That is all subjective and neither to be confirmed.

As for Madara with one eye, he clearly absorbed the God tree which was a justu created by Rikudou Obito.

There's no such thing as a half and half ability from one eye, it's a fanfiction that people made up.

That jutsu to absorb the God Tree isn't preta :|

There are such things as jutsu that amplify with both eyes

i.e. Limbo

He didn't have his second Rinnegan. Nobody has displayed Preta with a single Rinnegan (Sasuke's functions as a set), plus he counted on his Limbo to hit Naruto, and by the time he realized it would fail he was already hit.

EDIT: Didn't meant to say Madara can't perform it with one Rinnegan, it's just that he used Limbo instead of Preta - why absorb when you can neutralize your enemy?

Naruto surprised Madara with his new power and the level of power that jutsu contained was probably a little much at the time before he absorbing the tree. He was also in the middle of healing himself, so that might've had something to do with it.

1. Naruto overwhelmed and surprised him with his power, and he was not in good condition plus he was in the process of healing himself so those two factors likely affected his ability to absorb it.

Why he didnt absorb it?

For me maybe it bcus he lacked the other Rinnegan eye and also plot. Logically speaking even if he couldnt absorb it he still can dodge it completely, but plot want him to be hit by Naruto's attack. If someone say he couldnt absorb Senjutsu, I dont think so. Madara managed to absorb Hashi's Senjutsu without any effect and when he became JJ his body was full with Six Path Senjutsu, thats mean absorbing Yoton FRS Completely wouldnt give him a problem like becoming a stone or toad.

It can go many ways bcus we doesnt get clear cut answer.

He lacked his other rinnegan and but it also may have being too much. When he absorbed a normal senjutsu RS he said it was a bit too much

I actually have a theory that he didn't mean it was too much in a sense that there was too much chakra, but in a sense that there was too much going on at the time for him to not use the Rinnegan

Kishimoto didn't want him to use it because he wanted to show how OP Naruto became by using that FRS and dodging limbo. If he wanted I'm sure he could have he was a Juubi Jin for freaks sake.

I haven't made a thread about it yet actually, it's just something that I thought of and I'm currently in the process of getting more intel about the situation (whenever I decide not to be lazy and reread the whole fight, and get the viz version) it's mostly due to the fact that in another version I read he said something along the lines of "alright that's it..." And from manga I've read, when somebody says that, they mean it's too much going on than they could handle while holding back some of their power

The "Can't Absorb Sage Chakra" argument is inherently BS. Pain was absorbing SM Rasenshurikens without any downside. He only turned to stone once he started absorbing pure Nature Energy from Naruto.

Madara likely used some Outer Path or Juubi Jin ability to absorb the Shinju, as it was not a pure Chakra Construct but an extent of the Juubi.

Why he couldn't absorb the Rasenshuriken is anyones guess. My guess (Which is right) is that he didn't have time to absorb it, or else couldn't absorb chakra Ninjutsu with only one eye.

I think for once in his life, madara was actually overwhelmed. Don't think he had the time to even think about even absorbing it. Also, a little bit of plot.

I personally believe it was too much chakra, just like how onokis jinton was too much to absorb.

U might want to reread. Oonoki's jinton was never too much for Madara. In one case Madara let himself be hit and the second time the Kages came up with a plan to keep him from absorbing it

Than why did madara say he wouldn't be able to absorb it in time so he used Ps?

He was still recovering from the damage he received from Gai, otherwise he could probably absorb it, it wasn't plot.
