Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Chapter 629: Retreat, Peace and Victory

After about a few minutes, the fog ninjas on the battlefield began to retreat in an orderly manner.

At the same time, news came from Nara Keiko, saying that the Mist Ninja troops being chased by them had changed their direction and were no longer heading towards the Aburatsu Port.

Combining the two, Qing Ming quickly guessed Kirigakure's plan. The other party probably saw that they could no longer defend this place, so they were preparing to withdraw.

However, just in case, he still flew into the sky and prepared to observe it from an overall perspective.

It turned out that Kirigakure was not playing any tricks and they were really preparing to withdraw.

Flying in the sky east of Youjin Port, Qingming looked into the distance.

It can be seen that on the sea, several Kirigakure warships are approaching rapidly.

Obviously, they were preparing to pick up the Kirigakure here, and the Kirigakure troops who failed to attack the Konoha camp retreated.

However, looking at the timing of its appearance, it is obvious that it was well prepared.

You know, in the past period of time, in order to prevent the warships from being destroyed by Konoha's infiltration team, they were docked at the port of Wave Country on the other side of the strait.

There is an advance base built by Konoha there, which can accommodate large warships.

However, it would take a long time to get there from there, even with a warship, and it was impossible to go so fast.

Therefore, these Kirigakure warships must have arrived nearby early, and now they have received the order and appeared immediately.

It can be seen that Kirigakure took the initiative to initiate this decisive battle this time and was not very confident, otherwise he would not have prepared such a back-up plan.

However, it was this backhand that allowed them to avoid being wiped out.

Qingming reported what he saw to the temporary captain here and Nara Qimitsu over at the camp, and asked them if they wanted to destroy the ship.

With his strength, it was not a big deal to destroy a few warships with few ninjas stationed there.

But in the end, both the temporary captain here and Nara Keimitsu gave a negative answer.

As for the reason

It is also very simple, that is, I am afraid that the Mist Ninja will be defeated.

With the warship here, these mist ninjas still have a glimmer of hope. If the warship is destroyed, then they will have no choice but to fight to the death.

In this way, Konoha's losses will inevitably increase greatly.

This is something neither the village nor the headquarters want to see.

So, they rejected the proposal.

Rather than killing more Mist Ninjas, they still hope to retain their own strength.

This will also make it easier to deal with other possible crises.

Moreover, this battle is said to be a decisive battle, but in fact it is Konoha and Kirigakure competing for the initiative in the final negotiation, and it does not involve the most fundamental interests.

The war has been going on until now, and the top leaders of both sides have reached a consensus that the war must stop.

Therefore, it is only necessary to determine the winner, there is no need to risk one's life.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Qing Ming threw these thoughts behind him.

He crossed his arms and floated in the air, watching the retreat of the Mist ninjas in Atsu Port at leisure.

It is true that neither the temporary captain nor Nara Qimitsu will let him destroy the warship, but this does not mean that they will let the fog ninja leave easily.

The existence of the warship only gave the Mist Ninjas a hope, so that they would not be completely defeated. During this period, the pursuit was impossible to stop.

······

Ding Dang Dang~

Boom boom boom~

The fierce fighting continued.

Qing Ming just watched quietly.

Suddenly, he seemed to notice something and looked up to the southwest.

There, he felt a powerful wave of chakra.

After a moment's hesitation, Qing Ming raised his hands, crossed them to form the 'ren' seal, and performed the 'shadow clone technique'.

Bang~

As a cloud of chakra smoke dissipated, a shadow clone with wings on its back appeared beside him.

Qing Ming nodded at the other party and asked him to stay where he was.

And he himself flew towards the place where the chakra exploded.

The flying speed of 'Wind Release·Wind Wings' was very fast, and he arrived at his destination in less than a minute. As you can see, this place has turned into a vast ocean.

Qingming's Sharingan turned rapidly, and soon saw a familiar figure in the middle of the water.

It was none other than Kisame Kisaki.

A month ago, he had attracted an investigation from the other party for harvesting the chakra of the Mist Ninja.

At that time, he also defeated a shadow clone of the opponent.

I never thought that I would see each other again today.

At this time, he was still dressed as a Kirigakure Anbu, wearing a black robe and a mask, and looked like he should not be approached by strangers.

but

"Why does it appear here?"

Qing Ming was confused.

He glanced at the water that appeared out of thin air on the ground, as well as the fog ninja behind the opponent, and the slightly embarrassed Konoha pursuit force in front, and he immediately understood something.

This work is compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

If his guess was correct, the other party was rushing to help his own troops evacuate, and the water under his feet was the handiwork of the other party.

Just as he was observing the other party, Kisame Inikigaki also noticed him.

Without any hesitation, Kisame Kisaki immediately formed a seal and performed the ninjutsu—Water Release: Senshoku Samera!

In the blink of an eye, thousands of sharks were condensed by him, and they rushed towards the pursuing troops of Konoha in front without fear of death.

Konoha's pursuing troops were caught off guard by this move and could only passively resist.

Taking this opportunity, Inikisaki Kisame shouted to the people behind him: "Retreat!"

Hearing this, the group of fog ninjas did not hesitate at all, and immediately, led by several jounin, stepped on the water and rushed towards the coastline.

Upon seeing this, Qing Ming flapped his wings and immediately came to the sky above them.

Although Konoha did not intend to kill all these mist ninjas this time, it did not prevent him from intervening.

Turning sideways to avoid several incoming shurikens, he quickly formed seals and performed the ninjutsu - Fire Release and the Fireball Jutsu!

The huge fireball appeared again, emitting infinite light and heat, and hit the fog ninjas below.

However, unlike those at Atsuzu Port, where the high-end combat power of the Mist ninjas was unable to be used, the surviving Mist ninjas here were not only stronger, but also freer.

Therefore, at the first moment, someone took action, using water escape to attack the fireball.

Then the second person and the third person

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight ninjutsus bombarded the fireball one after another.

Affected by this impact, the fireball could no longer maintain its shape and exploded violently.

A large amount of fire rain fell, but it was avoided by other fog ninjas.

Not only that, they also took this opportunity to launch a counterattack against Qing Ming.

Especially Kisame Kisame, the opponent directly used the 'Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique', summoned a shark missile, flew into the sky, and chased Qingming.

Qing Ming had been avoiding other people's attacks, but suddenly suffered such a blow and was forced to stay away from the mist ninja below.

Taking this opportunity, the mist ninjas immediately ran further forward.

After that, Qing Ming symbolically cooperated with the Konoha troops below and pursued them for a certain distance.

Then, he left here and returned to the battlefield of Youjin Port.

Well.

To say it is a battlefield is no longer accurate.

With the Mist Ninja's withdrawal, peace has returned to the place.

Now, except for some wounded Konoha people, there are only dilapidated buildings left in Aburatsu Port.

Qingming looked into the distance and saw a battlefield farther east. The Konoha troops headed by the older jounin were still chasing the mist ninja who had escaped.

Now, the two sides have reached the coast, not far from the Kirigakure warship.

Qing Ming did not go there to join in the fun, but transformed into a medical ninja and began to treat the wounded left here.
