Full Edo Tensei Analysis

STOP!
Before you read, if you're a Fanboy of any kind shape or form don't bother reading this.


1. Classification

-Let's begin at the simple part. Edo Tensei is classified as a Summoning jutsu (Engish name, Summoning: Reanimation). As you can see

By Orochimaru

You must be registered for see images

By Kabuto

You must be registered for see images

As you can see In Image 1 and 2 it's said to be Summoning.

2. How it works.

If you have any questions on how it works please click the link below and read the chapter and stop spewing you're own speculations.




3. Preperations and multiple Uses.

People will claim that this jutsu needs preperation time and should not count as part of anyone's arsenal. However this is not the case, yes the jutsu needs prep time beforehand to use, but only a One time prep.

Let me explain (or hopefully you read the chapter link I posted).
- Instead of blood like any other summoning the caster needs a specific amount of the physical body or DNA.
- Target's soul must reside in the pure world. (Hence why those sealed could not be brought back to life; ex: all previous Hokage).
- A living sacrifice is needed to become the vessel of dead one.
- Of course as a Bonus you can place a talisman to erase their personalities and gain complete control of themas killing machines.

Yes I explained the obvious but for a reason but so I could move on to my next point,

-As you can see Kabuto will seal the individual intro his scroll he just performed the ritual on:

You must be registered for see images

-Next a Casket forms around after the seal on the individual.

You must be registered for see images

-And finally when he wants to summon any of them, he can do so just like this:

You must be registered for see images

-Or To Unsummon them:

You must be registered for see images


4.Can it be used in Combat.

Despite the fact that it's a summoning a lot of people question or even argue that this jutsu should not be allowed to be consider anyone's power because of the "Not able to use in battle" speculation.

Orochimaru went up against "The God of Shinobi" as many of you call him Hiruzen Sarutobi. And you can see him summoning Edo's in front of him, despite the fact that Hiruzen tried to stop it.

So if Orochimaru was able to do it, surely the one who surpassed him Kabuto is able to as well.

5.Conclusion.

Then sure by these manga facts you cannot deny the fact that this and all the summonings
-Akatsuki (Including Nagato and Itachi)
-Jinchuriki
-Previous Kekke Genkei users
-Previous Kage
-And Edo Madara

Are all Kabuto's summonings and are a part of his power. after all he even said it himself "that" being Madara

6.Epilogue: How to stop the Edo Tensei.

Genjutsu of course, it was stated On 2 Occasions:

Kabuto to Madara

Itachi:

Hopefully you read this and can acknowledge ET under Kabuto's, Orochimaru's, and arguably Tobirama's power. Thank you for reading and have a nice day :)


Point of Thread: I'm sick of people saying it isn't his power, needs prep, can't be used in battle, and taking away ET from those users in versus thread

Good thread, but I fail to see the point of it. I'm not trying to sound like an ass either U_U

Re: Truth: Edo Tensei

Agreed. Edo Tensei counts as Kabuto's arsenal, just like any other Summoning Jutsu with a contract.

Re: Truth: Edo Tensei

Eh, some of your logic is flawed. You explain clearly how Edo Tensei is another summoning technique, but that doesn't mean it's his power. It's like verbally calling someone to assist you. Being able to put his summons under his control, however, is. When you cite Kabuto saying "As long as I've got impure world resurrection and "that" other technique...", your interpretation is only that, an interpretation. It's equally likely he's referring to his sage form. Furthermore, he says, "impure world resurrection and "that"". Madara is edo tensei, so why would Kabuto distinguish him like that?

I want you to know that I agree with your point, but not how you go about getting there.

To some extent that's true, but it's a tool and any tool to a ninja is power. Summoning animals, Summoning ools (like sasuke does) and Edo are all the power of the person that uses them :shrug:

It's like you're saying a shurkien summoned by tenten or sasuke isn't their power.

Re: Truth: Edo Tensei

Edo Tensei in my mind is literally EXACTLY like Sasori's human puppets except their much more difficult to destroy and if you want their personalities can be kept. And there is no denying Sasori the right to his puppets, so there is no denying Kabuto the right to his Edo's.

Re: Truth: Edo Tensei

saying kabuto needs prep for edo is like saying summons need contracts, makes no difference, its his abilities, i agree completely

people try and downgrade him because they just dont like his character or how hes come to gain his abilities

Agreed, but that simple statement is more powerful and indisputable than your whole thread post.

Re: Truth: Edo Tensei

Agreed, people really need to stop underrating kabuto. Edo tensei is a form of kuchiyose, its like saying jiraiaya is weak without frog summons they are part of his power.
