I did say that they weren't at full strength but Hiruzen wasn't at prime either not saying it's an excuse just that you cant measure how great of a Hokage he is in his age especially since most of them weren't even his age. Secondly about a flashback. Really cuz I don't remember SaumonHatajte gettimng one either even he was said even be more powerful than all three sannin. Third Kazekage no flashback. So that statement is irrelevant. And exactly why didn't Orochimaru bring him back at his prime? But the same could go with Chiyo who was brought back at her old age too. And yes Hashirama was the only able to stop him. Mostly because Hiruzen wasn't in his prime and Hashirama knows him so well too so there you go.
