It is actually Shadow Naruto from an alternate dimension which was destroyed by the massive emo field generated by the Uchiha clan. That's why he has a black hole in his eye, its the result of escaping the lack hole of emoness which swallowed his dimension.
@tayz Huh, didn't even know there was actually a Shadow Naruto of some sort.. guess I have to pay a bit more attention to the side-stuff sometimes haha.
Tobi being an Uzumaki make sense because he knows a lot about the 9-Tails and he knew how to control it with the sharingan too. So he's either an Uchiha or an Uzumaki with the eyes of somebody else. I remember that Tobi once explained that people from the Uzumaki clan are born with tons of chakra and strong bodies, that's why they were always selected to be the jinchuriki of the 9-Tails. So sharingan shouldn't be a bother to Tobi like it is for Kakashi.
Uzumaki's are descendents of Sage of 6 Paths through the younger son, who has the Rinnengan, where as the Uchiha are descendants of the other son, who had the Sharingan. Since Tobi has the Sharingan, and not the Rinnegan at first I don't think he is an Uzumaki.
Why? Obito died as a young teenager. Even if he was revived, he's still a corpse. He can't just automatically age just like that. If you see Tobi's face, he has the face of an old man.
Only two people to ever possess a Sharingan outside of the Uchiha was Danzo and Kakashi.
Only people related to Naruto's bloodline besides The Uchiha's being a distant bloodline relative of Naruto and the Senju is Karin, Nagato and Kushina Uzimaki.
Only possible person to be Tobi Is Kagami Uchiha since he knows Kakashi and Guy very well and who was part of 2nd Hokage's team called TOBIrama. I think that name there should be more than enough. Tobi at some point during the Uchiha Clan Massacre met with Danzo who was part of team TOBIrama.
Tobi can't be Madara's brother because Madara killed his younger brother and took his eyes so he wouldn't go blind and too strengthen his Mangekyo Sharingan.
It cannot be The Sage of the Six Paths younger brother because he is the 1st Senju in the bloodline.
***SPOILERS for those that don't read the manga From: "Kishimoto: Tobi’s Identity Revealed Within Next Few Weeks"
to: "Naruto Creator Says Main Villan Identity Revealed In Next Few Weeks"
wow, what a fail tittle change this is... For a moment I thought it was going to be a new character but is just the identity of Tobi. I bet he is an elder from Konoha that extended his life through various experiments or something. Maybe a disciple of Madara that no knew existed. But the thing is, what is gonna happen now that Madara's on the loose? No one can stop him since now he controls his own Edo Tensei, he's practically immortal and he is powerful as hell too. Not even the 5 Kages united can stand against him.
It could be Danzo... he is an elder that wanted power and was twisted. he's dead ya, but he could have done the thing like Orochimaru and came back to life.
Danzo is DEAD. He's never been dead before or has never been resurrected after. Also when Sasuke Fought Danzo, Tobi was also their , so It can't be Danzo
NO matter how Kishi tries to surprise us it will fail like usual. I bet people already guessed who it is. Either way it will be somebody we thought was dead since Naruto is basically a zombie manga/anime now.
I really hope it makes sense and Kishi pulls the reveal off tastefully. It better not be Obito though.. trying to explain that would just royally suck however it would explain why Kakashi is there fighting masked man with Naruto.
2-3 more years of NAruto and We get to find out who Tobi is SO soon! well Acutally Its About time. If its obito, izuna, sages of 6 paths kid, or someone completly new I hope they give a proper explaination.
hey smokeeye. i haven't seen you on psn in a while.
that's another interesting guess, but wasn't he about itachi's age? that seems a little young considering "tobi" was an adult by the time of naruto's birth.
100°
he could be an entirely new character .
but myself i have a gut feeling he is a Uzumaki like Naruto
But one thing is for sure, Tobi is from Konoha.

Cannot be Shisui Uchiha because he was murdered

You will be surprised when you see who Tobi is, I stake my ninja pride on it!!!
He's not mine though.
I personally don't care who it is, as long as the back story is good.
BTW, wassup Auen1? Gamepro alums ftw!
