and absolutely acknowledged he didn't want to rob the leaf village if such valuable assets in Jiraiya and Naruto.
As for which would win....50/50.
Crazy how people dick ride the hell out of this statement.The facts are that Itachi has ZERO desire to fight or kill someone as important as Jiraiya. Itachi EASILY folded a Sannin that arguably is stronger than Jiraiya, not to mention Jiraiya is INCAPABLE of even defeating Orochimaru.. Itachi is a double agent who’s loyalty is STILL towards the leaf village. He has ZERO interest of fighting people he deems Allies even if they don’t see him as such
Fr people are delusional. Itachi was literally a double agent for the leaf. If he killed Jiraya then the village would have suffered a huge loss, which isn’t in Itachi’s interest.
And power wise, they’re not even close. Jiraya would have no answer to Tsukuyomi or the Susanno. Heck I’d argue that he could even be put in danger by some of his other Genjutsu if Jiraya doesn’t realize he’s in one. Granted he does know release and Naruto broke one of them. (Though I don’t think Itachi went all out, especially since it was a 30% clone and I think he probably exercised some restraint towards Naruto.) He just doesn’t have win cons against Itachi. Besides, he has no shot of getting sage mode activated. There is no shot Itachi would just let him do that. Even if he did, Itachi killed Orochimaru’s strongest form with relative ease, so there is no shot sage mode stands a chance.
I like and respect both Itachi and Jiraiya, agreed I doubt Itachi wanted to risk going up against Jiraiya bc deep down Itachi wants to protect the leaf village but imo you can't really use comparisons, Itachi owned Orochimaru, yes and Orochimaru beat Jiraiya, Tsunade and Naruto with help from Kabuto but everyone had a handicap in that episode besides kabuto i think and remember Jiraiya almost defeated pain, he very well could have with more info. You think Orochimaru or Itachi could pull that off? Sorry but I doubt it. This is why anime comparisons are non comparable IMO
@@kenneth9524Itachi was able to fight against Naruto Uzumaki in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, something that Pain could never do or jiraiya
@@SamuelNS789 thanks for another comparison bud 🤦😂
@@SamuelNS789 You aren't wrong though, seems like everyone could beat someone that the other couldn't but bottom line is we truly will never know the outcome of Itachi vs Jiraiya because it never happened
He not afraid but he knows exactly wat would happen...hes telling the truth

Plz th8s is so long I cannot read this😅
Facts
Itachi be like : amaterasu
Jiraiya be like sealing jutsu
Itachi be like : genjutsu
Jiraiya be like : is doesn't work on me kid 😂😂😂😂
Itachi don't give time to seal and what if Itachi suddenly use gen-jutsu it's like what happened to orochimaru
Lol He was a legendary sanin bit still couldn't recognise the black fire amatarasu.. how?
@@maravelxdc Jiraiya is not an ass like Orochimaru
@@nishithshetty8096 If Jiraiya didn't know, how could he have sealed it? He must have known, so he sealed it.
@@Beast_Editz_78 I watched it in eng.. If you see the episode(85) he was surprised how Itachi broke toad stomach and the way he speaks about the black flam he is not aware of it
Itachi knows his limits(despite his auto-immune disease). He also respects the power and skill set of other powerful shinobi.The way itachi and Kisame mention Jaraiya strength is a firm respect of his abilities. Itachi also mentioned before that if he face Jaraiya? Both of them will die....
Just imagine how strong pain really was..
He has much respect for him, and don't want to do unnecessary fights which the outcome isn't benefitted him.
Kishimoto is not ready yet to discover the power of itachi vs jiraiya.. This is first season of Naruto.
I see a lot of comments either saying Itachi didn't want to hurt the Leaf by killing/severly wounding himself and Jiraiya (or likewise wanting to protect his brother from the Akatsuki) or that Itachi truthfully didn't think he could beat Jiraiya. Honestly I'm inclined to believe both explanations. Jiraiya went toe to toe with Pain, who we know is stronger than Itachi, and even though he lost, it still proves Itachi would have his work cut out for him. He also wasn't able to escape without using Amaterasu. Finally, his fight with Sasuke proved an all-out fight against a strong opponent while utilizing the MS would be enough to drain him completely. More than likely, a fight to the death against Jiraiya would either end with Itachi's death or Itachi losing his sight since he wouldn't be able to beat Jiraiya without MS.
So yeah, Itachi was telling the truth even if he also had other reasons to avoid a fight Jiraiya.
Edit: Also if he was just saying this to keep away from Sasuke, it'd be kinda redundant since they ended up confronting Sasuke anyway.
Even if Itachi is basically a pacifist, that doesn't mean that he can't mobilize and adapt in an unnatural situation, especially if the confrontation is a serious one, he prefers most of the time to finish the fights as quickly as possible, that's why Itachi should never be underestimated. Itachi lived his whole life so that Sasuke could defeat him and become an Uchiha hero as well as a hero of the leaf. That, obviously, didn’t go as planned. However, it did allow Sasuke to grow and begin to start asking the right questions that would eventually lead him to becoming the man he (Itachi) wanted him to be. (Itachi was killed so that Sasuke could grow more powerful both as a character (to us in a real world moral sense) and as a Ninja. Itachi from the get go was extremely talented which more precisly means that Itachi just like Minato was pretty much an unique, authentic and especially unpredictable Shinobi which could exceed or overcome almost any expectations. (at least that's what we were shown in the anime by the creator Masashi Kishimoto himself) In my opinion No One in the series should underestimate such an unpredictable Shinobi like Itachi, even Madara (I won't say that Itachi can beat him, but at least he will be pretty much able to put a decent fight that Madara will also be impressed in my opinion). That is why it is arguable/debatable that he probably could or could not defeat foes like Minato, Obito or Pain/Nagato. Itachi was also a prodigy from birth and he knew all sorts of tricks and he's definitely a troublesome fellow to encounter. In my opinion, they are both very versatile, unique, interesting and especially very unpredictable in their way of fighting style approach. If you make an effort to look or to rewatch at all of Itachi's fights, you might discover that he's pretty much always able to outsmart anyone during a fight or a encounter, because of his unpredictability in his way of fighting style approach. His way of thinking and his calmness, intelligence and battle IQ experience factor it's very authentic and underrated, his true potential remain still unknown, because he wasn't go all out against anyone during the series.🤷🏻♂️☯️ I don't understand how some of you guys even dare or can to underestimate Itachi like that, many of you guys forget that Itachi isn't just any ordinary shinobi either, he is still considered by a very wide range of Naruto connoisseurs to be a very unique and unpredictable character at the same time and no one should underestimate him as some of you guys currently do. ;/ ☯️🤷🏻♂️What you have to remember, is that even in his battle with Sasuke, he has been fighting to lose. Itachi has always attempted to avoid conflict at all costs. He has to maintain his cover as an Akatsuki member, so he has to make viable excuses to avoid battle. When he says that fighting Jiraiya would have serious consequences, we know that he has an innate desire not to fight anyone at all, let alone a hero of the leaf, and he was a spy protecting Konoha from shadows. He could have killed Kakashi with ease. Kakashi even states that Itachi could have killed him, and wondered why he didn't. Knowing this, it is easy to see the pieces that point to a picture of Itachi that is devastatingly powerful in combat. In his confrontation with Asuma and Kurenai when he enters Konoha, we see him send Kurenai flying a large distance with a simple kick. We also see him deflect chidori, and snap Sasuke's arm like a twig with a single hand. He also sends Sasuke flying clear down the hallway with another kick in this fight. He is obviously a powerful, versatile, unpredictable and underrated taijutsu user. We know that he can kill with a glance using Tsukuyomi or Amaterasu, and become nearly invincible with his Susanoo. We see him use exploding clones, (it's his one of his unpredictability in his fighting way approach) powerful genjutsu not linked to his sharingan, ( with a single point of a one of his fingers) and making hand seals at insane speeds. He kicks the shit out of Kakashi and he barely moves. Tobi also tells us himself that Itachi could have killed him if it weren't for carefully guarded secrets. Orochimaru beats Tsunade and Jiraiya without the use of his arms. Granted, Jiraiya was drugged, but it's still the point. Orochimaru couldn't use seals at all. Itachi obliterated Orochimaru effortlessly. Itachi has been a step above from the beginning. In order for him to keep his cover in Akatsuki, he had to avoid conflict without arousing suspicion, and the best way to do that was to present himself as being much less powerful than he actually is. The one thing we have been able to see in detail, is his intelligence and unpredictability in his fighting way approach. Itachi has been shown to be able to plan events years in advance, to account for possible flaws in his plans with powerful contingencies, and to use every possibility to his advantage. Shikamaru plans a few hours in advance, and we label him a tactical genius. If that is the case, what does one even call Itachi? The only real flaws that Itachi possesses is a smaller chakra reserves, and his own morality which keeps him from gaining Eternal Mangekyo. But even the chakra is arguable. The techniques we see him use are enormously powerful, and would therefor have a huge chakra cost. I'm not going to say he is the most powerful character in the anime, but I am going to say he is definitely very very high on that list, and probably higher than most people seem to give him credit for. Lastly but not least, Kishimoto made sure that Itachi was seen as someone special and he did an incredible job in establishing that in the story. 🤷🏻♂️☯️✌️
He isnt afraid, it would be just a real pain to fight him
bro started the fourth great ninja war in the comments
Well yeah! He was afraid he would accidentally kill Jaraiya when he was acting he wanted to get nine tails
Itachi is the one who know about reality. Kisame and himself is nothing against Jiraya ❤❤❤
Jiraiya was indeed the shadow hokage of Tsunade
Dont forget that jiraya took on multiple pain without any knowledge about their ability and almost won if it wasn't for the broken power of resurrection. Even then he figured out their secret and sent a message while dying. Itachi himself is on another level. Only the writers can decide who will win. So debating about it is pointless.
Remember Itachi visited the village when the village was destroyed. He definitely heard of it and came to check on Sasuke. Itachi also wanted to let Kakashi and Jiraya know about Akatsuki's ambitions. He told Kakashi and Jiraya about it indirectly. When kidnapping Naruto, Itachi wasted his time by fighting Sasuke, not running away with Naruto. Do you actually think there was any need for Itachi to fight Sasuke?? He could have put Sasuke under genjutsu and let him see his parents and the clan die 5000 times like Itachi did the first time. Also remeber Jiraya has seal led Amaterasu in the Manga. So basically Itachi and Jiraya are both on the same level. ITACHI and JIRAYA have a 50-50 chance of winning against each other. BOTH ARE LORD AND LEGENDARY SHINOBIS WHO DIED FOR THE LEAF VILLAGE
Itachi did the same thing when Guy pulled up. He KNOWS the hitters in his village and fucking around with them could mean death. He only toyed with Kakashi because Kakashi was going against a natural and one of the most gifted when it cokes to the Sharingan. Pervy Sage go Sage Mode and them mfs are COOKED.
Everyone tough tol pervy shows up 🤭 teeheehe
Assumptions can be wrong so just accept what writer want to say 🗿🗿🗿
Itachi was telling the truth . Itachi was sick he was just holding out for Sasuke to kill him but if itachi was healthy than he could probably take on jiraya but not at the state he was in .
Small short can never convey complete intension. There could be hidden reasons behind their words.
At that time only Jiraiya knew sage jutsu
Only the 6 pains. Nagato himself would get beat. But making the 6 paths made him almost unbeatable
Jiraiya ALMOST killed both of them while saving Sasuke and Naruto, and kisame was scared for his life,
Itachi said himself “if I didn’t have the amataratsu we would have been as good as dead, I have to recharge my powers”
Jiraiya was smart even sasuke from future he knows. So itachi doesnt want his undercover known by jiraiya.
Itachi wasn't afraid. He's just not stupid.
Yes he was speaking the truth he respected jirayah and wanted to protect Naruto remember he was a spy in akatsuki
Definitely 😂😂 One rinnegan is Close enough to win.. But jiraya fight 1 vs 6 rinnegan users and almost defeat 2 members.. Kakashi also praised jiraya in the episode of Pain attack leaf village.. He is recommended to 5th hokage and one of the legendary sannin..❤❤❤ Jiraya sensai 😊😊❤❤ He is on a whole other level❤🎉😊😊😊
Jiraya was protecting leaf village thats why itachi did not kill jiraya
Two things can be true at once. Itachi could be underselling himself to manipulate Kesume into avoiding a fight to protect Juriya (and Naruto). And Juriya could have also definitively been able to win in a fight vs Itachi and Kesume.
Fans like to think in absolute terms, but there are also things like the random chaos of battle to account for and the idea of Naruto dying in the crossfire and the 9-tails getting released that should be factored into the calculus being done here.
Personally I don't think Itachi was lying, and truly believed Juriya would most likely win that fight, but also knew it was MUCH more complicated of a situation than a simple power level comparison that fans want to boil it down too.
Itachi respects him, but I never felt he was afraid of him
