Well, considering how much the plot has progressed, I don't really see Izuna having any end goals other than Madara ( Whom he was manipulating from the start). As, such I had to give him an end goal in order to make him relevant.it's a good theory .. but you're wrong !!! not about "izuna is Spiral Zetsu" but about his goals .. u mention in your theory about shinju , I.T , reviving Sobojo , .. and where did he got all these information ?!!! even Madara couldn't descript them with MS ... he descripted them in his EMS state .. ( so nobody couldn't know anything about I.T , Shinju , Sobojo , the eye , - including Izuna )
but the Izuna is SZ " is a plausible theory .. it was mentioned before , but not with all this clarify and expansion of facts .. nice job bro+rep
If you read the prediction that I posted in that part, you will see a connecting link between Izuna and Sobojo. And this connecting link is what makes Izuna try to revive Sobojo and return his Rinnegan. I will make another theory on this when I get the time cause I didn't give any evidence in that prediction to support it.
Well, I wonder if he did it for a Nostalgia reason. Or it could just have been an attempt by Kishi to cover up Izuna's identity. About the Poop part, either it was another charade of his or it could be connected to Sobojo (Read TBY Theory on this).Nice Work Here Dragonor!
I see potential in this theory as with all the characters occupied at the moment (i.e. Heroes vs Kaguya, Kages w/ Hagoromo); it begs to ask the question as to why is Spiral Zetsu doing?
He mentions he doesn't need the filling once the Infinite Tsukuyomi Started [You must be registered for see links]
Perhaps he's trying to sync up with the God Tree and acquire the Forbidden Fruit like you said.
At that one instance where you mentioned the cloak man, that reminded me a lot of Spiral Zetsu/Tobi's attire during this scene:

One question that comes to mind is why would he be so fond of feces then lol?
Well,here I would combine TBY's theory with mine. I would say that Spiral Zetsu came from the fruit where Sobojo was sealed. And Madara used this Spiral Zetsu as a container For pouring Izuna's Consciousness into. And as such Izuna became Spiral Zetsu.Black Zetsu stated that the White Zetsu are people who were previously drained through the Eternal Tsukoyomi and then pulled out of the gedou...
What is Susanoo, What are Black Rods ? They are called Doujutsu or more specifically Eye Techniques. How can you cast an Eye Technique if you don't have eyes ? That defies Logic. So, either Madara's Susanoo was an Asspull.Well your personal beliefs fly in the face of manga facts. Madara was able to manipulate block rods AFTER awakening rinnegan, he just didn't need they eyes anymore to used that ability. Just like he doesn't need his eyes to use susanno'o. Also if he had access to a power like that but never used it once against Hashirama?
Or, He used these techniques wirelessly (I know this sounds unbelievable, but I have evidence to back it up), because even if he didn't have the eyes, he still maintained a chakra connection with his Rinnegan via the Black Rods (Obito is debatable but White Zetsu may have had these Rods).
Either he lacked the Knowledge (Limbo may be an MS technique, but Madara never had the knowledge and as such never used it) or he just didn't require it during the battle because according to the plan,
1) Madara had to obtain Hashirama's DNA.
2) Madara had to lose the Fight.
3) Dissapear from History.
If he used Black Rods or Limbo during the fight, he would have won and ruined the plans.
