Despite their promising introductions and build up, when their moments came, these Naruto characters were much weaker than expected.

Tobirama Senju

Tobirama was the Second Hokage of the Hidden Leaf and was Hashirama's brother. He was a phenomenal shinobi who changed the Ninja world with his tremendous invention of jutsu, including the forbidden ones that are still used today. He had high chakra reserves, which allowed him to cast powerful jutsu with ease. Tobirama defeated many powerful opponents such as Izuna and also faced Kinkaku and Ginkaku himself.

Minato Namikaze

Minato was a child prodigy who studied under Jiraiya. He improved at an insane rate and became so powerful that he was given the title of Hokage at a very young age. During the Third Great War, Minato was feared by his enemies and told to run away when they saw him. Moreover, he was able to single-handedly defeat an entire battalion of ninjas, which shocked the enemies to their core.

His true power has not been seen, but it is said that he was more powerful than Tobirama Senju in his youth. It has been said on many occasions that he has surpassed all of his predecessors and has been called the God of Shinobi by the ninja world.

Hashirama Senju

Hashirama is one of the strongest and most important characters in the series. He was the one who founded the village of Konoha and became its first Hokage. Hashirama was a shinobi who was unmatched during his time and had a power that even the Tailed Beasts could not stand against.

Might Guy

Might Guy's eight inner gates

Guy is one of the strongest Jonin of his village, if not the strongest. He is a master of Taijutsu and has full control over the eight inner gates technique. This jutsu gives him a massive power boost and makes him a top fighter that even Madara was wary of. Before the war, Guy defeated Kisame easily, even though he was at a disadvantage. Furthermore, when there was no answer to Madara's overwhelming power in the war, Guy stepped up and put on a fight that remains memorable to this day.

Obito Uchiha

Obito vs shinobi alliance 1

Obito was a student of Minato and one of the main antagonists of the series. He had extremely overpowered jutsu, some of which made him virtually invincible. Obito primarily used Kamui, which made his entire body intangible, meaning that no attack could harm him. When he became a sage, he single handedly took on the entire Shinobi alliance and almost wiped them out with ease. It took a concerted effort by the alliance to bring him down, and that's a sign of his immense power level.

Madara Uchiha

Madara was Hashirama's lifelong rival and was once the proud leader of his clan. His strength was considered comparable to Hashirama, which is saying a lot. Madara became even more powerful when he became the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails, and this granted him godlike status. With his newfound power, he basically defeated the entire Shinobi Alliance with ease. Naruto and Sasuke were the only ones who were able to fight against Madara.

Kakashi Hatake

Kakashi is a famous and feared shinobi who is respected by all. He was called the Copy Ninja in his youth because he copied a thousand jutsu. Kakashi's mastery of the Sharingan was one of the best in the series. In the Fourth Great Ninja War, Kakashi received a power boost from Obito Uchiha. This power gave him access to dual Kamui, full body Susanoo, and many Six Paths powers. With that, he overpowered Kaguya herself, something that even Naruto and Sasuke couldn't do.

Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke is a talented ninja who became powerful in a very short time. He surpassed all of his predecessors and had better visual jutsu than most Uchiha, including Madara. His powers include Amaterasu, and he wielded those undying flames to a degree never before seen in Kagutsuchi. When he was blessed with the chakra of the Sage of Six Paths, he gained the Rinnegan with which he could use teleportation techniques of the highest order, and even better the Genjutsu that he could subdue Tailed Beasts with a single look.
