What had she overlooked?
Ino ran through her entire plan again and finally discovered the crux of the problem.
The Seventh Universe was successful because she acted as the main body, allowing the other five Otsutsukis to gather and form a Super Otsutsuki. But the Sixth Universe side... everyone here was a knock-off; there wasn't a single one capable of fighting.
If it was just these six people, gathering them together wouldn't be enough to rival her or form a new balance at all.
There was no other way—she needed one more!
With the six individuals who had already reached the Otsutsuki stage fallen into slumber, Ino began to wait for the seventh fated person.
She waited and waited.
It had to be said, this fated person was truly destined.
An Ino Yamanaka approaching one hundred years of age finally mastered the highest stage of the Yamanaka clan—the fourth stage secret art. During the Ninth Great Ninja World War, she assimilated the Shinigami, then believed she traveled back in time to her teenage years, occupying Hinata's body. In the world of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, she acted like a protagonist, foreseeing the future and striking first in everything. Finally, relying on massive resources and the village's funding, she awakened the Sage's eye: the Tenseigan.
Does the Tenseigan count as Otsutsuki? Inevitably, it does.
The seven slumbering Otsutsukis were slowly lowered from the tree cocoons. Orochimaru, the first to awaken, showed obvious signs of waking up. Unfortunately, the gap between him and Ino was too great; it simply wasn't something that willpower or intelligence could make up for.
The seven individuals, in a state between waking and sleeping, successively raised one hand. They placed their palms on 'Hinata,' and then 'Hinata' placed her palms against Ino's, continuously transmitting the chakra from their bodies.
During the transmission process, Orochimaru tried to open his eyes twice.
Ino was speechless. Are you a drama queen? Why do you have so many issues!
This guy's resistance was a large cut above the rest. It felt like his will was even more tenacious than the Orochimaru of the Seventh Universe. That perseverance bordered on stubbornness, and Ino had to drag his nearly awakening consciousness into a deeper layer of genjutsu twice.
She continued to channel the chakra of the seven people into her own body.
Not knowing what changes would occur, she was very careful at first.
But after the chakra piled up to a critical point, she discovered that all the chakra gathered together and entered her soul.
On the day she fused the chakra of the other five Otsutsukis, Ino had found the 365th chakra point within her soul. This discovery was particularly important; she had even written this information into the Yamanaka clan's secret inheritance.
But looking at it now, that judgment had been incorrect.
All these chakras from the Sixth Universe rushed into her soul, centering on the 365th point, and quickly formed a brand-new network of chakra meridians that existed only within the soul.
The 365th point she previously perceived disappeared. Inside the body, there were 364 points, while in the soul, there was a patch of seemingly blurred chakra meridians.
"So that's how it is!" She pulled her perspective higher, using her sensory abilities to observe herself from a distance in reverse.
She discovered that at this moment, the body and the soul achieved an incredibly marvelous complementary relationship. The body could be seen as the final missing piece of the soul's chakra meridians, and conversely, the soul could be treated as the final acupuncture point in the body's meridians.
Once the seven tool-people finished transporting their chakra, they all fainted in unison.
Ino shook her arms, and a brilliant golden pillar of light shot out. The scorching column of flame pierced through heaven and earth, dispelling the dark clouds within a hundred miles and the mist she had set up earlier. Countless energies rushed into the sky, soon turning into golden raindrops under the influence of gravity and sprinkling down upon the earth.
Originally, due to the God Tree's fierce extraction, the soil of this planet had become extremely barren. But under this feedback, the land was once again filled with vitality.
"Now, this is a Super Otsutsuki that has surpassed a Super Otsutsuki..." Ino felt this naming style was truly shameful. She really didn't have the face to name this form Super Otsutsuki 2.
She would be too embarrassed to see anyone if she said it out loud.
She looked at the battle power value on her panel. Her base battle power was 15 million. At this moment, having unleashed her full power, the battle power figure had skyrocketed to a height of 195 million—a full 13-fold increase.
This battle power multiplier still couldn't compare to a Super Saiyan.
Super Saiyan 1 is 50 times the base, Super Saiyan 2 is 100 times, and Super Saiyan 3 is 400 times. How could she compare? However, because she had absorbed the remnant souls of two Supreme Kais, her base battle power was relatively higher.
"What should I call it?" Ino had a bit of difficulty with naming.
She thought it over and over but couldn't come up with a good name.
In the end, she decided it was better to be simple and easy to understand: just call it Super Otsutsuki 2!
What was there to be afraid of? It's not like she would shout it out loud. Could whispering it quietly be against the law?
Ino released the Super Otsutsuki 2 transformation state. Before, at 6 times the power, she could persist, but now at 13 times, she felt as if she were carrying a weight of ten thousand tons. Her stamina in the transformed state drained like a flood discharge, dropping rapidly. With her current physical constitution, it was difficult to maintain this state for long.
She extended her hand, and the useless God Tree crashed to the ground.
As for how the ninja villages here would develop next, that was the business of the Fourth Hokage, Kizashi Haruno, and had nothing to do with her. She opened the Crossing Moon Bridge and returned to the Seventh Universe.
...
Ino's move to abandon those low-tier losers like the Supreme Kais and actively cozy up to the Grand Minister's faction finally gained a little bit of recognition.
As a big shot who needed to keep Grand Zeno company while playing, and also handle the various official duties of the multiverse, the Grand Minister was actually very busy. His clones would go fishing to relax when they had nothing to do, but the main body was busy as hell.
Handling official duties and playing with Grand Zeno were two things that sometimes couldn't be balanced. So, the big shot made a 'GodPad' himself to receive signals from the entire multiverse. Grand Zeno could hold it and play, checking out what the multiverse under his jurisdiction actually looked like when he was bored, just for some amusement.
Fearing the machines might get damaged, the big shot made a whole pile of GodPads. Since they were just taking up space at home, he gave one to each of his children. Ino had mentioned it to Whis a few times, and Whis felt she indeed needed to understand information about the other universes. At the very least, she should see to what extent others had built their civilized universes, study hard, and learn from their strong points to offset her weaknesses. So, he immediately asked for one for her.
GodPad! Just listen to that name!
What information does the GodPad receive? Within the multiverse, there is something called "GodTube."
Everyone can put some videos on there to share with intelligent lifeforms across the multiverse.
"Report to Grand Zeno, our yield per mu has exceeded ten thousand jin!"
"Hehe, only ten thousand jin? Our yield per mu reached thirty-six thousand jin long ago!"
"Are you joking?"
"You were the one joking first!"
All sorts of true and false boasting and flame wars were contained therein.
Of course, not all information could be seen. Grand Zeno was still a child and couldn't be exposed to dark things; this was the consensus of the many deities within the multiverse.
