himself was hailed as the god of shinobi for his unmatched ninja prowess hashirama sought peace for the shinobi world and to that end founded konoha gakurei with his clan his childhood friend and rival matara uchiha and the uchiha clan he would later become the first hokage of konohagakure although he wasn't able to achieve peace during his lifetime his legacy and vision of the world would continue to shape the village and the entire shinobi world even after his death welcome to the imagi in today's video we're going over the life of hashirama senju before we begin we publish a new video every day so be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos background hashrama was born during the warring states period the eldest of bhutsuma senju's four sons hashirama and his brothers grew up on the battlefield waging constant war with the senju's rivals the uchiha during his infrequent downtime hashirama met a boy his own age named madura the two quickly developed a friendly rivalry be it skipping stones or urinating in rivers with hashirama typically winning their contests ashrama didn't approve of this practice of sending children to fight and die believing it would only increase the bitterness between the senju and uchiha thus causing more deaths after the deaths of their brother kawarama and later itama hashirama and his remaining brother tobi rama decided a new shinobi system would need to be implemented to end the cycle of child deaths a system that would require an alliance between the senju and uchiha like hashirama madara was also a shinobi who had lost brothers on the battlefield together they imagined a world where children like themselves wouldn't need to fight and where their brothers would be safe from harm as a precaution hashirama and matara didn't divulge their family names but nevertheless discovered each other's identities hashirama was a senju matara was an uchiha it was their duty to kill each other hashirama set his duty aside unwilling to take his friend's life matara however decided their dreams of a peaceful world were impossible and therefore ended their friendship so that they could kill each other without reservation over the following years hashirama and matara continued to meet in combat hashirama could never bring himself to kill someone he still considered a friend and matara could never defeat hashirama's superior abilities in time both madura and hashirama became leaders of their respective clans under hashirama's leadership and extraordinary ninja prowess the senju began to best view clan until at one point hashirama had both madura and izuna at his mercy however unable to find the resolve to kill his childhood friend hashirama tried to convince modera to unite their two clans to make their childhood dreams a reality a mortally wounded izana convinced mahdra otherwise and they retreated prompting hashirama to send a ceasefire request although sammuchiha found the offer increasingly tempting madara was unwilling to accept after tobirama killed his last remaining brother izuna this did not stop some uchiha from defecting to the senju out of self-preservation racked with grief matara made one final stand against hashirama and the senju and was summarily defeated toby rama attempted to kill madra to finally end the fighting but hashirama stopped him knowing that would only renew hostilities between the senju and uchiha at modera's suggestion hashirama offered to kill himself in order to achieve a peaceful resolution as he was about to end his own life matara stopped him moved by the gesture and ascented to peace the senju the uchiha and all their affiliated clans came together to found a village of peace where children would never need to die in battle hashirama and matara rekindling their childhood friendship called the village konahagakurei the other countries would soon follow konoha gakurei's example and build their own hidden villages although hashirama created much of the village's infrastructure with his wood release abilities it was his wish that matara become hokage the village's leader and protector at tobirama's insistence the hokage position was opened up to a vote by konoha's villagers and it was hashirama that they elected into office hashirama wanted moderate to become his advisor so that he could improve his standing among the villagers and someday succeed him as second hokage matara felt that that position would inevitably go to tobiarama which would in turn end badly for the uchiha with his position in konaha rapidly diminishing matara decided the village was a failed experiment and abandoned it intent on someday returning to face hashiram in battle yet again true to his promise matara eventually attacked honohagakurei on multiple occasions after countless fights and with the nine tails under his control madura challenged hashirama to one final contest the nine tails his power as well as hashirama's efforts to capture and contain it devastated the landscape carving out what would later be called the valley of the end hashrama spent the duration of their battle trying to reason with madura but madura continued fighting until he was too tired to keep even his sharingan active this enabled hashirama to distract him with wood clone while the real hashirama stabbed him in the back matara collapsed and before dying noted how much hashirama had changed from when they were children in the aftermath of the battle tobirama hid away matara's body and hashirama's wife mito sealed the ninetails within herself in order to contain its great power to konaha's benefit for a time things were peaceful hashirama helped train one of toby rama's students hidden saurotobi he got to spoil his first grandchild tsunade he locked away the scrolls of seals the kinjutsu it contained no longer necessary in the world he'd made but the peace hashirama worked so hard for started to unravel at some point takigakure sent kakuzu to assassinate him although he defeated kakuzu other wars began to break out and it was during the first shinobi world war that hashirama eager to form a lasting peace with the other villages convened a kage summit so that he could share the tailed beasts konaha had acquired with them thus balancing power amongst them but cooperation would not be so simple as hashirama intended it to be first by tobi rama's demand that other villages pay for the tailed beasts they received then by the first kazukage's counter-request of money and territory in lieu of a tailed beast as unrest began to grow hashirama shared his fear that any agreement they made would only be temporary but also that future generations could forge a lasting unity ultimately hashirama's wish for peace would not come to fruition during his lifetime and he died while konohagakuri began to flourish before his death he passed the title of okage to tobirama and instructed him not to mistreat the uchiha konoha crush orochimaru invades konoha so that he can kill his master hirosen sarutobi who is now the third hokage because rochimaru wants hirozen to experience the same thrills of fighting a teacher as he is he reincarnates hashirama and tobi rama recognizing hirozen and seeing how old he's gotten hashirama realizes how long he's been dead tobi rama meanwhile realizes they've been brought back with the impure world reincarnation and therefore will have no choice but to fight hirosen orochimaru suppresses their personalities and forces them to attack hirozen struggles to land an attack against hashiram and tobirama their coordination and responsiveness offering him few openings the few attacks he does land are merely regenerated by the reincarnated bodies because killing orochimaru will not end the impure world reincarnation he then uses the only option he has left after creating two shadow clones he has a clone capture each of the deceased hokage and used the dead demon consuming seal on them with their personalities restored hashirama and tobirama apologize for being such troubles to him just as hirozen apologizes for the fate he has sentenced them to he pulls the souls from their reincarnated bodies feeding them to the shinigami 4th shinobi world war climax at the request of sasuke uchiha orochimaru releases the souls of the first four hokage from the stomach of the shinigami so that he can reincarnate them after taking in their surroundings hashirama and tobirama are excited to meet minato the fourth and take him as a sign of konaha's continued prosperity hashirama asks who the fifth is and is informed that it's his granddaughter tsunare hashirama accordingly worries about the village's current fate sasuke asks the former hokage about the history of the village specifically with regards to the uchiha clan from toby rama's comments hashirama realizes that toby rama didn't follow his instructions to the understanding of the uchiha which greatly angered him when toby rama prepares to attack sasuke in order to protect the village from one of the last uchiha hashirama uses force to stay his hand the hokage are told about recent events namely the outbreak of the fourth shinobi world war and the reincarnation of modera uchiha tobirama wishes to go and help konoha's forces in the war effort and asks for hashirama's help although orochimaru has perfected his control of the impure world reincarnation hashirama is still strong enough to break free if he chooses instead of doing that however he decides to tell sasuke about his work to create konaha and the dealings of the uchiha as that is why he has been reincarnated in the first place hearing hashirama's history and reflecting on his own experiences sasuke decides he doesn't want konoha to be destroyed as is madura's current intention orochimaru releases the hokage from his control so that they can help in this goal and they set out for the site of the allied shinobi forces battle with the tentails although worried by moderate's current plans hashirama is at the same time curious how modera managed to survive their last encounter and looks forward to seeing him when they arrive on the battlefield matara sensing hashirama excitedly asks for a chance to fight him but hashirama replies that he'll need to wait entering sage mode hashirama uses sage art gate of the great god to bind the ten tales then assists the other hokage in erecting a barrier to confine it because he must stay with the barrier hashirama creates five wood clones to act on his behalf four lead an attack against the ten tales minions while the fifth engages matara matara is uninterested and offers to continue waiting until the real hashirama is available when obito uchiha arrives on the battlefield hashirama realizes that matara is forcing him to use the samsara of heavenly life technique to revive him he creates 6 additional wood clones to go after madra and stop him obito is able to resist moderate control and instead seals the tent tails into himself becoming its jinchuriki birth of the ten tails jinchuriki with his new power obito rips down the barrier easily shrugs off another gate of the great god and tears through one of the wood clones before it has a chance to respond the clone is able to retain its form for long enough to create branches that restrain obito allowing one of toby rama's shadow clones to use mutually multiplying explosive tags when this fails have any effect hashirama decides to get personally involved madura however is done waiting and forces hashirama to fight him hashirama tries to convince him to postpone but madura won't hear any of it while he engages matara his remaining wood clones provide what support to the allies they can and keep hasherama apprised of how the battle against obito is going after obito creates the tantale's giant tree form matara explains to hashirama the tree's function in the eventual implementation of the infinite tsukiomi needing to communicate this to the rest of the alliance hashirama has ino yamanaka telepathically link one of his wood clones to the rest of the alliance which now includes tsunade and the other current kage after saying hello to his granddaughter the clone relays his message and employs them not to give when feelings of utility begin to grow amongst the alliance's ranks hashirama shares his memories of the first kage summit with them helping to rally them all and ultimately defeat obito the original hashirama meanwhile manages to pin moderate with multiple gate of the great gods and surrounds him with wood dragons to prevent him from escaping naruto uzumaki arrives to help seal matara thus ending the war but matara implements a final trump card before they can do so successfully forcing obito to restore him to life with the samsara of heavenly life technique the full return of his original power allows madara to break free of his restraints and in the confusion quickly immobilize hashirama with chakra receivers madra is able to fight off several other immediate attackers but his revival has left him without his eyes diminishing his senses he approaches hashirama and absorbs his senjutsu chakra so that he can find targets based on their chakra signatures before he leaves madura notes that the plan for pc mentioned to hashirama so long ago is about to be achieved as sasuke is about to go after matara hashirama still unable to move offers to give him a jutsu that can be used to cancel out the senjutu chakra matara has taken sasuke asks why hashirama would trust him in uchiha to which hashirama replies that he resembles matara's brother izuna and that maybe that likeness will remind modera of the kind person he used to be before izana died in the end sasuke fails and the infinite tsukuyomi is cast with the whole world the reincarnated hokage excluded getting wrapped into god nativity of a world of trees kageya otsutsuki strikes sometime later the chakra receivers disappear restoring hashirama's mobility he reunites with the other hokage and they try to figure out what they can do to break the infinitsukiomi they are met by the spirit of the sage of the six paths who recruits their help combining efforts with the spirit of the other dead kage they summon team seven matara and the tailed beasts back from kaguya's dimension hashirama approaches matara who is too weak to get up and is in fact dying from his ordeal matara uses his remaining moments of life to admit that hashirama's method of peace was right all along hashirama forgives him and says that they are still friends despite everything which madra uses his last breath to say isn't so bad hashirama and the other kage are returned to the pure land by the sage of six paths as his soul ascends hashirama wishes sasuke and naruto luck hoping that they have a better experience together than he and matara did legacy the fact that only hashirama possessed the ability to use wood release and related abilities of controlling tailed beasts and self-regeneration made his dna highly coveted after his death in the anime kono has sanctioned several attempts to research and reproduce hashirama's power but all met with disastrous failure and further study was forbidden orochimaru exumed hashirama's body for his own experiments where he infused 60 child test subjects with cells harvested from the remains in the hopes that one would prove able to use wood release only yamato survives the process danzo shimura had a work relationship with orochimaru and had his right arm infused with hashirama's cells in addition to granting him increased chakra levels and limited wood release abilities it extended the amount of time he could keep izanagi active with his different sharingan and increase how often he could use koto amatsukami kabatu yakushi continued orochimaru's studies eventually learning how to create an implant that would grant whoever received it access to hashirama's power the only recipient of this implant was madura enhancing him beyond his prime matara uchiha took his own sample of hashirama's dna during their fight at the valley of the end which he applied to his injuries afterwards to accelerate his recovery decades later towards the end of his natural lifespan the mixing of hashirama's dna with his own would evolve his sharingan into rinagon using this dna sample matara created a mindless clone of hashirama with which he was able to produce a substance that could heal injuries and replace lost limbs tsunade later does the same this same substance would be used in the manufacture of the white zetsu army in the anime root saw this as a means to create an ultimate weapon researching for years to create gozu teno in the anime hashirama's dna became so highly coveted that samples were acquired and sold on the black market in the land of silence a large part of hashirama's legacy was his philosophy of the will of fire which became increasingly common amongst konoha's ninja in the years after his death future hokage in particular were expected to fully adopt the philosophy in time even members of the uchiha clan began demonstrating signs of the will of fire with hashirama claiming itachi uchiha's dedication to the village was even greater than his own personality hashirama was an excitable man with a boisterous personality he loved meeting new people having friendly competitions and gambling headstrong and often impulsive it fell to others such as his brother toby rama to be more responsible or realistic about things that hasherama had gotten carried away with when taken down in this way or even when simply presented with information that troubled him hashirama could do a near-immediate about-face going from laughing to sulking these moping periods were typically brief though and he'd quickly go back to his usual high-spirited nature later generations upon meeting him tended to remark that neither extremes of his personality were very fitting for a man called the god of shinobi despite the first impression he may give hashirama was capable of being serious when it came to matters that were important to him he spent years opposing the practice of sending children to war and dreamed of a shinobi system where a child could be around others his or her age never needing to grow up prematurely on the battlefield to that end he became very devoted to konoha upon its foundation as it was the realization of his dream for peaceful childhoods he wanted the rest of the village to cherish what konoha represented just as much as he did encouraging them to regard every villager as part of one large family that should always look out for each other as hokage his job was to protect that family at all costs even if that cost was his life this philosophy known as the will of fire would become a cornerstone of konoha teachings for decades after his death the will of fire is demonstrative of hashirama's general optimism when it came to other people he believed a village first loyalty would naturally break down the mentality that shinobi had to look out for their clans hashima lived by this philosophy long before konoha's founding having no qualms about killing himself if it meant peace between the uchiha and the senju clans in fact his entire goal of gaining more power was to have enough just to stop violence one example of this was he believed if the two most powerful clans during the warring states period were to join forces there would be no other shinobi clan to stand against them and would stop selling their services effectively ending the warring states period he always saw the best in others either trusting that they acted in good faith or that they could through non-violent means be reasoned with he was humble not above lowering his head to his fellow village heads or claiming inferiority to those he'd never met but whose actions he approved of if nothing else hashirama was kind placing the needs of others before his own he was even willing to take his own life if it would help create a world where his friends and family wouldn't need to die unnecessarily it was on these points that toby rama disagreed with hashirama most ardently as topirama felt that hashrama should have a greater value of himself and a greater suspicion of others it was similarly on these points that hashirama was at his most forceful asserting his views over tobiramas though tomirama did not often agree he knew better than to oppose his brother hashrama is also well balanced on this regard as he didn't exert his force over rama over past actions that cannot be changed such as when finding out toby rama seemingly mistreated the uchiha he expressed anger but didn't exert his force as it didn't do any good hashirama had a lifelong friendship and rivalry with madara uchiha eventually considering him a brother as children they would spend much of their free time together talking playing and planning for a future that they weren't sure would ever come both were willing to oppose their own fathers by refusing to kill each other but only hashirama kept up this refusal into adulthood even as enemies hashirama would go out of his way for matara restraining himself and toby rama so as not to hurt himself in indulging moderate desires at his own consequence when they were able to rekindle their friendship by making konaha hashirama placed a great deal of trust in madura by desiring him to be hokage believing it to be the best way for moderate to recover from the loss of his brothers when this ultimately failed hashirama respected manora's opinions and dissatisfaction with the village but would not permit him to move against konaha killing him in the end with sadness and reluctance in order to protect what they'd made together despite everything hashirama considered modera his friend to the very end did you enjoy our video be sure to check out these other great videos from the amagi and make sure to subscribe and ring the bell to be notified about our
