Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Four days passed in a flash.

It was late July.

This afternoon.

It was still in the forest.

Qingming sat cross-legged on a boulder, constantly performing the ‘Palm Fairy Technique’ to strengthen his body.

Unfortunately, the effect was minimal.

According to his estimate, after the ‘Physique’ attribute was raised to 18 points, it would take at least one and a half months to improve and transform.

If there was any delay in the middle, this time would be extended, unless his ‘Palm Fairy Technique’ could be further upgraded from lv8 to lv9.

Otherwise, he could only grind slowly.

With this thought, Qingming opened the proficiency panel and looked at the lv8 (15234/50000) ‘Palm Fairy Technique’ on it, and immediately gave up this naive idea.

It was impossible for his ‘Palm Fairy Technique’ to upgrade in just one and a half months.

“Well, let’s take it slow!”

With a sigh, Qingming planned to continue his practice.

However, at this moment, a stream of chakra returned to his body.

At the same time, a period of training experience and memory also emerged in his mind.

Qingming immediately closed his eyes, silently digested these experiences and memories, and transformed them into the proficiency of the corresponding skills bit by bit.

After a moment, Qingming opened his eyes, and a touch of joy flashed in his eyes.

Then, he raised his hands, completed the seal in an instant, and performed the ninjutsu - Water Style·Mist Hidden Technique!

A large amount of chakra poured out of his body, and in the blink of an eye, the area of ​​100 meters became a vast expanse of white.

Then, the white mist quickly disappeared, and the surrounding scenery reappeared, as if nothing had happened just now.

This scene of free and easy release fully demonstrated that Qingming had a deep attainment in this technique.

In fact, it was true.

With the transformation of the training experience and memory just now into proficiency, his 'Water Style·Mist Hidden Technique' successfully advanced to level 5 (0/0), reaching the state of perfection.

This made Qingming sweep away the depression in his heart just now, and he was full of hope for the future again.

However, after the excitement, Qingming began to think about the allocation of chakra.

Now that the "Water Style·Mist Hidden Technique" has been completed, the saved 5,000 chakra points must be redistributed.

Qingming's eyes swept over several skills on the panel and finally fixed on the "Water Style·Big Same Bullet Technique".

As an A-level ninjutsu with infinite uses, he hopes that it can be put into actual combat faster and integrated into his tactical system.

Although it is now at level 4 and there is no big problem in using it, it is only against opponents with weaker strength.

If facing opponents of the same level, it is difficult to achieve too good results unless it is unexpected.

Therefore, it is necessary to increase investment appropriately and speed up its growth.

With the investment of 5,000 chakra points, the proficiency that can be obtained every day will be increased from the original 80 points to 110 points.

In this way, it can be promoted faster.

"Well, let's do it!"

Having made a decision, Qingming no longer thought about it, quickly gathered his mind, closed the panel, and then began his own practice.

······

Time passed by minute by minute.

About an hour later.

Just as Qingming was immersed in cultivation, a burst of hurried footsteps came from far away.

Qingming's ears moved slightly, and then he opened his eyes.

After a few breaths, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

Qingming looked at the person who came and said, "What happened, Tiehuo?"

That's right, the person who came was none other than Uchiha Tiehuo.

In the past period of time, he almost handed over all his affairs to the other party.

According to the time calculation, the other party should have just finished the task and rested accurately. Why did he think of coming to him?

And, in such a hurry?

Hearing Qingming's inquiry, Uchiha Tiehuo took a deep breath and said, "Qingming, the Hidden Mist Village has taken action."

Hearing this, Qingming's pupils shrank slightly, and he immediately sat up straight and said, "Tell me in detail."

It's not that he is so cautious, but this matter is too important.

Although the Hidden Mist Village has not made any radical moves in the past month, Qingming knows that it was just a moment of calm before the storm.

As the Third Ninja World War gradually draws to a close, the struggle between the various forces will inevitably enter a white-hot state.

Before, the Hidden Mist Village had been slow to act, and it was obvious that it was preparing for this.

Now, the other party has suddenly taken action, so he naturally has to treat it with caution.

"Just this afternoon, when the third team went out to perform patrol missions, they saw a Mist Ninja team wandering near the coast from a distance. After the two sides met, the other party quickly withdrew."

"After I came back, I learned about this situation and immediately asked other teams about their experiences. I found that since noon, patrol teams have seen traces of Mist Ninjas one after another."

"They are widely distributed throughout the entire defense line, attacking everywhere, and seem to be exploring the loopholes in our defense."

Hearing Qingming's inquiry, Uchiha Tiehuo immediately told the situation encountered by the third team and the results of his investigation in detail.

Finally, he said with a slightly sad face: "Qingming, the situation seems a little bad. I feel that the Mist Ninja is going to hold back a big wave."

"Yeah."

Qingming nodded, agreeing with his idea.

He even guessed that the Mist Village had already negotiated a price with the Sand Village and signed a peace agreement.

Next, the other side is likely to mobilize all its manpower to launch a full-scale attack on them.

On the contrary, Konoha does not seem to be prepared to get too deeply entangled with the other side, at least not to go to war with them for the time being.

Judging from the recent rumors, Qingming estimated that Konoha was planning to fight with the Sand Village first to completely decide the winner.

Then, concentrate its forces to deal with the Rock Village and the Mist Village.

Judging from the memory of the previous life, even if Konoha was not at its peak in this battle, it was a small victory. The Sand Village eventually took the lead in signing a peace agreement with Konoha.

Even later, in order to ensure the smooth end of the war, when the radical faction of the Rock Village attempted to disrupt the peace talks between the two sides, they took the initiative to come forward and destroy the other party's conspiracy.

Although this was based on the interests of the Sand Village, the fact that the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, took the initiative to come forward has already indirectly shown that Konoha has a dominant position in the peace agreement signed with the Sand Village.

Of course, this also laid the groundwork for the Sand Village to participate in Orochimaru's Konoha collapse plan later.

All kinds of thoughts kept flashing through his mind, Qingming shook his head suddenly, and threw all the things that had not happened yet behind his mind.

Now, he just wanted to know when the Kirigakure would launch an attack, and how long his peaceful days would last.

Just as he was thinking about this, another person came here, a messenger Chunin, asking him and Uchiha Tiehuo to go to the headquarters for a meeting immediately.

"Well, don't think about it this time, the peaceful days are over."

Qingming was speechless, so he had to rush to the headquarters with Uchiha Tiehuo.
