Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Tap~Tap~Tap~

The dull sound of footsteps appeared in Ono Kamejiro's ears. He dragged his broken right leg, raised his head with great effort, and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

Then he saw Qingming walking towards him step by step.

A strong sense of fear came over him, and Ono Kamejiro unconsciously moved back. He held a kunai tightly in his right hand, as if this could give him a little sense of security.

Qingming saw the other party's little movements, but he didn't want to talk nonsense with this abandoned child. He flashed and came in front of him.

Before he could launch the final counterattack with the kunai in his hand, at the moment when the two looked at each other, he cast the "Genjutsu·Sharingan" to control the other party.

Kicking away the kunai in the other party's hand, Qingming immediately controlled the illusion and guided the other party to recall all kinds of information he needed.

After a moment, Qingming frowned slightly.

After a short pause, he raised his hand to seal and cast the "Chakra Absorption Technique", draining the man's chakra in a breath.

After he completely lost his life, he came to another Kirigakure Chunin again, and used the same method to control him with the ‘Genjutsu Sharingan’, and then began to read his memory.

That’s right, Kirigakure’s abandoned child is not just Kamejiro Ono.

In the previous battle, there were quite a few Kirigakure ninjas who were disabled or seriously injured by him.

Among these people, only a few were taken away after Tomohiko Tanabe issued the order to retreat.

The rest, basically, stayed here.

Therefore, Qingming has enough channels to obtain intelligence and replenish chakra!

In terms of intelligence, these people belong to the same team, so it’s almost the same.

As for chakra, these people together have a little more, and his main body can’t accommodate it.

As a last resort, Qingming can only split a few shadow clones, and while on guard outside, practice a few skills that will not cause too much noise to consume excess chakra.

After Qingming extracted all the chakras of the surviving Mist Ninjas, he began to sort out the information he had obtained from these people.

Originally, he thought that these people appeared here just to perform some routine tasks, and it was purely accidental to meet them.

But from the memories of Ono Kamejiro and others, he knew that this was not an accident.

At least, it was not a simple accident.

One of the purposes of these people appearing here was to intercept these senior ninjas who came to support them.

Yes, the Mist Village knew their support plan.

According to Ono Kamejiro's memory, earlier today, he received an order from his superiors to follow Tanabe Tomohiko and several other senior ninjas to ambush here.

There were also several other members of the brigade who received the same order as him, but the ambush locations were different.

All of this shows that there are definitely spies from the Mist Village in the front-line camp here.

The only thing that made Qingming feel fortunate was that their specific whereabouts were not known to the Mist Ninjas.

In other words, these people ran into him and Uchiha Shisui by accident.

And this is just as he guessed. These people are not targeting him and Uchiha Shisui deliberately, otherwise it is impossible to send such a small number of people.

Look, they are overturned.

"Sure enough, at any time, one's own strength is the most important!"

Qingming muttered, no longer thinking about it, and waited for Uchiha Shisui with peace of mind.

According to the memory of Ono Kamejiro and others, Qingming knew the overall strength of the other side's Kirigakure Brigade.

Therefore, the manpower to deal with Uchiha Shisui can be easily calculated, basically the same as that to deal with him.

According to his understanding of Uchiha Shisui's strength, the other party may not be able to do it as cleanly as him, but he will not encounter any danger, at most it will take a little more effort.

Therefore, he does not need to support the other party, just wait with peace of mind.

Sure enough, about ten minutes later, Uchiha Shisui returned here.

Qingming looked at the other party, his breath was still stable, and there were no injuries on his body. Obviously, the victory was easy. On his side, because he used the ‘Earth Style·Hardening Technique’ to resist the opponent’s attack at the beginning, his appearance was a little embarrassed, and his Konoha uniform had several big holes.

Fortunately, there was no blood flowing out.

This made Uchiha Shisui feel a little relieved.

He looked at Qingming and said, “Qingming, do you have any additional discoveries?”

The reason why he said additional discoveries was because he also learned the ‘Genjutsu·Sharingan’.

And if the ‘Genjutsu·Sharingan’ is upgraded to level 4, it can control the illusion more finely and guide the target to fall into a certain memory, thus achieving an effect similar to memory reading.

And with Uchiha Shisui’s talent, even without the assistance of the proficiency panel, the proficiency of a mere ‘Genjutsu·Sharingan’ must be higher than level 4.

In other words, Uchiha Shisui can also obtain relevant information from the minds of these Mist Ninjas.

It’s just that Qingming’s ‘Genjutsu·Sharingan’ is at a higher level and has stronger pupil power, so he can get more information.

So, he asked this question.

As for his question, Qingming did not think of hiding it, and directly told him all the information and some speculations he had obtained.

After listening to Qingming's narration, Uchiha Shisui's face was not very good.

Obviously, the other party also understood that it didn't matter whether these Mist Ninjas came for them or not.

What mattered was that they appeared here.

This is enough to show how bad the situation here has become.

Seeing that Uchiha Shisui was still thinking, Qingming said directly: "Okay, don't think too much, let's go!"

As he said this, he lifted the 'Shadow Clone Technique' and began to quickly digest the practice experience and memory that these shadow clones had just accumulated.

Uchiha Shisui glanced at the shadow clone that disappeared suddenly, but didn't pay much attention. After a simple response, he and Qingming continued to rush to the gathering place.

Because they had just been ambushed, the two were very careful along the way.

Admittedly, with their strength, according to the intelligence, the strength of the team dispatched by the Mist Ninja this time, it is basically unlikely to pose a fatal threat to them, but the two still dare not be careless.

After all, these Mist Hidden Ninjas are too low-level and have limited knowledge. Who knows if the Mist Hidden Ninja Village will use these guys to set off smoke bombs and then give them a trick?

When it comes to one's own life, no matter how cautious you are, it is not too much.

Fortunately, the worst thing did not happen.

The journey was smooth and the two did not encounter any danger.

Time passed by.

About an hour later.

The two left the dense forest.

After that, not far away, they met the patrol team of Konoha.

After checking their identities, they successfully entered the Konoha defense zone.

After that, after several checks, they finally arrived at the gathering point, which was the front-line camp of the southern defense line.

From here, it was the battlefield of both sides.

Standing in the camp, Qingming could faintly feel the movement from there.

Obviously, the battlefield ahead was not very peaceful.
