Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 638 Arrangements and Surprises

According to the village's arrangement, they will need to stay on the front line for half a month to a month before returning in batches.

Qingming guessed that the reason for this buffer was that the village was afraid that something unexpected would happen again, so they wanted to wait until the situation was completely stabilized before letting them go back.

In addition, the Uchiha clan also conveyed a message to him, that is, the third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is likely to abdicate.

Next, the village will select the fourth Hokage, so he should be careful with his words and not express his opinions easily.

In response, Qing Ming just curled his lips and thought to himself: "You are going to break with the village and stage a coup in a few years. Now you ask me to be careful with my words. This is a joke!"

However, even though he laughed, Qingming decided not to get involved in this matter.

Although he knew very well that the Fourth Hokage was Minato Namikaze, he didn't want to get close to him.

Not to mention that he hasn't decided yet whether to help the other party during the Nine-Tail Rebellion.

If he had not taken action, history would have evolved along a different timeline, and Minato Namikaze would not have been able to sit on the throne of Hokage for long.

Then, everything he has done for this will be in vain.

Therefore, it is better to do nothing.

Besides, his personality does not allow him to do these things.

Compared to maintaining relationships, Qingming would rather spend time improving his own strength.

There is a saying in the previous life that when you are strong, the whole world will be kind to you, but when you are weak, everyone you see will look at you with cold faces.

This is true for a world without any supernatural power, let alone a supernatural world that possesses this great power!

Why were Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha able to find a new way to build a village and bring together various families during the chaotic Warring States Period?
It’s because they are strong enough to control the situation!
If they don’t have enough strength, who will listen to them?
Not to mention, other countries followed suit.

Qingming did not expect to break the existing pattern of the ninja world. All he wanted was to practice quietly and transcend this world.

Therefore, he does not need to worry about maintaining any relationships. As long as he is strong enough, he himself is the overall situation.

By then, as long as he wants, others will naturally revolve around him.

In this case, doing something is a piece of cake for him!
Unconsciously, Qingming thought a lot.

After a long time, he came back to his senses.

At this moment, his heart was calmer than ever before. Even the news of the end of the war could not stir his heart.

"call--"

Qingming let out a sigh and stopped thinking about it.

He raised his hands, crossed them to form the "壬" character seal, and performed the ninjutsu - Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!

bang~
Accompanied by a cloud of chakra smoke dissipating.

Ten shadow clones appeared on the scene.

Qing Ming looked at one of them and said directly: "Go back!"

"Ah."

Hearing this, the shadow clone nodded in response.

Afterwards, he performed the 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' and 'Chakra Feather Robe', and his entire body turned into a stream of light, flying high into the sky, flying towards the direction of Shahe City.

The shadow clone who stayed behind in Shahe City directly cancelled the 'Shadow Clone Technique' in order to convey the message to him as accurately as possible. Naturally, he had to make up for it now.

After all, there are still some trivial matters over there that need his attention, and he cannot be left alone.

As for the remaining shadow clone, the practice of 'Guardian of the Seal' turned into the practice of 'Lightning Release: Thunder Snake' and 'Lightning Release: Thunder Prison'.

Therefore, it is necessary to create an extra shadow clone.

Qingming assigned tasks to the nine shadow clones and let them leave.

As for himself, he continued to practice the 'Palm Immortal Technique' and the 'Heart Reflection Technique', strengthening his body while increasing the degree of evolution of his Sharingan.

······
In a blink of an eye, it was late at night.

Just when Qingming was planning to practice the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" while his chakra was at a low level, and then end today's practice and return to Shahe City, the last round of shadow clones brought him a small surprise. Before, when he tested the "Chakra Absorption Technique" on the Vulpix, he said that the level 6 "Chakra Absorption Technique" still had certain defects.

And over the past period of time, he has been trying to improve it.

However, the further back in time, the more difficult it becomes to improve.

Therefore, until an hour ago, it had not yet reached the perfect state of lv7 (0/0).

But now, it's complete.

As for the reason
It was also very simple. The completion of 'Guardian of the Seal' today gave him inspiration, allowing him to break through the last obstacle and successfully bring it to perfection.

Previously, the 'Chakra Absorption Technique' had two main flaws:
One is that there is no way to effectively suppress the impact of the tailed beast's will, so he cannot absorb the tailed beast's chakra for a long time.

The second is that the efficiency of absorbing the tailed beast's chakra is not high, only one-fourth of that of a human, that is, 500 points per second.

In addition to this, there is another less obvious flaw, which is that the chakra conversion rate can only reach 90%, but not 100%.

Now, all three deficiencies have been resolved.

The first is the issue of the impact of the tailed beasts' will.

Based on the inspiration provided by the 'Guardian Seal', Qing Ming added a layer of protection for his own spiritual will when absorbing chakra.

Although he has not actually put it into practice, Qingming is confident that he can withstand the impact of the tailed beast's will for a certain period of time.

In this way, as long as he controls the frequency of absorption, there will be no major problems.

Although this seems to be just a stopgap measure, Qingming does not need to solve the problem once and for all.

There is no other reason. The reason why the will of the tailed beast can affect him is that his own mental will is not strong enough.

If his mental will is strong enough, then the mental will carried in the tailed beast's chakra will be nothing to him.

And it just so happened that the 'spiritual' attribute was the focus of his improvement.

Maybe if he could endure a little more impact from the tailed beast's will, he could speed up his progress!
That’s why Qingming said that there is no need to solve this problem completely.

As for the absorption efficiency of chakra
Originally, Qingming thought this was the easiest problem to solve, but in practice he found that it was not the case at all.

The reason is very simple, that is, promotion to level 6 is almost the limit of this technique.

Although he took a few more steps on it, he was still within that framework.

Therefore, as long as that framework is not broken, there will be no major breakthrough in the efficiency of absorbing chakra.

Fortunately, he has a proficiency panel.

In the end, with his assistance, he changed the original framework of the 'Chakra Absorption Technique', turning it from single-threaded to dual-threaded.

The so-called single-threaded and dual-threaded are literal meanings.

In the past, when he absorbed the target's chakra, whether with one hand or both hands, the maximum efficiency was fixed, and he used the same circulation system.

But now, each hand absorbs separately, and the absorption efficiency of each hand can reach the original level.

In this way, his maximum speed of absorbing the target chakra naturally doubled.

Although one thousand points per second is still not a high number, it is a significant improvement compared to the original five hundred points per second.

Considering his current and future chakra limit, this absorption efficiency is more than enough.

As for the third flaw.
When Qing Ming was dealing with the problem of the impact of the tailed beasts' wills, the problem was solved naturally.

Although there are no tailed beasts to test him now, Qingming estimates that his efficiency in converting the tailed beasts' chakra into his own chakra can reach 99%, even if it cannot reach 100%.

And this is almost the limit.

After all, there is still a slight difference between the chakra of the tailed beasts and the chakra of humans.

After checking out this little surprise, Qing Ming didn't waste any more time. He immediately started practicing the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique' while the chakra in his body had not yet recovered.

For a moment, the forest was filled with shadowy figures, as if it were haunted.
