i don`t understand why people pay so much attention to iruka the chunin`s words?
hiruzes was strong, but no way near demigods like hashi or ems mada
urm because iruka didn't say "in my opinion he is the strongest hokage"
the databook didn't say, iruka thinks hiruzen is the strongest hokage
it said Till this day hiruzen is praised as the strongest of the hokages..
iruka said hiruzen is considered as the strongest hokage
The evidence is everywhere kiddo, you better look for answers yourself. You will never grow if you will just sit and wait for someone to feed you information. By the looks of it, you have more questions than answers.
First of all, we are comparing Hiruzen and Hashirama .. nothing more and nothing less. Your logic is relatively dull, if you keep believing in your half baked theories that Hashirama is more powerful because he can control bijuus or even took out Madara single handedly.
The same thing applies with a "Tank", it's a powerful weapon, but not an effective weapon to kill a fly. Fundamentals will tell you that everything has a advantage and disadvantage. Hashirama can control the Bijuu, but this doesn't mean that his invincible.
Yet again, the proof of Hiruzen's vast knowledge of Jutsu is his library. Hiruzen is noted to have known 1000 jutsu, if not, all Konoha's jutsu including the forbidden ones. Hiruzen was able to diffuse the EDO summoning of the 4th Hokage..meaning he knew about the technique.
Knowing and even materering 1000 jutsu is a testament of how good and powerful a shinobi had become. Hiruzen isn't a fool, he for sure had mastered a healing jutsu obviously.
When Hiruzen came into power as Hokage, no one dared to attack Konoha. Considering there were 2 shinobi world wars during his reign. Even Danzo and his ANBU root obeyed the 3rd Hokage without a single question.
Before you make your reply, please see the difference of what is Old and what is Young.
Dude, the answer who wins is in the bold part idiot.
It's stated that in the previous manga chapters that the 5 kages are nowhere in near the power of both hashirama and madara. Don't you think that you overrating him too much? The manga itself said it.
We didn't say that hashirama was invincible bec of the bijuu and the bijuu was too much for hiruzen too handle alone.
It doesn't matter that he knows a ton of jutsu but do you think that he can use that all at hashirama? Probably all hokages after the invention of edo tensei knows how to disable it.
Founding konoha and defeating madara + controlling several bijuu's is also enough to say how strong and great shinobi hashirama is also right?
Show me the proof that hiruzen knows medical ninjutsu? I will be waiting.
That's the point, no one attacked konoha because of the war! you should really know what you are saying my friend. They obeyed hiruzen because he was a hokage for damn sake! Use your common sense dude.
which databook?
Hashirama controlling bijuu's doesnt mean he's invisible but it means he has a sh1t load of power that Hiruzen cant do.
Also, remember kabuto did say that no one ALIVE is close to being as strong to hashirama...
What you said only makes Hashirama looks stronger.
Sarutobi when saw Kurama told everyone to wait for Minato... If he was such a strong old man as you say then he would be useful helping Minato handling Kurama and maybe, just maybe Naruto would have his parents alive...
That is enough said to be honest.
i have to disagree with you about the control of the tailed beast but hear me out. It wasnt that hashirama could make the tailed beast his bitches or even that he could beat them, BUTT he could SUPRESS there chakra so that they were controllable.. if he didnt have that power to supress then he would have a way harder time dealing with them.. and hiruzen did push nine tails out of village.
He is controlling it through his power it is seen by yamato being able to control bijuu. Yamato only the first power and no knowledge of these scrolls. Stop crying because the only fact you have for hiruzen is one line from the manga.
Hiruzen only won against hashirama and tobirama cus' of shiki fujin ( minato's technique ) wich cost him his life. he woudnt stand a chance against hashirama wihtout that.
Hashirama strongest of All if their is something more than god he is Dude do u really think that hashirama was complete when hiruzen fought him for sure dats hashirama body but that not his complete power hashirama chakra is still in use till date.....strongest. KAGE in the history of KAGES
Lmao I see you want an arguement, but i'm surely not about to give you that. Yamato was able to suppress Naruto's tailed beast chakra, he has never been shown controlling bijuu. All he was able to do was subdue Naruto at the most. Long story short Yamato could not control bijuu chief....
And your pathetic hiruzen has never shown a sign of ever controlling or subduing one with his power chief. you won't give me an argument because you have no points simple as that.
