@Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4

Genjutsu is decided by the ability of the user (not necessarily the eyes they possess) such as how when Sasuke had the mangekyo and Danzo stated that Itachi was leagues ahead of Sasuke in terms of prowess (even though they possessed the same 'level' of eye). Pain was caught in genjutsu by Jiraiya, even though he possessed these 'all powerful' eyes and Jiraiya stated he was terrible at genjutsu. The only reason people did not use sharingan genjutsu against Rinnegan users is because they were either no proficient in using genjutsu against them or simply did not need to use it (Itachi, B, Naruto VS Nagato). The 4th Mizukage was a perfect jinchuriki and was caught in a sharingan genjutsu for years.

Naruto trained to avoid Itachi's genjutsu and what happened.....He was caught in Itachi's genjutsu. Kakashi thought he was safe since he had the sharingan and what happened.... he was caught in Itachi's genjutsu. Kabuto thought that there was no possible way to be caught in Itachi's genjutsu and what happened....He was caught in Izanami. People have prepared for Itachi and his abilities and still Itachi has always found a way to beat/stop any foe he faces.

Itachi's reactions are among the sharpest in the series, he was able to form his susanoo while blind (out of chakra, and dying of a terminal illness) before chakra enhanced lightning could strike him. He would be able to keep up with Naruto & Sasuke in terms of their movement and only needs the slightest opportunity in order to finish his foes.
