You know what I think Zetsu's abilities are?
He has a sword named Zangetsu and he can transform into something that gives him super speed and strength.

I got the idea from when Zetsu had his long monologue and was talking about the big countries kind of team up and leave the small villages out to die. He could possibly be the last one from his clan.Originally Posted by Abdula
Oh so you picked up on that, not bad. Not bad at all.
Oh just as a disclaimer, I'm not saying you're right or that you're wrong. I just like your idea.

I thought it was pretty obvious he is from the hidden village of technology from what we saw of him talking.
... right?
Oh ya, and if we are talking about one of the members not having a partner I figure it would be the leader.
He may well be by himself as his role tends to differ from straight combat, but I don't buy the idea that his split personality justifies being "his own partner". From what I see, Akatsuki works in teams of 2 for either performance or safety reasons. Having two personalities doesn't really accomplish both, unless you're a super soldier from the HRLOriginally Posted by Marik
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
What's the HRL?
Another thing I'm thinking about this guy is he could have been a hokage or some type of leader of one of these villages, but all the other hokages feared his power and conspired against him and possibly destroying his village.

Aren't Akatsuki all missing-nins? So why would you think he is in his own village?Originally Posted by Jessper
-Oh and from the way Zetsu travels I don't think it would be possible for him to have a partner. And in the pic ASSpirine posted that is on the previous page, they all seem to be partnered up, so it seems like the leader and his partner are the two Akatsuki yet to be revealed.

I was joking about the village of technology bit, I found the setting odd in comparison to the rest of the Naruto world is all.
I guess that makes sense with the picture, perhaps he is mostly recon.

He seems to be the delivery boy or something like a messenger in Akatsuki
Isn't Tobi's partner Dei....dara now? (can't spell that name)...unless Zetsu gets partnered with Tobi. Tobi seems to have been following him around before his admittance into the organization.
The guy doesn't have arms anymore. Surely he already got kicked out of the group (despite being in that pic). I mean, he's dead weight since it's only so much you can do without arms, especially if you aren't Orochimaru.Originally Posted by KrayZ33
Nope, at 16:00 we get a close up of him. I'm curious what good he is to them at this point aside from being fuel for Bijuu extraction though. It seemed like his ability was fairly dependent on having hands.Originally Posted by Kraco
Maybe Kuzuku sewed some arms on him.
Anyway, I honestly think Zetsu is a Junchuuriki. He's just too inhuman looking not to be. And I think Zetsu's "other personality" is his Bijuu.
Either way, Zetsu is clearly not just a split personality, since his lips move when one of his voices talks, and not when the other talks. If Zetsu's other voice isn't his bijuu, then his "partner" probably lives under his robes. Just like Sakon and Ukon.
Obvious answer to an obvious question. Since we did see him go looking for the arm that Kakashi severed and his other arm was merely crushed by Gaara's sand.Originally Posted by DarthEnder
Anyway no one in Akatsuki is a Jinchuuriki, it just wouldn't make any damn sense, it really annoys me when people say stuff like that. Oro is a Jinchuuriki, Kisame is a Jinchuuriki, and now Zetsu.Anyway, I honestly think Zetsu is a Junchuuriki. He's just too inhuman looking not to be. And I think Zetsu's "other personality" is his Bijuu..
Besides in this very episode the Akatsuki leader said they're collecting the bijuu and they eventually are going to start releasing them to start wars. No where in his plan did he mention anything about creating new Jinchuuriki. The only one who ever mentioned creating new Jinchuuriki is Chiyo because she couldn't possibly imagine what else the Akatsuki would do with them but if the Akatsuki are able to control the Bijuu without creating Jinchuuriki, they will be far more powerful.

Thats not what he said, at least, not according to DB. What he said was "we'll start using the bijuu to start manufacturing our own wars". He doesn't say anything about "releasing" them.Originally Posted by Abdula
You say "if the Akatsuki are able to control the Bijuu without creating Jinchuuriki" but that's a pretty big if. Unless they have the 1st Hokages bloodline, how would they do that? Failing that, making jinchuuriki seems like they only way you'd be able to control the bijuu.
It just seemed really obvious to me. There are 9 bijuu. There are 9 members of Akatsuki. Akatsuki had 2 bijuu already before they caught Shukaku, and Kisame and Zetsu are inhuman looking monsters, and Kisame has ridiculous amounts of chakra. I just assumed Akatsuki had already put the two they captured into them. And I fully expect the next time we see Diedera in action that he'll have the Shukaku inside him.
We've been over this so many times, besides Akatsuki originally had ten members and the leader would never risk putting a Bijuu in one of his member when they go around getting killed and killing each other all the damn time. And you say being able to control a bijuu is a big if and I agree it is but I highly doubt they would be attempting to acquire all of them if they couldn't control them. Besides whats with that anyway, we've seen immortal guys, people coming back from the dead and all manner of nonsense and we know its possible for people to control Bijuu, like you said the 1st could do it, so why not an organization of super villains?

Unless they were going to put them inside people.Originally Posted by Abdula
Jinchuuriki are overrated anyway. Just consider the current situation: The Akatsuki has captured several bijuu from jinchuuriki with years of experience. Much good did it do to them. The bijuu free of human hosts are likely far more dangerous and powerful. If the plan is to create a mercenary army with international significance, they need to reduce the power of the big nations. That will be easily handled by just releasing those demon monsters in the middle of those countries. There's no particular reason to be able to control them. They will likely destroy everything around them, weakening the bigger nations and creating opportunities for the surrounding smaller ones to wage war.
Edit: Actually, since the Akatsuki has mastered the art of sucking bijuu inside that statue, they could even use the old trick of first creating a problem and then offering a solution to it.
If they can actually put them back in the statue after releasing them, then yes, they could be the cause, then pretend to be the solution to, the problem.
If that's the case though, that really makes their plan seem lame. Unlimited sources of chakra and they just use them like cruise missiles.
I just assume that being in Akatsuki, and not caring about any of the social implications of being jinchuuriki, that most of them were there for the purpose of attaining an unlimited chakra supply for themselves.
