So because kimi survived a part 1 gara sand burial that turned gennin to paste, kimi can not be ohko by a susanoo breaking punch? I'm not sure how kimi has durability of this magnitude.
The pressure kimi was in could crush steel... Sakura and tsunade punch can not crush steel obviously.Tsunade only broke a rib-cage version of Susano'o with the help of Raikage / Onoki's attack sending it toward her, adding more momentum than otherwise.
The victims of Gaara's attacks being Genin is irrelevant. The average person has the roughly same durability in Naruto, with the only outliers being Jinchuuriki, Kakuzu (via Domu), Kimimaro, and the Raikages. Sasuke, Kakashi, or Naruto would have been pasted by that attack as well if they were in it, assuming no defensive / offensive measures are taken to prevent it.

So kimi can take a susanoo breaking punch, since he was underground? That's interesting..
We never saw the upper threshold of Kimimaro's durability. We saw him survive mineral enhanced sand burials without difficulty and saw some of his thinnest bones while in base (no CS2) block Samurai chakra flow (the same attack that Mifune used to clash with Chidorigatana).
Except we have seen Tsunade's upper threshold. She chipped off a bit from a ribcage Susano'o with the help of Raikage and Onoki's attack giving her attack momentum (i.e. by sending it forward) as well as any damage the Water Dragon may have caused. The only argument otherwise is "Tsunade didn't punch Susano'o with her hardest punch" which would make no sense as she had no reason to pull her punches.
Part I Sasuke's Chidori busted through a steel water container. Samurai chakra flow was equal to Chidorigatana in cutting power, given Mifune and Sasuke clashed weapons with no clear weapon having superiority. Samurai chakra flow barely dented one of base Kimimaro's thin bones.

The water dragon did not cause any damage of the sort, it's simply water.
@Bold, I guessed she gained momentum, it's not as though that played such a key role in her kick breaking the front part of his ribcage sussano.
Are you saying being hit with a water dragon of that massive scale would cause no damage?
