4. Chapter IV : Writers Note

So Sorry to have been gone for so long but my laptop went down and I had to save up to get a new one, but I'm back!

So there are some clarifications that need to be made. Or You can Just skip down to the story, your call.

While reading the original story I found this is how I viewed things and when I started emailing the Forever Gypsy she told me her views on things and this is what we decided on in order for me to not completely destroy the original story but this is our beliefs. ...

1. So to the Reincarnation Jutsu in the anime and manga should be noted the any Reincarnation Jutsu's have only been performed on male shinobi. With no effects shown or spoken of. On the Exception of Asura and Indra but the Reincarnation Jutsu the two brothers used has never been spoken about at all. So With that it leaves me with the theory that if a Reincarnation Jutsu would to be used on a female along with a sealing technique I hypothesize that if the being that is being forced into another living body is too immense it could have the effect of splitting itself into fractions in order to settle into the host. Example - Kaguya being sealed inside of Sakura, Kaguya being the mother of all chakra and Sakura being a normal human not blooded to Kaguya. My belief is that because of Kaguya being such a strong being that it would be impossible to completely seal her into just a normal human girl, her chakra and body would have to be fractioned off. Reincarnation has the theory that when one dies another is born into another being, this is why Sakura became pregnant, because Kaguya was to powerful to completely seal away and forced herself to be reborn physically so as not to die or kill her host.

2. Sakura hasn't just been running around rabid, her mission was to save the world and as such Sakura has been doing what she can without the help of the Uchiha and the Senju. What she's been up to will be talked about in further chapters.

3. Hashirama isn't evil, he is the reincarnation of Asura, but he is still blooded to Kaguya an alien being that ate the God Fruit. I strongly believe that the Ōtsutsuki bloodline is more emotionless and darker than what we have been told. This darker and cold nature is more seen with the Uchiha who as we know use it as a mask to protect their more loving hearts where as only one Senju has been known to be completely cold and apathetic towards everyone is Tobirama and even Butsuma as shown when he beat Hashirama for his feelings. It is possible that Hashirama puts on a more cheery demeanor and uses gambling and alcohol to cover these darker feelings. Even in his 'depressed' states he's still acting like a class clown in a sense. In the previous chapter Sakura forces out this darker side of him because of the fact that in his eyes she is a threat to him and to Madara, this comes from the fact that they are the reincarnations of Asura and Indra, and as we've seen with Naruto and Sasuke the two reincarnations that fought nearly to the death because Naruto was trying to save Sasuke. Hashirama sees Sakura as trying to pull Madara away from him. In other words Asura is trying to keep Indra from falling into the darkness even if that means having to embrace the darkness himself. Hashirama sealed Sakura's chakra the first time because he felt the darkness that was Kaguya's bloodlust where as Tobirama sealed Sakura's chakra because he didn't want Madara to be able to have her as a weapon if the peace talks didn't go well, as she has been shown to be such a great healer she could keep the Uchiha numbers and power above the Senju clan. The Second time Hashirama is forced to seal her is because he sees her talking with Madara about something that could keep them (Asura and Indra) apart and keep the fighting in a continuous state, when all Hashirama (Asura) wants is to stop fighting and be with his brother/friend Madara (Indra) in peaceful harmony.

4. Sakura is not superwoman, she is still Sakura, albeit having an alien sealed inside her and watching everyone and everything she knows be destroyed and die before her very eyes has probably changed her a bit. While she is a very smart person, she is still capable of making mistakes like getting thrown into a boulder and blacking out. (Like many Genius' before her have made mistakes in the Naruto universe i.e. Itachi and Shisui were genius but made mistakes that cost them their lives) Hashirama and Madara are a lot stronger than her, not just because of their chakra's and being Ōtsutsuki descendants but also being they are 9 years older than her and have been fighting to survive their entire lives compared to her so yeah, their reflexes are gonna be faster and harsher than she could ever be. Sakura is intelligent, and knows that there are some fights she can't win and this is why she's submitted to Hashirama and Madara because she knows she can't take them, and she knows that even if Izuna doesn't want to hurt her, if Madara believes her to be a threat he will be forced to help his brother defend themselves and If she can't win in a fight with Hashirama and Madara, Sakura knows that she won't survive in a fight with two Senju's and two Uchiha's that are determined to kill her. So please remember Sakura is smart, but she's not superwoman, even if she has Kaguya's chakra she is still Haruno Sakura.

Now you can read the new chapter ...
