A technique to display how weak a ninja is. Why? Every shinobi who has ever used this technique has either failed horribly or died... In Orochimaru's case, several times. Summoning dead ninja and showing off their power claiming it as your own strength? LMAO Strongest technique in the Narutoverse? I think not.

Exactly, it's not that ninja's own power but relying on the power of the dead.

Well its kinda a summoning tech. But is overused too much to be claimed as "own strength"

Oro has used it twice. He's still massively strong without it.

Kabuto failed. Orochimaru failed and died several times. 2nd Hokage.. c'mon he's been long dead and that meant he failed.

Same can be said for many other techniques.

Naruto power came from Kurama
Nagato's power came from Madara
Kakashi's power came from Obito

ect.

Exactly.
The strongest technique is a juubi/kurama TBB.
****ing otagakure fanboys.

Ownership on a skill is a very relative concept. Would you be prepared to go further down this logic and say that every shinoby who relys on techniques not created by them is weak?

For example how many shinobi make their own kunais? How many use Summonings? How many gather chakra from others? Is Kisame's Samehada his or do you consider it to be from someone else, considering he stole it from the previous owner?

Ownership is a very vague concept in what relates to the shinobi world. In the words of Kakashi; if you can use it, then it's yours.

Not to mention,
Obito's comes from Hashirama, Madara and Nagato
From all we know, most of the sages comes from juubi
Kabuto's from orochimaru
Sasuke's from itachi
On, and on..

On point my friend.

That makes kakashi a hypocryt, due to shifting what he was saying from the concept of ownership to the concept of theft.
He's not using their bodies, he's binding them through talismans, he doesn't own their bodies, control or not.

It is basically a technique like mostly any other summon. Its to help you in a fight.

i think it shows a lack of honor in the user but the jutsu itself is quite powerful and useful. i mean look at all the trouble it has caused in naruto, you can have an almost immortal army at your command

whenever the tech has been in use, that ninja has dominated. kabuto scared obito into an alliance with a flick of his wrist. oro killed the god of shinobi. kabuto made this war non onesided by himself. it took another entire army to bring down kabuto's armada. the reason why either kabuto or oro ever lost in a fight was because they didnt have edos at the time.

Kabuto failed. Orochimaru failed and died several times. 2nd Hokage.. c'mon he's been long dead and that meant he failed
all of them as far as we know werent using edos on the opponents who beat them. 2nd hokage declared it forbbidden and never used it when he died. wiht a flick of his wrist kabuto could have summoned madara to fight uchiha bros.

You must be mad that prime Kabuto solos all :y

Not to throw shots at you, but there will never be a Prime Kabuto. Or rather there isn't a Prime Kabuto anymore.
