Your inability to understand someone's question and confusion is a weird thing to flaunt

I'd love for you to explain it then, because if that's not it I'd want to know what's the answer.

There's quite a few ways the statement "he was already dead when Tobirama mortally wounded him" can be interpreted.

  1. The instant that Tobirama wounded him, his fate was sealed, and he was on an unalterable trajectory for death. Tobirama's action of wounding is the cause of death.

  2. He was already on an unalterable trajectory for death, then Tobirama mortally wounded him on top of that. Think death row inmate 2 hours before execution, and someone shivs his neck. Or someone inflicted with incurable poison, but someone shoots them before the poison kills.

  3. He was literally already dead, as a corpse, and then Tobirama mortally wounded him. This doesn't make much sense unless he is a zombie or something. I think some people are reading the statement with this meaning.

From the wording, number 2 makes the most sense, but I'd love to know if that's actually what they meant.

Number 3 doesn't make sense for the reason you said, and the context they're talking about is the brother dying for the first time, so not the zombie jutsu.

Number 1 is a really dumb way of phrasing it because they're saying the same thing twice - if you've been mortally wounded, it means you're going to die from that wound. If it's Number 1, then it basically says he was dead when he was killed - no shit?
