Jiraya

- Had Sage Mode, something that other Sannins never possesed
- Said to be on Itachi's level on multiple occasions when Orochimaru was clearly weaker
- Could have beaten the invincible Pain with infos

He is clearly the strongest sannin

Nicely said :scorps:

Edo tensei is too impractical and need certain conditions to be use in battle(DNA of the summoned person, not always easy to find and living corps). Nonetheless even if it wasn't impractical, i'd still consider Jiraya stronger since i don't count Edo tensei as part of someone's strength

I'm not sure, prepares orochimaru edo tensei, and then saved for use when suits you

Orochimaru is, imo, the strongest Sannin. He always was. However, Sage Mode could really give him trouble. Though, if it's base vs base or both at their best, Orochimaru wins. Imo.

Jiraiya WAS stronger than orochimaru before orochimaru was sealed by itachi. But since orochimaru has kabuto's sage chakra and Hashirama's dna, Current Orochimaru>Jiraiya (SM or not)

Orochimaru was always the strongest sannin. He was a member of the akatsuki a group of powerful kage level ninjas, Jiraiya wasn't in it or invited to be in it. He never dies, everyone who has met him has his essence and consciousness inside of them. Orochimaru had edo tensei and was able to summon some of the most powerful ninja. Orochimaru had extreme durability and tankiness. Orochimaru was one of the smartest ninja in the world, as they say, Knowledge is power except Orochimaru had a lot of both. Orochimaru takes this, low difficulty. All he has to do is summon Hashirama and jiraiya is done for.

That's true, Orochimaru was always the most powerful, without Edo Tensei Jiraiya is stronger, but Orochimaru can finish it easily with Edo Tensei and his tankiness.

I think Orochimaru was always the strongest sanning. I mean he was the one that was known as a genius

And even after jiraiya learned sage mode Orochimaru was the one the third was going to choose to be hokage, if he hadn't gone crazy.

Then when Orochimaru defected Jiraiya failed to stop him, even though he had Sage mode.

Then there's the fact that after Oro defected he kept looking for new jutsus to master while Jiraiya focused on his books.

And last there's when Orochimaru implies that he was always above Jiraiya saying that even without arms the gap was still evident( or something along those lines).


So yea that's my take on this, forgive my Grammer mistakes, im on my phone.

lol about that akatsuki invitation thing ....... do you know why jiraiya took naruto ?? ok in case you are wondering, to protect him from the akatsuki after learning that they were targeting the nine tails jinchuuriki (kakshi's care wasn't enough anymore) and may i remind you that naruto was never captured under jiraiya's watch (why would they invite a good guy ?? are you saying that jiraiya is not kage level ??. i posted once and i do believe that the :
ORIGINAL oro vs jiraiya = same level, jiraiya has the edge SM.
current oro vs jiraiya = oro obviously wins (oro : seeking power at any cost/enhancing himself/working project).
bro you should think before mentioning something like your "akatsuki invitation" thing .......... sigh
