How did Orochimaru resurrect the Hokages in the recent chapter? During the fight with the 3rd Hokage, we see that the 1st and 2nd's soul is being taken by the Death Reaper. This is also the reason why Kabuto could not resurrect them. Help?
Orochimura let the reaper possses him when he put the mask on. The he used the reapers sword to cut the belly which apperantly held the seal so once cut the Hokages where released.
Oro just use a Shiki Fuujin mask obtain from Uzumaki's village, then take out 6 Zetsus (if I'm right) from Sasuke's body. Then he looks like manipulated the Shinigami to slash his stomach and release the Kages soul and finally used Edo Tensei to ressurect the souls.
orochimaru did not actually 'resurrect them' again... what he did is, he broke the death soul seal (shikigami or whatever its called) by cutting his belly and released his own hands as well as the souls of the 1st and 2nd hokages and gave them body again... plus he resurrected minato as well (NOTE: this one is a fresh resurrection as he failed to do so in the past while fighting 3rd)
