More than a year has passed since the Nine-Tails Incident.
The Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, his wife Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, and a large number of ninjas and civilians died in the Nine-Tails Incident.
These losses cannot be recovered in more than a year.
It can be said that the current Konoha Village is no longer the top ninja village that conquered the four major countries during the reign of the first Hokage.
How long has it been since the Third Ninja War?
In less than three years, the ninja world has begun to become more and more chaotic.
The most restless one is naturally the Kumogakure Village in the Kingdom of Thunder, which is dominated by military competition. Every ninja world war is indispensable with the shadow of Kumogakure Village.
And today is the day when the Kumo ninja envoys arrive in Konoha Village.
They came to Konoha nominally to establish an alliance with it.
Actually?
It was just to find out the situation in Konoha by signing an alliance treaty.
…
These have nothing to do with Xili, he is just a student of the ninja school.
As per usual.
One shadow clone went to the ninja school, the other shadow clone stayed in the dessert shop to help, and Seely himself was practicing in the forest glade.
The content of today’s practice is slightly different.
It is not basic physical training, nor is it the practice of physical skills.
Rather
"I'll hit the left!"
"I'll hit you right!"
"I'll give you another blow!"
"I'll hit the left!"
"I'll hit you right!"
"I'll give you another blow!"
""
Standing in the river and letting the water submerge half of his body, Seeli kept waving the mace in his hand.
He once asked Kay for tips on how to use the mace.
Kai taught him these three moves!
In Kai's words, one strength can reduce ten skills, the emphasis is on strength rather than skills!
Xili's understanding is: no matter how cool your fancy moves are, I only need one strike to send you home!
The purpose of standing in the water and waving the mace is to use the water's restraint on Devil Fruit eaters to increase the intensity of practice.
A side effect of the Devil Fruit is the inability to swim.
As long as the person is immersed in a certain amount of sea water, or if he only touches a little bit of sea water but is immersed for too long, the person with the ability will become weak.
At the same time, garbage soaked in sea water, or items such as sea salt and heavy metals will also make the person with abilities powerless.
In addition to sea water, ordinary water, rivers or hot springs that cover half of the body will also have similar effects.
but!
Xili's situation is slightly different from that of ordinary ability users, perhaps because the laws of the Naruto world are different from those of the One Piece world.
Even though he ate the devil fruit, he was still afraid of water.
But it doesn't completely lose its power.
After more than a year of self-abuse practice, Tamsui's influence on him is no longer that great.
From the time I almost drowned when I first entered the water, to now I can let the current submerge half of my body and I can show it by swinging the mace.
As for items such as sea water or sea salt and heavy metals.
Xili has not been tested yet.
Presumably, one can counteract its effects on the body through spiritual practice.
"call"
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Seeli held the mace in one hand and placed his hand on his hip, breathing heavily.
"It's really not something humans do!"
It took a whole morning to swing the mace ten thousand times!
Now Xili is tired and hungry
I really want to lie down directly on the ground.
But Xili knew that he couldn't lie down and rest. Ninety-nine percent of success was accumulated little by little through sweat.
One hour of rest today and one hour of rest tomorrow.
How much time has been wasted in one year?
Too tired to move?
Can't you still breathe?
As long as you can still move, continue training.
If you don't die, just grit your teeth and persevere!
One set of mace swing training lasts for one thousand times, and ten sets of swings have been completed in the morning.
Throwing a piece of chocolate into his mouth, Seeli took two deep breaths and got ready to continue with the next set of mace-wielding training.
"Do one more set, do one more set before you can eat the lunch!"
Although the net weight of the mace is only 800 kilograms, when Xili was soaked in water, it felt like the stick weighed 80,000 kilograms.
Every swing was done with all the strength.
"I'll hit the left."
"I'll hit you right."
"I'll give you another blow!"
""
Sweating profusely, the upper body that was not immersed in water was already wet.
Every time the mace is swung, a large amount of water will splash, and the sweat mixed with the river water splashed by the mace will fly in the air.
The crystal clear water reflects the sunlight and emits colorful colors.
The arms are getting heavier and heavier, and the waving movements are getting stiffer and stiffer, as if the mace keeps getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that it won’t be able to hold it next time!
Now, Xili almost relied on willpower to persevere, mechanically waving his arms that were already numb.
If the body has not fallen into autonomous protection, it means there is still potential that can be squeezed out.
Break your physical limits and surpass yourself.
Today is stronger than yesterday.
This is the goal of Xili's daily practice!
If you are greedy, you can eat a piece of chocolate in the interval. If you are thirsty, you can just lower your head and take a sip of river water!
tired?
Bear with it!
Just the word genius cannot deny a person's efforts, nor can it erase the traces of sweat!
Success is not accidental, but inevitable!
…
I don’t know when, the rising sun in the sky quietly slipped from the east to the west.
The day passed like this.
"Huhu, I'm so exhausted."
Seeli lay faceless on the open ground, breathing heavily.
The mace in his hand was thrown aside.
Now he can feel his hands shaking!
When eating lunch at lunch, he couldn't even hold chopsticks. Fortunately, the food he brought today was mainly rice balls, so he ate them directly with his hands.
Before lunch, I completed eleven sets of swing training.
Since lunch, Xili has completed eleven sets of training tasks.
Originally, today's task goal was 20,000 times, but he did two more sets, which means he did 2,000 more swing trainings.
"I admire myself so much!"
Xili grinned shamelessly.
His mood at this time can only be described as hearty.
Tired?
I'm so tired!
But he was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear!
Two more sets a day means two thousand more trainings.
What about a month?
What about a year?
"Come here today. If you don't go back, you will be scolded again!"
Seeli rested for half an hour, took out the storage scroll and put the mace in, then left the training ground and walked towards the commercial street.
Quanmei knew Xili's personality, so the spell set for his storage scroll was very simple.
Use Xili's chakra as the key to the switch.
The storage scroll is equivalent to a portable treasure box.
Only a small amount of chakra is injected from Xili to activate the technique, so the mace can be easily taken out and stored.
This scroll can only be used to store maces.
…
"Auntie, Izumi, I'm going back first!"
Xili left directly after dinner at Izumi's house.
Under the protection of the night, he quietly moved towards the forest outside Konoha.
The current method of stimulating cell activity with electric current has shown a smooth trend and has entered the stage of document improvement.
The first two or three weeks were like a rocket ride.
So now it's like flying at a constant speed.
Therefore, Xili now does not need to go to Gen's base every day, he only needs to go once a week during weekend breaks.
In this way, it is possible to avoid exposing his connection with the roots as much as possible.
Today was Friday, and he decided to go to the root organization's base.
