In Naruto: Reborn with Talent Chapter 384

Kaguya's afternoon heavy-lifting

‘Mhm. What about transferring this island closer to the north of the Elemental Nations?’ Rei casually spoke.

Why not make use of overpowered waifu when he spent so much time trying to free her from her prison?

Hearing him, Kaguya shrugged as if he was just asking her something extremely mundane and her body started to be lifted into the air.

All the Claymores and Isley gaped at the sight while Riful’s worshipful gaze increased in intensity. Flying was rare even among Yomas and flying without wings looked more like a miracle to them.

Frankly, Rei knew most ninjas would have reacted in much the same way so he couldn’t really fault them.

“What is she going to do?” Flora gathered her courage and asked, bringing Riful’s, Isley’s, and other Claymores’ attention to Rei.

“Ah, she is…” Rei found it hard to explain. How was he to say Kaguya was going to relocate their homeland, the place they considered as the ‘whole world’, without sounding insane? In the end, he just helplessly shrugged and said, “She is lifting this entire place into the air.”

He also conveniently omitted to mention what ‘this entire place’ was supposed to mean.

Naturally, that still earned him some weird looks but Rei expertly ignored them. They would understand later on what happened anyway.

Kaguya’s body flew up until she was among the clouds and then she spread her arms, more for focus purposes than to be dramatic. Nobody could see her so high in the sky anyway so there was no need for dramatics.

She also spread her senses, engulfing the entire island with them, and instantly her head received massive information overload, making her very happy that Rei forced her to practice when she was still capable of inhabiting only a low-powered clone.

Thanks to that, her chakra control was much better, and surprisingly enough, with each small step in controlling her chakra, her powers rose exponentially.

When she learned Tree Walking, she, among other things, for the first time, managed to use her Rinne-Sharingan’s ability to manipulate gravity for other things than the preset techniques it offered her at first.

Rei told her that it was not her powers that were increasing, just that she had more access to them now that she had at least a small idea of what exactly she was doing. But that didn’t matter. Kaguya felt much more powerful than even when she fought her sons and it brought her joy.

With each power-up, she felt less and less worried about other Otsutsukis.

The practice sessions were hellish and hard… Kaguya never complained as much in her life… but at first, she stubbornly kept practicing because she wanted to be praised by Rei. Then when she found out just how much it was helping her with her powers, Kaguya happily suffered, only becoming much more vocal with her complaining to annoy Konan or Tsunade or whoever was training her for the moment.

It was surprisingly fun!

Kaguya started pushing her chakra into the island below her, flooding it with her energy as if it was an invisible tsunami in much the same way Earth Jutsu practitioners were using their chakra.

The biggest difference was the scale and amount of power.

Kaguya’s chakra filled the whole island to the brim, making nature bloom no matter the climate, and sick people suddenly started to get better simply because of the overabundance of nature energy present in Kaguya’s chakra, and yet, Kaguya barely felt the drain on her reserves.

It was another thing that astonished her. The vastness of her real energy reserves. She never managed to feel all of it. That was what over-inflated her ego previously. She could never reach her limit so she thought she did not have one. She thought her reserves were infinite which was not true.

In the end, this arrogance led to her being sealed. She thought she could resist the sealing because of her chakra so she let her sons touch her with those blasted sealing marks. Contrary to the uneducated belief, a strong entity needed an extremely strong seal otherwise even Kyuubi could be sealed in a storage scroll for kunais.

Once a sealing process starts, it is like a tug of war between the chakra of the being that is being sealed and the seal trying to withstand its energy volume. If the seal holds, the being is sealed. If not, the seal gets torn to shreds.

That was why Kyuubi needed an Uzumaki host and also why Hagoromo used the Moon to seal her. It was not because it seemed cool to him at the moment. Nothing less than a planet could be used as a medium for the seal to hold Kaguya’s chakra.

Sealing was still an extremely unfair thing, in Kaguya’s opinion.

Now that the whole island was brimming with Kaguya’s chakra, it was an easy task for her to…

Kaguya lifted her hand and the island started shaking as if a sudden earthquake hit it. Her chakra was forcefully separating the island from its connection to the seabed, breaking it and trying to lift the whole mass into the air via her gravity manipulation.

While this was going on, Kaguya could feel the panic that hit the inhabitants of the island. Some screamed, others were paralyzed from fear, while there were also those who fell on their knees and started praying to their deities for mercy.

It was quite amusing to Kaguya.

So much over-exaggeration! She was just relocating the island, geez!

She wondered what would have been their reaction if she crumbled it under their feet and let lava start to erupt from the ground. Now that would have been a situation proportional to their reactions!

It took her twenty minutes. Twenty long minutes of tremors and shaking, which spooked the ever-living daylight of the superstitious medieval folk on the island who thought this was some kind of judgment day, but Kaguya finally managed to loosen the island from the seabed and started to lift it to the sky.

Kaguya could have done it faster but the island was embedded into the seabed quite strongly. Doing it quickly could cause some chasms creating on the island or even destruction of a few mountain ranges.

Not that she cared much about the collateral damage but the island was basically already Rei’s property! It wouldn’t be nice to damage it.

That would have also caused the crumbling of the buildings built by humans. And since Rei would certainly not appreciate that, Kaguya made sure to be gentle enough and reinforced the buildings, mountain ranges, and the ground of the island with her chakra while trying to separate it from the seabed.

Thanks to her efforts, the land and cities did not look devastated like they would after a real earthquake.

Unlike the separation from the seabed, the lifting of the island was quite a peaceful process. Kaguya doubted the inhabitants even suspected something was happening with their continent. Especially when most of them were lying on the ground in relief that their world did not end and Gods showed them mercy or some other bullshit.

Only those living on the edge would have realized the island was lifting. Others… not so much.

The process was too steady and nobody witnessing the separation of the shores from the oceans would think or feel something was wrong.

Which brought up an interesting point. What about the people fishing in the ocean when the island was being relocated?

Well, Kaguya had an easy solution to that. She marked their ships and would teleport them around the island when it was relocated. Until then… the sailors will have to suffer in despair in order to learn not to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

When the whole island of the size of a small continent was finally above the sea, it suddenly disappeared. Anybody witnessing it would later swear that in one second it was there, in the next… nothing.

After all, why should she physically relocate it when she can just teleport it to her desired location?
