So I was thinking that instead of the constant comparisons between the kage's strength in battle (I can't take anymore Hashi v Hiruzen, please no more!), which Hokage has actually made the most influence within Konoha, as well as throughout the entire shinobi world? NOTE it's not about who's the strongest necessarily. It can either be political, heroic, groundbreaking jutsu, or even for what's happening right now in the story...

The Hokages

Hashirama

- Established Konoha, the first village
- Maintained peace throughout shinobi world with several bijuu under his control and distributing them
- Defeated Uchiha Madara + Kyuubi
- Easily the most desired DNA in the series, practically used to power everything

Tobirama

- Created Academy
- Created ANBU
- Created Chunin Exams
- Created Konoha Police Force
- Creator of Edo Tensei
- Contribution to 1st Shinobi World War

Hiruzen

- Taught the Sannin
- Protected and saved village from Orochimaru's invasion
- Took Naruto into his care
- Acknowledged Itachi's will and protected Sasuke
- Contributed to subduing the kyuubi during Obito's attack

Minato

- Defeated Obito, sealed the Kyuubi inside Naruto and saved the village. In one night. Not bad.
- Created Dead Demon Consuming Seal
- Contributed to success of 3rd Shinobi World War

Tsunade

- Created the medical ninja system. Very crucial and not to be underestimated
- Mainly responsible for Konoha's success in the 2nd Shinobi World War

Upon first thought i'd go for Tobirama given the fact that he basically built all of Konoha's political infrastructure, and that structure is mimicked throughout other villages as well. But obviously the other Hokage's can't be overlooked. It's difficult. Get voting and feel free to add opinions. Peace :D

Tobirama easily.
Even without Edo Tensei (which shouldn't be counted, because you can't prove whether or not he created it while he was Hokage).

It doesn't even matter if he created it or not.

OT: Can't pick between first three Hokage

How does Edo Tensei have anything to do with him as a Hokage? How do you even know he created the jutsu while he was Hokage? How could he have anticipated that others would use it for evil intentions? Do you think he wanted that to happen?

Oh.

With the academy, Konoha's up-and-coming shinobi became much more powerful than they would have been without the academy, thus boosting Konoha's military prowess.

With the Chuunin Exams alone, he stopped many potential Great Shinobi World Wars.

With the oppression of the Uchiha, he prevented any other cases like Madara, which if he did not prevent it could have lead to a civil war within Konoha, after which other nations would take advantage, once again resulting in a Great Shinobi World War.

Under Hiruzen, the Uchiha Massacre occurred, crippling Konoha's military prowess.

Under Minato, the Kyuubi attack occurred, where many valuable lives were lost, once again crippling Konoha's military prowess.

Under Tsunade, the whole village was destroyed, and most of the population was deceased. What military prowess did they even have at that point?


So, the point is, over the years, Tobirama's creation of the academy, chuunin exams, and the Konoha military police force have prevented many potential Great Shinobi World Wars. Yes, the Uchiha did plan a coup, but that was AFTER they were suspected in the Nine Tails' attack on Konoha (with reason; who other than an Uchiha could have done it?) under Minato's leadership and the Uchiha Massacre did occur, but that was under Hiruzen's leadership; the village was not Tobirama's responsibility at that point, as he was already dead for many years, correct?

I can't find the other part, lol.

Tobirama because if he never created the Academy, Minato and Kushina wouldn't have met.
