Tsuname's strength?

[010577]

Since we know:

oro is about same strength as 3rd (if it takes them 10 ep. to finish a fight, they can't have much of a discrepancy)

itachi is stronger than oro (oro said so)

jiraiya is stronger than itachi (itachi sort of made it clear but it is still technically an assumption, because I am accounting for the fact Itachi might not b in his best condition, just a guess when kisame told him not to use his sharingan too much).

so we have:

(oro, 3rd) ------> itachi --------> jiraiya

since 4th is dead, I was wondering where you guys think Tsunade is on this comparison list

I guess she is most possibly between itachi and jiraiya, or maybe only itachi level. My reasoning is the counsel old man and woman that asked jiraiya to be hokage had to give it a LONG thought before rooting for tsunade, meaning true strength wise, jiraiya should be stronger.

What do you guys think?

jiraiya is not stronger than itachi, its was a translation error and whatnot, itachi is the strongest character introduced so far, period

Do we Know that for sure?

i'd say we're about to find out

It being a translation error? Pretty much. The group doing the manga and two groups doing the anime don't agree with the sub of "We will definitely die", or whatever.

But that doesn't mean the manga was correct so it is still an assumption.

We havent even seen Jiraiya's full strength yet, neither as Itachis. There is no evidence to back-up any sort of assumption. I'd say Tsunade is the weakest of the three sannins...just a thought

I thought Orchi said that Itachi is stronger than him now... meaning that since he has no use of his arms he would be stronger. We will see who is the strongest out of Itachi and Jiriaya in episode 85.. and from the preview it looked like Kisame and Itachi was running away.

And goes for Tsunade I think she is going to be pretty equal with Orchi and Jiriaya. But I think her ninja style might be completely different. Like Orchi, Jiriaya, Hokages, and Itachi are all strong but in different ways.

wrong. the reason why orochimaru left akatsuki is because itachi joined and orochimaru admits all that and that itachi is stronger couple of episodes ago... therefore we can conclude that orochimaru knew of itachi's strength before he got his arms killed.

aww okay..... I misunderstood what he was saying then..

i think oro is the stronger of the sannins.
think about it, he is young again. while the others are still in their 50s. therefore he probably wins in stamina.

How can she be equal if Oro and Ero are so different? If there is a huge gap betweet Orochimaru's and Jiriaya's skill level, how can she be equal?

[r3n]

no oro and jiraiya were about the same skill level i think. jst because oro was stronger as a kid doesnt mean hes stronger as an adult.

and if the village council ppl agree to tsunade becoming hokage she must be pretty powerful. ie, a lot better ninja than the likes of kakashi and the other jounin. she is 1 of the sannin after all

[Stoopider]

Tsunami is Tazuna's daughter, or Inari's mother.

She got beaten by 2 samurai jackasses. I don't think she's very strong.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

What?! Its Tsunadde not Tsunami, and she was one of the three sannins, she isnt no ordinary ninja.

Sorry if you meant it in a joking manner, its because i couldnt believe what I just read.

[SK]

oro is only as strong as the 3rd was at like 80 years old. lol seriously how old was the 3rd though? anyway i think tsunade is probably a little weaker than jiraiya and oro. she is at that same high level though, since she is a sannin, but females seem to be weak in this show, so ill say she is the weakest of the 3.
EDIT: and i think itachi is stronger than jiraiya and tsunade, but that doesnt mean he could easily beat jiraiya, jiraiya has been around a lot longer and has probably learned how to beat foes stronger than himself.

stoopider is right......cause the topic of this thread IS, afterall, "Tsuname's strength"

[Nine Tailed Demon]

It's

Jiraiya/Tsunade > Itachi > Orochimaru > The 3rd

Oh.. good point... like a self destruct justu or something... not to mention mad summonzors...

But if you've noticed... they all have strong points. Oro wasn't that powerful jutsu wise, but he could create chakra based/controlled weapons like a mo. (the sword, the arm thing, ect.) so he is VERY knowledgeable, but not so much at fighting as he is at discovering different things about chakra and jutsus... even with his arms gone, he is still very usefull and dangerous. if only indirectly.

So, perhaps Tsunade is a master at something else that compliments Oro and Jiraiya. Prolly very good leadership qualities, we know she's responsible... now, judging from all the other girls shown, she's a distance fighter, being as Oro and Ero are usually closer, but they do alot of summoning...

Eh.. its too early to tell. We just know she = teh pwn.

I'm guessing Tsunade will be strong enough to take on S-Class criminals unlike Anko and Kuranai. I'm guessing she's gonna be stronger then Oro and Itachi but weaker then Jiraiya but she'll prob use her womanly ways to get him to do what she want's like Nami and Sanji(One Piece).
