Chapter 273: Ch273. Nature energy?

Author Note: So, I have watched the last Naruto movie and I must say I am not impressed, so if some facts are off from canon, don't blame me :D.

---

The group sat around a table in Rei's new Moon Palace...

"Could you repeat it? I think I must have misheard you. For a moment, I got the impression you said the moon is ready to go ka-boom at any moment." Rei looked intently at Yuriko who sheepishly smiled.

"Yeah... about that." She shrugged, "I just investigated the strange chakra saturation you felt deep under the surface as you told me. It was more time-consuming than hard to find out what it is supposed to do. The idea is simple and many ninjas use it even nowadays on a smaller scale when they are hired for a demolition mission. The strange chakra is strategically located in weak spots of the planet and upon activation, it will most likely act like an overpowered exploding tag, creating a lot of cracks in the foundation of the planet, making it crumble on itself."

"And the gravitation will do the rest." Konan nodded.

"Damn, that's so cool! How come I did not come up with that idea?" Mei quipped.

"Maybe because that's too complex for you?" Ringo snorted with a small grin forming on her lips.

"So, the moon is basically a floating meteor shower just waiting to happen." Rei summed up, inwardly groaning.

'If it's not one thing, then it's another. Don't I have enough problems with villains on my home planet? Now I have to pay attention to some dickhead on the moon who can make it rain in pieces on my villages? This is such bullshit.' Rei thought.

He knew there was some idiot descended from Hamura living on the moon and that he would cause trouble in the far future after the Fourth Ninja War. That, however, was the extent of his memory when it came to Naruto's last movie. Finding out the dude is able to use the moon as his weapon was a bit heavier revelation than he expected.

"Maybe you could let me use one of my planet-destroying Jutsu now?" Mei excitedly asked, finally getting an opportunity to be destructive and helpful.

Unfortunately for her, Konan's pointed looks quickly told her that no, this was not her time to shine. In fact, they looked at her as if she just said something retarded.

As for Rei, he found it funny enough to goodnaturedly chuckle at Mei's proposition. Reaching out, he affectionately rubbed her head before saying, "If destroying the moon was an option, then I would have no qualms about it. Unfortunately, the moon is incredibly important, Mei."

"Is it?" Mei pouted.

"Didn't we go through what the moon causes to occur on our planet during our lessons when you were still genin?" Konan asked with an edge in her tone, miffed that Mei didn't remember.

"Your Jutsu would not work anyway," Rei interjected, "The moon produces far too little nature energy for the effect of your planet-destroying Jutsu to spread. All of them work by abusing the chain reaction and the endless supply of nature energy to spread destructive force. That would not work here. The nature energy barely penetrates the surface so your Jutsu would not have enough fuel..." Rei suddenly stopped talking and his eyebrows furrowed. After a while, he finally exclaimed in realization, "Son of a bitch!"

Tsunade blinked while tilting her head. She understood nature energy the most after Rei. Now that she thought about it, considering the moon produced it too, calling it nature energy might be a bit wrong too but... Anyway, thinking about what was just said, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, "The moon-crumbling Jutsu under the surface on the moon works on the same basis as Mei's Jutsus, doesn't it?"

Rei mutely nodded. There was no way to destroy a planet with a single Jutsu. If the dude on the moon could do that, there would be no need for blowing up the moon. Coming down on the Earth and directly destroying it would have been enough. If somebody other than Mei found out there is nature energy on the moon and then realized a way to use that energy in a chain reaction...

'Hamura... you son of a bitch.' Rei inwardly cursed.

He didn't need to remember the Last Naruto Movie to realize who was responsible. There was only one guy who lived on the moon and almost reached the level of the Sage of the Six Paths.

'Wait... bitch?' Rei tilted his head as an idea suddenly struck him. "He didn't..." He whispered, looking at Tsunade.

"What?" She asked.

"The Moon is just a big ball of rock. Even if it could produce the energy we know as nature energy, would it be enough for such a big-scale Jutsu? I doubt our planet produces enough of the said energy to completely and instantly crumble itself from inside out. Continuously destroying it should be possible..." Rei looked at Mei, "It would take a few months even for Mei's Jutsus but it could happen. But instantly? I don't think our planet has enough energy for that. Plus, every philosophy on our planet regarding that energy is saying it is the energy of life and comes from nature itself." Rei started.

"Which may be wrong." Tsunade reminded, "The Moon does not have nature, not to mention much life, and yet, it is producing nature energy. That should be enough to disprove these philosophies, no?"

"You are looking at the problem from the perspective of a researcher, Tsunade." Konan pipped in. "In that case, why do these philosophies work for people trying to master Senjutsu on our planet? If the energy had nothing to do with life or nature, then the Senjutsu 'Masters' must be misunderstanding the whole thing and using a flawed concept, yet, it clearly works for them. Either the concept is right, or it is close enough to the truth to work while being entirely different."

"My Senjutsu has a snow attribute in it. Would that even be possible without nature energy being connected to... well, nature?" Yuriko asked.

That was when Mei leaned closer to Ringo and whispered, "Do you have any clue what they are talking about?"

Ringo looked at the younger redhead and knitted her eyebrows, "No. Just let them. They will get tired eventually." She shrugged.

The debate about nature energy and the whole concept around it continued for a few more minutes. It was quite important. After all, if they understood what it was, then they could find a better way to use it and improve themselves, no?

"It doesn't really matter." Rei suddenly exclaimed, stopping the entire discussion, "The important thing is... why is a dead planet like the Moon producing enough energy to do what would be impossible on our planet?" He swept the women around the table with his gaze, a knowing grin on his face as he had an inkling what exactly was powering up the entire thing, "There must be a different source of the energy, no?"
