Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qing Ming threw three kunai.

Then, a few "ding-ding" sounds were heard, and all the kunai thrown by the middle-aged rock ninja were stopped by him.

Then, Qing Ming formed a seal again and performed the ninjutsu at an extremely fast speed - Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!

He opened his mouth slightly and spit out hundreds of fire balls in one breath, and then these fire balls split into two parts under his control.

Among them, two-thirds hit the middle-aged Iwa Ninja, and the remaining one-third hit Aikawa Suke, who was seriously injured beside him.

It can be seen from the other party's previous reaction that he values ​​Aikawa Suke very much, otherwise he would not protect him like this.

In this way, Qing Ming will naturally make good use of it.

"hateful!"

The middle-aged Iwa Ninja cursed with an ugly face when he saw his actions, but after scolding him, he still had to bite the bullet and defend Aikawa Suke from Qingming's attack.

There is no way, who makes Aikawa Suke the rising star of their family, he must not be compromised here.

Yes, the middle-aged Iwa Ninja and Aikawa Suke are from the same family.

It is precisely because of this that the other party will be the first to come to support.

‘Water Escape·Water Formation Wall~’

The middle-aged rock ninja quickly formed seals with his hands, and before the fire ball approached, he performed this B-level ninjutsu, creating a wall of water to block Qingming's attack.

The fire ball hit the water wall and made a "sizzling" sound.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of water vapor appeared, blocking Qing Ming's vision.

Upon seeing this, Qing Ming frowned slightly, immediately formed a seal, and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!

Immediately, a strong wind blew through, instantly dispersing the water vapor in the field and even clearing away the smoke and dust in the surrounding air.

When everything returned to calm, Qing Ming looked forward intently.

However, is there any figure anywhere?

The place where the middle-aged Iwa Ninja and Aikawa Suke used to stay was empty, leaving only a hole with a diameter of about 70 to 80 centimeters.

Apparently, they escaped through some kind of Earth Release Ninjutsu.

in this way

‘Then you used Water Release Ninjutsu to resist my Fire Release, was that intentional? ’

Feeling that he had been tricked, Qingming was very unhappy. He opened his Sharingan and glanced around.

Then, he saw the middle-aged Iwa Ninja who had just emerged from the ground in the distance, and Aikawa Suke who was already unconscious in his hands.

As if aware of his gaze, the middle-aged Iwa nin also looked over, and then showed a mocking smile.

Not only that, he also made a provocative move, which seemed to provoke him to come over.

But how could Qing Ming be so unwise?

Although he was unhappy with being tricked by the opponent, he would not lose his mind and try to regain his position. Didn't he see that there were several Iwagakure jounin near the opponent?

If he passes by and these people all give up their current opponents and surround him together, wouldn't he be in danger?

Qing Ming would not put himself in such a dangerous situation.

Taking a deep breath, Qing Ming retracted his gaze, and then looked at the battlefield around him.

At first glance, he saw his youngest subordinate.

At this time, the opponent was being besieged by two Iwagakure chuunin, and his body was covered in blood, whether it was his own or someone else's.

Without much hesitation, Qing Ming rushed over with a 'blinking technique'.

Before the two Iwagakure chuunin could react, he used two hypnotic spells in succession to control them.

Then, the short sword in his hand was swung, killing both of them instantly.

"team leader!"

It wasn't until the two Iwagakure chuunin fell that Qingming, his subordinate, reacted and hurriedly greeted them.

"Um."

Qing Ming nodded, without any nonsense, kicked off the ground with both feet and immediately ran to the next battlefield.

Since the other party allowed him to move freely for the sake of Aikawa Suke, he would not be polite and dealt a heavy blow to these genin.

In just two minutes, Qingming moved around the battlefield and killed seven Iwagakure chuunin.

Finally, the Iwagakure Jōnin couldn't stand it any longer, so they separated two people again to deal with Qingming.

However, what surprised Qing Ming was that these two people didn't even think about killing him. Once they came over, they spent most of their thoughts on defense.

Only when Qing Ming showed that he wanted to leave the battle would they take the initiative to attack, and when Qing Ming launched a counterattack, they would retreat again.

This made Qing Ming feel a little troubled.

However, through the performance of these two people, he finally understood the purpose of the Iwa Ninja. They just wanted to entangle him here and prevent him from attacking other Iwa Ninjas.

As for killing or something?

I'm afraid they haven't thought about it themselves, at least not yet.

In this case, Na Qingming simply spent time with them.

What?

Why don't you kill these two people too?

Indeed, he could do this if he used all his strength.

But what happens after that?

Two more Iwagakure jounin?

This time Iwagakure Village dispatched elites, and there were quite a few jounin in the team. Could he still kill them all?

Qingming thought that he had done enough in this battle, killing nearly ten chunin, plus two special jounin and two real jounin.

In addition, a Jonin was seriously injured.

Such a record is enough.

Any more would be a bit ostentatious.

As the saying goes, if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.

Before he had absolute strength, Qing Ming didn't want to show off too much.

Although his current performance has exceeded 90% of jonin, it is still within the acceptable range.

But if it were more, it would be unjustifiable.

In this case, he might as well follow the Iwa Ninja's idea and try his hand at fishing, and at the same time, he can improve his proficiency in 'swordsmanship'.

As for the life and death of other Konoha ninjas

That's not what he needs to worry about. He is their nanny, so there is no reason to protect them all the time.

What's more, Qing Ming felt that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, the battle lasted for such a long time, which was enough for Nara Surabaya to figure out the situation and then concentrate its forces to launch a counterattack.

The result?

The other party is still using the tactic of adding fuel to the attack, sending teams one by one in batches.

In this way, their troops could never overwhelm the Iwa Ninja, so how could the casualty rate be kept down?

If the fight continues, it will only be Konoha that suffers.

Qingming didn't believe that Nara Surabaya could not think of this, but since the other party still chose to do this, there must be a reason for doing so.

And the reason

There are only two of them, or the stronghold has been attacked in other directions, and no extra manpower can be mobilized to support them.

Either Nara Surabaya is planning something and they need people like them to act as bait to hang up these Iwa Ninjas and prevent them from leaving.

In Qing Ming's view, the second option is the most likely.

Otherwise, if it is the first type, then Nara Surabaya will most likely make them retreat and concentrate their forces by shortening the defense line, thereby reducing casualties.

Only when there is a deeper plan, the other party will lure the Iwa Ninja to stay at the cost of human life.

‘I just don’t know how big the other person’s appetite is? ’

With this thought in his mind, Qingming spent time with the two Iwagakure Jōnin in front of him.
