Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"careful!"

Hearing Qingming's words, Nagashima Tomohisa gave a sharp shout, took out a few kunai like lightning, and threw them towards Qingming.

That's right, the person who just spoke was none other than Qing Ming. He used the 'Transformation Technique' to disguise himself as a rock ninja and took advantage of the chaos to get here.

Originally, he did not expect to meet Lao Zi in this situation, but when he saw him, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity.

As a result, a hint of murderous intent was revealed unconsciously.

It was this trace of murderous intent that made Lao Zi aware of the danger and quickly located the source, which made Qing Ming feel helpless.

Bang~

Remove the ‘transformation spell’.

Qing Ming showed his true form.

Ignoring the Iwa ninja who retreated in panic on both sides, he opened his Sharingan and instantly locked onto the incoming kunai. His body flashed and he avoided all attacks.

Not only that, he also took the opportunity to get close to Lao Zi. With a "sniff", he pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed Lao Zi's heart.

"careful!"

Seeing this scene, Nagashima Tomohisa once again issued a warning.

However, Lao Zi remained motionless. Just as the sword was about to hit him, a layer of dark red chakra suddenly appeared on his body.

What followed was a depressing aura.

Immediately afterwards, Lao Zi took action like lightning and grabbed Qing Ming's dagger. No matter how hard Qing Ming tried, the dagger could not move forward at all.

After a moment of stalemate, Lao Zi shouted softly, exerted force with his right arm, and instantly threw Qing Ming out with his sword.

After spinning several times in the air, Qing Ming exerted strength on his waist and abdomen, adjusted his posture, and landed on a big tree.

Looking down at Lao Zi who was wrapped in the tailed beast's coat, Qing Ming frowned as he recalled the scene where the other party grabbed his dagger with his bare hands.

Bang~

There was a loud noise.

I saw Lao Zi kicking his legs on the ground below, and his whole body shot out like a cannonball, heading towards Qing Ming on the branch of the tree.

Qing Ming had no intention of confronting him head-on, so he simply put away his dagger, dodged and jumped to another big tree, avoiding Lao Zi's attack.

However, Lao Zi refused to give in. Before he landed, he stretched out an arm and pointed it at Qing Ming.

The next moment, a dark red chakra turned into claws and grabbed Qing Ming from a distance.

Seeing this, Qing Ming formed seals with his hands and instantly performed the ninjutsu - Fire Release and Dragon Fire Technique!

He saw a fire dragon spit out by him, and then collided with the 'Tailed Beast Claw'.

Boom~

A violent explosion sounded.

The fire dragon was instantly defeated and turned into a rain of fire that filled the sky, flying down in all directions, while the 'tailed beast claws' were just a little more illusory and continued to catch Qing Ming.

Looking at this scene, Qing Ming's pupils narrowed slightly.

The 'Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique' he used just now was specially adjusted based on the chakra condensed by the 'Tailed Beast Claws', and it consumed not a lot of chakra.

But even so, after facing the 'Tailed Beast Claw', it still collapsed at the first touch. This is no longer a question of quantity, but a question of quality.

Obviously, the tailed beast's chakra is a level stronger than his.

In this way, regardless of attribute conflicts, skill suppression, etc., he must consume more chakra to counter an attack of the same strength.

There is no doubt that this is a huge shortcoming.

To increase the intensity of chakra, all Qing Ming could think of was practicing the 'Sage Mode'.

The Senjutsu Chakra it condenses can even resist the Yin-Yang Escape, and its strength is considered top among chakras.

However, these are all things for later.

Now, the most important thing is to deal with Lao Zi's attack.

Seeing the "Tailed Beast Claw" coming straight towards him, Qing Ming didn't hesitate at all, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Boom~

The 'Tailed Beast Claw' hit the big tree, leaving several deep dents.

‘Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique! ’

Before Lao Zi could retract the 'Tailed Beast Claw', Qing Ming, who had dodged the blow, used his ninjutsu again. Dozens or hundreds of fireballs spewed out from his mouth, hitting the opponent like a meteor shower. .

"Hmph! It's so fancy~"

Seeing the incoming dense fireball, Lao Zi snorted coldly and planned to use his 'Tailed Beast Claw' to scatter them all.

But at this moment, several shurikens appeared from the fire ball and shot directly at Lao Zi's face.

"What?"

Lao Zi obviously didn't expect this and quickly dodged.

Stab~Zi Zi~

The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh and the sound of flesh being roasted sounded almost simultaneously.

He saw a red-burned shuriken grazing Lao Zi's cheek, leaving a scorched black scar there.

Feeling the burning pain on his face, Lao Zi became furious and shouted: "Boy, you are looking for death!"

After saying that, he formed a seal with his hands, took a deep breath, waited until his chest swelled up, and then spit it out violently, performing the ninjutsu - the art of melting and burning river rock!

He saw lava fireballs appearing one after another, like cannonballs, hitting Qing Ming.

Feeling the scorching heat coming from it, Qing Ming didn't dare to resist at all.

In addition, it was made of magma and had physical attacks, so Qing Ming was even more afraid to let it get close.

Therefore, he teleported one after another and rushed straight towards the surrounding Iwa Ninja crowd.

Upon seeing this, Tomohisa Nagashima immediately shouted: "Everyone, attack him, don't let him get close."

Swish swish~

Dense kunai and shurikens shot towards Qingming, including some detonating charms thrown by quick-thinking people.

The magatama in Qingming's pupils spun rapidly, and he could see everyone's movements clearly. In his eyes, the kunai and shuriken were like slow motion, and they posed no threat at all.

The only thing to pay attention to was the detonating tags mixed in.

Boom boom boom~

The explosions sounded one after another.

Qingming, relying on the powerful insight of the Sharingan, accurately avoided the explosion range of these detonating tags, and at the same time dodged the attacks of countless kunai and shuriken.

"Ah~"

"Be careful!"

"He's coming! Get back!"

"."

In a flurry of chaos, Qingming rushed into the crowd of rock ninjas.

With a smack, the short sword in his hand came out of the sheath, and Qingming killed two rock ninjas in an instant, which made the crowd even more panicked.

Taking this opportunity, he formed a seal again and performed the ninjutsu - Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique, and the target was still Lao Zi.

This time Lao Zi did not dare to be careless and made full preparations, but Qingming did not make up for the shuriken attack.

Realizing that he had been fooled, Lao Zi was so angry that he was smoking.

This is not an adjective, but a real situation.

Then Lao Zi formed seals with his hands and performed the "Lava Chakra Mode".

Then lava appeared out of thin air, controlled by him, wrapped around his body, forming a thick layer of lava armor.

Wisps of smoke emanated from his body, and Qingming could smell the smell of magma from a distance.

"Hah!"

Lao Zi shouted and rushed straight towards Qingming.
