More than a year has passed since the Nine-Tails incident.

The four generations of Hokage wave Feng Shui Gate, his wife Nine-Tails Pillar Force Uzumaki Kushina, and a large number of ninjas and civilians died in the Nine-Tails incident.

These losses are far from being recoverable in just over a year.

It can be said that the current Konoha Village is strong and strong, and it is no longer the first ninja village that swept the four major countries during the reign of the original Hokage.

How long has it been since the Third Ninja War?

In less than three years, the ninja world has begun to become stirring again.

The most restless nature is the Yunyin Village of the Land of Thunder, which is dominated by military competition, and the shadow of the Yunyin Village is indispensable in every ninja war.

And today is the day when the Cloud Ninja Envoy Group arrives in Konoha Village.

They nominally came to Konoha to form an alliance with it.

As a matter of fact?

It's just to find out about Konoha by signing an alliance treaty.

……

None of this has much to do with Siri, he's just a student at a ninja school.

As is customary.

A shadow clone goes to the ninja school, a shadow clone stays at the dessert shop to help, and Sili himself cultivates in a clearing in the forest.

The content of today's cultivation is slightly different.

It's not basic physical training, nor is it physical skill training.

But...

"I'm on the left!"

"I'm right!"

"I'll hit the head again!"

"I'm on the left!"

"I'm right!"

"I'll hit the head again!"

“...”

Standing in the middle of the river and submerging half of his body, Xili kept wielding the mace in his hand.

He had consulted Kai on how to use his mace.

These are the three tricks that Kai taught him!

In Kai's words, one force will drop ten, and the emphasis is not on the skill!

Xili's understanding is: no matter how cool your bells and whistles are, Lao Tzu only needs a stick to send you back to the West!

And the purpose of standing in the water and wielding the mace is to increase the intensity of cultivation with the restraint of water on the Devil Fruit eater.

A side effect of Devil Fruits is the inability to swim.

As long as you soak in a certain amount of seawater, or if you only touch a little seawater but soak it for too long, you will feel fatigued.

At the same time, garbage soaked in seawater, or items such as sea salt and heavy metals will also make the capable person powerless.

In addition to seawater, ordinary water, rivers or hot springs that submerge half of the body have a similar effect.

But!

The situation of Xili is slightly different from that of ordinary people, perhaps because the laws of the Hokage world are different from the laws of the One Piece world.

He ate the Devil Fruit, though he was still afraid of water.

But it's not completely out of power.

After more than a year of masochistic cultivation, the influence of freshwater was no longer so great for him.

From the initial launch of the water almost drowned, now it can be reflected by submerging half of the body with a mace.

As for items like seawater or sea salt, heavy metals.

Sili has not yet been tested.

I think it is possible to counteract its effects on the body through practice.

"Whew..."

Wiping a handful of sweat from his forehead, Xili held the mace in one hand and panted with the other.

"It's not human!"

10,000 swings of the mace, a full morning!

Now Sili is tired and hungry...

I want to lie on the ground directly.

However, Sili knew that he could not lie down and rest, and that success was accumulated little by little by ninety-nine percent of his sweat.

Take an hour off today and an hour tomorrow.

How much time is wasted in a year?

Tired and can't move?

Isn't it still breathing?

Since you can still move, continue to train.

If you don't die, grit your teeth and persevere!

One set of mace-wielding training was a thousand, and ten sets of swings had been completed in the morning.

Throwing a piece of chocolate into his mouth, Siley took two deep breaths and posed for the next group of mace-wielding exercises.

"Make another set, make another set before you can eat the bento!"

Although the net weight of the mace is only 800 catties, Xili soaked in water feels that this mace looks like a special 80,000 catties.

Every swing is a milking force.

"I'm on the left."

"I'm on the right."

"I'll hit the head again!"

“...”

Sweating like rain, the upper body that was not soaked in water had already been wet.

Every time you swing the mace, you will bring up a large splash of water, and sweat mixed with the river water splashed by the mace will fly in the air.

The crystal clear water splashes reflect the sunlight and emit a colorful color.

The arms are getting heavier and heavier, and the movements of the swings are getting stiffer and stiffer, as if the mace is getting heavier and heavier, as if it will not be able to hold it next time!

Now Xili is almost relying on willpower to insist, and the mechanical swing of his arm has long been numb.

If the body has not yet fallen into self-protection, it means that there is still potential to be squeezed out.

Break the limits of the body and surpass yourself.

Today is stronger than yesterday.

This is the goal of Xili's daily cultivation!

If you are hungry, you can eat a piece of chocolate in the interval, and when you are thirsty, you can directly bow your head and drink a sip of river water!

Tired?

Bear with it!

Just the word genius can't deny a person's efforts, and it can't 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 went by.

"Whew... I'm tired of Lao Tzu. ”

Sili lay in the open space without an image, gasping for air.

The mace in his hand was thrown aside.

Now he could feel his hands shaking!

When he ate the lunch box at noon, he couldn't even hold the chopsticks, but fortunately, the food he brought today was mainly rice balls, and he ate it directly with his hands.

Before lunch, I did 11 sets of stick-swinging training.

After lunch, until now, Xili has done enough training tasks for eleven groups.

Originally, the goal of today's task was 20,000 times, but he did two more sets, that is, 2,000 more swing exercises.

"Lao Tzu admires himself so much!"

Sidley grinned shamelessly.

At this time, his mood can only be described as hearty.

Tired?

Tired of being a dog!

But he was so happy that the corners of his mouth were grinning!

Two more sets a day, 2,000 more sessions.

What about a month?

What about a year?

"Let's get here today, if you don't go back, you'll be scolded again!"

Xili rested for half an hour, took out the storage scroll and put the mace in it, and then left the training ground and walked in the direction of the shopping street.

Izumi knew Xiri's personality, so the technique he set for his storage scroll was simple.

The chakra of Sili is used as the key to the switch.

The storage scroll is the equivalent of a carry-on treasure chest.

All it takes is a small amount of chakra injected by Xili to activate the technique, so that the mace can be easily removed and stored.

This scroll can also only be used to store maces.

……

"Auntie, Izumi, I'll go back first!"

After having dinner at Izumi's house, Xili left directly.

Under the protection of the night, he quietly moved towards the forest on the outskirts of Konoha.

At present, the method of stimulating cell activity with electric current has shown a smooth trend and has entered the stage of file improvement.

If the first two or three weeks were rocket-like ascension.

So now it's like a plane with a constant speed increase.

Therefore, Xili doesn't need to run to Gen's base every day, he only needs to go once a week during weekends.

In this way, it is also avoided as much as possible to expose his connection to the roots.

Today was Friday, and he decided to go to the base of the Root Organization.
