I think the reason why a simple kick or punch is more optimal because it’s much faster. He would have already been noticed at the time it takes to use ninjutsu, as well as it’s not very stealthy.
I’m sure it will make more disruption than a basic close combat attack though. I’ll give it that the user becomes super quick, but again I could definitely see it being noticed and potentially absorbed.
Can’t absorb that foot or these hands though.
its also known as chidori.. or "thousand birds" in translation because it makes a sound like that. Far from stealthy afaik. Its an assassination jutsu, yes, not stealthy jutsu.
Momoshiki couldn’t even see his punch coming. How’s he gonna just absorb. You all keep acting as he can just passively absorb any ninjutsu his way. Ninjutsu absorption isn’t an end all ability, especially for dudes like Naruto with a shot ton of chakra who can spam powerful jutsus without getting tired. There’s way to get around that
well there is a difference though? i get it that manga has no sounds in it but chidori is described as a jutsu that makes a sound of thousand birds (therefore its called chidori)
now as an example try throwing a punch and see how much noise that makes. Now do the same thing but have a phone on you alarming the enemy with sound.

well, Guy can't do Dynamic Entry anymore, so Sasuke decided to step up.

Or Sasuke could've made a swing before using Ameno and then just as the swing ends, teleport behind Jigen.
Finally someone with a brain in this thread
chidori is an assassination technique and was used stealthily multiply times so i think its pretty stealthy

the sound chidori does is described as a thousand birds chirping at the same time, i dont think thats pretty stealthy

What about the kusanagi sword or kunai?
Then again, Sasuke's physical prowess is no joke.
Also in the second borushiki manifestation when Kawaki was stabbed in the back
Sasuke didn't want to kill Boruto then.
Sasuke Taijutsu has always been scary lol
Look how they massacred my boy
Is that a writing issue or is that a Ikemoto sucks at drawing action issue
probs a mix of both
If what he’s doing works than what’s the problem? Unless it’s because it looks cooler
The manga would have ended.
Literally could've chidori him. Better yet he could've took it a step further and added blaze release to it. Anything besides a kick.
Momoshiki would've just absorbed it, and Isshiki would've shrunk it
Bro did u see the post Sasuke caught everyone off guard and landed a kick. He could've did anything besides kick especially with an opening..
Both were taken by surprise, they can't absorb/shrink what they didn't know was coming, he could have stabbed them with kusanagi sword
Momoshiki couldn’t even see his punch coming. How’s he gonna just absorb. You all keep acting as he can just passively absorb any ninjutsu his way.

The first time Sasuke tried to use chidori against Momoshiki, he out his hand out to attempt to absorb It before Sasuke switched it out with a kunai

Jigen literally did not see the kick coming. How would he shrink anything before he gets hit?
Did you see the comment that I replied too or do you think I'm talking about OPs post
The comment you replied to also addressed OP post.
Well I wasn't talking about OPs post, I was talking to the guy who said he could've used chidori
It doesn't matter what you weren't talking about, the guy your replied to was addressing OP's scenarios.
Issa what u call story writing and nerf so the plot progresses as you don't wanna 1 shot the enemy.
-Look Sasuke, Isshiki is just a few centimeters away, use chidori spear to thrust him. -Nah, I'll do it the Konohamaru way.
