Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

One day later.

The rest time is over.

Qingming began to lead the team to perform tasks under the arrangement of Omura Yuito.

Fengliu Town is located at the foot of the mountain. The west and north are less than 200 meters away from the mountain, which is an extremely important strategic highland. The south is the plain leading to the rear base camp, and the east is stationed with a large force of rock ninjas.

Therefore, they have three main field missions. The first is to meet the support troops from the south.

The second is to monitor the movements of the large force of rock ninjas in the east to ensure that they get the news as soon as they launch an attack.

As for the third one.

It is to fight with the small force of rock ninjas in the mountains in the west and north to prevent the other party from seizing these two strategic highlands.

In order to ensure that enough chakra can be obtained every day, Qingming did not hesitate and directly asked to perform the third task.

And Omura Yuito did not have any objections and agreed directly.

It’s not that he is easy to talk to, but in the past day, he carefully learned about the relevant situation of Qingming and others along the way.

Knowing that Qingming's combat power far exceeds that of ordinary jonin, their group's successful escape here is inseparable from Qingming's extraordinary combat power.

Therefore, after hearing Qingming's request, he agreed immediately without any hesitation.

So, Qingming naturally became a member of the garrison in the western mountain stronghold, and he also encountered a small infiltration force of rock ninjas as he wished.

There is no need to say much about the battle process. With Qingming's current strength, it would be difficult for him to overturn even if he wanted to.

In this way, he successfully obtained the chakra he wanted.

With sufficient chakra, Qingming no longer wasted time, and almost every minute and every second was using Yang escape chakra to strengthen his body.

Fortunately, practicing the "palm fairy technique" does not require any quiet environment, so he can also strengthen himself during the execution of the mission.

In this way, although it seems a bit strange, Qingming doesn't care.

Anyway, after this war, there are not many people who can survive, so there is no need to worry about his weird behavior spreading.

Moreover, even if it spreads, it doesn't matter. The practice of ninjas is relatively private, and no one will ask in person without knowing the good and the bad.

As for the secret investigation

After he opens the Mangekyō Sharingan, his strength will soar directly to the level of Kage. Who will care about the little details at that time?

After all, the ninja world is still about fists. As long as his strength is enough, he is not afraid of others having bad intentions.

It is precisely because of these considerations that Qingming almost did not avoid his fellow team members when he practiced the "Palm Immortal Technique" to strengthen his body.

Only when he absorbed chakra would he be a little more concealed.

After all, chakra is the most fundamental thing for every ninja.

Once someone knows that he can absorb chakra, and it is so efficient to squeeze the body and forcibly extract chakra.

Even if he doesn't say it, he will be instinctively on guard in his heart.

Qingming doesn't want to cause trouble, so it's better not to let them know.

Fortunately, his "Chakra Absorption Technique" has already reached level 5, which can extract a thousand points of chakra from the target per second. It only takes seven or eight seconds to drain the chakra of a Chunin.

So, it's not too troublesome to cover it up.

In this way, Qingming solved many difficulties and began to strengthen his body according to the plan.

······

In a blink of an eye, time came to seven days later.

That afternoon.

When Qingming once again performed the "Palm Immortal Technique", the Yang escape chakra in his body began to wander and strengthen his body cells, an indescribable force suddenly erupted.

It was like a volcano that had been accumulated for a long time suddenly erupted, rushing through his body, and began to push his body and strengthen rapidly.

Qingming's face changed slightly, and he suddenly stopped.

On the side, several Konoha Chunin saw this and thought he had discovered something, and hurriedly alerted.

After a while, someone carefully said: "Captain, what happened?"

Qingming heard this, endured the discomfort of his body, waved his hand, and said: "Stop here first, pay attention to the alert!"

After that, regardless of what several subordinates thought, he flashed and came to a huge rock next to him, sat cross-legged, and slowly closed his eyes.

In an instant, everything around him seemed to be far away from Qingming.

He began to focus most of his mind on his body, and began to sort out the power to make it softer.

Qingming really didn't expect that this evolution would be so violent, which caught him off guard.

Fortunately, this power was transformed from his foundation, otherwise it might hurt him if it rushed around in his body.

As his mind joined in and began to sort it out, the changes were no longer so drastic.

Qingming also felt the comfort he had felt when his body evolved before.

·······

Time passed by minute by minute.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.

Just when several Konoha Chunin outside were getting impatient, Qingming finally opened his eyes.

"Captain?"

Seeing this, several people hurriedly spoke up, wanting to ask something, but were interrupted by Qingming raising his hand.

Then, he looked towards a certain place in the forest and said calmly: "Since you are here, why don't you show up?"

"What?"

Several Chunin subordinates were shocked when they heard this, and quickly took out their kunai and looked in the direction where Qingming was pointing.

However, there was no movement over there.

Several subordinates could not help but have some doubts about Qingming's judgment. Although they were concerned about Qingming just now, their vigilance did not decrease at all.

If the enemy had touched here, they should have noticed something.

But in fact, they found nothing.

Just when they were confused, a burst of applause came.

"Pa pa pa~"

Then, there was a creepy laugh and a series of footsteps.

"Hahaha~, worthy of being the Ghost Sword Qingming, the perception is really sharp!"

As he spoke, a figure appeared in the field.

His body was shriveled and his clothes were tattered. Although he was smiling, the expression on his face was particularly strange, just like a corpse.

That's right, it was a corpse.

Not only him, but also the few people behind him, there was no vitality on them.

It was precisely because of this that several Chunin under Qingming did not notice the approach of these people.

Only Qingming sensed a little mental fluctuation, and then discovered the abnormality.

Looking at these people, Qingming frowned and asked: "Who are you? Why are you looking for me?"

That's right, these people are not Iwagakure ninjas. They don't have the logo of Iwagakure Village on them, or in other words, they don't have the logo of any ninja village.

So, it is highly likely that they are not ninjas from the major ninja villages.

Considering the behavior style of Ohnoki and Iwagakure Village, Qingming already had some guesses in his mind.

Just when he was thinking about it, the shriveled figure spoke.

"Hehe, who are we? Hahaha~, it doesn't matter if I tell you, we are the great ghost corpse clan, hahaha~"

The first half of the sentence was said by the man alone, but the second half was said in unison with the people behind him.

Even the laughter was emitted at the same time.

In an instant, the field was full of creepy laughter.

Suddenly, Qingming seemed to have noticed something and shouted: "Be careful, block your hearing immediately, this is an illusion!"

"What?"

Several Konoha Chunins' expressions changed drastically when they heard this, and they realized that they had smiled unconsciously.

They were horrified and quickly blocked their ears.
