Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Qingming, have you really learned it?"

Furukawa didn't show anything about Qingming's answer, but Liangjie couldn't keep calm.

Although he knew that there was a certain gap between him and Qingming in learning ability, the young man's unyielding character still made him unwilling to fall behind.

Before, when Furukawa taught Qingming the instant body technique, he didn't avoid him.

So, he followed and learned it.

In the past few days, he practiced hard and finally mastered some tricks. Maybe he couldn't use it in fierce battles, but it was no problem to perform it completely in normal times.

Although this can't be regarded as having learned this technique, it is enough for Liangjie to be proud.

He thought that Qingming's progress would be similar to his, and even if he was ahead, he would only be ahead a little, but the fact was far from it.

After being a companion for several months, he had a certain understanding of Qingming's way of speaking and doing things-the other party might deliberately lower his strength, but he would never exaggerate.

In other words, Qingming's real level must be far more than that when he said he had learned it.

Therefore, Ryosuke's mood was extremely complicated, and he failed to catch up again.

For a moment, he was full of negative energy.

Qingming keenly noticed his emotional changes, and just thought about it and roughly guessed the reason.

However, he did not comfort him, because this was the fact.

Not wanting to continue to dwell on this issue, Qingming asked: "Where is Shizuko? Hasn't she come yet?"

You know, when gathering in the past, Shizuko Mizutani was the first to arrive.

And now.

Qingming looked at the time. It was almost the last time for the gathering, but the other party hadn't come yet.

This surprised Qingming.

"Did something happen?" Qingming thought.

"I don't know."

On the side, Ryosuke replied weakly.

While talking, he looked at the entrance of the village and happened to see Shizuko Mizutani who was rushing over.

So, he waved and called, "Shizuko, this way!"

Hearing his call, Shizuko Mizutani turned around quickly, and after seeing them clearly, she forced a smile and walked over quickly.

"Shizuko, why are you so late today? Is there something wrong?"

Ryosuke asked without waiting for Shizuko Mizutani to get close.

Hearing this, Shizuko Mizutani shook her head, forced a smile again, and said, "Nothing, I just got up late."

"Is that so?"

Ryosuke touched his chin and said seriously, "Then you should set an alarm clock, so you won't oversleep, just like me."

Looking at the chattering Ryosuke, Qingming didn't know whether the other party was really generous or was deliberately relieving Shizuko Mizutani's pressure.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Shizuko Mizutani came here at this time, not because she had overslept at all.

The other party's red and swollen eyes showed that she had just cried not long ago.

Considering the fact that they were about to go to the battlefield, it is not difficult to guess that this was left when they said goodbye to their families.

This also made Qingming realize that this is a real world.

Here, war is war, and death will not be taken for granted because of one or two slogans.

Ninjas are also human beings. They have their own feelings, family, friends and lives. Once they die, they will affect a large number of people.

Therefore, there are many people who fear war, but they are bound by a series of rules and concepts and can only be forced to accept it.

‘Ah! This is indeed a distorted world! ’

With a sigh, Qingming stopped thinking about it and began to wait for the team to set off.

Time passed by minute by minute.

After the team was assembled, the third generation Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, appeared in front of everyone.

After that, there was an impassioned speech.

It must be said that the other party’s words were very inflammatory. After a speech, the young middle and lower ninjas were all passionate about him and wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy immediately.

Even Mizutani Shizuko, who was in a bad mood, smiled a little after listening to the other party’s words.

Only the jonin kept a serious face throughout the whole process, and seemed to have no reaction to his words.

However, think about it, who can become a jonin? They have fought in the sea of ​​blood and corpses. Their will is so firm that it can't be shaken by a few words.

If you want to mobilize their enthusiasm, you must either use actual interests to bind them or drive them with justice. Otherwise, why would they listen to you if you are just talking nonsense?

Just because you are the Hokage?

The Hokage is not elected by everyone!

Uh.

Maybe, probably!

Qingming shook his head and stopped thinking about it. These are still far away from him for the time being, and he is unwilling to participate in these things.

In the end, the ninja world is still a world where strength is respected. As long as you have enough strength, even if you don't know anything, you can speak with your fists.

If you don't like someone, just knock him down with a punch. Why think so much?

Therefore, improving strength is the kingly way.

A few minutes later.

After the speech, the team started to set off.

Qingming roughly counted and found that there were about 30 jonins, and another 60 to 70 special jonins accompanying them.

As for the chuunins and genins, they totaled more than 300 to nearly 400 people.

Such a large team naturally couldn't move too fast.

Not to mention there were dozens of supply trucks.

Therefore, it took them two weeks to get out of the territory of the Land of Fire and enter the battlefield of the Land of Rain.

As soon as they entered the Land of Rain, they were greeted by continuous drizzle, and often they could not see the sun for three or two days.

Therefore, the team's marching speed was even slower.

Another week later.

They arrived at a canyon, crossed the canyon, and walked a few dozen miles forward to the base camp of Konoha in the Land of Rain.

Their destination was there, and these dozens of trucks of supplies were also sent there.

Qingming looked at the deep canyon in front of him, and his eyebrows jumped.

Such terrain, even he, a battlefield rookie, knew that it was very suitable for ambushes, and Qingming did not believe that those senior ninjas would not see it.

'Why go here? '

Qingming could not think of any other reason except that he had no choice.

In other words, Konoha's situation on the battlefield of the Land of Rain was far less optimistic than he imagined, otherwise such a supply channel would not be retained.

Fortunately, Konoha's senior ninjas were not idle, and they slowed down the team before entering the canyon.

At the same time, several teams were sent out to search for enemy ambushes in front and on the cliffs on both sides.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the team slowly moved forward.

Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded from the distant rock wall, and a ball of red flame could be vaguely seen rising up.

"It's a detonating tag, there's an ambush!"

Someone in the team shouted, and the crowd suddenly became panicked.

Fortunately, the senior ninja spoke in time to stop the chaos.
