Description So for those who are keeping up with Naruto, you now know that Tobi is not exactly who he has claimed to be. So now we are all in the dark about who the man behind the mask is. I've been looking at some of the evidence surrounding him and these are the four possible candidates that I've narrowed it down to. Left to Right, Kagami Uchiha, Obito Uchiha, Izuna Uchiha, Madara Uchiha.

Here are my theories.

-Kagami-
I know some of you are asking 'who'?
Kagami was one of Danzo's cell members back when the 2nd Hokage Tobirama was killed. He was there and witnessed the battle, as well as Hiruzen being made 3rd Hokage. After they returned to Konoha, both he and Danzo argued Hiruzen's right to lead and lost. Danzo went on to create ROOT, while Kagami left the village.

Tobi has knowledge of ROOT and so does Kagami, if he is still alive. Tobi has yet to show a Mangekyo and Kagami had not achieved it. Also, the name Tobi could be a mock of Tobirama's decision to make Hiruzen Hokage. Kagami, enraged, would have wanted revenge against the leaf and probably would have set his mind on ruling the world. He might have also helped Itachi massacre the Uchihas in an attempt to gain a Mangekyo, but since none of them were his 'friends' his eye would never fully develop. Kagami also fits the age requirement as Tobi has shown to be OLD as DIRT!


-Obito-
The name Tobi (Spelled Toobi in japanese translation) is an anagram of Obito... But this is kinda' obvious. I also feel that Kakashi would have noticed or that Obito would have tried to recruit him. Also, he was clearly crushed under a whole lot of rocks... But he could have been 'rescued' by Akatsuki, or a group similar to them and reformed in the hopes that he could be brainwashed into destroying the leaf... But, he isn't old enough, gave Kakashi his right eye and Tobi clearly has two sharingan... So it's possible but I doubt it. What reason would he have to slaughter his clan?


-Madara-
Well we see that Madar is clearly dead, as he was revived from death by the Impure World Ressurrection... But we've seen people split into two (Tsuchikage), we've seen people revived (dang near every villain), so why couldn't both occur. Tobi could be a part of Madara that detached before the battle withe Hashirama, but I find it a little unlikely. If he did, then pretty much all of his other story would check out.


-Izuna-
Not gonna' lie, I think it's Izuna.
Izuna would be old enough (by like 100 years). He was supposed to be dead, but he supposedly died on the battle field... After he went to fight with no eyes... WHY would they send a BLIND man to the battlefield during war... It's ridiculous. I think Tobi lied about Izuna (his own) death to cover up his identity. Izuna could have been there when Hashirama and Madara fought. He might have even sabotaged his brother out of spite for his stolen eyes. After the battle, he could have recollected his eyes from the corpse and would have had no trouble getting DNA from Hashirama (TOBI HAS GROWN A CHIA-KAGE) as it was EVERYWHERE. This would explain the lack of the Mangekyo. He wouldn't have an eternal considering the eyes he took weren't actually his brother's. He simply took his back. He would not have used the Mangekyo since it would slowly sap his sight and after returning to the village, he would have been shunned by his family for his actions, giving him a reason to want them all dead. He had motive, he had opportunity and he had the skill to do so... But he'd be ancient... Like 'I'd be better off dead' ancient... So unless he's been body switching, I don't quite know how he'd still be alive...

But yeah, those are my thoughts. Feel free t share yours

But, Obito wear the mask 'cause he didn't want that someone(probably Kakashi) should know that he was alive. Then he started to call himself Madara, so, if he didn't wear the mask, someone could tell that he wasn't Madara...

or maybe Sasuke or Madara jumping from tree to tree looking for Tobi and the nine tails but i think he will give Tobi time to talk (for trolls reading this comment note how i said Tobi i really don't think that is the real Obito unless he is being controlled by some one or some thing and even if it is the real Obito Tobi is still just Tobi to me and Obito is still just Obito nothing more nothign less and this part is not at you unless you were going to troll me for still just calling him Tobi)

So, for those who have been keeping up with the manga, you know that Kishimoto just dropped a bombshell and hinted that Tobi is in fact Obito. Though it is still just speculation, it seems very likely that Obito will be returning (yay), but as an antagonist (boo). Again, still not concrete, since Tobi is clearly a pathological liar, but I digress, Tobito ftw!

-obito-

*MANGA 597 SPOILERS*

*SPOILERS*

-tobi have his eye (manga)
-tobi say "its too late for regrets" "i want to make a world where heroes don't have to make pitiful excuses in front of graves" (manga)
-he slso say "you are just words and no actions" and this is something that obito would say
-tobi seems disappointed when kakashi ask "where did you get that eye?" . maybe he was expecting "who you are?" (he say "... where,you say...")
-also, when tobi attack minato , he can have 18 years (there can be an age difference between kakashi and obito(2-3 years) because obito wasnt a good ninja so maybe he didn't pass the academy for first ! and that fight , i think it happen after 2-3 years of kakashi gaiden)

What If when obito got "smashed" somehow his space time jutsu was activated and the rock really didn't smash him cause the left side of his body was in another dimension

Heads up, people. Chapter 597 just dropped a bombshell on us.

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER

Considering that this IS Tobi, it's best to take what he says with a grain of salt, but he has revealed that he collected his new Sharingan back during the Third Great Ninja War. If he's being truthful, he took Obito's last Sharingan, which explains how Kakashi's Kamui and Tobi's Space-Time Jutsu utilize the same dimension. This could potentially kill the Obito theory and boost the Izuna theory since the Sharingan Tobi lost in his fight with Konan might not have even been his to begin with as well. But like I said, take it with a grain of salt.

EvolutionBreed [2012-07-27 22:26:10 +0000 UTC]

Kagami is a maybe same with Obito because the recent chapters are leaning towards Obito because he says Gai and Kakashi have seen him before so that cancels out Izuna maybe.. I first thought it was Izuna but now I'm not so sure because Gai and Kakashi haven't seen Izuna OR Kagami.. maybe Kagami but they've both seen Obito o.o..

E-Matt [2012-06-10 03:55:07 +0000 UTC]

It does seem most likely Izuna was Tobi the whole time, in the facade of Madara. There is definite motive, he may have also hated the Senju much like his brother, faking his death and hatching this plan.
Seeing Mu (former Tsuchikage) perform the body splitting technique, it's possible Madara did the same during his battle with Hashirama. But Kabuto throws off his plans.

kyoshiroelric [2012-05-30 22:10:26 +0000 UTC]

I can't see it being Kagami, Kagami was after Madara's time, so how would he have intimate knowledge of the guy and of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan which was forgotten during the time he was alive. Edo Tensei Madara knows Tobi, yet he hasn't mentioned anyone else from the Uchiha clan, I think that is a major clue to Tobi's identity, that only Madara would have knowledge of him (still being alive, it isn't like Madara knows what Itachi did so this person would have to be somewhat "immortal" or extremely hard to kill, considering the years that has passed, time isn't a factor here, apparently Tobi will live no matter what is done to him). For all we know, Tobi approached Danzo first the way Itachi approached him.

And as far as the name 'Tobi' goes, its actually comes from a Japanese proverb: "even a hawk can be born from a kite" Tobi meaning kite (can actually mean 'jump' too) while hawk in Japanese is "taka", basically, Tobi was always meant to come into contact with Sasuke, despite Itachi's efforts.

I think it is Izuna. Madara has had Rinnegan before he died which he didn't die in his battle with Hashirama. I think they both planned this. Izuna is old enough to have knowledge of pre-Konoha and Madara's life, Madara showed a deep trust in his brother, they did almost everything together so they both found proof of the Rikudou actually being alive and how to get his power.

What I think happened: Madara and Izuna hatched some kind of plan, Madara went blind - screwing up their plan, Izuna gave his eyes to Madara to keep him strong which kept the Uchiha protected. Izuna went to battle and died purposely (or Madara hid him away), Madara fought Hashirama, used his Rinnegan to create Black Zetsu to look after his brother and made him into the 1st and only Path of Pain or just transplanted Senju DNA into him as well as himself which would have given him Rinnegan too, which he would have given to Nagato according to Madara's order. He stole sharingan from dead Uchiha members. Madara died purposely for some reason, leaving the plan in Izuna's control, time passed, he changed his name and identity since everyone else thinks he's dead or has forgotten about him.

Izuna would have learned of how the clan betrayed Madara, the brother he died for and came to hate betrayal of all sorts which Tobi does hate betrayal. All of Orochimaru's research was based on things that Madara had confirmed by himself in secret, for all we know, Madara was the first ninja scientist. One of the kage should just stop and ask him about the other guy (Tobi)

Kage: If you're Madara, who the hell is the other guy?
Madara: Oh that guy is - look a Senju, must kill!

Madara has ADD. lol

kakuume [2011-11-04 12:32:37 +0000 UTC]

from all those 4 i'd pick izuna or kagami. it can't be madara, because he got resurected (but i'm sure our belove kishimoto finds a way to confuse us even more so that in the end we're all wrong and it IS madara -_-), obito can't be too, because he's dead and i don't see why he should be against konoha O.o. well izuna could be, because he wants to mess with deidara because he stole his eyes xP or kagami because... there's no other left =_=
but it could be someone who's not an uchiha but who stole the eyes :/ i... dunno, i hate it when i get confused -_-

flareose [2011-11-01 20:01:07 +0000 UTC]

Maybe were overlooking something... Obito and Izuna both were born on the same day, being February 10. So maybe that means something. Maybe Obito could be the reincarnation of Izuna probably... Or not lol
To me there are quite a few people that could be Tobi. One of them being Obito, second one being Izuna, third one being Kagami, and last (drum roll please) Zetsu
Strange I know, but don't forget, Zetsu does have the ability to transform into anyone that he sees... So maybe yes?

Oh and did you know that Izuna and Obito both have the same blood type being O
Strange isn't it O.o
