[Discussion] Who defeated Hashirama @ the end?

[Imperius]

Madara killed him in 1st ninja war, while Hashirama gave his tailed beasts to other nations(he didn't have anything to face complete susano'o)...and don't get wrong idea, Hashi and Madara we rivals, Madara lost the most important fight, but that doesnt make Hashi stronger, he had just better day than Madara, they were EQUAL
​

Hashirama Senju​

Any idea about who could have defeated Hashirama Senju?

I know , that Kakuzu and Madara have fought him?

They both lost.

Maybe it was Tobi who managed to defeat Hashirama?

Opinions?​

Probably he died because he used his regeneration technique to many times.

Probably he died because he used his regeneration technique to many times.

Against fodders he wont need that tech.

It must have been someone strong to even force Hashirama to use it.

i understand, it could be but then madara would say something like i killed your grandfather to tsunade or something like that, madara still respects hashirama so i doubt that, if madara was stronger and could kill hashirama he wouldnt respect him because he disrespects everyone who's weaker then him.
can't wait to see what hes gonna pull off tomorrow so unpatience

Yeah, I know but his technique was always active.

 

[Aze]

Yeah, I know but his technique was always active.

That could also be the case.

I didn't have time to read all of the answers, but in the latest anime sode...

The "Gold and Silver" brothers said they beat the 2nd kage.

I wasn't impressed with Gold and Silver at all, so I'd imagine there were others who were able to take down Hashi.



It could have also been a suicide mission where Hashi went up against many foes like his brother.

To the people that think he died of old age or illness or a natural cause just to remind you no, he died in one of the wars.

 

[The ProphecY]

Since Hashirama was hailed as the "strongest shinobi in his time", I could only think of 3 possible scenarios of how he got killed:

1.) There'll be no more contented shinobi in the NU who wanted Hashirama to die other than Madara. Hashirama was his main adversary. His growing hate for him was intensely depicted in the seiries. He became an avenger eventually. Thus, if Madara managed to survive with their all-out-fight at the valley of the end, then he could have a sweet revenged by killing him in the latter. How he defeated him though, is still uncertain. Perhaps, he had gained advantage from the war by succeeding so.

2.) Another possible shinobi who could beat him in a battle is Tobi. His S/T tech, combined with his agility, & intelligence are quite impressive as hell. He is such a dangerous opponent as powerful jutsu's might be useless against him. In addition, Tobi is a proficient genjutsu user. It is clearly undeniable that any shinobi who caught him off-guard will most likely be defeated.

3.) Since Madara & Tobi are aware of each other, as they can be on the same organization or whatsoever, then it's highly possible that they teamed-up to kill Hashirama. If they were to pursue with their Moon Eye Plan, the 1st Hokage will surely be a hindrance. Hence, to increase the probability of their goal to succeed, Hashirama needed to die. Should Ems-Madara & Tobi teamed-up for the battle, any strong opponents will surely be overpowered.

I think it will be discovered,sooner or later.

If he didn't die of old age, the only people I could think of that could have beat him are Rinnegan Madara and Tobi.
