Seeing as the Third is dead...Itachi. And even if he hadn't died fighting Oro, he still would have lost.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Sarutobi as he was just before he died would lose to Itachi, although I think it'd be a close call.
Sarutobi in his prime would have bitchslapped Itachi to the next dimension.
We don't even really know know how strong Itachi is. How many battles have we seen him struggle in? He always runs away before he can get seriously harmed. (Smart)

I agree with anphorus. To make the fight fair, make Sarutobi younger.
Oh yes, Itachi is always running away like Sapphire said.
His time is up. Sasuke is up for another famly re-union.
I don't know if Sarutobi could bitchslap Itachi. I don't think Sarutobi could defend against the mangyeku sharingan unless he closed his eyes, which is a disadvantage for him.
Someone as smart as him would figure out how to fight him without looking at his eyes, like Gai did. I mean come on, he was the leader of the village that held the uchiha clan back when it was konohas second most powerful clan, he is bound to know alot about the sharingan and mangekyou sharingan. (I would imagine that the Hokage would have the "clearance" to be allowed to see the uchiha clans records that they kept in their secret meeting place, which told about the mangekyou)Originally posted by: God#2

who says the Uchiha clan knew about that scroll telling how to obtain the mangyeku sharingan? How would Sarutbo know about the scrolls? And Sarutobi would still be at a disadvantage.
1. itachi told sasuke to look there for secret of sharingan
2. sarutobi was the hokage, you dont have secret underground meetings without his permission first
3. ??
LaZie made this...a long time ago.

to know about the mangyeku sharingan is one thing, but to own it and use is another thing. no matter how much the third would know about it, he wouldn't know it to the full extent, because he does not own it. itachi on the other hand would not only know it, but probably be able to use it to the full extent, to the point where it wouldn't be written down in scrolls. at this point for all we know, the eye could've proabably reached a "new level" that we don't know about or anyone else in naruto.

Orochimaru himself admitted that he was no match for Itachi
Orochimaru killed Sarutobi,
Ergo, Itachi would have also killed Sarutobi, and with ease, i might add
Yeah this syllogism pretty much sums it up
DAMN, Double Post
That doesnt sum anything up.. You should take into account how a ninja's weaknesses complement the enemy's strengths, and not only that, but Sarutobi became a Hokage when he was a child. You honestly think Itachi would easily beat the third? That's plain absurd.Originally posted by: splash

I give this to Sarutobi for experience, I think he'd have a way to counter the Mangekyou.

MS is overrated. A quick sand in Itachi 's eye and he is a sitting duck waiting to be shoot. He even cant use it for long.
Foolish Hokage, you lack pubes.......
I definatly agree with you that each ninja has his stregnths/weaknesses, which makes this show interesting. Its not like just: "I HAVE A POWER LEVEL OF 1 MILLION" "OH YEAH, WELL I HAVE A POWER LEVEL OF 2 MILLION!!!HYAAAAAA!!!"Originally posted by: The Heretic Azazel

Really? Sarutobi became Hokage when he was a kid? Never knew that.
No, I doubt he could avoid the MS without closing his eyes.
Well I think Sarutobi would win in his prime, wasn't he like called the professor for knowing all the Konoha jutsu? One of them must have been good to counter MS.
I think Sarutobi would win I mean you don't become the hokage for nothing and Itachi wouldn't stand a chance.
I think a better match for Itachi would be the 4th Hokage. Although dead, I think he would be more of a match since the 4th was known for his speed in both jutsus and overall speed.
Back on topic, Sarutobi in his prime would win but not very easily.
I don't care who I have to fight!
If he rips my arms off, I'll kick him to death!
If he rips my legs off, I'll bite him to death!
If he rips my head off, I'll stare him to death!
And if he gouges out my eyes, I'll curse him from beyond the grave!
Can Itachi even beat the Sannins?
Who knows...but at least one of the Sannin has beat Sarutobi.
I'll concede that in his prime, the 3rd might have had a chance, but I still think Itachi is capable of some Kage ass kickin'.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
