Return home. Qing Ming sat upright for a while, and then began to pack up his equipment. Although we are leaving tomorrow, the equipment can be prepared early, so we won’t be in a hurry then, and we can check for any leaks and make up for them later. Taking the ninja tool bag, Qing Ming began to put things in it. There are six kunai, fifteen shurikens, a roll of steel wire, five detonating charms, a jar of ointment for treating trauma, two rolls of bandages, three commonly used detoxification pills, and a pack of military food pills. As for other things such as maps, Furukawa will bring them, so he doesn't need to worry about them. After doing this, Qing Ming began to seize the time to practice. It just so happened that he didn't have to go on a mission today, so he could complete his training early, and then he would be able to reserve chakra for tomorrow's mission. Although it is just a simple task of suppressing bandits, it still requires leaving the village, so Qing Ming will not be careless. Now is the time of war, and there are countless enemy ninjas infiltrated into the Land of Fire.
Although their main mission is to destabilize the Country of Fire, attack logistical transportation lines, assassinate important figures, and collect intelligence, who knows if they will be killed casually after encountering them. No matter how powerful Furukawa is, he is only a jounin. If he is surrounded by others, he cannot save their lives. Of course, the greater possibility is that the two sides will not meet. This way, they can complete their tasks with peace of mind. But what if? Qing Ming never places his hopes on luck, so preparations must be made. It is unrealistic to learn new ninjutsu on the fly, and it is impossible to upgrade the ninjutsu you have already learned in such a short period of time. The biggest trump card, the Sharingan, cannot be awakened just by awakening. Therefore, in addition to equipment, the most important thing is to ensure that there is sufficient chakra in the body before departure. This requires him to complete today's practice as soon as possible before he can reserve chakra for tomorrow's actions. With this thought, Qingming closed his eyes and began to refine chakra. Time passes minute by minute. The room gradually became quiet, leaving only the sound of Qing Ming's subtle breathing. ······ The next day. morning. A moment before ten o'clock, Qingming arrived at the door of Konoha. From a distance, he saw Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko. These two people were also fully armed today, but their spirits were not as good as yesterday.
Seeing Qing Ming coming over, Liang Jie forced a smile, covered his mouth and yawned, then said: "Why are you here so early today?" Qing Ming did not answer this question, but asked instead: "Looking at the two of you, did you not sleep well last night?" Hearing Qing Ming's inquiry, Mizutani Shizuko, who had panda eyes, lowered her head in embarrassment, and Ryousuke also said casually: "No, it's nothing." Obviously, they didn't want Qing Ming to know their embarrassment. After all, Qing Ming looks the same as usual, even more energetic. This makes them feel somewhat inferior. Just when the three of them had different thoughts, Furukawa's figure appeared in front of them. "Teacher!"×3 Qing Ming and the others greeted. "Um." Furukawa nodded and glanced over the three of them, taking note of their status, but he didn't say anything more and just asked: "Are all the equipment ready?" "alright." The three of them replied in unison. "Okay, let's set off now." After saying that, he immediately ran towards the outside of the village. Upon seeing this, Qing Ming and others immediately followed. During the journey, no one spoke. Ryousuke and Mizutani Shizuko, who were still a little worried, gradually calmed down during this boring journey. ······ A few hours later. It's getting dark. A few hundred meters away from Xiaoheishan, Qing Ming and others stopped. After driving for such a long distance continuously without resting along the way, although the overall speed was not fast, everyone was very tired. Well. To be more precise, Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko were so exhausted, especially Mizutani Shizuko, that they were almost paralyzed from exhaustion. Among the four, she is the weakest. If it wasn't for the strength of faith that held him up, he might have collapsed long ago. Needless to say, Furukawa, this level of exercise is nothing to a jounin. After Qing Ming's physique improved a little, it was beyond that of ordinary people. Coupled with the abundant chakra, there was nothing serious except for a slight heavy breathing.
As for Ryosuke The situation is slightly better than that of Shizuko Mizutani, and he still has some strength left, but when it comes to fighting, it will be too difficult for him. Fortunately, Furukawa did not frantically ask them to suppress the bandits immediately, otherwise Qing Ming would have to do it alone. After stopping, Furukawa glanced at the three of them and said, "Seize the time to rest. We will start executing the mission in two hours." Hearing this, Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko sat down on the ground. The two opened their ninja tool bags, each took out a soldier's food pill and stuffed it into their mouths, bit it into pieces, swallowed it, and then began to seize the time to rest. Qing Ming also swallowed a soldier's grain pill, but instead of resting, he climbed up to the treetops, took out a monocular telescope before nightfall, and observed the direction of Xiaoheishan. This telescope was specially bought by him this morning. He has no detection ninjutsu, so he can only use this for now. As for Furukawa, why should he be so careful? The reason is very simple. Gu Chuan had said on the way that after arriving here, he would no longer provide any opinions or suggestions, nor would he take action during the mission. Everything would depend on themselves. That is why Qing Ming was so careful. Fortunately, the bandits did not get the news of his arrival and took the initiative to attack. During the time he was observing, they stayed safely on the mountain. What? How could the bandits get this news? That's hard to say. What if Gu Chuan wanted to increase the difficulty of the mission and deliberately leaked the information, then the other party would know. For a senior ninja, it is not difficult to do this without telling them. Fortunately, Gu Chuan is not so crazy. In fact, Qing Ming misunderstood the other party. Gu Chuan pays more attention to the students' practical ability and wants to train them as soon as possible, so that they have a better chance of survival in the future battlefield. But he will also consider the students' tolerance. Obviously, apart from Qingming, Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko have already reached their limits both psychologically and physically under heavy pressure, so there is no need to do anything unnecessary. Therefore, after seeing Qingming's actions, even Furukawa, who usually appears serious, couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Obviously, he had guessed Qingming's thoughts. 'By the way, am I so crazy? ' Furukawa recalled what he had done and said to himself, "It seems not...!" However, he admired Qingming even more. It's okay to practice hard, but the key is not to be arrogant or impatient, and to do things seriously and carefully.
No matter when and where, being cautious is a must for ninjas. If you have to choose the one who is most likely to survive the battlefield from the three, Furukawa will definitely choose Qingming. Because his personality determines the highest chance of survival. As for strength? Sorry, in that battlefield that is like a meat grinder, even a jonin may not be able to save his life, let alone a genin? "Hey, I hope everyone can survive!" With a sigh, Furukawa withdrew his gaze from Qingming, and flashed to another big tree, looking into the distance. His eyes seemed to pass through the mountains and forests, and saw the ninjas from various villages fighting on the front line.
