Good job, KGB.Naruto Hurricane Chronicles
A) That was a Zetsu Clone compared to Zetsu.
B) Zetsu didn't anticipate his cover having been blown.
C) There are too many different responses to Sakura's question that would have completely kept his cover safe. Instead, he gave the one response that ended up exposing him as a fake.
OT: Some points are valid, others are exaggerated.
1. He didn't solo half the shinobi alliance. On fact, 50,000 was the Zetsu army fatality. 40,000 was the Alliance fatality, and a larger part of that is reflected from the Edo Tensei.
2. He cannot copy abilities. Zetsu has never been shown as someone who breathes. He even noted he doesn't have to eat. As a plant like life form, he can survive in water. In the water dome, Zetsu basically fuzed with Kisame.. upon ending the water dome, Zetsu became Kisame, and Kisame sectioned off, hiding in Samehade. He never performed a Suiton Jutsu as Kisame.
3. Anyone can make an infinite number of clones given the chakra.
Regardless, Zetsu is the most underrated Akatsuki member. He's stronger than Hidan, and arguably Konan. The pinnacle of Zetsu's power comes in the fact that unlike anyone else in this series: Zetsu is a Ninja.
First, Zetsu will always discover his opponent first: Mayfly and Black Zetsu allows him to virtually become the land.
Second, Upon finding his enemy, he can do the following: 1) Make White Zetsu Clones, 2) Analyzing his pattern, plant Zetsu seedlings that sap chakra.
1) The clones can then quickly move to the closest unit allied to his opponent, and then stealthily absorb their chakra. Due to Mayfly's speed... this is done relatively shortly.
All the While, Zetsu appearing as both his White and Black half, can begin a feint assault with Mokuton on a level to keep Mei (who has ranged heavily destructive material), a Swordsmen of the Mist, Minato's bodyguards, and eventually even KCM Naruto: only losing as he stayed above ground more than a more strategic combat style of moving underground and making Mokuton ambushes.
During such a time, the transformed clones can arrive as "reinforcements".... as the "Allied Counter-Attack" begins.... the Clones can go for the kill, or move to make the opponent vulnerable, and unable to doge. They can even play victim themselves, and make the opponent sacrifice his or herself.
2) Once again with Mayfly's speed, Zetsu can move rapidly to any location. Analyzing a movement pattern, as a sensor, Zetsu could formulate a series of plausible movement locations and prepare Zetsu spores. During something like the above plan, the Zetsu Spores can activate to make things even easier.
To put it simply, Zetsu can defeat people way stronger than him because of one simple fact: unlike the rest of the Narutoverse, Zetsu is a Ninja.
By utilizing stealth, Zetsu has the advantage and start against virtually every opponent. He also has a set of offensive techniques that are designed to create confusion and chaos within enemy ranks. He even has the offensive power of Mokuton which also absorbs chakra.
Zetsu is a boss Man-Plant.
Considering that they require Ninjutsu (Susanoo) to be wielded, and the Uchiha who possess Susanoo are Sage Descendants easily can imply they were of Hagoromo Ootsutsuki's design.
Furthermore, the spiritual weapons have only ben embodied when a Ninjutsu was activated (a pre-requisite and catalyst). Since the use of ninjutsu origionates with Hagoromo... his the Progenitor of the weapons.
