Evil or Not ???

[~Zonta~]

As well all know Naurto is able to sense evil and he was able to sense the Zetsu clones which were trying to kill the shinobi’s of the alliance by using transformation jutsu. But if we look closely zetsu's doesn't seems so evil as compared to say Obito, madara, Orochimaru, Kabuto.

Zetsu if you look at them they are funny and sometimes dense; who were following orders plus they are made up from hasiramas dna so they must not be having evil intent.

He's sorta like a living computer, if you ask me, plus zetsu must have some free will of his own. Being made outta hashi's DNA doesn't make him good, but gives him hid personality.

The fact is that these Zetsu were there with the sole intentions of murdering as many Alliance Shinobi as they possibly can. Even if they were ordered to, it was an evil intent, hence why Naruto could sense them.

Also, I'm not really sure if the clones are as jolly as the other white Zetsu. They seem to be a lot more serious and, well...evil.

 

[Saikyokami]

actual neither are relaly evil nor is madara. the fact remains all he really wants is a world were everyone can be happy. sure hes going about making this the wrong way but I can understand where he is coming from

 

[Kαmi]

I wouldn't say white Zetsu is necessarily evil since he's someone he kinda just does what he's told. That being said, Zetsu sole purpose in the war was to kill off the alliance, this gave Zetsu evil intentions. Naruto can sense evil and malice and sense the alliance was fighting to protect while Zetsu fought to kill, it makes sense that Naruto was able to sense the difference between the Zetsu and the alliance.

^^ agree with this. Zetsus committed the murders ,evil or not, murder is murder. This was why they were considered evil, thus, naruto finding them out.

 

[foxyladyland]

zetsu are just like shinobi , they follow orders.......actions can be violent without evil intent nice thread

This....... ^

 

[kourosh]

it can be plot hole , but their intention was evil

 

[OnPoint]

It's not about sensing 'evil'. It's about sensing negative/dangerous intent. So by possessing the intent to kill those in the shinobi alliance, the Zetsu gave themselves away. It doesn't matter who it is. If they're trying to kill or harm Naruto, he'll be able to sense them.

 

[Jobrjo]

I'd say neutral given an evil purpose.

Zetsu himself said he is an andriod but even if he has his personality and feelings he is less evil as compared to say Kabuto who was hiding in the background and using Edo-tensei no Jutsu but Naruto was able to sense him where he sensed Zetsu who less evil compared to Kabuto.

Kabuto's location was not known to Naruto nor shinobi alliance it was Nagato who had sensed Kabuto and not Naruto so it made me think about it.

Yup they sure were following obito's and Madara's orders but as what we have seen from the manga Naruto did sense the evil intent which they were emitting while intending to harm ninja's but on the other hand we also had edo tensei as well plus the masterminds behind it as well but Naruto only sensed the intent coming from the Zetsu and not from Kabuto or Obito when they were in hiding. Itachi found Kabuto it was thanks to Nagato's sensing ability.

Yeah I see what you point is but still Madara lost his brother and same goes for Hashirama as well so there was always an option to chose but Madara chose the other way around. And even his way is wrong but its also repeating the same history as well IMO

 

[Belphegor]

every character had some reasons to turn evil

 

[Steaktacular]

Their intentions are still there, though.

Even if minimal, it makes sense for Naruto to spot it.

 

[Wind Squid]

Zetsu follows under loveable monster minion trope

 

[Melanee]

I would say it's their intentions, as for their personality, having Hashirama's DNA gives them that playfulness. If they were ordered to kill but had an intent to do something good, then Naruto wouldn't have sensed them probably.

I personally don't see Madara as evil but his intentions are currently not good.

 

[KGB Kakuzu]

I don't think Zetsu (well White Zetsu) is evil at all.....I think it comes down to several playing factors.

1. Zetsu in society: Basically what I'm saying is that Zetsu can't exactly exist in the world naturally (with other humans) becasue he isn't really human when you look at it. As such, I am assuming they, like Kisame, wish for the dream world in order to be accepted.

2. Loyalty: Zetsu was based from Hashirama's DNA...as such they share his goofy personality, but also his loyalty. Instead of that loyalty following Konoha it would be their creator (Madara).

So Naruto senses evil or malicious intent....obviously a Zetsu that is about to kill someone who is basically off guard caries a degree of malice or cruelty on what I feel is a basic level. Zetsu (for the reasons above) is willing to carry out these actions so he exhibits the foul chakra presence or whatever Naruto senses. The same could be said for any Shinobi carrying out an assassination like mission. Sneaking up on an opponent and killing them is a very cold concept, and requires the mindset to kill in order to achieve the goal.

Now some people would say that they are still evil because while carrying out those assassinations, the Zetsu smiled and such....well to counter that I'd say who wouldn't find a sense of success in carrying out orders...Zetsu is rather simple minded and far less complex than other characters. So I think that Hashirama personality of being over goofy is part of the reason there is a smile, but also because Zetsu would be one person closer to achieving Akatsuki's goal and as such a sense of purpose and even acceptance.

In conclusion, Zetsu is basically a textbook shinobi when it comes to combat, and just happens to fall on the side of evil because of loyalty and maybee a dream to be accepted! I can't say he is truly an "evil" character.

They are following an evil being's orders so their actions are in themselves evil.
