"But you're saying that with this strange body, even an immature technique like Impure World Reincarnation can bring Lord Hashirama back with roughly half the strength he had in life?" Whether as one of Konoha's higher-ups or as Senju Tobirama's disciple, Danzō had a very clear understanding of Impure World Reincarnation.

Then, with the aid of the talismans, Danzō controlled Senju Hashirama's body and
