Hearing his question, Shizuko Mizutani cried even more sadly. From her intermittent narration, Qingming knew that it turned out that Furukawa was alone to cover the retreat of the entire team, and was eventually killed by two Iwagakure jonins. As for Ryosuke, he sacrificed himself simply to protect Shizuko Mizutani. When they were retreating, they were unlucky and encountered a team of Iwagakure chunin. In order to protect Shizuko Mizutani, Ryosuke fought desperately, but the gap in strength could not be easily eliminated by fighting desperately. In the end, the two were defeated by the four opponents, and Ryosuke died on the spot. Afterwards, if a Konoha jonin happened to pass by and helped Shizuko Mizutani, the opponent would probably have died. Qingming glanced at Shizuko Mizutani, and then he found that the opponent did have a lot of injuries. From these injuries alone, it is not difficult to see how critical the situation was at that time.
At this time, Qingming was thinking, if he had not carried out the mission of sneaking into the Rock Ninja base, would it be better to stay with them? After thinking for a while, Qingming had the answer - in terms of the result alone, it would definitely be better. With his current strength, it is too difficult to save Furukawa, not to mention that he can definitely save Furukawa, after all, the enemy is two real jonin. But it is more than enough to save the lives of Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko. The four Iwagakure Chunin are not his opponents, even if they join forces. But taking a step back, he can't be their nanny for life. Not to mention his care for the two during the missions on weekdays, he took a lot of risks to save the two when he encountered the ambush and night attack of the Rock Ninja. Qingming thought he had done enough. If there was still a problem in this situation, it could only be blamed on their bad luck. Therefore, Qingming did not feel guilty about the death of Ryosuke and Furukawa, at most he felt a little regretful. "Strength, still need to improve strength as soon as possible!" Qingming made up his mind secretly. Ryosuke's death, in the final analysis, was due to his own lack of strength, otherwise he would have survived safely even if he encountered danger. Therefore, strength is the root of everything. With this thought, Qingming no longer wasted time, comforted Mizutani Shizuko, sent her to the medical ninja, and after completing the initial treatment, he began to practice on his own. ······ A few hours later. It was dawn. With the sound of rolling wheels, the ninjas who came to replace them arrived at the town base. After the two sides completed the handover, Qingming and others began to rush to the base camp. There were 120 people when they came, and less than 50 people when they returned. The death rate was close to 60%, which was cruel.
Among the surviving ninjas, most of them were middle and upper ninjas, and there were few lower ninjas at all. Otherwise, how can we say that lower ninjas are cannon fodder on the battlefield? Of course, this time there was a special situation. Generally speaking, the death rate of ninjas rotating on the front line is not as terrible as 60%. At least, a single rotation cannot reach this level. On the way. The atmosphere of the team was a bit dull. Qingming glanced at Mizutani Shizuko beside him. After several hours of recuperation, the other party's condition has improved a lot, but judging from her expression, she should not have been able to get out of the shadow of the death of her teacher and companions. Qingming had no good solution for this, and could only hope to rely on time to erase all this. Time passed by minute by minute, and the team moved forward at a moderate speed. Without the supplies that needed to be escorted, their speed could have been faster, but there were too many wounded in the team, so they had to slow down. Despite this, they returned to the base camp before dark. The mission report did not need to be worried about by him, a ninja. After returning to the base camp, Qingming started to practice non-stop. It happened that there was a long vacation this time, and he could first practice the "Chakra Refining Technique" to level 4. ······· Two days later. Late at night. In the tent. Qingming suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of joy. After two days of practice, his 'Chakra Refining Technique' was finally promoted from lv3 to lv4. "Next, let's see how effective it is." Muttering, Qingming closed his eyes again and began to meditate and refine chakra. It would have been fine if he hadn't refined it, but once he did, Qingming noticed the difference. If at lv3, he was using a small water pipe to extract the physical and mental energy contained in his body when he was running the 'Chakra Refining Technique'. Then now, a high-pressure pump has been added to this water pipe, and the extraction speed has been greatly increased. An hour later. Qingming opened his eyes, opened the panel and took a look - the chakra increased by 800 points.
At lv3, this number was 400 points. In other words, when the 'Chakra Refining Technique' was upgraded to lv4, his chakra recovery speed doubled. In this way, he can spend more time on the practice of ninjutsu and other skills. Before, when he had not learned the "Konoha Style Sword Art", he did not have to worry about the problem of insufficient time, after all, it did not take much time to perform a ninjutsu. All he had to worry about was whether he had enough chakra. But when he learned the "Konoha Style Sword Art", especially after he had mastered it to level 3, he had to pay attention. Although practicing this technique does not require too much chakra, if you want to accumulate proficiency, you must practice it over and over again. This process takes a lot of time. So, for Qingming, this time-saving effect is just right. In addition, there is the most important chakra recovery. Before his physical attribute unexpectedly broke through 8 points, he could only use 3500 chakras a day, and when it broke through 8 points, this number became 4200. Qingming had estimated that this number would increase after the "Chakra Refining Technique" was promoted to level 4. Now it seems that his estimate is correct. Although it has not been tested in detail, based on the one-hour practice just now, he can already estimate a rough value - 5500. Yes, it is 5500 points. This number is 1300 points higher than the previous value. If all these chakras are used in the practice of "Reflection Heart Technique", points of proficiency can be obtained. And five points of proficiency can increase the evolution of his Sharingan by one point. In other words, his Sharingan can gain an average of points of proficiency every day in the future. This will undoubtedly increase the speed of his Sharingan's evolution once again. The only regret is that his basic attributes have not changed, his potential has long been tapped, and his chakra limit can only increase slowly over time. Otherwise, he would know how many points of chakra limit can be increased in one hour by running the lv4 "Chakra Refining Technique". According to the rule of doubling the increase three times in the past, this time it should increase from eight points per hour to sixteen points. In this way, his basic attributes will be improved in the future, and his potential can be realized in the shortest time.
