5 Weaker: Asuma Asuma Sarutobi is an underrated shinobi. However, Asuma is being considered weaker here only because of his passing at the hand of Hidan. One can assume that during his time as one of the twelve guardian ninja he may have actually defeated Hidan.

This forest is a large expanse of land owned by Konohagakure’s Nara clan. According to Shikamaru Nara, no one but members of the clan are allowed to step foot into the forest without permission. The Akatsuki member Hidan — though currently still alive — is buried here, trapped in a grave made for him by Shikamaru.

Basically with foreknowledge of his ability’s he can be beaten by any jonin that can doge his scythe and incapacitate him the reason he is regarded a as a powerful ninja is because by the time you know what he can do u are already dead or severely injured furthermore once he became part of the Akatsuki anyone fighting …

Jiraiya is Alive in Boruto: Boruto anime may be filled with fillers and is reaching an anticipated kara arc as of now, but the story in manga is getting along really well and it’s freaking out Naruto fans completely.

Hidan is a 22-year-old young man, with medium length silver hair slicked back with distinctive pinkish-purple eyes. He wears his Akatsuki cloak open with no shirt, only pants under it revealing his Yugakure forehead protector around his neck and Jashin amulet.

Itachi is stronger than Pain, but Nagato is stronger than Itachi. Tendo Pain is just a part of Nagato’s Strength. So Itachi is stronger than Pain.

Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi manage to seal Kaguya, who reverts into ten tails before being sealed spitting out Madara. Eventually, Madara dies because of the toll of both the tailed beasts and Demonic Statue removed from his body.

Despite the epicness of the fight, Madara managed to obliterate his opponents with ease, seemingly killing all of them, although – as it turned out – Tsunade survived. These are the two situations when Tsunade seemingly died, but as we can see, she survived both of them.

2 WEAKER THAN ITACHI: Jiraiya The third and the last member of the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya was an exceptionally competent shinobi. In his lifetime, he had trained people like Nagato, Minato, and even Naruto, all of which went on to become just as strong. Despite that, Jiraiya was, undoubtedly, weaker than Itachi.

Orochimaru feared Itachi because of his skillful use of the sharigan and mastery over genjustu. Itachi wasn’t an S-rank Shinobi for nothing. Itachi was feared by nations and tons of people not just Orochimaru. Not to mention Itachi’s two abilities the Amaterasu, and Tsukuyomi made him a deadly foe not to reckon with.

Lord Orochimaru himself in Shippuden flat out said Itachi (even while suffering from the effects of his illness) was stronger than him. Itachi as an Edo Tensei should be somewhere around KCM Naruto level in physical stats, and way more powerful than he was while alive and sick.

In the anime, Itachi is certainly one of the most powerful shinobi. It has been observed that Kakashi was defeated by Itachi by the Tsukuyomi. This is one of the strongest jutsu that he could use. But as has been remarked earlier, Sharingan user can’t protect himself from a Genjutsu cast by Mangekyo Sharingan.
