Chapter 108 Speculation

After separating from Kamijou Yoichi, Qingmei began to search for traces of the three Sunagakure chunin in the direction he pointed.

Thanks to his familiarity with this area and the powerful insight of the Sharingan, he soon found relevant clues.

After that, the pursuit continued along these clues, and finally caught up with them half an hour later.

At this time, these people are still heading towards the E12 area.

Combined with the words of the squad leader Ukyo Tashiro and the ninja dog Kiga - there are many enemies in area E12, Qingming can finally see that area E12 is the focus of this sand ninja attack.

"But why do so many Sand Ninja suddenly appear?"

Qing Ming was puzzled by this question.

You know, whether it's the E12 area next door, their E11 area, or even the entire nearby area, strictly speaking, they all belong to the second tier.

It is understandable that some infiltration troops occasionally appear, but it is basically impossible for the enemy to invade on a large scale like now.

unless

"The front line collapsed!"

Qing Ming was startled by his sudden thoughts, but quickly calmed down.

If the whole line collapses, then these are not the only enemies that will appear here.

By then, let alone area E12, I'm afraid the entire area they defend will be under attack.

But he hasn't seen any signs of that yet.

That said, the front line wasn't completely broken.

But the number of enemies did exceed the size of the infiltration force.

In this case, there is only one explanation, and that is that certain strongholds on the front line were breached, resulting in a gap in the defense line, and some Sand Ninja took advantage of it and launched a surprise attack.

"Well, that should be it!"

Although he hasn't received the exact information yet, Qing Ming feels that his guess is correct.

If that was the case, then these sand ninjas wouldn't be able to stay long.

After all, as long as the whole line does not collapse, Konoha will still have the ability to regain those strongholds.

By then, it will be time to close the door and beat the dog.

If these sand ninjas don't want to be left here, they must withdraw before Konoha retakes those strongholds.

After thinking about this clearly, Qing Ming felt that the gloom in his heart was gone, and the expression on his face could not help but relax a little.

For him, being able to remain stable is the best result, because time is on his side, and as long as he delays it long enough, his strength will continue to grow.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind.

Qing Ming looked at the three figures below, suddenly raised his hands, and completed the "Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique" seal at an extremely fast speed.

Then he opened his mouth and spit out a large amount of high-temperature flames. These flames turned into dozens or hundreds of fire balls almost as soon as they appeared.

Obviously, with the continuous improvement of proficiency in the 'Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique', the time for the flame to differentiate into a fire ball is shortened sharply.

Now, the gaps are almost invisible, as if the flames turned into balls of fire as soon as they came out of his mouth.

This seems to be similar to learning the ‘Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique’ for the first time.

But don't forget, when you first learn the 'Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique', those fire balls appear one by one.

But now, his enemies need to face the pursuit and interception of dozens or hundreds of fire balls at the same time.

Despite this small difference, when the enemy is avoiding, the difficulty increases exponentially.

Just like now, if the three Sunagakure chunin faced a sneak attack from the previous level 2 "Fire Release: Phoenix Senkyo Jutsu", they would still be able to escape safely.

Now.

It is impossible for the other party to avoid Qing Ming's attack without paying some price.

Sensing the danger, the three sand ninjas immediately said on guard, "Who?"

However, before they could find any trace of Qing Ming, hundreds of fireballs had already smashed towards them.

The speed was so fast and the angle was so tricky that they had no choice but to dodge.

But their movements, in Qing Ming's eyes, were full of loopholes. Qing Ming Ming controlled the fire ball to surround the three of them without even thinking about it.

The first one to be hit was the taijutsu ninja who was 17 or 18 years old. Although the opponent was fast, he was not fast enough.

In the end, his retreat was blocked by more than a dozen fire balls, and he withstood the attack of two fire balls. His chest and right arm were scorched black.

He fell to the ground on the spot and lost his fighting strength.

The second person to be tricked was the female ninja who was in her early twenties and was good at sonic illusions.

However, the opponent used a substitute technique at the critical moment and escaped.

As for the puppet master

The other party was taken care of by Qing Ming. Even though he was protected by a puppet, he was still hit by a fire ball and suffered serious injuries.

Even the puppet was subjected to concentrated bombing, causing some damage to its body.

After a few breaths, the fire ball disappeared and the place became quiet again.

The female ninja and the puppet master stood side by side, looking towards the direction where the fire ball flew from just now, but saw nothing.

This made the two of them look quite ugly.

After a moment of silence, the female ninja suddenly nodded towards the puppet master, seemingly hinting at something.

Upon seeing this, the puppet master immediately responded with a knowing look, then quickly took out two earplugs and plugged his ears.

The next moment, I saw the female ninja raising her hands and forming seals quickly.

At the same time, her mouth opened slightly, apparently preparing to perform some kind of sonic illusion, in an attempt to force the secret attacker to reveal herself.

However, before she could finish the spell, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her, followed by a pair of scarlet Sharingan eyes, occupying her entire field of vision.

‘Sharingan? Illusion? ’

Otowa was horrified and tried to remove the illusion immediately.

But as soon as she started, she felt the chakra in her body rapidly draining away, and then there was a pain in the back of her neck, and she fainted.

The person who made the move was none other than Qingming, who had been watching in secret for a long time.

Because he didn’t know how much resistance the Sharingan had to the sound wave illusion, he took the initiative to attack before the other party made a move.

The process was also very smooth. With the perfect realm of ‘flash body technique’ and superb breath-holding skills, he came to the other party in a blink of an eye without anyone noticing.

Because he was distracted by the illusion, he had no time to react and was directly controlled by his ‘Illusion Sharingan’.

Then he extracted chakra, knocked him out, and took him away.

During this time, the puppeteer was only concerned about his own escape, and had no intention of stopping him at all.

It was not that he didn't want to, but he didn't dare to, because he had recognized Qingming's identity and knew his strength, so he didn't dare to stay for a moment.

Unfortunately, he didn't want to provoke Qingming, but it didn't mean that Qingming would let him go.

After dealing with Yinyu, Qingming did the same thing again, draining the chakra of the physical ninja and knocking him out, and then immediately chased after the puppeteer.

Needless to say, even if the opponent had hidden a hand and suddenly summoned a pretty good puppet, it still couldn't last long in Qingming's hands, and soon followed the footsteps of his two teammates.

Qingming looked at the three unconscious people on the ground, knowing that the main reason why these people behaved so badly in front of him was that he succeeded in sneak attacking first.

If they hadn't been caught off guard by him at the beginning, these three people would not have been defeated so quickly and so thoroughly.

Of course, this was also because they had just fought a fierce battle with three Konoha ninjas and their strength was not at its peak.

But in general, Qingming's strength was far beyond theirs, which was why they couldn't even struggle properly.

However, the two sides were enemies, and Qingming would not show mercy to the other side.
