Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Zizi~, Qing Ming, prepare to intercept, coming to your side."

Ryousuke's voice came from the earphones.

Qing Ming pressed the headset and replied: "OK, I saw it."

On a tree branch.

Qing Ming looked at the giant wild boar charging towards him and threw a kunai.

The kunai flew through the air, like a bullet, and hit the boar's left eye quickly and accurately.

Blood fell down the kunai, causing the wild boar to roar in pain.

roar--

I have to say that these animals in the ninja world are really outrageous. Not to mention their size, they are also extremely tenacious.

Just like now, even if the eyes are pierced and the brain is damaged, the wild boar below is still alive and kicking.

"But that's it."

With a murmur, Qingming raised his right hand and ignited the detonating charm attached to the kunai.

boom--

A violent explosion sounded.

A crimson flame suddenly appeared and enveloped the entire wild boar.

The pain caused by the burning flames made the wild boar howl incessantly and hit the surrounding trees crazily. Even the big tree where Qing Ming was hiding was hit.

As a last resort, Qing Ming had no choice but to change his hiding spot.

After a few breaths, the flames gradually disappeared, and the wild boar stopped going crazy and lay directly on the ground, motionless.

Looking at the charred wild boar, Qing Ming did not approach, but took out a kunai again and threw it like an electric shot, hitting the wild boar's other eye.

Phew~

The sound of a sharp knife penetrating flesh was heard.

The wild boar suddenly stood up, howled and broke several big trees before falling to the ground again.

Seeing the wild boar's chest and abdomen gradually disappearing, Qing Ming snorted coldly: "Huh! A beast is a beast, no matter how cunning it is, it can only be that way."

Although the other party knew how to pretend to be dead, the constant heaving of his chest had easily revealed his trick.

It is naturally impossible for Qing Ming to fall into such a trap.

But now

You can be sure that the other party has hung up.

Brush~swipe~

Two figures appeared, it was Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko.

"Qing Ming, you are too wasteful."

Ryousuke looked at the wild boar's head that was blackened by the detonating talisman, and said, "Don't you know how to use the fireball technique? Why do you need to use the detonating talisman?"

Indeed, it is not cost-effective to kill such a wild boar and use a detonating talisman. Even if there is a mission reward, you will still lose money in the final reckoning.

But this saves chakra.

Although using the Fire Release and Fireball techniques can also increase his proficiency, his current focus is not on this, so he can save a little bit.

For Qing Ming, if spending a little money can make more chakra be used where it should be used, it is not a loss.

At this time, a week had passed since he met Kakashi and others.

During this week, apart from eating, sleeping, and doing tasks, he spent the rest of his time practicing.

With such hard work, the results achieved are certainly not bad.

First of all, he has cultivated all three body arts to perfection, which is lv3.

At this time, whether it is the simplest 'transformation technique' or the most difficult 'substitute technique', he can complete it within one second.

What is this concept?

Many chuunin are not as proficient in these three ninjutsu as he is.

Of course, that's all.

After all, it is a basic ninjutsu, and the learning difficulty is only level E. As long as a chuunin uses some effort, it is not too difficult to practice it to perfection.

Secondly, his 'Basic Physical Skills' has also been upgraded from lv2 to lv3.

Originally, he was looking forward to whether it could improve his physique again like lv1 to lv2.

In this way, his chakra upper limit can continue to increase.

But he was disappointed.

The 'Basic Physical Technique' was raised from lv2 to lv3. Even though it had reached a perfect state like the Three Body Technique, it could not make any changes in his physical attributes.

However, if you think about it, if physical attributes could be improved so easily, there wouldn't be so many ninjas in the ninja world who would spend their entire lives spinning around as genin.

You know, every improvement in physical fitness is a transformation for the ninja.

As long as you transform once or twice in the genin stage, you can become a chuunin, not to mention 100%, at least the amount of chakra is definitely enough.

Therefore, it is normal for his physical attributes not to increase when his 'basic physical skills' level 2 rises to level 3. At the very least, some advanced physical skills are required to achieve this.

Finally, there is the ‘art of reflecting the heart’.

In seven days, its proficiency increased by a total of 125 points, and its level changed from lv2 (260/500) to lv2 (385/500).

Thanks to this, his Sharingan awakening progress increased from (85/100) to (87/100).

Unsurprisingly, there was no further reduction in speed.

Now he is just waiting for the 'Reflecting Heart Jutsu' to be promoted to lv3. If the effect is good, maybe he can awaken the Sharingan before the end of the Chunin Exam.

Otherwise, he will go to the battlefield naked.

Yes, Qingming has received the news that their graduates will return to the battlefield together with the new chuunin.

It is precisely because of this that he attaches great importance to any bit of chakra.

Even the plan to learn the teleportation technique has been put on hold for the time being.

Next, except for the necessary consumption, he planned to use all the remaining chakra to practice the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart'.

Without the Sharingan as a trump card, he really didn't have much sense of security.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind.

Qingming looked at Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko and said: "There are many wild beasts in this forest. Our mission is very heavy. It's nothing to waste a few detonating charms."

The task they received this time was to expel all wild beasts within a ten-kilometer radius, and the task required that the number of kills should not be less than one-third of the total.

If there are so many beasts to be driven away or killed according to conventional methods, a lot of chakra will be consumed and the task time will also be lengthened.

Qing Ming didn't want to waste time and energy here, so he would rather spend a little more money and complete the task as soon as possible.

Without giving Liangsuke a chance to speak again, Qingming pulled out his kunai from the wild boar, wiped it, and said, "I'm going to Area 2. You guys, hurry up and drive the wild beasts over."

After saying that, regardless of how the two of them reacted, they left.

Watching his leaving figure, Ryousuke turned back to Mizutani Shizuko and said, "Shizuko, have you ever felt that Qingming has been a little impatient lately?"

"Um."

Mizutani Shizuko nodded after hearing this.

In fact, she had discovered this a long time ago, but she just didn't say it out loud.

"Then do you know why?"

Ryousuke asked curiously.

"Maybe it's because of the Chuunin Exams!"

Shizuko Mizutani replied.

"Chunin exam?"

Ryousuke looked puzzled and asked: "What does this have to do with us, and we won't participate?"

Hearing this, Mizutani Shizuko hesitated for a while, carefully glanced around, and after confirming that no one was around, she told the news she had received from her father.

"I heard that the village plans to let our group of people go to the battlefield with the new chunin after the chunin exams are over."

"What?"

Suddenly hearing the news, Ryousuke screamed in shock.

Although he hated performing D-level missions without any technical content, he also knew how dangerous the battlefield was, so naturally he didn't want to go to the battlefield so quickly.

"Shh!"

Mizutani Shizuko raised her right index finger, made a silent gesture, and said: "Keep your voice down, my father won't let me tell this news, so don't spread it randomly."

"profound."

Ryosuke reacted, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense."

In fact, they were worrying too much, and it would be nothing even if the news spread.

Because this matter is already a done deal.

Although the news is still only circulating among the jounin and major families, it won't be long before everyone knows it, and there is no need to keep it secret.

"Okay, Ryosuke, let's go."

The two were silent for a while, and then Mizutani Shizuko spoke.

"profound."

Hearing this, Liangsuke came to his senses, responded, and said: "Let's go."

Afterwards, the two rushed to Area 3 together.
