Cheat Ability Unlocked

"The Hokage World is far too dangerous. I have to grow stronger to protect myself!

I'm already six years old, old enough to begin some focused physical training.

After all, Chakra is extracted from a person's spiritual and physical energy. Maybe training my body will bring about a miracle!"

In the open clearing, a child stretched his limbs, practiced a set of martial arts from his previous life, then did fifty push-ups.

After finishing all that, he ran toward Konoha's rising sun.

In the distance, Might Guy, who had returned with Rock Lee, saw this. He crouched down, pointed at Qinglong in the distance, and said to Little Lee.

"Lee! Haven't you seen it yet?"

"This is youth!"

Wearing the same green outfit, Lee excitedly clenched his fists, flames of passion burning in his eyes.

"Ha!"

Guy sent Little Lee flying with a slap.

"Then hurry up and go train by running!"

"Yes, sir!"

Using the force of Guy's slap, Lee flipped down from the second floor, wiped away a streak of nosebleed, and ran into the distance beneath the rising sun.

Guy watched with tears in his eyes.

"This... is youth!"

As Qinglong ran, he saw a child in a strange green outfit catch up from behind.

With a bowl-cut hairstyle, the boy gave Qinglong a thumbs-up, his teeth gleaming at the corner of his smile.

"Young man! Keep it up!"

"As long as you work hard, you can become a great Ninja!"

This... was Rock Lee!

Qinglong was stunned. That bowl cut was really eye-catching!

This was the Taijutsu genius from Naruto! A hardworking genius!

"Keep it up, Lee!"

Qinglong gave him a thumbs-up in return!

For several days after that, Qinglong kept running into Lee whenever he trained. As expected of a hardworking genius, Rock Lee's efforts were visible every single day.

Over the past few years, Qinglong had also seen the legendary Blue Beast of Konoha, Might Guy. Dressed in green with a bowl cut, whenever he grinned, his teeth shone brighter than the sun.

He truly was Konoha's brightest fellow!

Because of Lee's appearance, Qinglong also got to see the legendary Guy, the Blue Beast of Konoha!

"Qinglong, you work very hard. It's a pity you have no Chakra!"

Guy deeply regretted that Qinglong had no Chakra. He was such a hardworking young man, after all.

But Qinglong did not give up. After several days of training, he began expanding the distance of his runs.

Even now, Konoha was still very unfamiliar to him, and there were many places he had never visited.

Not to mention the Uchiha Clan, which had always been exclusionary. He had not dared go there before, and he dared even less now.

Then there was the Hyuga Clan, which refused entry to outsiders, the Aburame Clan, which raised insects, and the Inuzuka Clan, which raised dogs. All were places outsiders did not dare approach.

Just as he worried about it, several vicious dogs appeared at the intersection ahead, blocking his way. Each one stared at Qinglong with fierce vigilance.

Some of the large dogs were taller than Qinglong even while standing still. Their huge eyes fixed on him as they bared rows of sharp fangs, and a terrifying sense of pressure bore down on him.

Qinglong stared at them for a while, his heart pounding with fear. Then he suddenly remembered that back on Blue Star, when encountering vicious dogs, you only had to bend down and pretend to pick up a stone to scare them away.

Should he pick up a stone?

If he was going to do it, he might as well do it!

Qinglong bent down and picked up a fist-sized stone. The pack of dogs watched the child picking up a rock as though he were some little fool.

Why hadn't this child left yet? Should they chase him away?

Holding the stone, Qinglong hesitated for a moment, wary of provoking them. Then, in a sudden burst of nerve, he actually threw it.

The stone traced an arc through the air, landed on the ground, and rolled before the dogs.

"Woof!"

One dog barked, and then several others joined in with loud barks, preparing to pounce.

"Ahhh!"

Qinglong let out a strange cry, turned around, and bolted.

"Woof!"

"Woof woof!"

A pack of dogs barked as they charged after him, their yelping filling the air.

Beside them, a little boy with markings painted on his face was holding a white puppy while unbuttoning his pants beside a utility pole to pee.

The instant the pack rushed out, the white puppy started barking too. Watching the noisy dogs charge off, it followed after them.

Kiba Inuzuka had only gotten halfway through peeing and hadn't even pulled up his pants when Akamaru jerked him stumbling forward. Holding up his half-worn pants with one hand, he was dragged into a mad sprint.

Urine splashed all over the ground...

Only after sprinting across half of Konoha did Qinglong feel that the barking behind him had gradually faded, as though they had failed to catch up.

Before he could turn around to look, he rounded a corner and slammed into a pair of smooth, jade-like thighs.

Duang!

Soft, warm, and bouncy!

Qinglong looked up and saw two enormous, towering half-moons.

After backing up several steps, Qinglong finally managed to see the owner of those lethal weapons: a pretty face tinged with irritation.

Princess Tsunade looked down at the little brat before her. She hated unruly kids most of all!

It was Tsunade!

Qinglong bent at the waist in a bow, addressing her in the manner of Blue Star.

"Big sister, I'm sorry!"

The irritation on Tsunade's face rapidly vanished, replaced by a curved smile.

This little brat called me big sister. Heh! Princess Tsunade really is still young! Hohoho!

Hah! Women!

Tsunade put on a gentle smile, crossed her arms over her chest, and bent down, as though two full moons had appeared suspended in the air.

If Jiraiya saw this, his nosebleed would definitely start pouring.

Qinglong touched his own nose as well. Fortunately, no nosebleed came out.
