Gaara got STOMPED by a Susanoo clone. Dont try to make it seem like he stood toe to toe with it. Gaara got speedblitzed by a Pre-Shippuden Sasuke.

What feats has he shown that his speed increased? Itachi has comparable speed to a Sasuke who is believed to be faster than his part 1 counterpart the same counterpart that blitzed Gaara in part 1 so how does Gaara not get blitzed(remember his defensive skill derives from his mothers will independently of his own so how does it become more powerful....the answer is it did not become more powerful over the time skip) thus Itachi blitzes. Gaara doesnt fight by sitting inside his sand bubble. Hes done it one or two times. More often then not hes outside of it floating on his sand. And its not hard to point at someone. Especially when itachi far outclasses gaara in intelligence. Gaara would be fighting a clone while Itachi is behind gaara. And all he would do is point at him and the fights over. Gaara has never been shown to be one to be especially resistant to genjutsu. Let alone of someones on itachis level. Orochimaru is far far ahead of gaara and yet he has little genjutsu resistance at all. Exact same goes for gaara. Gaara has to infuse his chakra into sand to control it, he cant just control sand. You do realize what the sharingan does right? It sees chakra, Gaara or his sand doesnt have near enough of a speed advantage to immobilize itachi in a 1v1 fight without ambushing him. Gaara has never immobilized someone in a 1v1 fight like that. gaara doesnt instantly control everything, his chakra has to be infused into it. Itachi would easily see the sand and move. If gaara could imprison people so easily then he wouldve imprisoned sasuke when they fought as gaara didnt want to kill sasuke. Imprisoning and blocking are 2 completely different things. You guys do realize that the only reason Gaara's sand was able to work on Madara's Susano'o was because the Tsuchikage lightened it and made it easier for it to be placed underneath his feet right? can't itachi materialize into crows, fly up to gaara then susanoo Sword of Totsuka him? Sand is irreverent because Totsuka is not only a spiritual sword but a physical sword that seals people. Of course, not right off the bat. Garra is one the slowest characters in naruto if you can break through his defenses he is mediocre at best. Pre-shippuden Saskue blitzed him fairly easy and IIRC Itachi had no trouble keeping up with Saskue and Kakashi speed and in Shippuden as Edo he was able to ward of attacks from both Killer Bee and Naruto. IIRC the only reason Gaara was able to pull Madara out of his Susanoo was help from the Tsuchikage. Itachi isnt fodder trash. I don't think Gaara will ever stop itachi from closing that distance. Hes never immobilized someone in a 1v1 fight without catching them off guard. And itachi is far too intelligent to be caught off guard by someone like gaara. Itachi not being able to hurt Gaara with Susanoo is false because Madara easily handle garra with his a swing of his sword and Garra was not even able to defend himself. Garra's lone sand is not enough to stop Itachi's Susanoo because when have two examples where Garra's sand cant even damage a skeletal Susanoo or How gaara's sand ws easily brushed off by Madara's imperfect Susanoo. Gaara's best chance of survial is to pray that Itachi runs out of gas and dies because of his illness. Itachi could simply turn into crows, fly up in the air. Reform and point at gaara, and the fight is over. am thinking about Yata Mirror. It has all nature transformations so it can change its characteristics to block any attack, right?
