Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Swish~

Just when Mei Terumi was alert, a Mist Ninja who was about 30 years old suddenly appeared beside her.

She said in doubt: "What was that just now."

The person who spoke had long gray-blue hair, his right eye was wrapped in a black cloth, and there was a seal talisman hanging on each earlobe.

It was Qing, the elite jonin of Mist Hidden Ninja who took a Byakugan from the Hyuga clan on the battlefield a few months ago.

At this time, under the black cloth on the other party's right eye was the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, which had the ability to see through, look far and see.

The sentry tower where Qing Ming's shadow clone was staying was discovered by him with his Byakugan.

It can be said that the other party was the fuse of this battle.

At this time, hearing his words, Terumi Mei said seriously: "Yes, it's just as you thought. The one who just fought with me was just a shadow clone of the ghost sword Qingming."

Speaking of this, she paused, glanced around, and then continued: "Qing, you came at the right time, hurry up and use the Byakugan to see where the opponent's real body is hiding?"

Hearing this, Qing also knew that the situation was urgent. Without any nonsense, he immediately concentrated his mind, mobilized chakra, and activated the Byakugan under the black cloth.

In an instant, everything around him appeared in his mind.

This feeling of seeing through everything made him feel deeply intoxicated.

However, he remembered the important things and hurriedly searched for Qingming's traces.

However, after two minutes, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he still did not find Qingming's traces.

When he told this result to Mei Terumi, Mei Terumi shook her head decisively and said, "Impossible, the other party has been under my eyes just now. Even if he left for a short time and performed the 'Shadow Clone Technique', he couldn't go too far away, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Ao said on the side.

"Unless the other party was just a shadow clone from the beginning."

Mei Terumi replied hesitantly.

"What? How is this possible?"

Hearing this answer, Ao didn't believe it at first, but soon realized that there seemed to be no other possibility except this answer.

He didn't believe that the other party's hiding method could avoid the detection of the Byakugan.

As his most precious trophy, Ao's trust in the Byakugan is higher than that of many Hyuga clan ninjas.

He didn't believe, nor was he willing to believe, that Qingming could avoid the detection of the Byakugan.

So, Qingming was a shadow clone from the beginning? !

But the question is still the same, where is the other party's real body? Is there any conspiracy?

Just as the two were thinking, some commotion occurred in Konoha.

As the captain of all the people, with the name of "ghost sword", Qingming was highly expected by everyone, and many people secretly watched his every move.

Originally, Qingming was unable to restrict Terumi Mei, which disappointed many people and felt that he was not worthy of the name.

After he was suppressed by Terumi Mei, this distrust became more obvious.

Until he was killed by Terumi Mei, the restlessness of the people reached the limit.

However, when they found that it was only a shadow clone of Qingming who died, they regained hope and the falling morale recovered a little.

However, as Qingming's body did not appear for a long time, their hearts began to become uneasy again.

Ninjas are also human beings. Without the backbone, they will also be afraid and panic.

So, gradually, there was a commotion in the Konoha team.

Terumi Mei noticed this keenly, so she ignored Qingming who had not appeared for a long time, and turned to attack these Konoha ninjas.

Her idea was very simple, that is, to take advantage of the unstable morale of the Konoha army and defeat this army in one go.

In this way, even if Qingming had any plans, she could deal with it calmly.

With her joining, Konoha was indeed unable to hold on.

The two squads that Qingming brought from the forward base were both elite. Although their morale was a little low, they would not collapse at the touch of a button.

Of course, this was also partly due to the credit of Uchiha Tiehuo, a loyal supporter of Qingming.

He heard him shout loudly: "Everyone hold on, the captain will come to support you soon!"

Others heard this and didn't understand why, but seeing his identity as a member of the Uchiha clan, they thought he knew some inside information, which revived some spirits.

However, others were relieved, but Uchiha Tiehuo's situation was not good.

Qing was originally searching for Qingming's traces, and now suddenly heard his shouting, and immediately rushed over, as if he was going to take him down and find out Qingming's plan.

Obviously, he also thought Qingming had some plans.

Unfortunately, no one knew that what appeared in front of them from beginning to end was really just a shadow clone of Qingming.

Qingming's real body was indeed on the way.

······

A few minutes later.

Qingming arrived at the battlefield.

At this time, the sea area was in chaos, and the two sides were fighting fiercely, and it was almost time to decide the outcome.

The situation can be said to be very urgent.

However, despite this, Qingming still did not rush to take action. His Sharingan opened instantly, and he began to observe the situation quietly.

After a moment, he retracted his sight, took a deep breath, and then dived into the water, swimming towards Terumi Mei at a very fast speed.

As the saying goes, capture the thief first!

After the observation just now, combined with the memory picture sent back by the shadow clone, he can basically conclude that Terumi Mei is the leader of these Mist Ninjas.

In this way, just like Terumi Mei came directly to him just now, he was also prepared to take down the opponent, thereby damaging the morale of the Kiri ninja.

However, the development of things is always full of surprises.

Just when he was about to approach Terumi Mei, a figure suddenly fell from a distance, smashed through the sea, and passed directly by him.

The powerful insight of the Sharingan allowed him to identify the other party's identity immediately, which was Uchiha Iron Fire.

At this time, the other party was vomiting blood, and his body seemed to have been hit by something, and he fell hard towards the bottom of the sea.

Qing Ming looked up and saw Qing's figure following closely and coming to the top of his head.

Byakugan opened instantly, and Ao was preparing to search for traces of Uchiha Iron Fire.

However, the next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he quickly retreated back.

Bang~

Water splashed everywhere.

A figure suddenly jumped out of the water.

Rub~

The sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed sounded.

A flash of cold light suddenly appeared.

A long knife passed directly across Qing's chest.

The fierce wind escape chakra carried on it directly tore his clothes, leaving a shallow blood mark on his chest.

The other party reacted quickly and retreated immediately, otherwise it would not be as simple as leaving a wound.

"Is it you?"

Qinglian took a few steps back, covering his chest, looking at Qing Ming, and said in shock.

That's right, the person who took action was none other than Qing Ming.

The moment the opponent opened his eyes, he knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he simply took action and launched a sneak attack on him.

It's a pity that the other party has Byakugan, so he managed to avoid it even though he was on guard.
