Most of the powerhouses were villains. So a list of heroes of the past and present should be fun:
The weakest Hokage (as many view her) is still one of the strongest heroes Konoha has ever witnessed.
Kakashi is an extremely powerful and intellectual ninja. He's taking on even Obito.
Tobirama invented the prototypes of Edo Tensei and Hiraishin. His vice is that he appears hotheaded.
Minato, Itachi, and Nagato all praised Jiraiya as being a preeminint shinobi.
Shisui was one of the fastest men of his era, and the supreme genjutsu user of the world. Itachi's rolemodel.
Minato was the fastest man to ever exist, and one of the smartest.
Hiruzen's two nicknames by the common people: "The God of Shinobi" and "The Professor." Smart, and strong.
Hashirama, Hiruzen, Madara, Obito, Kabuto, Orochimaru, etc.―Itachi's intellect/character/power is ridiculously hyped.
While arguably lacking in intellect, Naruto is the only hero shown to rival Hashirama in raw power.
To this day, Madara and the common people believe Hashirama to be the supreme shinobi, rivaling legends of old.
Honorable Mentions: Maito Gai, Hatake Sakumo
