Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 834 Discovery and Solution

"careful!"

"Be careful~"

"."

Seeing Qingming's actions, several warnings were immediately heard.

In front of Qingming, the Rock Ninjas immediately split into three groups. One of them pounced on the female Rock Ninja behind, trying to push her out of the fire dragon's attack range.

The other two raised their hands and formed seals, performing the ninjutsu - Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall, creating two earth walls in the shape of a "<" to protect the female ninja behind them.

In addition, three others gave up their protection and rushed towards Qingming together.

This choice instantly confirmed Qingming's guess.

Obviously, this female ninja is most likely the reason why these Rock Ninjas were able to track them here.

Although it was unclear what basis she used to determine the Four-Tail's previous movement trajectory, Qingming knew that as long as he killed the other party, his goal would be achieved.

With this thought in mind, Qing Ming no longer wasted time. He first avoided the kunai and shurikens thrown by the three Rock Ninjas in front of him.

Then, he raised his hands, formed seals, and performed the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique".

bang~
As a cloud of chakra smoke dissipated, dozens of figures appeared on the scene.

These shadow clones inherited Qingming's will.

Therefore, without his instructions, it split into two parts.

Among them, three of them rushed towards the three attacking Iwagakure ninjas, while the remaining ones rushed towards the group of Iwagakure ninjas who had surrounded him before.

That's right, these Rock Ninjas have already reacted and are now rushing towards him together.

Although it is unlikely that a dozen shadow clones can kill all these people, it is no problem to stop them for a short time.

Taking this opportunity, Qingming threw a few smoke bombs again to hide his figure.

In the smoke, the Mangekyō Sharingan opened again, and the ability of 'Heavenly Guard' was activated again by Qingming.

The next moment, he disappeared as if he was walking in a parallel world. He walked out of the smoke, crossed the battlefield, and came to the four people who were trembling in fear at the back.

That's right, there were four people. The two Rock Ninjas who used Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall to block the fire dragon's attack also joined the team protecting the female Rock Ninja.

In this way, plus the Iwagakure who had earlier pounced on the opponent and pushed him away, there were four people in total.

However, these four people at this moment were like blind people, turning a blind eye to Qingming in front of them.

Qing Ming walked around the three people outside and came to the female Rock Ninja. He opened his Byakugan and observed her carefully, especially the chakra in her body.

You know what, when he took a closer look, he actually saw some clues.

The other person's chakra seems to be a little different from that of ordinary people, a little more.
Qing Ming pondered for a long time, not knowing how to describe it.

In short, there is a sense of strangeness.

Just as he was thinking, a kunai suddenly appeared in front of him and pierced his neck.

This is because he was under the protection of "Tian Zhi Yu", otherwise his neck would have been pierced by this blow.

The one who delivered this attack was none other than the female Iwa Ninja he was observing closely.

The other three Iwagakure ninjas saw her actions and immediately perked up. They looked around and asked, "Tsukiko, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Imamura Tsukiko frowned, but did not hide anything and said directly: "I don't know why, but I always feel like someone is spying on me, and from a very close distance."

"what?"

The three people outside were all shocked when they heard this.

Then, he quickly looked at the place where Imamura Tsukiko had just attacked.

But they knew that Imamura Tsukiko was a perceptive ninja and her feelings could not be ignored.

Immediately, a ninja also threw the kunai in his hand and shot it at Qingming.

Of course, he couldn't see Qingming, and he just shot at the place where Imamura Tsukiko had just attacked. Unfortunately, he still couldn't hurt Qingming at all.

Seeing this, an Iwagakure ninja said, "Tsukiko, use your perception ninjutsu to check the surroundings, and we will be on guard."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Imamura Tsukiko did not hesitate. She immediately put away the kunai in her hand and began to form seals.

Soon, the other party completed the seal.

Seeing this, the others instinctively breathed a sigh of relief and planned to wait for Imamura Tsukiko's investigation results.

But at this moment, Qingming showed up.

He swung his right hand, and a layer of chakra condensed on his palm, like an extremely sharp scalpel, cutting straight into Imamura Tsukiko's carotid artery.

"what?"

"careful!"

Screams and warnings sounded almost at the same time.

I don’t know whether Imamura Tsukiko is always vigilant in her heart, or whether her perception is really that sharp.

In short, the moment Qingming's palm touched her neck, she turned sideways to avoid the attack.

A shallow blood mark appeared on Imamura Tsukiko's neck, causing her to gasp for breath and her whole body was soaked with sweat.

It was just a little bit off. If her reaction had been half a second slower, she would probably be dead now.

Seeing Imamura Tsukiko with a look of relief, Qingming did not try to continue chasing her.

He dodged an attack from the nearest Iwagakure ninja, then raised his hands to form seals and performed the ninjutsu at the fastest speed - Lightning Release: Thunder Prison!
In an instant, blinding lightning burst out from his body, accompanied by a deafening thunder. Dense lightning was summoned by him, forming a thunder prison covering an area of ​​several meters in radius.

Moreover, its coverage is expanding rapidly.

Almost immediately, the three Iwagakure ninjas who were protecting Imamura Tsukiko were attacked.

The ninja's high attack and low defense attributes left them with no chance to resist, and under Qingming's deliberate care, they were turned into three charred corpses.

On the contrary, it was Imamura Tsukiko who actually survived.

It wasn't that Qing Ming was holding back on purpose, but that the other party blocked the intensive lightning attack.

It can be seen that at this time, a layer of scarlet chakra similar to the tailed beast coat appeared on the opponent's body. No, it was the scarlet chakra of the tailed beast coat.

It was this layer of chakra that blocked the dense lightning attacks.

At this time, Qingming finally understood why the other party's chakra gave him a strange feeling?
It turns out that he is also a fake Jinchūriki!
Because Imamura Tsukiko no longer concealed herself, Qingming could now easily see the other person's condition.

Obviously, just like Kong, he is a low-profile Jinchūriki created using the chakra fragments of the tailed beast.

However, the Nine-Tails Chakra is sealed in Sora's body, while the Four-Tails Chakra is sealed in Imamura Tsukiko's body.

Since the fake Jinchuriki of Kong will have a special reaction in his body's chakra when he meets Naruto, the real Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Then it makes sense that Imamura Tsukiko, with the help of the Iwagakure Village, could sense Lao Zi's location based on some mysterious connection.

This way things will be easier.

Just as he had planned before, as long as he could get rid of the opponent, he wouldn't have to worry about exposing his position.

Qingming doesn't believe that the Iwagakure Village can find another fake Four-Tails Jinchuriki.

With this thought in mind, Qing Ming no longer hesitated, and he flashed in front of Imamura Tsukiko.

Then, before the opponent could react, he activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and cast an illusion to control the opponent.

Then, he raised his hands, formed seals, and performed the 'Senro Wanxiang Seal', sealing the Four-Tails' chakra back into its body.

After doing all this, Qing Ming once again created a shadow clone to replace himself, then locked his mind on the island in the southern waters of the Land of Fire, and with Imamura Tsukiko, he launched the 'Flying Thunder God Technique'!
brush~
In just a moment, the two disappeared from the spot.
