Here is everything you need to know about the strongest kage in Naruto.

Gaara

Gaara was once viewed as the Sand Village’s secret weapon because he was the 1-Tails’ Jinchūriki. Unfortunately, he could not control the Tailed Beast. It would often go on rampages, which is why the villagers feared him. This caused Gaara to hate everyone.

Fortunately, Gaara was able to change after meeting Naruto, allowing him to become the village’s 5th Kazekage. Thanks to the 1-Tails, Gaara gained the ability to manipulate sand. He can use it to bind, seal, and crush his opponents.

Kakashi

Tsunade retired shortly after the Fourth Great Ninja War, and Kakashi was named her successor almost immediately. He is one of the smartest characters in the series. In terms of skill, he is considered a true prodigy and one of the strongest ninjas that the Leaf has ever produced.

He may have lost his Sharingan, but he was still a formidable Kage who mastered ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and taijutsu. His chakra reserves may be low, but he uses them efficiently. He made the Chidori even more powerful by creating purple lightning that could produce ranged and melee attacks.

Mei

Mei Terumi did her best to reform the Mist Village’s bloody policies and rebuild diplomatic relations with other countries. She is proficient in Water Release, to the point that she could counter Madara’s widespread and destructive Fire Release.

She possesses two Kekkei Genkai, including Lava Release, which allows her to spit out acidic mud. She could use Boil Release as well. It gave her the ability to produce a corrosive mist that could melt through anything. Both of these Kekkei genkai can melt through a Susanoo’s armor.

Tsunade

As the granddaughter of the 1st Hokage, some would say that Tsunade was born to one day hold the title herself. That day came shortly after the death of the 3rd Hokage. Tsunade protected the Leaf Village as best she could during Pain’s assault.

Tsunade possesses incredible physical strength and a powerful life force. It is understandable since she belongs to one of the Leaf’s strongest clans. Besides Sakura, Tsunade is the only ninja who can use Mitotic Regeneration. This advanced medical technique allows her to instantly heal almost any injury.

Naruto

​​​​​​​Naruto started off as a troublemaker who just wanted to be noticed. By the end of the series, he managed to become a hero worthy of the Hokage title. He is the Leaf’s 7th Hokage and is arguably the strongest Hokage in history.

Naruto managed to become a perfect Jinchūriki when he and the Nine-Tails became partners. The Tailed Beast’s vast and powerful chakra greatly enhanced Naruto’s strength and abilities. Naruto has an array of effective jutsu at his disposal, and these abilities allow him to take on Kaguya and other members of her God-like clan with ease.
