The HIGHEST Kill Count in Naruto? 

Zabuza was such a badass he just had the misfortune of coming well before Shippuden otherwise he would have had his own mech for sure.

How Kabuto and Obito missed this list is astounding especially Obito who possibly is right after Kaguya

One thing you forgot about Nagato is that he has used Chaotic Shinra Tensei before, as stated by Konan, meaning he most likely caught a LOT more bodies.

I’m sure kabuto has the highest kill count since his one jutsu killed thousands in the great ninja war

I think you all know Minatos legendary dishwashing scene. That dish gave Minato more trouble then killing ten iwa shinobi. And when you remember this scene, he perfectly cleaned the dish in a few seconds. So you know how much of a problem an iwa shinobi is to Minato

I would like to propose that orochimaru's kill count is much higher for specifically the curse mark subjects. The sound village 4, minus kimimaru, were trapped with 50-100 other potential subjects that could have survived the initial curse mark. The sound village 4 were just the only ones to fully transform into curse mark level 2 mode, subsequently they kill all the other subjects. Putting orochimaru's curse mark kill count closer to one thousand.

When you realize that Orochimaru was scared of a 14 year old.

For Sasori, you didn't mention the fact that when he got the coral that's inside his chest, he fought an entire nation wich probably would have been quite a few more kills

For Nagato, would you also count the people loyal to Hanzo that we are told we're killed when he took over the Hidden Rain?

The real killer is Kishimoto. He made Itachi, Obito and Sasuke kill all those people.

Black Zetsu is a real menace, imagine manipulating the father of all Uchiha and causing war between the two brother's decendants, generations after generation and making the Senju (The clan of love) to the Clan of war. This Zetsu managed to change the stone tablet so the Uchihas think that killing gives them ms, pretends to be Madara's ally and then backstab him. Black Zetsu lowkey planned the whole series out.

I mean if we're going to get technical than Obito deserves an honorable mention. With the genjutsu on Yagura that caused some long term death, the uchiha clan massacre (that's a lot of women, children and maybe elderly killed... ffs he killed his own grandma then), the few blood mist ninja after he saw Rin killed by Kakashi, the Kyubi rampage in Konoha was his doing, the manipulation of the Akatsuki... he may not have done much direct killings, but he is responsible for a whole lot in the grand sceme of things.

You can never forget the OG Kabuto Yakushi, someone who came from nothing to killing 1000 of shinobis and then using them as an Edo and than Reviving Madara who killed many Shinobi in the 4th Great Ninja War, Kabuto takes the number 1 spot for Sure.

And Madara's kills mentioned are just during the 4th Great Shinobi War. It doesn't even start from the multiple Adult Senju he killed as a child and everyone else throuought his life.

Despite murdering hundreds if not thousands of people... Naruto called Obito the coolest. 😎

Obito controlling the Mizukage is dope lore, Obito was up to all kinds of shit.

Great video but you forgot also a couple of people: Chiyo: she created a lot of poisons, fought in the 2nd and perhaps even 3rd war and wiped out an entire castle. Kabuto: he helped Orochimaru with his experiments on people and killed hundreds just for his Edo Tensei army Obito: fought in the 3rd war, killed the Hidden Mist ANBU group, used Kurama to greatly damage Konoha, mind controlled Yagura, manipulated Nagato and the Akatsuki, started 4th war etc. Truly the coolest guy. Black Zetsu: based on his account he started the feud between Sage's sons which lasted ca. 1000 years, started 1st, 2nd and 3rd world wars, created Akatsuki etc.

sasori would have more than a thousand , when he was dying and thought granny chiyo will also die he said'' over the years i have killed hundreds, thousands of people and she will be no different" THOUSANDS so number could be higher like 2k or 3k ( he also distoryed a palace in a filler in shippuden )

Deidara must have a ridiculous kill count too, he was going to casually nuke the hidden sand and IIRC he destroys a village “onscreen” in one of the light novels. So was he probably wiping out entire villages on a regular basis.

I can see Itachi performing Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu when he slaughtered the Uchiha Clan.

Sakumo should probably be on the list since his reputation as ninja was said to be excel the sannin, and we know the leaf loves bloodying their hands and they were at war. Who knows how much the WhiteFang killed to making shinobis from other villages to recognise him. When Kakashi was fighting a stone shinobi using his fathers sword, the stone shinobi got scared and said if he is white fang. Even the Yellow Flash, the guy who killed countless of shinobi acknowledged him.

Madara definitely has the highest kill count out of any human. At least 20,000+ in one day. Not even considering he was the leader of a clan in the waring states period.

This video kept me company while I was in a bad place mentally, and made me remember all the good times I’ve had while watching naruto thank you

The fact naruto only tackled ptsd with photo and kakashi, we were robbed of a great story line. Dark tones of AOT would be amazing here

Unrelated to this specific topic, but what if Rin got control of Isobu? like for whatever reason Madara didn't manage to get a seal on Rin's heart, and everything plays out the same until the point where Rin normally commits seppuku on Kakashi's chidori she doesn't… assuming Obito still shows up, or even if he doesn't, this would drastically change the timeline of Minato's team 7

Love how Zabuza hated how violent the Mist was but was literally so much more violent than the rest that the rest cut back on it

Quick Question. What part of the eye of the moon plan needs money? Like I get Nagato wanted matching cloaks for the akatsuki but besides getting a half decent tailor and paying the hidden rain's taxes why would he need cash?

"Coming in at #1 we have a war criminal" - Nick 2023 🤣🤣🤣 also funnily enough that doesn't narrow it down that much

Kishimoto love for the Uchiha was too much.

I think Kabuto would have a huge body count, not just with Edo Tensai but he also pledged 100 human sacrifices to Manda. He had to have done hundred of kills with his spy work and experimentation under Orochimaru

16:42 (in horror prophecy voice) the souls of those bad men won't forgive you

Love the content Nick! Thank you for being the best anime youtuber that doesn't get involved in drama.

What about the Third Mizukage? He started the Blood Mist Village years before Yagura.

surprised you didnt mention the kills Orochimaru had from Edo Tensei since that jutsu requires a live sacrifice

I feel like you should add Obito to the honorable members list at least since he started the fourth great shinobi war and probably killed as many people as Madara especially as the ten tails jinchuriki.

Danzo fans: Sasuke killed Danzo. Sasuke fans: Who cares?

- I figured it would be Sasori as he once mentioned that he took over an entire country. I've always wanted them to make a movie just about that, it would be amazing watching him invading a nation with his hundred puppet technique.

Kawaki is about to be added to the list soon.

Pretty sure madara made all these beasts on the list blush with his feats in just the war alone

but you only counted madaras war victims, what about the before that, he was raised in the warring states period, hes bound to have at least twice the number we assumed also i can mention hashirama and tobirama in there, pretty sure they have more kills than zabuza

Kishimoto has the highest body count. He wrote the story.

'' Genin werent sent to great ninja war 4'' Naruto, literally single handedly carrying the allied shinobi forces after his arrival: and i took that personally

Love the video and keep up the great work nick

The crazy thing about zabuza is he wasnt even enrolled in the academy he enttered the graduation ceremony without permission

The avg size of an active fighting battaltion is closer to 500-600. Perhaps logistics might be bigger. Just my experience. Though the 1000 count is more common for training units or in this case the academy.

Orochimaru would probably eagerly agree with you while laughing under his breath

I watched your hashirama sage mode video and was surprised that you or anyone in the comments mentioned that hashiramas sage mode could be monkey sage mode as they do exist since hiruzen s summoning was a monkey called enma and the 4 tailed beast son goku in the manga once states that he is the monkey king of the sage monkeys which could be what hashiramas sage mode is

I feel like Gara should be somewhere on here... maybe in 11 or 10th... idk if he has a confirmed number, but we definitely see him kill, and kankuro and temari are definitely afraid of him as if they have seen him kill before for even the slightest annoyance

There is one thing I was always wondering about becomeing chunin and jonin. Maybe you have some answers and could make video about it. When we see exam that happens 2? 4? (I dont remember) times a year from all villages only 1 ninja pass. Even if we assume all ninja who came to last exam would pass every time there is 40 max chunins per year for all 5 villages (plus some smaller villages) per year. And when you said in Konoha could be 20k chunins and jonins it just came back to my mind, how would it be possible? Are there other ways to became more than genin?

While this doesn't affect your estimations or placements, I think the threat of the Uchiha coup was less about them succeeding and more about it weakening the village, both physically and in the eyes of the other villages

Nick definitely forgot Hidan, whom we don't have a concrete number for but can safely assume he has killed more people than at least Zabusa. Granny Chio probably also has a couple of kills under her belt before Tsunade came in to safe the day. Lastly it feels a little bit like cheating not to include Nagatos reborn kills. He only revived them after Naruto talknojutsued him so I feel like the resurrection is mostly on Naruto.

Regarding Shibai: isn't "ascending to an higher plane" basically what Hagoromo did when he "died"? His body gave up, but he's just as alive now and arguably even more powerful now that he's basically the pure land itself given intellect and freewill...

Zetsu should be #1. He manipulated Indra into warring against Ashura and his descendants for a Thousand years.

Didn't anime balls deep just do this exact video?

Also I can't wait to see when you 500k keep up the good work

i like how Animeballs deep and NCHammer made a video, with the same topic, in the same 24 hours

How long did it take Kona to make the ocean of paper bombs

The way you keep making content out of everything you were given. Is crazy I can’t believe you keep doing it

The Second Shinobi War was mainly amongst Konoha, Suna, Iwa, and Ame. It's not clear if Hanzo and Mifune fought that only one time or if the Land of Iron was also involved in the war in some capacity,

These videos make me so happy lol I love them and you

You had me sold at the very beginning when you said “ain’t no friendship or forgiveness to be found, just these hands” 0:15

I wonder how many leaf Shinobi are in a battalion especially since the hidden leaf mainly uses squads of four ninja most of the time.

I know it’s not a lot more for orochimaru but I’m pretty sure he killed the vessels he was done with after he switched bodies I don’t know if they die automatically after the jutsu but I’m sure he won’t let them live 😅

@NCHammer23 Hidan and kakuzu both essentially live to kill and kabuto must have had bodies on him too

zabuza hit the killua hunter exam 2 but didnt stop

I almost feel like I watched this video yesterday, but it had more of a curry flavor to it.

Before watching the video. Im going to guess some of the top options. 3rd raikage (he killed was fighting 10k people when he died. He didnt kill all of them but im sure he didnt stop killing until he died. I say at least 3k for him) Minato killed 1k shinobi at once durying the 3rd war (man, that war had casualties) The zetzu army killed thousands of shinobi. Chiyo?

13:20 I've made a hobby of finding moments when Nick has a mini stroke. I like them they give character

You like answering question about murders in anime? You've got my full attention!!

You should do a top 10 people in Naruto who caused the most deaths, they wouldn’t have to be directly responsible either. For example the 2nd hokage, he created reanimation which caused lots of deaths because every reanimation is brought back to kill and you have to sacrifice people for reanimations, also madara was reanimated so that would add to the deaths caused by the 2nd hokage.

Always ❤ your content. Ur personality adds a uniqueness to it 💯

Hashirama is up there, not quite Madara but he went through the waring states and had to put other clans to heel in order to create konoha.

"I'm not going so you better be" is the greatest line I've ever heard 😂😂

@Sasori: He also wiped out an entire country with his Red Secret Technique. @Nagato: The Hidden Rain ninja told Jiraiya that Pain killed Hanzo's entire family, friends and associates which is surely at least a couple dozens if not hundreds of people. He also presumably killed many members of the Hanzo's remnant. @Itachi: I doubt that the Uchiha clan had that many fighters because that would make the clan ridiculously big. @Madara: Madara also fought during the Warring States Period where he also surely gathered a huge body count. He also manipulated various events.

Okay I’ve spent days changing the story of Naruto and I want opinions on it, if anyone’s interested pls link me somewhere to send it, read it, and let me know what you think. I’m still adding small details and I’d appreciate all feedback

For some reason I love this video 😂 Something nobody covered

i agree with Kakashi having high body count because he was thrown into the war battlefield frontline since what 12?13? or even younger because he was made a genin at 5. being in team minato who obviously was an important konoha jounin that time made him deal with even more missions/battles thus killed more people than average team. and then he was made captain at very young age leading in war battlefied - so even more people killed. added with his 10 years as ANBU went for countless assasination missions.he was given the nickname "cold-bloded kakashi" during his anbu years. and that was ONLY before he even become leader of team 7 with naruto,sasuke and sakura.

A regular portion of ramen contains around 7 grams of salt, which is really high considering the recommended daily intake. Excessive salt intake is strictly tied to heart diseases, which is the most common death, 1/5 people die that way. Konoha has something around 80.000 people and every year on average 1% of the population dies of "natural" causes (old age, disease, ecc). So every year 800 people die in Konoha of natural causes, of which 160 of heart disease. Multiply for around 40 years in business and you get 6.400 people. That's the kill count for the man missing in the list, Ichiraku the Silent Killer of Konoha.

@NCHammer23 would of Obito be able to use the susanoo because he had a rinnagan and a ms, or would he not been able to because of the ms/rinnagan being different and not from the same sharingan/rinnagan source?

JIraiya has the highest "body count". My man gets around.

I'd like to point out that I believe when Naruto is being explained the Blood Mist tradition, he's also told that Zabuza wasn't even a student when he killed the class.

What about that place jugo was in? All of the other prisoners had curse mark so orochimaru should have a lot more kills

its really weird that 3rd raikage died at all from chakra loss. Nick assumes he was fighting for his life for 3 days straight hence the chakra consumption death... but to fight for 3 days, against 10k ppl, he really cannot be fighting for his life. idr how long the 4th war was but if you highballed it to 4 days, naruto ran out of chakra like two or 3 times and had avenues to refill or not use it for a while. madara and hashirama faught for about 24-48 hours and exhausted all of hashiramas chakra... save one wood clone, and the ninetails was removed from the battle pretty early on. for raikage to have fought for 3 days for his life that entire time , other than the fact he can casually speed blitz through large sections of 10k ppl, he shouldve died from chakra loss a lot sooner. the more likely thing, is he casually took his time to personally beat ppl to death while he simply couldnt die. cause all he has to do is keep up the chakra cloak since no one in that 10k likely have the AP to hurt him. like taking a relatively active grown man in his early 30s against a bunch of 2 yr olds. like 2k 2 yrs olds. ya he could fight for his life and slaughter a few of them and exhaust himself to the point he dies but whats more likely is he was using such a little amount of chakra that he was actually able to survive that long.

"That was a mission, he gave himself.." 🤣

Minato went from "The Yellow Menace of the 3rd great shinobi world war" to "The Way of the House Husband" REAL QUICK! That's what red heads do to you, on god on god.

Do a top 5 on highest CONFIRMED body count manga only

I for sure thought you would put granny chino in this video

Imagine Boruto death count when he decides he wants to leave earth and cosume chakra fruits and on his way out he destroys earth.

Had a weird thought the other day. So the Otsuksuki live on via karma seals and inhabiting new bodies right? What If Kaguya had done this? Does that mean the gedo statue is actually the body of some 14 year old from some far off planet? It's just her corpse almost utterly devoid of Chakra. So is that her or someone she possessed.? Who's body is it really 🤔

Didn't the third Raikage fight an army of people for 3 days or something like that?

obito killed a lot of people also, he manipulated yagura into killing people, the uchiha cu, working for the akasuki, 4th great ninja war. he had to have killed over 10k people at least

Should do a video on 10 Ninja (not from the leaf) that you think should have a Flee On Site order and why

You should do a video explaining the crystal style used by Goran

Kakashi didnt have everyone knowing his name because he gave out cupcakes. So it is also a picture at how many he offed. Another great video thanks NCHammer

No Obito, or Granny Chiho?

Seems like you an anime balls deep had the same idea lol loved both videos

I would've loved to have seen Yabuza later in the series, with the same fighting style. Reason being is, he would've been a lot more powerful.

So, imma try guessing who's gonna be on the list. I believe that Minato or Itachi are gonna be very high on the list (if we are going off confirmed kills on the show). Maybe Madara, even though we don't see or know of him killing that many people. The legendary Sannin might also be a good candidate for what happened in the forbidden rain. We might also see Hidan on here for obvious reasons. Also Zabusa, depending on how many classmates he had although that's very unlikely. Pain/Nagato killing all of Konoha is also straight up there with killing all of Konoha. Also, of course, Kurama and the eight tails are good picks, depending if we are counting tailed beasts or not. Granny Chio probably since we don't know exactly how many people she killed before Tsunade stepped in but it's probably a lot. Lastly, the third Raikage should also be on here since his feat can probably be compared to Minatos if it isn't grater. (I mean the one who fought 3 days straight and died of chackra depletion, not 100% if that really was the third). But yea, nr.1 is probably gonna be Minato or Madara. Maybe Itachi but even though he'll probably be ranked relatively high, I doubt the Uchiha had enough people to make nr.1. Depending on how/if you count him or not, the Raikage is also a strong contender for nr.1. I don't know the population of Konoha but depending on that Nagato is pretty sure at least top 3. That's my guesses, let's see how right or wrong I was Edit:Spelling

Hanzo is slept on fr. His lore and scaling goes kinda crazy

Love the video. Side note- I don’t think Minoto beat 1k shinobi from the stone. I think in the manga it says he got there when there was 50 to 60 left. Then he killed the lot lol
