Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 942 New Stronghold
on the sky.

A flash of green light flashed by.

It took Qingming about fifteen minutes to arrive near the target base.

You can see that in the deep sea ahead, there is an island standing alone.

Its overall shape is crescent-shaped, about two kilometers long, about five hundred meters wide in the middle, and only a few dozen meters wide at the narrowest points on both sides.

In addition, its crescent position was facing southwest, and Qingming flew straight towards it, as if it had broken into its arms.

Logically speaking, this kind of terrain is very suitable as a port. Even if the population is not relocated, the Three Kingdoms can set up a supply point here.

But unfortunately, they didn't do that.

As for the reason
In addition to the previously mentioned fact that the sea conditions in the nearby waters are extremely bad, there is another important reason, that is, its crescent-shaped location is dotted with islands and reefs, making it impossible for ships to approach.

For this reason, even when there were still ships operating nearby, no one paid attention to this island.

This also made Qingming feel more at ease.

Because this means that even if someone is stubborn enough to break into this sea area, they will most likely not get close to here.

And he will have this island all to himself.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Qing Ming flew over the island and opened his eyes again as usual, scanning the surroundings.

Only after making sure that there was no one around did he land on the island.

Unlike the previous island we stayed on, although it was not completely desolate, the plants there were indeed scarce. But what about here?

Not only is the vegetation lush, but you can even see some small land animals while walking among them.

This made Qing Ming swallow his saliva.

Obviously, he was greedy.

He had been practicing this round for eight days. He ate hundreds of military pills every day, and his mouth was already dry.

If you could catch some pheasants, rabbits or something, and roast them over a fire, wow, the taste would be so unimaginable!
Reaching out to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Qing Ming resisted the urge to take action immediately and prepared to find a suitable location to build a shelter first.

This step was not difficult for Qingming. With the perspective ability of the Byakuyan, he easily found a flat place that was sheltered from the wind.

After glancing at the surrounding trees and vines, Qing Ming raised his hand without saying a word and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Wind Blade!

huh~
Then a giant wind blade about five or six meters long appeared, flying close to the ground, and gradually disappeared after more than ten meters.

Everything was normal at first where it flew over.

But just a few breaths later, accompanied by a "crack" sound, a big tree suddenly tilted and fell to one side.

Its fall seemed to trigger a chain reaction, and the surrounding trees fell down one after another.

Soon, the area was covered with fallen trees.

Looking at the broken branches and leaves all over the ground, Qing Ming did not waste his energy moving them away one by one. Instead, he used another ninjutsu - Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!

Call ~
Then a gust of wind blew out from his mouth, and the trees, which had lost their restraints from the earth, were easily blown away into the distance.

At this point, a flat ground about five or six meters wide and more than ten meters long was cleared on the spot.

Qingming was planning to cut down some trees and build a wooden house.

But just as he took a step, he suddenly thought of something and paused.

Then, he slapped his forehead, walked to the center of the open space, squatted down, and pressed his hands on the ground.

He condensed a stream of Wood Release Chakra and injected it into the depths of the earth.

The next moment, vines emerged from the ground. According to Qingming's will, they twisted and grew together, and finally formed a simple wooden house of about 30 square meters.

It is true that he did not know any Wood Release Ninjutsu, but with the power of his bloodline, it would not be a problem for him to build such a wooden house.

In addition, the vines that Qingming had stimulated were not completely created by chakra. They were originally transformed from the roots of plants underground, so there was no need to worry about them suddenly disintegrating and dissipating after the chakra supply was cut off. Qingming took two steps back, looked at the wooden house, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he went to the center of the island and did the same thing to clear a piece of open space.

Then, it used the 'Earth Escape: Super Heavy Rock Technique' to press the land here harder than stone.

After finishing all this, it was already dark.

Today, he still had a round of training to complete, so he didn't waste any more time and immediately performed the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique', creating two hundred and twenty shadow clones.

That's right, after half an afternoon of experiments, he had increased the number of shadow clones to two hundred and twenty.

Even if so many shadow clones practice together, his spirit can bear it, and it will not cause too much waste of chakra.

Therefore, Qing Ming created so many shadow clones at once.

Looking at these shadow clones, Qing Ming asked 218 of them to find a place to develop ice escape.

Of the remaining two shadow clones, he sent one to make barbecue, while the other took the sealing scroll he threw to him and went to decorate the wooden house.

After all these shadow clones left, Qingming himself entered a state of cultivation.

In the last round of training, he strengthened his body at the bottom of the sea, and this round should stimulate the evolution of the Sharingan.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Qingming raised his hands to form seals and performed the "Art of Reflecting the Heart".

Three strands of chakra were born from his body, flowing along the chakra meridians throughout his body, converging at one place, and flowing into his eyes together.

A familiar tingling sensation came over him, and Qingming endured the discomfort, guiding the chakra bit by bit to stimulate the evolution of his Sharingan.

Time passes minute by minute.

Soon, an hour passed.

Qingming paused the performance of the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart', and with a thought, he opened the proficiency panel.

Looking at the new degree of evolution after the Sharingan in the bloodline column, he nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he closed the panel and released the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique'.

In an instant, more than two hundred shadow clones disappeared inside and outside the island.

A large amount of memory information flooded into Qingming's mind, making him frown.

However, this is still within his tolerance.

So, Qing Ming simply closed his eyes and began to browse the memory information and digest the cultivation experience contained therein.

About a quarter of an hour later, Qingming had digested the memories of his shadow clones and opened his eyes again.

Although his gains this time were not as great as last time, Qing Ming could still feel that he had a new understanding of how to integrate wind escape and water escape.

After pondering for a while, Qing Ming raised his hand and tried to merge it several times.

As always, he was unsuccessful.

After calming down, Qing Ming stood up, sensed the location of his shadow clone who was going to grill the meat, and then disappeared from the spot with a few flashes.

At the same time, on the other side of the island, a figure was sitting by the fire, flipping the barbecue from time to time.

The sizzling sound continued to be heard. Although there was no condiment on it, the Maillard reaction between the amino acids and reducing sugars in the meat still made people's appetite whetted.

Just like now, Qing Ming's figure suddenly appeared, and without waiting for his shadow clone to say anything, he grabbed the roasted pheasant and started to tear it apart.

"Hiss~, hot! Hot! Hot!"

Qingming kept shouting that the food was hot but kept eating, and two words stood out - eager!
