Lol Kishimoto did admit he was inspired by akira toriyama, and both of them specialize in bad writing. Kishimoto made many references to dbz, like choatzu masks in the mask store of the hidden leaf and the 4 tails being called son goku and roshi. That Dbz logic did ruin the series, hashirama got incredibly strong in part 2 with his cells and wood style coveted by everyone. Then it became a battle of avatars- susanoo vs wood human with mountain busting attacks. Hiruzen got Dbzed by the fact he didn't have a heritage with hax powers. But he is still a beast.
