All known pre-Konoha male Senju's name end in "-ma" ( ま), more commonly written using the kanji "間", which can refer to space or a room.Despite this, the Senju's influence continues to live on in all of Konoha's inhabitants, chiefly through the Senju's Will of Fire. Konoha Hiden suggests that they are no longer active, as Kiba Inuzuka only recognises the name from history classes. It isn't clear if the Senju still formally exist as a clan, as no living Konoha villagers are known to still bear the name. Despite this, Madara's fears would end up coming true: Hashirama's brother became the Second Hokage, his granddaughter becomes the Fifth Hokage, and all other Hokage have been part of a tree of student–teacher relationships that trace back to Hashirama. Hashirama had no intention of the Senju being left in charge and in fact believed it would be best if all Konoha's villagers, the Senju and Uchiha included, focused on Konoha's interests rather than their clan's. Madara interpreted this as the first step in the Senju's supremacy over the Uchiha, and for that reason left the village in protest. The villagers of Konoha selected Hashirama to be their First Hokage, Konoha's leader. Other clans settled in Konoha to share their peace and Konoha's model was adopted across the shinobi world. Their unified clans made a pact with the Land of Fire to create a hidden village within its borders, what would become Konohagakure. Madara was moved by the gesture and agreed to peace. He was defeated, but rather than kill Madara, Hashirama offered to give up his own life if it would stop the fighting. Despite growing interest in peace amongst the Uchiha, Madara was reluctant, opting instead to have one last contest for supremacy against the Senju. In time, each became the leader of their respective clan, position that Hashirama tried to use to broker peace between them and finally achieve their childhood dreams. Hashirama and Madara continued to face each other in battle over the coming years. The Senju clan under Hashirama's leadership. Unable to do anything about the world at their age, Madara turned away from their dreams. But centuries of conflict began to wear on members of the clan Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha met as children and became friends, bonding over their disapproval of the combat and death that they and their younger brothers were constantly subjected to and dreaming of a time when children wouldn't need to fight. The constant warfare between their clans only fuelled their hatred, with all Senju owing the death of a loved one to an Uchiha and vice versa. When one of the fledgling countries of the era would hire the Senju to fight in their wars, the opposing side would hire the Uchiha. īy the time of the Warring States Period, the Senju and Uchiha had emerged as the strongest shinobi clans in the world. Their battle continued through the generations to their descendants, though neither the Senju nor the Uchiha remembered this reason for their conflict. Whereas Indra believed peace could be achieved through power, Asura believed peace could be achieved through love, a difference of mindset that caused them to battle over inheritance to the Sage's ways during their lifetimes. More distantly, the Senju are also related to the Uchiha clan, who descend from Hagoromo's elder son, Indra. Members at times married between clans, as with Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki, and the Uzumaki would provide fūinjutsu whenever the Senju needed one performed. The Senju are distant relatives of the Uzumaki clan, and for that reason the two clans remained close allies throughout the years. It is due to this they were the Uchiha Clan's primary rivals, and ultimately crushed their will to fight by the end of the Warring States Period. Due to this they acquired their name, "Senju" ( 千手, literally meaning: "a thousand skills", "a thousand hands"), in reference to their being "the clan with a thousand skills" ( 「千の手を持つ一族」, "sen no te o motsu ichizoku"). Compared to other shinobi clans, the Senju didn't specialise in just one area, instead mastering ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu to give themselves a wide variety of skills to combat their enemies. It was thought that the Senju's strength was based in love. As descendants of Asura Ōtsutsuki, the Senju inherited his powerful life force and chakra, and through Hashirama Senju eventually manifested as Wood Release.
