Forum:Can White zetsu use his transformation target's jutsu?

I thought I'll put this in the forum because so many pages cover this. When White Zetsu uses his Substitute Technique, can he use the target's jutsu?

If yes, why isn't he seen using this much? With the possible exception of Yota and Team 8 in those filler episodes? Heck why don't they just create an army of Madara's? There has to be some limitation right?

If no, why don't the Allied Forces figure out the impostors simply by asking each other to perform their favorite jutsus? Why does Shikaku conclude that the only way to sense them is using Naruto?

They can, but they don't know techniques of those they impersonate most of the time.--Elveonora (talk) 20:12, July 8, 2013 (UTC)
