![]() The Fourth Hokage seems to have marked his head on the monument for the Flying Thunder God Technique, as he teleports to its location on two separate occasions.During the Konoha Crush, the Third Hokage's face cracks, giving those who see it a bad omen. ![]() Scenes set during earlier periods of Konoha's history sometimes erroneously depict more faces on the Hokage Rock than existed at that point in time.Despite the increasing number of faces, the Hokage Residence is always right in the middle underneath them.The monument is similar to Mount Rushmore, which features sculptures of the heads of four United States presidents.At some unspecified future point, the Hokage Rock is badly damaged. In the years after the Fourth Shinobi World War, Konoha expands to the plateau above the monument, with the village's new skyscrapers seen towering above it. In Kakashi Hiden, the Sixth Hokage's face is added to the Hokage Rock before he even agrees to accept the responsibilities of the office, something that Naruto complains is confusing.įor the first few decades of the village's history, the Hokage Rock is left mostly untouched, being used only to house the village's archives and protect its villagers during times of attack. The anime suggests it doesn't actually take too long, as the Stone Carver adds first Danzō Shimura's face and then Kakashi Hatake's face to the monument prematurely, in turn forcing him to remove their faces once they are not officially given the position. Īdding a Hokage's face to the monument apparently takes time, as the Fifth Hokage's face is not added until some time during the timeskip. Being such an icon makes it a prime target for pranks, with both Naruto Uzumaki and, years later, Boruto Uzumaki defacing it in order to gain attention. The Hokage Rock is easily the most identifiable feature in the village, such that when the village is destroyed during Pain's Assault, only the presence of the Hokage Rock (undamaged by the destruction) confirms to others that the rubble was once Konoha. It was envisioned by Hashirama Senju as a symbol that the Hokage would always watch over the village. The Hokage Rock ( 火影岩, Hokage-iwa) is a mountain overlooking Konohagakure that has all the faces of the Hokage carved into the stone. ![]()
