Ti flew by, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.
During this week, Seii gradually familiarized himself with the entire forward base and then started leading teams to carry out missions in the nearby waters.
Initially, he thought he would encounter Kiri-nin again soon.
After all, the situation here wasn't very good; otherwise, they wouldn't have transferred people from the Land of Rain battlefield to co for support.
But to Seii's surprise, even after several days, he hadn't even seen a shadow of a Kiri-nin, as if all the Kiri-nin had gone into hiding.
However, upon careful thought, it was indeed possible.
This ti, because of Danzo's tip-off, their support team was ambushed. Although they suffered heavy losses, the Kiri-nin also suffered significant casualties.
Losing so many elite ninjas, even Kirigakure would feel the pain for a while.
Especially the deaths of Kurosuki Raiga and Juzo Biwa, two mbers of the Seven Ninja Swordsn of the Mist, created a gap in their high-end combat power.
In this way, it was understandable for them to temporarily retreat.
Seii was also happy to see this situation.
······
"Fall back!"
Land of Waves.
Southeastern waters.
On a small boat, Seii glanced at the setting sun on the horizon and spoke directly.
Hearing this, several Konoha ninjas responded in affirmation and started maneuvering the small boat towards the forward base.
Approaching the shore, Seii jumped off the boat, Chakra suddenly gathered at the soles of his feet, and he steadily stood on the sea surface.
Seii looked back at a young Uchiha ninja in the team, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a black mole between his eyebrows, and said: "Tekka, I'll leave the task reporting to you."
"Again?"
Uchiha Tekka's tone was slightly helpless.
Seii laughed and said: "Thank you!"
With that, he turned and rushed towards a blurry reef in the distance.
Seeing this, Uchiha Tekka hurriedly shouted from behind: "Then don't forget the challenge in three days!"
Seii didn't stop, his back facing him, he raised his right hand and waved, indicating that he had heard.
"Captain is going to train aga in. He's really hardworking!"
On the boat, a Konoha ninja muttered, looking at Seii's back.
"Yeah!"
Another Konoha ninja echoed his words: "Patrol missions are already tiring enough. The captain still trains every day after completing missions. I don't know how he manages it."
"Not only that."
At this ti, the third Konoha ninja chid in: "Haven't you noticed? The captain is also practicing so kind of ninjutsu while on missions."
"Nonsense! Of course we saw it."
The Konoha ninja who spoke earlier retorted bluntly.
Then, he sighed and said: "Sigh! That's why I said the captain is a freak. With such high-intensity training, I definitely couldn't keep up."
"Hehe~ Of course you can't!"
Uchiha Tekka heard their conversation and said with a slightly proud tone: "That's one of the two geniuses of our Uchiha clan. How can ordinary people compare to him?"
Speaking of this Uchiha Tekka, initially he was unconvinced towards Seii, this captain who appeared out of nowhere, but after being dealt with by Seii, he imdiately beca obedient.
Later, after several exchanges, he gradually turned into his die-hard fan.
Seii didn't care much about this, he just took this opportunity to hand over all the trivial matters within the team to him.
Of course, he also had to pay so price for this, which was the challenge the other party just ntioned.
However, although it was called a challenge, it was actually just asking him to guide the other party's training.
This wasn't too frequent, about once every three or four days, and it didn't take much effort, so Seii readily agreed.
······
On the reef in the open sea.
After Seii arrived here, he sensed his surroundings and didn't find anything unusual.
So, he crossed his hands, ford the 'Ram' seal, and perford the 'Shadow Clone Technique'.
Poof, poof, poof~
With a puff of Chakra smoke dispersing, six shadow clones appeared on the scene.
Without needing Seii's instructions, they each headed in a different direction and started practicing their respective skills according to the plan.
However, currently, his 'Swordsmanship' was already perfected, and there was no need for further practice.
Therefore, Seii let the shadow clone that was originally practicing 'Swordsmanship' start practicing 'Illusionary Sword Technique'.
Unlike 'Instantaneous Sword Technique', practicing 'Illusionary Sword Technique' didn't require specially prepared Chakra-conductive weapons.
Its main test was the coordination of 'Sharingan Genjutsu' and 'Swordsmanship', and that was also what was being practiced.
However, because of this, practicing 'Illusionary Sword Technique' consud more Chakra than simply practicing 'Swordsmanship'.
For this, Seii had no choice but to allocate a portion of his daily reserved Chakra for practicing this skill.
Fortunately, it didn't consu too much Chakra. With his current over 60,000 Chakra points, it was enough to sustain him for a long ti.
In other words, he only needed to take a break every once in a while, using the Chakra recovered during that ti to replenish himself, which could solve this problem well.
Usually, the Chakra he consud outside of skill practice was replenished in this way.
Although this would slow down his progress to so extent, overall, it was still acceptable.
Moreover, this also allowed him to have so rest ti.
Work and rest balance was the key!
Seii naturally wouldn't keep himself tense all the ti.
······
Ti flew by, and it was night.
The shadow clones had completed their tasks. After Seii digested all the training experience and mories, he returned to the forward base.
Walking into the courtyard under the moonlight, Seii suddenly paused, his Sharingan instantly activated, and he looked towards the corner of the courtyard.
"ow~"
Suddenly, a cat's ow ca.
Seii's heart stirred, and he walked over. He saw a large, pure black cat licking its paws there.
Seeing Seii approaching, the big cat didn't get scared and leave. Instead, it raised its head and looked at Seii.
Its gaze didn't have the usual innocence of cats; instead, it had a wise look, like that of a human.
Its gaze lingered on Seii's Sharingan for a mont before it spoke: "Uchiha Seii?"
That's right, it spoke.
Obviously, this wasn't an ordinary cat, but a ninja cat.
Hearing its question, Seii nodded and said: "It's !"
Receiving a positive answer, the black cat breathed a sigh of relief and said with a slightly complaining tone: "Where did you go? Why did you co back so late? You made
wait for a long ti..."
"Is there sothing?"
Seii ignored its complaint and got straight to the point.
The black cat spat out a note and said: "The person you're looking for has been found. Granny asked
to give this to you."
"Cat Granny?"
Seii murmured, instantly recalling the matter he had entrusted to Elder Kazen before setting off.
It seed that the leader of the Land of Craftsn had been found, and the Kusanagi Sword he had been longing for should also be obtainable.
With this thought, Seii picked up the note and saw an address written on it.
