How strong was he? When he was in Akatsuki we know that he was weaker than Itachi, most definitely Pain as well. But what about Sasori, Hidan and the others? Discuss

Umm.. After the Third Hokage fight, he was pretty weakened becuase the lost if his arms (therefore no more Jutsu) so who knows.

He was a Weakling, he defied the teachings of his lord Rikuzen and did not deserve to exist.

He is overrated, people tend to take everything Kabuto perfected and make it Oro. He's weak

He only lost to Itachi easily because of his Sharingan which was a major advantage. Dragon Sage Mode Kabuto is stronger than Itachi though and was able to do major damage to him. But he lost because Sasuke was helping Itachi.

So...

Orochimaru>Itachi
Orochiimaru>Jiraiya
DSM Kabuto>Orochimaru
Any version of Madara>Orochimaru
Pain>Orochimaru
Orochimaru>Kakashi
Orochimaru>Hebi Sasuke

I think he was stronger than Jirayai and Tsunade. Slug > Toad > Snake according Japanese mythology.

Then how is he stronger than Tsunade, Orochimaru has never thought that he could beat Tsunade. Even when she was cut in half, he said he's never imaging seeing her in this bad condition, what can Orochimaru do to Tsuande? nothing.

it's not about how weak orochimaru was, it's about how strong itachi really is :lol

tsunade said if orochimaru joined the good side earlier, he and jiraiya could've taken down pain.

Totsuka actually has to hit it's target to work bruh. It's not a 360 degree omnipotent attack. And Orochimaru is a sereptitious, cunning individual. There is no way he's going to get hit by a physical attack unless he's weakened or he lets you. Ex. His fight against 4 Tails

And they might've held back but they still would've lost without genjutsu ;)
