Spoiler So...is it now impossible Naruto runs out of chakra

[paradigm1977]

Or perhaps at least unlikely? I thought I might throw this out there.

Numerous people have brought up Naruto saying how he's low or almost out of chakra. For a while now.

So here's a new half baked theory that goes beyond borrowing kurama's chakra.

We learned in chapter 90 that stamina (=body and spiritual energy)fuels both Taijutsu and your chakra pool. We know that Naruto's genetic gift is his stamina and recuperative power.

Ninja's can train to improve their foot speed and attack speed. And their stamina. Uchiha can become more proficient with their dojutsu.

Has Naruto begun to master his own recuperative process? Perhaps Uzumaki stamina is more impressive than just having a lot of it. Can he now regenerate stamina at a pace that matches the chakra he must generate for all but his most powerful jutsu he has to use?

Indirectly, while he can borrow chakra from kurama, is there a specific heightened or synergistic stamina affect that occurs when a kyubbi is inside a Uzumaki? Can Kurama help naruto's chakra indirectly, by helping his stamina regeneration?

So we don't have any real facts to argue about this. That I can think of. So this is more of a casual thread. But it might explain what has not been said about Naruto's chakra use.

Would explain his ability to split his chakra reserves over 1000 times with his shadow clones.

[lolohwd]

So its like Tsunades regeneration but instead of actual health he is regenerating chakra/stamina? thats pretty damn badass.

I think he's channeling the chakra of the other tailed beasts. That's what the fist bumps were all about. They were locked in the Gedo Mazo, but I don't think Obito knew what he was risking by allowing them to contact Naruto. I suspect he has the full Juubi chakra capacity now, even if he doesn't quite fully grasp how to use it. I predicted before that he'd become the Juubi's jinchuuriki, and I think he's on his way, although I won't go so far as to say he's actually that jinchuuriki yet. I think Naruto punked Obito though, and I think Obito can't really complete his plan now, unless he kills Naruto.

Doesn't really matter. He'll only ever run out of chakra when it's convenient for him to do so. Kishihack+1

[ILIKEPIE]

He is Naruto if he runs out, someone will believe in him and he'll be recharged with more chakra

[Topik]

hmm, well in my opinion he can run out of chakra, but it is very slow process. Naruto has one of the biggest chakra pool, Kurama has almost infinite chakra + he can always order one of his clones to gather Natural chakra + like someone stated, I think other demons/jinchurikis gave him part of his chakra.

Maybe only Madara, and Gold/Silver have so much chakra. And probably that much sources of it, makes him easier to regenerate it.

But still, he will run out of it, and then someone will believe in him, and Naruto will scream more (like in Dragon Ball) and will be able to fight again.

[Maruko]

He's an Uzumaki, explains a lot.
His mom was able to survive Bijuu extraction.

[THE susanoo]

im not sure if you saw in chapter 1, naruto used PnJ which means his chakra is infinante, as soon as he used it the name of the story went from 'The Uchihas' to naruto -__-

[Kyūbi no Yōko]

Uzumaki compatibility with a Bijuu so he gets near infinite Chakra is plausible as a hypothesis.

Since Senju are distant relatives and Senju being the half of the SOSP and since he was the Bijuu of Juubi and had enough power to bear it and control it, then it does make sense that the Uzumaki possess a power similar.

I'm thinking, Kurama and Naruto when united have the power to regenerate chakra at a very fast pace.

[Wooster]

Kurama agreed to work with Naruto. That frees up a lot of chakra.

[Larry01239]

maybe he is in a fusion of sage mode and fox mode?

[Fuuin]

Subject doesn't even really matter. Where'd Tobi get all his chakra? And MAdara literally has infinite chakra.

At this point who really cares if these guys are pulling out chakra from no where? Its strength of spirit and this is the ultimate clash, they wouldn't be heroes if they didn't have the will power and soul power to meet the ultimate challenge.

[PrinceofPeace]

what/who does not run out of chakra?

[Jutsu Junkie]

I think it's worth noting that the only two characters to ever actually run out of chakra were Nagato and Kakashi. Everyone else managed to retain enough to survive, or died from something else.

Naruto's was once taken by Kisami, in the hall. And I believe Sasuke ran out vs Itachi. Could be wrong on the second.

Your train of thought at 11:03 (my time of your post) are like mine at 3am. bijuu of juubi!!!

But my point is that if you run out, by definition you die. If you didn't actually die, then you didn't really run out. Sasuke just got really really low. I don't think Naruto actually ever had all of his taken, because he wasn't reincarnated like Kakashi. If that happened to Naruto, I have no memory of that...

Yeah I was joking about you writing bijuu instead of jinchuuriki.

Technically, running out of chakra isn't the same as your definition according to ch. 90 or 94... that has the diagram on stamina being converted into a chakra pool, rather than taijutsu. It's a different part of the engine.

You might have stamina, but not enough to generate chakra. When you die isn't just running out, it's when you try to use a jutsu that takes more chakra than you can generate. In other words, you go into the negative. That can kill you. That was a danger of chidori and kage bunshin use.

running out doesn't kill you from anything i remember reading. It's the negative that can kill you. Also I think there might have been a mention that if you don't have enough chakra, a jutsu might just fail. I guess that means you had enough stamina to protect you, but if the chakra and then stamina runs out, you die.

Oh. How boring. In that case, Kishi leaves himself too many obvious escapes. If what you are saying is accurate, then I doubt Tsunade will die, even though it would set up Naruto perfectly, considering Kakashi's state.

nagato didn't make it. His was tougher, but he was in better shape. At least had his legs, as sucky as they were.
