Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

It was night.

Fengliu Town.

In the stronghold.

Qingming completed the practice of the ‘Palm Immortal Technique’ again.

Suddenly, a sense of enlightenment emerged in his mind.

At this moment, Qingming felt that he had a deeper understanding of the ‘Palm Immortal Technique’.

This familiar feeling made Qingming know that his ‘Palm Immortal Technique’ should have been upgraded.

Then, he opened the panel and took a glance.

Sure enough, on the panel, his ‘Palm Immortal Technique’ had been upgraded from lv6 to lv7.

This was his second skill upgraded to lv7 after the ‘Reflection Heart Technique’, and its effect was directly improved by a large margin compared to lv6.

Qingming estimated that there should be few people in the ninja world who used the ‘Palm Immortal Technique’ better than him.

Now, if Qingming is asked to treat some external injuries, as long as they are not too serious, he can easily cure them.

Moreover, it will not consume too much of the target's lifespan.

You know, most medical ninjutsu, including the ‘Palm Immortal Technique’, treat injuries by stimulating the target's cell division.

However, the number of times human cells can divide is limited. Excessive stimulation will consume the lifespan of those cells and eventually affect the lifespan of the human body itself.

But after his "Palm Immortal Technique" was upgraded to level 7, this problem was improved.

It is not that the level 7 "Palm Immortal Technique" can increase the number of cell divisions.

Rather, it can consume more chakra to achieve the best healing effect after each cell division.

In this way, the number of cell divisions required to heal injuries is naturally reduced, and the loss of lifespan is naturally reduced.

And this is just the improvement of the healing effect.

In addition, the effect of strengthening the body, which he values, has also been improved.

With a thought, Qingming formed seals with both hands and performed the "Palm Immortal Technique" again.

Then, he clearly felt that the Yang escape chakra he condensed this time was much purer than before.

Qingming controlled these chakras to wander in the body, along the chakra meridians, and penetrated into various tissues and organs of the body.

Suddenly, a comfortable feeling came, and Qingming couldn't help but groan.

Three minutes later, Qingming opened his eyes.

He secretly estimated.

With such strengthening, about 8,000 times, his body should be able to accumulate enough foundation to undergo transformation.

Each time he casts the "Palm Immortal Technique", he needs 150 chakra points, and 8,000 times means 1.2 million points.

Now, he can recover 42,000 chakra points every day.

In other words, even without additional chakra supplementation, it will take less than a month for his body to complete the evolution.

By then, his "physique" attribute will increase from 13 points to 14 points, and he can try to open the Mangekyō Sharingan.

And if he can get some extra chakra, this time will be further shortened.

When he thought of this, Qingming couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and he wanted to find a few rock ninjas immediately and drain their chakra.

"Calm down! Calm down!"

Pa~pa~

Qingming patted his cheeks and forced himself to calm down.

Although the prospect of capturing Rock Ninja is very tempting, let's not talk about whether the timing is right or not. Even if he gets 1.2 million chakras right now, it will be useless.

Because he needs time to digest.

Qingming calculated that according to the frequency of once every three minutes and four hours of rest every day, it will take him at least 20 days to complete the evolution.

In this case, he consumes 60,000 chakras every day. Excluding the 42,000 points recovered by himself, he needs to replenish an additional 18,000 points.

Although this number is not small, it is not a big number.

So, there is no need for him to rush.

What's more, it won't be long before he will carry out the task of sneaking into the enemy camp. How can he have time to capture any Rock Ninja?

These things can only be postponed.

······

In a flash, another two hours passed.

Time came to the middle of the night.

Accompanied by a sharp whistle, the whole Fengliu Town came alive again.

A group of Konoha ninjas walked out of their houses with tired faces, gathered numbly, and then numbly went outside the town to fight a desperate battle with the Rock Ninjas in the dark.

This is the strategy of the Rock Ninjas!

They relied on their large numbers and took turns to attack Fengliu Town almost day and night to wear down the will of the Konoha ninjas.

Although this tactic of tiring the enemy is simple, it is very effective.

The Rock Ninjas have been using it for the past two days.

And today, Qingming is waiting for this time.

Finally, after checking his equipment and making sure that everything is with him, especially after Namikaze Minato's special kunai was not forgotten, he followed the crowd and appeared somewhere outside the town.

A moment later, three more figures came over.

These were his teammates on this trip, two special jonins who were good at lurking and assassination, and a reconnaissance ninja from the Hyuga clan.

Qingming nodded at the three people, and then went to the Rock Ninja camp in the east according to the plan.

Seeing this, the three people hurriedly followed.

······

An hour later.

Qingming and his group of four arrived not far from the Rock Ninja Camp.

With his Sharingan and the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, they avoided many dangers and traps along the way and finally arrived here safely.

Next, it depends on their performance.

Qingming carefully observed the camp not far away for a while and found that the defense of the Rock Ninja was very tight. It was basically impossible to sneak in easily.

So he made a gesture to the Hyuga clan ninja beside him, indicating that she should start looking for opportunities to sneak in.

Seeing his gesture, Hyuga Crimson nodded, then put her hands on her chest, concentrated her mind, and suddenly opened her Byakugan.

In an instant, everything in front of her was reflected in her eyes.

Hyuga Crimson began to carefully observe the distribution of the Rock Ninja's defensive forces and the route of the patrol troops, while also looking for the location of the Rock Ninja headquarters.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Soon, a quarter of an hour passed.

Hyuga Crimson was still observing the Rock Ninja camp in front of them.

The Rock Ninja patrol team passed by them several times not far away. Although they did not find them, it also made the other two in the team a little anxious.

Noticing that their breathing was a little rapid, Qingming immediately made a gesture, indicating that they should restrain their breath and keep quiet.

Seeing Qingming's gesture, the two realized that they had lost their composure, so they quickly restrained their breath and continued to wait patiently.

Another quarter of an hour later.

Just as another team of Rock Ninjas passed by not far in front of them, Hinata Feihong finally retracted her gaze and closed her Byakugan.

Seeing this, Qingming immediately cast a questioning look at her.

Seeing Qingming's gaze, Hinata Feihong nodded confidently.

Then, she gestured again, saying that she needed to rest for a few minutes.

Qingming looked at the slight sweat on her forehead and realized that the other party had opened her Byakugan for a long time and could not support it.

So, he agreed to the other party's proposal.

Later, they would need to use the other party's Byakugan to sneak into the Rock Ninja camp, so they had to let it recover.
