Full Power, Red Haired Nagato.

Full mobility - Ninjutsu 5, Taijutsu 5, Genjutsu 3.5, Intelligence 4.5, Strength 4.5, Speed 5, Stamina 5, Hand Seals 5. Total: 37.5

Limited mobility - Ninjutsu 5, Taijutsu 5, Genjutsu 3.5, Intelligence 4.5, Strength 4.5, Speed 4.5, Stamina 5, Hand Seals 5. Total: 37

His Ninjutsu is most definitely 5th tier, his Taijutsu, as shown against Bee, Naruto, and Jiraiya is 5th tier, his Genjutsu is very low. his intelligence is 5th tier, to be able to beat Jiraiya and Naruto(before 9 tails threw a fit) the way he did showed that clearly. Just go watch each of his battles and you will see why his strength is 4.5th tier minimum because he caught one of sage mode jiraiyas kick easily, his speed should probably be a 5, but with his mobility issue it can't go any higher than 4.5th tier but it is 5th tier if we give him full mobility, as he cleared a massive distance to get to Hanzo in the blink of an eye, and when he shinra tensei'd killer bee a mile away he was then instantly behind him and that was with him still not having full mobility in his legs. His stamina is easily 5th tier considering he killed Jiraiya, walked to konoha and killed Kakashi, then he blew up konoha, then he beat naruto(before kyuubi saved his ass) and then he used Rinne Tensei on a massive scaled and brought back everyone he killed at konoha. The seals he knows and has already shown easily make him 5th tier in hand seals, such as his seal he used against team kakashi and team gai in the beginning of the manga, and the 9 phantom dragons seal, we can't forget the genjutsu seals he placed in ALL of Amegakures brains.

Also, Plot no jutsu is the reason Nagato was stopped by being sealed and the reason he used Rinne Tensei in the first place. Same reason Kimimaro and Itachi died the way they did. When someone like Nagato, Kimimaro, or Itachi is too strong for everyone at the time of that fight, they either become good guys, die of natural causes, or sacrifice themselves all of a sudden. Plot makes it that there is always a reason why the main characters survive, or come back in most cases.

I would say Hagoromo, as the full Ten-Tails Jinchuriki(this is before the 9 beasts were made so Juubi is truly complete) had a stat total of either 39.5 or 40.
