The Yondaime Hokage, also known as "The Yellow Flash of Konoha" (木ノ葉の黄色い閃光, Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō), was the brave Ninja who was responsible for sealing the Kyūbi no Yōko (Nine-tailed Demon Fox) inside Naruto. Some say he was the greatest ninja Konoha ever produced. He is remembered for his heroic acts through the monument which overshadows Konohagakure. Before he performed the seal, which would not destroy the Demon Fox but only himself, he said that he did not want Naruto to be viewed as the container of a monster but as a hero who saved the Leaf Village from annihilation (the demon fox's soul still lives inside Naruto). He was a student of Jiraiya's, and later the sensei of Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, and Rin. Another speculation has been that he could be related to Naruto due to the blond hair and blue eyes they both possess and the similarities in their personalities as noted by Jiraiya. Further, during the confrontation between Uchiha Itachi and Hatake Kakashi, Itachi refers to Naruto as Yondaime's legacy.

Trivia:

-His hairstyle is somewhat reminiscent to Cloud Strife's of Final Fantasy VII.
