This question was difficult to answer because none of the current Five Shadows could defeat the Nami Feng Shui Sect, Uzumaki Kushina, and Uzumaki Naruto. The current Five Shadows were all very powerful and each of them had their own unique skills and advantages. Therefore, it was impossible for one person to defeat them. However, if we consider the combined forces of the Water Gate, Uzumaki Kushina, and Uzumaki Naruto, we might have a better chance of defeating the current Five Shadows. These three ninjas were all very powerful existences. If they joined forces, they might be able to use their respective advantages to cooperate with each other to display even more powerful strength. However, the current Five Shadows were also very outstanding, so even if they joined forces, they might not be able to defeat the Water Gate, Uzumaki Kushina, and Uzumaki Naruto. There was no definite answer to this question because it was impossible to determine which of the current Five Shadows would win.
