Well for one thing, Nagato is very far from dumb.

Also he can use all paths simultaneously.

Nagato has so much more power than Itachi; Itachi's battle prowess is more about strategy, not power.

Nagato is a sensor whether there's rain or not, so it wouldn't be thrown out.

Nagato could just Shinra Tensei everything, pushing back everything from Amaterasu to Itachi himself. first off nagato was a fallower until Yahiko was killed and after that he was manipulated by tobi after that. so he is not as smart as you would think. as for pinpointing Kabuto nagato was conected to him via the impure resurrection summons contract, so that was how he would have found him. aslo when there is a massive blast of fire with a persons powering it it would cloak there chakra. the main weakness of Shinra Tensei is its a pushing tech, so all itachi would need to do to avoid it is a head hunter jutsu to hide in the ground if he when that route.

also the itachi we are talking about is not sick and in his prime meaning he is not suffering form medical side effects of the drug he was using to keep himself alive and he has a lot more chakra so his power more near mandara's power at this time.

nagato cant use 2 paths power at once he so if he is blockign Amaterasu he would not be able to change into a different path in time to block a sword thrust that is fallowing right after a fire jutsu that burned threw a fire eating toads stomach. in the end itachi is batman he out thinks pepole in battle not out fights them. stratagy beats raw power.

Amaterasu is more a plasma attach with how hot it is so it has more mass then you would think so absorption is the best counter for it not pushing it. itachi is very fast and sees the world in slow motion when using Sharingan so he can avoid anything that is thrown at him.
