If he really was completely invincible as zetsu said, then I think he'll defeat TTJ madara if the hype is true , not to mention it came from zetsu who knows kaguya and madara. Yea no. Black Zetsu was absolutely right though, when he said that Itachi was invincible. I mean, we know Jiraiya was comparable in strength to him, and Nagato was comparable to Jiraiya. So with that sword and shield, sure i get that Black Zetsu thought it gave enough of an edge to have Itachi win.

At that point in time however, Hashirama was dead and his Edo sealed. Madara was dead and the plan to resurrect him far from completion. The Juubi wasn't resurrected.
