>can teleport to any location>can phase through anything>has genjutsu strong enough subdue a perfect jinchuriki>has genjutsu strong enough subdue any tailed beast>had all these things 12 years before the series startedAside from Nagato for the gedo statue why did he even need the Akatsuki?
>>289312065What
>>289312065there needed to be a series of lower level challenges for the protagonists to clash with while they powered up to face him
>>289312065He had like 15 years to take back his other sharingan from a guy that failed to protect the person most precious to him.If he did, he would be unstoppable.
>>289312065At the very least he needed a bunch of capable people to sit there for days sealing each beast into the gedo statue.
Obito being behind it all was an extremely stupid plot thread that contributed to the series falling into the sewer that it did.
>>289312065We can deduce that Obito feared certain ninja that could potentially kill him, Jiraiya for instance, because Itachi pretended to fear Jiraiya, and Obito fears Itachi. If Obito dies then the plan is at great risk of not being fulfilled, so it's better to send Nagato and a cohort of elite ninjas on the forefront of the crusade. At the end of the day, they needed many members to fuse chakra into the statue, as even with about 10 members actively manipulating the Jinchuriki's chakra it still took 3 days.We can assume this is Obito's general strategy because he does this blatantly with Sasuke. Using Sasuke to battle dangerous enemies, even admitting that he wanted Sasuke to "weaken the 5 kage" so that Obito could capture them. Maybe he could solo them all, but he was very serious about the keikaku so one would reason that he'd have no problem playing it safe like this and not wanting to risk his life.
