Hello, so I received an inquiry from a viewer by the name of 'EarmesAeledas ',(cool ass name btw) and they asked two good and important questions about the story.

The first being, "What's going on with Naruto's chakra?".

I can answer most of this question since Naruto has no reason to find out about it anytime soon.

Y'all remember the part where Kaguya placed a seal Naruto's chest? Perhaps I should have said something about it, but I wanted to make it so that Naruto didn't see Kaguya's severed arm with Black Zetsu in it since they put the seals on her.

So Naruto didn't throw her arm up to the ETSO, and she was able to regenerate her body from the severed arm before she got destroyed. However, the seals were still struck and her body was still destabilizing, so she had touch Naruto and Sasuke, and place two asspull seals on their bodies. Naruto pulled her from behind her portal, so she quick switched dimensions so that she could counter any follow-up attack.

Once they were in the heavy gravity dimension where Obito died, she tried to kill them with the All-Killing Bone Ash but her body was too weak and she didn't have the energy after dimension hopping.

At that moment, Sasuke met the right conditions for awakening space time travel in his rinnegan, and opened a portal underneath the four of them, leaving Kaguya in her dimension. Naruto flew his TSO's to his friends to break their fall and they landed safely.

Afterwards, the seals on their bodies activated, and Naruto started to undergo a transition.

So, remember when I showed you that Naruto's body was being ripped apart in the portal to another world? Naruto leaving this universe to go to another one was defying the laws of his universes' natural order, and it tried to compensate for Naruto's existence being ANYWHERE but the place he was supposed to be by reforming him entirely to fit in the Bleachverse.

So, Naruto's body has been stripped of its skin and muscle, organs n all, while being healed by Kurama. But Kurama couldn't replace Naruto's chakra with Naruto's chakra, so that was being converted into Spirit Energy.

Naruto wouldn't have survived the transition if weren't for Kurama supplying him with energy, and his body was completely new again.

He still looked the same because ( redacted ) and his body was completely regenerated before he could start being picked apart again. All of his chakra has been converted into Spirit Energy, and him spawning randomly in that world(somewhere around Karakura Hospital) caused a massive burst of spiritual pressure to be released, everywhere.

The hollows gathered near his location because of the energy and reached him around the time before Naruto woke up again (Naruto entered the world around 6 am and it took until around 10 minutes for them to gather round).

I think the second question this person asked was about Naruto's memory loss. This one I can spoil a little bit, although the explanation may not be too great,

Naruto's memory of everything that happened before the Assimilation (the official name) is a violation of the natural unspoken universal law. For anything to originally exist outside of one universe, to then start existing in another is not welcome, for the timeline of events would mess themselves up, and could cause multiple destructive events If the right conditions are met.

Naruto speaking his past into existence after his entire body and soul being revamped to fit the Bleachverse would be a violation, for his memory cannot be altered nor can new ones be fabricated, but it can be erased so that he's a completely blank slate in the world.

Naruto speaking his real name into existence has already done something to upset and alter the space-future-past continuum, and him being able to remember his birthday and age is a sign that his soul is already defying the natural order of the Bleachverse.

He doesn't remember 98% of his memories, however he will regain them, otherwise how would he remember his name?:)

So there, he went through intense physical trauma yes, but he completely forgot all of it, and his memory loss was not done by natural means. The universe is HELL-BENT(foreshadowing???) on making sure Naruto exists correctly in its universe.

But even Naruto's existence is fighting back against the effects of the universe, and most other cases,(like say Sakura some how managed to survive the Assimilation) they would just be an ordinary person.

But Naruto's energy is a danger to himself because although his energies were cut in half and converted, It still proved to be a giant amount of spirit energy left- think Shikai Ichigo before achieving Bankai, and take away like 20 percent of that. That's how much energy Naruto has.

But his energy has special properties that make him stand out even more than the rest...

Anyways, I sincerely hope that this series of explanations made as much sense as it seems to me, and if not then please point out some more discrepancies in my writing so I can continue to evolve!

also, I'm gonna try my DAMN HARDEST to improve y'all's fight scenes, I had a feeling they were gonna fall short lmaoo

If y'all have any tips on fight scenes, then PLEASSE share.

Now, after all that,

enjoy.

may the story continue...

5:12 PM/01/04/20

After some time had passed, Isshin had decided to check Naruto's stitches, and give him some more checkups.

Isshin lead Naruto to his clinic room, and sat him on the chair in the middle of the room.

"Alright son, let's check your stitches and wounds. You okay with lifting your shirt up so that we can see your stitches?". Isshin asked while washing his hands in the sink to Naruto's right.

"Uh, yeah it's cool". Naruto lifted his shirt above his abdomen once Isshin had put on gloves and stepped towards him.

"Alrighty! So, when I took you in this early morning, you had a couple of pretty big gashes on your sides, man. I had to stitch them up, and that took a long while actually. Let's check on them and see how they're...doing".

Isshin had begun to observe Naruto's stitches, which were about 5 inches above his hip line on either side of his body.

At least they were, for when Isshin had started looking for the stitches, he almost couldn't find them. The inflammation had ceased, and the stitches had all dissolved almost completely!

"This is strange...". Isshin stared in astonishment, and Naruto matched his evident confusion with an inquiry," What're you staring at gramps?".

"Your stitches- they're already in the maturation phase!".

"What in the hell does that mean?". Naruto asked, putting his shirt down. "There are four stages of healing of wounds like yours. To make things short, there's the hemostasis phase, where the blood tries to stop the bleeding from the inside, the inflammation phase, where your immune system attacks the site of the wound in order to erase the bacterias, the pathogens and the damaged cells in order to prevent infection.

"Next is the proliferative phase, where your body fills the wound in with new tissue made up partly of a protein called Collagen, and begins the more reparative half of the healing process, pulling the wound together and covering it to help against further infections. You hanging on so far?".

"I guess..?". Naruto was gonna need him to put this in layman's terms later.

"The final phase is the maturation phase. This is where the wound closes fully and the reconstruction of the Collagen begins and reforms itself to be stronger in its reformation, and completes the process, leaving the skin to be newly reformed and a scar to behold!".

"...Riiighht, sooo...".

"Well, basically the phase your at now is where the scar forms, when it SHOULD be in the hemostasis phase, but you COMPLETELY skipped it, AND the inflammatory phase, AND the proliferative phase!".

"So basically your saying, it's healing way too fast?".

"Yeah, pretty much". Naruto pondered this for a little while.

' That's kind of crazy that these wounds are already scars. And kinda fucking COOL that I'm healing so fast! '.

"I've gotta say, it's kind of cool that your healing so fast.The stitches in your wounds probably dissolved sometimes after brunch, which means your immune system is scarily fast!".

Isshin had an idea to run a physical fitness test on Naruto, since the wounds in his body aren't wounds anymore.

"How about we go through some physical tests to see how healthy you are, eh? This way we can tell what it is your capable of doing and not doing".

"Uhh sure! Whatever you want me to do, doc".

For the next 30 or so minutes, Naruto grew increasingly bored and impatient as Isshin had Naruto go through various tests, from head to toe, to assess what parts of his body was healthy, and which parts of his body was still undergoing the healing phase.

After the tests, Isshin had deducted that no parts of his body were unhealthy. Quite the opposite, everything was in tip-top shape, and he was pretty much completely healed.

Isshin took off his gloves, tossing them in the trash, an expression of mild wonderment on his face in discovering the unwavering healthiness of this young boy in his office.

This level of healing is almost inhuman. He'd never seen a human heal this fast in his life, so it was strange that so many strange events were corresponding within the same day.

He didn't appear to be dangerous, but he was going to have to look into this situation deeper than just what it is in order to fully determine if he wasn't or not.

"So, we've concluded that you are completely healthy in, astonishingly, every way that can be tested at his moment.

And that is good enough for you to be able to get to exercises and the like, although I'd still advise you to take it easy".

Naruto hopped off of the chair, assuming his cue of exit with the doctors tone of finality,"Thanks Isshin, I'm really grateful for all you done for me today!". Naruto said, his happy beaming infectious, causing Isshin's small smile to turn into an equally large grin. "Ah, absolutely no problem, kiddo!".

.

.

Naruto then walked upstairs to where everyone lives and went over to the only door with a number on it.* Knock Knock Knock *.

Ichigo was quick to answer,"Yo. Wanna come in?". Ichigo offered.

Naruto entered without an answer, looking around Ichigo's room.

' Bland '. Naruto thought. Ichigo laid himself down on the bed and went back to whatever he was doing on his device.

Naruto stared in curiosity,"I've been meaning to ask, what is that?". Naruto inquired, pointing towards the rectangle in Ichigo's hands.

"You-your kidding me right? You don't know what a phone is?". Ichigo sat up, his incredulousness present all over his face.

"Nuh uh".

"Well, I don't know what to say, it's a phone. You can do a lot of shit on it that's also kind of hard to explain".

"You think I can try it out?". Naruto asked, his curiosity getting the better of him. "Sure, just don't break it dude".

Ichigo handed Naruto his phone, and for the next 10 minutes of so began teaching him the basics of owning a phone and what it does.

But, the explanation of what a phone is ended up turning into an explanation of what the Internet is, and that took 10 more minutes.

"*Sigh , think about it like this, signals from all over the world come together to create a network of information. Humans have evolved to make that information virtual. Behind THIS screen is a couple clicks to the internet.

"There is a type of signal called, 'WI-FI' that helps you access the internet, since everything is just information put into virtual access. SO, the INTERNET is a NETWORK of VIRTUAL INFORMATION. GOT IT?".

It took a while for Naruto to catch on, but eventually he got the gist of it. His phone was a device that used electricity to power something called a 'battery' which brings images to the screen.

The images on the screen can be manipulated by touching the screen, which was the only way you get to see more than one image. The Internet was a network full of information, and you get... to access that information... If you look in the right place!

"So, all I have to do is touch the screen to get from one place to another?".

"Yes. Try it out for awhile, see what you learn". Ichigo said as he walked to his closet. "I'm gonna go hang out with my friends for a while, so have fun. AND DON'T BREAK MY PHONE". Ichigo yelled as he walked out of his room.

6:02 PM/SAME DAY.

Ichigo was walking down back to the road home after picking up his childhood friend, Tatsuki Arisawa, aiming on heading to the grocery store not far from his house.

"So how have things been with the Kurosakis today?".Tatsuki asked.

"Normal as usual I guess. Except for the part where Dad took in a new patient who doesn't remember who he is or where he came from".

"Oh really? That sounds interesting. What happened to him?".

"Well, I don't know as far as he had some pretty bad scars on him, and he burned his hands. He seems to be doing okay though. Oh, and he managed to remember his name, It's Naruto. You know anybody with that name?".

Tatsuki shrugged her shoulders,"I feel like I would know someone named Naruto If I met them".

"Yeah, didn't really think so".

insert grocery beeping noise*(you know what I'm talking about).

The pair stepped into the grocery store completely on autopilot.

"Soo, what are you gonna buy". Asked the black-haired teenager.

"I dunno. I don't know what he likes". Ichigo made a beeline for the candy aisle.

"Your being awfully nice, Ichigo! What makes you wanna buy this guy candy?". Tatsuki asked while picking out a bag of chips from the next aisle.

"Whatever! He doesn't remember anything, and I'm already here, so I decided to buy him something to just for the hell of it, what's wrong with that?". Ichigo deflected to the best of his ability, picking out Hi-Chews and a Ramune soda pack for the amnesiac back at home.

"Didn't say anything was wrong with it, did I?". Tatsuki teased Ichigo, walking towards the register.

Ichigo paid for the items he got, the end total being ¥225, and began walking out of he store.

After a beat, Ichigo asked his friend a question," Hey, do you wanna go meet him?".

"Meet Naruto? I mean, I guess. I have time this evening".

And then they walked over to Ichigo's house, considering the distance between the store and his house, it didn't take very long.

The pair walked through the gateway of the Kurosaki Clinic and opened the door into the house.

"Yo, I'm back!". Ichigo said to anyone listening."I brought Tatsuki".

"HELLLOOOOOO ICHIGOOOOO!!!". Came the loud exclamation from Isshin Kurosaki, he had been watching Ichigo's arrival and leaped into a spinning back kick aimed towards Ichigo's torso.

Ichigo hadn't been expecting it, and go kicked back a couple of feet from where he was.

On the ground, Ichigo had the wind knocked out of him for a moment," *GAAASSP* *HUFF* *HUFF, WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM OLD MAN!??".

"DON'T go yelling at ME, when YOU can't even defend yourself in front of a GIRL. Also, hello Miss Arisawa, how are you doing this fine evening?". Isshin greeted the black-haired teenager.

"Uh, Hello Mr.Kurosaki, I'm doing fine!". Tatsuki replied, still relatively surprised that Ichigo got hit.

"Y'know what!? I don't have time for you today, you old goat! Cmon Tatsuki!". Ichigo decided to rush upstairs before his father put him in a submission hold.

"You kids have fun! And wAtcH yOuR bAcK yOunG maN!". Isshin said creepily.

"Jeez, can't even get within TWO INCHES of the house before I'm attacked by my hyperactive father!".

"Well, that was a pretty sweet kick, you can't li-","SHADDUP, PLEASE".

"Watch it Kurosaki! Or I might just have to throw a flying dragon kick your way!". Tatsuki retaliated.

"Alright, whatever, he's in my room. You ready?". Ichigo said, his hand already in the doorknob. "Yeah, sure".

Ichigo opened the door, and walked in to find Naruto sitting on his chair, positively glued to his phone.

"Yo, Naruto this is my friend Tatsuki I was telling you about".

Ichigo took his jacket off before tossing him the candies he bought,"And I bought you this. It's candy".

"Yo! How ya doing?". Naruto said with a friendly smile, catching the Hi-Chews in his left hand.

"Hello there! I see you've already been told about me. Did Ichigo tell you about how much he loses to me in Karate too?". Tatsuki bowed, holding her hand out to shake his, mirroring his infectious smile.

"Actually, he didn't! I didn't know you even knew Karate Ichigo!".

Naruto said shaking Tatsuki's hand, turning his head to aim the last sentence at Ichigo.

"Well I do. And it's been so long since me and you last fought anyway so It's not like you can actually tell If your still better than me". Ichigo sat down on his bed with his usual grumpy expression, interested in seeing how this meeting was going to go.

"Well, ACTUALLY, I can tell pretty well by how you don't go to your Karate classes anymore. Oh yeah, and how you just got absolutely floored by your Dad on our way in".

"That's what that sound was? Damn Ichigo, you even more of a loser than I am!". Naruto laughed at his orange counterpart.

"*URRGGH* Would you PLEASE stop talking about that".

Ichigo groaned in frustration, accepting his phone from the hand Naruto suddenly handed him. "Anyways, what did you learn while I was gone?".

"OH Right! I learned a BUNCH of things! Like the first I learned was how to find out where to search for the Internet! It took me a while, but I finally found this thing called 'Chrome' and it took me another while to figure out how it worked.

"But eventually I figured out, all I had to do was put in words for the long empty tube thing and put in words on that square box at the bottom of the screen! Once I got the hang of that it was SMOOTH sailing!". Naruto kicked back in his chair with a look of massive accomplishment on his face.

"Why do you have 34 apps open on my phone?". Ichigo asked.

"What's an app?". Naruto counter-asked.

"I'm not even gonna a get into that. Try that candy. You know what that is right?". Ichigo asked.

"Of course! I also learned about what we ate this afternoon!".

Naruto opened the pack and picked out a candy in a wrapper with Mango written on it. He opened the small wrapper and plucked out the candy inside of it.

"Verrrry colorful". Naruto tossed it into his mouth, not at all expecting the bursts of flavor he experience once tasted and chewed the candy.

"Wooow, that's amazing!!". Naruto picked two wrappers from the three remaining flavors, Kiwi and Pineapple, and ripped them open, tossing those in his mouth as well.

"Mmm...", was all that Naruto expressed, reveling in the flavors of this newfound candy.

"I'm glad you like it. Make sure you put those wrappers in his bag". Ichigo handed him a bag that he carried everything in. "And don't spoil your appetite before dinner!".

"So, how are you doing Naruto?". Tatsuki asked as she sat down on Ichigo's bed, getting her own candy from the bag of snacks she bought herself.

"I'm doing great! The 'doc said my injuries have fully healed, and I should be okay to move however I want now!". Naruto said before tossing another gummy into his mouth, and another wrapper into the bag Ichigo handed him.

"Wait-really? I thought you had full body bandages! You were dizzy and everything, your fine all of a sudden?". Ichigo asked, disbelief marked all across his face.

"Yeah, he shaid that my woundsh hafe fully heeled-pretty fasht too!". Naruto popped a 5th gummy into his mouth, talking while eating.

"Okay, SLOW DOWN. And stop talking with food in your mouth. It's disrespectful!". Ichigo chastised Naruto.

"*Gulp, uhh sorry?". Naruto didn't really understand how he was being disrespectful, but he decided to just do it anyway, he could see Ichigo's friend probably felt the same way.

' From now on, NO MORE talking while eating! ' Naruto decided.

"Anyways, that's definitely wild. I guess your injuries weren't as bad as they looked". Ichigo said, scratching his head in still present confusion.

"Yeah, guess not". Naruto took a break from eating candies and put the pack on Ichigo's desk,"So! You said you know Karate, Tatsuki?". Naruto sat straight in his chair, eager for her answer.

"Yeah, I'm pretty good at it too! Why do you ask?". Tatsuki answered, handing Ichigo a bag of chips.

"Hehe, I wanna fight you!". Naruto declared with a large smile on his face.

"Wh-what? You, wanna fight me?". Tatsuki questioned, not believing that one of the first things this kid wanted to do after losing his memory was to fight a girl very well versed in the world of hand-to-hand combat.

"I don't think that's a good idea Naruto *RRRIP *. Your gonna lose. Bad". Ichigo said, ever so helpfully.

"I know you said your good at it, and you could probably be even better than Ichigo! I already asked his dad, but he said that he wouldn't fight any kid that wasn't Ichigo".

"You asked to fight my dad!?". Ichigo's said, stopping the potato chip he was about to pop in his mouth.

"Yeah, of course I did!".

"Well, Naruto. I don't think I could fight a kid who just got out of being bed-ridden over some bad injuries. It's just not honorable. Plus, do you even know how to fight?".

"Actually, I do! I searched up the word fighting on the Internet-network thing when I saw your Ichigo's dad striking what he said were martial arts poses in the living room! After a while, I remembered me being pretty skilled in this martial art called Kung-Fu!". Naruto said with a look of pride on his face.

"Well, even so I still don't think it's a good idea to fight a kid who needed medical attention today".Tatsuki said, shrugging her shoulders with an apologetic smile on her face.

"OOOHhhh, I get it!". Naruto said with a smug expression.

"Get what?", came the inquiry from the raven-haired middle schooler.

"Your scared your gonna lose to an amnesiac with bandages on his hands. I get it, I get it. You have to keep your limbs in good shape if you wanna continue defeating sub-par cannon fodder". Naruto teased, feigning a know-it-all expression.

The childhood friends stared at the golden boy in shock.

"I don't mean to insult your intelligence or anything, but how do you know what cannon fodder is if you don't know what a phone OR a phone application is?".

"Googled it!".

Ichigo was surprised at Naruto's continuous display of his aptitude for hands-on learning. He wasn't catching on at all when he was trying to show him before he left.

While Ichigo sat impressed on his bed, Tatsuki stood up in immediate irritation,"Oh YEAH!? IF YOU WANT AN ASS-KICKING THIS BAD, COME AND GET IT!". Naruto hit her in her pride, and it was unusually effective.

She stormed out of Ichigo's room, and Naruto went giggling after her.

"What the- you guys are actually gonna fight!?". And Ichigo trailed behind.

6:37 PM/ SAME DAY

The trio jogged to a nearby park named, "Tsubakidai Park " and found it to be mostly empty.

Tatsuki directed the golden boy to an empty patch of grass , asking him to stand directly in front of her.

"Okay, here are the rules, tough guy! The first to tap out wins, everything is allowed, and there is no time limit! Simple, do you understand that?". Tatsuki said as she lifted the sleeves of her purple long sleeve shirt.

"Hell yeah! I don't know why, but I'm kind of excited!!".

"Excited to get your ass beat". Came the comment from Ichigo, who was watching from a bench in front of them.

"Okay, the match begins in three...two..."
