Why do people keep making these threads.
Hiruzen in his prime was already stated to be the stronger of the 2. Kishimoto wouldnt have implied it if it wasn't accurate or if Hiruzen wasnt powerful in his prime. Also, notice how it was stated that in his prime he was stronger than hashirama, not in his current state. For those who think hiruzen in his prime is fanfic and doesnt exist, once again your wrong. Hiruzen in his prime was shown multiple times in the manga, he was just never shown in battle in his prime [
In terms of Prime Hiruzen vs Hashirama, If you go by the widely known information given to us by Danzo, Orochimaru, Kabuto, Iruka, and Hiruzen himself, it is widely known by the entire village than Hiruzen was known as the Proffesor because he was unparrallel in the utilization in jutus. He was the best of the best, which was confirmed recently when it was shown that hiruzen was the only ninja in the entire manga without doujutsu to be able to
With this being said, its fairly easy to see how hiruzen in his youth could have defeated and been more powerful then hashirama. Hiruzen with sage mode already seems to surpass hashirama with his large arsenal of techniques of different elements, and by adding shadow clones to the mix who all would also have shadow clones of enma, it difficult to even imagine how hiruzen could lose. Hiruzen already has displayed the mokuton is nothing in the presence of enma [
So with that, im just going to say that Hiruzen in his youth could most likely beat Hashirama with Mid difficulty, with the information given to use about his skills in his prime.

. He, in his prime was able to master and use all jutsu in the village (excluding Doujutsu releated abilities), which was demonstrated when he mastered complicated moves such as the Shadow clone technique and Death Demon Seal (after only seeing it once). When applying this widely known knowledge about Hiruzen to his younger self, that means he was able to utilize techniques such as sage mode, Shunshin, 8 gates, and many other techniques.With this being said, its fairly easy to see how hiruzen in his youth could have defeated and been more powerful then hashirama.
