Shikaku: But it's still a dangerous gamble. Lady Tsunade, you're not known to be a shark.

Tsunade: That's when I bet money! It's different when I wager my life. That's why I'm still alive.[2]

Tsunade byakugou
I am First Hokage Hashirama's descendant. Yet, I don't use Wood Style, that's true. My Medical Ninjutsu is pathetic compared to the first Hokage's. True also, I am female. But I am not weak. Physical strength isn't everything. My true power lies in something passed on to me from the line of the First Hokage. My true power lies in the Will of Fire!!
~ Tsunade to Madara Uchiha prior to their fight[3]

Summary

Tsunade is one of Konohagakure's legendary Sannin. Though celebrated as the world's most powerful kunoichi and its greatest medical-nin, the repeated loss of her loved ones caused her to abandon the life of a shinobi for many years. She is eventually persuaded to return to Konoha and becomes its Fifth Hokage, where her skills proved invaluable to the village.

Powers and Abilities:


Attack Potency: City level+ (She is the physically strongest of the Sannin[31], and is renowned for her "monster strength".[42] She should be at least as strong as BoS Sakura, as her power was directly compared to that of Tsunade's by Chiyo[106][107][Note 1]) | Island level (Stated to be capable of killing Kabuto in a single blow, and could keep up with an amped Kabuto while exhausted and crippled by her Hemophobia.[31] Once she got over her hemophobia, she was able to draw blood from Orochimaru and beat him around, even while heavily injured.[1] She then easily incapacitated Manda[32], and defeated Orochimaru with a single blow, forcing him to retreat[108]. The Sannin were stated to be capable of defeating each other.[109] The Sannin were said to be equal to the Gokage.[110] She is hailed as the world's strongest Kunoichi[66], which should make her in a similar realm of power as Mei Terumi. Completely unfazed by the prospect of fighting the Fourth Raikage[111][Note 2]), far higher with Byakugō (Madara stated that she is stronger than the Raikage[41]. She was able to shatter Madara's Susano'o ribcage with a kick, and then punched straight through Madara himself[41]. She was able to shatter[96] multiple of Madara's Susano'o blades[81]. She was capable of fighting Madara's Humanoid Susano'o clones, and could slam one of them into the ground with a punch[81][Note 3])

Speed: At least Massively Hypersonic+ (Even when she was extremely rusty and exhausted[43], she managed to keep up with Kabuto Yakushi while he was amped by a military rations pill.[112] It should be noted that Kabuto is normally on Kakashi's level[113][40][114]. After she regained her resolve, she was able to keep up with and overwhelm Orochimaru[1][32]), far higher with Byakugō (While notably slower than the lightened Raikage[41], she was still able to tag Madara Uchiha multiple times[41][81], and could even coordinate her attacks with A's rather comfortably[41])

Lifting Strength: At least Class M (She was able to lift and wield Gamabunta's giant tantō[32]), higher with Byakugō (Far stronger than before)

Striking Strength: City level+ (She once brought Jiraiya to near death, breaking six of his ribs, both of his arms, and rupturing several of his organs[115]) | Island level (Physically stronger than Orochimaru), far higher with Byakugō (She can damage Madara's Susano'o and could obliterate most of Madara's torso with a single blow. Even when nearly out of chakra, she was able to deflect Madara's Katon with her bare hands, but not without suffering some burns[79])

Durability: City level+ (Should be comparable to Sakura, as well as her fellow Sannin. She could survive attacks from Hanzo) | Island level (Should be comparable to her attack power. She is physically superior to Orochimaru and Jiraiya. Saved all the citizens of Konoha from Pain's Chaotic Shinra Tensei by empowering Katsuyu's clones with her 100 Healing Mark's stored chakra, and survived the shockwave herself[116][117]), far higher with Byakugō (Should be comparable to her striking strength. She withstood Madara's Yasaka no Magatama without suffering any major damage[96])

Stamina: Superhuman (As a descendant of both the Senju[3] and Uzumaki[10] clans, Tsunade has an incredibly large reserve of very powerful chakra, as well as an extremely strong strong life-force and vitality.[118] This genetic make-up allows her to fight for long periods of time, while easily shrugging off and surviving grievous injuries. Even when she was still rusty, heavily exhausted, and injured after a lengthy battle with Kabuto Yakushi[31][119], she was still able to withstand a barrage of sword slashes from Orochimaru.[1] She was constantly slashed, and even fully impaled through the chest[120], but even then, she was still capable of regaining her composure after overcoming her Hemophobia.[1] She then promptly started beating Orochimaru, used her Mitotic Regeneration technique to heal her injuries, which is a very taxing technique, and proceeded to summon Katsuyu, another chakra-taking endeavor.[1] She then went on to beat both Manda and Orochimaru[32], before showing signs of exhaustion.[108] She could fight for hours on end[121][2][79] against the likes of Madara Uchiha even after sustaining fatal injuries, such as full impalement[96], even by multiple giant blades[81], stab wounds, and getting burnt.[79] She could even survive complete bisection for prolonged periods of time.[97] It should also be noted that during the battle against Madara, she was constantly healing the Gokage and replineshing their chakra reserves, which also took an additional toll on her.[122][81] She has spent years storing chakra in her 100 Healing mark[1], which she can then unleash to increase her reserves greatly.[15] Her chakra reserves are so great that she can protect, heal, and replenish the chakra reserves of thousands of people simultaneously, which she has showcased during Pain's assault[123] and the Fourth Shinobi World War.[124] She even showed her considerable reserves when she instantly healed and replenished Shikamaru, even though a Kyūbi-cloak enhanced 100H Sakura, as well as Naruto's own Kyūbi chakra, failed to heal him[73])

Range: Standard Melee Range physically. Several Meters with the Mystical Palm Technique.[65] Tens of Meters with shockwaves.[40][31][57][58][59][60] Kilometers with Remote Healing.[75][76][77][78] Interdimensional with the the Summoning Jutsu and Reverse Summoning Jutsu[125][126]

Standard Equipment:

  • Medical tools
  • Knockout drugs
  • Sleeping gas pellets
  • Antidotes for various poisons
  • Kunai
  • Shuriken
  • Flash Bombs
  • Smoke Bombs

Intelligence: Gifted normally. Extraordinary Genius as a Doctor.

A medical genius known the world over as the strongest Kunoichi[66], and the world's foremost medical expert.[51] She graduated from the Ninja Academy at the tender age of 6[8], with the average graduation age being 12 years old.[127] Tsunade was able to complete the Chūnin Exam's written test, which included questions involving Trigonometry, Kinematics, among other topics far too advanced for her age group.[128][129] The examinees were expected to either solve the questions using their own knowledge, or use a combination of their analytical abilities, powers of observation, special abilities, and intelligence gathering skills in order to cheat the correct answers, which was the true[128] purpose[129] of the exam. She was acknowledged for her abilities and skill by the likes of Hanzō, which is how she became one of the Sannin alongside Oorchimaru and Jiraiya.[130]. She has been credited as one of the principle reasons that led to Konoha's victory during the Second and Third Shinobi World War[30] thanks to her contributions both on the battlefield and in developing the "One Medic Specialist per 4-Man Cell" system, which greatly increased the survival rates of Shinobi cells.[131] She also founded the laws and principles that govern how all Medical Ninja operate.[33] She was considered one of the best candidates for the title of Hokage[30], and was actually picked for the position. As a Hokage, she was noted to be a very effective leader.[8] She also found out that Danzō Shimura was conducting shady dealings behind the scenes, and extremely wary of him and his organization, Root.[44]

She has performed many seemingly impossible feats in the medical field such as healing the psychological damage inflicted upon Sasuke and Kakashi by Tsukuyomi with a mere touch[66], fully healing Rock Lee's spinal injury[67] which was deemed a hopeless case[68], counteracted the effects of the Three Coloured Pills, which were eating away at his cells, using instructions from the Nara Clan's Sacred Medical Guide[69], analyzed and neutralized the poisons of renowned experts such as Chiyo of the Sand[5], and much more. She was also noted to be the only one capable of healing Orochimaru's arms[71][51][72], which had their soul sealed away and lost their ability to function, even though Orochimaru had the aid of a competent Medical Ninja such as Kabuto.[71] She is adept enough to perform complex autopsies, even on a cellular level, and determine the exact causes of death in addition to perfectly analyzing the properties of any attacks used on the victim.[132] She was able to synthesize artificial limbs from the cells of her grandfather, Hashirama Senju[133], which is something that took the likes of Orochimaru years to perfect. However, her crowning medical achievement is perhaps her development of the Creation Rebirth Jutsu, which goes a step beyond healing and actually regenerates all of her wounds by drawing on her chakra reserves to perform cellular division and heal almost any injury.[1]

She has the uncanny ability of being able to accurately diagnose someone's physical condition with a mere glance from several meters away.[51] She can also easily spot and identify specific ailments that are affecting her patients without the use of equipment.[52][5]

In addition to her medical expertise, she is also an elite Shinobi with decades of experience fighting against and commanding the respect of legends such as Hanzo, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and even the likes of Madara Uchiha.[33] She's a Taijutus expert who holds considerable skill in armed and unarmed combat. She was also able to teach and train Sakura to master her evasion techniques, which allowed her to gradually read someone's attack patterns and start dodging accordingly, even from blindspots.[34] Finally, she was awarded a 5 on her Databook entry's intelligence category, which makes her comparable to other geniuses such as Orochimaru, Kakashi, and Itachi.


Weaknesses: Using her Mitotic Regeneration technique consumes a lot of chakra, greatly accelerates her aging, and shortening her lifespan[1]. When she runs out of chakra, her transformation technique comes undone and she temporarily loses her youthful appearance.[108] Initially suffered from crippling Hemophobia due to her immense and constant guilt for not being able to save her lover and younger brother[134], but during her fight with Orochimaru, she was able overcome this.[1] She has unhealthy habits, such as severe gambling addiction and alcohol abuse. She's also very impatient and has a very short temper, and is extremely prone to fits of anger.[72] Katsuyu's Remote Healing is linked to Tsunade's chakra reserves, which renders Katsuyu's healing abilities useless if Tsunade is out of chakra.[135]

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

  • Ranshinshou (Body Pathway Derangement): Tsunade hits a particular point on the opponent's body and releases her chakra inside, disrupting and rearranging the nerve signals in the brain. The technique confuses the movements of the limbs, effectively paralysing them. For example, if someone is trying to move his right arm, a different body part would perform the same movement.
  • Sozo Saisei (Creation Rebirth): By using a large amount of chakra, Tsunade can enter a regenerative state that allows her to heal from fatal wounds quickly and even regenerate lost limbs and organs. However, the use of this technique shortens her lifespan.
  • Byakugo no Jutsu (Strength of a Hundred Technique): An advanced form of Tsunade's Creation Rebirth technique. She is covered in various tattoos and markings, giving her a general power increase and constant regenerative abilities.
  • Summon Katsuyu: Tsunade summons her giant slug, Katsuyu. It can spit acid or heal others by dividing it into many small slugs and transfer its chakra directly to them.
  • Chakra Transfer Technique: Tsunade can transfer her chakra to others, which powers up their abilities. It can bring Onoki's strengths up from Small City to Large Mountain level of power.
  • Enkaku Chiyu (Remote Healing): Through the use of Katsuyu's clones, she can heal and shield an entire city's worth of people, unlocking her In Fuin (Yin Seal) can even protect the villagers from an attack that was capable of leveling a town.
