No he wasn't.And put right back. If oro turned off their control then it would be over.

I do agree that Oro would have beat Sasuke because Sasuke didn't have experiences fighting with his EMS and have no training with it while Orochimaru could have freed Kabuto right then and there. Oro could have made Suigetsu join him since he shown more fear of Oro than Sasuke and even said Sasuke only beat Oro because he was already weakened. He can get Juugo to join him by saying Sasuke is not Kimimaru's will but Orochimaru is since he only went after Sasuke for Orochimaru to have a body so Juugo would help Oro fulfill Kimimaru's will for Oro to have Sasuke's body.He's just lucky his plot shield is nigh unbreakable. Orochimaru with full power would've taken him alone. But after the entire Edo Hokage resurrection, Orochimaru could've turned the strongest ninja in history against him.
Not only that, Orochimaru could've used that power against the Shinobi Alliance. What if when he resurrected the Hokage, Orochimaru was just like, "What an interesting tale, indeed... Now, I will use these tools to bring the Infinite Tsukuyomi to completion!"
Then he arrives at the battefield in Sasuke's body with Edo Hokage, Juubito, Edo Madara against BM Naruto, Gai, Kakashi, and the Alliance. Obviously a stomp.
To think all of this could have happened just for the sake of a campfire story because he didn't believe Itachi XD
Well this is a Sasuke with no EMS skill, he barely used it in battle while Oro has all of Kabuto info which includes ways to counter and beat Sharingan users. He could have also awakened Kabuto right there in the cave and get Suigetsu and Juugo to do as he says as I pointed out above ^^^. As for the second part, Hashirama wouldn't be helping Sasuke who might choose to destroy the village at that point in time and Orochimaru can easily tell Hashirama that he would allow him and the other Edo Hokages too all go help in the war where Madara is if he takes out Sasuke Uchiha who wants to destroy the village. He killed the 6th Hokage candidate which Oro can throw in thanks to Kabuto's info.Lol if you think Orochimaru is taking EMS Sasuke without edo preparation and a giant starting distance.
Sasuke/Suigetsu/Hashirama/Jugo/Karin would've taken Orochimaru/Tobirama/Minato/Hiruzen with medium difficulty at best.
