Itachi is different than any other Uchiha ever. His mind, intelligence and wisdom are ridiculous even at age 7. No stamina issue?? All Genjutsu and Mangekyo techs no longer have limited usage. His battle style is like Shikamaru's when it comes to planning and intelligence. Itachi is always multiple steps ahead... Kabuto never stood a chance in hell and neither did Kakashi, Asuma and Kurenai in part 1(he was deathly sick then too). Honestly I would say Itachi is the worst match-up for tons of people.. even Minato.. BUT they are both Edo and the only way to win is with Yin/Yang release, or with Sealing techs.. they each have Sealing techs. Itachi and Minato both already know what they need to do to beat Edo's and this would surely be an epic battle like never seen before with none of that "Oh my creature/blast/tech is bigger and cooler than yours" dragonball type ish for the most part. *cough cough madara-hashirama-naruto-sasuke cough cough* THIS would be an epic battle by two true shinobi. I would love to see it.

BTW.. Izanami would only last like 5 seconds top on people like Minato.. he knows who and what he is and what he wants to live for while Kabuto didn't. It would serve as a distraction at best in order to use Sword of Totsuka.. therefor Itachi wins but loses an eye. Something he wouldn't need to do until there were no other options left.
