Tobirama died. How is this possible when he is so boss?

[Meowazziel]

He died vs the Kinkaku squad right? He was the sacrafice to let his team escape.
How did he die?

Tobirama is a boss!!

He can summon Edo tensei that can do infinite explosions.
He has FTG and seems to be able to use it on Minato's lvl or even higher.
High lvl water jutsu.
Sensory skills.
Possibly a special thundergod sword too (if you count the anime).
Even if you dont count the anime, Tobirama has, in addition to the other jutsus he has,
swordskills (fought in the manga with a sword).

Was the Kinkaku squad so boss, that Tobirama couldnt take them on?
That is some squad if that is true.
Kinkaku and Ginkaku didnt seem that impressive.
Sure the sealing weapons are nasty, but if Tobirama had been sealed, he would have
been alive and no Edo tensei right?

Did he not want to get sealed and did he kill himself?
Did he get killed by the squad?

How do you think this battle went?
I wish we could get a flashback from it, just as we had one from the Hashirama vs Madara fight.

He tripped a fell on a kunai. Though luck...
OT: He could have been overpowered by someone with lightning abilities.

There is this theory that it was actually Madara whom Tobirama felt and that is why he chose -HIMSELF- to be the sacrifice, because he knew Madara was coming after him and didn't want Hiruzen and co. to die.

Where can I read this theory? Madara has anything to do with the Kinkaku squad?

Tough**

Kishi gave him a stupid death.

 

[Corgi]

Doesn't Edo Tensei take time to set up? They looked like they were in a pickle, so I don't think he could've set it up.

Also, Minato uses a Kunai to do Hiraishin, but Tobirama has to mark the enemy with a seal physically, so he'd have to fight in close quarters first, take into account there must've been a lot of enemies if they knew it was a suicide mission, so he probably couldn't have used Hiraishin.

I'm guessing even with his skills with water, it wasn't enough.

I just wish to know exactly how he died. Like, what kind of opponents can take down the force that is Hashirama or Tobirama? How can Kishi show us these feats they have, but not what kind of opponent could defeat them >_<

[GreyWizard93]

With the recent hype for him I know we will find out.

We know about the other hokages, heck even the raikages.

 

[DocThao]

he got fodderized

 

[AllomnisymbolsparttwoT]

.___. dude the kinkaku and ginkaku had the sage's tools he dont know how many because the cloud got some of them TWO, dude they were pseudo jinchurriki's ain't no way tobirama surviving also he knew he was going to die that's why he state hiruzen will become hokage tomorrow or so

 

[LUMOS ULTIMATUM]

Some random fodder attacked him in surprise and killed him with a kunai. I see no other explanation

 

[illidanson]

Well the kinkaku squad was said to be made up of twenty highly skilled shinobi. Question is how strong "highly skilled" means.

I doubt they were all at the same level as Kinkaku and Ginkaku, but if they were just close to that, like very high jounin level or something then i'm not that surprised he lost.

Afterall it is extremely hard to keep up with that many shinobi at once. Having the number on your side is one thing, but 20 vs 1?? The odds were against him to be honest.

You could be right. Especially if he had to stop them from splitting up into a team that stalls Tobirama and a team that attacks his teammates. He had to fight while protecting. If he didnt have time for Edo, than that would have reduced his chances even more.

 

[mangafan321]

Edo tensei was a forbidden jutsu using it would have caused him reputation trouble. And kinkaku and ginkaku had tools of the sage and 9 tails chakra so it must be a credit how he could alone survive it.

 

[Meee]

I think he slayed them all and on his way back to Konoha he slipped jumping a barbed wired fence

 

[PYROVT]

1 - theory that even madara was involved the proof for this is when the hokage begin to move tobirama says ill defeat u this time madara

2 - his hiraishin is not as versatile due to lack of kunai and etc ( but could still use a stone u know )

3 - sage weapons nasty to handle , so he might have tired himself considerably

4 -(this is personal opinion ) maybe tobirama's hiraishin consumes large quantity hence he uses it as last resort so to face so many enemies he had drained a lot of chakra and was not able to use hiraishin

 

[ObitoGokuKakashi]

He blew himself up. Since he likes to do that alot.

 

[XMorpheus]

Where can I read this theory? Madara has anything to do with the Kinkaku squad?
