1) Lmao seriously? Excalmation points(!!) and (?!) represent shock and surprise respectively, which are both used to indicate that the character was not expecting an action they are witnessing. ITachi himself was surprised with an exclamation point when he noticed the real kakashi underwater. Itachi was surprised with an exclamation point when might guy came out of nowhere and kicked kisame away.

Kabuto himself was surprised by sasuke's arrow, because he easily dodged it before, yet had exclamation points when he was tagged by it. Idk what to tell you other than to reread the whole manga, exclamation points always show shock. Kakashi had no clue itachi made a clone, otherwise he wouldn't be so shocked. He didn't mention a clone, all he noticed was itachi's shuriken and water technique. kakashi couldn't track itachi's speed in the slightest.

Lmao what? Kabuto wasn't distracted, he saw itachi running toward him and picked up sasuke's sword and stabbed itachi, and yet he couldn't track itachi's clone formation and substitution technique. Sasuke couldn't track it either. Itachi's susano'o was deforming as he started running, proving on pg 12 it's the real itachi. That itachi was standing next to sasuke the whole time before he started running. By pg 13 itachi did his substitution, and sasuke and kabuto didn't notice a thing.

2) Lol it's debunked. Sasuke and orochimaru SHARE THE SAME BODY. Sasuke and those tiny snakes weren't sealed away, only the giant snake and orochimaru because they were both tagged. That proves that just because orochimaru shares the same body with his 8 snakes doesn't mean that simply tagging his snakes will seal him away. Nothing is stopping orochimaru from substituting out just like his tiny snakes did. Itachi waited for orochimaru to appear because orochimaru is distinct, and in order to guarantee orochimaru's "death", itachi must tag his real body directly. Killer bee's transformation into gyuki debunks you, because killer bee can still be detached from full hachibi even though they share the same body. Likewise, we clearly see orochimaru's normal body appearing out of the snake's mouth as a separate entity.

Itachi always lets his opponents talk and stuff and isn't opposed to letting them make the first move, so that is just grasping at straws. Totsuka blade has shown to be one of his opening moves when he is serious.

3) lmao, kakashi is faster than rock lee in every way unless rock lee has gates open. The bones don't have a feat to suggest they can even tag kakashi or guy or asuma or kurenai, which encompasses the jounin level. Itachi simply waited for kakashi to make his move, and kakashi jumped out of the ground, that didn't take several panels lol. Kakashi's jumping speed>rock lee's jumping speed.

And lol no, muki tensei is a technique boosted by nature energy and it has a wide area of effect because it comes from the top and bottom of the cave and uses the available limestone. Itachi prioritized sasuke with a susano'o arm because forming an arm is faster than forming the full nine yards. if itachi wasn't worried about sasuke he could have avoided that technique is my point.

A casual relook at chapter 217 and chapters 549/550 shows the trees are in the same ballpark of size, and itachi had no issue out jumping them all. Even if he can't out jump all the bones in one go, susano'o's orientation can be changed to protect itachi's underside, and he has 4 chakra arms to grab bones and slice bones to create footing for chakra walking up and down the bones. It's really no different from hopping from tree to tree at that point.
