I just want to touch back on the fact that Zetsu was Kaguya's creation, not Madara's, and how that affects Madara's creation of the Zetsu army using the Hashirama statue.
We were always told that Zetsu were Hashi clones of low quality. However that never made sense considering they looked NOTHING like him. What the Kaguya discoveries told us is that they weren't really Hashi clones, just creations of the tree USING the life force of Hashirama to take form. Madara always referred to the Gedo Mazo as the catalyst for the Hashirama statue.... yet it was the exact opposite. The Hashirama DNA that Madara connected to the Mazo was the catalyst for a new Zetsu army to be made.
We know for a fact that the Juubi, the Mazo and the Tree were all essentially the same thing. Since the tree created the Zetsu, the Mazo simply needed a life force supply in order to do the same thing, considering it was empty of chakra. Madara connecting the Mazo to the statue allowed life force to be channeled and resulted in miniature branches to be formed from them.
The Zetsu clones were not actually clones of Hashi, just copies of the original Tree's Zetsu's formed by Hashi's chakra. They had minor forms of wood jutsu since they were made from his chakra, but they were not exact clones of his. If anything, it further clarifies a matter that was reasonably suspicious before. Remember the scene where Obito estimates he had 100,000 Zetsu at his disposal? They were linked to a small form of the great Tree.
The roots/ branches were a result of the Tree (gedo Mazo) being fuelled by Hashi DNA.
Thanks for reading as always.
