The user of this technique becomes a perfect duplicate, even possessing chakra identical to that of the one they are impersonating along with anything they might be wearing. They can also copy their victim's abilities.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 473, pages 6-7</ref><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 558, page 16</ref><ref>''Naruto: Shippūden'' episode 279</ref> A clone, which is controlled remotely by the original,<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 505, page 11</ref> is not strong enough to fight an extended battle; as such, its primary purpose is to function as a diversion. The user retains the appearance of the person even after its "death". The user reverts to their true form only after the technique is released voluntarily. Once [[Orochimaru]] took over the body of a Zetsu clone, he used this technique to take on his original appearance.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 619, page 1</ref> A variation of this technique is also used by the soldiers of the [[White Zetsu Army]]. Unlike the original's version, the technique is seemingly dispersed once the transformed clone is dealt a significant amount of damage.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 540, page 8</ref> While transformed, the faces of the White Zetsu Army clones can change to the appearance of something between their true face and that of the one they are impersonating. == Trivia == * In the anime, this technique was performed by White Zetsu having his clone make physical contact with its target, rather than White Zetsu doing it himself.<ref name="animesubstitute">''Naruto: Shippūden'' episode 217</ref> * In the manga, the clone used as a substitute for [[Kisame Hoshigaki]] resembles a regular parasite clone.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 487, page 15</ref> In the anime however, the clone possesses the venus flytrap-like extensions that protrude from the side of the original and his black counterpart, which have never been seen on any other clone.<ref name="animesubstitute"/> * In the anime, one of the White Zetsu Army clones was seen absorbing its [[Neji Hyūga|victim]]'s chakra for use with this technique by sucking it in through its mouth while restraining him, rather than through physical contact alone.<ref>''Naruto: Shippūden'' episode 266</ref> == References == <references/> [[es:Jutsu: Sustitución]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
