Senior Brother of Konoha

After receiving the news of the special disciple, Naruto rekindled his fighting spirit and vowed to make great contributions to Konoha.

But the problem is, with his current ability, how can he easily seize the opportunity to make meritorious deeds?

So, until then, he had to continue his boring and monotonous life.

In the morning, I read and wrote in the academy, and listened to my senior brothers telling me about the heroic deeds of Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other three masters. Occasionally, my senior brothers would teach me breathing techniques and some basic techniques.

In the afternoon, after finishing the heavy chores, he would take time to go to the notice board in Fountain Square to pick up some simple tasks.

Such as gathering fruits and vegetables, hunting hares, driving wild boars, etc.

These are simple tasks issued by residents, but because Konoha Town and Konoha Sect are integrated, after completion, you can also get 1 to 3 points of division contribution, as well as a few copper coins as a reward.

Copper plates were of no use to Naruto because no one was willing to trade with him, so he could only use his disciples' contributions to exchange for items that he could not support himself, such as coarse salt.

Fortunately, there is another place where copper plates can be used, and that is Uncle Ichiraku's ramen restaurant.

It is also a good choice to improve your life and eavesdrop on some potentially useful information from other people's discussions.

At night, all the other children went to bed, but Naruto couldn't sleep yet.

Because he still had to cut firewood, he went to the small river in Chailin to check the shrimp pots, and there were many things to do.

If it rains suddenly, he will have to brace himself even more.

There are many and big mushrooms after the rain. One kilogram can be exchanged for 3 points of teacher contribution, which is the most cost-effective.

He could not go home until about 9 p.m., but instead of resting, he could meditate and practice breath-taking.

.

Practitioners in Naruto Continent must cultivate true essence before they can use various spells.

The cultivation of true essence comes from the breathing technique.

There are high and low levels of breathing skills.

The highest level is the heavenly level, which can increase the speed of true energy cultivation by 3 times.

The lowest level is the low-level yellow level, which can increase the speed of true energy cultivation by 1%.

The Konoha Heart Technique practiced by the outer disciples of the Konoha Sect is initially a low-grade Xuan level, which can increase the speed of true energy cultivation by 4% to 40%.

The handyman disciples can only practice the breathing technique without any level.

In addition to the level of breathing skills, what affects the speed of true energy cultivation is also the level of spiritual roots.

The handyman disciples of the same class as him, whose spiritual roots are above the true spiritual root, can cultivate more than 6 years of true essence in the past 10 years.

Guys like Nara Shikamaru, who are smart, have high-level spiritual roots, and have family secrets to assist their cultivation, are said to have had more than 13 years of true energy.

Where is Naruto?

The spiritual root level is a pitiful seven-color waste spiritual root, and he is practicing a non-level breathing technique without any bonus.

So in the past 6 years, no matter how hard he worked, he had only been able to cultivate the true essence for less than 3 years.

If he continues like this, he will be completely ruined in four years at most.

Because the entire spiritual practice world knows that practice should be done as early as possible. When women are 14 and men are 16, when the Tiankui arrives and the kidney qi is strong, trying to practice again is like asking for fish in a tree.

As the days passed, Naruto, who still couldn't see any signs of meritorious service, gradually despaired, thinking that it would never be possible to become a special disciple and join the Konoha Gate.

But one day half a month later, an unexpected incident gave him hope again.

.

At noon, Ichiraku Ramen House.

"Hey, Izumo, what do you think about Mizuki not taking the main entrance when he defected?"

The speaker was Gang Zitie, a disciple of the inner sect of Konoha Gate. He usually partners with Kamizuki Izumo and is responsible for the defense of the main gate of Konoha Gate and the work of welcoming guests.

"What are you thinking about when you go through the front door? Steel Iron, no matter whether they are enemies or traitors of Konoha Gate, no one ever goes through the front door, okay?"

"Then tell me, why don't they go through the main entrance?"

"Probably the same reason you refused to take off the tape on your nose."

"cut"

"Speaking of which, instead of discussing this, we might as well discuss how to capture Mizuki."

"To retrieve the sealed book that was stolen by him?"

"yes"

.

Naruto could hear the quiet discussion between Gang Zitie and Shenyue Izumo, not because they were not careful enough, but because this was an ability he had developed over a long period of time.

When a person is isolated from everyone, he is bound to develop excellent listening skills.

The news of Mizuki's defection was indeed good news for Naruto.

Not only the Konoha sect, but all sects in the training world hate traitors very much. As long as he can catch the traitor, it will naturally be a great achievement.

Moreover, although I don’t know what the sealed book stolen by Mizuki is, I can figure it out with just a little thought. It is definitely a priceless treasure. If I can find it, my contribution will be greater than catching the traitor Mizuki. Up some.

But it is a pity that Naruto is only a 12-year-old handyman disciple who has only 3 years of less than true energy, and has not learned any techniques yet.

Mizuki, on the other hand, is a senior inner disciple with profound true energy. He has participated in many wars with other countries. He has more experience in hiding and killing people than Naruto has in eating.

Naruto could neither find nor defeat such a Mizuki.

Therefore, even if he knew the news, it would be of no use at all.

.

.

It rained all afternoon, and the pattering of autumn rain was so lingering that it made people feel uneasy.

There is a firewood yard, so the rain will not affect the work of the handyman disciples cutting firewood.

Naruto and other handyman disciples chopped firewood all afternoon and piled it into a hill-like pile of firewood, which looked very spectacular.

Although the practitioners can survive the winter without firewood, their families living in the town do need it. Therefore, after the arrival of autumn, the handyman disciples often have to cut down trees and chop firewood to prepare firewood for the people living in the town for the winter. millet.

In the evening, Fei Zhuqingfeng, the inner disciple who was in charge of supervising the work, announced that today's task was over. Then all the handyman disciples cheered and dropped the hatchets they were using to chop wood, and left the woodyard in small groups.

Naruto silently wiped off the annoying water stains mixed with sweat on his forehead, took the hatchet to Feizhu Dragonfly, bowed and saluted, and whispered: "Brother Feizhu Dragonfly, I don't have enough firewood at home, you can borrow it Grab your hatchet and go to the firewood forest to chop some firewood?"

Naturally, there was enough firewood. He just wanted to go to the firewood forest to pick some mushrooms after the rain. He borrowed the hatchet to guard against the wild boars that came out to look for food after the rain.

Flying Bamboo Dragonfly's parts above his nose are all wrapped in gray-white bandages, even his eyes. He uses his senses to observe the outside world. He treats others very harshly and is not very easy to talk to.

If it were normal times, it would be difficult for Naruto's request to be granted, and he would be subject to severe questioning.

But it was strange today. Flying Bamboo Dragonfly did not question him, but just waved his hand impatiently, signaling Naruto to quickly take the hatchet and leave.

Is it because of Mizuki?

Naruto secretly guessed.

After a day of fermentation, the matter of Mizuki's defection last night became more and more serious. Not only the supervisors and brothers at the firewood yard were concerned, but also the handyman disciples whose elders at home were involved in the pursuit were also discussing the matter enthusiastically.

He heard a lot of interesting things from those people's showing off.

For example, some people say that Mizuki is actually a spy sent by a great traitor named Orochimaru, with the purpose of stealing the sealed book, the treasure of Konoha Gate.

Some people also say that there are many very powerful secrets in the Book of Sealings, which were sealed in the Book of Sealings by successive masters because they were so powerful.

Others say that in the Book of Sealings there is a top-grade immortal skill called the art of multiple shadow clones. Once you learn it, you can create thousands of shadow clones in the blink of an eye, which is incredibly powerful.

Naruto didn't know whether what these people said was true or false, and he had no interest in caring.

For him, the most important thing is to collect more mushrooms in exchange for some contribution from his disciples and get through this winter first.

If possible, it is best to find ways to find opportunities that can truly make meritorious deeds and seize them to become special disciples.

As for the sealed book and the art of multiple shadow clones, they are as far away as the stars in the sky to him.
