How To Naruto

Great Shinobi World Wars

Before we start, I would like to pinpoint a mistake I did in the last chapter, Hashirama did not offer the Bijuu to the other villages, he sold them. (speak of millions of coins lmao, dang)

A point said in the comments caught my attention concerning having little info on the Uzumaki clan. Which is kinda sad since most powerful clans don't have a lot of spotlight just because they're 'far' from Konoha or destroyed? Thus, I'll make a chapter later on them with as much info as I can find. And who knows you might just fall in love with one of them and make your oc born within it and some of them have that tragic background all you angst writers like.

Without further due, onto History class! Today, we will be speaking of the Shinobi World Wars, no chewing gum, eating or drinking in my class or I'm getting out my stick.

As far as I watched in the Series, I know that there are Four Shinobi World Wars. However, I found out that another war broke out in Boruto. A great world one that is which makes our number increase to Five Great Wars.

Unfortunately, I will be speaking of only the first four. I haven't watched a single thing of Boruto; I don't know the characters, the lands, the kages. And apparently there is a new hidden village? I won't get into details seen as I don't know them myself.

So I apologize in advance for not including the Fifth War.

I'd also like to say that I will not mention how long the wars took because well, it's fucked up. No one knows for sure. The info about it is all over the place; some say one to two years some claim a decade and I didn't come across anything that was '100 percent true'.  Therefore, I will only say during the first period of the war and the latest with no exact time.

The First Shinobi War:

The war started around sixteen years after the founding of Konohagakure and the other villages and, thus, getting out of the Warren States Era where the survival was for the fittest.

Not much is mentioned about the First War, it included the majority of Shinobi villages and countries. During the first period of this war, the very first five kage summit took place in an anymous location chosen by Hashirama Senju, himself. In order to establish a balance of power and a possible truce between them, Hashirama proceeded to sell the bijuu he had to the rest of the Kages. However, seen as Sunagakure already had their own tailer Beast, Shukaku, they asked for an alternative solution. The Kazekage demanded a section of their neighboring country's fertile land, the Fire country where Konoha is located, and a sum of the price the other village would pay for the bijuu. Naturally, the other kages, apart from Hashirama, found his demands unbelievable and threatened to start a war on Sunagakure. However, the Hokage calmed them down. Later during the war, Senju Tobirama became the second Hokage. After that, a peace treaty was signed between Kumo and Konoha.

Little did Konoha know, the gold and silver brothers as well as around twenty powerful kumo jonin were starting a coup d'etat on Konoha which led to Tobirama's death when he acted as decoy after assigning Hiruzen as Hokage.

Tobirama and his team, which included the rivals Danzo and Hiruzen, were surrounded. Before, Tobirama announced his sarcrifice, he waited for one of his pupils to see whether they were brave enough to volunteer. Danzo hesitated in fear of dying but Hiruzen didn't and immediately volunteered. As a result, Tobirama declared Hiruzen as the third Hokage before sacrificing himself.   

Sure, the idea of the Hokage, one of the most powerful people dying by the hands of nin may seem taboo. However, those were S class nins and the brothers, Rinkaku and Ginkaku, were like so damn op. You saw their name tool in the fourth war and besides that, they had jinchuriki like chakra and abilities from when they were swallowed by Kurama. So, it's natural that Tobirama would have died, hell I'm surprised he managed to stop their attack all by himself.
