Man ikrrr. ^ @CombatIQ

"Also, as I said before, his sick variant outlasted hebi sasuke basically."

Even Zetsu made a comment about that during the fight. He wondered about Itachi to, thinking something was off about him. @CombatIQ

"People don't understand what Itachi can do because they think chakra reserves matter the most, when really tactics and a hax arsenal can trump that. I'm not saying he can beat ultra- god tiers, as there is not enough info on the limits of totsuka blade and the yata mirror, But Pein is definitely possible for Itachi to win against, albeit with high difficulty due to stamina issues."

They totally underestimate Itachi fr bruh. @CombatIQ

Itachi is the smartest character in the anime. (If not the smartest, he's totally up there).
