I get it I was half joking.
Tobirama evil? Oppressing the Uchiha? He gave them power and influence and the means to contain their unhinged emotions? He could have made Curse of Hatred public knowledge and locked up the Uchiha in a loony bin. Maybe he should have done that.Mianto, how could you commit suicide and leave the village in a poor state for ffs. Oh and Tobi could come back and take Naruro at anytime. Like what stopped that, except plot
Generally speaking if you want to go by overall historical portrayal. The evilest and smartest Hogake was Tobirama. The worst for the wars, oppression of the Uchiha, their massacre, not reigning in Danzo would definitely be the third.
Nice fanfic, the curse of hatred is nonsense. If anything he is the one with the curse of hatred. He was even spreading rumours and trying to undermine Hashirama.
LMAO, what?! Curse of Hatred is completely real! One of the themes Naruto ran around! It was mentioned and hinted repeatedly by many characters and most Uchiha manifested it. Tobirama proved it with scientific facts and research (he witnessed it many times in his lifetime), Sage of Six Paths said it, Black Zetsu made such fools out of the Uchiha for generations, Uchiha killed wave each other for their hunger for power, every single disaster in the series was caused by an Uchiha (from world wars to terrorists acts), even Uchiha massacre was orchestrated by other Uchiha.
Hirzuen did a lot for the village even if he made mistakes. He successfully led his people through three world wars and actively advocate peace between nations. He is called the most beloved Hokage for a reason.
He kept peace between nations but not in his village. I’m not downplaying Hiruzen’s good but he’s better off as an adviser for the hokage or second hand man and giving his opinion then.
It's not like there was any better candidate for Hirzuen. It was his bad like that his advisors were such rotten people. Hashirama and Naruto were luckier in that regard.
The reason he made the police force was because he didn’t trust them and he didn’t want another Madara. I highly doubt another Madara would’ve appeared if he didn’t distrust the Uchiha so much or at least not be biased. Just because you’re susceptible to nothing doesn’t mean you’re going to have it. To the people it did happen to, like Sasuke and Madara, they already had severe trauma. There were other Uchiha’s who were to loyal to the village, like Itachi and Shisui. The curse of hatred was a minority
He gave them exclusive control over law enforcement, how is that not a sign of trust? And Curse of Hatred clearly affected the majority because it's Itashi, Shisui and Kagami that are treated like minorities. Tobirama said he watched out for anyone who posed a threat to village and Uchiha had more than earned it.
Clearly you didn't read the manga, Tobirama was antagonizing and undermining the Uchiha. He isolated them and placed them in one place so he could deal with them. He removed them from being involved in the leadership of the village. And it only got worse until it culminated with their massacre. The curse of hatred isn't a things if it was then the Uchiha would've wrecked the village a long time ago. Tobirama's explanation is rubbish, since Madara, Sarada, Sasuke, Obito awoke their eyes outside of this so called curse of hatred. That was him just trying to justify his irrational actions.
Provide a source or get the f*ck out. It's you who is unfamiliar with the source material. There was no damn isolation. Only surveillance and it was Danzo's work not Tobirama's.
He said it himself, it was to keep them under control while making it seem like it was a sign of trust. Tobirama was discriminative and not a good hokage, even though he created A-S jutsus.
Tobirama never said it was to keep an eye on them, that was Tobi's story who is Madara's toy. It was Danzo who put Uchiha under surveillance.
