Misconception: Hokages didn't teleport on their statue, they simply jumped on it

[Midday]

Is that confirmed? Do we know FTG takes him exactly to where his seals are?

It's always been very close to where he leaves the seal, the range has never been that big where Hiruzen has room to fall onto his statue.

 

[NarutoKage2]

Good thread, hope this shuts up all the Tobirama's ftg exceeds minato's bandwagoners.

 

[End of Days]

yeah they were right on top of the mountain, i would reconsider it, you may be right but thats because ftg makes a different sound when used

they cant teleport mid air, looks like they jumped, plus also they had time to talk before landing

Look, Kishi clearly draw this. The dust is going up. It's to show us they jumped

What was I thinking before? You're right, and so was Bogard...they did jump

Still don't get the *tap*

Huh...I don't think I'll ever find an answer to this although the jumping I suppose makes the most sense

Jumping 20 or so meters and not breaking your legs...seems legit.

 

[Blaze Release]

Bogard you are right, they just descended down onto their statues.
If you look carefully the current view hashirama sees in the latest chapter [

That was before the statues. But they were standing at the top of that place where the status were later located.
Here we see him seating on his head [

Besides didn't he mention the view in this chapter and said it reminded him of the past or something like that.
What is interesting is that it appears, Tobirama isn't bound by seals to teleport which surprises me

 

[Touken]

Alright, you've definitely convinced me now. Good find.

However, from what we've seen, I still think Tobirama's FTG doesn't have the same limitations as Minato's.

 

[BlacLord™]

Most probably know.

But, they did teleport to the top of the mountain from Naka Shrine.

Thanks for agreeing Concerning Tobirama's version, it's still unclear, that's why i really hope to see that in an actual fight to understand it better

Most probably know.

It happened off-panel. We can't really be that sure about it

 

[Touken]

This is why I think Tobirama doesn't need seals:

There'd be no way Tobirama would have landed a hand on Izuna to place a seal on his body since he's holds his sword with both hands and Izuna has the MS (which would make it really hard for Tobirama to place a seal on him), and Hashirama pretty much told Tobirama to take everyone to the battlefield and I'm really, really sure he doesn't have a seal there either.

 

[Minator93]

This certainly cleared a lot of things.

 

[Bogard]

The battle against Izuna happened off-panel until the final blow. We can't really jump into conclusion explaining what happened or not. I actually didn't see even Sharingan activated on Izuna's eye during or after the blow, so probably he was so tired that his sharingan turned off(like Madara while facing Hashirama) or he was even blind by overusing the MS(if he even indeed had MS). Like it's also possible that he did put a seal on Izuna off-panel and landed the final blow with both hands when we saw him appearing. I can also make my own scenario about it. It's still unclear like i've said

 

[End of Days]

Tobirama isn't bound by seals to teleport which surprises me

hashirama asked tobirama to make preparations, thats the key word

You must be registered for see images

tobirama already sensed madara and he may have a rough idea where they are

 

[Blaze Release]

@Bogard, yh we have to wait.
@end of days, that clarifies my point. If hashirama was confident of them appearing and Tobirama doesn't have any seals at the location that the war is held, that must mean his isn't bound by seals. Also tenso isn't jikuukin ninjutsu.

BUT, the hint given to us was preparation. Possible meaning though tobirama's might not need seals, however his takes longer to activate. Most likely isn't instant then

 

[BISHOPALONE]

Whoever tot they teleported isnt seeing well...But for guys who are using it to try and prove that tobirama doesnt use ftg, there's no need for that great lord to teleport over a short distance he could just jump across. Lord 2nd does have the ftg technique.

 

[MickNerks]

My question is why did tobirama place his hand on hashirama and why did minato place his hand on hiruzen's shoulder.

And when we've seen minato teleport before he fell into his landing. So, i dont see why its hard to believe that they teleported in this instance.

Either way it doesnt really matter becuase they reached their destination.

But im still under the assumption that they teleported. Becuase if they didnt there would be no need of them placing their hands on hiruzen and hash shoulders. And if they did just jump we probally would have seen lines showing that they jumped.



You can see when minato teleported the kyuubi that dust appeared

Spoiler

The same dust appear when they teleported to there respective heads

And i feel as if they jumped we would have seen streaks in there movemens to represent it, much like this

or this

These are lines underneath the body to represent vertical movement.

 

[TaBaYo]

Minato and Tobi teleported them above their heads adn each jumped to his respective head. I think y they did so was, if minato and tobi were teleport them straight to the their landing places, Hashi and Saru would hav found themselves on Minato and Tobi statue heads, which was not what they wanted. So they had to go a lil higher above and let each of them descend the space left to their respective heads.
Also as others have explained, there wouldnt be any need for tapping of their shoulders by those two. The tapping wasnt done by Saru and Hashi, it was dun by two Hokages who have teleporting abilities.

 

[Joshutsu]

People just call ftg for everything it is getting ridiculous they are basically handing it out to everyone that moves remotely fast by their logic

 

[Eishi]

I have a feeling that you just tried to refuse the fact that Tobirama has the same S/T jutsu with Minato's. Of course Tobirama's is a weaker version of Minato's... I know most of you are big fans of Minato and some are Tobirama haters but please don't ignore this adorable feat.

If they jumped up, this panel would be like this

Yeah, it's weird. Which is why I said that I don't think there'll ever be an accurate answer to this.

Kishi was drunk in others words, not thinking
