Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 920: The Hidden Cloud Village and the First

Unlike the Iwagakure Village and the Kirigakure Village, which are located in the plains and valleys respectively and are low in altitude, the Kumogakure Village is directly hidden in a towering mountain.

The various buildings in the village are basically built between steep peaks, usually connected by suspension bridges, plank roads and iron cables, forming a unique three-dimensional structure.

Coupled with the thick clouds and fog brought by the high altitude, the Hidden Cloud Village is naturally confusing.

If ordinary people walk into it and are not familiar with the environment, it is easy to get lost.

In addition, the overly thick clouds and fog also make the environment here very harsh. Thunderstorms occur from time to time, hitting the mountains and buildings.

In this case, wooden buildings are obviously not suitable.

Therefore, the Hidden Cloud Village mostly uses stone as a building material.

This also makes the buildings in Yunyin Village naturally have a sense of ruggedness.

However, don’t think that the buildings in the Hidden Cloud Village are primitive and backward just because most of them are made of stone.

On the contrary, among the five major ninja villages, the Hidden Cloud Village has the most advanced technology.

For example, the giant chakra cannon used to bombard the moon in later generations was developed by the Hidden Cloud Village.

This is a strategic weapon that is no less powerful than the tailed beasts.

In fact, to some extent, it is even more powerful than the tailed beasts.

After all, there are only nine tailed beasts, but the chakra cannon can be replicated infinitely if there are enough materials.

Of course, at this stage, the Hidden Cloud Village should not have successfully developed such a weapon.

Floating in the air, Qingming looked at the Hidden Cloud Village in the distance, which was full of haziness and mystery under the moonlight. The above information flashed quickly through his mind.

After pondering for a while, Qingming suddenly untied the 'Seal of All Things' between his eyebrows, revealing the white eyes sealed inside.

This eye is open.

The next moment, everything within a kilometer radius came into his sight.

Qingming looked forward, penetrated the clouds, and saw the Hidden Cloud Village inside.

Because the village is located between a number of mountains and the various buildings are too scattered, the Hidden Cloud Village did not set up a perception barrier covering the entire village.

However, this does not mean that their defense is weak.

On the contrary, precisely because they could not sense the existence of the barrier, the Hidden Cloud Village paid special attention to the entrances and exits leading to the village.

To this end, they even trained a large number of perception ninjas who were specifically responsible for keeping an eye on these places.

In this way, coupled with the militarized management of the Hidden Cloud Village, its defense is even better than that of other villages.

It was precisely because of this that Qingming did not rashly step into the Hidden Cloud Village.

However, the presence of these guards also gave Qingming the opportunity to take action quietly.

under night.

Qingming hid in the clouds and flew around the mountain range where the Hidden Cloud Village was located. From time to time, he opened his Byakugan to observe the people who were on guard at the periphery.

That’s right, Qingming plans to take action against these people.

Anyway, his purpose was just to place a few hidden players. It didn't matter who the hidden players were, what their identities were, or whether their positions were important.

Thinking of this, Qingming quickly locked on a target.

However, whether it was because of his good luck or some kind of inevitability, the person he targeted turned out to be someone else's.

He was wearing a mask and a black robe, and was obviously an Anbu ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village.

At this moment, the other party was staying alone in a crevice of a rock wall, quietly looking at the road below leading to the Hidden Cloud Village.

And on that road, there was a team of Cloud Ninjas on guard.

Obviously, this is a regular arrangement of one light and one dark.

The four Cloud Ninjas on the road were visible sentinels, while the Cloud Hidden Ninjas on the cliff were covert sentinels.

As a secret sentry, it is normal for him to be left alone.

Therefore, it was only natural that he would target me again.

It is for this reason that Qingming said that this was a kind of inevitability.

Qing Ming collected his thoughts and stopped having wild thoughts. He carefully flew above the Kumogakure ANBU, hid behind a rock, and released the 'Wind Style: Wind Wings'.

Then, a weak ball of chakra was condensed at the soles of his feet, just enough to support his weight, allowing him to walk on the cliff.

However, Qingming did not rush to approach the Kumogakure Anbu immediately, but first activated the pupil technique of his left eye - Tian Zhi Yu!

He disappeared silently. It was only then that he stepped on the cliff and approached the Kumogakure ANBU below.

At first, everything was normal.

However, as he got closer and closer to the other party, the Kumogakure Anbu suddenly became anxious and restless, perhaps because he noticed something or out of some instinct.

He looked around, trying to figure out something.

But unfortunately, no matter how he searched, he found nothing unusual.

In fact, his eyes swept across the area where Qingming was approaching more than once, but he did not detect his presence.

Indeed, after performing the "Heavenly Control", some people could still vaguely detect his presence.

However, these people definitely do not include the Kumogakure Anbu below.

Long before Qing Ming took action, he used his Byakugan to observe the amount of chakra in the opponent's body and judged his approximate strength.

This Kumogakure Anbu is at most a special jonin, and not even a special jonin who specializes in perception.

It is simply a pipe dream to want to discover such a ninja.

Now, the reason why the other party noticed something unusual was probably because he looked at the other party for too long, which triggered his spiritual perception, and at the same time he was too close to the other party.

Otherwise, with the other party's strength, it would be impossible for him to discover anything unusual before he came in front of him.

However, all this is not important. Qingming continues to move forward without stopping.

In the sight, the Kumogakure Anbu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to trust his intuition and prepared to call the four Kumogakure ninjas below to search the surrounding areas for places where people could be hidden.

However, he made his decision too late.

When he walked out of the crevice in the cliff and was about to take action, Qingming had already arrived in front of him.

He released the 'Heavenly Guard' and appeared silently less than half a meter in front of the Kumogakure ANBU.

'what? '

The Kumogakure Anbu member was startled and was about to shout, while at the same time he made a move to distance himself.

But unfortunately, the battle was over the moment he saw Qingming's eyes.

In just a moment, this Kumogakure Anbu was controlled by Qing Ming's 'Illusion Sharingan'.

Qing Ming reached out and grabbed the other person, then pushed him forward, and the two of them hid in the gap in the cliff behind them.

After a while, Qingming carefully stuck his head out and glanced at the four Cloud Ninjas below.

They were still together, seemingly chatting, completely unaware of what was happening above their heads.

Qingming breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, without wasting any time, he immediately raised his hands to form a seal, and cast the 'Heart Sealing Soul Locking Seal of Contract and Instant Body' that he had mastered to the maximum level.

slap~
Qing Ming pressed his palm on the chest of the Yunyin Anbu member.

The next moment, densely packed sealing spells appeared from his palms, like a big net, covering the entire body of this Kumogakure Anbu member.

However, this situation did not last long.

Soon, they disappeared.

However, only Qingming knew that they did not disappear, but were imprinted on each other's souls.

Qingming carefully set prohibitions for him.

Then, leaving a hint for the other party to keep an eye on the Two-Tails' movements, he used his Mangekyō Sharingan to erase the other party's memory of the last few minutes.

Not only that, he also controlled the other person's body, returned to where he was before, and blurred his sense of time.

In this way, when he gets rid of the illusion, his first reaction will be that he was distracted and he will not think too much about it.

Qingming has tried this operation on many Rock Ninjas and Mist Ninjas and is very skilled at it.

So, he wasn't worried about anything going wrong.

After restoring everything, Qingming activated "Heaven's Control" again and quickly moved away from the Kumogakure Anbu.

About ten breaths after he left, the Kumogakure Anbu finally came to his senses.

Under the mask, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his heart felt empty, as if he had forgotten something.

After thinking for a while, he stuck his head out and looked around. After confirming that everything was normal, he concentrated again and performed his duty as a secret sentry.
