Talk:Preta Path (character)

Using Preta Path
Since the body is used for Nagato's Preta Path, should it have it as a jutsu? Joshbl56 23:27, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * Preta Path is the jutsu.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 23:34, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * Indeed it is but should we add it as a jutsu of his because his body is used as a medium for the jutsu? Joshbl56  23:40, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * I say not. This character was dead when his body was using the Preta Path ability, he had nothing to do with it. Skitts (talk) 23:48, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * His body would fall under the Six Paths of Pain technique as a whole not individually.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 00:11, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

Dead or Not Dead?
Should we put that Jiraiya killed the paths? Seeing as they are already a corpse, wouldn't it be better to say they were subdued? Joshbl56 14:06, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * I just copied dead from the chapter article, given that Pain apparently needed to repair/revive them to continue using them, dead seems a more accurate term. TricksterKing (talk) 00:46, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Except they are already dead. You can't kill something that isn't alive. You can however destroy it.--TheUltimate3 Uzumaki Symbol.svg (talk) 00:52, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

None of the Paths are alive during the Six Paths of Pain technique. They're just corpses being moved with chakra (a la Dead Soul Technique). Skitts (talk) 00:57, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Would rendered unusable be a better description? TricksterKing (talk) 04:47, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
