Aoba got up and left Anbu's dormitory, appearing in the village and bathed with sunlight.
At this moment.
It was the afternoon.
The hot sunlight shone on the leaves of the forest, emitting a lazy light.
"It's a little early. Why don't I practice for a while first?"
Aoba looked up at the angle of the sun and felt it carefully fr the first time. He now had a plan in his heart.
Now he had a week of vacation.
Not only did he have to solve the problem of the follow-up leave, but he also had to take advantage of this time to train.
After leaving Konohagakure Intelligence Division's compartment, Aoba would spend dozens of minutes training his body almost every day.
But he has never practiced seriously.
He learned a lot about training's chakra method by reading all kinds of memories, but he had not practiced it.
This was not a big problem.
Aoba focused on caution. When he had just entered Konohagakure Intelligence Division, he mainly focused on reading memories to obtain rewards. There would always be time to practice this kind of thing, and he shouldn't hurry.
"Let me try the shadow clone technique first!"
Aoba's eyes suddenly lit up. He stretched out two fingers, crossed them, and made a hand seal gesture.
This was ninjutsu he had obtained after reading the memories of that Kumogakure ninja.
Aoba mobilized the chakra in his body in a split second and directly created another Aoba beside him.
The two Aoba stood together and looked exactly the same.
Moreover, Aoba could clearly feel the chakra in his body was evenly divided into two halves.
"Shadow Clone Technique can create a physical clone."
"The experience and information obtained by the shadow clone can be feedback to the caster when the Ninjutsu is removed."
"The experience will be accumulated to the caster."
"I can try this method of training..."
In the memory that Aoba read, he did not get too many ways to use the shadow clone. However, as a transmigrator who had watched Naruto anime, he understood the characteristics of the shadow clone technique.
"In the past six months, I have received a lot of chakra rewards. Adding on the fact that Sage Body gives a thick amount of chakra, it is enough to support me using this method of training."
"The only regret at the moment is..."
"I don't know how to use Multi-Shadow Clone Technique!"
Aoba knew that Multi-Shadow Clone Technique was written into the Book of Seal as S-level ninjutsu and was classified as a forbidden technique.
However, Multi-Shadow Clone Technique was more suitable for him.
There would be a chance in the future, so there was no hurry for these things!
Aoba and the shadow clone instantly looked at each other. The two figures flashed simultaneously and disappeared into the forest to carry out their respective training.
...
After a few hours, the sun was setting, and the heat in the air started to fade.
Bang!
Along with the sound of an explosion, Aoba didn't know how many times he used a shadow clone.
The shadow clone training experience also feedbacks the gains when they were released.
"It really is a training accelerator!"
After half a day, Aoba had already tasted the sweetness of the shadow clone. Although the consumption of chakra was massive, it was like eating double experience buff. The unit time training speed became faster, which made him feel very satisfied in his heart.
"This gave me a lot of ideas..."
Aoba suddenly thought of a question. If his teal body could train together with the shadow clone, then it was double training. But even if his real body could not train. He could still achieve a single-fold training effect as long as he secretly used his shadow clone to train.
It was better than not being able to train!
However...
This process must be done with caution!
He must not let anyone find out, and caution was the key.
It was better to keep a low profile.
He can't be reckless!
Aoba was very clear that his situation was different from the other ninjas.
The other ninjas needed to put all their efforts into training to gain strength, and taking the initiative to show strength would buy more resources.
But he didn't need to do this!
As long as he continued to read memories in Konohagakure Intelligence Division, he would continuously improve.
Therefore.
It was not a problem to increase his training speed.
Stability was stability!
If he wanted to become strong, he had to survive first!
...
When Aoba came out of the small forest, his face was full of exhaustion. It could be seen that he had done a very intense multi-person exercise.
After all, every time he used the shadow clone technique, it would take away half of his chakra.
Even though Aoba had obtained such a powerful physique like Sage Body, his physical strength would still be exhausted under the premise that he had not fully developed and trained.
After leaving the small forest, Aoba walked straight to the Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House in the center of Konohagakure.
"Give me a set meal."
Aoba lifted the curtain of the Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House, his eyes focused on Teuchi, and his tone was a little tired.
"Okay~"
Teuchi squinted his eyes at Aoba, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I haven't been here for a long time!"
Teuchi started to knead the noodles with his hands and heat the soup. It was still early, so Aoba was the only one in the noodle house.
"I'm busy with work."
Aoba said casually.
"You look very tired!"
Teuchi said to Aoba.
"I'm not in good health."
Aoba's tone was a little indifferent.
"Oh?"
Teuchi immediately stopped kneading the noodles in his hand, and he narrowed his eyes and looked at Aoba deeply. Then he smiled again and said, "Today I will give you a big meal. Consider it my treat!"
"How can I accept this!"
Aoba was stunned. He had been working for so many years, but he had never encountered such a thing as being treated by the shop owner.
"It's okay, it's okay. You are not in good health, so you should eat more!"
He waved his hand and did not care at all.
Just like this, Teuchi chatted with Aoba for more than ten minutes, and the hot noodles were ready.
"The noodles are ready!"
Teuchi brought the steaming hot ramen to Aoba and urged, "Eat slowly. Don't get scalded."
"Thank you."
Aoba nodded to Teuchi. He sat in the corner of the long table and quietly looked at the ramen in front of him, but he did not start eating.
Time ticked by.
About half an hour later.
Ramen Ichiraku's customers began to increase, and Teuchi has also become busy.
It was just that...
Aoba, who was sitting in the corner, was like an invisible person. He had no sense of existence at all.
No matter if it were the people who came here to eat noodles or Teuchi who had been busy cooking noodles, no one noticed that Aoba had been sitting in the corner the entire time. The noodles in front of him were already a lump, but he had not eaten it yet.
Gradually...
The flow of people dispersed, and night fell.
Ramen Ichiraku's noodle house closing time arrived.
When Teuchi cleaned up the panel that had experienced a great battle, he suddenly found that Aoba was still sitting in a corner.
"You..."
Teuchi looked at Aoba doubtfully. He had never encountered such a scene, and a big question mark could not help but appear in his head.
"Is the ramen not delicious?"
