Episode 83 ****SPOILERS****

[Mut]

it doesn't mean that jiraiya is stronger... i think it's common sense to realize that it is dangerous to fight one of the legendary sannins even if you were someone like itachi. just don't forget that itachi isn't MANY levels above the sannins or anything.

[Death BOO Z]

did any of the manga readers notice the diffrence between Sakura's reaction in the animea and the manga?

Anime: she believes that Naruto saved her, and she goes off to thank him.
Manga: She thinks 'it must have been the chidori' and disregards what Sasuke said completly..

What is the logic behind that?

If Itachi is stronger then Jiraiya, why does he admit he would die.

EDIT: Different translations

[Aeon]

But he did say that in the best case scenerio that him and Kisame would die taking Jiraiya with them.

[Shin_Naruto]

Kisame: Perhaps you can fight him evenly... but I cannot. He's too strong.
Itachi: Yes. If we both fought him, we would both be killed... or in a good case, we might kill him, but we'd die along with him. Even if we had more men, that result would not change.
Kisame: His caretaker is a legendary Sannin. Konoha's Uchiha Clan and the Mist's Seven Shinobi-Gatana seem petty before his name.
Itachi: Yes, but all strong opponants have a weakness.



If he admits him and Kisame would die vs Jiraiya, then you can conclude that if it was just him he would not win.

If an orange is better then 2 apples... then an orange is certainly better then an apple.
