Tobirama died because he fought 20 elite ninja. 2 who which had ate 9 tails chakra. The Yin-Yang brothers i call them. Gold and silver to be honest. And 18 elites. He would have trouble with gold and silver brothers obviously.


Minato even surpasses tobirama i believe. Minato rivals ay and killer bee, fought obito and the 9tails. I think 1000 shinobi is true. Given the fact the clouds raikage was able to x10 that amount. Till he fought the 8 tails.

1000 or 50 he is still better than your favorite so I don't get what your ****ing point is Lol

Relax buddy, I like Minato too, I was just asking a legit question.

And no, Minato can never touch my top favorite lel.

1000 shinobis in one go, nah, that can't be true. If it's the total number he killed during the war, plausible.

Minato might have surpassed Tobirama in Hiraishin but I think Tobirama is overall better especially because he is a Senju. Also, remember how he roused his chakra at the Uchiha hideout.

Since when does one beat soneone because of their last name?

Defeated and killed is 2 different words and description.

An army can be defeated by Retreating. Not killed.
An army can be defeated by being killed.

At that time Oonoki asked for a retreat on sight of Minato causing a defeat of 1,000 shinobi.

I garuntee minato could kill 1,000 shinobi easily.

Anko Mitarashi, in discussion with the Third Hokage about Orochimaru's immense strength and threat to the village, stated that she wished the Fourth had been alive to face him. At a young age, he single-handedly rescue Kushina Uzumaki from three Kumogakure ninja During the Third Shinobi World War, flee-on-sight orders were given to enemy shinobi should they ever see him appear on the battlefield. In the anime, he alone defeated a thousand Iwa shinobi in one battle, later prompting Ōnoki to immediately consider accepting a peace treaty from Konohagakure.

1 battle, could mean location of a war.

Killed or defeated is irrelevant because it's in the anime. Therefore, not canon.

Minato didn't get the chance to kill 1000 shinobi, they all ran away when he arrived on the battlefield.

He probably did over the course of the entire war. Actually, even more than that.
In one battle, never in manga. However, killing 50 shinobi in seconds
without a giant AOE technique is very impressive still.

Just because it doesnt get shown in the manga doesn't mean its not CANON

Naruto isn't like One piece where it shows everything. Naruto's manga only shows things relevant to the main plot or main characters if needed. Sometimes showing extra bits that foreshadow something thats about to occurr.

Lel manga is the only canon source because it's the one created by the author.

ANIME FILLERS ARE NOT CANON!

Thanks for this. So I guess it was never stated in the manga that he killed 1000 shinobis.


Not in the manga = Not canon.

Manga and Anime have their own canon continuation. So, yes, it's canon in the Anime.

Minato said he would engage the front line, the same front line which had the thousand shinobi

It's been stated, no. And I highly doubt that he could kill 1000 by himself.

Bee could have ended him and Minato, Bee.

It stands to reason 1 Shinobi out of 1000 would be able to do what Bee did. Also, I doubt he has enough chakra to spam Hiraishin that much.
