Orochimaru is weird af. It doesn't matter how bad he gets harmed,
as long as there're parts of him he always comes back (

). Don't forget his real form is made up of multiple snakes as well, to kill him one must kill all the snakes, effectively obliterate his whole body or seal his soul. He already got cut in half and reattached like it was nothing. After he gets put in the same condition as Madara i don't see he can't regurgitate and put himself together.
He's the Buu of Naruto :|
Lol, this is nothing but a gross exaggeration of his abilities.
-That scan is irrelevant to your point.
-The bold is obviously wrong. If his body is mostly destroyed or completely destroyed, there is no coming back. If his body is turned to paste, he isn't going to come back. If only limbs are left, he isn't coming back.
-Getting cut half doesn't mean he can take Evening Elephant and survive.
-His real form being made of snakes doesn't mean you need to kill every snake, but one Evening Elephant would be enough to do that anyway, so its irrelevant either way.
-And finally, the biggest lolworthy part of your post is assuming that Orochimaru will be as injured as Madara was, even though Madara's durability is so far above Orochimaru's that it isn't even funny. If Evening Elephant hits him, he gets smeared, period. He isn't going to come back with minor injuries....not even gonna mention Night Guy, which would vaporize him.
He is not the Buu of Naruto, not even close. :|
Are you comparing the likes of lord Orochimaru with the ground? EE breaks bones more than anything else and possibly messes up the insides w/ the pressure. That ain't putting him down.
Everything here is nothing but your own interpretation. Evening Elephant is a giant Elephant's Foot made of air pressure that can make a deep crater and vaporize it like its nothing. The same will happen to Orochimaru, who isn't more durable than the deep chunk of the Earth that Gai vaporized with one blast of evening elephant. If he doesn't get vaporized, he gets smeared across the ground.
So far the only attack Gai has shown that can vaporize anyone is NG, but that ain't going to obliterate a whole body, which is absolutely necessary to kill Oro physically.
This has been replied to above. Its laughable we have anyone here thinking that Orochimaru will survive since Madara survived.
1) They didn't regenerate because Orochimaru didn't want them to. He saw that they were uneffective. Moreover, he was bound to get defeated by Itachi so Kishi prolly didn't want to waste more panel time there

Straight from the Databook:
'Out of Sasuke's Cursed Seal came forth Orochimaru, shapeshifted into an eight-headed, eight-tailed white snake, via the White Snake's power of regeneration.'
'Orochimaru has achieved a Rebirth that lets him come back no matter how far he is pushed past death's threshold. The source of his tenacity is the power of the White Snake, which governs good fortune and rebirth. Orochimaru put his hands on the White Snake's regeneration abilities after long years of study and research.'
2) About the second one. Didn't Sasuke utilize Oro's chakra that he absorbed to use Oral Rebirth and other Oro's jutsu? I thought it was that he spent all of his own chakra and also Oro's chakra he absorbed, so that he couldn't supress Cursed Seal anymore.
Nah, Sasuke had some of his chakra that suppressed Orochimaru.
It was said to be created from his regeneration abilities, similar to his true form.
OT: as much as I love Lord Orochimaru he loses
I've never seen the Eight Branches regenerate once in this manga, which would possibly mean that it being created using his regeneration abilities doesn't mean that it regenerates itself.
They see Gai do one move and start putting him versus so many other characters saying he can now beat them. If the Gai supporters say he uses the 8th Gate to solo, then they are acknowledging Gai is inferior to whoever he is against and his only chance of winning would be to suicide himself. That is not winning the fight, its a dumb argument that people use when they have no other legs to stand on and nothing else to back up their reasons why Gai would win. If thats the case I can juts make Hiruzen/Minato topics all day putting them versus everyone and say they Repaer Death Seal their opponents via shadow clones to solo, therefore they win. That is just stupid and dumb....
How about you stop crying? Cause pretty much nobody except for one person thinks that opening the Eighth Gate is a victory.
