Why Didn’t Kabuto Resurrect All the Hokages in Naruto?

In the Fourth Ninja World War in the series NarutoKabuto plays a very important role because he has so many Edo Tensei strong ninja.

However, from his “collection”, there are none Hokage even one, even though he got Edo Tensei Kage from another village.

What is the reason? Come on, take a look below!

1. Kabuto may have Hokage DNA, but they cannot be Edo Tensei using normal methods because their souls are in Shiki Fujin’s stomach

Didn’t Kabuto resurrect the Hokage because it doesn’t have their DNA? I don’t think so, considering that Orochimaru has the DNA of Hashirama and Tobirama, who have been dead longer than Hiruzen and Minato.

Kabuto might have para DNA Hokagebut fourth Hokage The dead cannot be resurrected Edo Tensei normal.

The reason is because their four souls are in their stomachs Shiki FujinHashirama and Tobirama were sealed by Hiruzen when they were born Edo Tenseiwhile Hiruzen and Minato’s souls are paid for by engineering Shiki Fujin that they each use.

2. The soul in Shiki Fujin’s stomach is “locked” and cannot simply be resurrected

Do you remember when Orochimaru failed to resurrect Minato the first time? The reason is because Minato’s soul is in his stomach Shiki Fujin.

A soul trapped in the stomach Shiki Fujin then it cannot be resurrected by normal means.

They must be expelled first, then they can be resurrected later Edo Tensei. This was because their souls were locked inside their stomachs Shiki Fujin.

3. Because of this, Orochimaru was able to resurrect the four Hokages after removing their souls from Shiki Fujin’s stomach

Orochimaru is not like Kabuto, he studies questions Shiki Fujin deeper because he needed his hand back (which was also on his stomach Shiki Fujin).

He learned this signature Uzumaki technique and used it to open the stomach Shiki Fujin. Not only did the soul from Orochimaru’s hand come out, but all four souls Hokage what’s inside also comes out.

Because it has come out of the stomach Shiki FujinOrochimaru can do Edo Tensei fourth Hokage That, something Kabuto couldn’t do.

Well, that’s the reason Kabuto didn’t resurrect the fourth Hokagewhat do you think?
