Revision as of 20:58, 15 September 2012
| This article is about Zetsu's personal technique. For the general skill, see Body Replacement Technique. |
This technique allows White Zetsu to create an exact copy of anyone, simply by touching them. The clone used for the technique becomes a perfect duplicate, even possessing chakra identical to that of the one they are impersonating. The clone, which is controlled remotely by the original,[1] is not strong enough to fight an extended battle. As such, its primary purpose is to function as a diversion. The clone retains the appearance of the person even after its "death" and reverts to its true form only after the technique is released by White Zetsu himself.
A variation of this technique is also used by the soldiers of the White Zetsu Army. Rather than creating clones, the soldiers instead transform themselves after absorbing their target's chakra. Also unlike the original's version, the technique is seemingly dispersed once the transformed clone is dealt a significant amount of damage.[2] 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. This technique can also copy a person's dōjutsu, at least in appearance.[3]
