Jutsus are one of the most important aspects of Naruto series. There are countless of them present in the series, and they range from E-rank all the way up to S-rank, with those considered the most powerful earning the latter classification. Even in this category there are certain jutsu that are treated differently due to their nature.
A handful of S-rank jutsu are considered forbidden, and they are usually forbidden because they harm the user when using them. They sometimes also require them to do something immoral. Among them is the Eight Inner Gates formation, which gives its users immense strength that can rival the power of the 5 Kages.
But such power also comes with a downside, and these jutsu take a heavy physical toll on the user. As a result, there are only four users of the Eight Inner Gates, making it one of the rarest jutsus in all Naruto series. Since jutsu cannot be mastered by a normal being, one can't help but think of what other characters could have mastered the eight inner gates.

Hashirama Senju possesses insane physical abilities
Hashirama is one of the most unforgettable characters in the entire series, and fans remember him so fondly because of his insane strength. Hashirama was exposed to the horrors of war at a young age, forcing him to hone his strength in order to survive.
Throughout his life, Hashirama defeated many powerful opponents in battle, and his innate physical abilities helped him greatly. These, along with his insane regeneration, made Hashirama nearly invincible. There was no doubt that a talented shinobi like him could easily have mastered the Eight Inner Gates.

Madara Uchiha is one of the best Taijutsu users in the series
Madara's name struck fear into the hearts of enemies and allies alike, as he was so unpredictable that no one knew what his next move would be. Throughout the course of the series, Madara has done the impossible several times, such as fighting an entire army solo and fighting the tailed beasts. During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Madara truly showed the world the difference between him and the rest. With such strength and durability, he could have easily mastered such a technique.

Naruto Uzumaki has the Six Paths Power
Naruto rose from the depths of despair and became the hero the world did not deserve. His powers grew exponentially over the course of the series, thanks in large part to his willpower to overcome any obstacle. Naruto can use Perfect Sage Mode, which is something that even Jiraiya couldn't do. He later became a perfect jinchuriki of the Nine Tails and was able to use its power to its full potential. Nine Tails Chakra Mode made him physically superior to almost everyone, and his durability soared to insane heights.

Killer B's body is powered by the eight tails
For a large part of Narutos story focused entirely on the Hidden Leaf and its inhabitants, which is why fans knew very little about the other villages. Over time, as this changed, more and more interesting characters came into the limelight, one of them being Killer B. He was a strong and capable shinobi whose talents were recognized by Minato himself. Killer B was a perfect jinchuriki and a master swordsman, and a man like him had the strong foundation needed for a person to master the eight inner gates.

Otsutsuki are gods without limits
Before the ninja world came into being, Otsutsuki members ruled the land with an iron fist. The first was Kaguya, who had the power to wipe entire nations from existence. Later, her sons defeated her and made the world peaceful. All Otsutsuki clan members have absurdly high chakra reserves and special abilities, so for them learning and mastering the Eight Inner Gates would ultimately be child's play.

Sasuke Uchiha is the rival of Naruto Uzumaki
Sasuke is perceived as a ninja who relies heavily on his jutsu to win a battle. However, this is far from the truth and actually a total oversight by many fans. He is a powerhouse and an amazing Taijutsu user who is on par with Naruto himself. What's amazing is that Sasuke was able to go toe to toe with Six Paths Sage Mode Naruto. Not only did Sasuke use multiple jutsu in the fight, but he also did not shy away from using Taijutsu attacks. It is quite clear that Sasuke has all the prerequisites needed to master the Eight Inner Gates.

Her mastery of so many techniques makes her a nightmare to fight against.
