Heyo, Con~ I know you loved Zanma a bunch, so just watch out what I have planned for FC!

1. Please indicate what kekkei genkai or kekkei tōta you are applying for?
 * Wood Release

2. How is your character able to obtain this kekkei genkai? Please detail below.
 * '''Shōjimaru, while named as such, was originally the being known as within the . Guruguru was a  that was one of the first victims of the, as it is known within the canon as of now.  Within the war, Guruguru had hid from sight until  had been fully revived, at which he encased  within his body and began to assist his "master" within battle. During this period of time, he was confronted by  and soon pulled back as a consequence of the significant advantage the former Kage had over him. (Note, from herein, canon will be morphed based on what I know of the status of the war in FC.) Essentially, while escaping, Guruguru understood that Madara's defeat was inevitable by the entirety of the Shinobi Alliance. As a result of this, Guruguru escaped from the battlefield as far as he could with Yamato encased within him. Notably, the power that he gained from Yamato was something that he had lusted over. Due to this, he kept Yamato's body encased within his own in order to grant him the power that he displayed during the war, and hopefully escalate beyond the supposed limits he demonstrated. Furthermore, due to the unique  that the Zetsu possess, Guruguru was able to use an enhanced form of this - in combination with his knowledge of 's appearance and growth - to replicate his appearance almost entirely, with some subtle differences. This, and the physical immortality that is granted to Zetsu, gave him the opportunity to wonder the world to obtain more power and learn the truth of his origins, based on what  had briefly indicated beforehand.

3. How will your character awaken this kekkei genkai? How will they realize they can use it?
 * Considering Guruguru's origins, he has always been capable of utilizing the Wood Release subconsciously. Following Yamato's encasement within himself, his use has exponentially increased with the ability to use Yamato's chakra alongside his own reserves.

4. Briefly detail what your plans are, at the moment, for your character if he/she is approved for the selected kekkei genkai? What will they do with it? How will they improve or utilize it in a fashion that is unique to them, rather than a rehash of canon character usage or maybe even other fanon characters?
 * His main fighting style will comprise the use of Zetsu-exclusive techniques and root systems in order to overwhelm his enemy with the sheer magnitude of his abilities. However, if necessary, he will tap into Yamato's power to enhance his powers and employ techniques that many will associate with Hashirama Senju, albeit on a lesser scale. Among these will be the and its associated techniques.
