Mayoshima

Mayoshima (迷島, Literally meaning: Lost Island) is a group of islands located within the southern ocean, thousands of miles away from the 's coastline.

Overview
The islands of Mayoshima previously didn't exist, as the location of where they currently stand use to be nothing more than open ocean. They were a rather recent creation by Metsumi Hanabara, in order to provide refuge for herself from those who wanted to steal her unique powers. Using those powers, she created microorganisms that fed off the ambient natural energy in the environment, creating solid structures at an enormous rate that rose out of the ocean bed. This became a new land and overtime, became covered in forest. While Metsumi has slowed down the building process of the islands, the land still continues to grow a few inches annually.

The microorganisms that have built the land has also affected the islands flora. As a result of them absorbing natural energy, the plants that have been exposed to the copious amounts of it have mutated and evolved into entirely new species, found nowhere else in the world. One of these species is known as the "Lost Fruit" (迷の果実, Mayo no Kajitsu), a plant who's various properties have made it become coveted. However, these plants can't be grown outside of the islands, as they immediately wither and die. Not even those who are proficient with Wood Release can grow them. As a result, these fruits are extremely rare outside its natural environment and often fetch high prices.

Since the islands were made by Metsumi's chakra, she can detect everything on the island in clear detail, picking up on any foreign chakra signatures that happen to stumble upon the islands and finding their location.
