Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Well, let's go here!"

A minute later, Qingming came to a rocky beach and nodded.

This was the place he saw when he was observing the surroundings on the boat just now, and it was just right for him to stay.

Although with his current chakra, he could stand on the sea for 24 hours without any problem, but he still felt safer than standing on the ground.

However, he still needed to rest a little on the rocks under his feet, otherwise they would hurt him.

With this thought, Qingming said to a shadow clone next to him: "You come!"

Hearing this, the shadow clone didn't waste any words, and after a few leaps, he left the rocky beach and came to the sea not far away.

Then he made seals with his hands and instantly performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Wind Blade!

The next moment, a transparent wind blade about several meters long flew out and cut towards the rocks close to the sea surface.

Immediately, the rocks were like tofu, and were easily cut by the wind blade, separating the upper and lower parts.

As the upper reef slid down and fell into the sea, a flat cross-section surface was exposed below.

Afterwards, this shadow clone did the same thing, adjusted its own position, and performed the "Wind Style: Wind Blade" several times in succession, and finally leveled out a fairly spacious area.

Qingming and the eight shadow clones stood on it, feeling particularly at ease.

Without wasting time, after finding a foothold, Qingming directly gave instructions to the eight shadow clones, asking them to practice a skill each.

The shadow clones inherited his temperament, and also did not waste words, and directly took the order and left.

Then they were seen in the nearby sea area, thinking about and practicing the skills assigned to them by Qingming.

After a while, various ninjutsu effects appeared on the surrounding sea surface.

Seeing this scene, Qingming nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he no longer paid attention to these shadow clones, found a place for himself, sat cross-legged, and began his own practice.

He alternately performed the ‘Palm Immortal Technique’ and the ‘Reflection Heart Technique’, and Qingming silently strengthened his body and spirit.

This practice lasted for a whole morning.

Unknowingly, the sun had already come to the top of his head.

The scorching sun shone on his body, making Qingming feel dry and thirsty.

He temporarily stopped practicing, took the water bag beside him, and drank a big mouthful of water, and then he exhaled a long breath.

Standing up, Qingming looked at the endless sea, which was empty, and Uchiha Tiehuo and others had long disappeared.

However, since the shadow clone did not send back any news, it meant that they were not in danger.

In this case, he would no longer pay too much attention to it.

As for the traces of the Mist Ninja,

this time he came out with the team, originally to try his luck, and now only one morning has passed, it is normal that he did not find the traces of the other party.

Qingming was not in a hurry.

Retracting his thoughts, Qingming moved his body, and when he felt that it was almost done, he took out a handkerchief from the ninja bag.

After opening it, there were dozens of Bingliang pills inside.

Qingming took out three, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them casually for a few times, and swallowed them.

To be honest, Bingliang pills don't taste very good.

Although it can supplement the various nutrients needed by the human body, no ninja would choose to eat it if conditions permit.

Qingming has become accustomed to this taste, so he can swallow it without changing his expression.

Time passed by minute by minute.

After a while, Qingming felt that his physical strength began to recover, so he stopped wasting time and entered the state of cultivation again.

In this way, time passed slowly, and the sun gradually moved from the middle to the west.

······

Afternoon.

Near dusk.

In the sky, in the sunset, Uchiha Tiehuo and others drove a small boat back to this place.

Before they got close, Qingming opened his eyes.

Then, on the boat, the shadow clone responsible for communication exploded with a "bang", turned into a ball of chakra smoke, and returned to Qingming's body.

The next moment, a memory emerged in Qingming's mind.

This was exactly the memory of the shadow clone that day.

Qingming closed his eyes and quickly browsed the information.

After a moment, he opened his eyes and shook his head.

From the shadow clone's memory, he already knew that they had not seen a single living person, let alone a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, all day.

This made Qingming somewhat glad that he did not follow them, otherwise he would have wasted a day in vain.

The boat approached, and Qingming dodged and jumped onto the bow.

Seeing him coming, Uchiha Tiehuo opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Qingming interrupted him and said, "I already know the situation, let's go back now!"

"Okay!"

Uchiha Tiehuo responded muffledly, and then ordered his men to turn the bow and sail towards the direction of Eagle's Beak Cliff.

At the same time, Qingming released the 'Shadow Clone Technique'.

The next moment, a large amount of practice experience and memories poured into his mind, causing him to rub his temples.

Then, he came to the stern, sat cross-legged, and began to digest those practice experiences and memories, turning them into a little bit of proficiency behind the corresponding skills.

Of course, Qingming did not accept the memory infusion of a whole day, but the practice experience and memory of the shadow clone in about an hour.

This is also the frequency of digesting the practice results of the shadow clone during his normal practice.

Only this kind of continuous iteration can maximize the effectiveness of the proficiency panel and practice skills more efficiently.

Otherwise, the efficiency will be too low.

Qingming once tried to release the shadow clone, let it practice for a whole day, and then absorb the practice experience and memory at one time.

In this way, although it is much more convenient, after converting it into proficiency, it is only a theoretical value, that is, one-fourth to one-fifth of the main body when practicing with the help of the proficiency panel, the effect is not bad.

Correspondingly, when he shortened this interval, the ratio immediately increased.

Finally, after detailed testing and analysis, Qingming finally achieved a balance point in practice efficiency and time cost, that is, one hour interval.

Without the assistance of the proficiency panel, one hour is almost the limit of his qualifications.

During this period of time, there is no obvious difference between practicing skills with the shadow clone and practicing with the main body.

In this way, as long as it is refreshed every hour at this frequency, the relevant practice experience and memory are converted into proficiency in time, so that he has the latest understanding of the skill, then he can practice with the highest efficiency.

It is precisely because of this that he can practice so many skills at the same time and catch up with or even surpass those geniuses with mediocre qualifications.
