Why didn't Kabuto ever use the Edo Tensei on Orochimaru?

[Skull Knight]

Well he talk so much about Oro and still never perform edo tensei on him.besides i believe oro would be the first one he wants sitting besides him controlling d war.

 

[NarutoB]

Orochimaru would've still probably needed to take his power back from Kabuto even as an Edo.

 

[Moss]

That's a ridiculous question. What would be the purpose?

 

[King Of Crows]

Orichimaru was never dead. Totsuka blade sealed him.

 

[Fair Warning]

Kabuto didnt really care and/or respected Oro too much to do that

 

[Shura]

Because Oro wasn't dead... He was just sealed.

 

[yondaime4]

If oro was sealed in totsuka he wouldnt have been revived by sasuke, but he still wasnt dead as his conciousness was in anko and why do you think kabuto kept anko alive and wanted sasuke? stupid question lol

 

[Murasame]

Orichimaru was never dead. Totsuka blade sealed him.

actually remember that little snake that came out before oro was fully sealed? I'm sure that was oro.. and he got killed by amaterasu

 

[Neonian]

Oro would probably release it somehow, you know Oro always has something up his sleeve. And besides, where would his corpse be? He was sealed.

Hehe if he was sealed why is he alive now?

 

[anointed1]

Never thought about that. He did have his severed hand kept in a jar however... But I am a firm believer that Orochimaru never actually died at any point of the series. He does not throw the whole "immortal" title for show.

so according 2 u whats d purpose of bringing edo hokage.
its simple 2 lend a helping hand.

look totsuka blade only sealed oro that was inside sasuke curse mark.
u cant deny this fact.
moreover he came back even after got sealed by the blade via anko.

actually i believe it was just a part of Oro inside sasuke that got sealed by totsuka blade.

 

[anointed1]

Orochimaru is an extraordinary shinobi with a vast arsenal of jutsu at his disposal. while his regeneration techniques are counter intuitive as an edo, his power and intelligence is enough reason to reanimate him. But he was alive all along, partly sealed within the totsuka, and partly sealed within a handful of viable curse marks (likely only heaven and earth variants).

Exactly. So Edo Tensei would not work because Orichimaru never actually died We are in agreement, my friend !

yes but still how does he came back then if he got sealed by totsuka blade.

I have no freaking clue

Because Oro Was Sealed Not Dead. The sSame ituation Like When Oro Tried To Summon The 4th

 

[chancek7]

He was sealed.
If you know the signs the Edo can be released. Oro taught Edo to Kabuto. 1+1= ?
