Naruto: Can't learn ninjutsu? I'll just practice immortality!

Taking advantage of the rest time after completing the task, Asakawa Naoki grabbed a handful of Qi-replenishing herbs and swallowed them directly.

The herbs entered his stomach and were quickly transformed into a large amount of essence under the tempering of the Essence Fire, and then transformed into mana according to the veins of the Basic Qi Refining Technique.

What Danzo said was indeed right, medicine is three-point poison.

Although these Qi-replenishing herbs can promote the growth of chakra, they can only be taken in small quantities. Even ninjas from large ninja clans dare not take too much to prevent sequelae.

But Asakawa Naoki is different from them. He has the Essence Fire in his body!

The Essence Fire is not ordinary fire, but the flame produced by igniting the essence.

Although it is not as good as Amaterasu in fighting the enemy, it can be integrated into the body to help Asakawa Naoki digest food very quickly and produce a large amount of essence.

In front of the Essence Fire, the harmful substances in the herbs are directly burned into gaseous particles and expelled directly from the body with Asakawa Naoki's breathing.

Feeling the mana constantly filling in the dantian, Asakawa Naoki felt a sense of satisfaction.

As he continued to take medicinal herbs to refine his spirit, a night had passed quietly.

When it became bright outside the tent again, the bag of medicinal herbs was already mostly empty.

Asakawa Naoki felt that his dantian was like a balloon, and the mana inside had expanded to the extreme, as if he could break through to the spirit refining stage in the next second.

He had this feeling of breaking through in the second half of the night, and after that he took a lot of medicinal herbs, but he just couldn't break through.

Now his mana has reached the breakthrough requirements, but for some reason he can't break through.

"Maybe I still lack a little opportunity to break through." Asakawa Naoki sighed.

"Forget it, the more anxious you are, the less likely you are to break through."

"It's better to calm down, maybe you will break through someday."

Asakawa Naoki stretched his body, and he felt energetic even after not sleeping all night. Maybe when his cultivation level is higher in the future, he can use cultivation instead of sleep.

"Asakawa, it's time for us to carry out the mission." Rope Tree shouted outside the tent.

"Got it, I'll be there soon." Asakawa Naoki nodded, thought about it and finally took the remaining small packages of herbs with him, and took some special-grade ration pills.

"Teacher will take us to carry out this mission together." Rope Tree said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade were all there for this mission, which can be said to be foolproof.

"I didn't expect that the teacher and the others would be free." Asakawa Naoki also asked curiously.

Because of the joining of the Sand Ninja, Konoha, which was fighting against two ninja villages at the same time, fell into anxiety. The powerful Orochimaru and the other two were always very busy and had almost no time to take them. Unexpectedly, they took them on a mission together today.

"Well, I heard that it seems to be going to the Rain Country to eliminate a Rain Ninja base." Rope Tree said.

"Rain Country?" Asakawa Naoki nodded.

In the past six months, their team has basically accepted missions to fight against the Sand Ninja.

Because the Rain Ninjas are weak now, in order to further strike the Rain Ninjas and force them to surrender, the battlefields of Konoha and Rain Ninjas basically have to move to the interior of the Rain Country.

When entering the interior of the Rain Country to do missions, you will often encounter civilians from the Rain Country.

Although his hands are stained with the blood of hostile ninjas, war is like this, and Asakawa Naoki does not want to be stained with the blood of civilians.

That's why he chose to fight the Sand Ninjas.

"Naoki, don't blame yourself. Teacher Orochimaru and his friends will try to choose small roads and avoid innocent civilians." Naoki explained.

After half a year of war, Naoki is no longer the innocent child he was half a year ago.

However, although the innocence has been worn away, the kindness in his heart has not disappeared. Naoki knows very well what Asakawa Naoki is thinking, because he also doesn't want to hurt innocent civilians.

In the final analysis, the most tragic people in the Ninja World War are not the ninjas, but the civilians who cannot decide their own fate.

"I know." Naoki Asakawa said.

That's why he wants to change this deformed world.

Arriving at the gathering place, Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade were wearing black combat uniforms with a layer of armor on the outside. Uchiha Mikoto's team and Namikaze Minato's team had already arrived, leaving only Asakawa Naoki and his team.

In addition to Orochimaru and his disciples, there were also several Konoha ninja teams here, probably to carry out the mission together.

"Okay, everyone is here." Orochimaru looked at Asakawa Naoki and others behind him.

"Let's go!"

"Yes! Lord Orochimaru!"

The surrounding ninjas said in unison, and it was obvious that Orochimaru was leading the mission this time.

A group of twenty people broke into the Rain Country, and with the assistance of a Hyuga branch ninja in charge of reconnaissance, the journey was very smooth.

In a place near the Konoha front line in the Rain Country, the Hyuga ninja found the target.

"The target is in that buildingThere are thirteen ninjas in the house, three of whom have more chakra and are suspected to be jonins. "Hyuga ninja reported.

"Okay, Tsunade, you take your disciples, as well as Naoki, Oki and Hyuga Okada to stay here and be responsible for alerting possible enemies around." Orochimaru began to assign tasks.

"Jiraiya, you and me, and Naoki, each deal with a jonin." Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya and Asakawa Naoki and said:

"Naoki, you can hold the opponent first and wait for our support."

"The rest of you will deal with the other rain ninjas in a small team, and you must resolve the battle quickly!"

"Yes! Lord Orochimaru!"

After assigning the tasks, with Orochimaru's order, except for Tsunade and the others who were responsible for alerting, the surrounding Konoha ninjas rushed to the house.

"Not good, enemy attack! ”

With the sneak attack of the Konoha ninja, the unguarded Rain Ninja was directly suppressed by the Konoha ninja who had more people and stronger strength.

Asakawa Naoki held a katana and fought with a Rain Ninja jonin holding a kunai. With his powerful strength and speed, plus the combat experience he had gained in the past six months, he directly suppressed the opponent and made him unable to escape, let alone use ninjutsu.

If nothing unexpected happened, he could deal with this Rain Ninja jonin with swordsmanship alone.

But for some reason, Asakawa Naoki always felt something was weird.

Why do these Rain Ninjas in front of him wear gas masks on their mouths?

Some Rain Ninjas wear gas masks because of the salamander poison sac in Hanzo's body, which will spray the poison gas of salamander when breathing.

But, Hanzo is obviously not here, so he should not be afraid of the toxicity of salamander. Wearing a gas mask will only reduce his strength in vain.

"Wait, Hanzo? !"

Asakawa Naoki suddenly remembered something, felt a chill on his back, and instinctively used magic.

"Shrink the earth into an inch! "

The next moment, Naoki Asakawa appeared several meters away.

And at his original position, Hanzo, who had just condensed from a ball of water and was wearing a breathing mask, held a sickle and cut Naoki Asakawa's afterimage in half.

If Naoki Asakawa had not dodged in time, it would have been Naoki Asakawa himself who was cut in half.
