Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"I lost!"

After hearing Uchiha Shisui's slightly unwilling words, Qingming withdrew the dagger placed between his neck.

To be honest, he didn't feel very happy winning this battle.

First of all, in frontal combat, he did not achieve complete suppression, which resulted in him having to frequently use ninjutsu to force the opponent to reveal his flaws.

However, this is not only slow and expensive, but also very dependent on the enemy's performance.

If the opponent this time is not Uchiha Shisui, but another experienced Uchiha ninja, maybe his method will not work.

Even if it happened again, Uchiha Shisui wouldn't reveal his flaws so easily.

In this way, the battle will inevitably drag on.

As the saying goes, good things will change if they are too late.

If he delays every battle for such a long time in the future, there is no guarantee that he will not overturn.

Therefore, the best option is to make a quick decision.

But the prerequisite for a quick battle is that one's own combat power far exceeds that of the opponent.

Qing Ming doesn't have to worry about the future. With the proficiency panel around, sooner or later his strength will be far ahead of the others.

But now, or even for a long time in the future, he will not be able to be invincible in the world.

Therefore, meeting a well-matched opponent is a high probability event.

In this case, we cannot expect a quick victory.

By then, if he wants to win, he may have to face a situation similar to today.

At that time, if he did not want to be as passive as he is today, he would have to make up for his shortcomings.

That's right, it's a shortcoming.

After today's battle, Qing Ming found that he seemed to lack the means to attack on a large scale.

Whether it is the 'Fire Release: The Art of Fireball' or the 'Fire Release: The Art of Dragon Fire', they both focus on single-target attacks.

Even the 'Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique', which is known as a group attack, can only exert its so-called group attack effect when facing people who are much weaker than yourself.

For example, when facing a ninja with similar strength like Uchiha Shisui, even if all the attacks are concentrated in one place, they may not be able to hurt the opponent, let alone a group attack.

As for his other skills...

Then there will be no group damage effect.

Therefore, strictly speaking, he does not have any means of large-scale attack.

It's pointless, that's his shortcoming.

If he had a large-scale attack ninjutsu today, Uchiha Shisui might not be able to avoid a frontal battle even if he wanted to.

Why do you need to release ninjutsu frequently in the hope that the opponent will reveal his flaws?

Thinking back to the battle scenes between the two top masters Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, which move is not aimed at changing the world?

In this case, any strategy, fighting wisdom, ninjutsu, taijutsu and illusion are just floating clouds.

Vaguely, Qing Ming realized that maybe this was the path he should take.

"In the last round, Uchiha Seimei wins!"

At this moment, the examiner's voice came from the side, interrupting Qing Ming's thinking.

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of cheers from the field.

We are still in the second half of the Third Ninja War, Konoha has not yet encountered the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and the top management headed by Danzo has not yet initiated public opinion guidance that is unfavorable to the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, most Konoha ninjas do not have much hostility towards the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, after Qing Ming won, they were not stingy with applause.

Especially those candidates, after seeing the power of the Sharingan, they couldn't help but cast envious glances.

However, in this envious gaze, Qing Ming suddenly noticed an undisguised malice.

Qing Ming frowned slightly, looked along what he felt, and then saw a 'familiar' figure in a corner of the corridor on the second floor.

He is thin but has very strong muscles. He is wearing a gray-black kimono and has brown hair. There are two cross scars on his chin. His right eye is wrapped in a bandage. The remaining left eye is so narrow and long that it gives people an impression. An extremely sinister feeling.

If not Danzo Shimura, who else could it be?

‘When did this troublemaker come here? ’

Qing Ming was confused, but didn't look at the other party.

Although the first time they met, the other party showed malice, which made Qing Ming very unhappy.

But his family knows his own affairs, and with his current strength, he is still unable to challenge the other party's authority.

In this case, it is natural to hide as far away as you can.

He is not an ignorant person, he still has to jump around even if he is not strong enough.

That would have no effect other than temporarily feeling more comfortable.

It may even lead to death.

The correct approach should be to increase your strength and then slap the opponent to death.

Seeing Qingming look away, Danzo Shimura looked at the root ninja beside him and said: "Before tonight, I want all the information on these two people."

"Yes, Lord Danzo!"

After responding, the root ninja disappeared.

At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the stage, encouraged everyone, and announced that the Chuunin Exam was over.

As for the results...

It will take two days before it is announced.

After that, the candidates present followed their respective teachers or ordering chunin and left the central tower one after another.

Before Qing Ming could move, two figures came to him.

It was Uchiha Haruto and Uchiha Shisui.

"Let's go together!"

Haruto Uchiha spoke.

Hearing this, Qing Ming agreed without any hesitation.

Danzo's appearance made him a little more vigilant.

Now, being able to follow Uchiha Haruto, the senior ninja, is naturally what he wants.

······

More than half an hour later.

Qingming said goodbye to Uchiha Haruto and Uchiha Shisui and returned home.

The first thing he did when he got home was to sense everything around him. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It's no wonder that he made such a fuss. It was really that Danzo's malice was too obvious.

With his memories of his previous life, he knew very well that Danzo was a person who would do anything to achieve his goals.

It would be a dream to expect such a person to abide by the unspoken rules of the village.

So, he had to be careful.

Anyway, he couldn't stay in the village for long, so it was always right to be careful now.

When he returned to the battlefield, it would not be so easy for Danzo to have any crooked thoughts.

Retracting his thoughts, Qingming began to think about the problem of making up for his shortcomings before.

For large-scale offensive fire ninjutsu, Qingming could only think of the various fire ninjutsu performed by Jiraiya, as well as the ‘Fire Style: Great Fire Extinguishment’ and ‘Fire Style: Great Fire Extinguishment’ performed by Uchiha Madara.

The former needs to be obtained from Jiraiya. Although Jiraiya is not difficult to talk to, the two parties are not related, and it is impossible for others to teach him the best.

As for the latter...

‘Maybe it can be found in the collection of the Uchiha clan. ’

If it is really not found, he can also wait until he develops chakra of other attributes and then look for similar ninjutsu.

“You can’t let a living person hold his urine to death.”

Muttering to himself, Qingming stopped thinking about it and started practicing today.

Although the Chunin Exam has just passed, you can’t relax for a moment in your practice.

Only in this way can he ensure that he will not regret it when danger comes.

That’s it...
