Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

In the deserted village.

Qingming's thoughts raced, and after a long time, he collected his mind.

Then, he clenched his palm and crushed the ball of wind escape chakra into pieces.

It is true that he planned to create a wind escape flying ninjutsu, but not now.

There are two reasons. One is that the time is not right.

For now, it is most important to get the Kusanagi sword in the hands of the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village. Other things can be postponed.

Second, his foundation is not enough now.

Don't think that he seems to have "created" an A-level ninjutsu and an S-level ninjutsu.

But whether it is "Rasengan" or "Wind escape·Rasenshuriken", they all have sufficient theoretical foundations.

Strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as his own creation.

And it is not a simple thing to create a ninjutsu by yourself. Even a genius like Minato Namikaze spent three years to create a "Rasengan".

Even so, there is still Jiraiya's help.

If he had done it alone, it might have taken even longer.

This shows how difficult it is to conceive and create a ninjutsu from scratch.

Qingming is probably better than them because he has the help of the proficiency panel.

By then, he can completely create a prototype of a ninjutsu. As long as it can be recognized by the panel, he can use the power of proficiency to continuously improve it and finally come up with it.

It can be said that this saves a lot of trouble.

Nevertheless, it is not a one-day job to create a ninjutsu from scratch.

Therefore, there is no need to think about it now.

Suppressing this thought temporarily, Qingming gathered his mind and began to close his eyes and rest quietly.

·······

Time passed by minute by minute.

In a blink of an eye, the sun was setting.

Seeing that dusk was approaching, Qingming no longer lingered. After identifying the direction, he rushed to the hiding place of the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village.

A few hours later.

As night fell, Qingming arrived outside a small town in a dusty state.

From a distance, it can be seen that this town is quite peaceful, and smoke rises from almost every house, as if it has not been affected by the war.

Qingming did not enter rashly. Since this place could be discovered by the group of ninja cats, it might also enter the vision of other ninja villages.

He did not want to cause trouble, so it was better not to be discovered.

With this thought, Qingming made seals with both hands, performed the "transformation technique", turned into an ordinary person, and walked into the town.

Without wasting time wandering around, he had a clear goal and walked straight to a small courtyard in the town.

When he came to the small courtyard, Qingming's footsteps suddenly stopped.

There was no other reason. In his perception, several ninjas seemed to be monitoring this place.

Qingming's thoughts were flying, and finally he approached the small courtyard with this ordinary appearance.

Bang bang bang~

He stretched out his right hand and knocked on the door.

However, no one answered.

Qingming stopped for a moment, let go of his perception, and did not sense the breath of living people inside.

"Not here?"

Muttering, Qingming jumped onto the wall without any hesitation.

Instantly, Qingming felt that the gazes on him became more intense.

Obviously, his unusual behavior alarmed the people who were secretly monitoring here.

However, in his perception, these people did not come over.

After confirming this, Qingming secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "The bet is right, very good!"

Before, he guessed that since these people chose to monitor, they would not act rashly. Now it seems that it is true!

The other party probably thought that even if he had other purposes, it would not be easy to take down the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village.

After all, he is the leader of a village, even if it is just a small ninja village, the strength should not be underestimated.

In this way, they can completely wait and see.

Unfortunately, they would never have thought that Qingming chose to act this way because he had the confidence to take down the other party in an instant.

And this is also the point of Qingming's bet.

Now it seems that he bet right, and those people did not make a move.

In this case, he can act according to the plan.

With this thought, Qingming jumped down the wall, searched a little, and entered the master bedroom.

This is a very ordinary house. Qingming looked around and nodded after confirming that the bed and mattress had traces of recent use.

This means that the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village still lives here, but just went out temporarily.

Carefully avoiding several traps, Qingming restrained his breath and hid himself in the corner of the house, quietly waiting for the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village to appear.

·······

The night gradually deepened.

Creak~

I don’t know how long it has been.

Suddenly, the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open came.

Immediately, Qingming raised his full spirits and listened quietly to the movement outside.

First, there was the sound of a person walking, then the sound of him washing, and finally he didn’t know what he was doing. He stood in the courtyard for a long time before returning to the bedroom.

"Who is it?"

As soon as he entered the bedroom, the chief of the Takumi Ninja Village noticed something was wrong, and while shouting, he threw several shurikens.

A black shadow rushed out from the corner of the room and easily avoided the attack of the shuriken.

The chief of the Takumi Ninja Village looked closely and exclaimed: "Sharingan?! Uchiha ninja?"

Without time to think, he pulled out the long sword from his waist, injected a stream of chakra into it, and made it emit a sharp breath.

Then, he swung the sword and attacked the neck of the visitor.

The visitor reacted quickly and immediately avoided the attack.

However, relying on the sharpness of the long sword in his hand, the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village did not retreat and immediately launched a continuous attack.

For a while, the visitor could only passively dodge.

However, if you defend for a long time, you will lose. After dodging more than a dozen swords in succession, the visitor was unable to react and was instantly beheaded by the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village.

Seeing this, the leader of the Artisan Ninja Village was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly he felt a flash in front of his eyes. He was still standing there, with nothing in his hands, and the long sword was still inserted in the scabbard at his waist.

It seemed that everything just now was just an illusion!

The only difference from just now was that there was an Uchiha ninja standing in front of him.

The leader of the Takumi Village knew that he was under the illusion the moment he saw the other's Sharingan.

And everything just now was indeed his illusion.

"You"

The leader of the Takumi Village opened his mouth and was about to say something, but suddenly he felt a pain in his heart. He looked down and saw a kunai stuck in his chest.

Puff~

A mouthful of blood spurted out of the mouth of the Takumi Village leader.

Qingming slightly turned his body to avoid the blood.

Takumi Village covered his chest, staggered back two steps, and finally fell at the door.

Soon, the other party lost his life.

Qingming stepped forward and untied the scabbard from his waist.

Squeak~

Qingming pulled out the long sword, and a sharp breath came. A little chakra was injected, and there was a silky feeling.

Qing Ming stroked the long sword and sighed in his heart: "It is worthy of being a rare weapon in the entire ninja world. The efficiency of chakra transmission is really extraordinary!"
