And Sarutobi was said at one time to be greater than the 1st and 2nd.
By people who never met the First. Aka Iruka.
Even in the fight against them he was able to hold his own. The series was on a smaller scale of power back then, least showing a smaller scale, but it was never implies Hashirama or Tobirama were weaker than normal.
They were toying with him, taking him apart at their leisure. He got his ass kicked once the two Kage were summoned.
Kishi has now taken the series to a whole new scale of power which has become ridiculous compared to the beginning which throws the whole power rankings out the window making Saru seem so weak, and Minato despite what people say about him, in his showings hasn't shown any huge powers, and all his attacks are upgrade or made up from existing attacks.
Well let's see.
All three have various people refer to them as strongest, and Hashirama and Madara referred to as the strongest by the narration on a chapter beginning IIRC. But Hashirama has the feats to back it up, as does Madara.
I won't deny the power creep. But if Sarutobi was intended to be the strongest, those days are long past.

Originally posted by NemeBroHashirama has no feats either, he's being compared to what this Edo Madara is doing, which isn't what past Madara had the power to do. And there's no way to know how much stronger Madara is, added to the fact he has unlimited chakra to spam high level jutsu, and crazy regen.

The giant meteor? And Kishi needs to do the Madara/Hashirama fight just to see how the heck Hashirama got around the giant meteor and through susanno.
No, the Perfect Susano'o that can bust a Meteor with one slash, and cut through distant Mountains with the force from said slash.
Madara never had the Giant Meteor when he fought Hashirama. The Giant Meteor is a Rinn'egan related ability. At least, I think it is, given that he had the Rinn'egan active, and Nagato used what looks like a small-scale version.

I though Blaze was just a fancy way of saying Sasuke could control Amateratsu flames. And I do feel kind of ripped off.So did anyone get Storm?
Yep, just a fancy way of saying he can control those Black flames.

Forgotten how genuinely horrific Sasori looked.
His character design is actually kind of cool, thinking about it. He looks like something from Dead Space.
