He couldn't take the normal roads, so he had to spend the entire journey in the mountains, trekking through mountains and rivers. It wasn't just a figure of speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few days, he had almost become a wild man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, all Seimei wanted was to find a place to take a comfortable bath and then have a good sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Seimei was lost in thought, a slightly稚嫩 yet low shout suddenly came from the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately afterward, several kunai flew over, grazing his cheek and embedding themselves in the tree in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei stopped and instantly activated his three-tomoe Sharingan, looking in the direction the kunai had come from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, to his surprise, what met his eyes was another pair of three-tomoe Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei looked towards the owner of the eyes and saw a young Uchiha ninja, who seemed even younger than him, walking out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shisui?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, the person who came was none other than Uchiha Shisui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him were three Konoha Chunin, clearly members of his team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Seimei's gaze only swept over them briefly before returning to Uchiha Shisui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After months of fighting on the battlefield, he had undergone tremendous changes. Although his appearance was still young, his demeanor was exceptionally calm and composed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon first contact, he gave off a sense of trustworthiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seimei?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Shisui looked Seimei up and down a few times, hesitantly speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't that he didn't recognize Seimei, but Seimei's current unkempt appearance was completely different from before, making him unsure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, although Seimei wasn't exactly a clean freak, he always presented himself in a neat and tidy manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was almost indistinguishable from a wild man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei saw the disbelief in his eyes and replied with a wry smile, \"It's me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Uchiha Shisui raised his hand to signal his teammates to relax, then said with a smile, \"How did you end up looking like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei pointed to the north and said, \"Mission requirements, no choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing about the mission, Uchiha Shisui tactfully didn't pry further. The two chatted for a bit, and after verifying Seimei's identity, he let him pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Seimei's departing figure, a strange glint flashed in Uchiha Shisui's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he couldn't be completely certain, during the brief moment of eye contact just now, he felt his Sharingan being suppressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, Seimei's ocular power might be even greater than his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And how fast was his own progress?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to other Uchiha Jonin, Uchiha Shisui was very clear - among all the Uchiha ninja, he was definitely in a league of his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what about Seimei?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had clearly awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan after him, yet his ocular power now surpassed his. This made him feel happy, but also inevitably sparked a sense of competition in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei was also estimating the degree of Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he concluded that if calculated according to the system's rules, it was probably only one or two thousand evolution points behind his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiss~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reaching this conclusion, Seimei couldn't help but gasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, he was practically cheating with his cultivation, while Uchiha Shisui could only rely on himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, he was only one or two thousand evolution points ahead of the other party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This showed just how strong the other party's talent was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Seimei quickly regained his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether the other party's talent was strong or not had little to do with him. He just needed to follow his own path; there was no need to compete for superiority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, no matter how strong the other party's talent was, when they encountered the threshold of the Mangekyo Sharingan, they would still slow down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was different. If he truly disregarded everything else, he could awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan in at most half a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what use was that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from increasing the risk of developing genetic diseases, it wouldn't significantly improve his apparent combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he couldn't expose the Mangekyo Sharingan at this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, what he needed to do now was to first increase his 'Physique' attribute and narrow the gap between it and his 'Spirit' attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only in this way could he lay a solid foundation for future progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1261,"2026-06-06T03:30:41.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","b94a241da881bf732752d69233d3c0dfb65bf52d7beb71d96d8df1470d49f9ea","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-150","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-148",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
