Naruto: The Hidden Protector

49: Would this wake up your memory, my dear niece

In her long life, Izanami had numerous professions. With time being the only thing she lacked she was able to perfect her professions even if she had a minimal talent. For instance, she once wanted to study medicine since she had free time. And while doing so she found out she had a little talent in that field. But with her sheer determination alone she managed to be hailed as the medical sage who could cure any illnesses.

To her talent is just a VIP pass for the journey ahead. What really mattered was the hard work and dedication the person put in to reach his goal.

Take Might Guy for example. He doesn't have an impressive chakra amount as Naruto or any great teacher to guide him. But did he give up? No, he worked harder than everyone. He said he wanted to catch up to Kakashi and he did just that. He knew that he had only taijutsu so he became a taijutsu freak who could even kill a being close to the six-path level. And he did all that with his hard work alone.

And Izanami, similar to him, didn't give up on anyone or anything just because of the difficulty it had. She, like a researcher, researched many fields to improve herself. She researched wood style and made wood style from scratch. She wanted to create the unique fire of the two tails and she did just that. By combining different chakra natures with fire chakra she achieved her goal. And the blue fire is just one of her creations.

By combining a great amount of fire and lightning chakra blue flames were made. And by adding yin chakra into that mix you could make flames similar to Amatarasu. Also if you double the fire chakra volume and compress it you could create flames that are similar to the sun.

One of Izanami's research projects was time. In the Naruto world, there are only a few instances where time ninjutsu or artifacts are used but in all of those instances, they are mentioned to be quite overpowered.

So to research this Izanami observed how the Dragon Vain in Roran worked. And to her surprise, she found out that the chakra gathered there belonged to none other than the planet itself. Furthermore the chakra there is not something just anyone could manipulate as it contained the will of the planet.

As she continued her research Izanami finally came to two conclusions. One Time is a law governed by the planet itself. So to use any ninjutsu that uses time needs to pay a huge price. As the planet itself is governing this law you must prepare an equivalent exchange.

Two the time law cannot be directly tampered with by any being unless it is a planet. This meant that even her father couldn't directly interfere or manipulate time as it is impossible. And even when one is interfering with time they are essentially just using the world as a middleman.

From this, Izanami had an interesting hypothesis. The time-traveling artifact that the Ōtsutsuki clan possesses might actually be a former planet's will contained within an artifact. This could explain its ability to traverse timelines, as it can communicate with the wills of other planets.

This also clarifies why the energy consumption when using that artifact is relatively small compared to the immense energy and sacrifices needed for time ninjutsu. It's akin to shopping in a supermarket with a membership card that grants a 45% discount on every transaction while others have to pay the full price.

At first, Izanami was a bit down when she realized she couldn't directly manipulate the time law as she wasn't a planet. And just when she was about to head back home she suddenly realised a small detail of her second wish.

Her second wish was to have a body that is able to manipulate any energy. Initially, she thought this would allow her to use natural energy. But what if this also applies to laws?

Normally you wouldn't be able to answer this question as you have to try it yourself. But that problem was solved by her third wish. Her third wish was to have knowledge of all the anime worlds.

Contrary to what she thought at first, this wish only allows her to search for the knowledge she wants. Think of it as a search browser where you can search and learn everything. So the only limitation she has is her imagination and eagerness. If she never thought of a subject she wouldn't be able to get the necessary knowledge.

With a bit of excitement, Izanami searched for the necessary knowledge. And after days of searching, she finally reached a conclusion.

In the tensura world, laws can be manipulated with Ultimate skills. And to use ultimate skills you would need a huge amount of magicules.

So using this as a reference Izanami manipulates the Dragon Vain's chakra and familiarises herself with it. After she got the hang of it she tried to tap into the Time law. With a few weeks of hard work, she managed to familiarise herself with how to manipulate the Time Law.

After that, she tried to use her own chakra to do the process instead of using the Dragon Vain. Although it was very hard she gradually began to get the hang of it. And after another decade of practice and hard work, she could use time ninjutsu like it was any other ninjutsu.

" Time release: Suspended World "

As Izanami's words fell, time began to stop. The clouds, birds, and even humans stopped their movements as if they were frozen in place. And in this frozen world, only two people were able to move.

" It's been quite some time Kiyomi, I wonder if you still remember me, " Izanami said as she walked towards Kiyomi with a small smile.

Kiyomi narrowed her eyes. Although she could feel a bit of familiarity with this person she wasn't sure. But she knew one thing: this person is dangerous. So she didn't reply and just readied her weapons.

Seeing her like that, Izanami froze for a second. Then she smiled wryly and said, "Right you have never seen me in this form huh? Well not surprising since I have changed a bit too much for anyone to recognize me at first glance. And Indra was never one to keep our childhood photos. "

Saying so, Izanami began to undo her transformation. She usually stays in her childlike form due to not wanting to be leered at by men and women left and right. She is that beautiful after all.

Her body glowed as her height began to increase. Her child-like body slowly began to transform from a child into an adult. After the light subsided Izanami's full beauty was fully displayed to the world once again.

"Would this wake up your memory, my dear niece?" Izanami said in a melodious voice that would captivate any being.

Seeing the familiar figure, Kiyomi had a shocked expression. And soon her eyes watered as she ran towards Izanami and hugged her. While sobbing she muttered, " Aunt Izanami "

Izanami comforted her niece and began to stroke her head. She smiled gently and said, " It's good to see you again too, little Kiyomi. "
