As the title states, this thread is about Orochimaru. He's been oddly suspicious lately. The only reason he's helping Sasuke out is because he needs the DNA of the previous Kages. Not only that- Orochimaru absorbed a Zetsu. Doesn't that give him a three year cooldown on that ability or is it reduced with Senju cells? Does that Zetsu/Part-Hashi body now inable him to enter Sage Mode? And as we've seen- Orochimaru is not only after the Sharingan but the Uchiha and Senju blood limit to become more like the Sage. Has anyone ever wondered why he's never absorbed an Edo? Is it not possible? Why he researched the Uzumaki and how he knows so much(He probably has studied and learned some of their seals and secrets)? And finally- Kishimoto has never shed some light on the mysterious Namikaze clan. What does Orochimaru know? How dangerous is he? I believe he will be a greater threat or equal to the Jubi and will be the final villian of the series. Why? Because if he can now become a Sage- all he's missing is Uchiha blood limit and he'd be more OP than Kabuto. And we all know how everyone labels Kabuto unbeatable 1vs1. What do you think? :shrug:
