And that's the part we disagreed on. It's their combined power because one can't exist without the other
Well, since that is kind of irrelevant to the topic at hand how about we just drop it & move on? Lol
i dont care. edo tensie is one of kabuto and orochimaru's jutsu arsenal, they can summon them to help in a fight.
You not caring doesnt work my friend, also Kabuto needs to add in his sealing tags for every edo he summons. Giving kabuto his edos with their sealing tags is the exact same thing as madara starting with susanoo armored kurama already active. So no kabuto
cant use his edos whenever he wants because thats not how fights work. Ninja meet randomly in battle & kabuto/obito is a good example of this. Unless kabuto was prepared to fight madara then he would not add the tags into his edos thus rendering them ineffective.
So not only are the jutsus of kabuto's edos not his, therefore he cant solo madara, but he cant even summon & effectively tag all 30 edos before madara can summon & mount kurama.
Oro is a different concept. He would summon hashi not knowing that hashi would break free, thereby killing himself because hashi will turn on oro after madara.
If Kabuto commanding them to use an attack is not his power, how is Madara controlling the Kyubi to use a BD to create the BD Slash his power? You sound contradictory
I said that kabuto commanding them to use an attack is his power,
summoning & commanding are the traits of edo tensei.
