And let be honest Naruto after have learned the Rasenshuriken and sasuke after have gained the MS were already stronger than Kakashi. Example in part 1, Zabuza. Kakashi was clearly stronger, and it especially shows later, but in this fight he needed Naruto and Sasuke to "grow" and rescue him.

Hidan. Kakashi should be more than capable of handling Hidan himself.

Kakuzu. If Kakuzu was beaten by Naruto, Kakashi should've been able to take him out. At that point, even though Naruto had one superior Ninjutsu, Kakashi was definitely the more capable Shinobi.

Sasuke. Sasuke just got finished fighting the kage and Danzo and was nearly blind. Kakashi should've been able to end him much quicker, and Obito shouldn't have had time to even show up.
