Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Yes, it's me!"

Facing Qing Jie Hou Yu Sheng's eyes, Qing Ming replied calmly.

While speaking, he waved his long sword, letting the blood on it splash.

The whole person's movements were very casual, fully demonstrating what it means to be fearless.

Since the plan of sneak attack can no longer be implemented, Qing Ming is not in a hurry, and simply shows up openly.

This way, it will also boost the morale of his own side.

And just as he expected, with his appearance, the surviving Konoha ninjas immediately lit up their eyes and their whole bodies became much stronger.

This is the role of the leader in the big melee. As long as Qing Ming's flag does not fall, the ninjas under his command will not collapse across the board.

Splash~

A sound of splashing water sounded.

Uchiha Tiehuo finally climbed out of the water. He covered his chest and said to Qingming: "Be careful, he is very strong!"

"Yeah."

Hearing this, Qingming nodded and said: "I know."

"Opportunity!"

In front, seeing Qingming looking away, Qing secretly said "good opportunity" and quickly threw the kunai in his hand.

Swoosh~

A subtle sound of breaking through the air came.

Qingming glanced at it, swung the long sword in his hand, and accurately hit the kunai away.

Qing didn't care about this. He quickly formed seals with both hands, opened his mouth, and performed the ninjutsu - Water Style·Water Chaos!

Although this is only a relatively basic C-level ninjutsu, it is simple to form seals. It only requires three seals of 'chen-cho-mao' to perform, which is just right for sneak attacks now.

Originally, Qing thought he could take advantage of this to catch Qingming off guard.

However, he never thought that almost at the same time he spit out the water ball, Qingming also opened his mouth and spit out a fireball.

It turned out that when Qingming swung his sword to block the kunai attack, he had already completed the seal with his left hand.

Only then, at the critical moment, he performed the ninjutsu - Fire Style - Great Fireball Technique!

Zizizizi~

The fireball and the water ball met, making a harsh sound.

Then, a large amount of water vapor appeared and quickly spread around.

Qing had extremely rich combat experience, and he thought of using the environment at the first time.

So, he saw him quickly seal with both hands, and in the blink of an eye, he performed the iconic ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist Village - Water Style - Hidden Mist Technique!

At this time, if Qingming wanted to, he still had a chance to interrupt the opponent.

However, he had been coveting this ninjutsu for a long time, and now the opportunity was just right.

So, he did not interrupt, but instead used all his strength to activate the Sharingan, observing the opponent's seal sequence and the general chakra flow.

When he completed the seal and performed the ninjutsu, he also learned this technique at the same time.

This is the copying ability of the Sharingan.

Qingming opened the panel and took a glance. Sure enough, he saw an additional skill on it - Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique: Level 1 (1/200)!

Just like the original 'Wind Style: Wind Blade', the ninjutsu that was successfully copied was directly at the entry level, and there was no need for trial and error in the early stage.

Although it would not take much effort to get started with such a ninjutsu with his current chakra, it would be a good thing to save a little trouble.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qingming closed the panel and looked around.

At this time, his vision was already white, and even his perception was suppressed a little.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

A subtle sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the side.

Qingming's ears moved slightly, and the long sword in his hand swung out, accurately blocking all the kunai attacks.

The surroundings became quiet again, and Qingming was not impatient, just quietly waiting for the other party to make a move.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, just as Qingming was waiting patiently, a familiar scream came.

Qingming's expression changed, and he flashed and appeared in front of Uchiha Tiehuo who was not far away.

He was already seriously injured, and there was another kunai on his arm.

Seeing him coming, Uchiha Tiehuo wanted to say something, but the next moment, his expression suddenly became extremely terrified.

"Die!"

A creepy voice appeared behind Qingming.

Then, Qing held a kunai and stabbed it directly into his back.

However, Qingming seemed to have expected it. He rushed forward, avoided the attack, and turned his body 180 degrees.

"What?"

Qing was startled and was about to withdraw.

But at this moment, Qingming performed the "Instant Sword Technique".

A ray of green light appeared on his body, merging him with the long sword in his hand, and came to Qing in an instant.

Whoosh~

A ray of knife light flashed.

It was about to cut Qing's neck.

At the critical moment, Qing raised the kunai in his hand and blocked Qingming's attack.

Ding~

A crisp metal collision sound was heard.

Qing couldn't bear the force and flew backwards.

Qingming chased him closely, swinging the long sword in his hand one after another, slashing Qing back again and again. For a while, he had no power to fight back.

Qingming's sword was getting faster and faster, and gradually, Qing couldn't keep up.

At a certain moment, his expression suddenly became dazed, and when he came to his senses again, Qingming's long sword had already arrived in front of him.

Qing didn't have time to think about it, and quickly raised the kunai in his hand to block.

However, what he didn't expect was that the long sword was like an illusion, passing over his kunai, and behind the illusion, there was another long sword.

And, it seemed to adjust the angle of attack according to his blocking action.

At this time, it was too late for him to block.

Qing knew that he was hit, and said "not good" in his heart, and his body suddenly retreated backwards.

Seeing this, Qingming sneered and said, "It's too late to run now!"

As he spoke, he exerted force on his wrist, and the long knife in his hand became faster again.

Swish~

The sound of the sharp blade cutting through flesh and blood sounded.

A little blood splashed on Qing's chest.

Suddenly, a wound appeared on his chest.

This time, the wound was not like the shallow bloodstain left by Qingming's failed sneak attack before. The deepest part of it could even see the white bones.

"Hmm~"

Feeling the severe pain in his chest, Qing forced himself not to scream, but just groaned, and then used up the last bit of strength to pull away.

Seeing this, Qingming was about to step forward to finish off the knife.

But at this moment, a water dragon appeared from the side and rushed straight towards him.

"Water Dragon Bullet Technique?"

Qingming's heart moved, and he gave up the opportunity to finish off the opponent. He flashed and avoided the attack of the water dragon.

Swish~

A blue phantom appeared and protected Qing.

Who else could it be but Terumi Mei?

The other party looked at Qingming with vigilance in his eyes.

Although she had learned some of Qingming's strength through fighting with the shadow clone, she still found it hard to believe when she saw Qingming defeat Qing so cleanly.

In this regard, Qingming could only say that Qing was too impatient and underestimated him.

The other party used Uchiha Tiehuo to set a trap for him, but he never thought that he would take advantage of the situation and take the initiative.

If his 'Instant Sword Technique' level was not too low and his movement speed was not fast enough, the initial counterattack would have killed the other party.

Even so, in the subsequent fight, he still relied on the 'Phantom Sword Technique' to seriously injure the other party.

Unfortunately, Mei Terumi arrived too quickly.
