Re: Madara's identity and 6th coffin mystery Solved....
Chapter 527 answered the questions
you know what i liked about this chapter??
it solves the madara/tobi mystery for me!!
i never believed he was real madara until now......why, because the shell of his former self thing (i thought that there was no way for his mind and body to act without a soul)
but thats obviously not the case as chap. 527 proved that cuz samui,atsui and darui were still concious.....
so.....to me that means madara is tobi-tobi is madara
and madara's soul is somehow trapped in the pure world....(some awesome 1st hokage sealing tech. or sumthin prob. the cause of this.......he danm sure wasn't beatin with wood no jutsu and is seen with huge scroll in his famous panel vs madara)
this is why madara needed nagato to use gedo on him!!!!!
and yes this also explains the 6th coffin.......if his soul is trapped in the pure world them kabuto would have the capability of summoning him......even tho he still existed........according to the rules of edo-tensai as we currently know them
and since madara is only a shell of his former self and edo summons come back with powers fully in tact, the edo would technically be stronger.......but madara still has his own advantage as he knows his self better than anyone
that would explain their reluctancy to fight one another and madara's reaction
so to wrap it up.......
madara is madara....tobi is madara
and sixth coffin is madara
you have a very good theory here!
but before i go through my own details, i'd like you to personally answer the following questions:
1. do you have a bit of suspicion who tobi is right now?...still "not being madara"?
2. do you believe in what madara's deception could bring in as ideas in your exemplary theory? tobi-madara's mask? why wear it? tobi-madara's changeable personalities from then hereon this 527 chap?
3. why show himself as madara to "kisame" only? and where is kisame?
4. edo tensei's explanation of the pure world is still questionable. during harashima-madara fight, there was no edo tensei in place for the 1st or madara's disposal. i mean, madara could have been killed "physically" but his spiritual self was a success against the great harashima -- here i mean, he got harashima's dna in a "bodily defeat". did madara know such a forbidden jutsu?
now going back to your 6th coffin theory...
mine was 1. so6p and 2. madara
...and i repeat, so6p could be edo tensei "if and only if" kabuto got the access to the sage's tomb and got the opportunity to get dna samples from preserved bones.
then...here is yours, madara could be edoed as well provided that madara died and kabuto accessed his dna.
---*an important observation would be...why would tobi-madara be rattled in the sight of an "edo-madara"? tobi-madara as a shell of his former self (my opinion) is still more powerful than an edo madara. this is so because, kabuto will be the one to control the summon. tobi-marara and edo-madara would probably engage in a talk no jutsu fight (lol) and eventually edo madara's soul be released again. should kabuto twitches edo madara's mind, tobi-madara would really easily dispose of an edo madara (look at zabuza and kakashi fight...)
---tobi-madara and edo madara would be "under a terrible space/time jutsu not known in the Naruto manga world" should they fight and create contact with themselves..."*no two identical identities would be able to exist at the same space at the same time*"(a basic scientific concept") - this was my premise why tobi-madara was hesitant to engage kabuto and was forced to ally with the serpent...even with the rinnegan-- i believe.
harashima could contain a bijuu---this is assumed. if he could seal...remains a wait and see theory...probable assumption as well...
if madara soul was sealed..say with an SF type of jutsu only the 1st had, i guess madara couldn't be summoned--right?
tobi-madara's desire to get "the reincarnation jutsu" from nagato is still a query. we saw a nagato rinne tensei (and was explained) to be able to bring the dead back to life within "a limited time frame" -- after the death- only.
tobi-madara would be referring to something else here...and one of kishi's cards and aces....
lastly, 527 showed atsui and samui's still alive after their souls were pulled out, cut free and cursed. psyche power was still intact with them. but the chap showed they were already helpless. they were just babbling until their souls were sealed.
your theory will be "magnified" should darui manage to pull this fight off after his soul was pulled out, cut free and cursed.
it is an honor to be invited to this great thread!
