Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Ghost Lantern Zhanyue didn't know what Qing Ming was thinking, nor did he care. He was just a little surprised when Qing Ming instantly recognized the secret technique he had performed.

After the surprise, there was a counterattack.

‘Water Escape: The Art of the Rich Water Wrist~’

In an instant, Oni Deng Zhanyue concentrated a large amount of water in his body into his right arm, and then swung out the dagger in his hand and struck Qing Ming's neck.

A strong sense of crisis came, and Qing Ming took half a step back, slightly distanced himself, then put the knife away and stood it at his side, trying to block the blow.

Ding~

The sound of metal clashing was louder than before.

The long sword and the short sword collided, and Qing Ming felt a strong force coming from him. The whole person was taken back several steps by this force.

‘What a force! ’

‘Is this the ‘Water Release: The Art of Water Escape’? ’

Qingming's Sharingan turned slightly and looked at the opponent's thick right arm, secretly feeling frightened.

Seeing Qing Ming retreating, Gui Deng Zhan Yue stepped forward again, swung the dagger in his right hand, and continued to attack Qing Ming.

Originally, Qing Ming could have avoided it.

But seeing the other party's appearance, he simply didn't avoid it.

He mobilized the chakra in his body, accurately strengthened the muscles in his arms and waist and abdomen based on the medical knowledge he had learned, and then swung a knife.

Ding~

A harsh metal collision sounded.

The long sword and the short sword collided. Qing Ming felt his wrist go numb, and the long sword almost came out of his hand.

He was in such a miserable state that Gui Deng Zhan Yue also felt uncomfortable.

In just an instant, his thick right arm returned to normal, obviously the ninjutsu was broken.

"You guy."

Ghost Deng Zhanyue looked at Qing Ming, who still looked young in front of him, and gritted his teeth.

However, Qing Ming didn't want to listen to the other party's nonsense. After the blow, he swung the knife again without any hesitation.

Seeing this, Ghost Lantern Zhanyue quickly raised his dagger to block.

But due to the lack of the blessing of the 'Water Release: The Art of Water Escape', in terms of strength, it is simply not comparable to Qing Ming.

Therefore, Qing Ming forced him to retreat continuously.

Seeing that this worked, Qing Ming simply stopped using any swordsmanship skills and just relied on brute force to continuously attack the opponent.

On the other side, Ghost Light Zhanyue was afraid of losing the initiative and did not dare to dodge easily. He could only follow and fight.

For a moment, the battle between the two people felt like a return to the original.

However, just as the two were fighting each other, several shurikens suddenly shot from a short distance and hit Qing Ming's vital parts.

Qing Ming sensed the danger at the first moment, so he ducked and avoided the attack.

At the same time, he looked in the direction from which the shuriken shot came.

He saw another Kirigakure jounin looking at him intently, as if he was about to attack again at any time.

Qingming recognized the other party. He was none other than the Kirigakure jounin who had previously teamed up with Onito Zangetsu to kill the Konoha jounin.

The opponent had been keeping an eye on him before, but due to his limited strength, he could not intervene in the battle between him and Ghost Lantern Zhanyue.

Now, it can be considered that he has waited for his opportunity.

咻咻咻~

Several more shurikens flew towards him.

The Sharingan in Qingming's pupils turned slightly.

In an instant, he locked the flight trajectories of these shurikens, and then swung several knives in succession, accurately attacking these shurikens.

However, after being delayed like this, Onito Zangetsu found an opportunity. He formed seals with his hands, turned his fingers into spears, and performed the ninjutsu - Water Release and Water Iron Cannon!

In an instant, a drop of liquid like a bullet shot out from his fingertips and hit Qing Ming's head at an extremely fast speed.

It is foreseeable that once Qing Ming is hit by this move, his head will most likely explode like a watermelon.

A strong sense of crisis hit his heart. Qing Ming caught a glimpse of the drop of liquid from the corner of his eye. Without any hesitation, he immediately poured a large amount of fire escape chakra into the long knife.

Then, he swung out instantly.

An extremely strong resistance came, and the blade in Qing Ming's hand collided with the bullet-shaped liquid, and exploded into each other the next moment.

The blazing flames burned, and Qing Ming felt a huge counterattack, and he took several steps back.

At the same time, the drop of liquid emitted by Ghost Lantern Zhanyue was evaporated by the blazing flames.

"Can this still happen?"

When Ghost Lantern Zhanyue saw this scene, his eyes suddenly widened.

He had thought that this move would not kill Qing Ming, but he did not expect that he would respond like this.

And this also caused some flaws in the cooperation between him and the Kirigakure jonin not far away.

Qingming seized this opportunity and used the 'Snap Sword Technique'. His whole body suddenly turned into an afterimage, and in an instant he came to the Kirigakure jounin not far away.

Phew~

A cold light flashed through.

Qing Ming waved the long knife in his hand.

Takeshima Ichiro felt the cold killing intent on it and quickly thought of taking a step back to avoid the blow.

However, in his field of vision, the long sword wielded by Qing Ming suddenly split into two and slashed at him from different angles.

"This is?"

Takeshima Ichiro was confused, and he couldn't help but pause when he retreated.

However, it was this moment of hesitation that made him completely passive.

Stab~

The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh was heard.

Although Ichiro Takeshima made the right response at the last moment, his mind was captured by the 'phantom sword technique' before.

Therefore, he still couldn't completely avoid the knife and was slashed on the arm by Qing Ming.

Tick ​​tock~

Tick ​​tock~

Blood flowed from Takeshima Ichiro's arm. Qingming kept on catching up with him and was about to cut him with a knife.

However, at this moment, a flash of lightning shot from a distance, turned into a rope, and went straight to his wrist.

Qingming glanced over there and saw that Yamada Shinichi was making a seal with his hands at this time, and a lightning rope shot out from his palms and came straight to him.

Looking at his chest again, a bandage was wrapped around it.

Obviously, the knife wound there had been initially treated by him, and his combat power had also recovered a little.

"Huh?"

Seeing the other party's appearance, Qingming suddenly thought of the guy who was seriously injured by him with the "Rasengan" before.

So, his eyes swept to both sides.

Then, he saw the man on the ground in the distance.

At this time, he was slumped on the ground, his face showing pain, blood stained his clothes red, and his appearance was as miserable as it could be.

Obviously, the injury caused by the "Rasengan" to him was much more serious than the knife wound suffered by Yamada Shinichi.

Even if the recovery time is longer, there is no improvement.

This makes Qingming feel a little relieved.

Retracting his gaze, Qingming paused, and then the whole person kicked the ground with both feet like pulling onions in dry land, and flew backwards.

And almost at the moment he left the original place, a lightning rope passed through the afterimage left by him, and hit nothing.

Qingming stabilized his body, glanced at the three people in front of him, thinking about how to take them down as soon as possible.

Similarly, Kizuna Zangetsu, Yamada Shinichi and Takeshima Ichiro also gathered together, staring at Qingming, thinking about how to join forces to kill him.

For a while, this battlefield fell into a strange silence.

Time passed by minute by minute.

At a certain moment, the four people in the field moved together.

Kizuna Zangetsu, Yamada Shinichi and Takeshima Ichiro suddenly separated, forming a "品" shape, and surrounded Qingming.

And what about Qingming?

While running, he suddenly raised his hands, crossed them to form the ‘嬣’ character seal, and performed the ninjutsu that ordinary ninjas would only perform when running for their lives - the Shadow Clone Technique!

In the blink of an eye, he split into three, becoming three people, and met Kizuna Zangetsu, Yamada Shinichi, and Takeshima Ichiro respectively.

The battle broke out instantly!
