Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 719 Arrival and Surprise

In a flash, more than two hours passed.

It's approaching noon.

Qingming finally arrived at the southwestern border of the Kingdom of Thunder.

In mid-air, Qing Ming opened the panel and took a look.

It can be seen that after flying over a distance of more than two thousand and nearly three thousand kilometers, his chakra is still in a fairly abundant state.

However, performing 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' and 'Chakra Feather Robe' will not only consume chakra, it will also consume a person's mental strength.

Even though Qingming's mental power was enormous, he still felt a little tired after flying continuously for such a long time.

Although he was sure that no one in the Hidden Cloud Village could pose a threat to him, as the saying goes, a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit.

Qingming didn't want to suffer a setback, so he planned to rest for a while before entering the Kingdom of Thunder.

As for the fact that the target of the mission was killed during his rest time, Qing Ming could only say sorry.

Compared to the life and death of others, he cares more about his own safety.

What's more, the other party was able to escape from the Hidden Cloud Village, send out a distress signal, and persist until now. He must have some skills.

Therefore, there is no need to rush.

With this thought in mind, Qing Ming no longer thought about it. He circled in the sky for a while, and with the help of his Byakuyan's ability to see through things, he found a place where there were few people, and then he landed.

It can be seen that this is a barren mountain with no grass and nothing on it except the strange rocks exposed.

Qingming randomly found a relatively clean boulder and sat cross-legged on it.

Then he took out a handkerchief from his tool bag.

After opening it, dozens of black, soybean-sized pills were revealed inside.

This is nothing else but the famous 'Bingliang Maru' in the ninja world.

He reached out and pinched out three pieces, stuffed them into his mouth, and began to chew them with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

This thing can not only fill your stomach, but also supplement various nutrients needed by the human body.

When Qingming was practicing hard, he would usually eat hundreds of them every day.

That’s the taste…

No matter how much you eat, it’s hard to describe!

So why does he eat so much?

Is he a masochist?

The answer is of course no!

The reason he eats so much is because he needs so much energy to restore his chakra.

As we all know, energy does not come into being out of thin air, nor does it disappear out of thin air. It only transforms from one form to another.

Indeed, with his current level of 'Chakra Refining Technique' and his 'Physical Fitness' and 'Spiritual' attributes, he can recover more than one million chakra points every day.

But these chakras do not appear for no reason.

First of all, he had to provide food that could extract so much chakra.

Otherwise, he would not be able to recover so much chakra, and if he forced it, it would only drag down his body.

That is to say, in the ninja world, there is something called "Bingliangwan" which is similar to compressed biscuits.

Otherwise, the time he spends on eating every day would be a huge amount of money.

In addition, he was able to digest so many "Bingliang Pills" every day, fortunately his "Physique" attribute was high enough and his physical fitness was strong enough.

Otherwise, he would be like a cook without rice.

It is for this reason that Qing Ming has always said that the attributes of 'physique' and 'spiritual' are the basis of growth, and has been making every effort to improve them.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind, and before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

Qing Ming glanced at the sky and saw that the sun was setting slightly, so he didn't waste any more time. He wiped out the traces he had left behind, sorted out his equipment, and then performed "Wind Style: Wind Wings" and "Chakra Feather Robe", and flew back into the sky, flying towards the direction of the Land of Lightning.

Originally, he was already very close to the Kingdom of Thunder. Now, after a short flight, he arrived at its border in just a few minutes.

However, perhaps because the war had just ended, there were still a large number of troops stationed on the border.

In addition, there are densely packed watchtowers standing in the woods.

In this situation, if he chose to fly over from the air, he would most likely be discovered.

He came to pick someone up this time, not to cause trouble. To be on the safe side, he decided to land early and then find a loophole in the opponent's defense line and cross it.

This step may be very troublesome and dangerous for others.

But Qingming is different. With the help of Byakugan, he can completely avoid the patrol troops of the Hidden Cloud Village in advance.

In this way, the risk will be greatly reduced.

In addition, even if something unexpected happens and he fails to avoid it, he can rely on the ability of "Heaven's Control" to force his way through.

Even if the worst-case scenario occurred and he had to fight the Cloud Ninjas, his own absolute strength was his confidence.

Therefore, Qing Ming had almost no hesitation. He found a deserted place and landed there.

After that, without any further delay, he opened his Byakugan and walked into the territory of the Land of Thunder.

It turns out there weren't that many surprises.

Relying on the perspective ability of his Byakugan, he easily avoided the patrol troops of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Indeed, some of the perceptive Cloud Ninjas noticed his snooping, but by the time they found the place where he had been standing, he had already left.

As for following the trail...

Sorry, after Qingming finds a problem, he will first use the ability of "Heavenly Control" to cross a certain distance.

At this point, if the Cloud Ninjas want to track him, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

By the time they combined all the clues and determined his approximate location, he had already passed through the opponent's defense line.

Afterwards, Qing Ming did not hesitate at all and once again used 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' and 'Chakra Feather Robe', flew into the sky and flew towards his destination.

During this period, the mountainous and cloudy environment of the Land of Thunder provided him with excellent cover.

Therefore, even though he took a slight detour, he still arrived near the target location three hours later, around mid-afternoon.

This is a towering mountain.

According to the last information provided by the Konoha spy, he was hiding among them.

Next, as long as he could connect with the leader, he would be able to quickly escort the other party out of the Land of Thunder and back to the Land of Fire.

but……

The situation at the scene seemed a little bad.

Hiding in the clouds, Qingming couldn't help but frown as he looked at the Cloud Ninjas in the forest below, some of whom were traveling in groups of three or five, or moving in secret.

Obviously, the spy's hiding place was exposed.

I don’t know whether the Hidden Cloud Village followed the clues and tracked them here, or someone in the Konoha Village leaked the information?
All in all, things are getting a little complicated.

Qingming didn't know whether the Konoha spy was still among them or whether these cloud ninjas searching the mountain were a trap.
"No, we can't just stand there and watch. We have to take action."

After some thought, Qingming decided to take the initiative.

Thinking of this, he found an empty corner, landed silently, and then went into the forest.

A few minutes later.

A member of the Kumogakure Anbu searched here as planned.

Qingming tried his best to hide his breath, and when the enemy came closer, he suddenly threw a kunai.

swoosh~
A slight sound of breaking through the air was heard.

The Kumogakure Anbu reacted extremely quickly. He looked in the direction where the kunai came from almost immediately and dodged to the side.

It was obvious to the naked eye that Qingming's attack was going to miss.

However, seeing this scene, Qing Ming's face not only did not show any disappointment, but instead there was a hint of smile.

As for the reason...

It was also very simple. The kunai had the Flying Thunder God technique that he had carved in advance.

Nowadays, although his 'Flying Thunder God Technique' has not yet reached the perfection of S-level ninjutsu lv10 (0/0), it has been successfully promoted to lv8 and has gone a long way.

This level of proficiency was enough for him to engrave the Flying Thunder God technique on a small object like a kunai.

This allows him to carry out a very covert attack.

Just like now, almost when the kunai and the Kumogakure Anbu passed by each other, he performed the "Flying Thunder God Technique" and his figure disappeared on the spot.

The next moment, when he appeared again, he had already come to the side of the Kumogakure Anbu.
