So i was arguing with my friend about itachi being able to put characters in other **********s in a genjustu but he was saying genjutsu wont work on a character that does not have chakra. The naruto wiki says "A genjutsu is created when a ninja controls the chakra flow of a target's cerebral nervous system, thereby affecting their five senses."

But heres the thing, Kaguya was the first being with chakra, yet she put the whole world in an eternal tsukyomi. So what are your opinions?

Everyone needs chakra to live in the NV world, without it they die, it's just shinobi are able to utilize it and generate it outside of their bodies hence ninjutsu, while others cannot(aka fodder lel)

Chakra always existed, the shinju itself was grown from the blood of humans, how can a tree that produces a fruit of chakra be grown from the blood beings who lack it? What the shinju gave was the ability to comprehend chakra and use it for other any purpose the user desires.

So to answer your question, yes genjutsu works on all living things in NV since all living things possess chakra.

Kaguya never put the whole world in Infinite Tsukiyomi, she put specific people in it. By this time, people had chakra. Every living thing in the NV has chakra. The argument people make is that chakra is the same as ki, or Haki, or other metaphysical energies. Thing is, chakra comes from a specific source that is defined within the NV, i.e., the Shinju fruit. Since this fruit doesn't exist in other universes, other universes don't have chakra, and therefore can't be put under Genjutsu.

Chakra is the mix of the both spiritual energy and physical energy, the process of mixing is automatic as we notice in NV and thus every being and even outside of naruto should have it, but meh Gilgamesh fodderizes any genjutsu with ea so it's all cool.


If the fruit was the beginning of all chakra, then how did cats have them? weird shit, just weird.

I'm confused. Why is it that Kaguya claimed the chakra is hers if that's the case?

In debates Ki, Chi, Aura, and Chakra are treated the same, meaning that it could work on them. Depends on the characters though.

Lmao itachis finger gengutsu negs, unless Gilgamesh somehow grabs ea and wipes everything out :sparks:

Genjutsu won't work on Shinigami, as Shinigami don't possess chakra. Reiryoku is not the same thing as chakra, and cannot act as a substitute for chakra in a fight between an NV char and a Bleach char. Genjutsu is ineffective on every single being in Bleach, regardless of their power (if any).

Mokuton jukai kouton (IT) feeds off of life energy.

OT: unfortunely the answer is "no."

If genjustu worked that way, inanimate objects such as a puppet would be put in a genjustu or kunai knives as well.
Any living creator administrating chakra and physical/life energy (yang chakra) can be placed in a genjustu.

@Bold,i think thats not really accurate. I always believed that was the brilliance and importance of Old man Rikudou. He was the first to explain how chakra works and teach it to other people.
