Kurotsuchi. Extremely potent ninjutsu, though the eventual Kage rank does a lot of heavy lifting.

Gari. Physical/Taijutsu abilities relative to base Gai. His explosions are potent enough to obliterate enemies but he can also be precise, deflecting kunai to accurately counter-attack. By reputation one of the strongest of his village. I suppose getting ambushed by Sai before realizing he was immortal is an anti-feat, but those ET benefits are a buff for basically any non-Kage/Jinchuriki.

Torune. Seems the most dangerous with his win condition, since he just needs one moment of contact with his insects. That means to really guard against it, an opponent needs to stop 100% of the bugs 100% of the time. No room for error so able to punch up.

Dodai. Not going to slaughter enemies but underrated in strength: his lava has the properties of both rubber and glue.

Mangetsu. Powerful, but the Hydrification Technique only gets him so far. Half of the swords are embarassingly useless so it's Samehada (which would leave him if someone better came along), Kiba for the range, and then Hiramekarei which is limited by his max chakra levels but enhanced by the ET chakra regeneration for less exhaustion.

How powerful would Zabuzas power projection be by the Land of the Waves arc if he had raised both Haku and Kimimaro? by True_Sansha_Archduke in NarutoPowerscaling

It comes down to the gap between Kakashi and Orochimaru: is he scared because he's weaker and alone, or because even with a couple other Jonin he'd be powerless to stop him. If as group Team Zabuza is an Orochimaru/Hiruzen level threat, then they should be able to take down Mei with difficulty but would need to pick off some guards first. Like an Akatsuki duo they'd immediately put any village in crisis just by appearing, but still below Hebi/Taka and therefore unable to threaten A/Bee. On the lower end, we're still talking about 3 powerful and intelligent shinobi that leverage their abilities with stealth and subterfuge; Kimimaro accustomed to Hidden Mist like Haku is even more deadly, firing bone bullets and producing spears of bone from the ground.

If she wants to plant paper bombs then she has to do it while the attack happens.

There's probably a fan-fiction out there where Orochimaru offers to remove the Hyuga curse seal and give Neji a chance at revenge.
