Prelude : The beginning of the end

by : LightOfCertainity

In the pre-Hagoromo era, Kaguya Otsutsuki, filled with an unyielding love for the world and an ardent desire for independence from her clan, embarked on a ruthless quest to eliminate all the spirits worshipped by humanity. Among these revered spirits was Jashin, known as the deity of blood and sacrifice. Sensing his imminent demise, Jashin strategically left remnants of himself, allowing the sacred tree to absorb his essence. Unbeknownst to Kaguya, this act infected the Shinju with Jashin's malevolent will.

During the Shinju awakening ritual, Kaguya, oblivious to Jashin's manipulation, assassinated Ishiki and consumed the chakra fruit, unaware of its twisted nature. The world's will, representing the natural energy leyline, felt the weight of an unseen chaotic darkness infecting it,the residual presence of Jashin heavy. Not able to purify itself from Jashin disgusting teint,The world Will decided to blesse Kaguya with childrens of her own,using humanity new worship of the former as medium to create protectors for itself.

Kaguya finaly gave birth to two sons—Hagoromo and Hamura—,not knowing the world will final attempt to purify the leyline,now fully infected with Jashin's seed,breeding chaos in the natural energy nodes.

As an effects of the teinting of Jashin,its become much harder to learn the sage mode,in turn weakning the indigenous populations ,provoking the death of most of the sage living in the summoning realm.leaving rares one with the ability to resist nature power.

Tainted by Jashin's influence, Kaguya succumbed to paranoia about her clan's future coming. Initiating the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan, she enslaved humanity into White Zetsu,absorbing the planet naturel energy into the Shinju.

Hagoromo, contacted by the sage toad Gamamaru with visions of the world's doom,trained with the latter at becoming a sage. Now blessed with natural energy, He confronted Kaguya with Hamura in a battle that almost broke the world. Ultimately, they sealed Kaguya within moon,with the goal of purifying her of Jashin's influence,setting conditions for her freedom.

In this altered Naruto world, the timeline shifted after Hagoromo and Homura Otsutsuki sealed Kaguya. Unbeknownst to Them, remnants of Kaguya and the malevolent deity Jashin were intertwined. Jashin strategically left traces of his essence, patiently waiting for the opportune moment to strike back at the goddess who once subdued him, and that moment finally emerged.

Upon Kaguya's sealing, Black Zetsu manifested as her will to liberate herself, manipulating events from the shadows. Confused by the energy of Jashin within him, Black Zetsu misinterpreted Kaguya's will. Believing the key to freeing his mother lay in the revival of the Ten-Tails,and provoking a worldwide sacrifice. With this in mind,Black Zetsu sought to breed the most chaos possible in the world.

Over the next millennia, Black Zetsu orchestrated events, drawing dark energy into Jashin seeds in the natural energy nodes. absorbing the world's most negative emotions born of wars and never-ending conflicts, preparing for the resurrection of the Ten-Tails. Manipulating the descendants of Hagoromo, Ashura, and Indra, Black Zetsu fueled the flames of conflict, ensuring the world would descend into the chaos of the Warring States era.

Hagoromo, sensing something amiss regarding his children's conflict, decided before his death to separate the Ten-Tails into nine beings,in a way purifying them out of the Jashin teint,leaving for the pure land. hiding himself there for the most opportune moment,watching the world with his RinneSharingan.

Meanwhile, Hamura took it upon himself to safeguard the Gedo Mazo and the seal of his mother. Leaving the planet to prevent the resurgence of his mother, he positioned himself on the moon to ensure Kaguya doesn't escape the seal before her full purification. Taking some of his children with him, who would later be known as the Otsutsuki clan of the moon, he left behind only seeds of himself in the lower world—twins, ancestors of the Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan. Over generations, the Kaguya clan descendants were cursed by Jashin's taint, turning them into mad warriors seeking death and chaos on the battlefield. The descendants of the Hyuga clan, after a disastrous conflict where their Byakugan was stolen, created the Cursed Seal as a way to protect themselves from their distant cousins, unknowingly paving the way for the twisted fate the seal would later become.

on hagoromo line,jashin didnt content himself with fanning the flames between the 2 brothers.Using black zetsu,he cursed Indra line,breeding hate and obsession in their heart.as one of the curse effects,it become necessary for an uchiha to canibalise the eyes of his brothers,feeding in them great hate and guilt,all emotions jashin love to absorbe. 

As Naruto graduation approche in the year 62 since Konoha's founding.Ashura's reincarnation remain oblivious to the hidden hand of Black Zetsu, which has woven a tapestry of deception all over the world,orchestrating a plan that could unravel the fragile peace maintained by the ninja villages. Naruto now embarks on his journey,slowly discovering the truth behind the force breeding chaos into the fate of the ninja world. With the resurrection of the Ten-Tails on the horizon and the specter of Jashin looming, Naruto faces a daunting task – to break free from the web of manipulation, unite the divided nations, and confront the darkness threatening to plunge the world into eternal doom. The destiny of the ninja world rests on his shoulders, and the true nature of his adversaries is far more intricate than he could ever imagine.
