Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 745 Awakening and News

"Forget it, let's leave it at that for now!"

Murmuring, Qingming stopped thinking about it for the time being.

He stood up, gathered his things, and then sensed the Flying Thunder God Seal in his own training room in the village.

Then, he thought about it, performed the "Flying Thunder God Technique", and returned to the village.

That's right, he didn't plan to rest on the island tonight.

For a week in a row, he practiced almost every day beyond the limits of his physical and mental endurance, and he really couldn't hold on any longer.

Just in time, with the upgrade of 'Seal of All Things', his training has come to an end, and it's time to relax a little.

As the saying goes, everything is excessive or insufficient. Cultivation also requires a balance between relaxation and tension. Qingming doesn't want to keep his spirits too tense and cause the string to break.

······
The vision in front of me suddenly changed.

A second ago, Qing Ming was still on the huge rock on the island.

The next second, he appeared in the training room in his own house.

Almost at the moment he appeared, a barely perceptible sound of footsteps was heard, and then the door of the training room was pushed open, and a figure walked in.

The person who came was none other than the shadow clone he left in the village to conceal his whereabouts.

The two looked at each other.

The next moment, the shadow clone disappeared.

At the same time, the other party’s memories of the past few days appeared in Qingming’s mind.

Although this memory contained a lot of information, as Qing Ming began to create dozens of shadow clones at the same time to practice, this level of information shock was nothing to him.

What's more, most of this memory information is repetitive.

So Qingming finished the sorting quickly.

However, after he finished browsing the other person's memory, his brows suddenly frowned.

There was no other reason. In the past week, for some unknown reason, the village and the Uchiha clan suddenly increased their patrols, as if they were looking for someone.

Unfortunately, at his instruction, the shadow clone deliberately reduced its presence.

Therefore, although some abnormalities were noticed, they were not investigated too deeply.

Therefore, he was not clear about what exactly happened for the time being.

I stood there thinking for a while, but still had no clue.

Qingming simply stopped thinking about it.

Whatever happens, let’s talk about it tomorrow.

Now.
Let him take a nice hot bath first, and then have a good sleep.

However, just because he doesn't look for trouble doesn't mean trouble won't look for him.

Almost as he lay down on the bed and fell asleep, a burst of dense footsteps suddenly came.

Although the footsteps were not loud, they still touched Qingming's sensitive nerves because they were too close.

He was awakened almost immediately.

On the bed, Qingming, who had been snoring just now, suddenly opened his eyes.

The next moment, he turned over and sat up, grabbed the long knife beside him, and walked to the window.

Then, he looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.

Through the gap in the window, one can see that on the street outside the window, two standard four-man patrol teams composed of Uchiha ninjas are rushing towards them from the left and right sides of the street.

When he saw them, Qing Ming immediately thought of the abnormal situation mentioned in the shadow clone's memory.

"It seems that something happened in the village that I didn't know about. The shadow clone's judgment was not wrong. These people really seemed to be looking for someone."

Here, Qingming was still thinking.

Outside the window, on the street, the Uchiha ninja leading the patrol team on the right suddenly stopped.

Then, he suddenly looked towards him. No, to be more precise, he looked at him.

Under the not-so-bright moonlight, the other party's pair of blood-red three-magatama Sharingan were particularly clear.

The moment the two looked at each other, a powerful mental force wrapped in chakra, used the eyes as a medium, and went straight into his brain, as if to pull him into some illusion.

This familiar feeling
Qing Ming knew that the opponent was using the classic illusion of the Uchiha clan - Illusion Sharingan! Being able to project such a powerful force from such a long distance, it can be said that the opponent's three-magatama Sharingan has basically reached its limit.

In the Uchiha clan, there is only one person who can achieve this, except Uchiha Fugaku and several elders who have worked hard for a long time.

"Uchiha Shisui!"

Qingming ignored the opponent's illusion and murmured something.

That’s right, this person was none other than Uchiha Shisui, who was a little younger than him, another genius of the Uchiha clan.

As if recognizing his identity, Uchiha Shisui stopped his stress reaction.

However, seeing him suddenly stop and look as if facing a great enemy, the other three people beside him were startled and quickly formed a defensive formation, looking around vigilantly.

One second, two seconds, three seconds
After more than ten seconds, nothing happened around.

At this time, someone spoke up: "Captain, did you find anything?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Shisui temporarily withdrew his gaze from Qingming, turned back and said: "It's nothing, he is one of us."

Without waiting for others to continue asking, he spoke again: "You guys continue with your mission first, I'll be away for a while."

"Yes, Captain!"

When the three heard this, although they were a little confused, they still agreed immediately.

It can be seen that these people are very convinced of Uchiha Shisui.

Seeing his three teammates respond yes, Uchiha Shisui also nodded.

Afterwards, he used the 'Teleportation Technique' and left the spot.

······
After a while.

In front of Qingming’s house.

dong dong dong~
There was a sudden knock on the door, neither light nor heavy.

crunch~
The door was opened from the inside.

Qing Ming looked at Uchiha Shisui outside the door and said with a slightly tired look, "Come in!"

That’s right, after Uchiha Shisui left the team, he went straight to his house.

He also guessed that the other party would come over, so he put on his clothes in advance and waited here.

When Uchiha Shisui saw Qingming inviting him in, he didn't say too much. He nodded and followed him into the yard.

The two came to the living room. There was silence at first, and then Uchiha Shisui spoke first.

He looked at the bloodshot eyes and tired expression of Qingming, and asked with concern: "Qingming, what's wrong with you?"

Qing Ming heard the concern in his words, waved his hand, and said: "It's nothing, I just practiced too much."

Then, without waiting for the other party to speak again, he asked first: "What's going on with you recently? The patrol density is so high, are you looking for someone?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Shisui hesitated for a moment, then told the truth: "Yes, we and the village patrol team have been looking for someone recently."

"What happened?"

Qing Ming asked again.

Uchiha Shisui replied: "In recent days, I don't know what happened, the village's perception barrier has been triggered several times. It seems that someone has sneaked into the village."

"Trigger the barrier? Sneak in?"

Qingming frowned slightly when he heard this.

"Yes."

Seeing his reaction, Uchiha Shisui nodded.

Then, he continued: "Afterwards, according to the analysis of the barrier team, the enemy is likely to have sneaked in through space-time ninjutsu. I believe you also understand the danger of this ninjutsu. Now we are looking for this person."

"Time and Space Ninjutsu?"

Hearing this key word, Qing Ming's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Could this person be referring to me?"

But he soon denied this conjecture.

It’s nothing, he hasn’t returned to the village in the past week.

Therefore, it was someone else who triggered the barrier.
