Chapter 164: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road

At the same time.

Other Konoha jonins also started their own tasks.

I saw that some of them suddenly left the battle, then quickly dispersed and began to organize the Konoha mid-level ninjas in the field to evacuate.

That's right, evacuate.

Their mission is to contain the support forces of the Hidden Rock Village, not to die, and fighting and retreating is undoubtedly the best choice.

There is no point in staying here, except being surrounded.

And all of this is planned.

Therefore, the Konoha team reorganized very quickly. Not long after receiving the order, more than a dozen small teams with jonin as the core were formed.

During this period, those Hidden Rock Mid-level ninjas also tried to obstruct.

But because their own jonins were entangled, there was no high-end force to deal with the jonins of the various teams of Konoha, and there was no unified and effective command, so it did not cause much waves.

A few minutes later, a group of Konoha ninjas successfully left the battle.

It was also at this time that the Konoha jonins who were entangled with the Hidden Rock Village jonins began to withdraw from the battle one after another.

Most of them joined the main force and followed the main force, but there were also a few people who rushed out of the team and came to the front like Qingming.

They were all members of the combat group, responsible for clearing the way for the entire team.

As for why they had to go "back"?

The reason was simple, so that when teammates from other bases broke through the defense line of the Hidden Rock Village, they could join them faster.

In this way, their safety could also be guaranteed.

Looking at the Konoha ninjas who were gradually going away, an Iwagakure Chunin looked at an Iwagakure Jonin and said, "Captain, are you still going to chase?"

Hearing this, the Iwagakure Jonin's eyes widened and shouted, "Nonsense! Of course we have to chase!"

After that, he organized the surviving Iwagakure ninjas and began to chase.

In this way, the two sides chased and fled, and half an hour passed quickly.

At the front of the team, Qingming, who was moving rapidly, suddenly stopped, and then flashed and retreated quickly to the back.

The next moment, several kunai shot from the front and nailed to the tree branch where he had just stood.

Then, a "sizzle" sound was heard, and the detonating talismans tied to the backs of the kunai were seen burning rapidly.

The next moment, a violent explosion sounded, and several fireballs rose up, instantly igniting the surrounding trees.

Qingming was not injured because he dodged in time.

He stood on a tree branch, looking at the dense figures that suddenly appeared in front of him, and immediately knew that their way was cut off.

"I just don't know if there are enemies on both wings?"

Thinking of this in his heart, Qingming took out a whistle from his arms, and then quickly blew it according to a certain pattern.

This whistle is specially made, and the sound it emits can be heard from a long distance.

Therefore, as long as the secret code is agreed in advance, simple information can be transmitted at a certain distance.

However, the sound of this whistle is very easy to recognize, so it can only be used in a situation like now where it is almost obvious, otherwise it is easy to expose the whereabouts.

After sending the signal, Qingming put away the whistle in his hand.

In front of him, those Rock Ninjas didn't care about what he did at all, and seemed to think they had been defeated, which gave Qingming a bad feeling.

However, he quickly put these distracting thoughts behind him and concentrated on dealing with the situation in front of him.

His eyes swept over these Rock Ninjas, a total of twenty people, including two Jonin, eight Chunin, and ten Genin.

If there were only these people, he would still have the strength to fight, but.

Qingming looked into the distance, through the gaps between the crowd and the woods, he could vaguely see that there were more Rock Ninjas gathering here in the distance.

Obviously, the twenty people in front of him were just the vanguard, and their main force was behind.

"In this case, we can only retreat first"

With this thought, Qingming turned around without hesitation and planned to leave first.

But at this moment, a sense of crisis suddenly came over him, making his hair stand on end, and Qingming leaned back almost instinctively.

The next moment, a kunai with a cold glow passed in front of his eyes, and the sharp breath it brought almost tore his face.

‘Wind escape? ! ’

This thought flashed through Qingming’s mind, and then he looked at the owner of the kunai with his peripheral vision.

In just a moment, his expression froze.

There was no other reason, he knew the person who came, and it was the murderer who killed Mizutani Shizuko, the young jonin of Iwagakure Village - Ohara Hideji.

A few months ago, Iwagakure Village and Sand Village jointly raided the Konoha headquarters, causing considerable losses to Konoha.

In response, Orochimaru planned the mission to attack the Iwagakure Village Logistics Transfer Center.

It was also during that mission that Mizutani Shizuko was pierced through the throat by Ohara Hideji's kunai in order to save him, and died on the spot.

Until now, he still remembers the other party's last look, which was a lingering love for life.

At that time, he made up his mind to kill Ohara Hideji and avenge him.

But at that time, his Sharingan only had a single magatama, and his proficiency in the 'Konoha-style swordsmanship' was only at level 3.

In addition, the 'Magic·Jag-hang Technique' and the Three-door Fire-style Ninjutsu were also only at level 2, which was completely useless.

Therefore, Ohara Hideji only fought him in close combat, and he lost his temper.

If it weren't for the critical moment, when the mission was over, he would have left the battle at the cost of being injured and came to a Konoha jonin, and he would probably be dead now.

Since then, he decided to take revenge in the future.

Originally, he was thinking about finding an opportunity to investigate the other party's whereabouts after the mission was over.

Unexpectedly, he actually met him now.

It can be said that enemies meet on a narrow road!

As for how the other party came to him?

Qingming recalled the scene of the other party attacking him just now. How similar was it to the previous one?

Obviously, the other party probably used the stealth skill of "camouflage hiding technique" this time.

Only he reacted quickly and raised his head in time to avoid the attack, otherwise he might be killed by the other party.

All kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind, and Qingming looked at the person in front of him with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.

Being stared at like this, Ohara Hideji did not have the slightest fear, and even had a little excitement.

From the other party's eyes, Qingming knew that the other party also recognized him.

"This is the best. If the other party doesn't even remember who I am, then there is no point in killing the other party."

Qingming said in his heart.

At the same time, Ohara Hideji suddenly turned his wrist, retracted the kunai that was stabbed out diagonally, and then cut it horizontally, attacking his throat directly.

If it was at the beginning, he might not be able to react at this moment.

But now

Qingming suddenly opened his Sharingan, and at the moment of hypnosis, he kicked the tree branch with both feet and retreated.

Ohara Hideji saw Qingming's scarlet three-magatama Sharingan and immediately looked away.

During this period, although his hands did not stop moving, without visual guidance, it was inevitable that he slowed down a bit.

At this moment, Qingming avoided the attack and appeared on another tree branch.
