We still don't know what Prime Hiruzen was capable of, so honestly any point in speculating is useless. he was said to be the strongest Kage of his time (forgetting the strongest Hokage because we know that is not true).

That means he was stronger Than 3rd Raikage, Ohnoki, 3rd Mizukage and 3rd Kazekage (these seem to be the most likely candidates to be the Gokage in Hiruzen's youth) and i really doubt Bee is stronger than 3rd Raikage who was able to beat Gyuki on a 1v1

but again its speculation and kishi wasnt always consistent of Hiruzen or his abilites

He's a complete enigma.
