10. Kakashi, Chōza and Chōji vs Deva and Asura Path - Kakashi got to show off more of his jutsus which though failed was still nice to see. Kakashi was smart about handling his opponent. The Asura wouldn't fucking stay down! I was expecting Chōji or Chōza to go in their huge form or butterfly form but they were downplayed. Still have to say the battle was decent.

9. Kisame vs Team Guy - We didn't get to see much of Kisame in action when he debuted in Part I but in this battle he really did a number. He showed off his incredible water prowess and ability to hold his own against multiple opponents. I will say that Team Guy didn't fully show what they've got (excluding Guy and maybe Tenten). Still the overall battle was entertaining, had a good amount of action and less talking compared to its parallel fight that happened with Itachi vs Team Kakashi and Chiyo.

8. Sakura and Chiyo vs Sasori - I was extremely thrilled to see how far Sakura has come. There was a little bumps in the fight I didn't like but gosh I was happy about it. Sakura shined here (unlike later where Kishi brings her back to being useless or helpless). Chiyo was pretty damn good too - old and still kicking! - R.I.P

7. Konan vs Tobi - I freaking love Konan. Her ninjutsu is unique and can work wonders. She kept tabs on her opponent to ultimately give him a run for his money. Thought she lost, she definitely earned respect for what skill she displayed.

6. Sasuke vs Deidara - This was not any easy fight for either of them and Deidara showed off more than expected. His attacks gave a new meaning to explosions. Sasuke just barely survived in the end (on bs in my opinion) but yet he didn't walk out the fight perfectly fine. Sasuke as always kept a leveled head and used his style of fighting to counter and strike. This was a great battle to watch.

5. Sasuke vs Itachi - The battle we've been waiting for. A mix of taijutsu, shurikenjutsu, genjutsu, ninjutsu, it all payed off. Itachi revealed his trump card - the Susanoo. Sauke also had his - the Kirin. These strkng characters gave a nice battle.

4. Hidan and Kakuzu vs Team Asuma and Kakashi - The previous fight with Asuma's Niju Shotai team was good but this one topped it far more. Hidan despite what the stats say, really kept Kakashi on his toes. Kakuzu's prowess are full revealed and might I add, awesome! He found a way to extend his lives by taking other hearts in which each contain a elemental nature. His ninjutsu attacks are destructive as much as his physical attacks. Chōji tried and at least actually confronted his foe. Ino well...she's Ino. Shikamaru stayed out of reach, and even so neither Akatsuki members pages him much mind. Kakashi had to go back and forth with these badasses and though he didn't beat eitehr of them, he did really good.

3. Taka vs Killer B - Killer B showed Taka who's boss. Killer B basically wrecked them. His fighting style was beyond imaginable and how fast and skilled he was at it made me a fan of him despite his crappy rapping. Sasuke tried and did good enough and with some help from his team and flashback managed to defeat Killer B. I very much enjoyed this fight. Still thought Suigetsu should've died here, after being hit with a tailed beast mixed with lightning, sorry that should've been it. At least he saved his team-mates!

2. Taka vs Gokage - We finally got to see the leaders of the other great villages. Each showed off cool abilities and Taka hardly stood a chance. It was definitely worth the watch and thumbs up.

1. Jiraiya vs Konan and Pain - The best battle of Shippūden in my opinion. Though Konan had a small role battling Jiraiaya, she ninetheless showed some good power qualityies as she not onky survived a fire attack in paper form but overwhelemed a fire attack with the fury of her paper. Jiraiya had no info on Pain and still fought hard. Showing more of his jutsus and prowess. It was rad and I will miss the pervert. He fought with one arm and still held his own. You gotta give it to him.

P.S - You guys might have noticed that none of these top fights involved Naruto in them, I'm sure you cam guess why.
