But, who said all Itachi would do is defend against attacks. He has a sword too, and Susanoo itself as a weapon.

Except Itachi was an Edo. His stamina would just replenish.

Like who could kill Itachi before he could activate Susanoo in the very small time frame it would take for it come up? None of the people he faced were fast enough to outpace his activation of Susanoo. Sword has length problem. As an Edo Itachi is pretty much invincible, Than how did he get hit by Kotoamatsukami? What would have happened if Instead Nagato had caught Itachi instead of Naruto in his soul sucking jutsu? By Susanoo Activation, I don't mean time taken to actually activate it but him using it as an trump card. He uses it at last when nothing usually works.
