You punks ain't goin' nowhere, not after I went all out!
He wanted to kill them all.
He admitted he would have been burned if Sasuke didn't put out that flames and did a kiwimari.
KB: Not bad for a desperation move, not bad at all.
Oh and he was hiding so that the raikage wouldn't find him and akatsuki would capture him, he didn't trick anyone. He was lucky because Sasuke almost fried his ass but stopped, he took advantage.
Also it wasn't implied that he was injured before the fight.
Juugo: Your a lot worse for the wear now, Sasuke.
Without Orochimaru's curse seal,
your body still hasn't recovered from your fight with Itachi.Sasuke: Yeah...
I didn't think I would have to take things so far...
Sasuke was hurt before the fight begun.
Itachi is hardly near Madara's level or he wouldn't call him an unstoppable immortal. Kirabi was stopping to make rhymes in the middle of the fight so i doubt he was going all out in the beginning.
Itachi would have beaten Kriabi with ease, Sasuke due to his handicapped was unfortunate. And Sasuke wasn't going all out in the begining either, he didn't even have his sharigan activated.
and I'd say that Kirabi was much stronger than the pre-SM Naruto that Itachi fought.
Probably. Either way, they had to capture the Hachibi without killing him, which is harder than axtually killing him. Sasuke could beaten the guy with Ammy and killed him. It's that simple. But they had to capture the guy. But failed because of Sasuke's MS powers going haywire.
