Why doesn't current Obito use Mokuton?

[Armathyx]

It's been made more than obvious that Obito was capable of using Mokuton, and quite efficiently so as stated Zetsu, when he was young. So why hasn't he been using it ever since he appeared in the series? Especially now against Kakashi's team?

Cause Kishi said so.

I haven't seen spiral zetsu around maybe it has something to do with that. Maybe only him had the ability to let people use his body.

Because we all know Obito did not break the rock and he did not use wood release he was only able to do those things using spiral zetsu's body.

he was in zestu's body and zestu is created from hashirama cells, so Tobi could have use all his abilities why he was inside of the body. but there is some more explanation to come, you just need to wait and you will see

You have to understand, its very hard for him to obtain wood since rin has passed.

But seriously, who knows he probably is holding it back, you never reveal your strongest weapon until the very end.
