@Itachi

1) Kimimaro puts this fight in a forest of bones with the technique Dance of the Seedling Fern. Just look at that. How does one even dodge it without flying if they reach up to higher than one can jump? It's stated he can conjure fourth up to tens of thousands of bones from the ground.

2) Sure Amaterasu can probably burn away the entirety of the forest. But first Itachi has to somehow react to bones coming from beneath his feet. He somehow has to look down to see it coming. He somehow has to get an idea what's about to transpire. He just doesn't get to look down for no reason because he's Itachi and you guys don't want him to lose. That's not how debates work. These bones also grow faster than Lee was able to move without weights. He watched the bones grow from afar but in an instance later they were already grown and more were growing inches in front of him before he could even attempt to move. If it had not been for the area being covered in Sand and Gaara's ability to allow them both to fly in the sky, they'd be dead. What does Itachi have that's going to allow him to fly in the sky faster than Lee can move? What does he have that's going to allow him to get away from being shredded by the technique if he's even able to detect this extremely fast surprise attack? I seen lesser surprise attacks even the fastest reactors in the Narutoverse got caught by. I see no reason why this wouldn't surprise Itachi and be his downfall.

3) Itachi does not have Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi. Therefore, he cannot change the shape of Amaterasu. So coating his Susanoo, i think is impossible for him since that's Sasuke's other eye's ability and Itachi's is Tsukuyomi. Sasuke has one eye that casts Amaterasu and the other eye that can manipulate the flames of Amaterasu. Those are his Mangekyo Sharingan abilities. Itachi only has the eye to cast Amaterasu, and not the eye that controls the flames.
