This is what you have stated:

I don't get where you're trying to go with this, but he went for the crow end of story lol, Kabuto uses a level of control on his edo's that usually allows the undermining of their summoner to a extent, they can make poor decisions or even tell their weakness to their opponent (3rd Raikage). Itachi wasn't fully controlled as Nagato was, so like I said he evaded the blows and went for the crow, if not he could've just stayed and perform amaterasu spam on bee.... Bee failed to tag him, speed feat earned, not because a character is retreating means he's achieved god speed if bee was faster he could've easily caught up to a character who's running backwards lmao.

I accept defeat on the sage kabuto bit, the dude was dangling from the ceiling afterall, won't be a proper feat. If you say you weren't talking about Itachi then ok, just, sentence structure-wise you made that point against a point of mine regarding Itachi. Though I would like to add, you brought up the anime as a point, so I should be able to as well.

Dodging and retreating are not the same tho, Madara was dodging until he found a moment to grab Sasuke's sword if I recall. Itachi was retreating from the get go (I'll use the anime as reference, since you brought it in first place), and then didn't go for close combat.

My logic? Lol, my stance is that there is not much positive said about retreating from an attack, and is an extremely low bar for a speed feat. Meaning you'll have to use better instances, clear observed for speed feats. How do you get Madara is slower than Sasuke from that?
