The reason why did not Orochimaru/Kabuto reanimate Hagoromo Ootsutsuki using Edo

First before I will explain, let's take a look at this scan:

^^ Kabuto said that eventually he will learn Secrets of Sage of six paths !, but there is another translation where Kabuto states: "eventually I will unlock the mind of Sage of six paths."... but sadly I can't find the proper scan.

I believe that something is missing....

I am sure that both Kabuto and Orochimaru are aware that Sage of six paths existed and is not just myth, so why ?

Key word would be "Unlock of the mind of Sage of six paths", this could prove that both Kabuto and Orochimaru believe that Sage of six paths did something to his body before he died.

This is my prediction showing what would happen if Orochimaru currenlty tried to Edo Tensei Hagoromo Ootsutsuki:

Orochimaru: Edo Tensei ! (clap his both hands)
Everyone: ?! (the confin rise from ground)
[The conffin opens ups as Sage of six paths's dead corpse is shown inside.]
Obito/Madara: Impossible !
Oorchimaru: That right, I am true ruler of this world !
[Lifeless corpse of the Sage of six paths comes out of confin taking few steps forward]
Everyone: shit !
Orochimaru: mwahahahah !
Everyone: ?!... (strange look)
Orochimaru: ?!
[Lifeless corpse of the Sage of six paths is shown with closed eyes.]
Orochimaru: Ahh... that right. I will awake him now (makes handseal)
[Nothing happen as lifeless corpse of the Sage of six paths still stand there unmoved.]
Orochimiaru: Impossible... why he refuse to move... why he is not doing according to my orders ?!
Orochimaru: *There is no doubt that Sage of six paths soul is present here and the body looks like him... but why can't it move and do my orders....*
Finally Orochimaru reminds himself that Sage of six paths probably has done something making him not edo Tensei-able via locking his mind...
Orochimaru: Shit ! (focus all power on Edo Tensei technique binding but no effects)
[Sudddenly Sage of six paths corpse crumbles and scatter as dust around with dead body being in pile of ashes laying on ground.]
END

Conclusion : Kabuto and Orochimaru could summon Sage of six paths via Edo Tensei but could not controll him or even force life into that corpse..., that why he wasn't summoned. That why Kabuto and Orochimaru have searched for ways to unlock Sage of six paths's mind.

 

[HiddenSound]

I agree with the conclusion.
That, and it's hard to find any DNA of 1000-year-old corpse.

 

[riley freeman]

Noooo, the reason is because kishi didn't think of it

 

[Sefirosu Masamune]

Well this theory is far fetched to me but given that way more things i thought were not possible happened i say its plausible by the kishimoto logic.

 

[MetalGundam]

They shoulda Edo Tensei'd a Tyrannosaurus Rex

 

[chad062388]

Sounds legit

 

[ForbiddenUzumaki]

Naa they don't have the resources to summon the Sage.

 

[Hipster Deidara]

Who is Hagomoro o_o?

 

[Naijakid]

It was so obvious

 

[Lightbringer]

Yeah they wouldn't be able to control him and probably because his bones are nothing but dust anyways


also another theory would be because his spirit reincarnated within Naruto, so edo tensei wouldn't work

Good theory. Again we have to wonder just how much does Orochimaru know about the world? O_O

 

[Transcendence]

It is fundamentally impossible given that if the fruit was 1000 years ago (God Fruit) and Rikudou was around that time, finding a 950+ year old corpse is nigh impossible, and intact? Literally impossible. That, and the possibility that his soul is reincarnated in to Naruto and it wouldn't transfer from Naruto's living body to a reanimated corpse.

 

[Jcub]

I wouldn't say it was impossible to find a 1000 year old corpse. Normally, yes. However this is Naruto, the old timer is prolly frozen in stasis in a crystal or something to that effect.

I like the theory, sounds very plausible, and around here in the Kishi universe...thats good enough!

Thanks everyone for your feedback and replies
