Serously, there are times I think about all these discussions on Edo-Madara vs Edo Hashi topic being a joke. Do you guys realise that Madara was just toying with Hashi back then and obviously didn't battle with all this power? He didn't use any techniques he got via his Edo-modifications any Hashi, he used only the jutsus he already had during their battle in the Final Valley. It's clear as a day that if Madara wanted to overwhelm Hashi with all power he had at that moment, he'd have done it perfectly through using a) Rinnegan techs b) Hashi's own Wood Release against him. Madara just wanted some kind of "rematch" with Hashi, so he used only the capabilities he had during their previous fight alive. Madara began using Rinnegan tricks (i.e. the receivers) when he realised that it's already time to end this little game and get serious to defeat Juubito and took his place. Hashi just managed to deceive him with the Wood Dragon grip, but it can't be called an actual victory over Madara.
