#9 Understanding the Naruto World
Kaguya—stood by the window, staring out at the city.
A thought began gnawing at the back of her mind: Which version of Kaguya am I? The more she thought about it, the more pressing the question became.
Kaguya had several key stages in her story:
The version of Kaguya after consuming the chakra fruit, which made her the progenitor of all chakra on Earth.The version who merged with the Ten-Tails, gaining the full power of the beast.The Kaguya seen during the 4th Shinobi World War—an incomplete resurrection, constantly trying to regain her full power.
But then, another possibility crept into Steven's mind. What if this version of Kaguya is different? What if she had fully absorbed all the chakra from the Shinobi world? What if she had won the war?
The idea sent a shiver down her spine. That version of Kaguya would be unstoppable, a literal goddess who had taken all the power the Shinobi world had to offer. Could she be that version?
Steven held out her hand, focusing, trying to summon the familiar energy. "If I have the Ten-Tails within me…"
Her chakra flared, but the transformation didn't come. Nothing happened. Maybe she did it wrong ?
Still, she couldn't shake the question. Was she the Kaguya from the war? Or perhaps something entirely new?
Steven sighed, walking over to the couch and grabbing the remote. If she was going to figure this out, she needed to get her facts straight. Kaguya's abilities were vast, and trying to remember every jutsu, every power she wielded during the 4th Shinobi World War was impossible without a refresher.
She flipped through the streaming services until she found it: Naruto Shippuden.
"Alright," she muttered, pulling up the first episode of the 4th Great Shinobi War arc. "Time to watch the entire series… again."
Over the next few days, Steven dived deep into the world of Naruto, binge-watching Shippuden and taking meticulous notes. Every time a jutsu appeared that seemed useful, she paused the screen,searched it up on the wiki and started writing down the hand signs, the effects, and the underlying chakra principles she understood.
Kaguya's Dimensions – Naruto Shippuden, Episode 474:
Kaguya used her Rinne Sharingan to open portals to her different dimensions—lava, ice, acid, and more. Each dimension operated under its own rules, with different environmental hazards.
Kaguya's note: "Portal works, have not testet if i have access to the different Dimensions."
All-Killing Ash Bones – Naruto Shippuden, Episode 474:
This technique allowed Kaguya to generate bone projectiles from her body. When these bones struck a target, they turned them to ash.
Kaguya's note: "Tested this already. Works like a charm. Need to be careful—too powerful to use casually."
Chakra Absorption – Naruto Shippuden, Episode 476:
Kaguya was capable of absorbing chakra from others, a technique that proved fatal to anyone she drained.
Kaguya's note: "Chakra doesn't exist here, but can I absorb natural energy? Test this."
Rabbit-Tailed Beast Transformation – Naruto Shippuden, Episode 476:
Kaguya, after absorbing the Ten-Tails, could transform into her Rabbit Tailed Beast form, with massive power and the ability to manipulate her own gravity.
Kaguya's note: "This is what I need to figure out—can I still do this?"
Truth-Seeking Orbs – Naruto Shippuden, Episode 477:
These orbs were comprised of all five chakra natures and yin-yang release. They could nullify any ninjutsu and were used as both offense and defense.
Kaguya's note: "Do I have these? Could be incredibly useful."
Byakugan/Rinne Sharingan – Naruto Shippuden, various episodes:
Kaguya's combination of the Byakugan and Rinne Sharingan allowed her to perceive chakra networks, manipulate space-time, and even cast powerful genjutsu.
Kaguya's note: "No chakra networks here, but I can still see natural energy. Could I cast illusions? Need to test."
