9. Itachi Uchiha Edo Tensei vs Nagato Edo Tensei
When Nagato was under the control of Edo Tensei by Kabuto, he used the Gakido Technique to absorb the Eight-Tails Mode Biju Chakra from Killer Bee, who was punching his stomach. As a result, Nagato’s body became fully energized. Then, Naruto was caught by the tail of Nagato’s Kuchiyose Bunglun, which was in a transparent form, and Nagato used the Ningendo Technique to pull Naruto’s soul.
Next, Naruto attempted to hit Nagato with a Rasengan, but Nagato absorbed the Rasengan using Gakido Technique. Nagato then summoned Gedou Rinne Tensei, preparing to consume Naruto’s soul, while simultaneously using the Shurado Technique, activating his mechanical abilities to choke and restrain Killer Bee, who was trying to rescue Naruto. Consequently, Naruto was on the verge of losing his soul, and Bee’s head was at risk of being shot by a laser.
Unbeknownst to Nagato, Itachi successfully launched an attack from Nagato’s blind spot, striking Nagato’s Rinnegan Kuchiyose Bunglun and Gedou Rinne Tensei with a kunai. This disrupted the linked vision of the Rinnegan, preventing Nagato from anticipating Itachi’s sudden assault. Itachi’s Susanoo managed to sever Nagato’s arm, which was holding Naruto and Bee captive. As a result, Itachi was able to save Naruto and Bee, placing them safely in the protective grip of Susanoo.
Nagato then hurled a Chibaku Tensei sphere into the sky. Chibaku Tensei generated an immense gravitational pull, drawing everything below it toward its center. Consequently, the ground beneath Itachi, Bee, and Naruto was pulled upwards as the main purpose of Chibaku Tensei was to trap enemies within a massive rock sphere.
After hearing Naruto’s story about how he had previously broken free from Chibaku Tensei thanks to Kurama’s overwhelming power, Itachi instructed Naruto and Bee to unleash their strongest long-range techniques together. Although they couldn’t aim precisely at the gravitational core, their combined attacks would naturally hit the target due to the gravitational pull. As a result, the combined attacks of Itachi, Naruto, and Bee successfully destroyed Chibaku Tensei.
Finally, Itachi’s Susanoo unexpectedly pierced Nagato’s body with the Totsuka Blade. Since the Totsuka Blade acts as a sealing weapon, Nagato was immediately sealed within the Genjutsu world. Thus, Itachi succeeded in defeating Nagato.
