Obito stated the sword he possess now was sword of nonuboku Which Sage of six paths
also Obito stated that sword posses hermit's strong desire and the sword of soul
So The sage of six paths could be brought back then?
Thats the one thing I hate about this chapter, why introduce the sword if its just going to get snapped a panel later. Wish we would have seen it hit something.
the sword is a plot device. to advance the plot somehow later.
we dont know if it has a significance like the hermit's revival or something as it is referred to as the sword of soul, whatever.
