Senju Clan Wiki

Senju Clan was one of the founding members at the establishment of Konohagakure. The clan was remembered for their great influence in the philosophy and politics of Konoha. Senju were also known for their strong rivalry with the Uchiha Clan.

Senju Clan’s History

The Senju Clan are the olden progeny of Asura Ōtsutsuki, younger son of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki. They also share their bloodline with the Uchiha Clan who are the descendants of the elder son of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, Indra. The Senjus had persistent enmity with the Uchihas because of their ancestors. Asura Ōtsutsuki and his elder brother Indra Ōtsutsuki conflicted on account of different mindsets on maintaining peace in the world. Since Hagoromo chose Asura to follow his Sage’s path, Indra dissolved into acrimony and thus started the historic rivalry between the Senju Clan and  the Uchiha Clan. This feud continued for generations to generations and without any member of both the clans knowing the real reason behind the enmity. 

After a few decades, the head of the Senju Clan Hashirama Senju got tired of this unreasonable hatred and wanted to end wars so as to save the future generation from losing lives with this. Therefore he offered the hand of friendship to the head of the Uchiha Clan, Madara Uchiha whom he met as a friend without knowing his family identity. But Madara didn’t agree at first glance, so he wanted to have a final battle to win the hegemony over the Senju.

Hashirama agreed and defeated Madara, but instead of killing him he proposed to sacrifice himself to end the conflict. Madara was moved by Hashirama’s gesture and accepted the proposal of ending the conflict and establishing peace. They joined hands together and founded a hidden village named Konohagakure in the borders of the Land of Fire with the motto of establishing peace among the clans. With the passing time, many more clans allied with Senjus and resided in Konohagakure.

Hashirama acquired the position of first Hokage as selected by the villagers. This made Madara insecure of losing his clan’s reputation and the start of Senju Clan’s dominance. But Hashirama wanted all clans to have the same status in the village. He treated everyone equally and rendered official positions to the deserved candidates irrespective of their clan identity. 

The Senju Clan also served as the distant relatives with the Uzumaki Clan. Unlike with Uchiha, they always had friendly relations with Uzumaki. Senju and Uzumaki used to help each other from time to time and made their relations strong by tying knots of marriage between their children. 

Over the years, the number of Senju families decreased but their name and reputation is still marked in the village. The teachings and philosophy of the Will of Fire by the Senju clan is still inhabited by the villagers. Will of Fire is the teaching of Asura Ōtsutsuki that descended and spread by the Senju clan, which says that ” love is the key to peace”.
