First of all I'd like to say I have been thinking about registering here for over a year and have been reading all of you peoples Discussions, Predictions, and yes arguments but this is my first post. :) Sorry for lenghtyness and other things you will be sure to complain about.

So I was re-reading a few chapters back when they started the Madara/Hashirama flashbacks and it got me thinking. I'l start by explaining what led up to this theory:

How did Madara become so corrupted and end up betraying not only Hashirama, his best friend but the village he strived for? I noticed a few things, When Hashirama said, "I thought we were best friends." and "How can you do this to the village and our brothers" Madara said "How dare you." Now looking back on it from a few chapters foward I don't think Madara would betray everything so easily. And I doubt Hashirama becoming 1st Hokage had anything to do with it or at least very little, maybe a rift but nothing more. Hashirama even said Madara loved his brothers more than anything. And I think it was confirmed Izuna GAVE Madara his eyes to prevent Madara from going blind. But Remember how it was said Izuna died "Honorably in battle." I think he really did die honorably in battle. I mean hes Madara's brother and probaly equivalent in strength to Tobirama right? Even blind i bet hes a force to be reckoned with.

So to sum it all up and explain my theory further, What if Hashirama WAS inderectly the cause to Izunas death. This would explain why Madara hates him so much right? I think Maybe Hashirama sent Izuna on a mission even though he was blind, but maybe ordered some other shinobi to accompany him like say Tobirama or something. Maybe back then there were shinobi outside of Uchiha and Senju who were insanely powerful as well. Izuna and his gang happen to run into these shinobi and they actually are no match. Izuna tells everyone he will create an opportunity for them to escape and sacrifices himself honorably in battle. But knowing how Uchiha don't handle loss well or properly, even with the knowledge of how Izuna died from a trusted source like Tobirama, Madara blamed Hashirama for his brothers death hence the "How dare you." when Hashirama mentioned their brothers. Maybe since Tobirama and Izuna had a possible rivalry Madara didnt even trust Hashirama.

Well, I think :

He said he would save his brother no matter what. but he died.

Everybody chose the senju side, And mada hashirama Hokage i think
Madara hated him because of that and wanted to avenge his brother

That is a possible scenario.

Add to that the fact that Hashirama became Hokage and the Uchiha clan started ignoring him...

And who knows what else?

I decided for myself to doubt everything that Obito used as an explanation (in his talk to Sasuke) until the people who would know the truth (and all 3 are on the field right now) tell us how it really was. So my answer is, wait and see. Edo Tensei wasn't in the story to show us everybody's jutsu. It was there so we learn the truth. Everything can fully turn around and be against what we've always assumed.

So yeah your theory can be perfectly right or wrong.

Hm, I'd change it so izuna wasn't blind, still met these powerful shinobi and he dies just before madara gets there. Hence, izuna dying boldly, giving his eyes and madara blaming Hashi.

Welcome to the base, I enjoyed your theory. =)

I think Izuna got killed in battle first and then Madara took his eyes

Cause if Izuna gave Madara his eyes when he was alive, Izuna could've just gotten a new pair of eyes from some other recently dead Uchiha


And if Izuna gave his life like that so Madara can be stronger.. Madara won't have reason to be evil..

So maybe Tobirama killed Izuna or sth like that, or was sent to a mission and got killed and Madara blames Hashirama and the Senju for that and that's why he became so evil

Sounds possible to me, for the time being I would like to think that there are many reasons behind Madara's heel face turn. What you mentioned, him always being second might have had some effect on him too.

Everything can fully turn around and be against what we've always assumed.

I agree that Obito's account is suspect. I have a feeling that it is partly true - Madara was going blind, but rather than be offered the eyes, stole them from his brother. I also suspect that Uchiha's losing both their eyes end up dying. So Madara was ultimately responsible for his brother's death, intentionally or not. If he took them in a fit of insanity, and did not mean to kill his brother, that could explain the amount of anger and bitterness he carries.

On a different topic, I have wondered for a while why Edo Tensei is so prominent in this series. I think telling the truth is only part. Kishimoto could have had them unearth some old scroll that contains account of the event, rather than resurrect the dead to tell it. Edo Tensei is there partly for clarifying what happened that led to current events, but also to emphasize that just killing bad guys does not solve the problem of hatred and suffering, someone may unleash them from the grave. That the outcome should be to strive for Jiraya's ideal of people really understanding each other (naive, but this is fiction).

Your theory doesnt make sense..... Madara hated Hashirama BEFORE he became hokage..... how would Izuna get a mission from Hashirama THEN get killed THEN get madara mad.... it doesnt make sense with respect to time
