Naruto Shippuuden Episode 333

But basically when Kabuto gives a speech like that, it's 100% assured there's at least a 50% chance he's just utilising an extremely cheap way to ensure he won't be one-shot killed right off the bat.

I might agree but this isn't the first time it's come up. It's been said repeatedly by several different characters that Edo Tensei doesn't end when it's user dies.

Anko, the other "student" of Orochimaru. I'm sure she'll have some kind of a role in this, just not sure what yet.

Remember she also has one of Orochimaru's Cursed Seals.

Possibly the only character to still have one now that Sasuke lost his and the Sound Five are all dead.

I'm guessing Kabuto has plans for it, since it's, like, Orichimaru's essence or something,


EDIT: Actually, I just realized something. Itachi is the one that sealed away Orochimaru inside the Totsuka blade. Maybe now that Itachi is here, Kabuto has a plan for releasing his spirit, then he can use Anko as a sacrifice and Edo Tensei Orochimaru!

That would be sweet as fuck! Snake+Zombie Snake vs. Uchiha+Zombie Uchiha!
