Chapter 436 Retreat

"You really can't underestimate anyone!"

Qing Ming sighed unconsciously.

At the same time, I was also thinking in my mind that since a mere Ao could detect his abnormality with his Byakugan, then as he continued to use the Mangekyo Sharingan, more and more traces were revealed, and there was no reason for Konoha who had more Byakugan to discover No.

In fact, they might have discovered it a long time ago but just didn't make any announcement.

After all, he had activated the Mangekyou Sharingan several times in the past period. Although he tried to avoid everyone as much as possible, there were also times when he couldn't avoid it.

For example, when he was ambushed by the Kirigakure Anbu outside Eagle Mouth Cliff, without the help of the 'Heaven Control', he would have been unable to escape from the restrictions of the 'Four Mist Sealing Formation'.

At that time, there were ninjas from the Hyuga clan nearby.

There were other times that Qing Ming could hardly remember clearly.

You can't pray that all the time, the ninjas from the Hyuga clan in the team just don't notice it, right?

And the secret known by two people is no longer a secret.

No one can guarantee that they will not leak secrets.

To take a step back, even if they didn't leak the relevant secrets, would Konoha's senior management, especially Danzo's spies placed in the team, not think about how he escaped from the enemy's targets many times, and even defeated the strong with the weak?

And as long as they think about it, Konoha, who has more complete information, is obviously better able to guess what he is hiding.

Qing Ming estimated that it was now a time of war and it was necessary to be consistent with the outside world, so no one came to test him, otherwise there might have been flies around him.

But such peaceful days may be gone when the war ends.

Inexplicably, Qing Ming felt a sense of urgency in his heart.

Now, the only good thing is that Qing did not tell others the relevant information before investigating these things.

And after he discovered his secret, he had no chance to tell it.

In this way, there is no need to worry about leaks from Kirigakure Village for the time being.

As for Konoha

Qing Ming only has one thought, and that is to improve his strength as much as possible. Strength is the basis of everything. As long as he is strong enough, no matter what secrets he has, he can keep it.

Otherwise, no matter how well hidden it is, it is just a rat crossing the street.

After gathering his thoughts, Qing Ming stopped thinking and began to look through Qing's memories in an attempt to find more valuable information.

However, what disappointed him was that some secret information about this war had been sealed by Kirigakure Village with some kind of sealing technique. He could not guide his memory at all, and there was no way to check it.

After confirming that it had no remaining value, Qing Ming raised his hand to form a seal and released a huge fireball.

After completing the destruction of corpses and traces, he began to contact the shadow clone who went to the battlefield for him.

Soon, the 'Smart of the Heart' was successfully connected.

Following the exchange, Qing Ming quickly figured out the situation on the battlefield not far away. After thinking about it, he displayed the 'Wind Escape·Wind Wings' and flew over there.

······

at the same time.

On the battlefield about 1.5 kilometers away from the south gate of the Black Stone Stronghold, the Konoha ninjas were still fighting with the Kirigakure ninjas.

Although the disappearance of Ao, the team leader, had a big impact on the Kirigakure ninjas, they were able to stabilize in the end because of the presence of other Kirigakure jounin.

And, because of their numerical advantage, they gradually took the initiative.

On the contrary, both the survivors of the previous battle and the hundreds of ninjas who came to support Konoha were generally in poor condition.

Therefore, even with Uchiha Shisui, a master jounin, fighting fires everywhere, he was still unable to hold on.

As for Qingming

He is just a shadow clone. On such a chaotic battlefield, he cannot play a big role and can be ignored.

Because of this, the casualty rate in Konoha has been rising since a few minutes ago.

It is foreseeable that once they reach the critical point of what they can bear, large-scale sacrifices will be inevitable.

However, this time probably won’t come.

Without him, Qing Ming's true body rushed over.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield below, Qing Ming muttered: "This battle has gone on for too long, it's time to end."

After saying that, he dived, avoiding several incoming kunai and shurikens on the way, and then he fell into a bunch of mist ninjas.

They had just surrounded and killed several Konoha ninjas before and were in a state of excitement.

But now, he is breaking out in a cold sweat.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Qingming, a Kirigakure chuunin swallowed his mouth, suppressed the fear in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

With that said, he took the lead and rushed towards Qing Ming.

When the others saw this, they followed suit and followed suit.

However, facing the siege of these people, Qing Ming remained unmoved.

He first released the 'Shadow Clone Technique' to make his condition more perfect, and then took out the long knife from his waist.

Finally, facing several incoming shurikens and kunai, he swung several swords in an instant and knocked them down one by one.

The next moment, a flash of green light suddenly appeared, and he used the 'Instant Sword Technique'.

Qingming's speed suddenly surged to the limit, and at an unpredictable speed, he arrived in front of the Kirigakure chunin who was the first to give the order.

"ah!"

The Kirigakure chuunin was startled.

However, his fighting skills were still there, and he stabbed out the kunai in his hand almost instinctively.

However, in Qing Ming's eyes, his movements were just as fast as a turtle.

Qingming raised his long sword to block the stabbing kunai.

Then, he extended his left palm, and a light blue chakra ball suddenly appeared, which he pressed on the body of the Kirigakure Chunin.

Puff~

A mouthful of blood spit out from the mouth of the Kirigakure Chunin, and rushed straight to Qingming's face.

However, when the blood sprayed on Qingming, only a residual image was left at the place.

The next moment, a scream came from the side.

The Kirigakure Chunin used his last strength to look in the direction of the sound, and saw that his subordinate, a Kirigakure Genin, was pierced through the heart by Qingming from behind.

Qingming looked at him as if he had sensed something, and then ignored him, and continued to perform the "Instant Sword Technique", like a ghost, attacking other people.

At this moment, the Kirigakure Ninja present finally understood why Qingming's nickname was "Ghost Sword Qingming".

With his joining, Konoha quickly stopped the decline and began to try to counterattack.

During this period, two Kirigakure jonins tried to contain Qingming, but they were killed before they could hold out for long under Qingming's full-force attack.

Since then, the situation on the battlefield has reached a turning point.

With him and Uchiha Shisui, two of the best jonins, Kirigakure was no match for them even though they had more people.

In the end, after about 70% of their troops were killed, the only three remaining Kirigakure jonins retreated with the remaining Kirigakure ninjas.
