Can you use the 8 GATES if you are a Edo ?

[rikuxreborn]

Me and my sister had a discusion a few hours ago about the Edo tensei and the 8 gates, i dont think you can use all 8 gates since you need to release both life and death gates in order to use the 8 gates. Ive seen a couple of threads starting this Gai 8 gates edo tensei world solo..

Would a edo tensei be able to release 8 gates? my answer was no way, an edo is a spirit in a DEAD body, how the hell can you release death and life gates, in a non living body? makes no sense to me. what are your thoughts on this matter since im kinda confused... :eww:

technically you can still mould chakra if your an edo so that also means u have chakra paths and therefore have gates. so that is an argument for being able to do it. on the other hand it wouldn't be the users own body, and a taijutsu specialist like guy has perfect control of his body since he knows it so well, since its his own body, but an edo body isn't his so he doesn't know that body well enough to make full use of the gates in my opinion but this is a manga at the end of it all, I have a feeling kishi would have allowed guy to do it if he were an edo

Nooooooo but he can open 7th for a unlimited time I think if not well in edo its not needed since normal gai was always a beast in my eyes just till now ppl started worrying not real fans like me since day 1

Why wouldn't he?

I think he would be able to use 8 gates but not as effective because his body lose shape and limbs by power he produce.

Maybe its the reason why Gai will survive? There is 3 Edo tensei users at the field and ET Gai could dance with Madara forever. Gai could do like 100 elephants and kill Madara. Gai's survival is like deleting one plothole but getting another.

Edo Gai would be op. I guess he could still use it the chakra paths are still there, but his power would be decreased due to Edo Tensei and using Night Moth/Gai would take huge time to regenerate since a Planetary Rasengan took Muu out of comission for quite some time.

Edo's can obviously still mold chakra and use techniques. Eight gates is simply a unique use of chakra that harms the body. It makes logical sense for an edo Gai to be able to go 8 gates.

I was wondering the same thing.

Imagine edo gai with 8 gates...unlimited chakra...immortal...ultimate solo king.
