Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 782 The final insurance
Indeed, the Anbu ninjas are the people that Karatachi Yagura trusts the most. In his estimation, the task of finding and capturing the tailed beasts will most likely be given to these people.

But this is just his estimate after all, and he can't be 100% sure.

In addition, no matter which village, the missions performed by Anbu ninjas are extremely dangerous.

And this means that their probability of death is much greater than that of ordinary ninjas.

Although the probability of all seven hidden pieces being sacrificed in the next year or so is not very high, as long as more than half of them are sacrificed, he may miss the news of the resurrection of the Three-Tailed Fox.

So, he still can't put all his eggs in one basket.

Thinking of this, Qingming ignored the Kirigakure Anbu who continued to chase the Iwagakure Anbu in the distance, and after a few flashes, he came to a big tree and looked in the direction of the Mizukage Building.

With the help of his Byakugan, he could clearly see that in that direction, there were more than a dozen Mist Ninja teams gathering here.

And these people are not Anbu ninja.

But the fact that they were sent out by Karuta Yagura at this time is enough to show his trust in these people.

Therefore, these people will be his target next.

With this thought, Qing Ming jumped off the treetop, then raised his hands to form seals and performed the "Shadow Clone Technique", creating several shadow clones.

Then, Qing Ming made these shadow clones transform into the appearance of the Kirigakure Anbu and the Iwagakure Anbu, one chasing and one fleeing, and they dispersed and ran towards the outer areas of the Kirigakure Village.

Qingming didn't expect that this would completely deceive the Mist Ninjas who were about to arrive, but as long as it could interfere with their judgment and force them to split their forces, it would be enough.

Then, his chance will come.

The subsequent development of events was pretty much as he expected.

Although the Mist Ninjas who arrived knew that with martial law in the entire area, it was impossible for so many enemies to sneak into the village quietly.

But the Iwagakure Anbu were right in front of them, and they couldn't just ignore them.

After all, we should always be prepared for the worst.

Fortunately, they have a large number of people and are not afraid of dividing their forces.

So, naturally, they fell into the trap set by Qingming.

After that, things are very simple
Qing Ming first scanned everyone with his Byakugan, and after eliminating those Mist Ninjas who were obviously not easy to deal with, he locked onto those individuals with mediocre strength.

Then, cooperate with the shadow clone to create various opportunities for the main body to transform these people.

These Mist Ninjas would never have thought that after being separated for just a dozen seconds, their companion was attacked by someone and turned into a spy without even knowing it.

Of course, there were some unexpected events.

Because there are so many Mist Ninjas this time, it is inevitable that some of them will meet others right after they are transformed by him.

Then, when the two sides communicated, they immediately discovered that the time did not match.

In this case, Qing Ming could only take the risk of transforming the other person and erasing part of the memories of both of them again.

This dramatically increases his risk of exposure.

In addition, there were times when he had no chance to reform those who discovered the problem, so he had no choice but to kill them both.

During this process, in order to keep his identity confidential, he could not perform the ninjutsu he used to use.

This brought some pressure to his actions.

Fortunately, his basic attributes were high enough, and he had the assistance of the Mangekyō Sharingan and the Byakugan, so in the end no major mistakes occurred.

Of course, the Mangekyō Sharingan and the Byakugan themselves are the biggest flaws.

In order to prevent someone from reading the relevant memories from these corpses later, Qingming directly used a "Fire Style: Burning Technique" on each of them to destroy the corpses. During this period, some Mist Ninjas wanted to protect their companions' bodies, but they were all blocked by Qingming with his powerful chakra.

About half an hour later, when Qing Ming had left more than a dozen hidden men in the Mist Ninja team that arrived later, he finally released the 'Shadow Clone Technique' one after another and withdrew from the battle.

Seeing this, the Mist Ninjas did not give up and called more people to search the area for a long time in an attempt to find any trace of him.

But unfortunately, they didn't find a single hair.

Qing Ming, who possessed the 'Heavenly Control', simply ignored their search and swaggered out of the encirclement.

After getting away from the battlefield, Qingming stood on a big tree, looked at the Mist Ninjas who were still busy, shook his head, and planned to leave.

However, he had just jumped off the tree and had not taken two steps when he suddenly stopped.

It’s not that he found anything unusual, but after making the above arrangements, he still felt that it was not perfect.

Standing there, thinking for a while, Qing Ming suddenly muttered: "I still need one last insurance!"

That's right, whether it was the previous Anbu ninja or the other Mist ninja who had just been valued by Karatachi Yagura, they were only passive parties in the mission and had no say in searching for and capturing the Three-Tails.

In this case, there is still a possibility that he will miss this information.

In order to be absolutely sure, he must take the initiative in the task.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he will control Karuju Yagura.

Although controlling the other party should not be a problem with his current abilities, Yagura Karakura's position is one in which a large number of people are watching him every day, and his every move will be analyzed.

This is especially true during this period of time.

If he wants to have perfect control over the other person, he can't leave.

He even had to do the same as Uchiha Obito in another timeline. Not to mention directly launching the blood mist policy, he had to at least do something to disrupt the internal situation of the Hidden Mist Village so that they had no energy to pay attention to himself.

And this is something Qingming is absolutely unwilling to accept.

He couldn't tie himself up here, but he also couldn't be so cruel as to play with other people's lives for his own selfish reasons.

It is true that he can kill anyone who stands in his way without any worries, but this does not mean that he can be indifferent to human life.

If you do this too much, you will inevitably suffer a mental breakdown.

So, he had to choose another target.

So, besides Karuta Yagura, who else in the Hidden Mist Village will definitely get the relevant information in a timely manner?

The answer is simple: Yuanshi!

That’s right, he was the chief elder of the Hidden Mist Village who temporarily took over the position of Mizukage after Yagura Karatachi was overthrown and only handed over the Mizukage’s hat to Mei Terumi before the Fourth Five Kage Conference was held.

From the memories of the Kirigakure Anbu he read not long ago, Qingming knew that although this person was low-key, his power in the Kirigakure Village was second only to the current Fourth Mizukage - Karatachi Yagura.

Even during the reign of the Third Mizukage, his power and prestige were not low.

Therefore, the other party can definitely get the news about Sanwei in time.

As long as he can control the other party, even if all the previous arrangements are invalid, he will be able to get the news of the resurrection of the three-tailed beast in the first place.

It just so happened that the Kirigakure Anbu already knew where this person lived, so he could go there now and make him one of his own.

Qing Ming did it as soon as he thought of it. Without much hesitation, he turned around and ran towards the Hidden Mist Village.
