whats your point? rinnegan madara was likely stronger than hashirama.how does that relate to hiruzen vs zetsu?

UltimaDude wrote: @Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 I'm pretty sure he was saying that if Hiruzen was stated to be as strong, if not stronger, than the previous Hokages, he wouldn't have struggled against Zetsu

exactly. we dont know if he struggled,they didnt show much. but going by his hype, he should have torn zetsu apart shortly after arriving

lets look at what each hokage would possibly have done in that scenario.

hashirama-creates a kanon/golem/dragon that dwarfs zetsus ,then smashes it to pieces and leisurely picks off zetsu.

tobirama-not too many feats shown ,but going but what we know -tears through large chunks of the kanon with high pressure ,shinju-cutting water jets, then does some similarly cool water style jutsu to OHKO zetsu.maybe a kage-level version of what suigetsu did to him. that or he just FTG's to zetsu and unleashes kill move,perhaps izuna-style ftg blade.

minato- instant kill with one of his numerous ftg-based jutsu. or maybe it drags out further with minato still winning with repeated FTG's and maybe senjutsu(though hes weak at it).or maybe summons some giant toads to temporarily incapacite kanon,comes down to one on one ,minato stomps.

and then we have hiruzen ,who jumps into the fray like hes about to unleash a major smackdown, then goes on the defence and starts killing time for god knows what reason.
