Hey everyone. Some great thoughts going on in this thread. I just have one question. It has been established that the Ten-Tails body is sealed in the moon. So here is my question. Why is there a Ten-Tails body?
The reason I ask this question is because when any of the nine tailed beasts were sealed away, there was no huge body laying around afterwards, but the body had to go somewhere, right? With this in mind, three options are available (in my mind, only number 3 is an actual option, but with the way this series is, you never know):
1. The ninja world somehow misplaced 9 giant bodies. I can only imagine a team of ANBU ninja tracking down a nine-tailed, orange furred mountain that they somehow lost on the way back to the village. (So you don't think I'm serious, this is a comical anecdote, as SOME sort of reference would have bound to have been made to these giant bodies being somewhere, don't you all think?)
2. The Ten-Tails body is not in the moon. You see, this series has had a secret writer this whole time. "Naruto" Written by Masashi Kishimoto. Oh, did we forget to mention M. Night Shyamalan? Guess what *******s? There never was a Ten-Tails, there never was a Sage of Six Paths, there never was a Naruto, there never was any type of ninjutsu, in fact, there never was any ninjas. Madara is just a senile old Buddhist monk in diapers, and the whole storyline was just an effect of the dementia.

That's the final page, right there. Madara just sitting there in a wheelchair in the monastery, two of the younger monks walk up to him and ask him how he's doing today. He looks at their faces, and it's Naruto and Sasuke. End. BAM!! Blew your mind didn't I?! Just an old man with dementia. Lol.
3. This is the only option that makes some sense, however, is only speculation until more concept is explained. I think it has a lot to do with Yin chakra and Yang chakra. Not only that, but I'm 99% sure that the concept of
Yin Yang is going to become the main theme starting very soon. Well, technically, it already has, but most people probably didn't catch/notice it before (although I'm sure everyone on here caught it.) Think about it, the concept of Yin Yang is about how polar opposites are not only interconnected, but give rise to each other.
As an example: It has been said MULTIPLE times that Sasuke and Naruto are exact opposites, thus, they are Yin and Yang. This is why, even though they took completely different paths, they will constantly run into each other, and why they both strive so hard to stay on equal terms, when one gets stronger, the other HAS to become stronger. This is also why Naruto stated that when he and Sasuke fights, they will both die, not just one (because there can't be a Yin with no Yang and vice versa). So, maybe the body is the Yang, and the chakra that was separated is the Yin? Like I said, this is based on speculation...... so just take it with a grain of salt.
However, if that is the case, then we need an explanation of why and how only the Nine-Tails Yang chakra is in existence (sealed in Naruto) and the Yin chakra is not (technically speaking it is in existence, but not in the natural world, its in the after world). Yang cannot exist in the natural world without Yin, otherwise there would be an imbalance. Basically, in order for me to validate my option 3, we need to know exactly what Yin and Yang chakras are, what their exact respective purposes are, etc.
EDIT: There is a reason this post being in this thread, as it will lead up to this topic.
