Raikiri increases the user's running speed. It's kakashi's fastest attack. I think it's obvious because why would kakashi suffer tunnel vision if it's simply his hand moving lol? his hand barely moves relative to the rest of his body while he is charging at his opponent, he holds it out like a spear. but it's his running speed boost with it that makes it particularly deadly. Minato clearly made it clear that the speed boost raikiri gave kakashi gave him severe tunnel vision. meaning if his target was a quick enough to react, kakashi gets countered and dies. kakashi never learned how to make his raikiri cover his whole body the way the raikages do, but if he did, he would have the added durability speed, and mental reactions to use the jutsu effectively. instead though, he had the sharingan for this purpose. hokage kakashi can't use raikiri unless he is just using it in CQC bat for a sharper kunai. if he uses it for running speed he would get countered at the last second by anyone who can react to his raikiri speed blitz.

@Blaze release, sasuke could punish kabuto for his crimes after kabuto helps him take out itachi.

And I was talking about the sharingan's inconsistency with seeing through solid objects or mist.
