It's the tablet in the Uchiha Meeting Place in the Naka Shrine.

This is just something I realised could really be true while reading about the Naka Shrine on the Naruto Wiki today.

The tablet in the Shrine was written by the Sage of Six Paths for his descendants, and can only be deciphered by the different advanced stages of the Sharingan; the basic Sharingan can read some of it, if you unlock the MS you can read more, and if you have the Rinnegan, you can supposedly read the entire tablet. The tablet details the Sage's history, the secrets of the Mangekyou Sharingan, the Ten-Tails and all of the Tailed Beasts, and information about Madara's "body" (presumably instructions on the Six Paths techniques).

Sasuke often went to the Shrine when depressed or curious to read the tablet, but because he only possessed the regular Sharingan, could only read a limited amount. Even Itachi, with only the MS, couldn't read the entire thing; only Madara ever had the potential, and he didn't unlock the Rinnegan until years after he was attached the Mazo, unable to reach the tablet.

So what I'm saying is, no one's every read the entire thing. The final section is a complete mystery.

Now, according the Naruto Wiki (don't ask for manga pages, because I don't have them), Orochimaru and Kabuto weren't able to read the tablet - of course - but spent years developing a theory on what the tablet says based on research.

So, what I'm thinking is, the scroll that Suigetsu found for Sasuke, that supposedly is really important (important enough that Sasuke would revive Orochimaru to help him fully understand the scroll), tells how to read the entire tablet without possessing the Rinnegan, or has information on what the rest of the tablet could possibly say. The One Who Knows Everything is the Sage of Six Paths, who wrote the tablet in the first place. It could tell how to revive him, or perhaps all the meddling with Edo Tensei and the awakening of the Ten-Tails has already revived the So6P, and that's the massive chakra the group can feel in chapter 616. Orochimaru already knew of this possible revival because of his research.

Sasuke wants to read the tablet because of his current existential crisis; he's confused about what is a clan, the meaning of it all, why Itachi was like he was, what's the meaning of being a Shinobi. The tablet will have the Sage's original writings and ideals, explaining all of this and ending Sasuke's ridiculous path of revenge. He'll then go to fight Madara and hopefully get killed by him, because I don't like Sasuke very much ^_^

TL;DR: The scroll Suigetsu gave Sasuke tells how to read the tablet in the Naka Shrine without the Rinnegan, and the One Who Knows Everything is the S06P through said tablet, possibly revived.

"what will you do when you meet them" from oro's words from the previous and previous chapter means nothing then??
"them" meaning a humans/person..and it's not only one..it's clearly more than one.

besides.. sasuke ask orochimaru to guide them there..if it's the naka shrine..he wouldn't even bother to revive orochimaru since he can go there alone.

stick to the manga man.

thought i like how you says you're hoping for sasuke's death..
hahaha

OT once again..
its a human bro..
most of the people here are thinking the same..its a human..

The word 'them' is also used to specify someone whose gender is unknown.
"Someone wanted to see you, I sent them to your office."

Them be can singular; if you don't know a person's gender, you can call them they/them. And if it were more than one person, why would Sasuke be referring to the ONE Who Knows Everything? Why not They Who Know Everything?

As for Orochimaru guiding him there, read the manga yourself:
Sasuke asks where they are going, and Orochimaru responds..."To a place that you too know very well". What place does Sasuke know like the back of his hand? The Naka Shrine.

1)good theory...but tell me one thing in the recent manga...sasuke says to orochimaru..""Guide the way/lead the way orochimaru...""...if they r really going to the nakashrine...why orochimaru needs to ""lead"" them...doesn't sasuke know the road...??so i m thinking...sasuke has no clue where oro is taking him...at least not in full details....when oro told sasuke.... we r going to a place very well known to you....that could mean konoha ....but not known where EXACTLY...
2)and to ur 2nd part that the person(they) who know everything...seems plausible...nice thread..:)

well that's as such as they're referring to no one but the ones who know everything right?? orochimaru wouldn't say them as if it's no clue what gender that man/woman is. he's clearly saying something to give us a hint that he one who knows everything is not only one person. if you think that's how kishimoto always do..i don't think so.

then i can use a regular meaning to Guide also can't i?
guide can be meant to guide them save there from danger..from some ninjas who can be a threat..
guide can also be meant to be bring..
but in this case..sasuke seems a bit worrying about something and a bit hasty..he might even think the worse thing to happen in the middle way..that's why he says "guide" not bring him there.

1) madara unlocked the rinnegan and then somehow summoned the gedo....but since he was at the end of his life by then, he had to
attach himself to the gedo in order to live so long.......

2) if so6p was to be revived somehow, the manga would suck coz naruto wouldn't have much to do....afterall, he's the main character

3) sasuke is going to see some person/people, not to the shrine coz he wouldn't need oro to go there.....

4) i think the person/people are somehow related to oro's experiments coz he had a scroll about them....maybe they are the uchiha clan people whom oro had kept preserved and could revived using edo or something.

read the manga carefully man....

I am sorry, but the Manga stated who ever Sasuke is going to see is the "Human" who knows everything, but nice theory.

Them, is also used in a plural form. I believe he's going to have orochimaru edo tensei the uchiha clan and ask them. Oh, and just a fyi nagato could also read the entire script, so don't forget about him now.

Nagato could read it, but he went and attacked the village, he wasn't interested in the tablet. I was thinking of him, but he's not an Uchiha and probably didn't know the tablet existed.

As for the Uchiha clan, it's a fair point, but I doubt they'd know any more than Sasuke or Orochimaru would if they're just ordinary members like Sasuke's parents. Unless you're talking about including Izuna in that.

nagato is already revived and sealed....it can't be him

Just a notice, for anyone telling me to "read the manga", I read the manga :) This is just a theory I think would be pretty cool, and it is somewhat plausible compared to some theories that people have (I saw one once where Sasuke will absorb the Ten-Tails and become it's Jinchuriki, and not to mention all those that say Sasuke will actually get the Rinnegan, which I reckon would be a really bad story choice for Kishi to make).
I'm not getting all snarky and defensive here, I value the criticism and points against my theory. Just saying, I do read the manga, and it is just a theory.

So, by all means, keep on discussing ^_^
