Estabising why Edo tensi can't be used in a 1v1.

[Mitarashi]

I'm going to make this quick because I've got more important matters to attend to ( Like having an Asuna gif battle duh )

We all know what 'Soloing' is, yes?
1vmany, 1 vs 1 or more, just YOU against them, no-one else.
Now, how do you use Edo tensi?

You sacrifice a LIVING person, this is often over looked, people just assume Kabuto/Orochimaru have a troop of sacrifices following them with DNA ready for the jutsu.

If you're relying on someone else to finish your jutsu, it's not soloing.
Edo tensi isn't half as practical as people seem to think..

 

[Aya San]

U sir are correct

 

[Multiply]

I'm guessing someone solo'd your favorite character using edo tensei in their arsenal...

 

[Made in Heaven]

Except kabuto would be able to summon them freely from then on

 

[FemmeFatale]

Which is why the Sannin were/are equal in part 1. Give anyone of them prep and it GG for the other two

Its still someones jutsu so its technically no different to fireball jutsu. The only different is that dead ninja come out. I should call them OP projectiles that also spit out jutsu...

How does Tsunade prep anything... Tsunade is still fodderized, given any amount of time she needs.

 

[VongolaX]

Actually no, because human summonings wouldn't count either.

Like nagato and Obito using the six path technique

No, I'm just sick of people over-rating edo.

Sure, after he's sacrificed someone.

O.T
Anyone can speed blitz Kabuto/Orochimaru and stop the edo jutsu easily.

 

[Aya San]

In 1v1 it's only you vs the other, should be obvious. Bringing an alive person to prepare a jutsu is forbidden

 

[Mitarashi]

Those aren't different people, that's just Nagato/Obito in 6 bodies.
It's a hive mind.

 

[Sir Blades]

False to some degree, it serves the same purpose as a regular summoning. Now if you think that summons are also not part of a ninja's abilities then i don't know what to tell you.

But they aren't aliive thats my point, Its like any other jutsu since its not actually the alive shinobi fighting

So is he going to summon in someone to sacrifice?

He needs to sacrifice someone to make an edo, that doesn't count as soloing and I can't really think of any time he's going to find another body in a 1v1.

This makes no sense. You're trying to say we shouldn't use it because it requires time. Kabuto and Orochimaru had their prep time, so they have summons prepared. People don't count edo tensie because their favourite is going down. ET still part of the user's power.

 

[3MESSIAH]

yes,but he will do the sacrifices before combat and in combat it`s just a clap of hands and TA-DA!!! edo tensei is there.

so yes it can be used in single combat.

one does not polish and fix his weapon amidst battle...he does it before

 

[Gdamon]

i agree to an extent...

you can't solo if you have an immortal army with you...

Edo tensei requires live people for sacrifices, in 1v1 bringing in more people isn't really a 1v1. That's what he means u_u

What you lack to understand is that preparations can be made before an encounter, just like a ninja always has kunais and shurikens in their pouches, Kabuto for example already has edo's at his disposal, either from the labs full of inmates or random ninja he has chosen for edo. Orochimaru is another example, edo was summoned without the need of killing a person and doing a ritual in the middle of a battle. Now try to argue with that.

When I say 1v1 I don't mean Anon vs anon and 50 randoms behind him so that he can sacrifice them.

Let's assume Orochimaru is jumped in some random forest, he doesn't have a slave following him so that he can EDO him, but people will still assume that 'EDO solos' ect.

1v1 no prep = Kabuto/Oro just got out of bed, they don't have time to go and sacrifice someone.
Prep = Edo.
