Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 721 Breakout
Ten breaths after Qingming left this place, a team of Kumogakure ninjas arrived here first.

They looked at the corpses of the Anbu on the ground, one by one, with very ugly expressions on their faces.

Just as they were about to check the injuries on the body of the Kumogakure Anbu, another Anbu ninja appeared and blocked their way.

Then he said, "I'm sorry, let me examine the body!"

Hearing this, the Hidden Cloud Ninja who was about to take action hesitated for a moment, then took a step back, making his attitude clear.

Indeed, if this Kumogakure ANBU had not appeared, he could have said that he was trying to catch the enemy as quickly as possible and start an inspection.

But at this time, his companions had already appeared, so he couldn't do that.

As we all know, no matter which village they are in, Anbu ninjas are basically doing some shady tasks, and each of them has secrets.

In this case, whether for yourself or for the sake of your relatives and friends, it is better to avoid touching it if possible.

Time passes minute by minute.

Soon, the Kumogakure Anbu completed the examination of the corpse.

Seeing this, the Kumogakure jonin who had just retreated immediately asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

Hearing this, the Kumogakure Anbu nodded.

Then, a slightly dull voice came from under the mask, and he said: "Based on the clues left by Feng Quan, the enemy is most likely from Konoha."

As he spoke, he pried open the hands of the Kumogakure Anbu member who was covering his neck.

On the bloody palm, a deeper red leaf-shaped mark slowly dissipated. This was a pattern formed by using chakra to forcibly gather blood.

The other party used very little chakra, and even Qing Ming did not notice it.

Everyone present recognized this pattern; it was the logo of the Hidden Leaf Village.

This Kumogakure Anbu member left such a mark in such a covert way before his death. The meaning is self-evident.

Immediately, everyone thought of the target of this search.

Based on his actions, the Hidden Cloud Village has basically determined his identity, and he is most likely a spy of Konoha.

And now, another person from Konoha appeared here. It was almost obvious that he was here to contact the spy.

As soon as they thought of this, the first Cloud Village jonin and the Anbu ninja who arrived and checked the corpse immediately sent out a message, requesting the village to send more manpower for support.

At the same time, the personnel of the sealing team outside were also asked to keep a close eye on the sensing barrier and notify them of any disturbance.

Having just finished doing this, they were preparing to discuss the next plan of action.

At this moment, a strong chakra fluctuation came from not far away.

Along with it came the sound of the detonating talisman exploding.

Several people looked at each other, and without any hesitation, they immediately rushed at full speed towards the direction where the sound came from.

However, when they arrived, they saw only a mess and four charred bodies.

Several people quickly checked, and the Kumogakure jonin said: "It was Fire Style and Lightning Style. The enemy is very strong. This team had almost no power to resist. They were all killed in a few breaths."

Hearing this, the Kumogakure ANBU added: "Not only fire and lightning escape techniques, but also illusion techniques."

As he spoke, he walked up to a corpse, raised his hands, formed a seal, and performed a secret technique.

He put his palms on the face of the corpse, and then a magical scene appeared - the face of the corpse, which had been burned beyond recognition, slowly recovered and finally turned into the same appearance as before death.

It can be seen that before his death, there was still a faint smile on his face.

This is an effect that can only be achieved by illusion.

It even requires extremely advanced illusion techniques.

Otherwise, the target's pain before death is enough to break free from the illusion and distort the expression on his face.

"Proficient in fire escape, lightning escape, and illusion"

Everyone quickly thought of the information about Konoha's famous ninjas, trying to guess the identity of the enemy. Unfortunately, there were too few clues to give them an answer.

However, this at least gave them a general understanding of the enemy's strength and methods, so that they would not be completely in the dark when they encountered them.

They were about to report this discovery to headquarters and then distribute it to everyone.

But at this moment, the familiar chakra fluctuation appeared again.

Everyone looked at each other, and without any hesitation, they immediately rushed over there.

······
at the same time.

the other side.

Qing Ming looked at the Cloud Ninja Team that was dispersed by his "Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique". His Sharingan turned and instantly locked onto one of them. Then he changed his hand seals and performed the ninjutsu - Fire Style: Suyaki Technique!
bang~
Silently, a ball of fire appeared from the man and covered his entire body in the blink of an eye.

"Ah~"

Suddenly, screams of pain were heard.

"Red man!"

Another Cloud Ninja saw this, shouted, and immediately wanted to go to the rescue.

However, how could Qingming do as he wished?

The Sharingan locked onto the man's movements, and Qingming raised his hand and threw out several kunai with detonating tags.

Boom boom boom~
Several explosions sounded in succession.

The Cloud Ninja reacted quickly. He stopped immediately, dodged a few times, and barely avoided the attack.

Seeing this, Qing Ming flashed and avoided the shurikens thrown by the other two Cloud Ninjas in counterattack, and appeared in front of the man.

The two people's eyes met in the air, and Qing Ming hypnotized the other person with just one look.

Then, he waved his hand and performed the ninjutsu - Lightning Release: Thunder Snake.

There was a loud "crackling" sound, and a bolt of lightning shot out from his palm, turning into a thin snake on the way and hitting the Cloud Ninja's heart accurately.

In just a moment, the chest of this Hidden Cloud Genin was charred black, and he completely lost all his life.

This is not finished!
After killing this man, Qing Ming turned around and threw several shurikens at lightning speed, accurately knocking down the kunai and shurikens thrown at him by the other two people.

Then, he raised his hands again to form seals, opened his mouth and performed another fire-style ninjutsu - Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu!

He spit out three giant fire dragons, one of which pounced on the weaker person on the left, and the other two formed a double-team and pounced on the stronger person on the right.

Qing Ming's spell casting movements were too fast and his grasp of timing was too good. The two men had no time to resist and could only dodge passively.

However, Qingming was waiting for this opportunity.

Almost at the moment they dodged the fire dragon's attack, two thunders suddenly sounded.

Two lightning snakes as thick as arms shot out from Qingming's palms at an extremely fast speed, came in front of the two men, and hit them accurately.

Then, a burnt smell slowly wafted over, and the two men fell to the ground without saying a word.

For Qing Ming now, there is no need for any fancy means to deal with these "low" middle and lower ninjas. He only needs to open the three-magatama Sharingan, seize the opportunity, and solve the problem with a few simple ninjutsu and a few kunai.

Taking his eyes away from the two bodies, Qing Ming looked up at the figures rapidly approaching in the distance, chuckled, then left the spot and continued to rush out of the encirclement.

In fact, with his current abilities, he could escape from the encirclement without alerting anyone.

But he didn't do that.

As for the reason
It's very simple. Since he has decided to muddy the waters, he can't avoid fighting altogether. The battle that is bound to happen is bound to happen.

Only in this way can the layout of the Hidden Cloud Village be disrupted, and only in this way can the Konoha spies hiding in the dark know that someone has broken in here.

In this way, we can better proceed to the next step.
