The Zetsu Mega Convo Thread

[Huey Freeman]

There's a difference between being weak (when compared to something else) and being weakened. If Naruto's chakra caused Yamato's wood jutsu to grow in a positive manner, I don't see why the chakra alone would cause a Zetsu to violently grow out of control into a tree. Control has to be the factor. The wood jutsu had been formed by Yamato and wasn't unstable because Yamato was the one that controlled it. You yourself said that Zetsu ahve control of their cells and jutsu. So, you can't really say it happens because they're weak. If that were the case, then they shouldn't be able to control anything. Zetsu can absorb chakra can transfer it and everything. The chakra is a contributing factor into turning into a tree, but only after the Zetsu has been struck dead and the cells no longer are controlled. If a Zetsu manages to steal/drain the chakra, I can only see it making the Zetsu a lot stronger until proven otherwise.

I get the difference between strength and control, but in the manga it has been stated many times that one must have a certain amount of stamin/normal chakra to sustain certain supplemental chakras like sage chakra, bijuu chakra, mokuton chakra. When Sakura states the the white Zetsu are weaker I think she mean in terms of the amount of mokuton chakra they can posses. Meaning any extra will throw them out of balance and there's no way they can control it.

Here is a hypothetical example to hopefully clarify my point. Kakashi and even Sakura has to have amazing chakra control to perform the jutsu they do, but I doubt either of them could handle any supplemental chakra regardless of how much chakra control they have. They just don't have a container big enough to hold any extra.

So it's all hypothetical but i think the white Zetsu just don't have a very large chakra container for lack of a better phrase. Maybe that's why they merged here. To increased their container....or close it.

What on earth does the poll even mean?

^Maybe we need an equally absurd poll decide.

don't know if it has already been said...but i can't wait for a zetsy flashback.imagine all that he has seen...being with tobi and all.good bit of grime will be shown...

The real Zetsu is certainly not dead in my opinion...
Like someone else said, we didn't even get a flashback, and a Zetsu flashback would explain a LOT!!

And, I talked about it in another thread, but I thought it might be a good idea to bring it again in this thread.
I get the feeling that we are understimating the value of Zetsu.

In this page, we see Tobi using only "one zetsu" to convince Kabuto to help him:

So, Zetsu must have a big value if Tobi thinks that promising only one would convince Kabuto.
So what do you really his Zetsu?

I'm thinking that Zetsu might be an exact replica of Hashimara or a mix of both Hashirama and Madara (Black/White), or something like that...
Maybe it's thanks to Zetsu that Tobi can use the Rinnegan, so that would really spike Kabuto interest...

i've come to believe that he is siamese twins...connected they are one form/body true...but they are two different beingspersonalities.i've never bought in to the fact he was manufactured by tobi or madara.even orochimaru didn't create a living being...we know he tampered with a lot of things.besides puppets and clones everything else has been or is a true person...some weird yes but shinobi none the less...kakazu and kisame are a few examples.
