Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 704 Action
Ever since the 'Seal of Self-Karma Binding' and the 'Seal of Four Symbols' were completed, Qing Ming completely relaxed. Although the Seven-Tailed Fox was not yet in his hands, in his opinion, it was already in his pocket.

However, what he didn't expect was that after another day, Takigakure Village still hadn't taken any action.

And if they don't take action, the shadow clone will not be able to find the place where the Seven-Tails is sealed.

In this way, there was no way for him to take any action.

It can be said that it is extremely passive.

However, there is not without good news.

At the very least, the Hidden Cloud Village did not launch another large-scale attack.

At the same time, the Cloud Ninja who was in charge of investigating the disappearance of the infiltration team in the Devil's Weeping Forest did not cause any trouble.

This allowed him to concentrate on his practice without being distracted by other things.

Next, he just needs to do his own things step by step and wait for the shadow clone lurking in Takigakure Village to send back news.

He just didn't believe that Takigakure Village could remain silent.

It turned out that the information that the Shadow Clone had obtained earlier that Takigakure Village would take action within a week was quite accurate.

That night.

Qingming was still practicing in the tent in the camp when suddenly a memory popped up in his mind.

After discovering that this memory was not from other shadow clones, but from the shadow clone lurking in Takigakure Village, he immediately stopped practicing and began to quickly read through the memory.

Qing Ming simply ignored the memories of daily life and focused on reading his memories of today.

Soon, he discovered the problem.

Just an hour ago, Takigakure Village suddenly issued a village-wide curfew, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

At the same time, all the barriers in the village were opened.

Affected by this, the ninjas in Takigakure Village were in a panic. They didn't know what was going on. They wanted to go out to find out, but due to the village's orders, they had to give up.

However, although others did not know what was going on, the shadow clone could guess a little.

In recent times, Takigakure Village has not encountered any external enemies, and he could not think of any other possibility except that the top leaders were preparing to transplant the Seven-Tails and create a Jinchūriki, a 'nuclear weapon' in the ninja world.

Therefore, after finding an opportunity to escape from other people's sight, he immediately released the 'Shadow Clone Technique' and sent back his memories and related information.

After reading this, Qing Ming suddenly opened his eyes.

Then, without any hesitation, he quickly packed up his equipment, took a mask that had been prepared long ago, and put it on his face.

Then, he directly consumed thousands of chakras and performed the "Flying Thunder God Technique", instantly crossing the long distance and arriving at the forest outside Takigakure Village.

It’s not that the shadow clone didn’t leave a chakra mark in Takigakure Village, but he was afraid that teleporting directly there would alert the enemy.

Originally, the sudden disappearance of the shadow clone might have attracted the attention of Takigakure Village. Now that a stranger suddenly broke in, they might cancel their plans directly.

If that were the case, then everything he had done would be in vain.

So, just in case, he would rather put in a little more effort.

As for the fact that there are so many people in Takigakure Village, why would the shadow clone be noticed?

It's very simple. Yuichi Mizutani, who is disguised as a shadow clone, is a jonin. Although he has not entered the core of power in Takigakure Village, Takigakure Village is just a small ninja village and there are not many jonin. Such a large operation naturally requires the efforts of these jonin.

Yuichi Mizutani's task was to defend the outskirts of the village and prevent others from approaching or sneaking in.

It was during this opportunity that he was able to escape and thus release the 'Shadow Clone Technique'.

Now, maybe he has been discovered missing.

Therefore, we must not be careless. Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qingming quickly reviewed the action plan.

Then, he raised his hands, formed seals, and performed 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' and 'Chakra Feather Robe', and flew into the sky, flying towards the direction of Takigakure Village.

This forest is not too far from Takigakure Village. It would take an hour to get there by 'Ninja Run', but only two or three minutes by flying.

Soon, Qingming saw the waterfall that covered the entrance to Takigakure Village.

I have to say that it is indeed huge, and it looks particularly magnificent even at night.

Unfortunately, he didn't come here to see the scenery.

Hovering in the air, Qingming raised his hand and formed a seal, unlocking the "protective seal" between his eyebrows.

Then, he concentrated and opened his Byakugan.

The next moment, his vision penetrated the Konoha forehead protector and the mask on his face and saw what was within a kilometer below.

Just as the shadow clone remembered, there were many Takigakure ninjas hiding nearby. They formed a circle and protected the Takigakure Village in the center.

At this time, he was still far away and could use the cover of night to hide in the sky.

However, once he lowered his altitude and attempted to land, he would inevitably be discovered.

Then it will be troublesome.

After thinking about it, Qingming's mind moved and he opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Then, without any hesitation, he immediately activated the pupil technique of his left eye - Heaven's Control!

In an instant, his figure disappeared.

Then, he seemed to be walking in another dimension and landed directly in front of the waterfall.

Then, as if returning home, he walked in openly.

In this way, he passed through several checkpoints in succession, and after entering the interior of Takigakure Village and hiding in an empty corner, he released the "Heavenly Guard".

Under the mask, a stream of blood flowed from his left eye, like a tear of blood, giving people a weird feeling.

Qing Ming closed his left eye, feeling a slight stinging pain, and knew that he had pushed it too far.

Currently, the evolution degree of his Sharingan is (40550/50000), and he can maintain the "Heavenly Defense" for up to fifty seconds at a time.

Just now, although he sneaked in quickly, the entrance to Takigakure Village was complicated and guarded by people. He didn't dare to show up at all, so it took him more than forty seconds.

This was already close to his limit, and naturally put a great strain on his eyes.

It's just that his 'physique' attribute is far superior to that of ordinary people, and his body's ability to withstand pressure is strong enough.

Otherwise, with the way he used it, his eyesight would have deteriorated significantly long ago. How could he be like this, looking like nothing happened?

However, we still need to pay attention when it is time to pay attention.

After all, according to the current progress, it will take nearly two months for his Sharingan to evolve beyond the (50000/50000) mark, thus evolving into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and getting rid of the risk of blindness.

Nothing can go wrong in these two months!
All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qingming quickly put them behind him. He rested for a while on the spot, and after his eyes had almost recovered, he set out again and rushed to the place that his shadow clone had investigated, which was most likely the place where the Seven-Tails was imprisoned.

This time, he did not activate the "Heavenly Control" throughout the process. After entering the range of the barrier, it would not be easy for the other party to find him.

Therefore, he could be bolder and transform into other people's appearances, walk around the village, and use the ability of "Heavenly Control" after encountering patrol personnel that are difficult to avoid.

This can reduce a lot of his pressure.
