Sharingan Evolution: Proficiency's Path

Seeing that Qingming seemed hesitant to speak, the injured Iwa ninja lying on the bed grew concerned, thinking there might be something serious about his condition. He quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Uh..." Qingming hesitated for a moment.

Finally, pretending to be in a dilemma, he said, "You know, there are a lot of injured ninjas from our side after this battle, but there are only a few medical ninjas available. I want to help more comrades ease their pain, but..."

"But what?" the Iwa ninja, who had just been healed by Qingming, asked. The others in the tent perked up their ears as well.

Qingming glanced at them, as if making a difficult decision, and said, "But I don't have enough chakra. I can't help too many people."

"Is there anything we can do to help you?" asked another severely injured Iwa ninja, not the one Qingming had healed earlier. It was clear he was eager to be treated, and with one sentence, he had roped everyone else into the conversation.

Qingming seized the opportunity and said, "I know a jutsu that can absorb chakra. For the sake of our comrades, would you all be willing to contribute some chakra?"

Indeed, Qingming wasn't planning to force anything this time. He was employing a subtle strategy, using an indirect approach to obtain chakra. Since they were in enemy territory, taking it by force could easily get him caught.

Instead, it was better to put everything on the table, using the greater good to persuade them. This way, even though he wouldn't be able to drain all of their chakra at once, he had plenty of targets to choose from. With enough quantity, he could still come out ahead.

Plus, there was no real risk of being exposed. Even if someone found out, there would be nothing suspicious about it—after all, he was genuinely healing people.

"Absorb our chakra?" Upon hearing Qingming's words, all the Iwa ninjas frowned. To them, chakra was vital for their survival.

For a moment, the tent was filled with an awkward silence.

"Is it dangerous?" the severely injured Iwa ninja asked, breaking the tense atmosphere. His desperation was clear.

"Absolutely not!" Qingming immediately reassured him. Then, lowering his voice, he added, "I won't take too much—just about half of your chakra. There are just too many wounded."

Hearing this, the frowns on the Iwa ninjas' faces finally eased.

If it was only half, that seemed acceptable. After all, the battle was over, and they wouldn't be returning to the battlefield anytime soon. This was the rear camp, surrounded by patrols and sentries, so they weren't likely to encounter any danger.

With that in mind, the Iwa ninjas in the tent agreed one after another, saying, "For the village and for our comrades, it's our duty to contribute some chakra."

'Ha, your duty, huh? If you weren't desperate for me to save your lives, would you be so eager?' Qingming smirked inwardly, though on the surface, he looked deeply moved, as if on the verge of tears.

He then turned to the Iwa ninja he had just healed.

After a brief hesitation, that ninja looked around at the others, seeing that they were all watching him. He sighed and extended his hand, saying with conviction, "It's my honor to help!"

Clearly, he didn't want to be seen as ungrateful after being healed.

Qingming smiled genuinely and quickly performed the hand signs, casting the "Chakra Absorption Jutsu" and grabbing the man's hand.

To avoid alarming him, Qingming didn't absorb too much chakra, keeping the flow steady at about 100 points per second.

Feeling the modest absorption, the Iwa ninja visibly relaxed.

After ten seconds, Qingming released his hand and said, "That's enough. I'll treat the others now."

He then moved to the severely injured Iwa ninja, the one who had spoken earlier. This man was in rough shape, with several bandaged wounds covering his body.

Just as before, Qingming asked about the general condition of his injuries. Confirming they were all external wounds, he carefully removed the bandages to examine them.

A moment later, he confidently declared, "It's not too bad. I can heal you."

Hearing this, the Iwa ninja on the bed visibly relaxed. Even before the healing began, he said, "You can leave me with a third of my chakra. I hope you can help more people."

"This..." Qingming hesitated briefly, but ultimately nodded.

Without further words, he meticulously cleaned the man's wounds and began casting the "Healing Jutsu" to treat him.

This time, it took a little longer—about fifteen minutes—before he had mostly healed the injuries.

Afterward, Qingming withdrew his hands and reminded him, "Your injuries are severe. You'll need about a week of rest. During that time, avoid any strenuous activity."

"Understood, thank you!" the Iwa ninja said, extending his hand.

Qingming didn't hesitate, repeating the process, using the "Chakra Absorption Jutsu" to take about two-thirds of the man's chakra.

One by one, Qingming treated all seven Iwa ninjas in the tent and absorbed their chakra.

After leaving the tent, he opened his status panel. His "Healing Jutsu" proficiency had increased by nearly 100 points, and his chakra reserves had grown by around 3,000 points.

To be honest, 3,000 chakra points wasn't much. But considering how rapidly his healing jutsu was improving, he could tolerate it.

After all, the chakra would be used up anyway—might as well make the most of it.

Feeling the excess chakra almost overflowing inside him, Qingming didn't head directly to the next tent. Instead, he returned to his quarters.

Once certain no one had been there, Qingming sat cross-legged and began casting the "Mind Reflection Jutsu" to consume the "excess" chakra.

An hour later.

Qingming's status panel showed an increase of 60 points in his "Mind Reflection Jutsu" proficiency, along with 60 points in his Sharingan evolution.

At this point, half of his chakra remained.

Without wasting time, Qingming left his quarters and headed back to the injured ninjas' tents.

The process was the same as before: heal one person, bring up the same excuse, and use the greater good to pressure them. Soon, the Iwa ninjas would all agree.

He would then take the opportunity to practice his healing jutsu and absorb more chakra.

After visiting three more tents and healing nearly twenty people, his chakra reserves were once again full. Qingming returned to his quarters to practice the "Mind Reflection Jutsu."

As his chakra reserves dropped to half again, he set out once more to heal the Iwa ninjas, accumulating more proficiency in his "Healing Jutsu" and extracting chakra, repeating the cycle.

From noon to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening, Qingming, under the guise of Senmuishi, moved tirelessly from tent to tent, healing the injured without pause, occasionally taking short breaks. He was the very model of a dedicated medical ninja.

At some point, his chakra absorption was noticed by others.

However, it didn't raise much suspicion, since he genuinely seemed focused on healing the Iwa ninjas.

Without a deeper investigation, it was impossible for anyone to suspect his true motives.
