Is Kakashi the strongest jounin in the leaf??

[Legendary Nin]

This explains quite a bit,I suggest you read it

[SDShamshel]

Kakashi is known as the #1 Technician of the Leaf. This means that in terms of variety and overall ability, Kakashi's one of the best. He's probably not the absolute best though.

[Legendary Nin]

Need I say more about Kakashi's strength.He is not the strongest,or one of them,but as of now,he isn;t bad,but not too great.

Kakashi owned....

By The Way.. I think the best way is to not decide anything yet .. coz the series didnt finish&#33; ..I know that Kakashi is not the strongest..but sure he is one of the strongest ..thats what I have red in many sites..

[8upED]

I really dont know about who is the strongest, but IMO i feel that Gai is far more supperior than Kakashi. I mean he taught Rock 3 forbiden techniques the gates, secondary lotus, and primary lotus. If Gai was able to teach rock these kick azz styles then i would guess he himself has perfected them. Rock opened 5 of 8 gates at a Genin lv and he was hella powerful, imagin if Gai had done the same at a Jounin lv. True Kakashi is Da Bomb, and knows over 1k jutsu but i dont even think he would wanna copy Gai&#39;z techinques.

hehe but hey im just mouthin off here. i could be wrong

[Uzumaki Kakashi]

does anybody have the ability to put the manga scans of all the genins fathers and stuff fighting. like i want to see hiasishi and also kiba&#39;s ftaher and chouji&#39;s fahter&#39;s move. i dont rember which chapter but proably someone remebers.

[fear_my_jutsu]

Kakashi would destroy Gai. he may have stronger taijutsu but after kakashi wayched lee fight he copied that taijutsu and hi and gai haven`t fought each other since then so we don`t no. i do think that gai would still be stronger in taijutsu but i think kakashi would own gai. as for the sennin not being a real &quot;milatary&quot; position i didn`t no that, but also don`t care...........besides as it was said be4 jaiyaria(can`t spell) doesn`t belong to the leaf village. anyway i don`t think we have seen enough of the series like someone said before. it also is determined on what aspect. if shikamaru is just like his father then i`m sure he would be the strongest in strategy stuff.

[Chi Chi]

Didn&#39;t it say in the manga before the death of the third that Kakashi is the closest to becoming the Hokage. So he is definetely one of the smarter/stronger jounins in the Leaf. None of the sennins are counted as they are all missing-nin as is Itachi. Gai and Kakashi are supposed to be equal in strength but with more than 1000 jutsu and the ability to even copy Taijutsu, he is closer to becoming Hokage.

[skyro]

Gai &gt; Kakashi in taijutsu. I think I saw so in the official character book (like Gai had 5 stars and Kakashi had 4 or something). I don&#39;t know who would win though, but I think Gai would win since he specifically trains to fight sharingan users.

Just note though that Kakashi didn&#39;t teach Sasuke Lee&#39;s taijutsu, Sasuke had to copy it first for himself then he just trained using it. You can&#39;t copy Gai/Lee&#39;s taijutsu with just the sharingan he had to train as well (and even then Sasuke wasn&#39;t on Lee&#39;s level as Gai implied hastily learnt taijutsu wasn&#39;t the same).

[whahappaz]

i htink kakashi is pretty smart at thinking in battles

[jing]

We don&#39;t know who is the strongest. It has not been mentioned. BUT in my opinion, I think he is ONE of the strongest... he is afterall 4th hokage&#39;s student. He had to be some sort of genius. He also took the chunnin exam when he was 6 years old.

[Insomniac]

maybe at one point he was, but he said it himself that hes been slipping.
when he encounter Kabuto in the hospital he knew that if a real battle broke out he wouldnt have been strong enough to defeat him alone (if you&#39;re wondering why Kabuto ran then its because if you fight someone in their terrority the other nins of the village will hear it and come to help, just like Itachi and Kisame ran from Gai, Asuma, Kakashi, Kunerai)

not unless haku is a member of the LEAF village

[chronic]

hmm interesting... im trying to get this thread back on da first page of &#39;naruto open discussion&#39; hahah... but i understand that everyone thinks kakashi is one of the strongest, but not the strongest. thnx guys.

[itachi_]

Just want to add that sharingan is a major + in the comp between the strongest jounins. Copy attacks and understand how to counter them is what sharingan is all about so he&#39;s the best jounin in leaf.

[jing]

You can&#39;t say he is.
If he was that good then why didn&#39;t they ask him to be the 5th.
We can&#39;t say he is, because it&#39;s NEVER proven.

You can still be good even though you&#39;re not a hokage... baka&#33;
