this means “Madara was scared of Sakura’s strength so he stabbed her to make her stay away”
and this means
“Hinata is pathetic! She couldn’t even touch Pain! What a loser being defeated by the ground again!”
The fact that Pain HAD to use an OP attack to stop Hinata proves Sakura isn’t much of a threat comparatively to Hinata when all Madara had to do to stop Sakura was to simply just stand there and raise an arm.
Correction: Madara stood there, raised an arm, and nonchalantly used his rod to One-Hit Stab Sakura; while Pain had to use an attack to shove Hinata to the ground before he One-Hit Stabbed her with his rod. Clearly, Pain saw Hinata as more of a threat because he had to use an attack on her first to bring her down, while Madara was just like “meh, Imma stab her and it’ll all be over” and it totally was over for her immediately.
And guess whose stabbing caused Naruto to react far worse than the other? That’s right ladies and gents: it was Hinata’s stabbing that caused Naruto to react very badly for the first and only time in his life (instantly went 6-tails only for Hinata). Did he react at all like he was in any pain whatsoever, or even remotely felt anger, when Madara stabbed Sakura? Or when he himself smacked Sakura hard enough that he almost killed her when he was just in his gradually built-up 4-tailed state? The answer to both questions is a big fat canonical NO.
The fact that we’re always so aptly armed with canon facts makes me adore the Hinata and NH fandoms so much 🙂
If we’re being more specific, Pain had to jump back from Hinata’s attacks to avoid her lethal blows and needed to use shinra tensei to stop Hinata immediately when she used the twin lion fists.
i want to remind you all just how powerful pein was.
he was an uzumaki with so much power his people referred to him as a god. we saw what he did when he was enraged by yahiko’s death as a youth. he even killed jirayia with minimal damage taken.
and he does this all while his true body is immobile and entirely in the care of konan. he does this while controlling six extra bodies with nothing more than the power of his eyes.
now, here, he was down to one body. however, this is the body he used to destroy all of konoha with one attack.
for hinata to even get close to touching him is an incredible feat and should not be undermined.
