when is it said sarutobi was the strongest hokage? I remember it being known as minato. I thought even the 3rd said that.

lol at the water dragons. at least shadow clones held up pretty well

And the usefulness of Substitution has faded into obscurity.

Chapter 94. Iruka tells his students that "the Third was said to be the strongest of all the Hokage," and Hiruzen gets irate with him for using the past tense.

During the conversation prior to that, Hiruzen and Anko agree that if the Fourth were still alive, he would be a match for Orochimaru, and that Hiruzen most likely no longer is. Over time, people have turned that into "the Third said the Fourth was the strongest."

I guess another thing that's changed immensely is that Hiruzen was said to be virtually crippled by his old age, everyone kept bringing it up, and yet old people in Part 2 are still uberstrong - the Raikage, the Tsuchikage, etc.

right on. thanks for pointing it out. yea, it seems that the 3rd is victim to several retcons. the latest of which is how strong madara is making hashirama sound. you are right when you say that older ninja were severely weakened back in the older manga and now they seem to get stronger with age despite having a weak body. oonoki just keeps on using extremely powerful techs despite his 'bad back'
