@Mr.Grave.

Nowhere did I use a plot defense. I used in character feats. Konan clearly showed concern over Nagato using CST and CT. Clearly, even for a prime nagato, these techniques are very chakra taxing, and we have seen that he needs to disable the pains or bring them closer to his real body to use the technique. Clearly, this is a trump card that comes with its drawbacks. I never said it wouldn't go off, I said it wasn't a guarantee. Big difference. Itachi's trump card on the other hand is easier to initiate and only inflicts drawbacks with continued use.

Again, I said theoretically Itachi can use izanagi, never said he will or if it will definitvely come to that.Kishimoto had no trouble having him izanami when the situation called for it, and we didn't know his full arsenal.

Also, what??? You seriously think that if edo itachi was by himself and his first yasaka matagama didn't do the trick, he wouldn't continue to throw more to save himself? Seriously? He was with naruto and bee, so he used all the firepower they could use in a single shot. That's common sense. Again, don't dodge the question. what is the minimum damage required to destroy that core? No one can answer that so good luck. You are acting as if itachi pulled out a calculator and knew precisely how many joules of energy they needed. You think that if their first attacks didn't work, they wouldn't follow up with more until they obliterated it?

Furthermore, I never said his real life version can verifably do it on his own in time, but its possible. And that's assuming that even comes to that. You don't always get the chance to use your trump card in battle if you opponent outmaneuvers you beforehand. Otherwise Deidara nearly soloes the verse just because he has C4 in his arsenal. Once that technique goes off 99 percent of the verse is dead, but characters above him would kill him before he got the chance.
