Young Xehanort clearly has some idea about the keyblade, but remarks that he doesn't have Master Xehanort's yet. The fact he identifies Master Xehanort as his own being, as opposed to his older self, is intriguing enough as it is. I've seen a number of theories stating that Xehanort may have been body hopping for centuries hoping to start a new keyblade war, but why would it take him this long and why would he have spent a lifetime as Xehanort researching it? You could put it down to memory loss over time but I call bullshit.
Young Xehanort clearly is not the same as Master Xehanort, now when Dream Drop Distance came out I couldn't help but wonder why he would chose to bring a version of himself that could not already wield, it's a little nonsensical. But then the penny dropped, a "version" of you must be at the destination, by version this puts another limit on time traveling meaning that two of the same person can not be brought to the present. Notice all of the time travellers are different incarnations of Xehanort, all of them defined by something. Ansem is a heartless, Xemnas is a nobody and Master Xehanort is the complete being. So why was this pre-wielding Young Xehanort chosen? Because something happened to him when he acquired his infamous goat keyblade. Notice Master Xehanort's ears in comparison to his younger selves. Young Xehanort is DIFFERENT from Master Xehanort, hence his unusual behavior in the new re:coded cutscene. This is something we have to keep in mind.
Now to the question at hand, if Master Xehanort (or lets say all incarnations of Xehanort seeing as they are obviously connected regardless of difference) was the sixth tomeless foreteller, why would Young Xehanort not know about it? Why would he ever need to spend his entire life seeking knowledge about this war?
If MX & YX were the same sixth tomeless foreteller, why is Young Xehanort different from his older incarnation?
Just wanted to put this up for discussion as I really wasn't buying the idea of him hopping bodies for generations, but I feel that we have enough evidence to suggest Xehanort obtained his keyblade somewhere, he hasn't had it for thousands of years in different vessels.
