Meaning that Itachi will lose more chakra using an MS jutsufrom a clone than his regular body. Add that to the fact that he loses chakra making clones, and the fact that he has such low reserves to begin with, it just makes more sense for Itachi himself to use his MS jutsu. Especially against opponents who warrant the use of the MS at all, since Itachi probably doesn't wanna waste chakra against opponents of that calibre.

It's an irrilevant portion of chakra compared to the fact that he'll create an opening for the enemy after using a MS jutsu with his body, while if he uses it with a clone he can continue to attack with the main body

Why are we debating about this? This debate is healthy Nagato vs Orange Mask Obito Yea lol, thing was if clones can withstand the toll of using an ocular justu

Halcyonite wrote: It was whether clones could utilise ocular techniques or not, using Itachi and his Mangekyo as an example. I stipulated that Nagato's clones could use the abilities of the Rinnegan as well, excluding summoning the Gedo Mazo.

Also, just to bring this up if there is still doubt as to whether Nagato can create shadow clones, but Nagato could potentially create different types of clones too. Nagato was said to have mastered, not learned, mastered the 5 nature transformations. I think it would not be unreasonable to believe that mastering a nature transformation would include the ability to create a water clone, or a lightning clone etc, given that creating a basic clone is something you learn in the Academy. People from Iwa could create rock clones, but we don't know if they could create shadow clones, that's a forbidden justu that Tobirama invented, and the other elementals clones works differently, the water clone for example has a limited range and is mind is linked with the original

FlatZone wrote: Nagato has more advanced techs than that, for example he created a technique which creates perfect clones of whoever touches the tags, hell he has created multiple different techs. If he can do that I imagine Shadow Clones and other clone techs are childs play to him. That was zetsu's jutsu
