Oro's true intentions to be revealed after the war?

[Floydical]

A while back Sasuke confirmed that Oro didn't simply attack the Leaf on a whim, he had another true intention. Did Kishi forget all about this or do we simply have to wait till the war is over?

who know and who cares

 

[Farama Senju]

He most likely found out the leaf were responsible for his parents death, so he most likely wanted to take revenge

 

[HouKage]

He is the descendent of Black Zetsu . . . .

 

[Red Slayer]

he wanted something and he already got it

 

[Zorø]

Hes up to something thats all I know.....

 

[gullagullagulla]

I wouldn't be surprised if Kishimoto forgot

I get the feeling its something more profound than that, especially if we have to wait until the war is over to be told about it.

Possible

It may be shown later on when Orochimaru comes out. It's likely his revenge on his parents death.

Lol there is simply no chance for Kishi to forget him. People also said the same for Spiral Zetsu after his log absense but guess what? He returned and shitted on the alliance. He simply wants us to think like that or to forget about him.

I think at this point it's safe to say that Kishi can't handle too many separate character developments very well. He tends to choose a few favorites, though those few change from time to time. He's forgotten about Orochimaru and the Sannin a long time ago...

EDIT: Orochimaru and Kabuto only came back recently as plot devices (to help Sasuke), but Kishi kept their characterization to an almost annoying minimum. Orochimaru's dead stare when asked about his motives, and Kabuto saying "I changed my mind in the last two hours because Izanami, so I guess I shouldn't have started a world war and killed thousands of people. That's how long it takes for mass murderers to change their minds, folks."

You're wrong, it's Kishi's style to develop some characters more while he keeps some other hidden to become the real threat later. In my opinion what he did with Orochimaru is ingenious. He presented him now as an ally, he even wnet as far as to nullify him with IT, only for him to become dangerous once again later, a prime example of similar "indifference" was Spiral Zetsu. For many, he was completely forgotten. As for Kabuto, you don't see the whole image. Just think that that Tsukuyomi makes a sec pass like 3 days, who tells you that 2 hours in Izanami can't be much more than that, let alone that it won't be simply 2 hours.

Well, I'll give you the Kabuto thing (I wish we'd seen more of his thought process/torment, though). But how is Orochimaru coming back, completely off-character as a plot device "ingenious"? You say that as if you had the foreknowledge of his eventual return after IT. If and ONLY IF he does return, then I'll concede you the point that Kishi didn't forget. But for now that's just speculation...

Spiral Zetsu didn't really come back as a rounded character. Same as Oro/Kabuto: just a plot device--in this case to keep the Kages/SA away from the main battlefield. We didn't learn more about SZ, mainly because there isn't anything to him, he's just a henchman, so I don't think he's a good example of Kishi handling a large cast well.

Right now, the only people being explored are the people in the battlefield. We got a small glimpse of some of the Kages and Konoha 11 during IT, but that was pretty quick. Like a "Hey, don't worry, I guess I remember these characters exist." That was the same chapter that we just saw Bee standing there, forgotten... lol he's been alive this whole time, just standing there...?

The fact that Kishi didn't let Oro on purpose to speak about his real motives is a clue that he will return. As for SZ, don't jump into conclusions just yet. You think that he's just a henchman, the same way most of the base thought the same for BZ, does this ring any bells? And in general, it's not like just a henchman who was forgotten. Ig he was just a henchman he could have helped Obito all along with his plan. But no, he decided to emerge after a lot of chapters and in fact that only happened once Obito could no longer control the battle. So, based on what we've seen so far as for BZ and SZ I would go by saying that Oro is bound to return. Also, let's not forget another very important thing: right know he's stronger than he ever was since the beginning fo the series. He has zetsu's body and his jutsu back. Last but not least, don't forget that before the fell under the genjutsu, Kabuto and Juugo were cautious as far as Orochimaru goes. That's another hint.

 

[Seventh Sama]

He's gonna be fv.

 

[Angelic.]

agree that the questioning from juugo and suigetsu is foreshadow. and what he did to spiral.

 

[MAN OF SIN]

The war is over. But I'm sure Kishi will resolve it.
