Breaking Edo Control was not about power, it was about Madara knowing how to, he knew the hand seals and the moment he was able to use it so he did it. Itachi said already he never wanted to kill Kabuto, only release Edo Tensei and "heal" Kabuto from his hurt and misguided mindset, hence he used Izanami on him. Okay I get the chakra thing, sorry I misunderstood you a common mistake :) As for your comment about the power levels having nothing to do with it, what I said and what you said are both half right. The more powerful the user, Madara said, the bigger the risk someone powerful will figure out how to break free of the jutsu and then the problem of a unkillable ninja with infinite chakra would arise. Itachi according to this statement and even Nagato wouldn't be powerful enough to figure that out, though yes your answer is correct. But as for the fight, Itachi even without his peak powers still has 2 undeniable advantages. Advantage #1 he can't die, he'll just heal from it as he's edo tensei. Advantage #2 he had Sasuke's help. Yes I know, he wanted to "heal" Kabuto and release the edo tensei but the claim that Itachi could kill Kabuto right off the bat in the fight if he wanted to is unprovable either way, that's all I was saying about that.
