Older people suffer multimorbidity at much higher frequency.

Less than 5% possessed basic functionality and 0% possesesed original functionality.

Rates of cancer is high.

Bones are much thiner and prone to breaking.

Eyesight missing or very low.

Organs fail at extreme levels of old age.

Behavior slows down dramatically, reaction time, speed, etc.

Old people are severely injured in base form



Old people forgets almost everything as well.




Hiruzen at extreme old age most likely couldn't hear and see as well as in the past. His bones density went down to 1%. He most likely lost all his OP jutsu due to severe alzheimers disease. He still had neutralizer though. But he couldn't use it like he used to because he forgot many of it's true functions. He had to fight while his organs were failing.


Old people are much weaker than their prime form.

Old Hiruzen was .01% of Prime Hiruzen.

This is a manga where a man can fly in at lightening speeds, rip someone's eye out of their socket at lightening speed like it was nothing, then place it in his own eye socket like putting on a shoe. A manga where an old women can conceal her age with special powers, powers that not only hide her physical appearance, but also seemingly hide her physically capabilities despite her actual age.

Don't bother trying to use real life logic with a manga. Especially this manga. Real life logic has no effect.

I agree with you. Once Kishimoto shows Prime Hiruzen, we are in for a show because this dude will be on fire.

So, you wikied old aGe and that´s what you got? Sorry, but come into your senses about applying logic into Naruto and please, refrain yourself from thinking that interpreting the story as if it were a Western comic book. Asia´s perception on aging and living life are FAR from whatever some nugget in New York -except of course if nugget itself is Asian- thinks life is.

That was the counter, now, of course Hiruzen hasn´t been shown in prime, ever, except for some glimpse or 2 in his edo, apart from that probably we will never see it. Why? Because he´s meant, my belief, to represent hierarchy through experience and of course, years lived. I do hope these remains the same, anyways witty way of defending the senile gokage
