Was Hiruzen stronger as an edo or as he was in his prime?

[tyltyl]

the title is the question

 

[Pyro NB]

I'll say Edo just because of the immortal body and infinite chakra

Prime Hiruzen>Edo Hiruzen mid diff
Prime Hiruzen>Hiruzen low diff

what exactly is prime hiruzen? I mean all we have to go by off is old hiruzen and in the naruto world people do really weaken as they get old. edo's are all stronger they have unlimited chakra and can reanimate.

It is said that their Edo bodies are weaker than when they were alive because of control. [Paraphasing] Hiruzen had just obtain benefits for being Edo, nothing more.

Edo Tensei doesn't reanimate people to their full power.

We got some clear examples.
In part 1 Hashirama and Tobirama were summoned in a weaker form than in part 2, this is clearly stated by Tobirama, then he also says that this time (in part 2) they were reanimated ALMOST at their full power.
Madara also showed to be stronger when alive. He was fighting on par with Edo Hashirama while he was also an Edo, but as soon as he got revived, he blitzed Hashirama.

Then, we also have the fact that they can also temporally run out of chakra, as shown when Edo Minato didn't have enough chakra to save Naruto.

So, I think is safe to say, that even the Hiruzen that fought Orochimaru was stronger than Edo Hiruzen.
And that Hiruzen was stated by Enma to be nothing compared to his prime form

edo tensei clearly have some flaws to fix, even if it was kabuto who made some few changes to the jutsu.

it seems they still cant go full power

prime (prīm)
adj.

a. Highest in quality; excellent: prime real estate; prime cuts of beef.
b. Being the most desired or suitable example of something: a prime candidate for the study.


now ask yourself the question; how can you be stronger than your prime?

if Hiruzen was stronger as an Edo then Edo is his Prime.

but unfortunately Edo doesn't reanimate your body to its full potential.

Then we also have this. He is right, if Edo Hiruzen was the strongest that would be his prime.
But sense he is not, like I pointed out, we can assume that Enma was right when pointing out Hiruzen's prime.

When Kabuto uses this tech they run out but it is almost instantly restored. While if living shinobi run out they have to get some rest and wait for it to slowly be restored.

"In his prime, he was the strongest of them all."
