Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Become a Jinchuriki? Heh..."

Hearing Shabuku's words, Qingming chuckled twice. Although he didn't answer, the contempt on his face couldn't be concealed.

"Isn't it..."

Seeing this, Shabuku murmured.

Afterward, he intended to say something, but Qingming suddenly interrupted him.

He heard him say, "Alright, the exchange ends here. You can be a tool person in peace."

As he spoke, he extended his right palm and grabbed towards the other party.

Seeing this, Shabuku didn't have time to think, and immediately took two steps back, about to resist.

Indeed, he admitted that he was not Qingming's opponent, and he had not tried to escape or fight back before.

But the situation is different now.

Qingming was about to treat him as a tool person. Although he didn't know what this so-called tool person meant, he could tell from the literal meaning that it was definitely not a good thing.

Therefore, he decisively chose to resist.

At the same time, he also had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Just now, he had already deduced that this place was not far from Takiyin Village through the surrounding terrain, landforms, plant growth conditions, and types.

And this time, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the seal, the village arranged many guards on the periphery.

In this way, as long as he made some noise, he would soon attract the attention of these people.

At that time, gathering the strength of everyone, perhaps he would have a chance of survival.

This was the glimmer of hope in his heart.

In addition, what prompted him to make this decision was the constantly gushing out tailed beast chakra in his body.

Although these chakras were constantly eroding his will, making his mental stress very high, it was undeniable that this was an extremely powerful force.

Perhaps, he could use this power to confront Qingming.

However, his idea was good, but reality was harsh.

The two were not far apart, and Qingming discovered the other party's small movements to resist as soon as they came out.

He didn't have any intention of saving eye power/dōjutsu power either, and activated the Kaleidoscope Sharingan almost immediately.

The Sharingan, like a black sun, instantly appeared in his pupils. Even if Shabuku didn't know what this was, he instinctively looked away.

And this inevitably caused a slight delay in his actions.

And it was these delays that completely deprived him of the opportunity to resist.

'Ame no Minaka' activated!

Qingming's figure disappeared in place instantly.

Immediately afterward, before Shabuku could react, he reappeared and came directly behind him.

'Self-Inflicted Curse Seal' was cast!

Black incantations/spell marks appeared, instantly covering Shabuku's entire body, causing him to freeze in place.

Then, Qingming sent out a palm strike, hitting the back of the other party's neck heavily.

Suddenly, Shabuku only felt a darkness in front of his eyes, and he lost consciousness.

Seeing that he was about to fall from the branch, Qingming reacted quickly and grabbed him, preventing him from falling from the tree.

Carrying Shabuku, Qingming looked back at the direction of Takiyin Village, carefully reviewing the entire process of this operation to see if there were any omissions.

After recalling for a moment, Qingming nodded, not finding any problems.

The previous things will not be mentioned. Even if his disguise as Yuichi Mizutani and his lurking in Takiyin Village were exposed, it could only show that he had premeditated and could not find out his identity based on this.

And in the action just now, although he used 'Ame no Minaka' several times and 'Flying Thunder God Technique' once, he did not leave too obvious flaws.

Among them, 'Ame no Minaka' benefited from his long-term caution, and he has never exposed relevant information. The only actions that may be related to him are related to Kirigakure.

And it is obvious that Kirigakure is unlikely to provide such important information to Takiyin Village.

So, there is no need to worry for the time being.

As for 'Flying Thunder God Technique'...

This may indeed be recognized, but it is just hearsay and not important at all.

In addition, in the previous battle, he deliberately hid his methods. The ninjutsu and some other skills used in several shots had little connection with the Uchiha clan or himself.

Even when he activated the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, he avoided the sight of other people, and used it immediately after opening it, without maintaining it for too long.

In this way, it is almost impossible for others to contact him through these clues.

The only thing that needs attention may be the means he used to restrict the Seven-Tails in the sealing room.

'Self-Inflicted Curse Seal' is not an ordinary sealing technique. If you really want to investigate it in depth, you can still find some clues.

However, as one of Danzo's hidden trump cards, there is not much information leaked to the outside world.

Therefore, Takiyin Village can only find out that this technique originated from Konohagakure.

As for more specific information, it is unlikely to be found.

Even if the result is found in the end, it will probably be a long time later.

By that time, Qingming is estimated to be invincible in the ninja world, so why would he care about these trivial things?

So, in general, this trip was quite satisfactory.

"Hu~~~"

Taking a light breath, Qingming carried Shabuku and cleaned up the traces left by the two.

Then, sensing the Flying Thunder God mark on the island in the southern sea of ​​the Land of Fire, with a thought, he used the 'Flying Thunder God Technique'.

The vision in front of him suddenly changed. In an instant, Qingming returned to the island.

Smelling the slightly humid and salty sea breeze in the air, Qingming only felt comfortable all over.

"Sure enough, this place is comfortable!"

Looking at the familiar environment around him, Qingming couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Immediately afterward, he raised his hand to form a hand seal, and used 'Wind Release: Wind Wing' and 'Chakra Hagoromo/Feather Robe', carrying Shabuku, and flew into the sky, flying towards the deserted island where he once tested the power of 'Wind Release: Rasenshuriken'.

The two islands are not far apart, and Qingming quickly arrived at the destination.

It can be seen that this place is still barren, and the traces left by the last test still exist.

Concentrating his mind, Qingming activated the Byakugan, flapped his wings, and patrolled the surroundings.

After confirming that there was indeed no one around, he landed.

In the center of the island, Qingming stepped on the ground and injected a large amount of Earth Release chakra into it.

After that, the earth shook for a while before stopping.

Qingming opened his eyes, looked at the newly appeared tunnel in front of him, and without any hesitation, immediately took Shabuku and walked in.

Along the way, Qingming quickly came to a spacious underground room.

It was empty inside, with nothing.

This is also normal!

Because the newly appeared tunnel, including the underground room in front of him, was forcibly opened up by him using Earth Release chakra, so naturally there was nothing.

Walking into it, Qingming threw Shabuku on the ground.

Immediately afterward, he took out a sealing scroll from his ninja tool bag, opened it, and took out a writing brush and some ink.

After that, he didn't say a word, and went straight to drawing the spell mark formula/technique of the 'Self-Inflicted Curse Seal' on the ground.

Indeed, he can use 'Self-Inflicted Curse Seal' without hand seal, but that can only temporarily control the enemy, and he needs to constantly input chakra to maintain it.

But if it is engraved on the ground, it can form a relatively stable sealing formation. Although it still needs to inject chakra, it can save a lot of trouble.

Next, for a long time, Shabuku will be sealed in this place until he seals the 'Eight Trigrams Sealing Style', and then combines it with other sealing techniques to create a suitable container for sealing the Seven-Tails, which will end.

And this time will not be too long...

Before that, he can also use Shabuku as an additional source of chakra, coming over to extract it every day.

Just like those 'chakra batteries' he made two years ago...
