do you think it would be possible for Orochimaru to combine his cloning technique with Edo Tensei?
what i mean is, his clone techinque creates actual living clones instead of the temporary shadow clones IE Log and Mitsuki. so my thoughts are, what if created a jutsu that combines his clone technique and the Edo tensei. and by using the edo tensei to summon the soul of a shinobi and then bind their soul to one of their clone bodies. this way they are bound to a new body of their own. so instead of an immortal zombie like the edo tensei. he could create an army of actual revived shinobi.
the technique could be called Clone art: pure revival art by cloning the desired shonobi and then summoning their soul and binding it to the new body. the clone body would become a perfect host, because the host body is that of a clone instead of an undead zombie like the edo tensei. the soul would simply be reborn into the clone body and as such would have a brand new life. the soul of the diseased shinobi would lose his or her memories and essentially be a brand new person. and of course once the cloned body reaches a specific age all jutsu the shinobi had in his or her past would be unlocked and re-awakened
all of this is speculation, all i am asking is if you think it would be possible for orochimaru could use the clone jutsu to alter the edo tensei and truly revive shinobi in this manner
