Re: Those who believe Prime Hiruzen > Hashirama; How do you explain this comment?

Then he contradicts it by saying that Hashirama's strength was fabled like the Sage of the Six Paths.

It's really just open to interpretation. If we believed everything even Kishimoto wrote, then Sasuke would be dead due to this....



Kishimoto wrote that Deidara killed Sasuke right? It must be true!

No, Kishimoto gave characters something I call "Character Opinion". Meaning that even in literature, not everything written by the author is known to be true. It was in Deidara's opinion that he killed Sasuke because as far as he was concerned, nobody could survive his explosion.

It was also in Kabuto's opinion that Hiruzen was the strongest of the five Hokage and strongest Kage in his era. Why do I believe that Hiruzen is greater? After much research and more knowledge, and then around 3 years later (time skip was two and a half years, not sure how much time elapsed since the start of Part II) he has more knowledge and information. Hiruzen was purported to be able to use all the techniques in Konoha, that would include Gentle fist, Amaterasu (depending on when Itachi defected), and various Kekkai Genkai. If there weren't such contradictions against Hiruzen, then I would say he is the greatest. But I don't see it.
Are you serious right now? Even Orochimaru hailed him as the God of Shinobi and he was stated to be the strongest hokage konoha ever had. Just because the 4th and 1st are all hyped up doesn't disprove this. Its fine if you don't want to accept reality fanboy, but until disproven he is still the strongest hokage. No where in the manga does it state that minato or hashirama were the strongest hokages, only hiruzen.

Re: Those who believe Prime Hiruzen > Hashirama; How do you explain this comment?

First of all i believe what dan said because he was around during sarutobi's prime i believe because its during this time that He and Tsuande were together and Tsunade was sarutobi's student. But lets not get carried away, although i do believe ems madara will beat prime sarutobi and dan has confirmed this what he said shouldnt cloud your judgement. Its due to hashirama's unique abilities that allowed him to defeat madara.

So whilst prime sarutobi may not be able to beat madara, he can beat hashirama. He was his student, he will know his strength and weaknesses. An example is how he figured out the bringer of darkness weakness which is that apart from your eyes which has been blinded all your other senses are activate and its due to this that he was able to use his sense of smell to figure out where hashirama is. Secondly enma is a very good counter fo mokouton and we saw this. He was able to transform into a cage which protected sarutobi, but also with one swoop made hashirama's mokouton look like a twig
and the master doesnt know the students weakness? :rofl:

lol Hiruzen cannot beat Hashirama, he practically had to seal him in order to win, he would of had to do the same thing in his prime.

I don't care what anybody says, the edos Oro had were not perfected, they had no free will, they were just puppets controlled by Oro, I highly believe that if they had full control they would have wiped Hiruzens ass off the floor. Hashi used one Wood jutsu, and it was pretty lame, this was not meant to showcase Hashis power.

Hiruzen will never beat Hashi, are you kidding? lmao

What a brilliant person you are. Reading a show and disagreeing with the author. Orochimaru had perfected edo tensei that much was stated.

Re: Those who believe Prime Hiruzen > Hashirama; How do you explain this comment?

hiruzen was the strongest hokage !
show me him doing something impressive then

i saw him fighting 1st and 2nd hokage same time
2nd fired one jutsu then sat on his hands watching the whole time. hashirama fired two jutsu, one almost captured hiruzen and the other trapped him for good. furthermore, oro was watching, laughing and saying how the hokages were flat out toying with sarutobi

Even Orochimaru hailed him as the God of Shinobi
wrong. he said others used to call him god of shinobi. oro never said he agreed with the hypers

he was stated to be the strongest hokage konoha ever had. Just because the 4th and 1st are all hyped up doesn't disprove this
yes it does. if hes so strong how come hes done nothing in part 2 and gotten no people actually agreeing with irukas statement? whereas kabuto said everyone agrees no ones on hashiramas level anymore

No where in the manga does it state that minato or hashirama were the strongest hokages, only hiruzen.
lol we know they were stronger because they are such hyped up in part 2. not once in part 2 did anyone say "gee you know the third hokage? man he was strong!" kishi has changed his mind. he no longer considers the third as having any worth.

Why didn't Hashirama stop that?
1. he was being controlled as a mindless puppet
2. death god is invisible
3. he could have killed hiruzen any time but oro made him toy with him

Come on guys, Hashirama beat Madara who is considered one of the strongest shinobi in the world and also an Uchiha.
we dont know how he beat him or what actually happened. it could have been luck. it could have been just hashirama forming a strategy since he knew all of madaras moves and outsmarting him with clones

In that legendary battle, Madara has the eternal mangekyo shiringan, the kyuubi, and near the end , the Rinnegan. So tell me how is Prime Hiruzen stornger than Hashirama
no he didnt. he gained rinnegan at the very end of his life, and during the fight, lost kyuubi to hashirama.

he is even a descendent of the SO6P
so is obito

Hype dictates that Prime Hiruzen > All
hype dictates kabutos invincible and sasuke killed zabuza

Were only finding out about his powers in part 2
yeah and people apparently dismissed them as a myth

that is interesting as the kages are rated by raw power
since when is anything rated by raw power in naruto?

Too bad Kishi wrote Hiruzen > Hashi
when they fought each other, hashi toyed around and could have killed him

he already beat the first and second together with orochimaru on their side
if he had to kill himself, then its a draw. and oro won the fight. hes alive (albiet sealed) and third isnt. 1st and 2nd toyed and could have ended him had oro not been curious about third's new jutsu

I don't find Dan's word to be reliable.
well no one in the area disagreed. and if you dont find dan relibale then you dont find kabuto and iruka reliable.

He's completly clueless about this and is only going off of how Hashirama beat Madara.
then iruka is clueless when he claimed third was strongest of all

every jutsu hashirama and tobirama used, he knew about it... bringer of darkness, edo tensei , everything....
even if third knew about darkness genjutsu, he couldnt repel it. and it took him forever to come up with a way to escape mokuton.

nobody dared to say 1st>3rd until kabuto said he was a myth
meh. i was saying it still. the fight in part 1 was clearly in favour of 1st

The only reason it looks like Hashi and tobirama werent at full power in part 1 was because. In part 1 the fighting style was different
no they flat out werent full power

just tech spamming and who ever has the strongest one wins.
wrong. its still primarily about matchups and strategy. gai would have lost to kisame had he not been the perfect matchup for him. same with sasuke and deidara.

So yes Hiruzen is the best he just happened to have died before part so now he looks like a weaker kage then the 1st and 2nd.
but he is weaker. oro explicitly said the hokages were toying with him

. If hiruzen was THAT powerful everyone would be trying to steal his DNA and copy HIS powers.
he had nothing unique about him and sarutobi cells arent as useful as senju cells since only senju + uchiha = SO6P

With possibly the most obvious fact ever pointed out in the manga, Hiruzen remains the strongest hokage.
because iruka said so..right.

Prime Itachi
he never got to his prime lol

But when Sunagakure elders say that the third kazekage was by far the strongest kazekage they ever had.... Would you deny that?
theres no one for him to compete with besides gaara

Re: Those who believe Prime Hiruzen > Hashirama; How do you explain this comment?

Orochimaru had perfected edo tensei that much was stated.
and yet kabuto built on it and made it better.

comments and he fought 1st hokage, 2nd hokage, and orochimaru all at once
a comment from iruka actually. and he didnt fight them all at once. an example of fighting multiple people all trying to defeat you and coming at you from all sides would be when kisame faced team gai or when nagato faced naruto bee and itachi.
but 2nd fired one jutsu then stood there motionless the rest of the time. same with orochimaru. most of the fight was just hiruzen trying desperately to fend off mokuton and darkness. if 1st were the real 1st, he probabyl would have been laughing and toying around with hiruzens mind at his poor performance

No, all kishi wrote was that Hashirama > Madara
kishi wrote hashirama barely defeated him in a final epic fight when he gained control of kurama. and since madara was assumed dead, people thought 1st must have won outright

kishi said that hiruzen and minato are stronger than hashirama.....
source/link or get out

The manga also said Madara was praised to be the strongest shinobi in the world but he lost to Hashirama
strongest =/= unbeatable. of all series, this is true in narutoverse. even tobi could get defeated if enough people gang up on him.

viz scan right here, Iruka is refering to the hokages... this statement is also all over the databook..
a databook that came out 5 years ago. kishis always changing his mind. the most recent canon is what is being said in the kage summit/4th world war. not 1st databook, not part 1 and certainly not 3rd databook

Read that page over and tell me if you see an opinion there
its full of opinion. people THINK hes a professor. people THINK he had strength comparable to other hokage

why exactly can't hiruzen defeat ems madara btw? the only techs which we've seen from ems madara are that huge fire tech, and hiruzen has an equally huge rock one. then there's susanoo, which can be countered with enma's diamond staff and yasanaka magatama
yeah no it cant. diamond staff would just bounce off susano which tanked narutos oodama rasengan

he handled infinite darkness remarkably well
oro stated hokages were toying by that point and could end him any time they wanted

So you choose Kabuto's opinion yet disregard Iruka's? Hmm I see.
kabuto is a very knowledgable scientist who does research into everyone

He defeated two former Hokage (who were under a perfect Edo Tensei) at age 69
former hokage werent their real selves, and therefore didnt fight like their real selves nor use any of their best jutsu like flower world and wood clone. kabutos edo is the only perfect edo. and even then all jutsus can be improved upon. thirdly, he didnt defeat them. he killed himself to seal them and went to the same place of sealing they did.

Hashirama died long before Hiruzen's prime Hiruzen would've known everything about Hashirama.
because he was his sensei? sasuke cant pretend to know everything about kakashi. hashirama most likely died when hiruzen was a child, leaving hiruzen to tobirama.

(5)As has already been explained, that fight was down to part 1 power levels
excuse. part 1 isnt any weaker than part 2. the hokages were just ****ing with hiruzen and were being controlled

did Dan see Hiruzen FIGHT in his prime? really doubt so
and what reasoning do you have for doubt?

hiruzen says he's stronger than tobirama here, and he was even confident he wouldn't die against 20 master bounty hunters
kabuto thinks hes invincible.

Also Hiruzen defeated Edo Hashirama and Tobirama in his old age
no he didnt

Nope. Edos are the real thing
edos cant fight like the real thing if they have someone controlling their every move.
And Kabuto stated that Orochimaru had perfected his Edo Tensei.
then goes on to say he surpassed oro's edo tensei. so hes more perfect than perfect?

he was said to be the strongest kage in his prime
link or get out

orochimaru fought him he EASILY man handled orochimaru in mere seconds
oro barely even used anything on him. he could have summoned ten thousand snakes and raped hiruzen in the ass.

disabled hashi and tobirama and later while completly blind blocked every attack thrown at him by 2shinobi and in seconds found there locations and sealed them thats why I say prime>hashirama
orochimaru stated "do you intend to let the hokages kill you bit by bit as they toy with you?

The reason i saw this is because both obviously werent at their best. Hiruzen was an old fart and hashirama was not only being controlled, the controller oro didnt make full use of him. But hashirama still had tobirama and oro on his side and he was still defeated albeit in an edo state.
he wasnt defeated if hiruzen gave up his life to seal him. and hashirama could have ended the fight with one tree through the face but oro ordered the hokages to toy with him

Hmm, seems like you like to pick and choose hype when it suits you.

You say the previous Hokages didn't use all their justsus, I say Hiruzen didn't use all his jutsus.

For Hiruzen to know every jutsu which existed in Konoha, not perform but to know, suggests that he obviously knew a large amount about Hashirama, especially because he was his sensei.

Are you blind? Of course the part 1 power levels are lower.

All I have to say is show me the link where it says minato and/or hashirama were hailed as the God of shinobi, and where it was said he was the strongest of all the hokages. Hell even kabuto stated that hiruzen was the strongest kage at the time of his death.

I agree How can Hiruzen defeat The first Hokage Its like saying a ant can defeat an gorlia
You sure an ant can't defeat a gorilla?
I got my doubts, just bcuz they are big doesn't mean they can't be defeated by those smaller than them.

Ants can easily kill any kind of big animals if they can only touch.

How ants kill gorilla? Easily, just wait when its sleeping and then go through its nose causing them difficulties to breath and so die.

Don't know about a simple ant but a massive ants can for sure achieve such a feast.

Re: Those who believe Prime Hiruzen > Hashirama; How do you explain this comment?

well... all of the details of konoha's jutsu is archived right? karui's gang found out about sasuke's info's in the library.. and probably the secret techniques of every clan and kinjutsus are archived in a secured place somewhere in konoha... the hokage for sure has access to this archive.... so it is possible that hiruzen studied and mastered all of those techniques.... (except of-course blood-lined jutsus)... just imagine a shinobi who mastered every single technique in konoha... (example: mindswitch, shadow manipulation, baika no-jutsu) anyone would call that shinobi a god..
