I agree with you Unc, if Kabuto has the balls to think something like that and he isn't ignorant (something that should be extremely obvious to all), then he must be able to easily take on one of the Sanin. This is something which is odd since Orochimaru said to Kabuto that he wasn't strong enough to kill him and in such an impudent way that it made it sound like he would be no match what so ever. He also put him at Kakashi's level and Kakashi was shaking in his boots when Orochimaru threatened him.
