As we know the first Kazekage messed up Hashirama's original plan to create balance through Bijuu distribution. Looking at how the Bijuu are divide in canon...he probably was going for this...
Konoha-Kyuubi=9tails
Kumo-Nanabi + Nibi=9tails
Iwa-Yonbi+Gobi=9tails
Kiri-Sanbi+Rokubi=9tails
Suna-Ichibi+Hachibi=9tails
If things had worked out this way...would suna have been able to survive a blood lusted Hachibi during one of it's rampages?
