sure, he could 'get' away, but that doesn't change much. light is still the fastest.

black lightning is also armament. Oda hasn't properly divided the effects of each haki imo.

it was never stated that way. they might have awakened it earlier but never went all out like they did in Punk hazard.

no it isn't. light is the fastest.

that's...literally what he said. he said that Minato drew inspiration from encountering a Jinchuriki during the war.

oh, don't mind me. I didn't read the next couple of paragraphs, my bad.

did you....not read at all? he already went to Mt Myobuku, where he met the safe and talked with him. he is going to ryuchi cave to talk with their safe about chakra and the sage of six paths, NOT sage mode.

maybe onoki, due to his dust release, but A and Mei would not be able to counter Chibaku Tensei. her boil and Lava release might reduce the overall damage, but Ai is a sitting duck, being absolutely Useless against Rannegan.

hell no. the kage's would be absolutely fked. without Nature energy or Senjutsu, countering Pain's abilities is almost impossible. the only people who could even do anything are Jinchurikis, but they could be easily dealed with by Pains ability to interact with Souls.

...no. villages weren't even a thing during Ashura's time, so your logic is nonsense. plus, Naruto wasn't loyal to the village until Kakashi taught him about friends being the most important in his orphaned life. before Joining Kakashi's team, if Someone like Kumo came and approached Naruto and invited him to kumo where he could have friends, he would have accepted it in a heartbeat.
