.. kill the builder before the wall is built U_U (The akatsuki are not ants :|)
Akatsuki kill hashirama before he even enters sage mode ..
It took him less than 5 seconds to enter Sage Mode. Not to mention Base Hashirama can already rape a bunch of them individually and with Madara on his side they aren't killing him before he decides its time for Sage Mode.
Actually im fairly sure kisame's GWD could counter that 1000 hands budha thing .. It is made out of wood . and wood floats if kisame were able to create a large enough dome to carry the .. Thing then he could simply transition it away .. Unless there is proof that hashirama's wood is denser then normal wood .. ?
Not sure if serious? GWD was barely taller then trees. Shinsuusenju towers over Mountains and Kisame isn't creating a dome that towers over Mountains...not a chance.
Madara would be more difficult because PS is easier to activate then hashirama's SM ... But 10 akatsuki still Stall the Susuno long enough for preta path to absorb it Or a large enough CT would ensnare it .. since he could not PS Slash it seeing as he would be distracted with other member of the akatsuki ..
Stall it how? All their attacks are garbage in the face of PS. 1 Sword slash and anyone who can't protect from it would die. CT is easily smashed by Shinsuusenju or blown up the Kyuubi's Bijuu Dama. No one in Akatsuki is strong enough to make Hashirama or Madara focus all of their attention on them.
None of them can even scratch PS or Shinsuusenju.
Deidara's bombs are fodder to them.
Kisame's moves are easily countered or tanked. PS Shockwave fodderizes GSB by the way.
Sasori's moves are fodder to them.
Itachi's moves are fodder to them.
Nagato's CT is the only move that isn't fodder to PS or Shinsuusenju, and that gets nuked by the Kyuubi.
Hidan? Lol.
Kakuzu? Lol.
Konan? Lol.
MS Obito is fodder to these guys, he has ZERO firepower and Kamui isn't enough to take both of them out.
Flower Tree World would take out anyone who can't protect from it or fly away. (Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, Obito) letting them get easily finished off by either of the duo.
1 Sword Slash that destroyed Mountain Ranges would wipe them out during Nagato's 5 second time limit. Shinsuusenju's valley creating attack smashes the remainder.
