So, just how powerful is Gaara anyway? What can he do, and what feats does he have? Even putting her powers aside, Daisy Johnson's one of the most skilled fighters, both H2H and with weapons, on Earth-616- at least on a par with Black Widow. And with her powers- she's the only one who's unaffected by her seismic attacks, so she can basically fight at peak level while her adversary's largely incapacited, throwing them off balance with the equivalent of a localized force 10 earthquake. And of course, that's without breaking out the strongest attack in her arsenal- which she'd probably use immediately, with her morals off against a relatively formidable opponent. Namely, focusing her seismic attack on her opponent's internal organs to pulverise them into oblivion- like that time when she used it to achieve a K/O against Wolverine, defeating him by exploding his heart from the inside. Does Gaara have a superior healing factor to Wolverine? Because if not, then he's going to die. Fast.
Gaara Keeps The Ridiclously Poweful Madara on His Toes.
Keeping a Ridiculously High Powered Ninja Remotely Occupied Is Very Impressive
Helping Force Him Out of Madara's Susanoo. Don't Have a Panic Attack Madara fans, I said "Help". He didn't do this alone & his sand was amped. Even, with all that said, this is still an amazing feat.
Stopped Two Giant Meteorites Summoned By Madara from crushing his team.
Once again, don't flip out. I said the word "helped." It's still an amazing feat.
This is one of his Special Sand Shields
He can Make It Rain Sand:
List Of Some of His Jutsu:
Shinobi Jutsu
Sabaku Kyuu(Desert Coffin) - Gaara uses chakra to engulf an opponent completely in sand, immobilizing them and sometimes suffocating them. Gaara has one hand performing the hand seals, and the other is out extended in front of him, open. He usually follows this jutsu up with the deadly Sabaku Sousou (see below).
Sabaku Sousou(Desert Funeral) - The follow-up to Sabaku Kyuu, this makes the sand around an opponent implode and compact together, crushing their body and resulting in instant death. There is almost no way to escape the technique, especially if immobilized by Sabaku Kyuu. When Gaara has his palm open during Sabaku Kyuu, he closes it sharply to perform Sabaku Sousou, almost as if imitating the contracting motion of the sand. At one point in the manga I noticed he said "Sabaku Kyuu" instead of "Sabaku Sousou" while he was crushing Deidara's arm. o_O Weird. DX
Sabaku Rou(Desert Prison) - A huge mass of sand rushes out to imprison the enemy. I haven't read back to Part I for a while, but Gaara uses this against Deidara in an effort to stop the Akatsuki shinobi's movements. Sabaku Rou is HUGE--it looks almost like the Shukaku's claw, in fact. (That dark dot in the center of that pic is Gaara's enemy, everything else is the Sabaku Rou.)
Suna no Tate(Shield of Sand - The automatic sand shield that acts independant of Gaara's will. Whenever Gaara is danger of harm, it flicks up to guard him from damage. It can withstand nearly any standard attack, whether it be shuriken projectiles, needles, or even explosions. It has been defeated by Lee's high-speed taijutsu, in which the sand shield can't keep up.
Suna no Yoroi(Armor of Sand) - The armor of sand is an extremely thin, but dense layer of sand that lies directly on Gaara's skin, protecting him should the Suna no Tate fail to protect him. However, this requires an immense of chakra to compact the sand together, and it slows the user down as a result of the extra weight. Thus, Gaara only uses it unless he absolutely has to. But the effectiveness of the jutsu is undeniable--it can more often than not render an attack absolutely useless. It's also why Gaara appears 'cracked' when he gets attacked.
Suna Bunshin(Sand Doppelganger) - Gaara's version of the Kage Bunshin, he creates a doppelganger out of sand. He uses this in the fight against Lee, right before Lee lands the final blow of his Lotus technique. He also uses it against Sasuke in their Chuunin Exam match. This is another one of Gaara's many defensive techniques to keep himself unharmed. Interestingly, the sand clone can move just as flexibly as a real human.
Ryuusa Bakuryuu(Quicksand Waterfall) - Gaara manipulates sand so it acts like a massive tidal wave or water fall. He uses this against Lee, sweeping him off his feet and causing him to lose control. Gaara also uses this as a prelude to Sabaku Rou in his fight vs. Deidara. This jutsu uses and somehow procures an immense amount of sand--it literally is a 'sea of sand'. I'm guessing it also uses up a lot of chakra.
Sabaku Taisou(Imperial Desert Funeral) - The counterpart to Ryuusa Bakuryuu, Gaara compacts the huge amount of sand created by the former technique in a style similar to that of Sabaku Sousou. As one might expect, quite a damaging jutsu.
Sabaku Fuyuu(Desert Suspension) - Gaara uses sand to levitate himself in the air. Versus Deidara, he hops onto this flying wave of sand, so he can fight the bird-mounted Deidara. Gaara can also levitate a sphere-shaped shield of sand in the air, as he shows in the same fight. This shield, probably sourced from his automatic sand shield, is extremely quick.
Suna Shigure(Sand Drizzle) - Gaara rains sand down on his opponent from above, and an alternative way to lead up to Sabaku Sousou. The wide range of this jutsu can coat the entire area in sand, which gives Gaara the ability to attack from nearly everywhere. Gaara uses this jutsu to prove Kimimaro wrong when the other smirks that Gaara cannot attack if there is no sand on the ground.
Daisan no Me(Third Eye) - An eye made out of sand. Somehow, the sand condenses to form what looks like a perfectly normal eyeball (as normal as a socket-less eyeball gets, at least). It 'spies' for Gaara when he's enclosed within his sand-sphere defense shield. He also uses it to get answers during the first part of the Chuunin Exams.
This link provides the rest of the feats i may show.
But to sum up. Gaara may not have the power daisy has, but his manipulation of sand is waaaay to fast for daisy. Unless Daisy can react to something faster than explosions.(Which can range from low levels of supersonic speeds of mach 2-3 all the way to hypersonic speeds of Mach 23. Considering the size of the explosions deidara was packing, we can assume that gaara's sand speed is around the level of the latter mentioned speed. So basically this is a battle of whether or not Daisy gets blitzed and crushed to death by gaara. Not really who is the best at manipulating the earth.
