He knew Madara was planning world domination in the akatsuki, and he has a one shot tech that could eliminate that right away, you do the math. Yeah, no I haven't UltimaDude wrote: Itachi generally doesn't have access to his special crow UltimaDude wrote: The point is that he doesn't use it which makes mentioning it moot. UltimaDude wrote: He never used it prior to being an Edo, so there's no reason for him to use it here when he already has a means to win via the Totsuka Blade. UltimaDude wrote: Why would I need to explain how he'll win using the Totsuka Blade? I just said that it is an already available way for Itachi to win. UltimaDude wrote: Oh, something he never used in combat (crow came out because Naruto looked at Itachi's eyes) is more plausible? Ok, Tengai Shinsei spam then UltimaDude wrote: The absolute irony of your statement is hilarious. Madara literally stomps on Itachi while he deals with Naruto with Wood Release and Rinnegan techniques. UltimaDude wrote: And you do know that Koto is not part of Itachi's usual arsenal and has only been used in a very specual circumstance, right? I'm not sure how you're not getting this. UltimaDude wrote: Said special circumstance is Koto being programmed to activate when the crow (or vessel of the crow) looks at Itachi's eyes after much time since Itachi's death. This hypothetical fight is by no means a special circumstance and involves a hypothetical live Itachi who is not suffering from his illness. While alive, Itachi has never utilized his special crow, which would make him using it here OOC. How are you not getting this? Then, you dare poke fun at me for mentioning something Madara has never done (Tengai Shinsei spam) despite doing the exact same thing for Itachi. Koto is not a factor here, whether you like it or not. UltimaDude wrote: Too bad he has never used it while alive, therfore it's a non-factor here My other posts were direct responses to your other arguments. Dishonest is as dishonest does.

Except you can prove that Itachi would use Tsukuyomi and/or Amaterasu because there's precedent for it. He has use both of those techniques quite a few times over the course of his on-screen confrontations. Your premise is extremely weak. Otherwise, why didn't Itachi use Koto on either Pain or Obito? Also, this is a hypothetical fight where the motive of the combatants is to simply win.
