Theory: they are all trapped in infinite tsukiyomi

Including naruto and sasuke. Everything after it was cast was dreamt up.

Nope, because IT never even happened, everything we saw was Madara's vision after being placed in Hashirama's genjutsu back on the mountain when they were in their twenties.

See it was here Hashirama uses his mokuton to make a leaf that when looked through traps the victim in a genjutsu. Hashi knew the only way to stop Madara from ruining his vision for Konoha was to get rid of him but he couldn't bring himself to kill Madara so he placed him in a genjutsu.

Everything we've seen has been Madara's genjutus world, from his clan turning their back on him to his clan then being rounded up, to the 2nd Hokage(the man who killed his brother) being murdered by 20 random ninja, I mean really what better revenge for the man who killed your brother the whole thing just reeks of Madara's dreams. Madara then cheats death to attain the greatest power ever, come on now that all just sounds too perfect and if something's too good to be true it usually is, Madara never unlocked Rinnegan, he never met Obito and he never fought Naruto because none of them really exist, they're all just creations of Madara to flesh out his genjutsu world while Hashi and Tobirama are chilling in Konoha relaxed.

Just take a look at Hinata's, Tenten's and Rock Lee's dream: Neji is there and alive, nobody died. In reality, Neji died. Why would Rock Lee, Tenten and Hinata dreaming about Neji's death if in their dream he was fine and living?

I have a feeling that NS fans will soon cast MT on themselves if they continuing it.
