Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 1084 Predictions and News

"Ten percent?"

Qingming murmured something.

Then, he shook his head and said nothing more.

A 10% reduction in efficiency is still acceptable to him.

After all, this level of efficiency will only last for the first two months. Once his Sharingan reaches its evolutionary point and he redistributes his time to 'Body Extreme', his efficiency will increase again.

However, it remains to be seen how long it will take for it to transform again.
He needs to conduct further tests.

Qingming glanced at the setting sun on the distant horizon and felt that it was about time.

Therefore, instead of delving into the volcano to cultivate the 'Ultimate Body Technique,' he was teleported to the primeval forest in the northeastern part of the Land of Fire, where he began cultivating together with his shadow clones.

Of course, he practiced the 'Mind Reflection Technique'.

······
Before we knew it, it was late at night again.

Qingming completed his planned training for the day.

"panel!"

With a thought, he opened the proficiency panel.

Looking at the 150 new evolution points added to the Sharingan, he nodded in satisfaction.

Then, a thought traveled to Moon Island.

He returned to the cabin and began to rest.

The practice continued the next day!

He still cultivates the "Body Extreme" during the day to strengthen his body and promote the evolution of his Byakugan. During the six hours from afternoon to evening, he uses the "Mind Reflection Technique" to stimulate the evolution of his Sharingan.

After cultivating for seven consecutive days, he was finally able to make a relatively accurate estimate of the time required for his body's next transformation.

According to his estimate, it will take about six months for his body to reach the critical point this time, which is until February next year.

This timeframe is almost twice as long as the last transformation.

Upon reaching this conclusion, Qingming's expression turned grim.

Although he was mentally prepared and knew that as his body continued to transform, the difficulty of strengthening it would also increase, doubling it directly was still somewhat hard for him to accept.

"Inhale...exhale..."

Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.

Qingming forced himself to calm down and began to analyze the reasons for this situation.

After careful comparison, he realized that he had been overthinking things.

In reality, the time required for this transformation was not twice as long as before, at most about 1.7 times.

More importantly, in just over two months, his efficiency in strengthening his body will inevitably increase significantly, and it certainly won't take six months.

In other words, this multiple will decrease further.

This immediately put Qingming at ease.

If the time required doubles every time, even he wouldn't be able to accept it.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

Pulling his thoughts back, Qingming focused his attention on another point: the chakra he accumulated each day.

It's worth mentioning that he accumulated the 4.5 million points of freely disposable chakra he gained each day from the successive improvements in his 'physical' and 'spiritual' attributes.

The three million chakra points required to restart the 'Mind Reflection Technique' were replenished by the three million chakra points he saved using 'Body Limit Technique'.

In this way, it's equivalent to not expending any extra chakra.

However, this does not mean that he can accumulate 582 million (=450 million + 132 million) chakra points every day.

He had already allocated 300,000 of the 1.32 million chakra points he had accumulated each day to developing his bloodline limit.

Indeed, after more than twenty days of practice, he gained a new understanding of how to integrate the seven chakra nature transformations and develop the bloodline limit.

Correspondingly, the dynamic equilibrium point for maintaining efficient experience acquisition has changed from the original two hundred shadow clones cultivating simultaneously to the current two hundred and fifty.

As a result, the chakra consumed naturally increased, from the original two million points to the current two million three hundred thousand points.

However, even so, he still has no clear answer as to when he will be able to successfully fuse the seven chakra nature transformations and develop the bloodline limit.

Fortunately, he had just received news that Konoha and Kumogakure were preparing to sign the final version of the peace treaty. For a long time to come, the ninja world would be relatively peaceful, giving him ample time to experiment. Gathering his thoughts, Qingming stopped his wandering ideas, raised his hands to form hand seals, and once again unleashed the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique,' beginning a new round of training.

······
Sunrise and sunset.

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

It was late August.

This morning.

Qingming is cultivating the 'Ultimate Body Technique' inside the volcano below Moon Island.

Suddenly, a memory surfaced in his mind.

This memory belongs to none other than the clone of the wooden figure stationed on the northern border of the Land of Fire, confronting the border troops of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Realizing this, Qingming immediately stopped cultivating.

He stood still, focused his mind, and began to carefully review the other person's memories.

Even though the other party has been trying to reduce the frequency of their activities and minimize the intake of information.

However, as one of the strongest individuals in the border camp, he has had quite a few missions to perform in the past period of time.

In this way, the amount of information stored in the memory will naturally be substantial.

It took Qingming more than half an hour to browse through the other party's memories from the past period.

In an instant, he gained a fairly detailed understanding of the situation at the border and in the village.

At the same time, they also learned why the other party suddenly disintegrated and transmitted their memories back.

It turns out that just yesterday, Kumogakure and Konoha officially signed a peace treaty.

As agreed, both sides will withdraw their troops from the border simultaneously starting today.

And he was among the first group to evacuate.

It is foreseeable that once this group and the corresponding troops from Kumogakure return to their respective villages, the situation on the border will completely cool down.

With mutual trust in place, even if something unexpected happens later, it won't be so easy for a conflict to escalate.

Therefore, there must be absolutely no problems with this first batch of troops being evacuated.

However, Konoha's Anbu seemed to have discovered something, which made Minato Namikaze somewhat nervous, so he secretly ordered these Jonin to remain vigilant at all times.

That is why the wooden clone chose to disintegrate itself to call him back.

Inside the volcano.

Qingming opened his eyes.

Recalling the orders his wooden clone had received, he frowned slightly.

He really couldn't understand what kind of accident could happen at a time like this.
In my memory, on another timeline, after Konoha and Kumogakure signed a peace treaty, it seems that no problems have arisen since.

'Could this time be different? The butterfly effect?'

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but Qingming finally shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

As the saying goes, when soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.

No matter who's behind the scenes or what their schemes are, as long as he's strong enough, there's no problem.

And this was also the idea of ​​the Wood Clone.

It just so happens that he has been cultivating continuously for quite some time, and it's time for him to take a break.

Upon realizing this, Qingming immediately activated the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' and teleported to the top of Moon Island.

After waiting a while and allowing his body to recover naturally, he deactivated the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique'.

In an instant, everything inside and outside the island, including the shadow clones absorbing natural energy in the forests of the northeastern part of the Land of Fire, disintegrated and vanished.

A flood of memory information rushed into my mind.

Qingming skillfully suppressed the memories temporarily, first sorting and storing the chakra and natural energy that returned along with the memories before beginning to browse through them.

Soon, he had sorted through the memories in his mind, and all the cultivation experience contained within was absorbed and digested by him.

After doing all this, he returned to the cabin, tidied up his things a bit, and then activated the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' again.
