I'm still confused with tobi/zetsu

[twistedlink]

When sasori got killed tobi went around acting like a **** in front of zetsu with NOBODY else around.

It appears now that zetsu and tobi are best buds and zetsu always knew of tobi being leader and zetsu appears to be tobis right hand man.

So why were both of them playing a charade to thin air??

It makes absolutely NO SENSE.

I understand it was shocking for the reader to see a goof become the leader, but writing a charade just for the audience is crappy writing and not really a good idea...Because it makes no sense for the narutoverse itself for two people to play a charade to TECHNICALLY nobody!!!

Anyone got any ideas/theories to why they were doing this?

what charade??

They werent friends yet...

They werent friends yet...

Naaa...i dont thnik so...i guess its just a blunder

Madara dint realize state of akatsuki until oro and then deidara died...
Till the death of deidara he hide his true form, but after that he thought things will go out of hands and decided to show true form.....

Eh...the way zetsu and tobi are suggest theyve known each other for years...

For example tobi says "time to show kisame our true plans and who i really am"

and zetsu keeps going on about tobis plans etc.

It seems tobi was the leader of akatsuki from the very beginning and pain and zetsu knew this.

so i find it very odd zetsu and tobi played a little charade for seemingly just the audience, which is strange.

maybe he was more relaxed back then... the akatsuki still had lots of members, he could stay in the shadows... and just be himself now he's more focused and more serious... I personally dont care about that, and its definetly not bad writing... "tobi is a good boy!" is the most popular fraze in the Naruto if not in all of manga...
