Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Chapter 593 Prelude to the decisive battle

Seeing that a companion died tragically in such a short period of time, the remaining Kirigakure masters felt sad, so they no longer thought about entanglement, but planned to break out of the encirclement as soon as possible.

However, if they want to leave, it still depends on whether Konoha will agree to it.

Thanks to the advantage of being a latecomer, Nara Kaiguang's arrangement was more targeted. Although the preparation time was short and not very perfect, it eventually formed a certain restraint situation.

Therefore, the Kirigakure jounin in the field felt very uncomfortable when fighting. He tried to escape several times but failed.

Qing Ming saw this opportunity and kept taking action. Based on the intelligence he and his shadow clones had just collected, Qing Ming launched sneak attacks on the Kirigakure jounin in the field.

And his relatively comprehensive abilities also added some help to his actions.

······

Time passes minute by minute.

Just when the third Kirigakure Jonin fell, the Kirigakure command finally received the news and immediately began to prepare for rescue.

However, Nara Keimitsu had already thought of this.

He directly ordered the troops on the front line to launch an all-out attack, and would never allow any Kirigakure Jonin on the battlefield to escape.

In this way, Commander Kirigakure had no personnel available for a while.

Commander Kirigakure couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the terrible consequences of the fall of all those Jonin.

After some hesitation, he decided to abandon his vehicle to save his commander, and directly ordered the middle genin on the battlefield near Qingming and others to move closer to the central battlefield.

He planned to use the lives of these genin to gain some chance of survival for the jounin present.

Not only that, he also sent the last reserve troops around him and rushed to the battlefield, preparing to support those Kirigakure jounin.

Although the number of jounin mobilized by Konoha was more because of the backup plan, it was not much more than the Kirigakure jonin who surrounded Qingming.

It's not that Nara Keimitsu doesn't want to mobilize more people, but there are only so many.

In order to overwhelm Kirigakure, he had already used his reserve force in advance.

It is not unreasonable for the two sides to remain in a stalemate on this battlefield for so long.

At least, in terms of high-end combat power, the gap is not very big.

Of course, this gap is not big, provided that Namikaze Minato and Qingmei did not attack with all their strength.

If the two of them burst out with all their strength, the fog ninja in Atsuzu Port would be 100% unstoppable.

However, both Namikaze Minato and Qingmei have their own concerns, so they have no plans to take action with all their strength.

Even so, in this contest between Jonin, with the two of them on Konoha's side, they still had an absolute advantage.

The death of the Kirigakure jounin continues.

At first, there were only some weaker special jounin, but as the battle progressed, some real jonin also began to die.

But as they stalled, a turn came.

First, there were those Kirigakure genin who worked hard without caring about their own safety. Although they could not pose a threat to Qingming and others, they could not handle the large number of people.

With their interference, those Kirigakure jonins could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, after waiting for a while, the reserve team belonging to Kirigakure also rushed over. The ninjas inside were all elite.

Although only some of them are jounin, the remaining chuunin also have good strength. Even on the jounin battlefield, they can still provide support.

In this way, the battle situation changed from a one-sided 'massacre' to an evenly matched melee.

Moreover, as more and more people join in from both sides, there is a gradual trend towards a decisive battle.

Facts have proved that Qing Ming's premonition was correct.

The siege and counter-siege caused by him eventually turned into a small decisive battle on this battlefield.

Of course, it can also be called the prelude to the decisive battle.

At this time, fighting was taking place everywhere near Youjin Port. The ninjas on both sides were already furious. Even if the sun went down, no one chose to retreat.

In other words, they dare not retreat.

In this situation, it depends on who can't hold on first. Once one side chooses to retreat first, it will inevitably be ruthlessly pursued by the other side.

At this time, the sacrifice is the greatest.

Not only is it difficult for the pursued party to defend, but also because the wounded cannot be transported in time. In this case, the casualties must be very large.

On the contrary, the winning side can treat the wounded calmly.

With the medical ninjutsu mastered by ninjas in the ninja world, as long as the injury is not too serious, it is basically possible to save it.

Such an increase and decrease will inevitably make both sides afraid to retreat unless both sides are exhausted.

At this time, if either side retreats, the other side will not dare to pursue it rashly, nor will it have the energy to pursue it.

This is the best time to stop the war.

Now, the ninjas of Konoha and Kirigakure are moving towards this stage.

······

In a flash, several hours passed.

It was late at night.

The moon and stars are sparse.

After fighting for a whole day and half a night, Nara Keimitsu and Kirigakure's commanders finally gave the order to retreat.

The ninjas on both sides dragged their own wounded, holding kunai, watching each other cautiously, and began to leave the battlefield one after another.

And this process will not be too peaceful after all.

From time to time, explosions and fighting sounds can be heard again on the battlefield.

Obviously, not everyone is so rational, and not every battlefield can be separated normally.

In the end, this process took nearly two hours.

It wasn't until late at night that the Konoha ninja and the Kirigakure ninja were completely separated.

At this time, the battlefield was filled with the smell of blood, which was nauseating to smell.

At a high point, Qing Ming stood on a branch of a tree, overlooking the entire battlefield, his eyes dim, wondering what he was thinking.

Time passes quietly.

At a certain moment, a figure appeared behind him.

Qingming didn't move, and then he heard the man say: "Qingming Jonin, Captain Nara asked you to come over."

Hearing this, Qing Ming turned around and looked at the person coming.

It was none other than a messenger chuunin under Nara Keimitsu.

Qing Ming didn't ask what happened to Qiguang Nara. After nodding, he used "Wind Release·Wind Wings" and flew into the sky, flying in the direction of the headquarters.

After a few minutes.

Qing Ming walked out of the headquarters.

Then he turned around and walked towards the hospital.

It was not a big deal for Nara Qimitsu to find him. He just wanted him to take action and treat some seriously injured people.

Logically speaking, there should be no more tasks for him today.

After all, he was tired enough today. First he risked his life to act as a bait, then he prevented the Kirigakure Jonin from breaking out, and finally he killed powerful enemies one after another in the melee.

In this case, not to mention giving him a few days off, at least let him have a good rest.

But there was no way. Today's unexpected battle caused a surge in the number of wounded, and there were no longer enough medical ninjas in the camp.

Nara Qiguang had no choice but to find him.

In this regard, Qing Ming did not refuse.

After all, he had previously thought about using practical exercises to quickly improve his proficiency in the 'Chakra Scalpel' and 'The Technique of Extracting Delicate Trouble', but he never had the chance.

Now, given the opportunity, he would not miss it.

As for tiredness

Compared with upgrading, some mental fatigue is nothing!
