Chapter 272 Return

Qingming naturally didn't know about the secret contact between Aburame Ryoma and Orochimaru.

At this time, he was on his way back.

Although the base camp asked him to return as soon as possible, Qing Ming was still in no hurry. He stopped and stopped along the way and took a certain amount of time to practice every day.

Therefore, it was not until the afternoon of the third day that he returned to the base camp.

After a few months, Qing Ming couldn't help but feel a little dazed when he returned to this familiar place.

I think back then, when he had just graduated, his first stop on the battlefield in the Kingdom of Rain was to perform some logistical patrol tasks here.

Unconsciously, more than a year has passed, and his strength has improved a lot, while the teachers and classmates who were with him have long been buried on the battlefield.

"Why"

With a sigh, Qing Ming stopped lingering and immediately walked deeper into the base camp.

Along the way, he met several waves of patrol teams, verified his identity several times, passed through several lines of defense, and finally arrived at the central base camp.

When he came to the mission center and completed the registration, the other party did not assign him a mission immediately, but gave him three days of vacation.

During these three days, he could move around as he pleased as long as he did not leave the base camp area.

After walking out of the mission center, Qing Ming looked back at the signboard and muttered: "Three days of holiday. Why does it feel like I've been eating for a while?"

Shaking his head, Qing Ming stopped thinking about it.

Since the other party gave him three days off, he would use it first, and as for what happens next

Talk about it later!

Of course, these three days cannot be wasted, and cultivation must continue.

However, before practicing, there is one more thing to do.

Rub~

Qing Ming pulled out the short sword from his waist.

He glanced at this ordinary weapon, then inserted it back into his waist, and then walked straight to the Uchiha clan's base camp.

It has been almost two months, and there is still no news about the support he applied for from the clan. Now that he has returned to the base camp, he wants to see what is going on?

Soon, he found the person in charge of the Uchiha clan's battlefield here - an old elder.

Well.

It is an exaggeration to say that he is old, as the other party is only in his early fifties.

However, in the ninja world, where the average person is less than thirty years old, fifty is considered a long life.

Coupled with the hidden wounds left by fighting on the battlefield in his early years, his appearance appears to be older than his actual age, so it is okay to call him old.

Seeing Qing Ming coming over, the Uchiha elder smiled and said, "Hey, it's Qing Ming, are you back?"

Hearing this, Qing Ming's eyes narrowed and he asked: "Elder, do you know that I am coming back?"

"Hehehe~"

Hearing this, the Uchiha elder chuckled a few times.

Then, he said meaningfully: "Young Qingming, don't underestimate the intelligence capabilities of the clan. We also have people in the mission center. I knew about your transfer order the moment it was sent out."

Qing Ming heard this and thought about it. Although the Uchiha clan was vaguely squeezed out and suppressed by Konoha's top brass, as one of Konoha's wealthy families, they still had the intelligence and connections they should have.

That being the case

Qing Ming's eyes flickered, and he did not ask about his application for support in a hurry. Instead, he looked at the other party and asked respectfully: "Elder, do you know why the base camp transferred me back this time?"

Upon hearing Qing Ming's inquiry, the smile on Elder Uchiha's face quickly faded, and then he said: "It seems that you have noticed it too."

"Why!"

The Uchiha elder sighed softly and said, "I'm afraid this is Konoha's suppression of us again."

‘Konoha, us’

From the description of these two words alone, Qingming knew that this elder was probably a member of the radical faction within the Uchiha clan.

His words directly separated the Uchiha clan from Konoha, and also vaguely included him in his own faction.

Otherwise, pronouns like "we" would not be used.

For a moment, Qing meditated a lot, but did not refute loudly. He just waited quietly for the other party's subsequent words.

From the look on the other side, he seemed to know something.

Sure enough, I heard him continue: "Not just you, but also Shisui. Uh, Uchiha Shisui, you know, right?"

"Um."

Qingming nodded and said, "We competed in the Chunin Exam."

"Yes, it's him!"

The Uchiha elder replied and continued: "Not only you, Uchiha Shisui is also required to return to the base camp as soon as possible.

According to various intelligence analyses, it is very likely that you will follow the support troops and rush to the Kirigakure battlefield this time. "

"The Kirigakure battlefield?"

Qing Ming showed a hint of surprise.

As he said before, neither the Kirigakure battlefield nor the Sunagakure battlefield are friendly to the ninjas of the Uchiha clan.

The former is mostly good at the 'Kigakure Jutsu', which is a big limitation for Uchiha ninjas who rely on Sharingan to fight.

In addition, the Kirigakure battlefields are mainly located in the southeastern coastal areas of the Country of Fire, and they often enter the sea during battles.

This geographical environment is also a restriction for Uchiha ninjas who are generally good at fire escape.

The dangers of the combination of various factors can be imagined.

And the Sunagakure battlefield

Although it is not as dangerous as the Kirigakure battlefield, the Uchiha ninjas are equally uncomfortable there. The puppet master of Sunagakure Village is also a kind of restraint for them.

It's not just that they don't fight with their own bodies, which limits the performance of the Uchiha Ninja Sharingan.

This is especially because puppet masters are generally good at using poison. If they are slightly injured and do not receive timely treatment, they may die from the poison.

Of course, if you want to say that such a dangerous place is not only accessible to ninjas of the Uchiha clan, others can go there, so why can’t ninjas of the Uchiha clan not be able to go there?

Of course the ninjas of the Uchiha clan can go!

But the crux of the matter is that 80% of the ninjas of the Uchiha clan are deployed in these two battlefields, so the targeting should not be too obvious.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why the Uchiha clan rebelled later.

With this kind of differential treatment, the Uchiha clan would be a ghost if they didn't have any objections!

Of course, these have nothing to do with Qing Ming for the time being. He only knows that he is going to the Kirigakure battlefield next.

As for fear, there is no such thing as fear.

With his current strength, even the dangerous Kirigakure battlefield is nothing to him.

But he just felt a little unhappy.

Because the words of the Uchiha elder in front of him almost proved that someone was indeed plotting against him, and who was this person?

Qing Ming also had the answer in his heart.

After all, there are only a few people who can influence Orochimaru's decision-making.

Among them, Danzo, the old cunt, is the most suspicious.

Qing Ming did not forget that after the Chunin Examination, the other party sent people to intercept and kill him on the road.

"Fuck, do you want to kill this guy directly?"

This idea suddenly appeared in Qing Ming's mind.

But in the end he shook his head.

It wasn't that he couldn't do it or that he had some scruples, but that Danzo's whereabouts were too secretive.

The other party probably did too many bad things and was afraid of retaliation, so only the root ninja knew his whereabouts.

And the root ninjas also have the "Seal of the Tongue's Destruction", which prevents them from telling anything about Danzo, whether actively or passively.

This resulted in Qing Meditation being unable to obtain information from them.

Therefore, I can only give up for the time being.

However, Qing Ming has remembered this account. Whenever he has the opportunity in the future, he will definitely deal with the opponent as soon as possible.

As for whether it can be defeated?

What a joke!

If Danzo later had a Sharingan arm, he might have to work harder. After all, both 'Izanagi' and Mu Dun are difficult to deal with.

But Danzo now.

Not worth mentioning at all!
