My point is that hashirama ran his era well this is not his era think about this there was only 4 shinobi ever mentioned back then to have had some prowess which were hashirama, Madara, tobirama, izuna, I'm sure hashirama was like a fairytale to these shinobi now because he lived 100 yrs ago and he only had 3 people to compete with, while almost everyone is highly powerful now clearly way more than 4 people everyone now is powerful and the manga has said many shinobi are unbeatable, invincible, won't ever be surpass, hashirama isn't the only person to get praised by others and u guys knw that, the level of competition back then in hashirama's era was scarce he only had 3 people to compete with who he fought over and over and over so of course eventually u are going to knw them like the back of your hand and whoop their ass, hahsirama knws nothing about the rinnegan, he knws nothing about kamui, he hasn't seen a shinobi who hasn't been hit even, he hasn't faced a guy who is a dragon with virtually no weaknesses the only weakness is a genjutsu caused by physical contact which hashirama doesn't possess hashirama rule his era and he can match up with this era but he isn't number one in it
