Naruto = Sasuke
It is complete and utter speculation that Naruto is above sasuke.
Brute force can't get through susano'o and we've explicitly seen a susano'o (madara's) tank a tbb.
Furthermore, Sasuke's susano'o fights primarily with Amaterasu. You have to fight 7 day fire while dodging high speed attacks and getting through impecable defence. Naruto's only defence is KCM.
A popular misconception is that naruto is OP when infact he has 8 minutes of BM (which takes a LONG time to recover) and 5 minutes of SM(if he ever actually gets time to meditate and go into it). Without these, he only has KCM, and that would be primarily used to keep himself from burning alive from amaterasu. For that matter, Naruto wouldn't be able to hit sasuke without chakra arms because of Enton Defence. Hitting him with anything but jutsu would be limb-suicide.
In conclussion, Naruto isn't above Sasuke and it's only speculation he is. We don't know how long Sasuke can hold Susano'o (especially since he shows no more strain with his EMS) and we don't know if he can evolve to the last stage (PS) with just a little more hate push.
Orochimaru's Edos
Orochimaru has complete control over his Edo's. People say hashi can break free but that is completely false.
Firstly, Orochimaru stated that he gave them
free will. This means that they already have the ability to think whether or not they want to be controlled by ORo. If oro has to use them in a fight; Before awakening them, He'd implant Memory Tags into their necks like what was done before by both him and Kabuto. Hashi cannot break free of ET when he cannot think, and Orochimaru can use him as a mindless zombie
again.
Kabuto Beat Itachi
This is the biggest misconception.
Firstly; Sasuke, Nor itachi wanted to kill the guy and infact never intended to. A simple amaterasu would completely shatter him as he wouldn't be able to hozuki or heal out of it. Furthermore, he'd have to oral rebirth, in which case he can be grabbed like before, and amaterasu'd again. There'd be absolutely no escape for him.
Secondly, The
only times itachi got hurt was when he risked his immortal body to protect sasuke. If not for sasuke, itachi would literally have never gotten hurt. He'd simply use his susano'o on himself, or not jump infront of sasuke. For that matter, Sasuke did about nothing in that fight, yet kabuto could land not a single scratch on him. That is simply pathetic for a guy who is so overrated as being so strong.
Hydrification - It isn't always active and he was shown to be hurt and had to subsequently heal. Also, It isn't even true huzoki hydrification, but a modified one. He hasn't shown the ability to turn himself into a body of water like suigetsu.
White rage - Itachi was
still able to use susano'o to protect sasuke even through this 'OP' jutsu that NB likes to camp on. This already throws this jutsu into the garbage can.
Tayuya's genjutsu - There is nothing stating itachi couldn't break out of the genjutsu on his own. For that matter, It is highly likely that he simply wanted to make sure sasuke would get out, and hence why he
told sasuke to look into his eye - he never asked sasuke for help, or even hinted that sasuke needed to help him break out. Through the progression of the fight, and the way itachi literally blocked sasuke from every single one of kkabuto's jutsu, it goes to say that he simply wanted to make sure sasuke could get out as it would be wreckless to break his immortal body out, but leave his human brother immobile. Him knowing that he was clearly the better genjutsu user of the two solidifies any reason for him doubting whether sasuke could break out. This is solidified by the fact that
even shikamaru broke out of the jutsu with one of the lowest techniques to break out of genjutsu - pain. Therefore, thinking someone of itachi's calibre, who can reverse genjutsu, can't break out of that kind of genjutsu (even when SM enhanced) is simply ridiculous. It took little effort for them to even break each other out. PAralysing genjutsu which doesn't affect any of the senses isn't that powerful.
Any of the other sound 5 jutsu - Blocked/Dodged effortlessly.
Muki tensei - Didn't even scratch sasuke. A dead guy completely defended the jutsu with only his body, therefore debunking it as any sort of OP jutsu.
In conclussion: The need to activate hydrification manually. The need to first use sakon's jutsu before being able to use any of the other sound 4. And the ability of an opponent to still be able to use jutsu during white rage all refute any claims that kabuto is remotely an OP character. For that matter, he has to get into SM for any of these abilities, and he can be long killed before that even happens.

Ahahaha,Madara canceled the unsommoning,what makes you think HASHIRAMA,brother of the creator,can't do the same?Madara stated itself that if you know the seals of Edo Tensei you can undo the unsommoning.And Orochimaru can't bind Hashirama so he can "break loose" whenever he wants.
COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY FALSE.
Madara
Re-Summoned himself
After ET was
Cancelled. The only way hashi can truely break out of Oro's control is to get an outside source to undo ET.
