[Theory] Edo Hokage Immunity to IT, Possible Explanation ?

[SIR HERDERP PRESIDERP SDO]

There's still something amiss: Why did the RDS required the Tablet to activate the Mask.

 

[Andy Bogard]

Thank you everyone. =D

1) If you read SDO's theory which I have given in the OP, it says that Kaguya might have been divided into two parts - The Juubi and the RDS. It's possible that the RDS Kaguya was purified of the Juubi's power and lost the Third Eye. The Juubi Kaguya on the other hand is still impure and retains the Third Eye. Moreover, the RDS looks mummified.

2) Edo Tensei brings back the soul and traps it in a sacrificial body. Edo Tensei uses souls of the deceased which have life force. How can a soul lack Life force ? It makes no sense to me. Madara was an Edo. His soul had life Force. Which is why Rinne Tensei worked on him. Rinne Tensei is able to manipulate souls (in a way) which means that it must have life force.

1.) Ahh, more paralleling >_<
Seems a bit too complicated for a Kishi plot, but I won't knock it as impossible. Speaking of mummified, it could be the mummified brother of Hagoromo

2.)Their bodies are dead and the tree isn't trying to suck them up. What more did you want? Madara had Rinne tensei done on him which was the point. someone had to put his actual life into the puppet body he was stuffed in to

There's still something amiss: Why did the RDS required the Tablet to activate the Mask.

Could the Tablet be connected to the Shinju's fruit ? Could it have been used to seal something related to the Shinju's fruit ? These are some questions which are bugging me because Fruit < Kaguya < RDS < Tablet are somehow connected.

nice theory.
But if Kaguya was really Reaper death seal spirit then how come she contacted Madara within the God Tree?

IMO, there are two possibilities.
the Edo Hokages weren't affected because they are not "Living beings" anymore. I.T. affected each and every living being in the Narutoverse including cats.
And...
It's because their vessels are White Zetsus. We have seen Spiral Zetsu not affected by I.T.

But, Edo Tensei works on the Principle of souls. Which means that Souls have life force which could feed the Shinju. In the below panels, the souls appear as glowing blobs which show that they have life force.

Than why wasn't Orochimaru immune? Part of his soul, which his current body is relishing off of was trapped in RDS.

 

[Itachi Edo]

King of Lightning had this theory too on youtube. I think this one is solid, which is why I agree with him about Naruto. I think Naruto will go unaffected since his Yin Nine Tails was in the RDS. That's how Naruto and Sasuke can fight together, the rest of team 7 I think will get trolled, unless they have some crazy genjutsu resistance.

Great theory , that makes sense man

You mean his hands right maybe he will able to move them .

She or Hagoromo's brother could be the origin of RDS. Mostly Hagoromo's brother, because we know Hagoromo started the Senju/Uchiha bloodline, so his brother could have started the Hyuuga and the Uzumaki's bloodline (and we know that RDS is a sealing method used by the Uzumaki Clan, since it is related to the Noh Mask that was being held in the Uzumaki Temple).

Good theory.

I'm still having trouble thinking the Shinigami is a man, it's a Hannya Woman in myth, revealing it to be a man is like portraying the Statue of Liberty as male, but who knows.

To be honest, I also do.

But...

...there are a lot of unexplored possibilities, and Hagoromo's brother was left out of the storyline... "purposely"? Furthermore, Kaguya is appearing more frequently as being an Avatar of Madara's new powers.

I'm having a lot of doubts of her being the RDS right now.

 

[Floydical]

I don't think its because they are already dead as some people think, I think its because they are made of dust, lacking things like human organs.

Well that character in Rurouni Kenshin is not a Hannya Demon, he's only wearing a Hannya Mask to hide his disfigured face, the Shinigami on the other hand is a real Hannya Demoness. It's also worth to note that RDS is wearing a Kimono, unlike Hago or his bro who wear high collar Haori jackets.

 

[Zealous Sparks]

Nice theory! It would be an interesting possibility if Kaguya is indeed the RDS.

 

[Byakugan12x]

Amazing theory, Great job!

 

[The7thHokage]

Nice theory, bro, what an amazing job digging all that out ^_^

 

[The Sach]

I disagree with this theory, because I disagree with base of this theory, i.e. SDO's theory.
I see Kaguya more as RDS rather than as Juubi, because the most prominent reason is Shinju existed before Kaguya. Kaguya used shinju to gain power via fruit, so she can't be shinju.

What about Orochimaru then? His vessel is also a white Zetsu.

OT: That could be possible! Really nice Theory.

 

[BlacLord™]

I've always just thought it was because they were already dead.

This is it.

IT only affects those with "life energy", but since they're moving corpses, they don't have any life energy to be bound with hence the cracked appearance, symbolising a lack of vitality.

Simple as that. Your theory also doesn't account for the fact that part of Orochimaru's soul was in the stomach, yet he is still no better off than anyone else. And if the Hokages had somehow absorbed Kaguya's power, then it's only logical that they would be stronger in their Edo forms, than in life.

About your points, I will explain it via a new thread.
