Was one of the best threads on NB i've seen. As for your thread, well done with the analysis but i do disagree about Tobi being the Elder son.
Firstly, why would the Elder Son of the SO6P, considered the God of shinobi, refer to himself as nobody? He was a living legend, yet needs to hide behind the facade of a kid(Madara is that compared to him). What purpose does Tobi gain by hiding his identity? If the whole ninja world knows about the Rikudo Sennin, claiming he is his Elder Son to the world ought to inspire more fear/awe than anything posing as Madara could hope to achieve.
Don't have anytime but i'll discuss this in more detail later
+rep Aj
I don't think the elder son of the sage will need Madara's name to be feared and he had a swirl pattern dojutsu not an ordinary Sharingan.
this theory makes sense...and i agree. coz the other posts that wants to contradict is not really convincing.
like some good points raised but fell short:
"if he is the son of SO6P why he's defeated by minato."
(it's not even mentioned that the son of SO6P is a super great ninja, now they're implying like he is invincible, he is only the son, not the SO6P himself).
"why he is using madara's name instead of his name."
(it's madara's name that is feared in this time, even almost all people assumed that SO6P is just a myth including jiraiya, so if he introduced himself as the son of SO6P, most of the time people will not understand or maybe laugh at him)
and other points raised to contradict that's not even worth to mention because they're nonsense. (like "i think he's obito because i like obito and somehow somewhere he will be obito.")
It's very possible, +rep.
shut up, tobi is nobody, just accept it,
Looks like they guy who posted this thread already has haters. Well done xd
I could start a thread about my grans cookies and it would attract haters. Haters gunna hate...
why is he atting the leaf? Also Tobi didnt kno aout the edo technique he told kabuto to tell him about it so this is all wrong
You make Some fair points.It's Unlikely but not impossible
