the story that Madara told about Hagoromo dividing up the bijuu chakra is a bit of a plot hole as it states that When Hagoromo was close to death he decided that if he died the juubi would reform and terrorize the world but the fact is that according to madara when he became the juubi's jinchuuriki he was immortal so if a juubi jinchuuriki is immortal

Why was hagoromo close to death? he should have been just as immortal

the only other explanation would be that hagoromo decided he wanted to die and the only way to to that would be to remove the juubi by partitioning it into 9 beasts

but still the entire statement of near death is wrong as a juubi jin is immortal
