People say the Uchiha in Hashirama's time weren't strong at all since only two Uchiha members had activated MS (Izuna and Madara) at that time and because there weren't proper academies to train the shinobi properly.
However, I do believe they were incredibly strong since it was stated by Itachi that many Uchiha spammed Izanagi which allows the user to connect illusion and reality. Through Izanagi, Uchiha can even escape death. Also, they were raised in a time where training was crucial from a very young age as children were sent to fight, unlike the current 4th Shinobi World War. I think this proves that Senju members were very powerful as they were able to defeat the Uchiha and I think this also proves the Senju were actually a 'clan of with a thousand skills'. If not, how else were they supposed to counter the Uchiha members?
And another thing, it also proves that the Senju weren't strong only because of Hashirama, but the entire clan were all formidable opponents.
Thoughts?
