As I said, Naruto destroyed the third and fourth of Kakuzu's 5 hearts, even though the fifth was by Kakashi. Madara, meanwhile, died from the extraction of all the Tailed Beasts and the Gedo Statue (which was done by Naruto and Sasuke), not when Black Zetsu stabbed him. As for the kaboom, that's not finalized. Eventually, it goes that she and Black Zetsu are destroyed when they are in the seal.
