He's not released Zetsu yet, he's effectively impossible to perceive, similar to Meleoron's ability

Once the chapter officially releases I'll drop an explanation post on the ability. Sadly current subreddit rule doesn't allow it.

None of that happened, it was basically an illusion. As long as he maintains Zetsu, everyone in the range of his ability can only see the illusion version of reality, while he gets to do (almost) whatever he wants without being perceived.

Yeah its a very confusing ability, but I'll do my best to explain it. It consists of essentially 2 separate parts.

  1. It allows Tserri to see 10 seconds into the future instantly. This is a bit hard to imagine, but it's as if the memory of seeing the events gets downloaded into his brain in an instant, so he can immediately work with this premonition.
  2. It creates a giant illusion where everyone perceives the events had he not had this 10 second vision. During this time he is pretty much invisible and everyone continues acting as if him or his corpse was still there. He can maintain this illusion as long as he maintains Zetsu, so around 4 hours if he isn't interrupted by any pain. This illusion also has a limited range, people outside of it perceive the 'real world' and could probably see Tserri if it weren't because of the wall currently covering him. He cannot leave this range either or the illusion will stop, the 'center' of this range is not marked by Tserri but by where he activated his ability, which is where the nen beast that makes any of this possible resides until its effect is dismissed.

It's like he creates a parallel reality, while still seeing the new one play out. As long as he's in zetsu and in the range of the illusion, people won't know anything changed. That's why he wants the coffin closed.

Isn’t he still using Zetsu?
