I'm not taking anything out of context and see that's the point. Naruto and Sasuke aren't powerful COMPARED to her. That's where you're mistaken, and especially not Sakura. The whole point you're also missing is that she shouldn't have even been in such a position to be caught off guard like that by Sakura and should've been swift enough to actually do something about it once she realized. My point still stands that the same thing wouldn't have happened to Hagoromo/Hamura/Madara, etc. So to some extent being skillful does yield different results seeing as though she couldn't react after noticing but being skilled doesn't mean you can't be caught off guard at all. It's poor perception and reaction timing, period. Sakura has no speed feats at all.

I could maybe see if someone used FTG or someone of remarkable speed did it but Sakura? A juubi-less Madara with one eye was able to react to Tobirama trying to FTG him despite being off guard. Same thing when Minato tried to FTG Madara in SM with a Rasengan and Madara wasn't expecting it but managed to counter with ease. Madara being caught offguard by Black Zetsu is pure plot, and even then he wasn't an enemy since Madara thought he was his own will so of course he wouldn't expecting anything but Madara was able to react to FTG offguard, something much faster than BZ's punch so it's still plot and inconsistent.

You are damage controlling, you're trying to justify the god of the verse being taken off guard by Sakura of all people. Pick your poison, Either A) She has bad perception. or B) Poor reaction timing. Either way it still goes against her and makes her look bad.
