Chapter 48 - 48 Rotation

Time flies. In the blink of an eye, another week passed. After these days of recuperation, the injury on Seimei's chest had healed, and Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko's bodies had also returned to normal. Seimei had received orders that starting from tomorrow, their Seventeenth Squad would resume normal missions. In other words, today was the last day of his free training. Under the shade of a tree. Seimei opened his eyes, felt the chakra in his body become full again, nodded with satisfaction, and then said silently: "Panel!" The next moment, the familiar light blue screen appeared in his vision: [Name: Uchiha Seimei Age: 11 years old Physique: 7 Spirit: 9 Chakra: 3510 (5026→5027) Bloodline: Sharingan - Single Tomoe (112/1000) → (160/1000) Skills: Chakra Refinement Technique: lv3 (664/1000) → lv3 (762/1000) Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique: lv2 (11/500) → lv2 (21/500) Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique: lv2 (7/500) → lv2 (101/500) Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique: lv2 (2/500) → lv2 (10/500) Magic: Binding Technique: lv1 (105/200) → lv1 (110/200) Body Flicker Technique: lv2 (234/500) → lv2 (375/500) Shadow Clone Technique: lv0 (5/100) *Konoha-Style Kenjutsu: lv2 (1/500) → lv2 (315/500) Heart Reflection Technique: lv4 (6/2000) → lv4 (186/2000) Shurikenjutsu: lv3 (210/1000) → lv3 (570/1000) Chakra Control: lv3 (131/1000) → lv3 (150/1000) Three Body Techniques: lv3 (0/0)] It could be seen that in the past week, his 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu' had improved a lot, and the proficiency had changed from lv2 (1/500) to lv2 (315/500). Now, Seimei was confident that he could suppress the two Iwa-nin Chuunin who besieged him that night more than ten days ago with just his swordsmanship. If his 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu' could be promoted to lv3, he could even kill them forcefully. Unfortunately, history could not be repeated. Moreover, those two people had already been killed by him. Shaking his head secretly, Seimei turned his gaze to 'Shurikenjutsu'. It could be seen that in just over ten days, its proficiency had increased by 360 points, which was undoubtedly very fast at the lv3 level. The reason for this was very simple, that is, he secretly opened his Sharingan for assistance. Although he didn't want his Sharingan to be exposed to others too early, he wouldn't give up eating for fear of choking. As long as he was sure the risk was controllable, Seimei didn't mind using it. And the increase in proficiency in 'Shurikenjutsu' also gave him a deeper understanding of this skill. Although it didn't reach the level of qualitative change, the threat to the enemy undoubtedly increased a bit. The growth of strength was accumulated bit by bit like this. Withdrawing his gaze, Seimei looked at the bloodline column. It had been two months since he opened his eyes, and he had only accumulated 160 proficiency points in total. Even if he was patient, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious now. In order to speed up the evolution of the Sharingan, during the past twelve days of recuperation, he had invested almost two-thirds of his chakra in the practice of the 'Heart Reflection Technique'. But even so, it didn't increase the evolution speed of the Sharingan much. According to the current progress, Seimei estimated that it would take at least ten months for the Sharingan to evolve to the two tomoe stage. Although this time was one-third shorter than the original one year and four months, it was still a bit long, and Seimei couldn't wait that long. Fortunately, his 'Chakra Refinement Technique' was about to be upgraded. Now, its proficiency was lv3 (762/1000). If the next mission was not too heavy and he could squeeze out eight hours a day to practice, then in just one month, Seimei could upgrade it to lv4. At that time, the amount of chakra he could use every day would increase. In this way, he could use more chakra to practice the 'Heart Reflection Technique', thereby speeding up the evolution of the Sharingan. In addition, now his 'Heart Reflection Technique' was only lv4, and every five proficiency points could increase the evolution progress of the Sharingan by one point. But when it was promoted to lv5, the effect would definitely be improved. At that time, the evolution progress of his Sharingan would be almost halfway through. In other words, for the remaining half, the evolution speed would be further increased. Seimei roughly calculated that it would only take about four or five months for his Sharingan to evolve from single tomoe to double tomoe. Although this time was still not short, it was already much less than one year and four months or ten months. After figuring this out, Seimei let out a long sigh of relief, and his slightly anxious heart gradually calmed down. Closing the panel, Seimei didn't waste any more time and continued today's training. ... Clang~ Clang~ Land of Rain. Northeast. On a small country road, hundreds of fully armed Konoha ninjas were escorting a dozen carts of supplies, slowly moving forward. And Seimei was one of these hundreds of ninjas. However, his face didn't look too good. He couldn't help it. Originally, he was hoping to get a relatively leisurely mission, upgrade the 'Chakra Refinement Technique' to lv4, and speed up the evolution of the Sharingan. As a result, the base camp directly sent them to the front line to change shifts at a certain stronghold. Come on! This was the front line! The danger level of the mission was no less than that of lurking and infiltration. Because they were far away from the base camp, they definitely couldn't get timely and effective support, so if they encountered danger, they could only rely on themselves. Ordinary dangers were fine, whether they lived or died depended on their own strength. But if they encountered irresistible dangers, then it would really be a situation where even heaven and earth couldn't help them, and it could easily lead to a complete annihilation. The risks involved were self-evident. For a moment, Seimei even wanted to leave. But considering his own strength, he finally gave up this dangerous idea. After all, it was good to stay under the shade of a big tree. Before his strength reached the Kage level, it was better not to go solo. The dangers of the ninja world were not just on the surface. If he was ambushed while walking outside, there would really be no place to cry. So, it was better to be stable. Now, Seimei only hoped that the stronghold he was going to wasn't that important. In this way, as long as he was cautious, it shouldn't be a problem to safely spend the one-month rotation period. Of course, if he really encountered dangers beyond his tolerance, he would decisively run away. Seimei would not sacrifice himself for Konoha. ... Time passed by. In the blink of an eye, three days passed. The ambush halfway that Seimei was worried about didn't happen, and they arrived at their destination smoothly. This was a small town with ruins and broken walls everywhere. The road was also bumpy, and the traces left by earth-style ninjutsu could be vaguely seen. As for people... Except for the Konoha ninjas who came to meet them, there was no one else. The original residents of the town, except for those who fled at the beginning of the war, most of the rest had become corpses. Walking on the street, Seimei could clearly smell the rotten smell of corpses from the collapsed houses on both sides. As the saying goes, when immortals fight, mortals suffer. Most of these corpses buried in the houses and buildings on both sides were affected by the battles between ninjas, which could be said to be an undeserved disaster. Ninja wars never just affected ninjas, but also thousands of ordinary people.
