Talk:Orochimaru

Orochimaru does not possess
The DNA from Kabuto or the Sound 5. He does not have Shikotsumyaku. He only has Wood Release and Hashi healing ability thanks to taking over a White Zetsu body. Absorbing info and chakra does not give you the Kekkei Genkei, as he has to have injected himself with the DNA for it. FlatZone (talk) 01:22, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
 * Go through previous archives. Sasuke literally had Jugo take Kabuto's flesh to make Orochimaru's new body. Kabuto had them, and since Oro's body was made from Kabuto's, he had them. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:30, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
 * You're right, I completely forgot about that. That means that Oro's dream of obtaining Shikotsumyaku also came true.. now he just needs the Sharingan lol FlatZone (talk) 01:32, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
 * So we're listing Orochimaru as having the Kekkei Genkai due to possessing flesh that contains KG DNA, but on the other hand we don't list people who have possession of Hashimaru's cells as having Wood Release, despite DNA being located in cells. Am i missing something or is this an inconsistent matter? --Sarutobii2 (talk) 01:52, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

From what I understand, Tsunade cultured Naruto's artificial arm from Hashirama's cells, so he wouldn't just possess it simply because it wasn't just "grown" into an arm and simply transplanted to him. Concerning Kabuto giving Sasuke the cells via Jugo's technique, I understood it as Kabuto changing those cells into cells close to Jugo's own, since his flesh was "compatible" with Sasuke as he mentioned at one point. Why Danzo doesn't have it (if it hasn't been changed), I'm not sure. -- Princeharris1993 02:01, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
 * I used to be on "list Naruto as WR" based on the arm argument, but this has been debated to such a point I'm not sure I care any more. Don't think there's any issue with Danzo, he had WR because of Shin's arm, so when he lost that, he lost WR. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:17, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
