The logic is one thing, I’m just saying it’s not an ass pull since we’ve known for a fact that clones Kabuto makes have the capacity to replicate the jutsus of the originals for a while now, hence not an asspullSo a genetic clone that has zero consciousness whatsoever is able to do jutsu that the original Itachi had to train and learn to do instead
Yeah that’s worse. At least with Kabuto and Orochimaru we know that Orochi has been studying the handsigns and memorizing jutsu as his ultimate goal.
A literal brain-dead clone being better at doing a jutsu than the real person who had to work hard to learn it is worse lol.
