New Gokage > Old Gokage

[LuckyMan]

There seems to be a common misconception on these forums that the new Gokage (excluding Naruto) is the weakest generation ever and that they're some kind of fodder. It's actually quite the contrary.

4th Tsuchikage Kurotsuchi has Lava, Fire, Water, Earth and Yin release jutsu.
5th Raikage Darui has Storm, Water, Lightning, Wind release jutsu.
5th Kazekage Gaara has plethora of sand jutsu plus Earth and Wind release.
6th Mizukage Chojuro has a legendary sword plus Water Release jutsu.

Through the Boruto movie fight, Gaara used one jutsu. Kurotsuchi used one jutsu. Chojuro used one jutsu. Darui used no jutsu!

These guys faced ridoku level opponents and didn't used their full arsenal. Darui used only taijutsu. Lmao. The fact that they can face off against such opponents and pressure them while using the minimal level of their skill is a testament of their ability.

The fact that they:

Tank hits from fused Momoshiki.
Fight on Kinshiki/Sasuke level speed.
Pressured Kaguya-esque level opponents.
Didn't use their jutsu.

Goes to show they are definitely beyond their predecessors in terms of everything and are definitely the strongest shinobi in the world after Nardo and Sauce.

 

[Pyro NB]

Those are some valid points sir

 

[Cursed Prince]

I disagree, the previous kage would've been able to do even better considering their arsenals, specifically the previous raikage's and the tsuchikage's.

If you ignore how stupid that was, sure.

Its sad that folks are trying to compare momoshiki with edo madara when the difference between streng and speed is colossal.

 

[WalksInShadows]

Kurotsuchi, Darui, & Chojuro don't hold a candle to Tsunade, Onoki, the 4th Raikage's abilities. If you were to pit the current kage sans Naruto against Edo Madara, the difference between the 2 groups would've still been just as glaring. The manga's portrayal is the new gospel anyway, and they didn't tank jack in it.

Is this your attempt of trolling?

Madara is to Momo what Kaguya would be to Jubito, they should never be compared

 

[Livenojutsu]

i dont think they are stronger than the previous gokages especially Ay, tsunade and ohnoki.

 

[Icelerate]

Well you are right they've barely showed anything and as a result it is hard to say they are weak based on lack of evidence. After all each individual kage was stated to be a more skilled fighter than Sakura, who ought to be on par with Tsunade.
