He very well may be but not to the extent of him beating both of the previous. He may be more rounded but that also doesn't mean he would beat them as individualsPrime Hiruzen is still the strongest hokage according to Kishi. Oro is just dum in battle thats all.
I'm sure he couldn't beat Hashi and Tobirama combined. In his prime however, I do think he could beat either at high difficulty. His fight against Oro showed he has what it takes to counter mokoton and bringer of darkness. I'm positive Kishi wanted Hiruzen to be the strongest hokage. It was stressed over and over again about his old age hendering him during his fight.He very well may be but not to the extent of him beating both of the previous.

But no one accepts this at all.XD
He may, but by strongest i am not sure he meant he could just beat the others.. I mean he has no counter to minato's moves really. I think he may just be a better ninja all together. Like Gai beat KIsame but Kisame is a much better shinobi all together. Ya see?I'm sure he couldn't beat Hashi and Tobirama combined.

If you you didn't read then don't comment.Didn't read. Hiruzen prime still > Hashirama, the statement which said this was not affected by anything which happened in his battle with Oro. All the people who think otherwise are just plain stupid.
If you think i'm wrong, you think the manga is wrong.
