Chapter 43 Targeting

After killing two Iwagakure Chunins, Qingming took a short break and was about to do the same thing, assisting Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko to kill another Iwagakure.

But at this moment, a subtle sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the side. Qingming instinctively retreated, and then saw a kunai passing by quickly in front of him.

Qingming suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where the kunai came from.

I saw an Iwagakure Jonin suddenly break away from the battle besieging Konoha Jonin and slowly walk towards him.

Qingming's face froze and he cursed inwardly: "MD, you don't follow the rules, you beat the younger ones and the older ones, right?!"

Before, it was fine to kill a few Genin and let the Chunin deal with him. Anyway, there is no qualitative difference between Genin and Chunin.

But now, it's a bit unreasonable for the Jonin to target him?

Qingming looked at Furukawa for help.

However, Gu Chuan only glanced at this side, secretly made a delaying gesture to him, and then ignored it.

Seeing this, Qingming gave up at that time.

‘It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others! ’

Qingming’s mind moved slightly, barely stabilized his mind, and began to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both sides.

First of all, his chakra is still enough for the time being.

In the previous few battles, he did not perform many ninjutsu, and the chakra consumed was limited. At present, there are about 1,500 points.

This is already the chakra amount of many Chunin in full state, which is enough to support a battle.

Secondly, his Sharingan has not been exposed.

If used well, it can rewrite the situation at a critical moment.

This is equivalent to having a bottom line, which allows him to face the enemy more calmly.

Finally, and most importantly, the opponent is definitely not a real Jonin, otherwise Gu Chuan would not let him delay time.

Because no matter the strength he usually shows or the fighting power he just burst out from killing enemies, it is not enough to fight against a real Jonin.

But since Furukawa asked him to delay time, it means that he has the ability to do this.

And with the strength he has shown so far, the limit of what he can deal with is a special jonin.

In other words, the opponent is most likely just a special jonin.

When he thought of this, Qingming felt more confident, and the tension of suddenly facing a jonin just now disappeared for the most part.

He was not sure about fighting a jonin who had experienced many battles and had comprehensive abilities, but if the enemy was just a special jonin with outstanding abilities, he would still dare to touch him.

However, before that, it would be better to leave this battlefield first.

In this way, when he had to use the Sharingan, he could also minimize the risk of exposure.

With this thought, Qingming suddenly performed the "Instant Body Technique" and rushed to the periphery of the battlefield behind.

Seeing this, Shiraishi Cangdou laughed grimly and immediately jumped up to chase him.

The two of them left the battlefield while chasing and fleeing.

·······

A few minutes later.

Somewhere in the forest.

Qingming was running fast.

Suddenly, several kunai attacked from behind. Qingming dodged sideways, and the kunai was nailed to the tree trunk in front, making a "sizzling" sound.

Qingming looked carefully and saw that there was an explosive talisman tied behind one of the kunai, with flames flickering on it, and it was about to explode.

Qingming said "not good" in his heart, and quickly retreated.

Boom~

A violent explosion sounded.

The red flames swept a distance of several meters.

The shock wave caused by the explosion of the explosive talisman spread outward at a speed visible to the naked eye, shaking the trees in the forest.

After a while, a cough sounded.

In the smoke and dust, a figure was vaguely seen struggling to get up.

The next moment, a kunai flew out and nailed the figure tightly.

"Ah!"

The figure seemed to be severely injured and screamed.

On the tree branch, Shiraishi Cangdou retracted his arm and watched all this expressionlessly.

Suddenly, several shurikens flew out from the smoke and dust, and attacked Bai Shi Cang Dou's face.

"Hmph! Trivial tricks."

Seeing this, Bai Shi Cang Dou snorted coldly, and the short knife across his waist was pulled out violently. Then there was a sound of ding-dong, and all the shurikens that attacked him were cut down with one blow.

The smoke and dust dissipated, Qing Ming walked out from behind the tree, and the residual shadow of the clone beside him dissipated with it.

This kind of phantom created by the "clone technique" can only play a little role in poor vision.

Head-on battle?

Forget it!

Looking away from the clone, Bai Shi Cang Dou looked at Qing Ming and said with interest: "Boy, are you willing to come out?"

Qing Ming said nothing.

The smile on Bai Shi Cang Dou's face faded, and he slightly raised the short blade in his hand and said: "Boy, are you ready to face death?"

As he spoke, he exuded a strong killing intent.

Those who are not strong-willed may give up resistance when facing this killing intent.

But who is Qingming?

He has long been determined to transcend this world, and his ambitions are so great that they are no longer limited to a village or a country. How could he be easily influenced by him? Orochimaru would be the better choice.

Seeing that Qingming remained calm, Bai Shi Cangdou finally put away his contempt and treated Qingming as an opponent who needed to be taken seriously.

The wind was still blowing.

One of them stood on a tree branch, and the other stood beside the tree trunk, not far away from each other, but no one spoke or took action, just staring at each other, as if they would stare at each other until dawn.

Suddenly, a leaf fell, blocking Qingming's sight for a moment.

The next moment, a sharp gust of wind came from the side, and Qingming squatted down without thinking.

The short blade cut through the air above Qingming's head. Bai Shi Cang Dou missed his attack and immediately chopped down with his backhand, slashing at the right side of Qingming's neck.

The sharp breath emanating from the short blade made Qingming's cheek hurt.

At the critical moment, Qingming raised his right arm and blocked Bai Shi Cang Dou's short blade with the kunai in his hand.

But at this moment, Bai Shi Cang Dou showed a smile of conspiracy.

Seeing this, Qingming's heart tightened inexplicably, and he immediately wanted to distance himself.

But it was too late.

The sound of electric current rang.

I saw a flash of lightning, and the dazzling blue lightning burst out from Bai Shi Cang Dou's palm, along the short blade, and passed to the kunai.

Qingming's right hand was numb, and the kunai fell to the ground with a clang.

Shiraishi Cangdou took the opportunity to swing the short blade in his hand. Even though Qingming tried his best to dodge, the short blade still cut his chest.

Qingming couldn't help but groan in pain.

Then, a smell of burnt flesh and blood came.

Qingming knew without looking that the wound on his chest was burnt by the lightning chakra attached to Shiraishi Cangdou's short blade.

The only thing to be thankful for was that he didn't have to worry about dying from excessive blood loss in a short period of time.

Was Shiraishi Cangdou kind?

The answer is of course no.

Although the lightning chakra attached to the short blade helped him stop bleeding, it also caused his body to fall into a state of temporary paralysis.

At this time, Qingming didn't care about hiding, and he opened the Sharingan with a thought.

In just a moment, his pupils turned from black to blood red, and a black jade as black as ink spun wildly in it.

There was no time to seal, and Qingming directly activated the hypnotic ability of the Sharingan.

The moment the two looked at each other, Shiraishi Cangdou's eyes changed from disbelief to confusion.

Qingming knew that this kind of control was unstable.

So, he pushed his feet against the ground and quickly retreated. At the same time, he flipped his palms, took out several shurikens from the ninja tool bag, and threw them out with force.
