The seed of the God Tree was taken from the ruins of the Otsutsuki God. Originally, she had given one to Momoshiki, but Ino had kept several for herself. Now, rapidly planting the seed with her own chakra serving as the energy source, there was absolutely no need for a Ten-Tails, nor was there any need to devour an Otsutsuki.
Just moments after being planted, the seed began to frantically absorb energy from the earth.
A thick, sturdy trunk rose from the ground. In a mere span of tens of seconds, Konoha Village was shrouded in shadow. Afterward, the tree's growth rate slowed only slightly, its roots continuously drawing nutrients from the soil beneath their feet as the God Tree became increasingly colossal.
The greasy-haired, powdered-faced Sasuke was still holding a rose in his hand. Witnessing this appalling scene, he trembled in terror. He shouted a couple of sentences, but Ino paid him no mind whatsoever. As the trunk of the God Tree grew thicker and larger, buildings within the village collapsed one after another. The soil churned, and the earth cracked open. He lost the ability to think, relying solely on physical instinct to retreat, eventually scrambling on all fours to flee the village.
The movements of the village ninjas were also extremely fast. More than two hundred ninjas launched an offensive against the God Tree, but their attacks were like clay oxen entering the sea—completely ineffective.
More ninjas were organizing the evacuation of the villagers. The crowd was in a state of incomparable panic, with people saying all sorts of things.
"What on earth is happening?"
"How did a giant tree suddenly appear in the center of the village?"
"Wait, look at the moon in the sky?!"
Moonlight filtered through the shade of the trees, spilling onto the earth. Everyone looked up in astonishment; they remembered it being daytime, so how had the moon popped out now?
"Infinite Tsukuyomi!"
In order to post-natally cultivate several Otsutsukis here, Ino directly projected her pupil power onto the surface of the moon, creating a reality version of the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
A few Konoha ninjas who saw her attempted to attack, but these people would all become cornerstones for the God Tree and the aspiring Otsutsukis, so she didn't kill a single one.
Kakashi, who could be called the typical "hard-working try-hard," and the listless, completely unmotivated Might Guy were both struck down by her hand.
The brilliance of the Infinite Tsukuyomi enveloped the globe. All resistance and noise vanished along with it, and the entire world became incomparably quiet in an instant.
Seeing that the growth of the God Tree had reached a certain scale, she began to form hand seals.
This was delicate work.
"God: Nativity of a World of Trees!"
The God Tree lowered countless vines, wrapping up all intelligent lifeforms. Afterward, they formed white tree cocoons, all of which hung from the tree.
Ino clapped her hands, very satisfied with this result.
Come on, start the grind inside the Infinite Tsukuyomi!
Referencing Lord Madara's experience, she knew that if she let them evolve into Otsutsukis under the natural flow of time in the outside world, it would be impossible without fifty or sixty years.
It was much faster inside the genjutsu, and it didn't require Ino to use a massive amount of Time Power to accelerate it.
One day in the Infinite Tsukuyomi equaled one minute in the outside world. She would only have to wait here for a few days to get results.
She also buried the corpses of Kimimaro and Ginkaku at the roots of the God Tree. These two corpses had given her a massive amount of help in the past. After countless rounds of cellular renewal and chakra scouring within the corpses, all impurities had been eliminated. The remaining 99.99% was composed of Hashirama cells and Uchiha cells.
These two corpses were no longer useful to her, so now they transformed into a reward mechanism within the God Tree. Whoever performed well would be given Hashirama cells or Uchiha cells.
She also had quite a few Sharingan in her possession, which she threw under the tree at this time as well.
Ino's goal was simple: to use this method of "raising Gu"—a battle royale of survival—to forcibly spawn six individuals of the Otsutsuki clan who used what she called Reverse Chakra.
The flow of time within the Infinite Tsukuyomi was very fast. She had only buried two corpses in the outside world, but in their collective hallucination, the Five Great Shinobi Villages had already beaten each other into a pot of porridge over a trivial matter.
The performance of Sasuke on this side was also quite eye-catching. After witnessing the scene of his own brother dying in battle, he directly unlocked the Mangekyo Sharingan.
The Sasuke in this Infinite Tsukuyomi was just like Uchiha Madara once was; even possessing Hashirama cells, he needed decades of time to grind away bit by bit until he unlocked his own Rinnegan. Only then would he meet Ino's Otsutsuki standard.
Sasuke had an innate advantage; other ninjas wouldn't be this fast.
Ino covered the entire planet with a layer of dense black fog. Ensuring there were no omissions, she sat cross-legged under the tree, closed her eyes, and waited.
Two days passed in the outside world. The first ten years quietly passed within the Infinite Tsukuyomi. All intelligent life was plunged into the collective genjutsu. The wars between the Five Great Shinobi Villages, the Five Great Nations, and various small and medium ninja villages became increasingly intense. The flames of war spread across the entire world, peace vanished completely, and heroes rose with the times.
The first Otsutsuki born within the genjutsu surprised Ino a little.
The first to successfully fuse Uchiha cells and Hashirama cells turned out to be Orochimaru!
He seized Kimimaro's body inside the genjutsu. Outside, Ino controlled the God Tree to synchronize him physically. Since the brain believed it understood, and the brain believed the body understood, that meant the cells within the body pretty much understood as well.
Orochimaru sensed some unreality of the genjutsu during his continuous experiments. He seemingly wanted to turn the tables and see what the "real world" looked like. Ino couldn't suppress his thoughts, so she could only apply massive amounts of suggestion to him, barely managing to bluff past it.
Orochimaru obtained a portion of the Kimimaro cells Ino had buried under the tree. This was a completely real substance. Afterward, through various scientific stimulation methods, he was the first to awaken the Rinnegan.
The second successful one... was the Haruno Sakura of this side!
The Haruno Sakura here was essentially a replica of the Seventh Universe's Ino. She collected corpses in secret, collected Sharingan, took Tsunade as her master, obtained Hashirama cells, and finally fused the two bloodlines, becoming the second to awaken the Rinnegan.
The third was Kakuzu.
This guy wasn't greedy for money nor afraid of death. He began making preparations in secret from the era when the ninja villages were established, fusing a total of three Senju clan hearts and two Uchiha hearts.
The fourth was Sasuke.
On the tenth day in the outside world, during the fiftieth year within the genjutsu, the descendant of Menma Uzumaki revived the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Izuna.
Lord Madara on this side died early. Before dying, he gave his eyes to his younger brother Izuna, and then promptly took his box lunch and left. Izuna didn't leave Konoha Village initially either. It was only after the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, came to power that the conflict between the two erupted completely, and he left in a fit of pique.
Izuna was the fifth Otsutsuki to awaken the Rinnegan.
Ino waited bitterly for another two days before the final target finally appeared.
It was Moegi Kazamatsuri, whose family possessed the Grass Release inheritance, later obtaining Wood Release abilities, and finally fusing with the Uchiha bloodline.
Orochimaru, Sakura, Kakuzu, Sasuke, Izuna, and Moegi. The six Otsutsukis were gathered.
In order to provide them with enough chakra, the God Tree shriveled by more than half. It still looked very tall at this moment, but let alone a Chakra Fruit, even many of the roots deep underground had withered.
Just as Ino was about to release the six of them from their tree cocoons, she sensed something amiss. It seemed she had miscalculated something.
