Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"Uh, is this even possible?"

"Yes, Orochimaru succeeded. I've been there to visit. It was Naruto who needed it, so I specifically asked him to help make it."

"I see. Wait a minute, Naruto can create life himself, so why go through all this trouble?"

“I asked him about it. He wanted to deceive the Otsutsuki and put something called a wedge in the homunculus. I don’t know the specifics, but it seems to be a copy.”

"wedge?"

"Well, that's not the point. The point is artificial humans. I think Orochimaru's technology in this area is still immature, and there are many problems that he hasn't solved yet."

"what do you mean?"

"Orochimaru has other projects to research and advance. The experiments on artificial humans have been stopped. The current technology is sufficient to meet Naruto's requirements."

"I want to secretly take over this research and continue to advance the artificial human project, striving to create truly perfect, vibrant life."

"Hmm, I still don't quite understand what you're trying to say. Could you explain it more clearly?"

"Isn't that clear enough? My intention is very simple. For example, my genes, combined with Naruto's genes, are fused together to create life."

"What do you think this represents?"

"!!"

"That's right, it's equivalent to my and Naruto's child."

The above is a conversation between Sakura and Ino that took place a week ago, after that dinner party, when they said goodbye to Hinata and Tenten.

"I don't really want kids that much, hmm," Ino said, her mind wandering as she lost in thought.

In the afternoon, after finishing her teaching duties, Ino said goodbye to her students and went home to rest for two hours. During that time, she logged into "Kizuna" and played for a while.

After nightfall and dinner, we continued playing "Kizuna" (a game title).

The night is getting darker.

It was past midnight when Ino was wide awake, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, her mind constantly on what Sakura had said.

Why did Sakura tell her this? It's simple: if Sakura were to research it herself, it would take a very long time, and Sakura didn't want to wait that long.

However, if Ino were involved and cooperated, the process would be greatly shortened.

The reason for this is that Ino's Spirit Transformation Technique and Mind Transfer Technique, these two ninjutsu, are the perfect combination for experimental purposes.

It can possess the test subject and clearly grasp all the details and changes.

In addition, Ino's Byakugan, insight, and X-ray vision are all very useful for experiments.

"Let's go take a look." Ino sat up, scratched her head, and sighed.

She eventually fell for him. Even though she knew there was no possibility of taking things further with Naruto, she couldn't give him up and find another relationship.

She can only follow the same path as Sakura, becoming an artificial human. If she can't have Naruto, having a child with Naruto would be some consolation.

With that in mind, Ino quickly changed her clothes, opened the Yomotsu Hirasaka door, stepped inside, and arrived at Sakura's laboratory.

Without Ino's help, Sakura doesn't have the ability to travel to other dimensions and can only stay on Earth, building a laboratory.

Ino happened to know that location.

"They're later than I expected." Hearing the commotion behind her and sensing Ino's chakra and life force reactions, Sakura didn't turn around. She kept her head down and continued doing what she was doing, saying casually.

"I don't understand you. What's there to hesitate about? Are you being overly sentimental? If you want it, just do it. You've wasted several days for nothing."

"Give me some time to process this. It would be strange if I agreed right away," Ino said helplessly.

“That’s my progress chart. Have your clone take a look so you can understand it,” Sakura said.

"As for you, you used the Spirit Transformation Technique to possess Subject Seven, who is the closest to perfection so far."

Hearing Sakura say this, Ino didn't say much. She put her hands together, formed a hand seal, and created a shadow clone.

The shadow clone picked up the progress chart on the table and started looking at it.

Ino herself was astral, wandering in front of the various test subjects.

By identifying the number, they immediately crawled inside and used their family's secret technique, Mind Turn, to completely control the test subject.

"Such a small body, it's so cramped and uncomfortable." Ino opened her mouth uncomfortably, wanting to speak, but no words came out.

It can only make "ah ah ah" sounds.

"Did your vocal cords not develop properly?" Sakura quickly put down what she was doing, came closer, and examined him closely.
