The technique involves the summoning of dead souls from the afterlife back into the real world - that's right, the user can essentially summon and co control the dead. Normally Kuchiyose (summoning) involves the use of the caster's blood as compensation for the request, but Edo Tensei is different. To perform this technique, the user must first acquire some of the DNA of the person they intend to revive. This basically amounts to grave-robbing, although blood stains or organs salvaged after the target's death also work.
It is important to keep in mind the soul of the intended revived must also reside in the pure world, as those whose soul has been consumed by the Shinigami (Death God), for example, cannot be resurrected. Next, a living sacrifice is required for the soul of the resurrected to use as a vessel. The ninja will sacrifice a living person to provide the vessel that the dead soul will inhabit. The dead body will then be encased in ash and dirt to resemble the soul of the person that was resurrected. When the ninja wishes to recall the souls, a portal will open in the ground and the caskets holding the bodies will appear. When the caskets open the bodies will be gray and in a state of minor decay. At this point the dead souls are able to remember their past life, but they are at the complete submission and command of the one who summoned them.
One final act in the form of a simple seal will fully wipe out their conscious and make them under the command of the one who summoned them. This same seal allows the summoner to see the world through the eyes of their slave at any time they wish. In order to secure control over the summoned soul, the ninja will place a fuda (charm/tag) of some form into the head of the body. This will then give vitality back to the body and make it a pure killing machine. One of the main benefits of this dark jutsu is that when a portion of the dead body is damaged, the ash and dust will merely return and fix the damaged body part in seconds, essentially making the souls truly undead.
Because of all this, the revived are impossible to kill by normal means. Any damage they receive will regenerate, be it lost limbs or complete disintegration. Not even killing the summoner will get rid of them. Truly one of the darkest techniques known within the shinobi world.
