LegionZero wrote: Proof? He bit off a small piece of flesh and implanted it. It took years before he awoke that power.

As an Edo Tensei he had a large lob of Hashirama flesh, easily two orders of magnitude bigger, and awoke the power easily two orders of magnitude earlier. LegionZero wrote: Ashura debunks that theory because he didn't have the Rinnegan despite having been chosen to continue ninshu and receiving Hagoromo's power. Only in the Anime. The Manga specifies no such thing. And i think it's clear that the Anime is filled with plot holes. In the Manga, Ashura awakens his own power. In the Anime he doesn't do anything remotely resembling that.
