We left the Moonleaf Dryads' forest and resumed walking on the golden path.

"I wonder where we'll bump into this time?" Wendy thought aloud.

"We might learn or discover something else like how we did with the dryads." says Yukino.

"Who knows, but, we can possibly run into trouble. We're good at doing that. Don't let your guards down. There's alot we don't know about this world we live in, we'll always find and learn something new. Just like we did with the dryads. Who knows we could learn of something that could bring destruction upon us. We must be prepared for anything like that. The world is full of unexpected surprises." Scarlet-sama spoke, looking forward.

Most of us all gave a nod at her words. She spoke up again a while after, "I really wonder what will come to us next..."

Silence enveloped us. Until someone broke it.

Natsu's POV

The quietness is too loud.

I've been wondering about this for a while...should I ask? Yeah, maybe I should.

"Sarada, can I ask you something?"

She turned her head towards me. "Sure."

"What's chakra? Like...what meaning is it in your world?"

"Definition you mean?" Lucy says, I'm guessing correcting me.

"What's definition?"

"Definition is another word for the meaning. Asking for the meaning of a word, asking for the definition." Lucy explains.

"Ohhhhh, yeah, what's the definition?" I asked again.

"Chakra is created when two other forms of energy, known collectively as one's 'stamina', are moulded together. Physical energy is collected from each and every one of the body's cells and can be increased through training, stimulants, and exercise. Spiritual energy is derived from the mind's consciousness and can be increased through studying, meditation, and experience. These two energies becoming more powerful will in turn make the created chakra more powerful. Therefore, practising a technique repeatedly will build up experience, increasing one's spiritual energy, and thus allowing more chakra to be created. As a result, the ninja is able to do that same technique with more power. This same cycle applies for physical energy, except the ninja needs to increase their endurance instead. Some unique individuals have substantial potential that enable them to exponentially increase their chakra reserves in a relatively short amount of time. At any given time, a ninja will have a 'maximum' amount of chakra that they can form and use before it runs out and they need to rest to replenish it. With practice this maximum can be increased, but to a certain extent as they are limited to the quantity and strength of chakra that their genetics grants them." Sarada explains.

"I don't understand half of that but it sounds a bit like magic...is it magic?" Lucy facepalmed next to me.

"Chakra is actually a form of magic." She answers.

"WHOA REALLY?!" Almost everyone exclaimed.

"Yep, in my world, magic is seen as something that requires rituals and stuff, some people think it's more along the lines of spiritual energy. So yes, chakra is like...a different form of magic we could say. Why'd you ask?"

"W-Well...I've been feeling kinda weird sometime after I consumed your Fire Style thing. More like, I feel a kinda unfamiliar power flowing in me." I scratch the back of my head.

Sarada suddenly slapped her face with her hands. "I KNEW IT! Since jutsus are made with chakra and you literally ATE the jutsu, you also ATE the chakra from it!!! No one's ever ATE chakra before so I don't know if it's gonna affect you in a bad way or-" I cut her off.
