"White Zetsu?!"
Qian's heart stirred, and he instantly recognized the true nature of the monster before him.
It was none other than the special life-form created by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and later modified by Uchiha Madara. One could also call it a puppet—White Zetsu.
And this was a White Zetsu that had undergone special enhancement.
Otherwise, with White Zetsu's average strength, it would never have reached the level of a jonin.
And once he recognized his identity, some things that had not made sense before could now be explained.
For example, why was the other party's disguise so perfect?
The answer was simple. This was precisely one of White Zetsu's abilities, the "Disguise Technique."
On another timeline, during the Fourth Ninja World War, large numbers of White Zetsu had relied on this move to blend into the Allied Shinobi Forces, even triggering a crisis of trust.
One had to know that this was the Allied Shinobi Forces. There were far too many ninja within it, and naturally, they lacked no kinds of methods.
Even so, in the end, they actually still had to rely on Naruto's perception of malice to distinguish which ones were White Zetsu.
From this, it was clear just how powerful White Zetsu's disguise ability truly was!
Therefore, the fact that he had not been able to tell at once was entirely understandable.
And just as Qian was deep in thought, an aura suddenly appeared not far away.
Qian turned his head to look and saw that, not far ahead, a figure had emerged from the roots of a large tree.
Half of his body was black and half white, and something like a Venus flytrap sat atop his head, wrapping his head within it.
With that appearance, if it was not Zetsu, who else could it be?
