Minato was trained by Jiraya. Maybe I should re-rank him as mid-level Jonin. Most Jonin are not around Kakashi's level. Also, I believe making Asuma the Hokage would've been a little more politically driven (much like how Minato was picked ahead of Fugaku). You try showing off your best fighting skills when you've been stabbed through the thigh/s. 3. Asuma, Shikamaru, Kakashi, Hidan, and Kakazu are all Kage level, but the reality is all though Asuma had more chances of fighting them the Kakashi and Shikamaru wiithout prep or even with prep showed that not all fights goes to plan and characters die. A Kage is generally the strongest ninja of a village and the Five Kage are considered to be the top fighters on the continent. ... 4 Gaara Of The Sand Was The Youngest Kage In History At The Age Of 15. “Fourth-Kage regards Obito as S-Rank Missing-nin is wanted!” Uchiha mountain breathing heavily, panting with rage growled, “Fourth-Kage is a declaration of war to our Uchiha Clan!” Uchiha Fugaku frowned. Everything related to the Naruto and Boruto series goes here. at least. But that also means he doesnt have the downsides of the sharingan either, namely the stamina issues. The Hokage is usually viewed as the strongest in the village but that clearly wasn't the case for Kakashi. Kakashi was previously considered for the Hokage position because he was Minato's student. When it comes to Asuma though, I just think Asuma's sample size is too small to really say much. 18. im obviously talking about war arc Neji ; but anyways this post is about rock lee in tier lists , people will almost always put rock lee at kage … On paper if should have been stronger than Kakashi even with the Sharingan. A Kage is generally the strongest ninja of a village and the Five Kage are considered to be the top fighters on the continent. without knowledge of his jutsu he'd be a handful for the likes of Kakashi and Guy without weapons or gates.

Difference here is that yes, they had intel by this point on Hidan and Shikamaru came up with a counter strategy before going into the fight. Most other Akatsuki were beaten/lost to high Jonin/low kage shinobi (i.e. He knows rasengan, he is jonin leader in young age (like gai, kurenai, asuma and kakashi). asuma got trolled, without hidan's hax ass jutsu he would've rekt his anus. "Three affinities, Kage-level reserves, a Kekkei Genkai, you really have lucked out!" Those two kind of became underrated when I don't really see them being weaker than Ao, Guy, Asuma, Kurotsuchi, Akatsukichi, Chojuro, Shee, and MAYBE Darui.... Not Kage level, but High Jonin level to follow the tiers. Tobirama trained Hiruzen. Kisame got his taken off by the Raikage, Deidara had to use the village as a distraction in order to barely beat Gaara, Black Zetus (who is not weak by any means) couldn't beat Mei (granted she did have a platoon of Jonin). He's one of Konoha's stronger Jounin, I think, but we only see him fight some no-name Sound Chuunin (and a Jounin, I think)... had a scuffle with Kisame... and then was incredibly unlucky against Hidan. Lmao, Kakashi and Gai are both Kage-level jounin, they were Konoha's strongest besides Tsunade, Jiraiya and Danzo by a decent amount at the time. Naruto said. It’s just you. Kakashi was the best choice. Kakashi w/o Sharingan draining his chakra is 3rd best Konoha ninja even if his pool is still low (well, compared to Naruto everybody has a low chakra pool) due to his massive experience and jutsu knowledge way above everyone else. Chōji Akimichi wanted to play with them, but the other children refused to allow him to do so, claiming he was too stupid to participate. He also beheaded Hidan but unfortunately that’s not enough. The eyes of everyone, subconscious looked towards six Kage Level experts. Everything related to the Naruto and Boruto series goes here. He’s closer to the average run of the mill jonin than Asuma. I don't think he's that weak. Being the son of the previous Hokage might take a bit more precedent than being a student of another, Only person stronger than Kakashi was Naruto though but Naruto wasn’t ready for that, Hokage wasn’t a heredity position, more teacher-student type. Additionally, Hidan had the advantage due to his ability being unknown, and he gave Kakashi quite a hard time up close too. Ensure stability in economic and military strengths of village. Though lazy by nature, Shikamaru has a rare intellect that consistently allows him to prevail in combat. During his Academy entrance ceremony, Asuma became friends with Kurenai Yūhi. He is of the same rank as Kakashi and Guy not of the same level … Asuma was a high-level jounin no doubt. 2. They went into that fight blind not knowing Hidan's abilities. Shikamaru is the only child of Yoshino and Shikaku Nara. Kinda like how Roman Emperors sometimes chose their successors. When he was young, he once played \"ninja\" with other children his age. He just doesn’t give me Hokage. Deidara I'm ranking as a weak-level Kage because he bagged Gaara and Gaara I think was a weak level Kage at that point. 10 The 3rd Hokage's Fight With Orochimaru Showed What A Kage-Level Looked Like. When he was in his prime, the 3rd Hokage was undeniably stronger than Orochimaru, but that doesn't mean that their fight during the Konoha Crush Arc wasn't impressive. Naruto shrugged and Asuma whistled. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Asuma smirked as he inhaled, then he leaned back and blew a smoke ring. Kakashi was trained by Minato. 10 The 3rd Hokage's Fight With Orochimaru Showed What A Kage-Level Looked Like. ... if he was promoted to jonin, an ANBU ninja was considered to be above jonin level, meaning he had surpassed the level … Shikamaru Nara is one of the main characters of the Naruto series and was once a member of Asuma's Team 10. Given this, the fact that he is the self-proclaimed rival of Naruto and the grandson of Hiruzen/nephew of Asuma, we all probably thought that he would be kage level. He actually performed really well and if not for the fact that Kakuzu was there to stitch Hidan back, Asuma would have beaten him at this moment. Even though he has this much power, Danzo simply pales in comparison to Kakashi. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Your impression of jonin is too high, most main characters that are Jonin are far stronger than average. Kisame I'm ranking as a high-level Jonin because it seems like he gives every single Jonin huge problems with the exception of Might Gai. Naruto was trained by Kakashi and Jiraya. While initially talentless, Lee managed to draw level with the likes of Sasuke and Neji through sheer hard work. Namikaze Minato also has a trace of apology on his face. Well I'd argue Kakashi without his sharingan isn't that much stronger than Asuma. Aside from heredity I don't think Asuma really had anything going for him, don't get me wrong I love him as much as the next guy but he was Jonin level not Kage level. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. The measuring stick for a jonin is someone weaker, like Ebisu for example. Madara and Sasuke take this. He has no noteworthy taijutsu skills, he's not a trickster with his clones and henge like Naruto/Boruto, he has no speed feats, has average reflexes, physical strength etc. Really, he's about as strong as Kishimoto wants to write him as. But the rest is right. There are not many Kage-level Shinobi’s in the village and after the death of Yondaime-sama, hardly anyone in Konoha could pose a threat to Orochimaru who is a Kage-tier ninja himself. Although Chiba’s current strength is not bad, it can be said that it is very formidable and can beat peak Jonin, but if you want to beat Kage Level expert, that is impossible. And due to Boruto Anime he has toad summons. The violent scene shook everyone’s nerves. His best fight is against Zabuza who in all honesty is just an elite jonin gone rogue and not a Kage level shinobi himself. Zabuza made P1 Kakashi struggle a lot, yet he is not a Kage level fighter. However they knew next to nothing about Kakuzu. For a while, everyone’s eyes were all staring at the violent Sarutobi Asuma. #2 Asuma had to carry 3 chunin and protect them which no doubt impacted his ability to fight. Edit: I actually made a major error in my first paragraph. Chunin level:- Hinata. Lmao, Kakashi and Gai are both Kage-level jounin, they were Konoha's strongest besides Tsunade, Jiraiya and Danzo by a decent amount at the time. He was the strongest after Naruto and Sasuke. The scenario's are different enough that it's like comparing apples to oranges but overall I think Kakashi had a stronger showing. So Asuma struggled and died against Hidan. Kakuzu had to get involved and stitch Hidan together again. Jonin levels don't get called out as strong by Kakashi, and they don't make Asuma (among the strongest Guardian Twelve) lose his shit by simply facing them. And Shikamaru was get off there alive. Being related to a previous Hokage doesn't give you the qualification to become Hokage.

He has the power to punch and push back the Gedo Mazo and even when sent flying by the GM took no damage so his durability is decent. Kakashi was chosen to be Hokage because he was the most qualified. Itachi I'm ranking as a high-level Kage. Though it's worth noting that HoKashi doesn't have the benefit of his sharingan. All the Jonin are kage level except for Neji beginning of shippuden. The most important point here is: Asuma is the weak link in the trio and is nowhere at the level to compete with Akatsuki/Low Kage tier opponents, which actually includes Sasuke and Orochimaru. So I'm rewatching Shippuden and have just finished the fight between Asuma's team and Hidan. Protect the village and nation at all cost. His jutsu arsenal seems very limited and the jutsus themselves are not that strong or versatile. Kakashi on the otherhand successfully fought both Hidan and Kakuzu while protecting 3 Chunin and didn't die. He was an excellent shinobi, were Kakashi was a great one. Naruto was too inexperienced. Asuma was born to Biwako and Hiruzen Sarutobi the Third Hokage. Sasuke obviously can't become Hokage. I think that, outside of the Kage, Kakashi and Gai are supposed to be the strongest Jounin among the five nations. Aside from heredity I don't think Asuma really had anything going for him, don't get me wrong I love him as much as the next guy but he was Jonin level not Kage level. ... each of these clones is powerful enough to take down Kage level shinobi, which shows how fearsome his usage of this Jutsu truly is. I don’t think we got to see Asuma much. If he knew it, things would evolve to this level. I'm not saying Asuma being related to the 3rd would grant him the spot right away. Konohamaru may not be on his level yet, but he's his own shinobi, at the end of the day. Asuma was a member of the guardian shinobi 12, a squad full of elite shinobi in charge of guarding the leader of the land of fire. We never get to see the average Jonin. Perhaps my problem with Kakashi and my nonexistent problem with Asuma stem from the same thing, the hype. We know that the Hokages have been students of or related to a previous Hokage. "Three affinities, Kage-level reserves, a Kekkei Genkai, you really have lucked out!" Those two kind of became underrated when I don't really see them being weaker than Ao, Guy, Asuma, Kurotsuchi, Akatsukichi, Chojuro, Shee, and MAYBE Darui.... Not Kage level, but High Jonin level … Fourth-Kage will also include Shisui in Anbu in a few days. Naruto shrugged and Asuma whistled. "You forgot my biggest piece of luck." "he defeated one of the paths of Pain, isn't this a kage level feat" ... Asuma etc. Asuma was sacrifice himself just for the knowledge of the enemy. Plus he finally realized Sarutobi’s ideology when he found out he was going to be a father. Thus, taking on Danzo shouldn't trouble him at all. He’s the son of the third hokage and was a top 7 ninja in the leaf village at this point in the story, Kakashi has an extranordinary reputation and Guy’s 8 Gates techniques make him a force to be reckoned with. I have seen a few good answers around but none of them have properly shown how insanely strong he is. At this time, absolutely impossible will declare of war to Uchiha Clan! Press J to jump to the feed. "Hinata-hime decided that even though I was unworthy of her, she wanted me anyway." He has the record for it, even served as part of the Twelve Guardian Ninja.

Son of the Hokage, had access to wind style, was also one of them 7 warriors guys (i can't remember the details) i think he would have made a good Hokage though. If Jiraya became hokage instead of Tsunade, it would be a unbroken chain. He's still a very exceptional ninja but without his sharingan, he's a lot weaker. 9 Asuma Sarutobi Became A Jonin At The Age Of 20. And Shikamaru was get off there alive. im obviously talking about war arc Neji ; but anyways this post is about rock lee in tier lists , people will almost always put rock lee at kage … 5 CAN'T BEAT: Naruto Uzumaki etc. Gai due to his complete mastery in Taijutsu, and Kakashi because of his well-roundedness and versatility. You could say they are the same person(See what I … Kakuzu intervened and saved Hidan. In general, the gap among Jonins of Konoha (compare Kakashi and Gai to, say, Asuma or Kurenai) is too glaring. Additionally, Hidan had the advantage due to his ability being unknown, and he gave Kakashi quite a hard time up close too. Naruto said. When he was in his prime, the 3rd Hokage was undeniably stronger than Orochimaru, but that doesn't mean that their fight during the Konoha Crush Arc wasn't impressive. Shikamaru Nara (奈良シカマル, Nara Shikamaru) is a shinobi of Konohagakure's Nara clan. Less an argument for Danzo to beat him in appointment. He wins his fights based on his tactics and versatility in ninjutsu. Sasori vs Chiyo & Sakura, Deidara vs Hebi Sasuke, Kakuzu vs Team 10 & Kakashi, Hidan vs prep Shikamaru). He had the intelligence and influence to become Hokage. Looks like you're using new Reddit on an old browser. Asuma smirked as he inhaled, then he leaned back and blew a smoke ring. In the face of Kage Level expert, Chiba can do some rounds and even retreat from the whole body, but if he wants to beat Kage Level expert, there is still no chance so far. “Third Hokage, Sarutobi Asuma, one of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, is sending an urgent message on behalf of Daimyo Yuhuo!” A rapid shout came from a distance. … sorry bro but I'm gonna have to say no, he got beat by Asuma Shikamaru Izumo and Kotetsu, Asuma was impressive but by no means Kage level, Shikamaru at the time wasn't kage level, and those 2 guys are never even seeing age level. Asuma's team actually was successful in defeating Hidan and decapitating him. Oro stated that Kabuto was strong despite the massive gap separating both in P1. He's incredibly well-rounded, is a genius, but has obvious stamina flaws and, if you take away Kamui, he doesn't have a trump card ability like Susano'o or Sage Mode or Hiraishin or Raiton Armor, etc. He's a Kage level though at the bottom of it. Also, most Akatsuki members would lose or have lost against Kages. There’s a lot of off screen jonin who aren’t even close to Asuma’s level. Here are 15 things that Konohamaru Sarutobi can do that Naruto Uzumaki can't. The violent scene shook everyone’s nerves. Hidan is a joke but that is in retrospect. "You forgot my biggest piece of luck." Overall I think Kakashi would be stronger but even putting strength aside Kakashi has shown himself to be much cooler and calmer in life or death situations than Asuma which is more befitting of the title of Hokage. However this answer will probably not even get one third of the up votes, those less informative ones do and thats okay. Asuma doesn’t scale to them but you have to remember they aren’t the measuring stick. High Kage level:- Tobirama, Hiruzen, Rock Lee? He'd beat Mei and Tsunade but he doesn't beat Gaara. I thought this topic was about how short Naruto was, not about which type of whale Hinata is. Also in Naruto during the chunin exams he saved Shikamaru and beats 8 (well actually 9) Oto-Nins very easy. Aside from heredity I don't think Asuma really had anything going for him, don't get me wrong I love him as much as the next guy but he was Jonin level not Kage level. "Hinata-hime decided that even though I was unworthy of her, she wanted me anyway." Tsunade is stronger than no sharingan Kakashi.

Kakashi is renowned as a Kage level shinobi when in my honest opinion he isn't even in that league, nothing supports it. Then Asuma was killed. Although you could also talk about the topping too. So my claim that he struggled and got killed by Hidan is somewhat false. Fat chance. Zabuza was a swordsman of the mist who are stated to be similar to Kakashi level, and the members of the Akatsuki beat kage fairly easily from their fights with them. When Shikamaru couldn't convince the others to let Chōji join, he left the game and went to his favourite spot to watch clouds.
