A Wishing Konoha Ninja

After the last street fight with two chuunin, Kazumi Shinobi finally had a general understanding of his own strength.

If the state is fully activated, no one among the genin should be his opponent. Even the chunin who is not good at some ninjutsu is not impossible to defeat, but it will be difficult against the chunin who is good at both ninjutsu and illusion.

When it comes to ninjutsu, Kazumi Shinobu thinks of his continuous practice of converting mind energy into chakra.

Recently, he finally felt that he was almost successful. It was estimated that he would be able to initially realize the chakra transformation of his mind energy before the exam.

By then, Kazami Ninja should be able to use ninjutsu and illusions normally like other ninjas.

If nothing else, his strength will be further enhanced.

Thinking of this, Kazumi Shinobu suddenly felt that the rugged path in the forest was no longer difficult to walk, and even his steps seemed to become much lighter.

As for why Kazami Shinobi is in the forest of Konoha, there is of course a reason.

It is said that recently in the streets and alleys of Konoha, a rumor has been circulating at an alarming speed, saying that someone saw a legendary creature, the brown-haired rat, in the forest near Konoha.

Legend has it that this kind of brown-haired rat is 3 meters tall when it reaches adulthood and has a fierce temperament. It is a very dangerous creature.

However, so far, no one in Konoha Village has successfully captured this brown-haired rat, and no one knows whether the legend is true or false.

So after it was rumored that someone saw a brown rat in the forest, a wealthy businessman even offered a high price to buy a living brown rat. Soon there was a wave of hunting for brown rats in the village.

Yes, Kazami Shinobu was also affected by this wave and joined this mouse-catching group.

He had never thought about catching the brown-haired rat and selling it to a wealthy businessman to make a fortune.

But it is obvious that catching brown rats mainly depends on luck rather than strength.

Although the brave and talented Kazumi Shinobu searched the forest several times, he could not find even a single brown hair on the body of the brown-haired rat. He saw a lot of white hair like a rabbit.

If he still couldn't find the brown-haired rat this time, forget it. He probably wouldn't gain anything if he came a few more times. Kazami Shinobi decided to finish this trip and stop wasting time looking for the brown-haired rat in the forest.

Just thinking about it while walking like this, Kazumi Shinobu walked further and further unconsciously, slowly heading deeper into the forest.

When Kazumi Shinobu discovered it, he had already reached the depths of the forest. He was surrounded by old trees, but for some reason there was silence all around. There was no movement of other animals at all.

Suddenly, a roar and a violent sound of breaking through the air came from behind. Feng Jianren felt a chill on his back and rolled forward without thinking.

"boom"

Kazami Shinobu looked back, "What kind of monster is this?"

I saw a white-haired monster that looked like a mouse and a gorilla standing behind Feng Jian's original position, one arm dug deeply into the soil, and gritted its teeth as it looked at Feng Jian.

Although he didn't want to engage in a unnecessary battle, this monster didn't seem to want to let him go easily. Kazami Shinobu could only deal with it first.

Before Feng Jian could make a move, the white-haired monster rushed towards him fiercely.

Kazami Shinobu first jumped back onto a slanted tree trunk, using the surrounding tree trunks as a springboard. After several quick jumps, he had reached the top of the back of the white-haired monster that jumped into the air.

"Goodbye, white-haired monster"

Kazami Shinobu hit the monster hard on the back of the head with a straight punch.

"Boom", the entire body of the white-haired monster smashed into a big hole on the ground.

Discover the source of energy and start absorbing it

10xp

"I go"

The long-lost Holy Grail suddenly appeared, and even Kazumi Shinobu was shocked.

"I asked the Holy Grail boss, can you give me a reminder before he shows up next time, for example, can you add a reminder sound?" The kind-hearted Kazami Shinobu couldn't help but put forward an opinion to the Holy Grail, but he did not receive any response.

Well, I have long been accustomed to such a cold and cold Holy Grail boss, so Kazumi Shinobu could only comfort himself like this.

Let’s get back to the point, did the Holy Grail just indicate that it absorbed energy?

"Holy Grail Boss, show the remaining energy."

"Ding"

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly appeared in Feng Jianren's mind, making him dizzy and tinnitus.

"Boss of the Holy Grail, I'm sorry, please let me go."

There is no way, the Holy Grail boss is so willful.

Energy: 10xp

Looking at the sudden increase in the energy of the Holy Grail, it is better not to complain about why xp is used as the unit. The most important thing is to find out the source of the energy. Kazumi Shinobu touched his chin while thinking about it.

The increase in energy is obviously because I solved this white-haired monster. In this case, one of the ways for the Holy Grail to replenish energy is to steal the energy of other living beings, which is a bit like gaining experience from fighting monsters.

It looks like I'm going to do some more experiments today.

On this day, the animals in the forest near Konoha all suffered serious crimes. In order to test the specific method of replenishing energy, Kazami Shinobi extended his sinful hand to them.

After struggling like this for an afternoon, Kazumi Shinobu finally figured out how to replenish energy.

First of all, not all creatures can provide energy. Only strong creatures can, and the stronger the creatures, the more energy they provide.

Then, only enemies that Kazumi Shinobu personally solves can be captured. As for what method is considered personal, it needs to be slowly verified in future use.

Seeing that the energy value increased by less than 30xp after working hard all afternoon, Kazumi Shinobu had to sigh, Damn it, life is too difficult.

After running around for a day, Kazumi Shinobu, who was already feeling exhausted, immediately decided to go back to the village.

As for the legendary brown-haired rat, he didn't want to look for it anymore. Whoever wanted to look for it should go find it on his own.

Deep underground in Konoha

Orochimaru was walking alone in the dim passage. At the end of the passage, only darkness could be seen, as if it was like a monster's open mouth, which could swallow people up at any time.

After a while, Orochimaru reached the end of the passage.

He walked calmly into the darkness, which turned out to be a room full of books and scrolls. At this time, a figure stood quietly in the center of the room.

This is a middle-aged man in his 40s. His right eye is wrapped in layers of bandages and there are two cross-shaped scars on his chin.

It was Danzo Shimura, the Konoha elder and leader of the Roots.

Orochimaru walked into the room and asked in a frivolous tone: "I don't know, why did Danzo-sama come to see me?"

Danzo said in a deep voice with no expression on his face: "How did you think about your last proposal? My patience is limited."

"Hmph, that's why so many people have been wandering around in the forest recently. If someone finds something they shouldn't find, I can only take action to deal with it and then put the blame on it, right?"

A sneer appeared on Orochimaru's lips, and he told the shocking truth.

Although the other party made a shocking guess, Danzo still said with a serious look: "Humph, stop talking nonsense, whether you want to cooperate with me or not, if you wait for me to take action, it will not be just that simple."

"I promise you it's okay, but I hope you can give me the information on this ninjutsu."

Orochimaru's lips moved and he spoke a name in an extremely small voice.

Upon hearing Orochimaru's condition, Danzo's half-closed left eye instantly opened, emitting a frightening light, and said sternly: "You actually know this technique. It seems that I underestimate you, Orochimaru."

After closing his eyes again and thinking for a while, Danzo decisively agreed: "I can leave that technique to you, but you'd better not disappoint me."

"Hmph, I love learning history." After achieving his goal, Orochimaru let out a cold laugh with satisfaction: "Don't worry, leave it to me. I will never disappoint you, Danzo-sama."
