The Third Coffin Might Have been Madara

[swirlyshark]

This is a theory of mine that has been bugging me!! now we see during the fight between Orochimaru and the Third hokage that he attempts to summon a third coffin but the 3rd stops it

and i dont believe that was minato because he used the Reaper Death Seal on himself

and kabuto later explains that if someone has had their soul sealed by the reaper death seal that the can not be brought back by the edo tensei

and we all know orochimaru was way much more knowledgeable than kabuto so would he really have been that stupid to try and summon the fourth or would have try and bring back madara?
sorry for it being so long

Or, Minato. But well kabuto never pulled out an Minato edo soooo probably Madara

 

[Da Best Ever]

this is really good and its possible it was madara and if it were and he was summoned hiruzen would have lost neg diff instead of extremely high diff

 

[bboyrevert]

I thought it was stated in the manga the coffin was the fourth. The reason it didn't open was because his soul was sealed in the RDS. I may be mistaken though.

 

[swirlyshark]

Or, Minato. But well kabuto never pulled out an Minato edo soooo probably Madara

see u got the right idea lol would the 3rd have chance of winning if madara came out to?

 

[The8thGateBeast]

It was minato, and hiruzen didn't stop the coffin it stoped by itself because minatos soul was trapped in the reaper death seal.

Kishimoto hadn't thought that far ahead.

It's what happens in series' that run for so long and continue on one plot.

It was Minato, and Hiruzen stopped the coffin. (Well, at that time anyway but of course, we now know it would have been impossible.)

If it was Madara, Naruto would have been a much shorter manga..

Yo,if minato couldnt been brought with edo how is he summoned now? Based on your logic..

Thank you lol and yes neg diff lmao

 

[MuerteMiAmigo]

i made a thread about this when madara first got revived and everyone yelled at me and called me stupid

orochimaru sliced open the belly of the shinigami duh lol didn't u see that in the manga where he freed them

 

[-immortal-]

it was said to be minato

 

[brownbear]

Kabuto states that oro was attempting to summon the fourth(minato) and failed due to his soul being rds'd. I think if anyone knows what oro was up to its kabuto.

Fun theory but I don't see it. Manga directly contradicts it.

 

[EliteKakashi]

Orochimaru stated himself that the 3rd coffin failed. Hiruzen simply thought he stopped it, but he didn't. This was because of Minato being in Shiki Fuujin.

 

[swirlyshark]

Maybe but who knows all I did was present my theory

 

[swirlyshark]

Orochimaru stated himself that the 3rd coffin failed. Hiruzen simply thought he stopped it, but he didn't. This was because of Minato being in Shiki Fuujin.

Yea true but maybe not lol

 

[Young Vongola]

Are you blind.....? In one of the scans you posted it blatantly states that Orochimaru's attempt to summon the Fourth failed because his soul was already in the belly of the Reaper.

 

[BlacLord™]

Orochimaru stated himself that the 3rd coffin failed. Hiruzen simply thought he stopped it, but he didn't. This was because of Minato being in Shiki Fuujin.

I don't think you understand...

Orochimaru used it with the intention of summoning Minato, yet he would surely know Minato's soul was in the Reaper.

It's a case of thinking outside of the manga; there's about 10 years in between that Hiruzen fight and Kushina telling us what happened that night, in reality. I doubt Kishimoto had planned 10-15 years worth of plot.

So he then later tried to cover his tracks by having Kabuto telling us why it failed.

 

[Made in Heaven]

It was Minato
