Back to last night.💥👺 🎉👻
Zetsu had just left Konoha, eagerly on his way to inform Nagato.
Zetsu hadn't noticed the faint trace of Soul Energy on his body.
He should have, since his true body was a being made of Soul Energy.
The black part of Zetsu's body was his true self. The white part was merely the body he inhabited—one of the foolish, goofy White Zetsu army.
Black Zetsu was the real him.
But he was simply called Zetsu.
Without Zetsu, there would be no name White Zetsu.
Zetsu usually paid little attention to the White Zetsu he inhabited.
He kept its consciousness firmly suppressed.
He didn't share his mind with it. Who would want to share their consciousness with an idiot?
That gave Kimura Takuya an opening. When he'd helped Uchiha Sasuke awaken his Sharingan, Takuya had already sensed a dark Soul Energy spying from afar.
Kimura Takuya immediately realized that the only person in the entire Ninja World with energy like that who also liked to spy was Zetsu of the Akatsuki.
The reason he'd detected it was that Zetsu had overheard that Itachi was a spy. His shock had been so great that he'd given himself away.
Kimura Takuya then used the Shadow Clone Technique he'd stationed in the village to plant Soul Energy along the route they'd take back.
As long as Zetsu showed himself where the Soul Energy had been placed, a trace of it would cling to him.
To keep Zetsu from noticing, Kimura Takuya had also whipped around the moment Zetsu triggered the Soul Energy, pretending he'd sensed someone spying.☮♕ 💘ඏ
This distracted Zetsu, leaving him no time to sense the Soul Energy before he left.
And so that trace of Soul Energy quickly fused with the White Zetsu's body.
