Kishimoto didn't change his mind, Hiruzen proved his worth!

He'd indeed a powerful shinobi and not trash. I just don't know if I still consider him above Hashirama or not.. I'm sure Kishi intended for Hiruzen to be greater in Part 1 but he IS known to change his mind on specific details.

oh cmon kishi probably didnt even thought about these godly jutsus during the 1st part of naruto. during that time he probably was influenced by avatar the last air bender since they use elemental jutsus during that fight.

he intended hiruzen to be the best but in the end he looks like a fodder ninja compared to the madara naruto obito etc right now.

thats all theres to it.

Wouldn't winning be, being alive after the fight? He achieved his goal which was to protect konoha but he did not "win" that battle.

Orochimaru one as hiruzen had a funeral (you know the thing that happens when people die) and orochimaru was seen fighting 4 tails naruto and with sasuke sooo....

1. S/T jutsu anyone with that is OP X_X
2. Master Suiton user
3. Senju / huge chakra amounts and strong physical body
4. a genius

So I think he was pretty strong. Also, Silver and Golden bros were only sealed you know not defeated.


But the thing is he isn't HAILED as the best. Also, Kishimoto did have all this planned out. When he introduced Itachi's Tsukuyomi.
best

Adjective
Of the most excellent, effective, or desirable type or quality: "They are the best pitchers in the league".


You're an idiot...all the anbu guy were saying is that they were both excellent shinobi's.. that's the meaning he was using best in...

"number 1 is the best". It depends on how you use the word. o_O. Unless you wanna argue about Sarutobi having a chance against the SO6P.

Noone said sarutobi had a chance against the so6p in the manga though

They cant both have been the strongest, since madara specifically said only hashirama was the strongest.... Which means the word best either meant in their time

or that they were just both of an excellent quality

The best is all based on opinion. People that seen Hashirama at his prime would consider him the strongest shinobi of all time and the same goes for the people that seen hiruzen at his prime. Most people base things on what they've seen or from the words that somebody that has seen those people in action. Example: people believe Hashirama is the strongest because kabuto and madara said it was so, but others argue that hiruzen was the strongest based off those anbu and iruka's words.
We shouldn't be asking who is the strongest because it really is an irrelevant subject. I think every hokage will be the best to somebody its just who are you inquiring your information from?

But I'll give what I believed every hokage excelled in.
Strength: Tsunade and Hashirama.
Speed: Minato
Intelligence: Hiruzen, Minato and Tobirama
NinJutsu: Hiruzen
Taijutsu: Hashirama (maybe Hiruzen depending if and how many gates he could use)
Stamina: Tsunade and Hashirama

ACTUALLY..... It was neither Iruka nor the Anbu that mentioned Hiruzen's title.......


It was him:

And noone said he didn't in the manga either o_O. Noone said Sarutobi had a chance against the real life Hashirama . So your point is?

It says they are hailed as the best shinobi.. Shinobi here is used for 2 people. Meaning those 2 are top 2 people of the village. Doesn't mean they are equal.

^Your inability to understand manga scans properly is disturbing...

Now you're changing to it means they are 2 of the best in the village?

still doesn't contradict hiruzen being the strongest hokage

and it can't be that both of them are the best, since as I said, Madara said hashirama was

Noone said Sarutobi had a chance against the real life Hashirama

actually people believed he was the strongest hokage, so yea

And your inability to understand words is quite annoying.. and then twisting them up. This is why its better to argue with people like Hipster Madara and many others.

Best shinobi.. there are 2 of them.. "those 2 are the best ". Doesn't mean they are equal. Just means those 2 are the best.
So the strongest Hokage isn't even hailed as one of the best shinobi? ;l sad sad. I like every hiruzen hype is past tense. Yet Tobirama and Hashirama hype by the anbu was present tense.. and what their status is in the village.

Which people? all i read was "he was said to be".

how many times must I say that best is equal to an excellent quality...

So yes, the anbu were saying that hashi and tobi are two of the strongest ninjas konoha had... But that isn't saying that they were the strongest....
