hmm well Oro is very good at using seals he could seal the hearts and only worry about the one in the body

Myth

orochimaru is stronger then kakauzu proven already he is way smarter as well orochiamru was the second strongest akatsuki after itachi... nuff said.

Konnaha_yellow_flash

I can agree oro was the strongest after itachi, but we dont even know if kakuzu was ther yet. That was 13 years ago. I might be wrong though.

dafourt_hokage

kazuzu was probably around since the begining since he did state he fought the first and we all know madara who created akatsuki did 2 also he was the one who was in charge of the money of the organization so he probably was in the mix since the beginning.

Myth

the only new members were hidan and deidara when oro left they recruited deidara in his place. plus oro's stats are higher in theory i am sure u can have kakauzu beat orochimaru but in fact kakauzu was a bit weaker.

Konnaha_yellow_flash

If kakuzu was there when oro was, Im sure oro knows about his abilities. Kabuoro gave the leaf some info on akatsuki and kakuzu was probably in it. Yeah, If oro knew about his hearts Im sure he would win.

Sorry for the double post.

Haku vs shikamaru?

Vengeance

Haku vs Shikamaru

Hrrmmm.... interesting match up. I assume you mean post timeskip Shikamaru? If this is the case then I'd have to go with Shikamaru on this one. I doubt Haku would even have the time needed to put up his Ice Mirrors before getting caught by Shikamaru's shadow. If Haku rushes Shikamaru like he did Sasuke the battle will be over very quickly.

haku
if shika gets in that ice mirror prison hes dead
though shika has good abilities, he can attack with his shadow but haku can make ice needles and put shika on defence with those

Haku isn't really that fast for one & as we saw with Sasuke he rushed in first. Haku also needs water in the area to even use most of his jutsu. Rushing Shikamaru would be dumb sense it would be easier for him to trap Haku in his shadow that way.

I actually think shika could win. Even though haku is super fast, shika can use his shadow sowing jutsu to spread out his shadow all over the area catching haku as he moves fromone mirrior to another. After catching haku, shika cant use explosive kunai to breakout, but after that Im drawing a blank? Maybe, walk haku into a trap of explosives or poison gas?

Scarecrow

i can see shikamaru winning this one
but hakus speed is on pair with shika i think at least in doing ninjutsu
haku can only win if he does the needles and then traps shika in a mirror cage
so it depends on the starting distance between them
and of course if there is enough water for the ice
remember that haku is extremely precise with needles

wow, its a good idea, that shika covers the mirrors with his stretched shadow, didnt think about that
but that would tire shika out and then haku wins

If skika can catch haku, which Im confident he can. He can make haku pick up an explosive kunai and blow himself up OR make haku stabb himself.

Scarecrow

imagine haku didnt die and he continued to develop as a ninja, i think he would be uber ninja after the time skip.
so the next pair is time skip haku vs time skip sasuke

haku can do seals with one hand so he became proficient using a weapon (sword or any other one handed weapon, or just throwing needles) and doing ninjutsu at the same time.
he also learned to summon water attacks to set up for his ice (s)kills or he just carries a bottle of water with him. he improved his ice mirror technique.

i think time skip haku would be about stronger than sasuke without ms or even with ms.
