Um nope not even. Naruto's speed differentiates. Its confusing as heck. One minute he's this fast next he's not as fast. And as someone who trained in demolishing boulders and what not with her strength becoming adaptable in 3 years as she doesn't need to put chakra on her fist to do major damage. And just cuz he's older means nothing. We have young girls whose strength is better than Kakashi. I'm sorry his strength could be 3.5 but Sakura's should not be as low. First off is the stats is them at there best at least it should be so chakra enhanced or not it should be at minimum 4. But I'd give her 4.5. Like I said those stats are all messed up.

No, Naruto started out in KCM when he, Sasuke and the Hokages were fighting Obito, go look. And I don't see why he couldn't be. If Naruto could have outclassed Itachi's speed by any useful amount before Itachi gained control, he would have done so. Yet, Itachi never fell behind. And I've yet to see a moment where Naruto's speed has decreased. Like I said, you're forgetting that he's been fighting FASTER enemies and had faster allies than the 4th Raikage, with Obito and Madara for the former and Minato and Tobirama for the latter.

Sakura ONLY demolishes boulders and such by using the Chakra Enhanced Strength technique. Again, Sakura's natural strength clearly isn't going to be greater than her older, more experienced teacher's unless she'd done training specifically for that; but she didn't. She's not Tsunade, who also has monstrous natural strength.
