Sidd and Kiba I agree and that's exactly what I was thinking. If we go by what the author and DB's say alone as 100% fact then Prime Hiruzen was the strongest Kage ever(even though Sage Mode Hashi wasn't even a thing then). Now about Prime Hiruzen.. he would be above Tobirama, but that's as far as what we get on his abilities could have been and only because a young Hiruzen proudly said he was the strongest of the present group and Tobirama didn't deny it, and instead made him Hokage. So prime Hiruzen would def be above Tobirama and at best tie with base Hashirama but that's it. He has no KKG, no Sage Mode and no tailed beast or injected DNA or anything so that's incredible on it's own.. he has earned his God of Shinobi title.
