If Hashi was living instead of Naruto..

[EmmasTrueHeart]

Yesh :3 He is incredibly strong

 

[Sherlock.]

I guess with intel.... =D =D

 

[Noni]

he could defeat pain easily man does "god of shinobi" Name not convince you ???

 

[Awesome G]

Only with intel. If he didn't have intel then he might lose, but it would be a tough battle.

 

[freaks99]

Just to be precise:
Naruto didn't really defeat pain, pain surrendered because he admired naruto's attitude.
OT: Hashirama can talk no jutsu pain and will get the same result.

wrong. naruto beat pain... you mean nagato

 

[YellowFang]

W/O Intel... J-man(RIP) almost had him...

Hashirama would've successfully prevented Konoha from destruction with intel on Pain...
But it's sure that he'd have defeated Pain nonetheless, with or w/o intel...

 

[The Madara Uchiha]

Hashirama could defeat pain with and without intel and possibly Nagato with intel.

 

[Jonordo]

well yh but must
