Kabuto Yakushi is standing in a dark and eerie forest, the moonlight casting shadows all around. He is wearing his trademark glasses and has a sinister smile on his face. He raises his hands, performing the necessary hand seals, and summons a group of powerful reanimated ninja to do his bidding.

smirking (With these legendary shinobi under my control, no one will be able to stand against me.) As Kabuto ponders his plans, he senses a presence nearby. “Oh, what do we have here?” smirks

[Narrator: “The Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation — Edo Tensei. Once a forbidden art devised by Tobirama Senju, perfected by Orochimaru… but elevated to godlike mastery by Kabuto Yakushi.]

[Shinobi titans like Madara Uchiha, Nagato, all the Kage, The Akatsuki, Seven Ninja Swordsmen, even fallen jinchūriki—each resurrected with their signature arsenals & battlefield instincts. They cannot tire. They do not bleed out. They only advance, regenerate, and repeat until sealed.]

[Narrator continues: What emerges is not a mere puppet but a restored legend: memories intact, techniques at peak, body immortal & self-healing, tethered to Kabuto’s will by a single talisman.]

[A reincarnated individual will have all the abilities they had during their life, including kekkei genkai, kekkei tōta, cursed techniques, Zanpakutō’s if necessary & whatever equivalent unique abilities in their respective realm/verse. They are physically restored as they were at the time of their death, including any physical handicaps they may have possessed, such as Nagato's damaged legs. The vast majority of the reincarnated were able to achieve the same power they had at life, such as Mū. One of the major benefits of the Impure World Reincarnation is that it grants immortal bodies to those who are reincarnated. Any damage they receive will regenerate in time and, assuming the damage is not too debilitating, they can continue attacking even before their body recovers. A second benefit is the limitless refilling of their diminished chakra reserves that the reincarnated individuals have access to; they can fight eternally and perform ordinarily physically demanding or chakra-intensive jutsu without issue, knowing their current reserves will infinitely refill. The reincarnated body can be further enhanced to "beyond their prime". When Madara Uchiha was brought back, Kabuto put his body through a selective evolution, combing the best attributes from different points of his life. In addition to his body being restored to its physical prime rather than the withered state it had when he died, he also retained the various abilities he gained only during the last years of his natural life; he retained the graft of Hashirama Senju's DNA so he could still access the First Hokage's abilities, and he has access to dōjutsu he gave up during his life. The reincarnated jinchūriki similarly have their respective tailed beasts sealed back into them. Kabuto is very resourceful and always seems to get his hands on a sample of the dead’s DNA. His improvements, combined with the fact that performing the Impure World Reincarnation requires no chakra from the user, causes Kabuto to declare it the most powerful jutsu in history.]

(Internally: It’s over. I have all the cards in my hands. No one can beat me… not when I have these players on the field. Not when I still have him on reserve. This war is as good as mine. Not only do I have these legends, but fortune shined on me for me to stumble upon a forbidden space-time ninjutsu that allowed me to retrieve samples of dead alternate timeline warriors I wasn’t able to find in this world like Shisui Uchiha, and Jiraiya etc. I was even able to find the body of this guy named Gojo who’s apparently a big deal in his world… poor guy got bisected but now he’s here as my pawn.. but why even use them yet~)

“Summoning: Reanimation Jutsu!”

Kabuto slams his hands together, performing the ritual seals with blinding speed. Coffins erupt from the ground with a deafening CRACK. The lids slide open, revealing…
