I'm just curious; when did Hashirama display the ability to grow wood out of himself? I genuinely don't remember that. Also, I don't remember when Amaterasu "did nothing to Madara" either. You might be thinking about that scenario after he was revived by Obito, but you forgot about how Madara absorbed the Amaterasu with his non-existent Rinnegan. However in THIS scenario, his Rinnegan is ACTUALLY non-existent, meaning he CANNOT use Preta Path, therefore getting vaporized LOOOL.

And sure, Sasuke may not have demonstrated that feat, but that doesn't mean he can't literally shove a sword into an orb. However, my word doesn't mean anything here and although I am 100% sure he can do it, he hasn't shown it meaning he can't use it in this fight. Albeit, I have counters to this wherein Hashirama cannot catch more than 2 with his Wood Human, and maybe five or six with that Hotei technique. Which leaves Hashirama and his 7 hands full while Naruto and Sasuke can still pump out Bijuudama for days (an exaggeration but you get the point).

I forgot to mention Sasuke's Kirin too, and that lightning will destroy earth natures (wood is EARTH AND WATER, both weak to lightning).
