Right, and in which chapter does Suigetsu refer to Hashirama as the God of Shinobi?

And obviously it's not a title that's just passed through to every next dude or girl who becomes Hokage. But that doesn't mean that only person can have the title.

You would do well to remember that the Sage of the Six Paths has been referred to as the God of Shinobi as well. I don't suppose you want to try to argue that Hashirama is stronger then him?
