Okay, instead of making lame exclamations that "Shodaime is so beast..." just because it is said by Kishi that he defeated Madara, I'd like to bring upon a theory.
I don't really think he beat Madara single-handedly. Why?
Well, if the 1st was so OP'd, even if his Edo was 10% of him, I still think he will cause much havoc than against an old Sarutobi.
In short, I'd like to bring upon a theory of how he managed to defeat a nearly God-level Madara.
Madara had Kyuubi, Sharingan, Susano'o and even Rinnegan.
Hashirama had his wife, Mokuton and Sage's Body.
While I believe 1st could have bested Kyuubi with his Mokuton and his wife and be better than Madara in Taijutsu, Madara still is better in Genjutus (Sharingan) and Ninjutsus (Rinnegan).
Since Madara seems to know Edo-Tensei and "HIM", I'll put upon a theory.
I think Hashirama was desperate at a point in his fight against Madara. He, thus tried his last hope that was the jutsus his little brother was experimenting on - Edo Tensei.
He summoned a powerful ninja which will be Tobi. Edo Tobi helped or perhaps considerably defeated Madara but since the Edo Tensei was not perfected yet, he escaped from Hashirama's control and went rogue in his way.
Hashirama, unable to reveal that he perhpas left a monster free, chose not to reveal this secret and thus claimed nice and clean that he bested the great Madara.
In this way, it was Hashirama and Tobi who defeated the all-mighty Madara. That's why Madara knows that the only person who could be behind this is HIM - The man who is responsible for his defeat.
Also, this might be why Tobi
- Knows about Madara, his Rinnegan abilities and all his secret.
- Got control of Hashirama's body and why he says that history is not clear when it's said that Hashirama defeated Madara.
I know people who think high of Hashirama won't believe it but try to think of this with a cool head.
