Is Minato Tsunades son?

[@IsItLunchtimeYet-1]

I have a different theory. Minato is Tobirama's great grandson. My theory is based on the fact that Tobirama, Minato and Naruto have the same exact physical traits, nobody knows how Minato learned the flying thunder god technique, and reanimated Tobirama's weirdly placed inner monologue displaying a sense of pride that those two perfected techniques he created. Not to mention that Asura's reincarnation had always been a Senju. If I recall correctly, Tsunade NEVER had children, not even in secret. She was strictly opposed to bringing children into their world.

[@guythat779]

What other asura reincarnation do we know? Let alone senju

[@IsItLunchtimeYet-1]

@@guythat779 We don't know exact names but we do know that Asura was reincarnated as a Senju until reincarnated as Naruto. Although the Uzumaki clan are closely related to the Senju, the reincarnation always happened within the Senju clan. The reason being is that, up until Hashirama and Madara made peace and founded Konoha, their clans were rivals and clashed for generations. Although the Senju and Uzumaki had a strong bond, you never hear anything about them helping in the conflict. What we do know is that they essentially remained isolated and had cultivated extremely powerful Jutsus. If Tobirama were Minato's father or grandfather, the reincarnation of Asura as Naruto would make more sense.

A few pieces to help with the Minato theory. Hashirama had 3 children and the middle child, the more known of them, was the father of Tsunade. It is also a slight coincidence that her moms maiden name is non other than Namikaze. It is stated that towards the end of the second war she was pregnant but is never really said what happens with the child. The big theory is that when she gave birth, she couldn’t bare trying to raise the child after the death of Dan and simply gave the child to her parents to raise and her mother being a birth namikaze would explain why Minato is one. Also, if you look back on the pain arc, when jiraiya and tsunade are talking on the bench.. he makes the comment “I’m no parent. But if I had a son like Minato, I’d be proud of him.” Immediately after making this remark, tsunades full expression changes and you can see it on her face. Dan and Minato look a lot alike and Naruto and Nawaki look a lot alike……. Food for thought.

[@FuckYoutubeAndGoogle]

It might be more believable if it wasn't Dan's son, but that would mean Tsunade would've had to have had a kid with someone other than Dan, which she wouldn't do.

[@darethefair3419]

Minato was born when Tsunade was 14 years old, Dan would've been 17 at the time. Dan died when he was 27 years old, Tsunade being 24 and Minato being 10 at the time. Tsunade first met Dan after her brothers death, she is obviously NOT 14 at the time this happening as by the time of Dan's death we assume that they have been a couple for at least a few years not for a whopping ten years. So already by this logic we can deduce that it would be impossible for him to be their son by the timeline alone. But what if the timeline is just inconsistent and Kishimoto decided to do this later on in the series? I can debunk that argument too. If Tsunade and Dan were Minato's parents, Tsunade would've taken him with her after his death, she wouldn't have left him in the village. You see, she took Shizune, Dan's niece with her, possibly to care for her out of respect for Dan and taught her everything she knew. If she took Shizune with her, she would've also taken Minato with her. If she loved Dan and if Minato was her son she would've brought him a long for her journey out of respect for her love. This is theory is an interesting one, and I can see how people like it, but it falls flat none the less. I will happy to discuss it with anyone who disagrees and has some points to bring up in the replies section

[@RagingRevine]

A lot of people don't actually go back and do a lot of fact checking before making videos like this lol. These theory crafting videos come from suggestions most times of high points of interest, rather than something that's looked into and proven beforehand.

[@faerox7155]

Minato was 24 when he died, which same day as naruto's birthday. Naruto is 12 by the end of part 1, and 11 during tsunade arc. During which she's 51. Minato would have been 35 at that point, meaning she would have had him at 16/17 if this theory was true not 14. That's just simple addition backed up by factual information, making the theory very plausible. idk where u got your info from looool. i even looked up a timeline which lists all major events in naruto including the births and deaths of characters and according to that theres 15 years in between the year tsunade was born and the year minato was born. Which if the source is actually accurate that would make her at least 15 which would still be believable if we are talking pure biology

[@darethefair3419]

I already debunked this. 12 plus 24 equals 36, 36 minus 51 is 15, and if we take off 9 months Tsuande is most likely 14 when she would become pregnant. Tsunade first meets Dan after Nawaki's death, when he dies she is clearly not 14 years old. Minato would've already been born at this time, and since Tsunade never had any feelings towards any other men besides Jiraya and Dan, Minato can't be her son.

Could also be Hiruzen didn't think Tsunade was capable of raising a child in her current condition and told Tsunade the child died and hid the child away. It wouldn't be the first time Hiruzen hid the lineage of a child because he thought it was for the best.

[@cland27]

Another point to go along with this is the only other person known to use Teleportation Jutsu (Flying Raijin) as their main Jutsu was Tobirama. And the only other people that were able to use several clones at a time as effectively as Naruto were Tobirama and Hashirama. Every other person shown to use clones only ever used one at a time or if they used multiple then they were basically bots. So it would make sense that they have Senju blood since Naruto and Minato both have high level of control over Jutsu created by Senju

What if Minato is an artificial son of Tsunade and Dan, created by Orochimaru as a way to distract her from loosing her brother and love, being almost same age as her brother, and looking like her lost love? Of course Orochimaru is really bad at normal people's psychology, so Tsunade turns away from this child, leaves village, Orochimaru be like "wtf am I gonna do with a 10 y.o. boy?"...

*All the supporting info:* _There are a lot words here_ Minato having insane chakra reserves (spamming flying raijin when it takes 3 high level Jonin working together to be able to pull it off just once, also spamming rasengan). That level of chakra can only be achieved through genetics, hard work alone doesn't take you to that god level chakra. Hashirama and Tsunade have god-tier chakra reserves because of their Senju DNA (plus Uzumaki for Tsunade). Minato having perfect Sage Mode, something Naruto and Hashirama both have. Why would Minato's body be able to handle Sage Mode so smoothly/quickly? Not only does Sage Mode need insane chakra reserves to actually work, but also for the user's body need to be "in tune with nature". Hashirama's Sage Mode was not toad or snake Sage, but he possibly taught it to himself due to possessing wood style (trees are nature). He was so skilled with wood style, that it isn't far fetched for him to teach himself his 'vanilla' Sage Mode. Madara, also acquired this exact Sage Mode after implanting Hashirama's face onto himself, proving Hashirama Cells allow you to get this type of Sage Mode. Cells come from DNA, which would be passed down to Minato, but the effects would not as strong as Hashirama's OG cells, but enough to support Minato's body in perfecting Sage Mode. Naruto resembling Nawaki (Tsunade's dead little bro) nearly identically. This would make more sense if Naruto' was actually related to Nawaki by blood. Why would Naruto and Hashirama both be the same exact Asura reincarnation, unless they are already related by blood somehow. All Uchiha are related in some small way through them originating from Indra, thus making Sasuke and Madara being Indra's reincarnate be total sense as they're both Uchiha. Naruto is not a Senju, but an Uzumaki/Namikaze. The Uzumaki are not Senju, but good friends with them. Hashirama was pure Senju. I do not believe Naruto could get the 'Asura genes' from his mother's Uzumaki DNA, unless his dad possessed some Senju blood like Hashirama. Kushina's DNA was most likely pure Uzumaki, since she had the strongest form of chakra chains (an Uzumaki trait) and she was specifically chosen to be the Jinchuriki of Kurama. Naruto didn't have the chain ability, not even Nagato did (another half Uzumaki, plus half Senju, which Madara explains why he chose him to house his Rinnegan). Karin did have the ability, but we don't know if her dad was also Uzumaki like her mom, but then again Karin's chains were pretty weak (Orochimaru compared her to Kushina). Minato's parents were never mentioned. His clan is unknown. Tsunade was a complete different person after the Shinobi Wars she experienced. She was completely traumatised by blood to the point she couldn't even stand up for herself against Kabuto punching her. It is perfectly possible that she gave up Minato since she understands she is unfit to raise a child while carrying so much trauma. When Tobirama fights alongside Naruto, he constantly keeps talking about how it is like he is fighting alongside his elder brother. Naruto and Tsunade get along far too well, as if they are family. He calls her Granny Tsunade, which she doesn't call out against (a cheeky nod?). Also, Tsunade was the first Hokage to outright show full support for Naruto. She is the only Hokage that threatened the village elders whenever they didn't believe in Naruto or wanted him locked up. Why would she have so much faith in Naruto? She knows he's one goal is to be Hokage, just like her deceased loved ones (Dan and Nawaki). She understands he is fully committed to achieve that goal of peace. Something that she once believed Nawaki then Dan could achieve, then she lost faith after their death. Naruto restored her faith. She threatens the village elders to protect Naruto. Its personal for her. Her own grandson, Naruto, who has fully restored her faith into once again believing peace is actually possible, this is someone she would definitely fight for and support. Anyway, thanks for reading (or skim-reading). I'm sorry this was long, but hey I'm passionate about Naruto 😅. Even if this is 100% debunked by Kishimoto, I still found it fun coming up with this conclusion. What you think?

[@heavenlydragoon]

Minato was also jiryia's student right, I dont recall seeing what "squad jiryia" looked like so what if he personally trained him and looked after him as such a fatherly figure because Minato is her son and she left to wander, Minato would be all jiryia had of her in the village, somewhat also explains why he basically left the village after Minato died despite knowing Naruto his God child was just born. To me if it was just student and teacher he would have honored his God father role, but if he felt like a real God father to Minato his death would have impacted him enough to leave for as long as he did and give reason for him to not want to get attached to Naruto when he did meet him.

[@nbHawkeye]

That's pretty much what happened, he probably also felt that he let Minato and Kushina die and had no idea how to talk to their son about this.

I posted the same comment before seeing yours. I am glad somebody knows their stuff or did some research.

Naruto is 12 by the END of part 1, so hed be 11 during tsunade arc. During which she's 51 not 50. minato would have been 35 at that point, meaning she would have had him at 16/17. Very possible to have a child at that age. im 18 rn and theres people who used to go to school with me who had kids at 16 lmao its actually scary how common it is

[@Promethazin3]

@@faerox7155 Your math is off because tsunade is stated to be 51 in the series but naruto starts out as 12 not 11 like you mentioned he is 13 by the end of the series along with minato being 24 and naruto being 13 he would’ve been 37 and tsunade would be 50 or 51 years old either way you look at it she would have to be 13 or 14 which is still possible for a baby but she meets dan when she’s older

Sakura mastered the 100 healings Jutsu. It's more likely Sakura has a Senju bloodline. Sarada has the Senju + Uchiha bloodlines. Boruto has Uzumaki and Hyuga bloodlines. Senju + Uzumaki = Ashura, Uchiha = Indra. Indra + Ashura = Hagaromo. Hagaromo + Hyuga(Hamura) = Kaguya level blood line. So, yeah. Boruto and Sarada's son would have a pure otsutsuki bloodline.

[@NeoXtreme_Gaming]

Hashirama was Senju, Mito was Uzumaki, Tsunade is their grand daughter and we have no clue what's mixed in with their parents so she's at least a quarter Senju and part Uzumaki.

Plot twist, fraternal twins?

He could also have him doing it without realizing due to the massive amounts of Chakra he can handle. Makes little sense, but crazier things have happened!

i don't think the senju bloodline is gone in that way. We know that the senjus married a lot inside of the village, even giving up the name senju to be a part of the village. This links me back to our favorite useless character (that is a bit less useless now) sakura, who in that case could have inherited senju blood from her somewhat noname parents because they just had it without knowing. Then Borutos would bring the uzumaki and hyuga part and sarada the uchiha and senju part. sounds kinda reasonable ?

[@Kujo830]

but sakura was senju then she wouldnt be so useless the averege senju is jonin lvl, so what happend with sakura then?

[@orianefaton1885]

Depends. If those Senju got with people who aren't ninja or maybe don't even have chakra, then you divide the quantity and at some point, yeah, it would go with what Sakura has. Because the genes had long been nerfed by dividing it. (I tend to think Sakura that useless as most seem to make her be, but I don't want to argue on that point. Other people maybe have the energy for it)

The only real issue I see with this theory is that if Kushina is the granddaughter of Mito then she and Minato would be incestuous cousins.

interesting theory but the issue is that tsunades's parent is half senju and half uzumaki and that tsunades is quarter. I honestly prefer that Hima had her own manga following her story becoming the next heir of the main branch. Considering that Hanabi doesn't have a child and how much she is doted on by the main family It to me would be more interesting to explore more of the world because we still haven't seen too much outside the other hidden villages. And it could explore her exploring the village of whirlpool aka the Uzumaki Clan in her travels.
