@BersekerPhantom

You focused too much on my comment. I said he is definitely Sannin level or above. That is optional. It's not like I outright said he was above Sannin level.

Plot is what makes the story go on. Plot armour is what you call when a character should be defeated but for plot purposes, wins or survives. But, for Naruto, we made up plot no jutsu. But, like I said, Itachi has never been a character that used plot no jutsu because he was badass in his own right and everything he got made sense considering his lineage. The only thing plot related is him somehow finding the legendary tools, one of which he would use to seal away Orochimaru for plot convenience. As for the Yata Mirror, he may as well not even had it as he never was seen putting it to use like the databook describes its abilities.

And your version of being above Sannin level is different than mine. You say to be above Sannin level you have to be able to beat all three together, but what me and I'm sure others meant is that in a one on one battle, Itachi could beat them and that is a big feat on itself. But, then again I'm not too sure about Jiraiya, which is why I said Sannin level, but above if we could figure out if he could beat Jiraiya.

Also, Itachi is definitely Kage level. Every Akatsuki member is, with the exception Hidan and Zetsu. Itachi has the brains and power to protect his village, you know unlike Kakashi (without the Sharingan or MS) who kind of lacks fire power.

Edit:

You say you want to discuss his weaknesses, but have not mentioned none. Besides you continually talk about Itachi has plot armor, which couldn't be more false, you literally tried to undermine his abilities.

You don't have to be rude to get your point across.
