Ok has anyone else thought about this:
the main reason why Sarutobi-sama said he had to prevent the fourth hokage's coffin from opening was because Sarutobi uses Earth and Fire and blood-line mud. Whereas the fourth hokage uses Lightning. Since Sarutobi doesn't use wind, he can't beat the fourth's lightning. Therefore he would be at a very great disadvantage. The reason why the first and the second weren't a problem was because the first had a speciality in wood which could eventually be burned by Sarutobi's fire (countered) and the second uses water which would be countered by Sarutobi's Earth jutsu's.
Wind Beats Lightning
Lightning beats Earth
Earth beats Water
Water beats fire
Fire beats Wind
Of course it was Yondaime's speed and chakra reserve that would also be threatening to Sarutobi... but it was mainly because Yondaime used lightning that caused Sarutobi to say he must stop the fourth.
