Tobirama Senju, The Second Hokage

Tobirama

Tobirama Senju was the second hokage of  Konoha or “Hidden Village in the leaves”. He was the younger brother of Hashirama Senju or the “First Hokage” and played a major role in the foundation of “Konoha” along with Hashirama when Senju and Uchicha made an agreement. Although the credit of foundation of Konoha goes largely to Hashirama and Madara, Tobirama was the one who developed the infrastructures of the village, Konoha. He established the Konoha Academy, Anbu system and Konoha millitary force which. The millitary force was granted to Uchichas’ responsibility meaning Uchichas’ would run that thinking that would develop the friendship and trust between Senjus and Uchichas which would make the village free from troubles and help in prospering a lot.

Tobirama also had his own team know as “Team Tobirama” which consisted of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane. When the first shinobi World War was going on, Team Tobirama along with other comrades of Konoha including Danzo Shimura, Kagami Uchiha and Torifu Akimichi were surrounded by enemies. Those enemies were the Kinkaku-Ginnkaku force who ha already attacked Tobirama and second-Raikage previously as well and had almost killed Tobirama. Realizing that they could not escape from their enemies who were powerful too, Tobirama suggested that the only way to escape was one member among them  become a decoy to sacrifice himself and saving others.

 

 

During that situation, when question was placed “Who would be the decoy”, It was a silence situation for sometime, but eventually Hiruzen accepted that he would be the decoy to save others. Danzo who was hiruzen was struggling to let himself as decoy although he was thinking to accept that proposal but was afraid and couldnot decide faster. But in last Tobirama or The Second Hokage himself decided he would be the decoy and went leaving his comrades and appointing “Hiruzen “ the next hokage or Third Hokage. He died in that war passing his will of fire to his students.

Tobirama was also a strong Ninja of his time and was popular in using Water-based techniques or Suiton. He could create many unique and strong  water  based techniques such as  water Dragon Bullet Technique and could detect the presence of enemies by jus touching the ground. Another technique that made him popular was the creation of “Impure World Resurrection” techinque or “Edo Tensei”. This technique was a rare and very poweful technique which could revive the dead in edo-mode. This means you can summon the strongest dead shinobi completing certain ritual which needed merely some cells of the dead and a dead body. Later on he himself labelled that technique as “kinjustu” and stop researching about that. Later on this technique was used by other shinobis like Orochimaru and Kabuto as well. Besides these techniques he was good at taijustu, and genjustu as well, He was able to use the “Bringer of dark technique” and was proficient with “Space-Time” ninjustu as well. He was also able to use the Sword of the Thunder God.
