Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 16: Swordsmanship Expert! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes and monthly tickets)

Soon, Xing Xiaxiu looked through all the files in his hands.

Apart from Yakushi Nono, there is no one else familiar.

The students in these files are between eight and twelve years old.

Yakushi Nono is ten years old, Namikaze Minato should be eight years old, and there is also Uzumaki Kushina.

He didn't have any files on Minato Namikaze, and Hoshita Hide guessed that Shimura Daichi didn't have any either.

Xing Xiaxiu began to look through the files again, this time more carefully, and picked out the files that he liked.

Then the third time.

Until there were only fifteen files left.

At this time, Shimura Daichi had already handed over his fifteen files to Danzo, who was browsing through them.

After Danzo finished looking through the files, Xingxia Xiu handed over the ones he had chosen.

Danzo accepted it and quickly picked out the file of Yakushi Nono.

He saw everything Xingxia did just now.

After reviewing Yakushi Nono's file, Danzo looked up and asked, "A, why did you choose her?"

Xingxia Xiu immediately said: "This child has the talent to become a medical ninja. She has a gentle personality and has very good relationships with her classmates. But at the same time, the teacher describes her as tough and strong-willed."

"With her identity as a medical ninja, her personality, and her inner strength, I believe she would be a very good spy."

Using medical ninjas as spies?
Danzo narrowed his eyes.

A bit extravagant.

But I have to say, this is indeed a good plan.

Danzo nodded, put Yakushi Nono's file aside, and continued to browse the files.

About half an hour later, ten files, including that of Yakushi Nono, were selected.

There are civilian students and ninja students here.

However, among the ninja clans, Uchiha and Hyuga are not included.

Even though the students of these two ethnic groups are considered to be relatively outstanding in those files.

Hoshita Hide didn't know whether Shimura Daichi chose students from these two tribes, but he skipped them directly.

After the candidates were selected, Daichi Shimura was responsible for delivering the files to the head of the ninja school.

Next, the Ninja School will arrange for these ten people to graduate early, and then enter special training at the Root.

Xingxia Xiu followed Danzo out of the ninja school first, and then came to the orphanage.

Selecting people in the orphanage was relatively simple. Danzo selected fifty people at once. There was no careful selection at all, and there was no way to carefully select.

Looking at those children who were chosen and looked confused, Xingxiaxiu sighed inwardly.

He knew that half of these people were lucky if they could survive the special training.

It was his suggestion to select people from the orphanage, and the guilt grew uncontrollably in his heart.

But then Xing Xiaxiu let his heart harden.

Isn't he the same as these orphans now?
The best of the best!

Xing Xiaxiu glanced at these children and thought to himself, "The only thing I can do is to train them to be stronger."

"That's all..."

After selecting the people and returning to the root base, Xingxia Xiu put aside all distractions and continued to practice.

Whether it is wind escape or wood escape, he still has huge room for improvement.

He left Wood Style to practice at night, and Xingxia Xiu now chose Wind Style.

In the forest, Xingxia Xiu drew out his sword, injected wind jutsu chakra into it, and then tried to make the nature of wind jutsu more powerful.

Thinner and sharper!

Cultivation is boring and time passes very quickly.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xingxia Xiu finished his wind escape training. After dinner, he chose a more secluded place to continue practicing wood escape until midnight.

The status bar is updated.

Current Status: Knife Expert Note: When it comes to using a knife, you are a professional and an expert.

In this state, one is proficient in swordsmanship and has corresponding talents.

Refresh countdown: 167:59:58
“Good form!”

Xing Xiaxiu was very surprised and also felt something different.

He reached out and pulled out the samurai sword on his back, and the mysterious feeling became more obvious.

Holding the knife became more convenient, and I even felt as if... I could feel the knife's breath.

At this moment, he gained a new understanding of all the sword techniques he had practiced in the past.

"Professional, specialized... This should be the level of a Jonin."

Xing Xiaxiu made a secret judgment.

His swordsmanship was not bad before, but it was not at the level of a Jonin.

Shimura Daichi's swordsmanship is much better than his.

Now, Xingxia Xiu feels that his swordsmanship can compete with Shimura Daichi, a senior ninja who uses swordsmanship as his main fighting method.

"Unfortunately, there are only seven days."

Xingxia Xiu sighed, but then an idea came to his mind: "In this state, my swordsmanship has directly reached the level of a proficient jonin. Can I improve my swordsmanship as much as possible in these seven days?"

"For example, if I practice other sword techniques... In this way, even if the state disappears, what I have gained from my own practice will remain."

"With seven days of specialized talent, if you work hard enough, it's not impossible to keep your swordsmanship at the specialized level after refreshing your status!"

Thinking of this, Xingxiaxiu immediately made a decision.

I will apply to practice the A-level sword technique, Crescent Moon Dance, tomorrow.

Suppressing the urge to continue practicing, Xing Xiaxiu went back to rest.

Silent all night.

The next day, Hideo Hoshita obtained the scroll of Crescent Moon Dance from Danzo.

After leaving the Root Base and coming to the training ground, he opened the scroll and quickly glanced through it. Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but smile: "It doesn't look that difficult!"

After carefully reading it several times and memorizing all the key points, Xingxia Xiu drew his sword and began to practice.

The two most crucial points of this move are:

First, shadow clone.

Secondly, the main body and the two shadow clones attack at the same time, with priorities, feints, and confusing vision, and you need to grasp the timing and angle.

First, use one hand to form seals and perform the Shadow Clone Technique. This technique alone is very useful.

Xing Xiaxiu was practicing swordsmanship all day.

The status bar refreshes once every seven days, so you must hurry.

After all, he might go on a mission at any time, so there's no way he could practice for seven days.

The next day, Konoha 36, ​​September 9nd.

Xing Xiaxiu leads the team on a mission again.

After leaving the village, Inuzuka Ling couldn't help but ask: "Captain, Tsunade-sama and the others are a jonin team, do they still need our protection?"

Although he considers himself an elite, Inuzuka Ryo is very self-aware. He knows that he is only an elite among the Chunins, and is far inferior to the Jonins.

Yes, Xingxia Xiu’s mission this time is to follow Tsunade and the others.

Tsunade and the others are responsible for going to the Land of Hot Springs to connect with the ninjas of the Sora Ninja Village.

The purpose is to take away the person who planned to steal Konoha's secret technique from the Sky Ninja.

This is the result of Sarutobi Hiruzen holding the Sora Ninja Village accountable.

But both parties knew very well that the so-called planner was probably just a random substitute.

In Danzo's opinion, the Empty Ninja Village is so insincere that they have to be on guard.

In addition, he had another purpose in sending out the Xingxiaxiu team.
