So what your saying is that kakashi doesn't have a strong will. it seems he as trying pretty hard to me to protect the other jounins. Also naruto being stronger than kabuto makes me laugh. he got underestimated and landed a lucky shot by getting stabbed in the hand and injuring himself with his own jutsu. Another thing kabuto is not on par with any of the sannins. he too was underestimated. But i will say he most definetly is on kakashi's level.

I would be kinda lame if naruto ends up defeating itachi. after all the focus on itachi and sasuke, that would be sort of a waste. and finally naruto can not be immune to itachis mange sharingan(is that the right spelling). He'll just have to figure a way around it. also itachi is not the strongest person out there. i'm sure his sharingan and jutsus have many flawas and weaknesses. all jutsu have, this isn't DBZ. At least i hope i doesn't end up that way. Though the way the manga is desperately dragging, i'm not that sure anymore.
