Edo Tensei is a type Jutsu forbidden alias Kinjutsu which Tobirama created.
The person who creates the system of rules Kinjutsu and enter Edo Tensei as Kinjutsu himself is Tobirama.
But has he ever used it in battle in his lifetime?
1. Ever and quite often
Tobirama Senju in Shippuden. (Doc. Pierrot/Naruto Shippuden)Although it was never shown, there is dialogue in the manga. Naruto shows that Edo Tensei is one of Tobirama and Konoha’s strongest techniques during the war era.
Tobirama is a character like Danzo, in the sense that he is ready to do anything for the good and victory of the village.
He uses Edo Tensei during war and its application is for suicide squads. What would such a squad look like? Let’s move on to the second point.
2. Konoha has a suicide squad from Edo Tensei in the era of war
crunchyroll.com/Naruto ShippudenEdo Tensei It is not a technique used to revive the dead only, but it has other purposes.
Tobirama created a suicide squad made of Edo Tensei and combined with suicide moves Gojo Kibaku Fuda who used explosive paper as his suicide object.
This is reinforced in the manga Naruto chapter 639 where Tobirama explains the reason why he created the technique Edo Tensei then he used Gojo Kibaku Fuda and blew himself up.
So this is the technique that Tobirama and Konoha used to win the war in the past, namely using Edo Tensei and explode Edo Tensei repeatedly towards the enemy until all the enemies are gone.
The problem is, we still don’t know whether Tobirama used his life as a sacrifice from Konoha or from the prisoners of war that he captured alive. With this fact, Tobirama becomes Hokage We have to admit that it’s the most sadistic.
3. Madara, Mu, and Ginkaku Kinkaku strengthen this explanation.
crunchyroll.com/Naruto ShippudenThe person who knows the most about the moves Edo Tensei are those who live in the era of war.
Madara when using his meteor technique said “This is indeed the goal of Edo Tenseithat is to die with your opponent, but the body Edo Tensei will come back to life, your opponent will not.”
In addition, when Mu is turned on with Edo Tensei then he called Raikage Third, Mizukage Second, and Kazekage Fourth, Mu said:
“This is the move of the Hokage Second, but I don’t feel his presence at all, where is he?!” which indicates that Mu or Iwa had fought the suicide squad Edo Tensei Tobirama.
Not only that, Ginkaku and Kinkaku’s first dialogue to Darui when they appear is:
“We were brought back to life by si technique Hokage Second, even though we beat him (Tobirama) before, right Kinkaku?” which means that when fighting Tobirama, Kinkaku’s troops were also fighting a suicide squad. Edo Tensei but managed to win and kill Tobirama.
4. This fact makes Edo Tensei and Tobirama becomes even more terrifying
crunchyroll.com/Naruto ShippudenKabuto uses Edo Tensei To fight against the alliance and physically and mentally harm some of the people there is indeed evil, especially since some of the souls who were revived did not accept being revived.
But the fact that Tobirama created Edo Tensei to create a suicide squad that blows up its own body then towards the enemy and explodes together is also terrifying.
Not to mention the life sacrifices that he doesn’t know where he got them from. If it was from Konoha, it could be that there was a special suicide squad that was used as a sacrifice. Edo Tensei.
If he captured prisoners of war alive, it would be just as sadistic.
Understandably, the old war era was indeed very terrifying, not to mention the average lifespan of humans in that era was no more than 30 years because most died during the war, so it was natural for Tobirama to justify any means.
