@Namikazenaruto9:

Well let's look at it this way. Sage-enhanced Rasenshuriken is so destructive that its microscopic wind needles completely obliterate 90% of the cells it comes into contact with, at least for shinobis with normal bodies. But this does not work on the Raikage. He first has his Lightning Armour, which effectively blocks a good chunk of those microscopic Wind needles. Those needles that do make it past the Lightning Armour managed to produce only minor scratches in the Raikage's body.

Since you're talking at the microscopic level, I'll try and do the same. The extreme durability of the Raikage's body could perhaps be because.....the Raikage's individual cells have extremely thick cell walls? In real life, animal cells don't have cell walls but plants do. At least that was what I was taught in high school, so feel free to correct me. Maybe the Raikage's cells were somewhat like plants, except that the cell "walls" were orders of magnitude tougher than anything known in the real world.

Or we could throw that ridiculous theory out of the window and assume that the Raikage possessed special chakra that enhanced his cells and somehow the chakra also gave strong protective shields to the individual cells. That sounds more in tune with the Naruto-verse.

Either way, contrary to your claims, the Rasenshuriken's chakra needles failed to do any notable damage to the Raikage's chakra system. Had the damage been done, the Raikage's scars would have been much, much deeper. Yet the manga shows that the Raikage's scars were very shallow. There couldn't have been any damage done to the Raikage's chakra system with such shallow scars.

And as @Rachin123 made it clear, even in Edo mode the Raikage's body didn't show any sign of significant body recovery. I'm talking about how, a damaged Edo body reconstructs itself from its scattered debris. The debris themselves look like pieces of paper. If your theory were correct, there should have been a lot of Edo debris around the Raikage thanks to the huge damage to the chakra network. But there was not. The wounds were too shallow and looked little more than scratches. So no, in real life, the 3rd Raikage would successfully tank KCM Naruto's Rasenshuriken.
