Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 47: Clone Cheating
"Shadow Clone No. 1, go practice water escape and catch more fish."

"Main body, why should I go fishing?"

Shadow Clone No. 1 is very individualistic and directly protested against the arrangement made by the original body, Umino Sasuke.

Umino Sasuke immediately asked back, "Then is your metabolism of the food you eat stronger than mine?"

Shadow Clone No. 1 was speechless on the spot. Possessing the same memories, he naturally knew that he, like Uzumaki Naruto's shadow clone, could indeed eat food and go to the toilet. However, the food he ate could only increase his sense of fullness and at most restore a little bit of physical strength. It would be difficult to completely replace the original body's advantage in digesting flesh and blood.

Not to mention the shadow clone, even the wooden clone, the original body's advantage in flesh and blood is irreplaceable.

"Hmph!" Shadow Clone No. 1 snorted coldly. He also knew that what the original said made sense, so he could only practice water escape and catch some fish by the way.

"I finally learned the Shadow Clone Technique. I can use it to enhance my training."

Sasuke Umino was overwhelmed with emotion, feeling that this Shadow Clone Technique was so useful. Not only could it be used to detect traps and obtain intelligence, but it could also provide multiple helpers. It was very useful for both combat cooperation and handling various trivial matters.

More importantly, it can accumulate memory and practice experience, which will enhance your practice.

If the amount of chakra is sufficient and the ability to withstand it is strong enough, it is possible to release a large number of shadow clones, just like Uzumaki Naruto, and cheat in training.

"My master is still eating. Let's quickly deal with these fish on the shore. Otherwise, they won't be so delicious if they die."

Shadow clone No. 1 threw nearly 100 kilograms of freshwater fish bound in the water prison onto the shore. Seeing that the original body was still leisurely eating smoked dried fish, he became furious and felt that he was not a shadow clone, but a cow or a horse.

Umino Sasuke had just finished eating a large amount of smoked fish, and the chakra consumed in his body was quickly restored.

"The art of shadow clone."

Umino Sasuke immediately formed seals with his hands and released another shadow clone.

"Shadow Clone No. 2, practice your swordsmanship and take care of these fish while you're at it."

Sasuke Umino took off the fish-butchering knife from his waist and threw it to Shadow Clone No. 2. At the same time, he took out a small bucket of salt from the sealing scroll.

"Yes, the real body."

Shadow Clone No. 2's personality was extremely cold. Without saying much, he took the fish-cutting knife and started practicing swordsmanship.

Under the flash of swords and the shadow of knives, each freshwater fish was processed cleanly, and the fish meat was marinated with salt to be made into salty smoked dried fish.

"Wow, another cow and horse."

When Shadow Clone No. 1 saw that he had a new partner and was assigned the job of killing and smoking fish, he immediately felt a lot more balanced.

"continue!"

After eating another ten pounds of salty smoked fish, Umino Sasuke, who had been a little wilted just now, felt that he was able to recover, so he released another shadow clone.

In the next few minutes, after eating a large amount of food, he released several shadow clones in succession, totaling to 9.

It's not that he can't release more shadow clones, but considering that after the shadow clone is released, the fatigue impact brought by the shadow clone's memory experience will not be too small, otherwise the technique of multiple shadow clones would not be a forbidden technique.

He knew his own limitations. He was not the thick-skinned Uzumaki Naruto. He had a special physique and was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. He thought that nine shadow clones were almost the limit of what an ordinary person could bear.

Of course, as the Shadow Clone Technique is used more and becomes more proficient, and as the amount of chakra increases in the future, I think I will be able to create more Shadow Clones. I can't imagine having thousands like Uzumaki Naruto, but I should be able to reach hundreds.

If we could achieve further breakthroughs in core technology in the future, we might be able to create a high-tech headgear that could shield us from the aftereffects of Shadow Clones. Even if tens of thousands of Shadow Clones were to be removed simultaneously, the resulting fatigue would be withstood. Now that I have nine Shadow Clones, I can resume practicing things like the Three Body Technique, mechanical manipulation, seal speed, and chakra control.

Of course, the shadow clone is now mainly practicing three water-style ninjutsu and various forms of water-style ninjutsu.

The main body is mainly responsible for digesting food, replenishing chakra and physical strength, and practicing physical skills.

"It's worthy of being called a nutritional tonic. It's much stronger than Nara's secret medicine."

Although Umino Sasuke had not taken out his own cells to the laboratory for comparative research and examination, the subtle feeling coming from his body was already telling him that all the cells in his body had reached saturation, and the activity of the cells in his body was still slowly increasing.

In other words, the physical deficiencies caused by years of excessive training due to eating Bingliang Pills have been basically replenished by nourishment, and the cells are already in a saturated state and have a tendency to develop further.

With the nourishment of a large amount of food energy, the activity of cells in various organs throughout the body will surely be further enhanced in the future, and the strength of the body will continue to increase.

"Fortunately, we are in the Land of Rivers. These rivers have an inexhaustible supply of fish. If it were in Konoha Village, this kind of training method might be able to withstand it physically, but my wallet might not be able to afford it."

I don't know, I was taken aback.

In just one hour of training, he had already consumed nearly fifty kilograms of fish. A bowl of ramen in Konoha Village costs nearly one hundred taels. Fish is a precious meat and will only be more expensive. Let's assume that one kilogram costs one hundred taels, and fifty kilograms of fish is 5000 taels.

You have to practice for at least ten hours a day, which means 5 taels a day, and 150 million taels a month.

"hiss……"

Umino Sasuke gasped.

This is too expensive!
A C-level mission is only worth 1 to 5 taels. He patrols the front line of this battlefield for a period of 10 days, which is equivalent to a C-level mission. As the team leader, he gets the biggest share and can get more than 2 taels.

After completing three C-level tasks in a month, you can get 6 taels, which is 72 taels a year.

72 taels a year makes them a high-income earner no matter how you look at it. Their annual income is enough to buy a single-family house in Konoha Village.

But in comparison, the little money earned from fighting for a year is not even enough for half a month's food expenses. This is terrifying to think about.

No wonder those fat guys in Qiu Dao seem to be very strong, popular, and have many allies, but they are not very high-profile and have been making a fortune quietly. It seems that strength is built up by money.

If he had not mastered the art of infrasonic radar, which allowed him to obtain vast quantities of fish at almost zero cost, he would definitely not be able to continue this way of cultivation and would go bankrupt after only half a month of practice.

"However, it's not good to eat only fish for a long time. You still need to supplement with plenty of carbohydrates and vegetables. Otherwise, the nutrition will be unbalanced and your body will definitely have problems."

Vegetables are easy to get. There are wild vegetables everywhere in these wild mountains and wilderness. As long as you create a shadow clone, you can easily solve the problem. But the intake of carbohydrates is a bit difficult.

It is impossible to spend money to buy food, and I would never buy it even if I die. The price of food on the front line is ridiculously high, only twice as high as that in Konoha Village. That would be a disdain for the conscience of the merchants accompanying the army, and it would also ignore the difficulties and hardships of escorting supplies to the front line.

"Forget it. At worst, I can just use the Sealing Scroll and take some smoked dried fish to exchange for food."

During the Ninja War, food was hard currency. I think these smoked dried fish would be able to sell for a good price on the front line.

Thinking of this, Umino Sasuke's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately realized that this was a good idea for financial management, so he quickly ordered the six shadow clones who were practicing water escape to catch all the fish in the river while practicing.

The main point is what it means to fish out the pond.
