Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Swish~

The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh and blood rang out.

Qingming swung his sword and left a deep scar on the opponent's chest that could be seen to the bone.

"Ah!"

The Kirigakure jonin cried out in pain, retracted the kunai he had stabbed, and quickly retreated.

Qingming lowered his head slightly and glanced at the wound on his shoulder caused by the kunai.

Then, he took a step forward and planned to kill the opponent.

However, at this moment, the Kirigakure jonin who had just been forced back by him with the "Genjutsu Sharingan" suddenly stepped forward and blocked his way.

Swish~

A kunai stabbed straight at him.

Qingming paused slightly, raised the long sword in his hand, and blocked it in front of him.

Ding~

The long sword and kunai collided, making a crisp metal collision sound.

And then, neither Qingming nor the opponent retreated. The two of them exerted their strength together, and the blade and kunai rubbed against each other, making a sharp "sizzling" sound.

Sparks of stars burst out in it, making the two people's eyes narrow slightly.

After a stalemate, the two retreated at the same time and pulled away.

However, the next moment, the two rushed forward again and collided with each other.

Ding~

The crisp sound of metal collision sounded again.

However, this time the two did not stalemate, and they separated at the moment of contact.

Then, they fought again.

Ding Ding Ding~

A series of metal collision sounds sounded.

Qingming waved the long sword in his hand and continued to attack. The Mist Hidden Ninja in front of him tried his best. Although he barely kept up with his speed, he could only defend.

This made him very passive.

Qingming glanced at the Mist Hidden Ninja who was injured on his chest and had now retreated to a distance, and secretly said it was a pity.

Then, he stopped distracting and began to concentrate on dealing with the Mist Hidden Ninja in front of him.

Before, the two opponents were not his opponents. Now there is only one left, and Qingming is naturally easier to deal with.

Just a few minutes later, Qingming had the absolute upper hand and left several scars on his body.

And he himself

was not only not injured, but even the place on his shoulder that was injured by the previous Mist Hidden Ninja was about to heal itself as time went by.

And this was exactly why he dared to use himself as bait to create opportunities.

Now, it seems that he can use the same trick again.

Qingming thought so in his heart, so in the next battle, while fighting with all his strength, he also deliberately exposed flaws to create opportunities for the opponent.

However, I don’t know whether he was timid, or saw his calculations, or for some other reason, in short, no matter how Qingming tempted, he just didn’t fall for it.

This made Qingming a little helpless.

Fortunately, the gap in strength between the two sides was here, and even if the opponent didn’t take risks, he was not his opponent.

The battle continued for a few minutes again.

Under Qingming’s crazy attack, the Mist Hidden Ninja was almost unable to hold on.

At a closer distance, Qingming could even hear the opponent’s heavy breathing.

The serious consumption of physical strength made his movements more and more stiff.

Finally, at a certain moment, Qingming, who was attacking, saw an opportunity.

Without any hesitation, he immediately burst out the chakra in his body, kicked the ground with both feet, instantly increased his speed to the maximum, and came in front of him.

Looking at Qingming who suddenly appeared, Shimizu Kenta was slightly stunned, and then stabbed the kunai in his hand, attacking Qingming's throat.

However, although the opponent's movements were fast, they were ordinary under the observation of Qingming's Sharingan.

In addition, this attack was initiated by Qingming, and the opponent's current reaction was also within his expectations, so he dodged it easily.

On the contrary, Shimizu Kenta was not good, and Qingming's sudden speed directly caught him off guard.

Although he stabbed the kunai in his hand in time, he was a beat slower after all.

On the battlefield, victory or defeat sometimes depends on this moment.

Qingming swung the long sword in his hand while avoiding the stabbing kunai.

It can be seen that his blade is wrapped with a layer of light blue airflow, and the airflow exudes a sharp breath.

This is not something else, but the result of a large amount of wind chakra gathering and friction.

Swish~

The long sword passed over Shimizu Kenta's neck.

Shimizu Kenta leaned back with all his strength to avoid the direct attack of the blade.

However, the wind chakra wrapped on it cut his neck.

The next moment, a large amount of blood gushed out.

Shimizu Kenta staggered back two steps and covered his neck with his hand, as if trying to stop the loss of blood.

However, this was useless.

Qingming's sword, with the help of the insight of the Sharingan, not only cut his carotid artery, but also cut his throat.

In this way, he not only had to bear the consequences of a large amount of blood loss, but also had to endure the pain of suffocation.

In this case, without a medical ninja of Tsunade's level to act in time, it is basically impossible to survive.

And obviously, there is no such ninja in the field.

Qingming may have reached Tsunade's level in some aspects of ability, but it is impossible to save the other party.

So, he can only wait for death in despair.

Qingming looked away from him and ignored him.

He glanced at the Konoha jonin who had almost defeated Ito Shohei and was rushing to another battlefield not far away, and jumped onto the tree.

Then, he took a few more leaps and reached the top of the tree.

Standing at the highest point, Qingming looked around.

It can be seen that the entire valley is now a battlefield, and the defense line that Kirigakure had previously built halfway up the mountain has long since collapsed.

Now, the two sides can be said to be in a big melee.

However, because of the early preparation, Konoha generally has the upper hand.

But similarly, Kirigakure has not seen a one-sided situation.

If the current situation continues to develop, it can be foreseen that even if Konoha can win in the end, it will take a long time.

And if this is true, then it will fall into the trap of Yasuda Akiju.

What he wants to do most now is probably to delay time, and then wait for another group of Kirigakure to flatten the Black Stone Stronghold, and then join them, and finally annihilate them.

This is not impossible.

In fact, it can be said to be the most likely scenario.

Although Sano Nobuhisa also deployed people to harass at sea, it is impossible to prevent the other party from approaching the Black Stone Stronghold.

And once the other party approaches, then with the current defense force of the Black Stone Stronghold, it is highly likely that it will not be able to defend.

At that time, they will be attacked from both sides, and the result will definitely not be too good.

Therefore, this battle must not be delayed for too long.

And this is the meaning of his existence.

With this thought, Qingming no longer wastes time, jumps off the treetop, and then runs straight to another Kirigakure jonin who is fighting with Konoha jonin.

Thanks to the fact that Sano Nobuhisa has transferred most of the jonin in the base, there are almost no "idle" jonin on the Kirigakure side on the battlefield.

In other words, Qingming can play freely without worrying about being besieged.

In this way, his strength can definitely be maximized.

And this is where Sano Nobuhisa's confidence lies.
