Hiruzen doesn't look very strong for an hokage
>>282456640He was the weakest Hokage.Reminder he was the dumbass that almost got a clan kid kidnapped by one of the nigas in Kumo and still accepted to deliver one of his Ninjas to be executed as payment to Kumo
>>282456640He 1v3d Orochimaru, Hashirama and Tobirama edos
>all other kages die young like bitches>some had children others did not>Sarutobi never died young>had the strongest students>out lived Minato>came back from the game to run as hokage again>lived in a time of peace Hashirama could only dream of>oversaw the uchiha extermination that Tobirama could only dream of>protected the village and raised naruto as a parental figure like how Minato could only dream of>had the legacy and not having the village destroyed only to be bailed out by Naruto that Tsunade could only dream of>had the longevity that Kakashi could only dream of>had the work life balance and length that Naruto could only dream of>be a leecherous old man who drinks and smokes>dies at a ripe old age with multiple heirsHe was the stongest Hokage because he was objectively the BEST Hokage. Good times, peace, stability, longevity, and dominance. Dude was so good he was hokage TWICE.
>>282457025>raised naruto as a parental figurekek
>>282457025>raised naruto as a parental figure>Dropped some fucking cash on the counter-top and walked out on a regular. Would occasionally do check-ins during his younger years but would typically leave Naruto to live off of instant noodles and spoilt milkYou also missed out on his inability to properly rear anyone outside of his clan leading to the creation of one of the most prolific criminals of the modern age in OrochimaruHe was shit. Tsunade did it better once she kicked her shitty gambling addiction.
>>282456640That's because he was drawn and created before the plot got around to massive powerlevel spikes
>>282457025>he was objectively the BEST Hokage.>letting Danzo pull ANY of the shit he didNah.
>>282456640Hiruzen was probably the worst and most useless of all the Hokage
>>282460873>most useless That would be Kakashi
>>282460901He made industrial revolution happen
>>282460031very fair point desu
>>282456640That's because he's just a guyNot the reincarnation of buddhist allien Jesus
>>282456640Why'd he get resurrected as an old man instead of being in his prime?
>>282456640When this fight happened the second being able to create a puddle with no water source nearby was supposed to be the peak of water ninjutsu or something
>>282462095Madara being revived in his prime was Kabuto making some tweaks. By default you're resurrected the way you died
>>282462095probably Orochimaru being an ass
>>282456640I'm surprised his younger self didn't get Bara'd like Asuma did.
