Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

And just when Namikaze Minato was hesitating whether to fulfill his duty as a Konoha ninja and bring Yugao back to the village, or to follow his heart and let him go, a subtle space fluctuation came.

In an instant, Qing Ming cast his gaze over from the sky.

The next moment, as a cloud of chakra smoke exploded, Yugao, who was still unconscious before, lying on the ground, disappeared.

Without thinking, Qing Ming could guess that this was the work of Kirigakure Village.

Thinking about it, despite this raid, Kirigakure Village showed a very determined attitude, as if they would not give up until a big disturbance was caused.

However, as the only tailed beasts left in the village, they definitely have backup options.

Now, this backhand is taking effect.

As for what can cause this kind of effect, apart from the 'psychic technique' and the 'counter-psychic technique', Qing Meditation has no other possibilities.

Moreover, the subtle spatial fluctuation just now is proof.

only

Qingming looked at Namikaze Minato with a faint look.

Even in the sky, he could detect the space fluctuations in advance. Qingming didn't believe that Namikaze Minato, who had practiced the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' to an extremely deep level, wouldn't be able to feel it.

And with the distance between him and Yu Gao, coupled with his reaction speed, Qing Ming was convinced that the other party could definitely stop Yu Gao before he was channeled away.

After all, if he remembered correctly, the 'Flying Thunder God Guide Mine' he knew had the effect of sealing and tearing apart space.

In this way, it is impossible not to stop the opponent.

To take a step back, even if its reaction is slow and it is too late to stop it with a spell, it should not be a problem to take the opportunity to leave a mark of the Flying Thunder God on its body.

However, Namikaze Minato actually stood there, doing nothing and letting the other party leave.

It has to be said that this approach is not in line with the status of Konoha ninja. Even Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has a better temper, will probably be dissatisfied after knowing this matter.

As for the radicals, they probably wanted to kill Namikaze Minato.

And this is not uncontrollable.

Remember back then, wasn't Hatake Sakukun, the famous Konoha White Fang, driven to death by public opinion just because of a mission?

Now, as long as they blame all subsequent deaths and injuries on the Kirigakure battlefield on Namikaze Minato and stir up the emotions of the families of the deceased, they can easily create a scene where Namikaze Minato is despised by thousands of people.

By then, Namikaze Minato would be forced to death if his mental quality was low.

Even if he can't be forced to death, his reputation can plummet.

Of course, the premise of all this is that this matter is known to the village.

Unfortunately, Qingming was not interested in participating in this, and he didn't care at all whether he captured the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki alive.

Therefore, in theory, as long as Namikaze Minato didn't tell anyone, no one would know about it.

After looking at Namikaze Minato for a few seconds, Qingmei withdrew his gaze, then flapped his wings and flew straight in the direction he came from.

Looking at Qingming's leaving figure, Namikaze Minato breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there was no communication between the two parties, Namikaze Minato knew that Qingmei would keep it secret.

And this can save him a lot of trouble.

Although he didn't mind the village knowing about this matter, if it could be concealed, he still hoped that it could be concealed.

This is not because he cares about reputation or other people's opinions, but he must ensure that he will not be affected by this matter.

Only in this way can he have a greater chance of taking the position of the Fourth Hokage.

Similarly, his fight for the position of Hokage is not due to greed for power, but only by sitting in that position can he change some things.

As the 'child of destiny' hand-picked by Teacher Jiraiya, Namikaze Minato has his own ideals and ambitions.

He has never been a pedantic person.

On the contrary, he is very smart and knows what he wants and what he must pay.

Watching Qingming's figure disappear into the sky, Namikaze Minato stood there for a while.

Finally, he made up his mind that he would participate in the entire war between the village and Kirigakure, using his own hands to personally save those who might die because of his decision.

This is Namikaze Minato. He may make a choice that is not good for the village, but he will bear the price behind this choice and work hard for it.

Qingmei didn't know Namikaze Minato's thoughts and decisions, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Some people naturally like to put burdens on themselves and can burn themselves for the ideals in their hearts.

Qing Ming will not become such a person, but this does not prevent him from paying respect to these people.

After all, history needs these people to lead.

Maybe in the future, if he meets the other party again, he will be able to help him a little bit.

As for now.

It's better to focus on your own affairs first.

······

It didn't take long for Qing Ming to fly back to the previous battlefield.

At this time, the fighting here is still continuing.

Just when Qingming was thinking about whether to participate in it, the fog ninja seemed to have received some news and began to gather near each jounin.

Eventually, several detachments were formed and fled in various directions.

The Konoha ninjas in the field noticed this scene, but they did not pursue them all.

Because of the previous battle, everyone was exhausted. Even after Uchiha Shisui and others joined in, the situation improved a lot, but the condition was still very poor.

Therefore, after some discussion, Uchiha Shisui and others decided to send only a small force to monitor and pursue.

This was done to prevent these Mist Ninjas from staying behind the front and causing trouble, and to harass them, so as to buy time for other troops coming to support them, and see if they could be caught in one fell swoop.

That's right, this time, it was not only Qingming and others who supported the Red Tree Stronghold. They were just one step ahead, and there were several more troops coming behind.

Although the main task of these people was to rebuild the Red Tree Stronghold and then garrison here, it was still possible to change direction on the way and try to surround these escaped Mist Ninjas.

Qingming, as the only person in the team who could fly, naturally had to participate.

However, in order not to waste time, Qingming found an opportunity to perform the "Shadow Clone Technique", split a shadow clone, let it perform the surveillance task, and then rushed to practice.

Now, he needs to digest the chakra in his body as soon as possible.

Only in this way can he catch the shadow clone he had split before, and after releasing the "Shadow Clone Technique", return to the chakra of the original body.

Although he could choose not to take back these shadow clones and let them use up all the chakra in their bodies at once, it would be a big loss.

Only by timely converting their practice experience and memory into the proficiency of the corresponding skills, and relying on the "once-certified, forever-certified" feature of the proficiency panel, can he maintain the most efficient progress.

Otherwise, a lot of chakra will inevitably be wasted.

Although these chakras are easier to come by, Qingming is still unwilling to waste them.

In this way, it is inevitable to seize the time to practice.
