Secondly, Zetsu are made of Hashicells and none of them display Wood Release beyond an encased Spiral Zetsu.

Since Kabuto had briefly access to Zetsu he could easily have acquired some of that flesh and later implanted it in Sasuke. After all, Orochimaru's labs were mostly trashed by escaping prisoners. Kabuto didn't use Hashirama's power against Itachi (despite having integrated various other people's powers), so presumably he had only recently gained access to Hashirama's cells. Note that while Kabuto promised to power up the Zetsu, none of them seem to display any kind of superior firepower. It seems he simply stole some Zetsu cells, wasn't ready to integrate them (yet) and then gave it to Sasuke when he needed it more. Namikazenaruto9 wrote: No two Rinnegans? Hagoromo prevented him from having two. Same reason that Sasuke has sharingan active in his Rinnegan eye. Namikazenaruto9 wrote: And why would Hashirama's chakra cause transmigration when he is no longer Ashura reincarnate? Hashirama's cells would still contain Ashura's chakra. The power of the soul has influence on the flesh (see: Edo Tensei) and can in fact lead to permanent changes if kept long enough (see: Gaara, Nagato). Namikazenaruto9 wrote: And Sasuke got Rinnegan from Sage and his chakra. Same with Naruto... As shown with Madara, having the requirements doesn't necessarily grant instant access. Hagoromo sped up Sasuke's rinnegan awakening, made it active in only one eye and ensured he could use Sharingan with it. With Naruto he ensured that he could use the Biju's chakra and Six Paths Senjutsu.
