Mr. Grave wrote: So, you're saying Kakashi could have put a Jinchuuriki under genjutsu too if he wanted? Obito was trying to set Kakashi up so he could get rid of Madara's curse tag near his heart. He first started the battle by showing Kakashi visions of him stabbing Obito, subtly planting that idea in him - and it worked - Kakashi did stab him for real later on. He didn't utilize Mokuton, he didn't even use his Rinnegan. He nerfed himself just to get to Kakashi's level. If Obito were that far above Kakashi, I doubt Kakashi would have been able to land such a decisive (albeit Obito-planned) hit while Obito only got Kakashi's side. If Obito were so far above Kakashi, he could have run his weapon right through Kakashi's heart too; after all, he didn't care about that Kakashi at the time, he only wanted the dream one.
