These White Zetsu had once been ordinary people in ancient times. After being transformed by the God Tree, they now qualified as humans in a rather unusual state. That was precisely why, once they merged into trees, even an exceptional Sensor Ninja could not detect them.
Unfortunately, these little tricks were completely useless against Shin Uchiha.
Without damaging the trunk at all, Shin Uchiha grabbed White Zetsu by the neck and hauled him straight out of the tree.
"White Zetsu, where is Madara Uchiha now?"
Faced with Shin Uchiha's question, White Zetsu showed no fear at all. He stared at him with pale yellow eyes and said cheerfully:
"Shin Uchiha, you really can detect us White Zetsu."
When White Zetsu answered with something entirely unrelated, Shin Uchiha frowned slightly and tightened his grip.
"I asked you where Madara Uchiha is."
But what Shin Uchiha had not expected was that, the moment he finished speaking, the White Zetsu in his grasp suddenly began flailing his limbs.
"Ah, it hurts! It hurts! I can't breathe!! Ah!! I'm dead!"
With those words, White Zetsu tilted his head to one side and even stuck out his tongue, pretending to be dead.
Watching White Zetsu's ridiculous antics, Shin Uchiha did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Every White Zetsu was a lunatic, and their minds were linked. Apart from the one accompanying Madara Uchiha, who was the real White Zetsu, all the others were White Zetsu Clones.
That was why these White Zetsu had no fear of death even when captured, and could still fool around like this.
Seeing White Zetsu play dead, a faint smile crept onto Shin Uchiha's lips.
Then Shin Uchiha activated his Rinnegan and placed his hand on White Zetsu's head.
