About Black Zetsu, his advices to Kaguya is harmful. I didn't think that Zetsu, who is the Bane of the Narutoverse, planned a Mugen Tsukiyomi and manipulated Madara wouldn't figured out that Naruto in the rock dimension was the clone. He advice her to not using that dimensional jutsu because of the

and in the 685 chapter two ninjas with over nine thousand times smaller chakras opened three times dimensions with kamui. He is definitely not the Kaguya's will.

It is telling, to me, that Zetsu seems to be the ones calling the shots for his 'mother.'

Who is supposed to be this power-seeking control-freak.

Just lets Zetsu tell her what to do at every turn. There's far more to Black Zetsu, and far more to Kaguya's story than we've been told.

First I'd like to thank you for your long and detailed 'mindset' of the story, along with making me further interested in the teachings of Taoism and Buddhism. Now I have a couple questions (if you don't mind).

What does the Jubi represent to you? You said that Kaguya out of her will and 'stubbornness' she was allowed to become apart of the Jubi and further live on. It is my understanding that the Jubi represents nature itself so how could one (corrupt) individual become apart of it and eventually control it and decide its direction?

There are a lot of ways that Kishimoto can take the Juubi.

In some cases, the Kodama (and other holy trees) are seen as the temporary residence of celestial spirits (gods). The tree gives the spirit a source of power to remain tied to the Earth and to have a form.

Directly, I think that when Kaguya was sealed into the holy tree - the tree's nature (which is to absorb natural chakra for the production of the fruit) and Kaguya's will merged to form the being that came forth - the Juubi - which sought out the fruit's power distributed between her sons (and was just generally pissed so it destroyed things).

It is not exactly the Holy tree - nor is it really Kaguya. It is a sort of chimera being that sprang forth.

Is it fair to say to say Naruto eventually needs to choose to 'befriend' the Jubi and become one with it? Seeing as the series is named after him and that's the only way for humanity to be aligned with nature and it's forces again?

I think this is a fair assessment, though I am not sure if it will take this exact literal form. If the Juubi is a sort of hybrid creature spawned of Kaguya's will and the Holy Tree's nature - then undoing Kaguya's sealing may restore both the Holy Tree and another portion of Kaguya (the bat-shit insane and controlling part).

It could be that, in a way, Black Zetsu really is Kaguya's will - leaking out from the sealing of the Juubi and, now, controlling her 'blank' form that has yet to be fully re-united. Perhaps Zetsu is precisely as he says he is. Although that explanation doesn't work too well as it requires the Juubi to have already been separated out into Kaguya's will and the Holy Tree's nature (which doesn't fit too well with known events).

Anyway - I think Naruto will, having befriended the nine tailed beasts, come to an agreement with them to rejoin the Juubi (which is inside the madara-turned-Kaguya-not-sure-what-happened-there) - which would act radically to counter act the rage the Juubi has (and perhaps convey to Kaguya a message that cannot be conveyed through words).

But it's hard to say exactly how the story will play out.

Ultimately, I think we see a Kaguya who ascends to the stars, the return of the Holy Tree, chakra recognized as having become a natural part of humanity (both the constructive and destructive), and the combination of Naruto and Hinata choosing how the power of the new fruit will be handled.

Or it may just end with Naruto and Sasuke sealing her in the next five chapters (the Kaguya arc, at least). It's kind of hard to say, these days - while many of us were expecting Kaguya to make an appearance at some point - virtually none of us expected Black Zetsu to 'insta-solo' Madara in such an anti-climactic (yet well played) plot twist that turned Madara into Kaguya.

TL;DR I'll read when it's short enough to not bore me.

This should be renamed. "Ultimate Wall of Text". Overall seems to be a nice theory.

TL;DR I'll read when it's short enough to not bore me.

This mentality has always perplexed me.

Am I supposed to feel belittled by the fact that you're bored by the notion of learning something?

Or are you supposed to be cool for announcing your refusal to entertain the ideas of another?

I'm sure your response, if I ever got one, would be to the effect of "Dude - I was just saying it's long" - or something to that effect. Yet, you've already established that you do not wish to participate in deep and/or analytical thought/discussion - so can you really be trusted to have understood the influences upon your own behavior?

But, there I go, holding people to standards, again. I get in trouble with modern society for doing that.

Since necromancy is popular in some of the 'hot' manga titles, recently, I'll try my hand at it.

Since the latest chapter has been ... anti-climactic... I'm curious to see how many people will be more amicable to the postulates made herein.

Kaguya has now been sealed.

The Sage of Six Paths is apparently alive and something close to 'in the flesh.'

The world has been 'saved' - but where is 'the world?' Still in Infinite Tsukuyomi.

I believe we are not far from just about everything I've stated in this set of theories to be tested against the Manga.

Read it all and hope it's true... would love to see a revived Neji in all of this as well!
