Hashirama Senju
Hashirama is a name that is known all over the world of Naruto as he is the one who founded the Hidden Leaf Village alongside Madara Uchiha. He was a powerful shinobi who stood above his peers and enemies by a huge margin. No one was able to defeat him in battle, for many reasons. One of the reasons is his Wood-style techniques, which are impossible to deal with, so much so that even a tailed beast couldn’t match them. His regeneration was on a whole other level, as he could heal his wounds without even weaving any hand seals. Furthermore, he was the only one who was capable of defeating Madara.

Hiruzen Sarutobi
Hiruzen was taught by two of the best shinobi of their time, Hashirama and Tobirama. He was a prodigy whose strength was recognized by Tobirama himself. He later became the Third Hokage at a very young age during the First Ninja War. Hiruzen learned every single jutsu in Konoha and even mastered the clan-specific jutsu, which was unheard of at that time. He was hailed as the strongest Hokage and held Konoha together during the Great War. Furthermore, Orochimaru himself stated that the strength that Hiruzen possessed was greater than he could ever reach. That’s why he waited for his master to get weaker in order to defeat him.

Jashin
Jashin is one of the most interesting and mysterious characters in the whole Naruto setting. He is first introduced by Hidan during his fight against Asuma Sarutobi, where he performed the blood ritual. Jashin is said to be a deity that has many followers, who are known as Jashinists. This god is pleased by those who make sacrifices to his name and grants them the power of immortality. The prime example of this is Hidan, who achieved immortality and continued to do so until his actions were put to an end. As previously mentioned, not much is known about him, but a deity powerful enough to give such an ability is better left unknown.

At some point, she even consumed the chakra of the Divine Tree, which granted her powers that surpassed all beings. Kaguya has an arsenal of jutsus that can instantly kill a person upon touching them. Kaguya also has phenomenal teleportation jutsu, which she can cast in the blink of an eye. Her powers surpassed both Hagoromo and Hamura, which was the reason why it took them months to defeat her by sealing her. Furthermore, she even possessed the power to erase and create a universe from scratch.

- Title: Nation-Building God
Ten-Tails can be described as a calamity that has the power to destroy everything in its path.

The Ten Tails held all the Shinobi allies hostage, and even with their numbers, they weren’t able to even scratch it. Furthermore, Kurama stated that Ten Tails’ powers surpass even his, which is a statement that proves the dominance of this monster.
