Demon Lord Uchiha

Chapter 68 Traces

Because of the inexplicable activation of the Sharingan, Shingen, who had been sleeping very late, did not fall asleep slowly until the morning. When he woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning.After he washed up, he realized that his friend had disappeared, leaving only a note saying he would be back in the evening.Shingen was in a good mood and was about to go out for a walk. When he opened the door, he found that the apprentice he had accepted on a whim yesterday was already waiting outside.

This made Shingen feel a little ashamed. He was so busy getting excited about opening his eyes that he completely forgot about accepting a disciple.Shingen slapped his forehead and wanted to tell his apprentice, but he was embarrassed to find that he didn't know his name.Looking at the clear eyes of the other party, Shingen introduced himself seriously: "Uchiha Shingen is a ninja from Konoha Ninja Village."

The boy blinked and responded respectfully: "My name is Odagiri Kenji, and I hope to become a hero of justice."

Shingen did not despise Kenji's wish, but asked in a solemn tone: "Your ideal is very great, but if you want to realize it, it will not be easy. Since you want to worship me as your teacher, then I will temporarily As your mentor ninja. Before I train you to become a ninja, I would like to know your age."

Looking at Shingen's serious expression, Kenji swallowed his saliva and said, "I am 6 years old this year. Is there an age limit for becoming a ninja?"

Shingen explained: "There is no age limit for becoming a ninja, but the earlier the better, the more solid the foundation will be, which will be very beneficial to your growth height and speed. Your age is not bad, and you can train as a ninja in Konoha." It probably started around this age, but later than the children of the ninja family."

Kenji asked with some longing: "Can I also become a powerful ninja like Master?"

After hearing Kenji's words, Shingen laughed and said: "I'm not as powerful as you think. Ninjas can be roughly divided into five levels, shadow, jounin, special jounin, chunin and genin. I'm still in At the bottom of the pyramid, people who are stronger than me in this world are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. Now you understand why I say your wish is amazing."

Listening to Shingen's explanation, Kenji opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "How could it be possible? But even so, I will not give up my ideal."

Seeing Kenji's vow, Shingen stopped talking nonsense and began to train Kenji's basic physical strength and hone his will.After all, chakra is the product of a perfect fusion of mental energy and physical energy. Without a strong enough body and will, the chance of failure in refining chakra is very high.

While Shingen was training with Kenji, Marina and Naoki had already completed their investigation of the area near Taoyuan Township. When they returned, they saw Shingen doing leapfrog with the boy from last night.

Naoki came to Shingen and said quietly: "You are really planning to accept him as a disciple, what are you going to do with his family?"

Shingen looked at Kenji who was training and responded: "Of course I will bring him back to Konoha. I will teach him how to refine chakra, and then send him to the ninja school. When he graduates, I will probably teach him. Able”

Naoki looked at him in disbelief and asked: "How do you bring him back to Konoha? He can't pass Konoha's identity review."

Shingen responded calmly: "Don't forget my last name. Trust me, no one will object."

Naoki suddenly understood and patted Shingen on the back and said: "That's right, the Konoha Guard Force is Uchiha's territory. Sure enough, a wealthy family is a wealthy family."

Shingen slapped Naoki's hand away and responded: "Have you found any traces of wandering ninjas after being told such useless things?"

Naoki put away his playful expression and said worriedly: "Kanamaru and I have launched a carpet-like search, and found no unusual smell at all. Marina also found no traces of genjutsu. There is no trace of them in this area. It’s like yesterday’s exiled ninja appeared out of thin air.”

Shingen asked thoughtfully: "Is there any news about other teams?"

Naoki shook his head and said, "No, but Master Jing will be here soon. I hope he can find something."

The next day, after instructing Kenji on the key points of exercising his physical strength, Shingen and the others once again walked along Taoyuan Township to find traces of the enemy. They came to the jungle unknowingly. Entering the forest, the unique fermentation of vegetation produced The aroma stimulates everyone's sensitive sense of smell. The soles of your feet do not seem to be stepping on fallen leaves, but give people the illusion of walking on a natural mattress. From time to time, the crisp and melodious chirping of birds adds a touch of tranquility to this place. The angry, sun-blocking tree canopy makes people feel as if they are wandering in a magnificent building. This place is completely different from the forests of the Land of Fire. Instead, it gives people a tropical climate.

With the unremitting efforts of the three of them, the sharp-eyed Naoki found a shallow footprint on a thick branch.Then the careful Marina discovered more traces of enemy movement.This made Shingen a little excited. Finding these exiled ninjas not only accomplished their mission, but more importantly, Shingen finally had the opportunity to test the Sharingan.

The three of them searched for traces of the enemy and came to a sparkling lake.The enemy's traces stopped abruptly, and no matter how they searched, they found nothing.

Naoki said with a puzzled look on his face: "Could it be that the enemy is lurking under the water? There is no trace of the enemy around the lake."

Mariina immediately retorted: "This is impossible. Even Kirigakure ninjas cannot stay underwater forever. The traces we found were all at least three days ago. Unless they collectively threw themselves into the lake, how could they not come out of the lake?"

Naoki defended unconvinced: "Maybe there is such a ninjutsu."

Jinna said disdainfully: "Even the lowest level of ninjutsu cannot escape the time-sensitive nature. Under normal circumstances, the chakra extracted from 20 billion cells can only be held in the air or on the body or weapons. They simply cannot They may have maintained their ninjutsu status. With such a amount of chakra, they still don't need to escape."

Naoki was momentarily speechless by Jinri. He looked at Shingen aside and said, "What do you think is going on?"

Shingen looked at the stone forest in the distance and said: "This is a typical karst landform. There may be karst caves underground in this generation. Otherwise, it cannot be explained why the enemy's traces disappeared here."

Naoki looked at Mariina with straight eyes and asked blankly: "What does karst landform mean? Is it a very powerful ninjutsu?"

Marina held her forehead and popularized science for him: "Karst landform is a geology in which water causes chemical dissolution of soluble rocks such as carbonate rock, gypsum, and rock salt, supplemented by mechanical effects such as erosion, erosion, and collapse of flowing water. The general term for the effects and phenomena produced by these effects. This is not a ninjutsu, it is just a natural phenomenon."
