Substitute Technique

This technique allows White Zetsu to create an exact copy of anyone he has ever touched, down to their chakra. However, it will not be strong enough to fight an extended battle, so its primary purpose is to function as a diversion. The clone retains the appearance of the person even after its "death" and returns to its form of a clone of White Zetsu only after the technique is released by Zetsu himself.

The technique is also used by the soldiers of the White Zetsu Army. When they use it, it would seem that the technique can be dispersed after a solid blow or two however. This technique can apparently copy the look of a person's dōjutsu as well.

Trivia

 * In the manga when White Zetsu cancels this technique, the clone resembles a regular Zetsu clone. However in the anime, the clone has the venus flytrap like extensions which have never been seen on a typical clone.
 * In Shippūden episode 266, a White Zetsu clone was seen absorbing the victim's chakra through its mouth.
