Kakashi or Itachi. Zabuza too.

 

[Kαmi]

Black and White Zetsu

Kabuto is also a pretty good ninja like shinobi as well.

Historical ninjas, as the majority of people imagine them, are purely fictional. That kind of ninja has never existed, the way Hollywood and video games portray them.

But Kakashi, Itachi, and Danzo best represent that ideal.

Historically, ninjas may or may not have existed. 'Cause they're so ninja.

Jokes aside, their origins can be traced back to nomadic thieves in the mountains that used superstition and smoke & mirrors, rogue Samurai that went black ops, rebel guerrillas against tyrannical imperial rule, the classical belief as you mentioned, or just mercenaries... or all of the above and no one answer is the right answer.

For the most part... Ninja's weren't godly assassins. They were more closely associated as spies or informants. Often wearing civilian farming clothes than actual Black Ninja clothes.

They'd be more like the people who'd wander into a village, and during the night open the gates from the inside. Or perhaps start a fire to distract an enemy so that an allied force could assault the enemy team.


Kuro Zetsu


1. Stealth. He's the only character who consistently uses stealth. His introduction is spying. His major scenes up until now were spying. Even after being "defeated" by Chojiro, he was secretly hiding under the current battlefield.

2. Power. He's not some god who whips out giga-scale destructo disks/giant chakra entity armors/partical disassembling beams. He just has himself really. He has Mokuton, but even that wasn't large scale like Madara or Hashirama (or even Yamato).

3. Tactics. He actually thinks about what he does. Not as strong as some of the others?! Take a hostage (Obito). Help Madara and Obito and perfectly conceal his ultimate allegiance.


The only things that detract him from, "Being a perfect ninja," is 1: He's not even truly human. He's a manifestation of will. 2: He uses Mokuton and can blend into the earth. That's about it though.

Espionage and sabotage were the primary roles of "shinobi", typically by arson. The date of when actual ninjas first debuted is unknown, but it wasn't until the Sengoku period between the 12th and 15th century did ninja manuals, which are incredibly scarce, turned up. There's some postulation that ninjas have ties back to early China.

The Iga and Koga clans revolutionized the whole thing and became somewhat known for their skills before being wiped out and scattered across the lands. But that whole, "control the elements, run on water, spirit animal summoning" bullshit is just farcical to what actual ninjas were.

 

[Slowpoke]

I'm going to go with Hanzo or Kid Kakashi. ​

 

[FemmeFatale]

Team Gai maybe.

 

[EdoItachi]

Shimura Danzo
