Konoha is at peak power right now but its because the writers did everything in their power to make Konoha too strong while weakening the other villages. During the 4th Hokage's time you had the 7 swordsmen of the Mist still in Kiri, Hanzo in Amegakure who could defeat several Konoha jonin AND the Sannin at the same time, Onoki was not as old and many others. The writers found weak excuses to kill everybody that could be a threat to Konoha while giving Konoha op abilities. Suddenly making Hanzo a paranoid, weakened idiot, Killing every member of the 7 swordsmen or making them go rogue and Onoki not passing down Dust Release are some examples. Who has Konoha lost after the 4th's time? Neji? And then they made the stupid peace treaty to make sure the other villages keep getting weaker.
