My thoughts exactly, Hashirama could've easily have been attacked by Kakazu again but this time accompanied by others on his level, hell he may have challenged Hashirama again after gaining the Takigakure Elder's hearts & won. :shrug:There were ninjas on Hashi's level during his time but they were weaker than him, then probably teamed up against him, just looking at this generation I can pick 3 or 4 people that can beat Hashirama if they teamed up against him,
