Assuming all characters were placed in bodies that are completely the same, they all had equal speed, strength, amount of chakra and stamina, which character would be the strongest? They don't have any Jutsu and they can't learn any. The same goes for muscle memory, chakra control and other abilities that rely on body memorizing techniques and training by repeating some moves, they don't keep it.

Assume the only thing they would have left is themselves, but in a different body.

They all start alone equally far from each other. Their goal is to survive and kill as many other Shinobi. They don't have any goals for revenge against any person. Since they are in bodies that are the same, they can't recognize each other.

The area is a huge forest.

In my opinion, the list of strongest Shinobi in no order would be

Tobirama
Madara
Minato
Obito
Itachi
Naruto
Sasuke
Hashirama

Which Shinobi would do the best in your opinion?

@bold This completely makes everything void. All will be the same.

Terminator 3 disagrees with this

the girl and Arnold had different powers. go re-watch the movie.

But they are not exactly the same. Some characters will still be arrogant, some will be loud, some will kill quietly from behind, some will attack directly, some will hide,...

body memorizing tech. repeated moves are fighting styles (which includes surprise attack, directly) -you said they dont keep it!

No, it does not. If you wish, you could say that they are placed in bodies in which Jutsu can't be used.

I did not say everything is the same. Suppose two equal fighters fought. The one that knew vulnerable parts of body, would be more likely to win.

Even though half the entire movie was about how there was no way in heck that a T-800 (Arnold) could ever take on or beat a TX (the girl) legit :lmao:

Then that depends on knowledge and opportunity. You can't really put one over the other based on this criteria.

The fact that one of them has a vulnerable spot wouldn't make them equal but they are in the same bodies in your scenario so why would you post this reply?

Well, yes.

For example, two Shinobi fight each other. One is Karin, the other is Kabuto. They are both in equal bodies. But, Kabuto would be smart enough to start hiding if he got injured. With his knowledge about body, he could maybe heal himself. Obviously, he would not be able to perform advanced surgeries. But his theoretical knowledge of how to treat wounds would be better than Karin's. Kabuto would also know which parts of body are more vulnerable. Kabuto would also probably have better knowledge of how to make simple traps. Which means he would be more likely to survive than Karin.

I get it. But that's a very unusual way of comparing. And it's also difficult to decide the victor because the circumstances could lead either way.

Yeah, but when 2 robots with different powers fight, it's logically that one will win, but 2 tobots with same power , skills, speed, is hard to find a winner. that's my point.

Your thrust for attention is getting pathetic. Creating this type of bait threads while there is a sticky for top 10 Ninjas and also a versus section.

If the only difference was intelligence, then:

Shikamaru, Kakashi, Itachi, Madara, Tobirama.

Pretty much anyone with above-average intelligence.
