Itachi Uchiha and Madara Uchiha are two of the most powerful characters in the Naruto anime and manga series. Itachi is known for his intelligence and unparalleled prowess in combat, while Madara is revered as one of the strongest shinobi in history. While both of these characters are incredibly powerful, many fans have debated who would win in a battle between them. In this blog post, we will explore 10 reasons why Itachi could potentially defeat Madara.

1) Itachi's intelligence:

 Itachi is known for his incredible intelligence and strategic thinking. He is able to analyze his opponents' weaknesses and develop a plan to exploit them. This ability could be crucial in a battle against Madara, who is known for his brute strength and power.

2) The Sharingan: 

Both Itachi and Madara possess the Sharingan, a powerful kekkei genkai that allows its user to copy and predict their opponent's moves. However, Itachi is known to have more mastery over the Sharingan than Madara. He is able to use it to its full potential, including casting powerful genjutsu.

3) Susanoo:

Itachi's Susanoo is one of the most powerful defensive techniques in the Naruto universe. It can withstand even the most powerful attacks, making it a formidable defense against Madara's offensive abilities.

4) Totsuka Blade: 

The Totsuka Blade is a powerful sword that is wielded by Itachi's Susanoo. It has the ability to seal any opponent it strikes in an eternal dream-like state. If Itachi were able to strike Madara with this blade, he could potentially defeat him.

5) Amaterasu: 

Itachi's Amaterasu is a powerful fire technique that can burn anything it touches. It can even burn through Madara's wood style techniques, making it a potentially lethal weapon in a battle between these two characters.

6) Tsukuyomi: 

Itachi's Tsukuyomi is one of the most powerful genjutsu in the Naruto universe. It can create an illusionary world where time seems to stand still, trapping the opponent in an endless cycle of pain and suffering.

7) Itachi's physical abilities:

While Madara is known for his physical strength, Itachi is also a formidable opponent in close combat. He has incredible speed and agility, making him difficult to hit.

8) Itachi's intelligence gathering skills: 

Itachi is known for his ability to gather intelligence on his opponents. He could potentially use this ability to find a weakness in Madara's armor and exploit it in battle.

9) Itachi's illness: 

Itachi's illness may seem like a disadvantage, but it could actually work in his favor. Itachi knows that he has a limited amount of time to live, which could make him more focused and determined in battle.

10) Itachi's willingness to sacrifice himself: 

Itachi has proven that he is willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good. This could potentially give him an advantage in battle, as he may be willing to take risks that Madara would not.

In conclusion, while Madara is an incredibly powerful opponent, Itachi's intelligence, mastery of the Sharingan, and arsenal of powerful techniques could potentially give him an advantage in a battle between these two characters. However, it is important to remember that both of these characters are incredibly strong, and any battle between them would likely be a close and intense fight. 

SO TELL ME? DOES HE REALLY HAVE A CHANCE AGAINST MADARA?

1. KILLER BEE

One of the best moments of Bee was how he single handedly took care of the taka members. Yep bee is just that character you don't want to look down on, sasuke learnt his lessons after that encounter.

2. HAKU

Some of Haku's skills, such as being able to use Ice Release and even one-handed seals, were such that they put even Kakashi's own to shame. His Mirror of Ice Jutsu allowed him to travel at the speed of light and for all that he deserves more appreciation.

3. DEIDERA

genjutsu wa bakatsuda (of course art is a blast) Deidara was an Akatsuki member and effectively one of the most grounded of the association. With his Forbidden Jutsu and the Kekkei Genkai of Explosion Release, he was unbelievably difficult to take on in fight, as seen when he kept Sasuke honest.

Deidara's tiny bombs were sufficiently able to kill almost anybody without the force of the Sharingan and his most grounded strategy has a ton of fun span of 10 km, which is regularly forgotten by bunches of fans.

4. SARUTOBI HIRUZEN

Hiruzen was the Third Hokage of Konohagakure and furthermore the man hailed as the Professor. His expertise as a ninja was to such an extent that he was known to be a master of each Jutsu in Konoha's presence, obviously, excluding the Kekkei Genkai. Kakashi like don't you think?

Thriving, Hiruzen is known to have been more powerful than the First Hokage, nonetheless, he was never seen at his best, sadly, which is the reason he remains very underestimated.

5. KIMIMARU

An individual from the Kaguya clan, Kimimaro was a seriously savage ninja who was considered by Orochimaru to be simply the ideal vessel to move into until he became ill, that is.

Notwithstanding Sasuke being an immense Uchiha, a healthy Kimimaro was Orochimaru's inclination, which demonstrates how genuinely strong was. In any event, battling continuously against a Nine-Tails upgraded Naruto, trailed by Rock Lee and Gaara wasn't to the point of ending him.

6. ROCK LEE

One of the student of might guy and his favourite because he has a lot in common with the young warrior, he was the first character to have ever overpowered Uchiha Sasuke even with his sharingan only by using his base techniques and giving Gaara a tough time. more to add Lee would be able to use the 8 gate gate of death.

7. BLACK ZETSU

Viewed as powerless by a larger number of people, Black Zetsu was entirely a perilous individual from the Akatsuki. He had the option to battle against the Jonin crew of the Fifth Mizukage, including Chojuro, and get by. Besides, he even conflicted against Naruto in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, showing that he genuinely was strong.

His greatest strength, notwithstanding, was to trap other shinobi and control them as he did with Obito Uchiha and even Madara Uchiha to truly an extent.Considered to be feeble by a larger number of people, Black Zetsu was quite a risky individual from the Akatsuki. He had the option to battle against the Jonin crew of the Fifth Mizukage, including Chojuro, and get by. Besides, he even conflicted against Naruto in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, showing that he really was strong.

8. HATAKE SAKUMO

Kakashi's dad, Sakumo Hatake is said to have been an amazing shinobi from Konohagakure. His abilities had acquired him the moniker of White Fang of the Leaf and he is said to have been more grounded than the Legendary Sannin consolidated.

9. SHINO 

Shino fills in as Naruto's perfect representation of a very much uncovered character who didn't get enough screen time. In the series, Shino fills in as the Konoha 11's occupant bug master. Basically, this authority laid out Shino as a secret activities master, fit for social affair data. He's no sucker either, as his bugs can be utilized unpleasantly also.

Nonetheless, where Shino vacillates is his fairly cliché establishment and his absence of see everything through to completion. All things considered, Shino fills in as one of many "calm masters" among Konoha 11, including Neji and Sasuke. Unfortunately, Shino is very "standard" contrasted with any semblance of the Byakugan and the Sharingan.

As the "brain" of Team Kurenai close by Hinata and Kiba, Shino's gotten sufficient screen time to lay out his strategic ability and virtuoso, particularly with his art. Notwithstanding, the series didn't give Shino sufficient opportunity to grandstand new methods or even significant snapshots of development.

10. IRUKA SENSEI

Iruka was certainly not a solid Shinobi however he was the main person in the series. He was the main individual who saw Potential in Naruto and profoundly focused on him. We've never seen him battling in the series however he definitely can't beat any of the scoundrels.

Somebody however solid as him might have been most certainly over the level of your normal Kage and since he was scarcely found in the series, he remains very underestimated.

There are just so many mysteries surrounding this character "Jiraiya" from the Naruto series, starting from what's his last name which covers his clan, who are his parents? which led to many unexplained proof of Tobirama being Jiraiya's grandfather or Sakumo Hatake is Jiraiya's brother but how true are all these theories? well we will look into it gradually.

Who is Jiraiya?

Jiraiya is one of the strongeset shinobi in the narutoverse with ninja skills and one of the member of the legendary sannin, plus a student of Sarutobi Hiruzen the third hokage.  He is skilled at the transformation jutsu to morph into a toad and learnt the imperfect sage mode, the second best user of the famous rasengan, actually he developed it after observing it done accidentally by Minato, this man travels the planet in search of data to assist out his friends and to expire what he had learned, to his student, Naruto.

Jiraiya, so many times have been chosen to become the hokage but he declined due to his own personal desires which might deprive him from fulfilling his hokage duties, of course he matched up all the requirements but our guy simply said No! Additionally he is ranked among the simplest mentors, not only in Naruto but within the whole anime-verse. All anime fans will agree once we say he deserves recognition for giving this ninja world some very strong and powerful characters, like Naruto, Minato Namikaze, Yahiko, Konan, Partially Kakashi and Nagato.  

Where's jiraiya from

His clan is not mentioned in the series, so anyone can say that jiraiya is indeed "clanless". But honestly we are curios to know where this legend came from, below is the Japanese folklore on Jiraiya...

"    Jiraiya (“Young Thunder”) is the toad-riding character of the Japanese folklore Jiraiya Gōketsu Monogatari(The Tale of the Gallant Jiraiya). The story, first recorded in 1806, was adapted into a mid-19th-century serialized novel (43 installments, 1839-1868) and a kabuki drama, based on the first 10 installments, by Kawatake Mokuami, in 1852. In the 20th-century, the story was adapted in several films, in video games, and in a manga.

Jiraiya is a ninja who uses shapeshifting magic to morph into a gigantic toad. Heir of the Ogata clan, Jiraiya fell in love with Tsunade, a beautiful young maiden who has mastered slug magic. His arch-enemy was his one-time follower Yashagorō, also known as Orochimaru, a master of serpent magic.  " 

unfortunatelythis has nothing to do with the anime, which is all we care about. to wrap it all up, Jiraiya clan remains unknown.

IS TOBIRAMA JIRAIYA'S GRANDFATHER?

There are some features one might posses for them to be regarded as a clan member, it includes the hair color, the eye prowess, kekkei genkai and so on. To judge this fact I'm not going to be making use of those features, we all know that Tobirama never married or at least it wasnt mentioned both in the manga and in the anime so how could he have a grandson? I mean yeah they both have a striking similarities talking about the hair color, the red mark on their faces but this doesn't show any valid proof that Tobirama is Jiraiya's grandfather, it also answers whether Jiraiya is a senju.

IS JIRAIYA SAKUMO'S BROTHER?

Most probably Jiraiya and Kakashi are related. there's a theory which states that Jiraiya is Saukumo’s brother and Kakashi’s uncle. 

It are often clearly seen that they need some obvious similarities right from the white hair to similar messy hairstyles and features. Jiraiya and Kakashi are both ninja warriors and have excelled in their skills and their tactics. it's clear throughout the series that they both have a special bond and Kakashi looks up to Jiraiya. 

Being clansmen they both fought side by side and were highly proficient and versatile with varied ninjitsu. Kakashi was also very keen on Naruto, he helped him train and have become more of a fatherlike figure towards him. Still this theory is not regarded aside from the hair color nothing else shows the connection between Jiraiya and Sakumo.

IS JIRAIYA STILL ALIVE?

We cannot deny the fact that jiraiya had one of the most painful death, the show had our hopes on when the reamination episodes started but sadly jiraiya wasnt there, according to Kabuto...

But the good news is Jiraiya is alive but only as a clone (Kashin kojin) Naruto’s Next Generations, the question which remained unanswered at the moment is "How is it possible?"  but will still be answered as the series progresses, Boruto series is getting better and better and there's so many info will be getting from Kashin Koji.
