He was the first shinobi who proposed the idea of the delegation 'Kage' to his village and other great shinobi nations and later became the first Hokage of Hidden Leaf.
With a vision of peace and to stop the never-ending rivalry, Hashirama was once willing to sacrifice his life to achieve his endeavors. He had a remarkably strong chakra as he was believed to be the reincarnation of Asura Otsutsuki.

2) Naruto Uzumaki
