Chapter 125 Fishing in Troubled Waters

A few kilometers away from the battlefield, Qingming occupied a rock bear's cave and was practicing cross-legged inside.

He used the 'Heart-Reflecting Technique' over and over again, stimulating the brain to produce that special chakra, which in turn prompted the Sharingan to evolve.

After a moment, Qingming opened his eyes, sighed, and shook his head, saying, "Oh, it's too slow!"

Without the extra chakra supplied by the 'Chakra Battery', the only chakra he could use every day was the 17,000 points that he could restore, and his practice speed suddenly slowed down.

Even if he had stopped practicing other skills and used most of his chakra on the 'Heart-Reflecting Technique', he could still only gain half of his previous proficiency, about 100 points.

And this, converted into the evolution of the Sharingan, is about 50 points.

In this way, he needs at least 165 days, more than five months, to evolve the Sharingan from 'Three Magatama (1702/10000)' to the Mangekyo.

During this period, his other skills will be forced to stagnate.

This is obviously unacceptable to Qingming.

"What should I do?"

Just as Qingming was thinking, a stream of chakra flowed into his body along with the mysterious connection, and along with it, the memory of the shadow clone.

Qingming closed his eyes, carefully flipped through these memories, and soon figured out the situation on the battlefield.

And this is also the main purpose of the "Shadow Clone Technique" developed by the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama, that is, reconnaissance and exploration.

Being in the enemy's territory, Qingming naturally did not dare to be careless, so he only sent out the shadow clone for reconnaissance, and the other party also completed the task he assigned very well.

After absorbing the memory of the shadow clone, although Qingming felt a little frustrated about the gap between himself and the third generation Raikage, he also keenly realized that this was a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

Now the Cloud Ninja and the Rock Ninja are fighting fiercely, attracting the attention of many forces in the ninja world, and there are definitely many hidden players like him around.

If these people can be captured and turned into 'chakra batteries', then the chakra he needs for practice will no longer be a problem.

The more Qingming thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

Even if they were in the enemy's territory, these 'chakra batteries' were destined to not be kept for a long time, but even if they were only used for one day, it would be a profit.

With this thought, Qingming walked out of the cave and began to circle the battlefield, searching for traces of other hidden players.

What? You mean the mission?

Please!

Isn't there a shadow clone?

Qingming nodded at the shadow clone that had just been separated beside him.

The shadow clone understood and immediately rushed to the direction of the battlefield, while Qingming continued to search for traces of other ninjas.

However, the ninjas who could be sent to perform such a mission basically had two brushes.

Therefore, it took nearly three hours for Qingming to find a suspicious target.

Although the other party was dressed like a Iwagakure Chunin, he did the same thing as his shadow clone, secretly observing the battle on the battlefield in the distance.

From this, Qingming concluded that the other party must be an imposter.

Of course, it doesn't matter if he is not. As long as he can provide chakra for him, his identity is not important.

With this thought, Qingming was about to step forward.

But he suddenly thought that if the other party was also using shadow clones to scout like him, then wouldn't his move alert the enemy?

And this is very likely.

'No, we have to think of a foolproof plan. '

Qingming stepped back a few steps, hid himself, and began to think about countermeasures.

After a long time, Qingming's eyes suddenly lit up and muttered: "This method should work."

As he said that, he raised his hands and performed the 'transformation technique' to transform himself into an Iwagakure Chunin.

Then, he showed up and ran towards the suspicious Iwagakure Ninja from a distance.

Without getting close, he shouted at the top of his voice: "The kid over there, the plan is about to start. Why don't you stay in your team and come here?"

Qingming's inexplicable words almost burned the CPU of the 'Iwa Ninja' in the distance.

However, before the other party could react, Qingming suddenly stopped.

After looking at the other party up and down for a few times, Qingming's face suddenly showed a look of horror, and stammered: "You, you are not one of us?"

After saying that, as if he thought of something, he hurriedly ran away.

Seeing this, the 'Iwa Ninja' didn't bother to think about how he was exposed, but instinctively chased after him.

Qingming was a little slower and was soon caught up.

The 'Iwa Ninja' didn't waste any words and chose to take action directly, trying to take down Qingming.

Qingming naturally resisted with all his strength. The two fought for a few minutes. Finally, Qingming found an opportunity and stabbed the kunai into the other party's shoulder.

Bang~

A cloud of chakra smoke dispersed, and the figure in front of him disappeared.

Then, the madness on Qingming's face disappeared, and he just whispered: "Is it really a shadow clone?"

Just as he worried, the other party was indeed a shadow clone. If he had acted rashly just now, he might have alerted the enemy by now.

As for why he didn't alert the enemy now, it was naturally the "plan" he mentioned.

"Next, it depends on whether the other party is fooled."

Muttering, Qingming didn't think about it anymore, and left the place in a flash, carefully hiding nearby.

A few minutes later, a figure wrapped in a black robe quietly approached. He carefully surveyed the traces in the field, as if he wanted to find the direction where Qingming left.

Seeing this scene, Qingming knew that his plan was successful.

The other party really couldn't resist the temptation and came to find out what the so-called "plan" was.

As for the other party's suspicion of his identity?

To be honest, if he didn't have a need for external chakra, he wouldn't have targeted other people who were also spies.

Similarly, other people didn't have this need, so they naturally wouldn't think of this.

After all, to a certain extent, these spies are also in the same group. In the absence of conflicts of interest, it is unlikely that they will attack each other.

Therefore, the other party is unlikely to doubt his identity.

And since his identity is not a problem, the words he said "inadvertently" are very credible.

In this way, Qingming is 80% sure that the other party will be interested in the "plan" he mentioned, and then follow this line to investigate.

Sure enough, the other party came not long after.

Qingming didn't waste words, and when he saw the opportunity, three shurikens flew out.

The man in black robe was also alert. He sensed the danger and immediately dodged to the side.

However, just as his feet landed on the ground, three more shurikens flew towards him.

The black-robed man had no time to dodge, so he could only pull out his kunai to block.

Ding~Ding~Ding~

Three crisp metal collision sounds were heard, and all three shurikens were knocked away.

But at the same time, he also lost the chance to escape.

Qingming flashed in front of the other party, and without saying a word, he swung the dagger in his hand.
