Wait I didn't get Itachi's plan. I'm going to have to watch the episode a few more times. But to be clear on stuff. So Itachi's plan was to put his eye in a crow and put it in Naruto, so when Sasuke uses Mangeyko Sharigan (can't spell it right sorry) it will activate Itachi's Jetsu and bring the crow out to disable Sasuke's Amaterasu?

But there's one thing that i don't understand. In the past episodes, Sasuke has a conversation with Madara, and he ask for Itachi 's eyes. Madara says that's ok, and Sasuke, at this part of the story, its supossed to be recuperating from the operation to acquire Itachi's eyes.

If we know that... How can Itachi appear with his eyes and his mangekyo sharingan?.

I don't know if im right, but i tought that edo tensei revives the shinobi with his body, and links his soul, that is in the other life, to it. For that reason it's necessary the body of the person that you want to revive before doing the edo tensei jutsu.

Do you remember that in a very few episodes (that were a filler) it's said that a cementery has been profaned and some corpses are missing? And it was Kabuto the person that was behind this attack.

Can someone explain me this in a easy way?

Thank you very much, and forgive my english, but it's not my language and i can't use it very well.

Greetings!

The Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation (口寄せ・穢土転生, Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei) is a forbidden technique where, using a living person as a vessel, a deceased person's soul can be called back to the world of the living and bound to it. The vessel will then take on the form that person had in life, thereby reincarnating them to do their summoner's bidding.

To perform this technique, the user must first acquire some of the DNA of the person they intend to reincarnate. Kabuto remarks that this basically amounts to grave-robbing, although blood stains or organs salvaged after the target's death also work. The soul of the intended reincarnated must also reside in the pure world (浄土, jōdo); for example,those whose soul has been consumed by the Death God cannot be reincarnated.

Next, a living sacrifice is required for the soul of the reincarnated to use as a vessel. Once all prerequisites for the technique have been met, the acquired DNA of the person is smeared on a special scroll and once the scroll is activated, the remains spread out in the form of a special seal with the living sacrifice in the centre. Then dust and ash encase the sacrifice's body, giving them the same appearance that the reincarnated had at the time of their death.

When first summoned, the body of the reincarnated is stored in a coffin; their body will appear grey and in a state of minor "decay": marred by cracks and other imperfections, and the individual will also appear to be "disengaged". Upon awakening they retain their personality, memories, and all abilities they had in life, including kekkei genkai, kekkei tōta and summoning contracts. Although clothing is also retained by the reincarnated shinobi, weaponry on the other hand is not and must be procured by the user when necessary, as seen when two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were unable to retrieve their weapons from a scroll upon reincarnation, as they were currently in the possession of others. However, once obtained, shinobi that have stored their weapons in or about their person are still able to re-summon their tools, regardless of the number of times they are stored within their respective coffin. As a downside, the reincarnated seem to retain any permanent body damage and physical limitations they received during their lifetime. The summoned all have grey sclerae and retain their original eye colours, however, the entire eye is darkened. When Kabuto takes complete control of them however, they gain black sclerae and white irides. The appearance of a reincarnated dōjutsu wielder's eye doesn't change at all. The summoned can be recalled at will by the user, causing an empty coffin to emerge and reclaim the individual, and the summoner can also use reincarnated individuals to remotely summon coffins containing additional reinforcements.

Awesome episode!

One of the big revelations that I'm thinking about is the fact that Shisui is, in fact, still alive; even though he's lost both of his eyes. I'd love to see him appear on stage - we know so little about him.

Also, don't use fillers as base for any theories you have, they are not Kishimoto's work.
