@Thekillman What would figuring out what Kimmimaro does with his bones help her? It's not a secret, he told Rock Lee and Gaara what he was doing while fighting them.

I know, I never said Gaara couldn't beat Kimmimaro. I simply stated it was a misconception that part one Gaara beat Kimmi, and the opposite was about to happen.

The difference between Gaara and Tsunade is that Gaara's sand is far faster and has incredible distance. Gaara was able to catch Kimmimaro, I highly doubt Tsunade would be able to. I'm more than certain he could land death dealing blows to her if not for her rebirth jutsu. It's why in part 2, despite Tsunade and Sakura's immense strength they weren't much of a threat because they are slow. It's like Goku said, what's the point in being so strong if you can't hit anything. I also find it debatable if a punch of Tsunade would deal more damage than Gaara's sand burial that was a Tsunami wide.

If Kimmimaro really wanted he could easily go CS2, easily catch and immobolize her with his spine and deal a deadly blow with his bone flower. If he was blood lusted he'd Braken dance. Both instances would be GG for Tsunade unless she used her summoning and Rebirth jutsu. I also don't think you really understand how Kimmimaro's bones operate. When it attempted to go through Gaara's best defense at the time it broke apart. It didn't backfire and penetrate his arm or an organ, the point is that they exert from his body and Tsunade would literally damage herself each time she hit him (If she managed to.) The best I see Tsunade doing is just tiring him out then getting some heavy punches in which wouldn't be easy by any means since Kimmimaro's stamina is fairly good. It's the only way she'd beat him.
