[Manga] Meeting with Sasori
How did Orochimaru think he can defeat Sasori? The poison is way too dangerous. Just one scratch is enough to kill. Kabuto is a medical ninja, of course. But he does not have the opportunity to come up with an anti-dote. That was possible for Sakura because she learned about the poison from Kankuro. Also, Sasori has hundreds of human puppets and his own body is invincible unless he does expose himself like he did against Chiyo and Sakura. Chiyo was the only one who could stand up to Sasori because she was another puppet master. For anyone else, it is impossible to win against him. It was a foolish attempt to try this ambush. Orochimaru and Kabuto are very lucky that Sasori is dead. They would have been killed.

If Chiyo (a one foot in the coffin old senile woman) and Sakura (a pretty damn good ninja timeskip, but still not even Jounin level) could take on and subdue Sasori to the point he practically gives up, its more than evident Orochimaru AND Kabuto would be able to take him on.
Manda may not lke the taste of wood but he will snack on those puppets easily. |

But . . . Sasori can just make a shell of iron sand around him. Then NOTHING can penetrate the shell, not Orochimaru, not Itachi, NOTHING!!!!
Now that we put it this way, all those pro-Sasori arguments are looking kind of stupid. Orochimaru knows what Sasori can do from being on the same team as him. Orochimaru is not the type that would get into fights where he wasn't sure he would win. Hence, Sasori is not the God that many people think he is. |

Hehehehe...Yeah..I remember that discussion... But I agree with you on this part (I still don’t agree that is less resistant than the Gaara Defense ), It never crossed my mind Sasori have a chance against Oro, And I think the fact that Kabuto was there in order to prepare antidote if needed, Remember that Kabuto was a Sasori minion, and knowing how slick Kabuto is, he could have taken a Sample of this Venom. So the poison argument is nullified. The 100 Puppets people say?, Oro can do a Edo Tensei, and we don’t have any idea of how many shinoby he can call at once, or he can just summon his snake, to help him out with this. |

If there is one thing about Orochimaru that we can say easy, is that he never goes into a fight unless he knows he can win without a shadow of a doubt. Of course, he usually let his arrogance gets the better of him anyway.
The mere fact he tagged along with Kabuto for the meeting indicates that in his eyes, he really never saw Sasori as a big threat. I am assuming he stayed hidden because he won't know beforehand if Sasori wasn't bringing backup of his own for a potential ambush (like other Atasuki members). |

In addition, killing Sasori isn't really important to any of his plans. He could have had Kabuto feeding him false information, which would have made Sasori an insignificant threat. The fact that he still decided to fight means that he is supermely confident of not only killing Sasori, but his ability to antagonize the Akatsuki and get away with it.

So the Poison is not that unbeatable trump Card (besides that he needs to sting Oro with it). |

Notice that during this time Sasori was very busy extracting the shukaku. Quote:

He fought Jiraiya and Tsunade, while not knowing Jiraiya was poisoned, so the fact that he really lost that fight makes clear that his assumptions can be very wrong too eh? What if Jiraiya wasn't poisend, etc, etc. Chiyo already admitted that the only person skilled enough to make a poison in that amount of time was Tsunade (and later Sakura). BTW: Sasori was NOT beaten, he let himself be killed. We don't even know if he gave it all he had. Just a funny thing: Sandaime said Oro had enough country to defeat a small village, while an entire country fell to Sasori's puppets. This may not mean much, but in both cases a generalisation was made. Conclusion: We Don't Know |

Even if Sasori have 100 Pupets and a poison that can Kill you, the fact remains that even a Kunai is good enough to do the Job, the problem beggins when you try to do it. |

- Orochimaru didn't really care about his village and as a matter of fact was merely using them as a catalyst to start a war. Even with this uncaring attitude and a few short years of training, it was powerful enough to form alliances to take out the strongest village. - The 3rd wasn't considering Orochimaru himself; only his army. - Sasori's puppet army is deadly as unlike Orochimaru's army, they don't have to fight you, only scratch you. Furthermore, they are all under the control of Sasori and as equally skilled whereas Orochimaru's army has the usual chuunins and such. |

Having in mind that if Oro knew that He was weaker than Sasori, His quote about leaving Akatsuki would have been a little different, and he would’ve had not risk an attack on him. Last edited by Rurik; 2006-01-20 at 14:56. |
