{"id":"senju","name":"Senju Clan","japanese":"千手","category":"history","subtitle":"Building a village, not inheriting every power.","summary":"A clan tied to the founding of Konoha and the legacy of Hashirama and Tobirama. Its members do not automatically share Wood Style.","facts":[["Aldea","Konoha"],["Fundador","Hashirama"],["No confundir","Ancestry and skill set"]],"lvl":0,"sections":[{"h":"The first two Hokage","t":"During the invasion, Orochimaru uses the Reanimation Jutsu to bring back the First and Second Hokage, Hashirama and Tobirama Senju, to fight Hiruzen. Hashirama uses Wood Style and makes an entire forest sprout; Tobirama uses water techniques. Hiruzen stops them with the Reaper Death Seal and seals Orochimaru's arms before he dies. It is the first time the founders are seen in action, and it hints that Hashirama's Wood Style is exceptional, not a trait of the whole clan.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-137","pos":137},{"h":"Tsunade and Nawaki","t":"Tsunade is Hashirama's granddaughter and Nawaki's sister. She gave the First Hokage's necklace to Nawaki and later to Dan, her partner; both died in the war without fulfilling their dream of becoming Hokage, and since then she has been afraid of blood. She is one of the Sannin, Hiruzen's student, and specializes in medicine and physical strength, not Wood Style. A grandfather-to-granddaughter line is different from a father-daughter line, and the archive does not invent the name of the generation in between.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-161","pos":161},{"h":"Hashirama's cells","t":"Hashirama's Wood Style does not confirm the same ability for Tobirama, Tsunade or Nawaki. His cells, however, became material for experiments: Yamato uses Wood Style after being a test subject, Danzō hides an arm with implanted cells and eyes, the White Zetsu are born from the First's cells, and Obito survives with a body rebuilt with them. Artificial Wood Style is a graft, not a Senju inheritance. That is why the Senju lineage should be kept apart from the artificial use of their cells.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-603","pos":603},{"h":"War with the Uchiha","t":"Hashirama's memories show the time before Konoha. Butsuma, father of Hashirama and Tobirama, leads the clan in war against Tajima's Uchiha; the younger brothers die in battle as children. Hashirama meets Madara by the river and they share the dream of a village, but their fathers force them to fight. Tobirama mortally wounds Izuna, Madara's brother, which deepens the hatred between the clans.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-624","pos":624},{"h":"Tobirama and the institutions","t":"Tobirama develops a good part of the village's systems and of techniques such as the Reanimation Jutsu and the Flying Thunder God. He explains that the Uchiha clan valued love so much that it fell into hatred, and his way of handling them, with the Police as their assignment and a designated place, is part of the later tensions. The Hokage acknowledge their mistakes before Sasuke. Water, sealing and movement techniques belong to specific skill sets and training.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-627","pos":627},{"h":"The tree shown","t":"Butsuma is the father of Hashirama and Tobirama. Mito is Hashirama's wife, keeps her Uzumaki ancestry and was the Nine-Tails' first host in Konoha. Hashirama is Asura's reincarnation, which explains his rivalry with Madara, but that is a chakra tie, not a blood one. Nor are close family ties with Naruto added just because of the historical affinity between the Senju and the Uzumaki. The archive shows only the ties the story clearly identifies.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-671","pos":671}],"characters":["butsuma","hashirama","tobirama","mito","tsunade","nawaki"],"related":["mokuton","konoha","uzumaki","reencarnacion","uzushiogakure","valle-del-fin"],"reference":"Naruto, chapters 159–160 and 619–626: families, founding and memories.
