Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 617: Being stretched thin
"team leader!"

Not far away, a Kirigakure Chunin appeared, looked at Hasegawa's mutilated body, and shouted loudly.

And after him, several Mist Ninjas appeared.

They were all Chunins, and the moment they appeared, they surrounded Qingming.

However, Qingming seemed not to care about it.

His eyes swept over these people.

Although it was only a glance, he still recognized them. These people were the ones who stopped him on the way when he killed Takuichi Fukui and was heading towards Hasegawa.

Unfortunately, his movements were too fast at that time, and by the time these people caught up with him again, Hasegawa had already been killed by him.

But then again, even if they could keep up with his pace, they wouldn't be able to cause much interference to him.

After all, they were just some Chunins.

However, just because he thinks so doesn't mean these people will think so too.

They didn't seem to be fully aware of the difference in power between the two sides. After looking at each other, they immediately attacked him.

Whoosh whoosh~
Kunai flew at him from all directions, as if they were going to kill him on the spot.

Unfortunately, Qing Ming didn't take such an attack seriously at all.

With just a glance, he locked onto the flight paths of the kunai and could even see some of the little tricks they played.

Most of those kunai were fine, but some of them were entangled with detonating tags.

Obviously, they wanted to take advantage of Qingming blocking the kunai to attack him.

Qing Ming shook his head, swung his hands, and threw out a few kunai.

Ding Ding Ding ~
These kunai accurately hit the kunai that were wrapped with detonating tags, knocking them back.

Boom boom boom~
A series of explosions sounded.

Fireballs appeared and exploded near the Mist Ninjas.

Those Kirigakure Chunins originally planned to trick him, but they never thought that they would end up hurting themselves.

While they were in chaos, Qingming swung the long sword in his hand to block the remaining kunai.

Then, he flashed away from the spot.

When he appeared again, he had already come in front of a Kirigakure Chunin.

"what!"

The Kirigakure Chunin was frightened by him and quickly retreated to the back.

Unfortunately, as soon as he raised his right foot, his consciousness was pulled into the illusion.

To deal with these Chunins, just the moment of eye contact was enough for Qingming to cast an illusion and control them.

huh~
The sword flashed.

The throat of the Kirigakure Chunin in front of him was cut.

A strong feeling of suffocation brought the Mist Village Chunin back from his illusion.

But this is of no great use.

After returning to reality, he could only cover his throat in vain and wait for death.

Without paying more attention to the other party, Qingming flashed again and appeared in front of another Kirigakure Chunin.

huh~
Another swing of the knife.

The Kirigakure Chunin reacted quickly and immediately raised the kunai in his hand to block his attack.

But that's all.

Qing Ming stretched out his left hand, and a light blue chakra ball appeared in his palm, which he pressed against the other person's chest.

Kakakka~
The crisp sound of bone cracking sounded.

The expression of this Kirigakure Chunin twisted, and after he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood, he flew backwards.

Qingming didn't care whether the other party was dead or not. After avoiding several shurikens shot from the side, he killed the third Kirigakure Chunin.

It didn't take much effort before he killed the opponent.

Qing Ming did not stop and began to look for the fourth person to attack.

Given the difference in strength between him and these Mist Ninjas, it's like a wolf among a flock of sheep. No one can stop him.

However, the killing did not last long.

Just as he was about to kill the seventh person, a thick fog suddenly enveloped the entire place.

"Mist Hidden Technique?" Qing Ming recognized this technique at the first moment. After murmured, he immediately performed the ninjutsu without any hesitation - Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!

call--

A gust of wind blew out of his mouth, instantly blowing away the thick fog around him.

However, just as he could see his surroundings clearly again, a blinding flash of lightning caught his eyes, forcing him to close his eyes.

But even so, his brain felt dizzy and he staggered.

Obviously, the lightning just now was not just about blocking vision, it also had some characteristics of illusion, and the effect was quite good.

Otherwise, with his current mental strength, it would be impossible for him to have such a big reaction.

Just as Qing Ming was wondering what kind of ninjutsu this was and whether he could copy and learn it, a subtle sound of breaking through the air reached his ears.

Qing Ming listened to the sound and determined the location, then quickly left the place.

In order to avoid possible follow-up attacks such as detonating talismans, he leaped back several times and moved completely away from where he was standing before.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

As it turns out, his caution was right.

Before he could retreat far, several violent explosions were heard from the front.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strong shock wave.

Qing Ming took advantage of the situation and retreated, completely distancing himself from where he was originally standing.

At the same time, his eyes recovered and he could see again.

However, the first thing that caught his eye was a, no, two steel wires.

Qingming glanced over and saw a special jonin from the Kirigakure appearing on each of his left and right sides.

They threw out a steel wire each and wrapped it around his left and right legs, as if trying to trap him in place and limit his speed.

Unfortunately, they were not fast enough.

After discovering this, Qing Ming immediately rushed forward to avoid being entangled by the steel wire.

Then, he leaped a few times and stood on a wall, completely widening the distance between himself and them.

Whoosh whoosh~
A few more kunai were fired.

Qingming saw the detonating talisman on it again.

Without any hesitation, he immediately threw an equal number of kunai, knocking it away.

Boom boom boom~
Explosions sounded one after another, and the detonating tags on the kunai exploded without causing any harm to him.

Qingming looked in the direction where the kunai came from and saw two more Kirigakure jonin.

However, judging by the amount of chakra, only one of them is a true jonin, and the other is also just a special jonin.

The one who just fired the kunai twice was that special jonin.

As for the real jonin.
Based on the last remaining image in his memory, Qing Ming can be sure that the other party is the ninja who released the lightning.

Taking his eyes off the other person, Qingming looked at the special jonin from Kirigakure who were following him from both sides.

It is certain that these four people are the latest ones dispatched by the Kirigakure Command to deal with him.

"One true jonin and three special jonin."

Qing Ming shook his head.

This is not to say that they are not strong enough. Judging from their cooperation just now, the strength of these four people is quite good.

But this cannot really kill him, and there is even a risk of him killing you in return.

He has been active on this battlefield for quite a long time and has taken action many times. The Hidden Mist Village must have collected some information about him.

And with the strength he has shown in the past period of time, it would be impossible to stop him with these people alone. Qingming didn't believe that the Wuyin commander was unaware of this.

But since they knew this and still sent these people out, there was only one reason, and that was they had no extra manpower.

Obviously, the war of attrition over the past period of time, as well as the counter-encirclement launched by Konoha using him as bait, caused heavy losses to the Hidden Mist Village.

Now faced with an emergency, their performance is somewhat stretched.

However, this is good news for Konoha and for them.

Next, he just needs to hold back these four people, and the three teams outside will be able to advance quickly.

By then, the situation will be clear.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Qing Ming didn't think any more and immediately pounced on the person in front of him.
