Why is Madara supposedly dead?


According to Kurama, the Juubi's Jinchuuriki Wouldn't die when the Bijuu are
extracted from him thanks to the Gedou Mazou.

So how could Madara have passed away?




That's because the Gedo Mazou itself was extracted as well (and sealed on the
new moon on the other dimension).

Madara didn't have the Gedo Mazou in him to provide life force when all of the
Bijuu were extracted.
