Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 673 One after another
"Treat people?"

Qing Ming stopped, looked at the figure standing on the street corner, and spoke in confusion.

"it's me."

Uchiha Jito responded, walked out of the shadows, and looked at Qingming with a complicated expression.

He didn't care why the other party had such an expression. Compared to this, he wanted to know more about what the other party wanted to talk to him about?

Yes, he could confirm that the other party was waiting for him.

Otherwise, who would wander around outside in the middle of the night?

Therefore, he did not beat around the bush and directly asked the question in his mind: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Jito didn't waste any words. He nodded first, then shook his head and said, "It's not me who is looking for you, it's the Great Elder who is looking for you."

"Great Elder?"

Qingming became even more confused.

In the past two years, he had only come into contact with one Uchiha elder, and that was Uchiha Karana.

However, the other party was not the great elder of the Uchiha clan.

In other words, he and the so-called great elder had no connection at all.

'Why did the other party suddenly come to me?'

"Could it be related to Danzo again?"

Qingming was thinking in his heart, and heard Uchiha Zhiren continue: "Yes, it is the Great Elder, he wants you to come over."

"Well, it seems to be related to Danzo."

Just hearing this similar request, Qing Ming knew that he had guessed right.

Since the situation was getting more and more complicated, he simply didn't refuse and agreed directly.

Afterwards, the two changed direction and headed straight for the Great Elder's residence.

Unlike Uchiha Fugaku, the place where this great elder lives is relatively remote, almost located in the deepest part of the Uchiha clan's territory.

However, the residential courtyard was also not small, but it seemed much quieter and there were not so many servants inside.

This kind of environment, coupled with the fact that it was late at night, made walking in it feel somewhat eerie.

"arrive!"

Just as Qingming was daydreaming, Uchiha Jito's voice suddenly sounded beside him.

Then he packed his clothes and knocked on the door in front of him respectfully.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Soon, an old voice was heard from inside.

"Come in!"

Hearing this, Uchiha Jito nodded at Qingming, then pushed the door open and walked in.

crunch~
The door was pushed open.

Uchiha Jito and Qingming walked in one after another.

As you can see, this is a study room. In addition to some fully-stocked bookshelves, there is only a desk and a few chairs.

At this time, an old man who looked quite old was sitting behind the desk. He leaned back in the chair, his eyes closed, his brows furrowed from time to time, as if he was thinking about something.

The two came to the desk, and Uchiha Jito said carefully: "Grand Elder, someone is coming!"

Hearing this, the old man finally opened his eyes.

Suddenly, Qingming felt an invisible pressure exerted on his body. This was not some mental force, but an aura that was naturally generated after being in a high position for a long time.

Fortunately, Qing Ming had been fighting on the battlefield for more than two years and had experienced life and death, so he was not shocked by the opponent.

The Great Elder looked him up and down for a few times, and seeing that he looked normal, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Uchiha Zhiren and said, "Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, you can go down first, Zhiren."

"Yes, Great Elder!"

Uchiha Haruto obeyed the Great Elder's orders. After hearing what the other party said, he didn't say a word. He just responded with "yes" and turned and left.

After the door was closed again, the Great Elder focused his attention on Qingming again and said, "Qingming, a good kid!"

He praised her again before continuing, "You know what? I've been paying attention to you for a long time, and I know that you are a very emotional child."

"During the time when your parents passed away, I sent someone to keep an eye on you, that is, the one who just passed away, Jito, to confirm whether you activated your Sharingan because of this."

"Unfortunately, you didn't open your Sharingan until I handed your parents' pension to you. This makes me very disappointed."

Hearing this, Qingming couldn't help but feel a little scared.

At that time, he found nothing.

Fortunately, the other party gave up early, otherwise, being watched by a senior ninja 24 hours a day, he didn't think he could keep his secret.

It is true that even if others cannot notice the proficiency panel, they will also find the abnormality in his improved strength.

It’s hard to say what will happen then.

Perhaps, he will be treated as a genius and given intensive training, but he may also have his memory read to see if there is something wrong with him.

In short, his fate was definitely no longer in his hands at that time.

I can only say, thank goodness!

Fortunately, he traveled through time relatively late, and fortunately, improving his proficiency panel is a gradual process.

Otherwise, it would be hard to know what his current situation would be!
Qing Ming suppressed his inner turmoil and made sure his expression did not show any abnormality.

At this time, the elder's tone suddenly changed and became high-spirited: "Fortunately, fortunately you did not let me down. You finally awakened the Sharingan and it was unstoppable."

"do you know?"

"When I heard from the clan that you had made breakthroughs one after another on the battlefield, and that your Sharingan had reached the level of three magatama in just one year, I was so happy. Facts have proved that my vision was not wrong!"

"No, your vision is very problematic. If it weren't for the proficiency panel, let alone awakening the three-magatama Sharingan, the original owner of this body would have been lucky to be able to open a single-magatama Sharingan." "So, Qingming, tell me, have you awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

"Uh, why did you bring up the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

The topic changed so quickly that Qingming was caught off guard.

It was seen that this great elder, like Uchiha Fugaku just now, suddenly opened the Three-magatama Sharingan before he finished speaking, as if he also wanted to stimulate him in this way and make him show his true strength.

Qing Ming couldn't help but be speechless, thinking to himself that you two really are of the same bloodline, even your way of doing things is the same.

In his perception, although the old man was unable to maintain high-intensity pupil power for a long time due to his age and lack of energy, the power he briefly burst out was even greater than that of Uchiha Fugaku.

Unfortunately, this is of no use. Without awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, it is impossible to know the difference between the two.

Qingming easily withstood the pressure exerted by the other party.

Just like when he faced Uchiha Fugaku just now, the eye power he displayed was still only slightly higher than that of his opponent.

At first, the Great Elder felt that Qingming's pupil power surpassed his own, and he showed a hint of joy, but when he saw that Qingming's Sharingan was still only three magatama, he froze in place.

"What's going on? Impossible! You didn't even awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan? Then how did you kill Danzo?"

"I wasn't the one who killed Danzo."

Although there were no outsiders nearby, judging from the attitude of the Great Elder, he was obviously a radical in the tribe. Even if he told the truth, the other party would keep it secret for him. But since the decision had been made, he would not change it at will.

Therefore, he still insisted that he did not kill the person.

However, the Great Elder did not believe his answer at all, but that was not what he was concerned about right now.

He intended to continue strengthening his pupil power and test Qingming's limits.

But unfortunately, he is too old and cannot sustain his outburst for too long.

In the end, he only persisted for a few breaths before his entire aura quickly declined as his pupil power weakened.

bang~
Sitting back in his chair, the Great Elder stared at Qing Ming, looked at his three-magatama Sharingan, and asked unwillingly: "You really haven't awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

"No."

Qing Ming replied in a decisive tone.

Hearing this answer, the Great Elder showed disappointment on his face.

Before, he compared the strength of Qingming and Danzo, and felt that Qingming could kill Danzo and a large number of his subordinates, and he must have awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Otherwise, there is no explanation at all.

But now, he was not sure, because right now, Qingming's pupil power had already surpassed his peak level, and he seemed to be able to do it with ease.

He couldn't estimate how strong Qingming was in this state. Perhaps he could kill Danzo and his men without opening the Mangekyō Sharingan.

After a moment's silence, the Great Elder stopped hesitating.

Anyway, Qingming is still very young, and whether he has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan or not, there will still be opportunities in the future.

So, there is absolutely no need to rush.

"Whoo~~~"

Breathe a long sigh of relief.

The elder looked at Qingming and said, "Well, since you said no, then no. Don't pay attention to the summons from the Hokage. The family will block it for you. Just focus on your training. Also."

As he spoke, he opened the drawer under the table, took out a letter from it, handed it to Qingming, and said, "This is the pass I personally issued. Take this. From now on, the clan's secret collection will be completely open to you. You can view and browse it at will."

"This"

Qing Ming took the letter and felt that happiness came too suddenly.

Originally, he was still thinking about how to enter the family secret room again and learn the skills that were unique to the Uchiha clan.

Apart from anything else, the magical skill of 'transcription seal' must be learned.

This technique allows you to look into the target's eyes through the Sharingan and seal the "technique" into your own or the target's eyes. When the "conditions" are met, the seal will be automatically released and the "technique" will be automatically activated to attack the target.

What this is equivalent to is a program that can be executed as long as the conditions are met.

Therefore, as long as you choose the right "technique" and then formulate the "conditions", you can do a lot of things, and Qingming will definitely not miss it.

However, he originally thought that it would take some effort to acquire this pupil technique.

I never thought that the opportunity would come to me like this.

Moreover, it is an opportunity that can be used unlimited times.

He couldn't refuse this at all, and even his eyes towards the Great Elder became much kinder.

Qing Ming doesn't care whether the other party is a radical or not. As long as he can bring him benefits, it is no problem even if he gets him to side with the other party.

In comparison, Uchiha Fugaku called him over in the middle of the night, and apart from the initial inquiries about his well-being, he did not provide him with any substantial help.

Perhaps in his opinion, taking the pressure from the Hokage faction for him was already a benefit, but compared with the Great Elder, it still seemed a bit stingy.

Thinking of this, Qing Ming sincerely thanked the great elder in front of him: "Thank you, great elder!"

Hearing this, the Great Elder just waved his hand and said, "Nothing."

As he spoke, he yawned and said, "Well, it's getting late, you should go down and rest! Remember to practice well!"

"Yes, Great Elder!"

Qingming finally responded, and after he nodded in response, he turned and left.

crunch~
bang~
The door opened and closed.

The Great Elder was the only one left in the study.

He stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, muttering: "Kaleidoscope, kaleidoscope"

As an old man who has followed Uchiha Madara since the Warring States Period, he is well aware of the importance of the Mangekyō Sharingan to the Uchiha clan.

As long as the Uchiha clan can awaken a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, many problems can be easily solved.

"such a pity"
