Spoiler:

Seiyuu

Japanese version: Nobuo Tobita
English Dub: Brian Beacock (white part), Michael Sorich (black part)

Physical traits

Zetsu's head appears to be enveloped in a large venus flytrap, which can also envelop the rest of his body. It is unconfirmed whether this plant is part of his body, a summon, or something else such as a parasite. He has a two-toned body, much like the character Two-Face from Batman. The dark (right) side of Zetsu's face and shoulders has several white spots that may or may not serve a purpose. Zetsu seems to have a split personality, as the black half of his face speaks in a deep voice (written in Katakana) while the white side in a lighter voice (Kanji and Kana). The two halves also seem to converse with each other (both verbally and through thought), and occasionally differ in opinion.

Powers/Techniques

Zetsu has a special sort of vision that allows him to see objects far away

Zetsu’s jutsus are still a mystery, however he appears to frequently use the "Hiru Banshō: Bōka no Jutsu, 蛭万象・防火の術 ( Leech All Creation: Attack Prevention)" technique, which allows him to fuse with anything that does not move, such as trees, rocks, and the ground, allowing him to travel great distances very quickly.

Kagerou 蜉蝣 : the jutsu Zetsu uses to vanish and reapper in/from the ground.

Keitai Henka (形態変化) (manipulation of shape/form)
Keitai Henka manipulates the chakra form itself to create the "shape" of the ninjutsu and controls the power and area effect of the chakra. While Seishitsu Henka emphasizes and brings out the form of the chakra's elements, this particular technique is largely dependent on the user's conceptualizations, the skill's system, method of mastering it, etc. Many of the skills now are the results of the achievements of the earlier users.

Recording techique?
It has appears that Zetsu has the ability to "record" the things he sees, as noted when he tells Madara Uchiha that he had recorded the whole battle between Sasuke and Itachi. It is unknown how he is able to show these "recordings".

Body-split Jutsu?!
Zetsu has also shown the ability to split into two halves, so that his two personalities can act independently.

Spore Jutsu?!
He is also able to use a time-delayed spore jutsu to grow into a mushy binding mass around several individuals at once, thereby sucking their chakra out ; in addition, it can even be used to replenish someone else's chakra, as demonstrated from how one of the spores replenished Sasuke's chakra.

Unknown Stats

Interesting information

Zetsu engages in reconnaissance.
Zetsu is the only member of Akatsuki to act without a partner on a regular basis.
Zetsu appears to extend a sixth-type sense from his body to the area around him, rather than by relying on his eyesight alone.
Zetsu is also the only Akatsuki member who is able to move during the Bijuu sealing ritual, a skill which he solely holds. This makes him a lookout during the ritual.
Zetsu is able to record scenes just by observing them.
Also, Zetsu serves as a sort of superior to other members, as they often report directly to him instead of the actual leader, Pain.

Kishimoto on Zetsu

Zetsu fanart by Pirate Cashoo

Quote:

"I originally wanted to make Akatsuki into a group of monsters. Zetsu is modeled after an insectivorous plant. I originally wanted Akatsuki to be a group of individuals with close to no human characteristics. I decided to make Zetsu half black and half white to better show his double personality."

Appearances in the manga

Zetsu first appeared in Naruto on the last two pages of Chapter 234, where he was watching the fight between Naruto and Sasuke at the Valley of End. He "sprouted" from the ground and commented on how interesting the current situation was.He reported directly towards the Akatsuki Leader, informing him on the status of Sasuke Uchiha.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/234/20/

In Chapter 238 we see a silhouette of Zetsu telling the leader of Akatsuki that Orochimaru has obtained the Sharingan now that Sasuke has successfully left Konoha.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/238/18-19/

We don't hear from Zetsu again until Chapter 255 when all of Akatsuki meet to perform the unsealing jutsu on Gaara. This is where we find out that Zetsu is the bearer of the ring 亥 (boar).

Zetsu is asked by the leader to be the lookout for their base.

http:www.onemanga.com/Naruto/255/03/

This is when he spots Team Gai + Pakkun on their way to sabotage Akatsuki's plans.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/255/10/

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/255/12/

In Chapter 261, after the "clone" diversions of Itachi and Kisame were defeated by Teams Gai and Kakashi, Zetsu was ordered to dispose of the bodies. He finds the two men used for the jutsu (one of them being Yuura) and eats them.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/261/11/

In Chapter 280, he was then seen after the battle of Sasori and Chiyo/Sakura. He is accompanied by a young man dressed in all black with an orange mask, named Tobi. They are looking for the rings of defeated members, Deidara and Sasori. Tobi finds Sasori's ring and asks if he can be a new member, to which Zetsu agrees, saying "Tobi is a good boy" but then his other voice disagrees, saying that it's not so easy to be a member of Akatsuki.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/280/18/

In Chapter 281, the two later find Deidara's severed hand with his ring on it, but Deidara who survived, approaches them and demands his hand back from Tobi. They fight as Zetsu watches in amusement.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/281/15/

Zetsu appears once again in Chapter 314, surprising Hidan and Kakuzu from the ground after they defeated the Nibi Jinchuuriki. He takes her body away, but not before making fun of Hidan's ritual. He tells them indirectly that he only trusts himself and that he is lonely.

Spoilers : For those following the japanese manga

Spoiler:

In Chapter 353, it is supposed that he observed the fight between Team 7 and Kakuzu as he was able to tell Kisame that they were killed by the Leaf ninja ; namely Kakashi and the 9 tails jinchurikki, Naruto.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/353/011/

It also appears that he observed Sasuke when he was recruiting members for then Team Hebi.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/353/015/

In Chapter 363, once again, he provided information of Deidara's fight against Sasuke.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/363/08/

In Chapter 383, Zetsu is then seen after Pein's battle with Jiraiya. Pein explains that Jiraiya showed up out of nowhere shortly after Madara ordered him to capture Naruto. One side of Zetsu asked if he could go with him, but the other side wanted to go watch Sasuke's and Itachi's fight instead.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/383/14/

In Chapter 388, Zetsu appears again to witness the Sasuke Vs Itachi fight, with his face appearing on the wall.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/388/03/

In Chapter 395, after the Uchiha brothers' fight, he reappeared beside Tobi to report on the fight, before leaving together with him.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/395/14/

After Tobi has a meeting with Team Taka, he meets Zetsu at a bridge, and shares information of his discussion with them. It is interesting how Zetsu opted for his presence out of the meeting, and stayed outside instead; preferring to allow Tobi to share the details instead when he is out.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/404/16/

In Chapter 417, Tobi meets with Zetsu and Kisame again in the hideout.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/417/11/

In Chapter 419, Zetsu is seen sealing the captured "HachiBee" into the statue with Tobi and Kisame. The white half complains that the sealing is taking longer than expected due to the small number involved in the sealing.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/419/11/

The white-half also laughed when the "Hachibee" turned out to be a tentacle.

ZETSU'S Funny Moments in the Manga

#1

The two halves of Zetsu are arguing between themselves on whether to allow Tobi to join Akatsuki, with the black half of Zetsu comments that "Tobi is a good boy."

#2

Deidara:"Tobi...I only let things go 3 times...next time you say something, I'll set you a cause of death...un.
Tobi:"hmm...most likely death by explosion.
Zetsu:" That's...3 times...

#3

Orochimaru emerges from the one of the eight-headed Yamata's mouth and the white side of Zetsu comments : "Always with the barfing stuff and the coming out of snakes mouths...He grosses me out."

#4

Tobi is already by Sasuke’s side, it seems he got there instantly. Zetsu appears a few seconds later. Tobi complains of his tardiness and Zetsu jokes "Well, I’m sorry for not being able to move at the freaking speed of light".

#5

Yamato recognizes Zetsu as another Akatsuki member listed in Kabuto’s file book. Zetsu reports that Sasuke has won and that Itachi is dead. The news shocks all of the Konoha ninja below, but Tobi claims it was what he had predicted all along. Zetsu goes on to say that Sasuke has collapsed and is probably fading away fast. Naruto is alarmed by this news and loudly demands Zetsu, who he refers to as Aloe Vera, to reveal Sasuke’s location.

#6

"Hahaha tentacle!!" was the exclamation made as the white-half of Zetsu laughed when the "Hachibee" which they were supposed to be sealing into the Bijuu statue turned out to be a tentacle.

#7

Black-half of Zetsu: "The Five Kages are a bunch of fools!" was the comment he made in jest when they failed to detect his spore jutsu.

Zetsu Poem

by KojiDarth

You spy and try to take all our base
You even eat the people you meet
From start Kishi made you seem to be in the lead
But come forth the manga the other members took your steam
And no you are nowhere to be seen
And Kishi has denied you your time
And now you will soon rise
And maybe we will see
What the story behind you it seems
Even if you may be two
You still keep your cool
You may say Tobi is a good boy
But it happens that hes a bad boy
So in the future we will see you fight
And by Kishi you might die
But our hopes lie in you living
But as for your comrades it seems faint
That any will come and help you in your time of need
But remember this dear plant
Someday you will have your light

ZETSU LOLS AT YOU

Well, I joined the other random nin FC you made, so I guess I'll join this one too.

And I like how Zetsu is basically Akatsuki's camera-nin.

*gasp* How dare thee mock Hatake Sakumo by calling him random. lol Zetsu would make a good security guard.

Oh alright, not that random, but he does get mentioned randomnly, I seriously wasn't expecting any mention of Sakumo for at least 50 chapters or so.

By the way, what does Zetsu mean? I don't think tongue really fits him that well, Zetsu in HxH is a stealth technique (and stealth seems to be Zetsu's forte), maybe there's some other meaning?

The 21st Hokage · 04-06-2005, 03:55 PM

Im willing to join after all Im hooked on too Akatsuki I wanna know the leaders name when they introduce him.

Hagi · 04-06-2005, 03:56 PM

wow that was quick, zetsu is a badass can't wait to see him use some of his plant jutsu's. i shall join

Chillin · 04-06-2005, 03:57 PM

It does seem like Zetsu's forte is stealth. After all he did hide out watching Naruto and Sasuke fight, and even Kakashi did not notice his presence. I do wonder what is that whole deal with his body being two tone

I just found out that the same kanji for tongue can also mean reed. So now it does have to do with Zetsu. =P
