Being one of the Sannin, as well as a former member of the S-rank criminal organisation Akatsuki, Orochimaru is an extraordinarily powerful ninja, being Kage-level in his own right. He was also considered as a child prodigy that appeared only once a generation. His skills were so great that during the time of his invasion in Konoha, the Third Hokage feared no one in the village would be able to defeat him or even fight on equal footing with him, even himself, and that Orochimaru was supposedly strong enough to take down a small nation all by himself. Even Kakashi, one of Konoha's greatest shinobi, was filled with tremendous fear when he met him during the Chūnin Exams, and himself admitted that he wouldn't even stand a chance against his power. Sasuke Uchiha also stated that his victory over Orochimaru was only because the latter was already severely weakened prior to their confrontation

He was able to hold his own against a four-tailed Naruto in Part II while his body was in a weakened state, and despite the danger Naruto imposed, he found the battle highly entertaining, even playing with Naruto's initial three forms. Even then, his body gave in, he expressed regret that he couldn't complete the battle. Even among the Sannin, he was the one who originally stood out for individual ability. Due to him rarely being shown fighting, he has only displayed a limited amount of techniques, although it stands to reason that in his efforts to learn all existing techniques, his array of abilities has probably become larger than any other single person, and has vast knowledge in all forms of techniques. His fighting style is very fluid and he is nearly invulnerable to most conventional techniques, even being bisected couldn't even slow him down. He even survived a direct punch from Tsunade's monstrous superhuman strength and all it did was damage the skin that made up his face mask. He also has immense strength in the anime, as when he was walking to Tanzaku Quarters, he was immensely frustrated by the pain he was in and used only a kick to knock down a tree.

He lost his arm cuz want try Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation.But other then that the 3 hokage would been done for.3th die cuz he must knew he can't match his power at his age.He did the next best thing befor he die seal his hand .But end Orochimaru found out how get this body back. Thank wiki

Yes he was. Oro wanted to see the 3rd hokages jutsu and lost his arms for being careless. It should have been an easy win with 2 former kages by his side

I didn't actually read your thread, but YES he was totally toying with Hiruzen. If he had honestly been trying to kill Hiruzen, he could have opened up with Bringer of Darkness and ended it easily. But he wanted to humiliate Hiruzen, which means the only reason Hiruzen managed to do anything was entirely plot.

^ What they said. If you take the battle with the 3rd vs the 1st/2nd/Oro seriously then...ya. I'm not going to rage....taking anger management pills.

There is no doubt Oro has alot of techs, that he hasn't shown.
What I wanna know is how much chakra does he possess (have).
He has shown some crazy a$$ Justus that look like it would drain alot of chakra.
But his always smirking as if, he never actually tried to put up a fight.

He was toying with Hiruzen, but then realize Hiruzen was stronger than him still at an old age
Even with 2 former Hokage
Not even close. Orochimaru was 100% the more power of the two. And if he hadn't been trying to humiliate Hiruzen, he would have killed him so quickly and easily it wouldn't have made for a good story. That is why plot decided that Hiruzen would be given a chance.

Orochimaru was toying with Hiruzen because he kept trying mind games on his teacher. Starting with the Hokages, and the mind fudge of revealing he was a girl. Though he did not go easy on him with the Hokages attacking, since he could not use their power to their maximum. Giving them control was also out of the question because both of them knew how to cancel Impure World Resurrection, and he would have had them turn on him.

Also, Orochimaru only had one benefit from the body switch...It prevented further pain from the necrosis, but this did not repair his soul. This is why he has no handseals ninjutsu, and lost to Sasuke. This is also why he only uses summoning techniques in four tails and why he says he still does not have the power to take Sasuke's body...He's trying to break the Reaper Death Seal which will give Sasuke the chance to meet the Hokages.

Orochimaru toyed with Hiruzen a bit since he realized Hiruzen was weakened by age and also because he believed he had the knowledge advantage on Hiruzen, until Hiruzen pulled out the Jutsu even Orochimaru didn't know about Shiki Fuujin. So both had handicaps the only shame is that Orochimaru's handicap was self imposed and due to it we might never get to see Orochimaru go all out with his own arms.
