Chapter 753 Uchiha Itachi

The 52nd year of Konoha, this is a very awkward time.

In the past, the Nine-tail Rebellion had just passed, the Minato couple died in the war, the war broke out again, the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha went to war again, and in the future, six years later, the Uchiha clan will usher in the night of genocide, and all members of the Uchiha clan will be slaughtered, leaving only the second pillar.

But compared to this kind of thing, Mu Qingzhi is more concerned about another problem now.

... She is running out of money.

Although her parents in her previous life left her a legacy, the amount of money was not much, and she, a five-year-old orphan, had no income from property, so she could only live on it.

Although there is a subsidy from the Uchiha family on weekdays, that subsidy is basically just enough for her to live alone.

It was okay before, but now with her increasing the amount of daily training, the financial situation is suddenly tight.

"No wonder they say poor in literature and rich in martial arts..."

After lying on the ground exhausted again, Mu Qingzhi complained in her heart and thought about this issue seriously.

In the past week, with her daily extreme training that was almost like squeezing, her physical fitness has improved, and her appetite has also increased.

She was originally in the period of growth, and coupled with this extreme training that was almost like self-mutilation, her nutritional needs were even greater.

Not only that, after high-intensity training every day, she had to take a corresponding medicinal bath to relieve physical fatigue. Otherwise, even if she had chakra, she would not be able to get up the next day, which was another large expense.

At this consumption rate, she would be penniless in less than half a month.

"As for money... huh?"

As if she had noticed something, Mu Qingzhi turned her head with some doubts and looked at the dense forest on the side, but she only saw that the trees there swayed slightly and then returned to calm.

"Other Uchiha clan members passing by... That's right, this is the training ground of the Uchiha clan."

Mu Qingzhi stood up while resisting the pain in her body, opened the package and took out the dry food she brought with her.

The physical training has come to an end today, and the next step is to practice ninjutsu. She is still very interested in this new ability system that is different from what she has been exposed to before.

………………………………………………………………

"It's a close call, I was almost discovered... Is your perception as sharp?"

In the dense forest outside the clearing, Uchiha Itachi, hiding behind a tree, breathed a sigh of relief.

He discovered this girl from the same clan a week ago. Because the training locations of the two were relatively close, he paid extra attention to her for a while.

...Then he was a little scared.

As the eldest son of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan and a genius boy in the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi believed that he had worked very hard in his usual training, but compared with this girl from the same clan and who should be the same age, the two were simply a world apart.

Every time she trained, the girl used the kind of extreme training method that was almost self-harming. He had heard from his father that this training method was extremely painful. It was a way to grow by breaking one's own limits again and again.

The state of exhaustion after training that they couldn't even stand up was the starting point of this extreme training method.

However, although this extreme training method had a significant improvement effect, it was easy to hurt the foundation of the body. Only those who knew their physical condition well and could endure the inhuman pain could try this training method.

There was only one standard for this training method, that was to train oneself until he was completely unconscious. He had tried that kind of pain once before, and he still remembered it vividly.

In fact, if it was just an extreme training method, he wouldn't be so shocked, but the problem was that the other party's training method could no longer be considered an extreme training method, but should be called a life-threatening training method.

The standard of extreme training is to train yourself to a state of complete coma, which is basically once a day. However, the opponent not only relied on his strong willpower to keep his will awake in this state, but also continued to carry out relevant ninjutsu and shuriken throwing training afterwards.

——This is no longer called training, but suicide.

And this high-intensity training has lasted for a whole week. Compared with the girl's training, his daily training is a bit ashamed.

"Maybe she also carries the same heavy expectations from her elders as me..."

As if thinking of something, Uchiha Itachi sighed.

When he was four years old, he had already gone to the battlefield under the leadership of his father. At that time, it was the period of the Third Ninja World War. The scene of blood and flesh flying and corpses raining all over the battlefield left him with a deep psychological shadow.

Since then, he has hated war and even had the idea of ​​escaping in his heart.

...But for him who carries heavy expectations, he can't show those things.

The expectations from his father and the pressure from the clan were like two huge mountains pressing on his shoulders. No matter what he did, he had to do his best.

In fact, he did so.

Although he is only five or six years old, he has become a famous young genius in the Uchiha clan, not by his status, but by his own hard work.

...But now, he has found someone who works harder than him.

"Let's find a chance to get to know her later. If she continues to train like this, her body will sooner or later not be able to bear it..."

This idea vaguely emerged in his mind. Shaking his head slightly, Uchiha Itachi turned around and planned to return to his training ground.

Soon, he will enter the ninja school. Before that, he can't afford to slack off.

But just when he was about to turn around and leave, a sonorous and powerful voice suddenly came from the open space in the dense forest behind him.

"Fire escape - Great Fireball Technique!!"

...Great Fireball?

After a slight pause, Uchiha Itachi turned his head and looked at the open space again.

Due to time constraints, he had only observed her training in physical skills or shuriken throwing techniques in the past few days, but he had not noticed that she had practiced ninjutsu.

Although the Great Fireball Technique was only a C-level ninjutsu, it was not something that someone of her age could master...

Looking at the huge fireball with a diameter of about one meter spit out from her mouth, Uchiha Itachi suddenly fell silent.

The Great Fireball Technique was actually nothing. He had successfully released it in one go under the guidance of his father, but the successful release of this ninjutsu showed one thing.

——The girl was a true genius like him.

And more importantly, the other party was not only a genius like him, but also seemed to work harder than him...

For a moment, in Uchiha Itachi's mind, his impression of this mysterious girl of the same race changed again.
