Naruto

I suppose its possible for the sharingan eye to be the chakra receptor. It is a huge source of chakra itself, and he does have quite a collection.

Someone mentioned all the paths having one ability only, that wasn't the case for the Deva path (yahiko's body) which had a few abilities. However they really only need to do one thing: go into tailed mode. Tailed beast bomb/whatever. They don't need special abilities like nagato's paths, that's what made nagato's strong - madara's have better sources of power.

@naruto flash... Looks like he just moved fast, but he did move somewhat behind him. I'm sure his speedboost isn't going to matter much anyway as either his enemy will be just as fast as him or LOL RINNENGAN I SEE 6 THINGS AT ONCE.

How could they go into tailed beast mode after the tailed beast has been extracted from them causing their deaths in the first place?

[Boyiee]

Its a comic for 14 year olds, I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to write in.

What would be the point of using them as his paths if they can't do anything tailed-beast-like?

Madara just needs to give them a little of the beasts chakra... Remember the 2 guys on the beach with some of the 9tails chakra still in them(gold and silver brothers)? The one went tail mode and went berserk... That is all they need to be capable of doing, and I'm SURE they'll have more residual or be given more chakra than those guys had.

I don't know, seems pretty obvious to me. Guy has former tailed beasts as paths, what else would they be for.

Same reason I guess that people who lost their abilities after dying at some point(Itachi's eyes, Pain's Rinnegan, etc) can still retain them after being summoned by Edo Tensei. The Thunder brothers were able to use Nine Tails chakra they had retained from their lives, shouldn't be too surprising then that the former Hosts could then also use some of their tailed beast chakra. Although since they don't seem to have the tailed beasts inside of them(assuming they are still in that statue) it might just be limited chakra use, kinda like how Gaara is still very powerful after his was removed.

I'm not saying your wrong, but I don't remember any other abilities the Deva path used, other than gravity manipulation.
The wikia lists a few things Pain has donw, but I don't think we've ever seen Deva use them personally and it could have just as easily been Nagato who used the ninjitsu.

[Man0warr]

Edo Tensei seems to resurrect people at the time of their deaths, it doesn't directly resurrect the body. Otherwise Itachi would be missing his eyes.

[TheTaru]

That still doesn't explain how he would be able to control them without any black chakra receivers unless Madara's sharingan has an app for that bullshit too. It doesn't seem likely Kabuto would willingly let Madara control the former jinchuriki hosts knowing full well his plan.

I also don't understand why Madara would invest some of his eye collection into dead bodies that can be desummoned or controlled by Kabuto when he probably still has the original bodies of the jinchuuriki guys anyway. I mean, what'd he do with them? Eat them?

@Phoenyx Madara said something like "It was mine to begin with," when he took Nagato's eyes. Seems like some random cryptic shit since Nagato was related to the sage of six paths in some way, if I remember correctly. If he could create rinnegan in others at will, why go to the trouble of finding Nagato's corpse? Why not just create them in Zetsu or any random person and take them? Makes about as much sense as anything else.

Think it was Nagato being a descendant of the Uzumaki clan (Madara says something about his hair after he finds Nagato's body). If Madara was responsible for Nagato having the Rinnegan, perhaps it was because Nagato's chakra was well-suited for it like Kushina's was suited to be a Jinchuriki.

And good point about creating the eyes, didn't really think that part through. D: Guess we'll just have to wait and hope for an explanation on that shit.

[arus2001]

Think the "mine to begin with" part was just Madara being a sour grape over Negato using his power to revive Konoha instead of eventually doing it for whatever Madara intended it for.

[Phoenyx]

Hmmm. In the Mangastream/Binktopia scanlation I have, Madara says "I was the one who gave Nagato the Rinnegan." Of course, that's one translator's interpretation I suppose. If anyone cares to look at a raw and comment it's chapter 509. :D

[Krye]

Man, we've got Madara running around with the six paths of Jinchuuriki, the rinnegan, and the double mangekyou(although we've never seen him use his mangekyou in present times, so maybe he can't). We've got Sasuke about to start ganking fools with his double mangekyou. We've got Itachi and Pain running around with their mangekyou and rinnegan. We've got Naruto and Bee about to show up in complete control of their tailed beasts. And Orochimaru will probably take over Kabuto at some point and he seems to be invincible when he's not getting gayed in the worst possible ways by the sharingan or getting sealed by Shinigami or the sword of Totsuka.

Very exciting times.

[Sho]

It's really not that complicated to know what's going on currently:

1) The 6 Jinchuuriki are all revived from Edo Tensei, not w/e Nagato used on his 6 Paths of Pain.
2) Madara is using whatever technique Nagato used to copy eyes through his Six Paths to copy Rinnegan throughout the Jinchuuriki for "full vision" purposes as well as complete control of them (Rinnegan makes the 6 Paths mindless of it's own accord, so Kabuto won't be able to force use of them unless he's hax).
3) Sharingan was implanted into the Jinchuuriki for the obvious use of basic chakra perception/forsight, basic hypnosis and use of Izanagi.
4) Madara will have further control of Rinnegan than Nagato-- His 6 Paths of Pain might not have the same "limitations" that Nagato's did.
5) Chakra rods/receivers/sticks etc are not needed at all, because Madara is in complete (or near complete) control of The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path (the huge face behind Madara in the picture). That statue is the originator of the chakra rods technique in the first place.
6) Naruto just happened to gain a speed similar to his fathers Yellow Flash via Sage Mode/Yin 9-Tails Mode. It's obvious and ironic that the form Naruto is in his naturally yellow colored.

Shit is going down however.

[Sunrider]

How could they go into tailed beast mode after the tailed beast has been extracted from them causing their deaths in the first place?

Didn't Gaara retain power over sand even after losing his biju? Just as Cleverness mentioned, Edo Tensei has it's own set of rules, but perhaps that a strong affinity between jinchurikki and biju would leave a lasting effect on the jinchurikki... for those that survive separation.

[Zeb]

I can see Kishi letting Naruto being able to use the teleportation jutsu, without tags and when in 9-tails mode, because he can sense everyone's chakra from hella-far away.

[Salodin]

Even if he isn't teleporting, he moves as fast as if he teleports; and with out the need for tags just makes him even more baller in a fight then the Fourth.

2) Madara is using whatever technique Nagato used to copy eyes through his Six Paths to copy Rinnegan throughout the Jinchuuriki for "full vision" purposes as well as complete control of them (Rinnegan makes the 6 Paths mindless of it's own accord, so Kabuto won't be able to force use of them unless he's hax).

That's just baseless speculation. I'd assume it's true, but theres absolutely no evidence to point one way or the other.

3) Sharingan was implanted into the Jinchuuriki for the obvious use of basic chakra perception/forsight, basic hypnosis and use of Izanagi

Chakra perception is understandable, but anything resurected via Edo Tensei is immortal, Izanagi is just a waste of an eye on them. I'm more curious as to how they'll fight with them, Kakashi seems to drain chakra fast when using the eye, but at the same time I don't think it's been shown if the resurrections have unlimited chakra, or if they need to rest at some point to continue using ninjutsu.

Like I said before, all baseless speculation. He might be able to control them, he might not. It'd be pretty hard to believe Kabuto dispelled the technique on the jinchuruki and then let Madara use it on them instead so he could control it, and at the same time it's pretty hard to believe Madara has full control over them even with the Rinnegan since it's kabuto that summoned them.

The mangas done a decent job of explaining shit a chapter or two after all these types of questions pop out, but I highly doubt these guys are as OP as we are led to believe. I'm sure they'll get their asses handed to them properly in a month or two.

Another note on the chakra drain, I agree with you on draining chakra fast, but you have to take into consideration that they are Jinchuuriki and probably have a buttload of chakra to use anyway. I'm pretty certain that in the manga, Kakashi himself has said that his general lack of chakra is his major flaw... buuut don't quote me on that.

Of course, we don't know if the resurrected people actually use their own chakra or use chakra from Kabutorochimaru, which just results in Kabuto being crazy overpowered, or a big plot hole. Who knows really.

[GarraMcOwnage]

Kabuto could just be letting him controll them to give Madara a false sence on security and go luls mine at a critical time.

[Souj]

except Madara has not trusted Kabuto since the very beginning and has constantly questioned and wondered about his true motives and what he's planning so I would doubt he would depend on Kabuto at all. If he gave Kabuto's summons the rinnegan/sharigan I'd say it's a guarantee Madara knows he's in full control of the situation.

That's not to say Kabuto couldn't troll the troll with some mega super secret ultra trolling technique not even madara knows about.

If Kabuto tries to play him, I'm betting Madara will likely just snap his fingers, taking away the Sharingan/Rinnegan gifts and commence with his own brand of trolling.

[Saga]

Man..remember when Kabuto was just a douchey medical ninja who got a big rasengan to the stomach during the Jiraiya/Orochimaru/Tsunade fight? Yeah, I miss those times.
