IN NarutoThe Otsutsuki clan is deeply associated with the formation of chakra on the ground. Basically, the Ninjians would never have existed if Kaguya and Isshiki Otsutsuki were not assigned a mission on this planet. Indra and Asura Otsutsuki, grandchildren of Kaguya, are also associated with the creation of Ninjutsu.

In fact, Indra is attributed with the creation of ninjutsu that caused a permanent conflict between him and asura, which is key in Naruto. For centuries, Indra and Asura reincarnated and their descendants continued their dispute, sometimes without knowing it.

Uzumaki and otsutsuki clans are actually deeply connected. But what is their connection?

Clan otsutsuki and the origin of the chakra

Chakra on the ground did not exist as we know in Naruto The universe in front of the Otsutsuki clan came to cultivate the divine tree. While the chakra is a substance coming from life on Earth, people could not manipulate it at that time. Kaguya Otsutsuki and Isshiki Otsutsuki were sent to the ground to cultivate the divine tree until it created the fruit of chakras containing the genetic material of all beings. The fruit chakra provides massive forces to anyone who eats it.

Although it is not clear exactly what they were supposed to do after the chakra fruit bloomed, Kaguya clearly changed his mind and betrayed Issshiki and tried to kill him. Then the fruit of the chakra consumed and became incredibly powerful. IN Boruto: Naruto's next generationMomoshiki revealed that Kaguya was in fact a low -floor ossutsuki, which was to be sacrificed to ten tails. Sometime after eating the fruit chakra gave birth to two children, Hagoromo and Hamura Otsutsuki. They inherited part of her chakra.

Who were Indra and Asura Ottsuki?

After eating fruit, Kaguya ruled over the ground for years when she apparently attached to him. At some point, however, she fell on her desires and began to believe that she was again entitled to all chakras. She devised a plan to murder her sons, but could beat her and seal her before she could. Then Hamura went to the moon while Hagoromo stayed on the ground.

Hagoromo believed that the chakra should be spread around the world of peace and spiritual teachings. Therefore, he created a religion called Ninshu to lead people to the peaceful world of chakra distributions to join each other. Like his mother, He also had two children, Indra and Asura OtsutsukiHe's older with Indra. After the Black Zetsu was manipulated, Indra was armor chakra and created ninjutsu.

I am the one who creates peace and order.

Indra believed that he was entitled to the successor of his father, the believer of peace can only be achieved by war. Hagoromo, however, disagreed with his opinions and appointed his deadly bed asur, who believed that peace should be achieved through love as his successor. This led the Indra to the war against Asure to get back its “justified” place. The brothers broke up and Indra's line gave rise to Uchiha clan while Asur's line gave birth to Senju and Uzumaki clans. It is said that this conflict between Indra and Asura is the root of rivalry between Uchiha and Senja.

Did Indra and Asura reincarnate?

IN Narutoafter a person dies, their chakra and souls can reincarnate to another ship; This is especially true for OTSUTSUKI members who do it through karma. This happened to Indra and Asus for centuries who have been continuously under the offspring, usually Uchiha and Senja. For example, Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were previous reincarnations of Indra and Asury.

After Madara died, they were reincarnated to Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki. The Uzumaki clan is the branch of the Senju clan and members of the two clans are regularly married, namely the Iz political reasons. Therefore, even if he is not Senju, Naruto descends from Asur's line as Uzumaki and probably has a relatives in his blood line also closer to Senja. Kaguya Otsutsuki has recognized them as their grandchildren, which means they are really reincarnation of Indra and Asury. Naruto and Sasuke also seemingly violated the hate cycle between Asura and Indra, so maybe these two may finally relax in peace as soon as their latest vessels are away.

In short, Kaguy's line is like:

Kaguya
- Hagoromo
  - Indra → Uchiha clan → Sasuke Uchiha (after generations)
  - Asura → Senju/Uzumaki Clans → Naruto Uzumaki (after generations)
- Hamura → Hyuga Clan

Are all members of the Otsutsuki clan?

Clan otsutsuki is displayed in Boraho as the greatest enemy of humanity. The sequel to Naruto has expanded their tradition about them and showed them as parasitic aliens who exploit the planets without taking care of the destruction they cause, and only becomes stronger with the fruit of chakra. A great example is Shibai Otsutsuki, which is said to have climbed to the divinity after becoming madly powerful.

But not necessarily all otsutsuki are bad. We saw with examples of Hamur and Hagoromo OTSUTSUKI members who can be good and look for peace. There is a chance that other members of Otsutsuki who disagree with the ethics of the invasion clan and the exploitation of planets in endless efforts for power.
