Chapter 106 Escape
When~
After blocking Qingming's dagger attack again, Shafeng opened the Three Star Fan and used the fan to skillfully block the shuriken thrown by Qingming afterwards.

Then, he injected wind chakra into it and fanned it vigorously, forcing back Qingming who approached for the second time.

Taking this opportunity, he quickly formed seals and used the Three Star Fan again to perform a powerful wind escape, covering a large area where Qingming was.

At this time, Qingming generally makes two choices. If the storm is of average power, he will rely on the keen insight of his Sharingan to rush forward directly.

But if the storm is too strong, he will temporarily hide from it and look for another opportunity to attack.

For the past quarter of an hour, he and Shafeng had been engaged in this rapid transition between offense and defense.

The methods of both of them are almost all laid out in the open, and what is tested is their grasp of timing and the depth of their foundation.

In terms of combat experience, Shafeng is indeed better than Qingming, but the existence of dual magatama Sharingan and the perfection of multiple skills have made up for this gap.

Qingming even wanted to suppress the other party.

For this reason, Shafeng had to frequently perform some powerful wind-style ninjutsu to gain a chance to catch his breath, which consumed a lot of chakra.

On the contrary, all the methods used by Qingming consume very little chakra.

Such delay would obviously be beneficial to Qingming, and he did so.

He didn't even care when one of his men died at the hands of the puppeteer who was suspected to be from the same clan as Qianye.

In addition, as the battle progressed, he also knew what the female Sand Ninja in her early twenties was good at - she turned out to be a rare illusion-type ninja in the Sand Village.

He used the sonic illusion technique quite effectively, and actually forced another subordinate of Qing Ming to actively destroy his own hearing.

But this also greatly reduced his combat effectiveness, and for a while he was suppressed by the female ninja who was not good at close combat, and was completely in a passive defensive situation.

The only one who has the advantage may be Kamijou Yoichi.

That’s right, the opponent this time is still his subordinate, and his opponent is the seventeen or eighteen-year-old, strong Sand Ninja.

Just as Qingming expected, the other party was indeed good at physical skills.

However, it is far from being amazing.

Therefore, he was suppressed by Kamijou Yoichi who had more comprehensive abilities throughout the whole process.

However, this advantage disappeared instantly with the joining of the puppeteer.

If Qing Ming cannot provide help, it can be predicted that it will not be long before his only two remaining subordinates will be killed.

However, Qing Ming just glanced at their plight and no longer paid attention to it.

The strongest Jonin of the enemy had been stopped by him, and the remaining three were all Chunins like them.

If they are still no match for their opponent in this situation, they can only blame themselves for their lack of strength. Qing Ming will not be like a nanny, always looking after their safety.

What's more, although he seems to be in control of the initiative, if he relaxes a little, the situation may be reversed in an instant. After all, the enemy is a senior ninja, and he cannot afford to be careless.

So, they can only hope for the best.

Of course, Qingming cannot delay too long, otherwise several teammates will die, and it will also be troublesome if those Sand Village Chunins surround him.

With a thought in mind, Qingming once again accelerated the pace of his attack.

At the same time, he no longer cared about the consumption of chakra and began to frequently perform some ninjutsu, forcing Shafeng to consume more chakra to cope with it.

In addition, he was also actively looking for opportunities to perform illusions.

Unfortunately, Shafeng would rather suffer a loss than give him this opportunity, so he was never able to successfully perform illusion.

When he was halfway through the seal, he was once again distracted by the sand wind. Qingming sighed inwardly: "Sure enough, the level of the two illusions is still too low!"

If his 'Genjutsu Sharingan' has reached level 5, he can release illusions with just a wave of his hand or a movement.

In a one-on-one duel like this, he could easily control the opponent with just one simple move. Why would it be so troublesome like it is now?

The saying about dealing with the Sharingan that is circulated in the ninja world - one on one, you must flee, two on one, attack from behind - is not a deliberate exaggeration. It is the reputation that the Uchiha jonin with three magatama Sharingans have earned through real swords and guns.

Unfortunately, he has not yet mastered his skills and cannot reach this level, so he can only slowly deplete the opponent's chakra.

However, while he was complaining about the hassle, he didn't know that Shafeng was already complaining in his heart.

Feeling that more than half of the chakra in his body had been consumed, and looking at Qingming's still calm appearance, Shafeng felt that his hope of victory was slim.

"Do you want to continue?"

Shafeng asked himself in his heart.

The mission assigned by the village this time was to destroy the enemy's manpower as much as possible, and there was no clear mission objective.

Therefore, there is no need to take any responsibility if you retreat at this time.

As if he had convinced himself, Shafeng no longer hesitated. He blocked Qingming's attack again and forced him back.

Shafeng seized the opportunity and immediately fled into the distance.

Seeing this, Qingming's eyes lit up and he thought to himself, "Finally, it's moving!"

That's right, he had been waiting for Shafeng to make a move, whether it was attacking or escaping, as long as the opponent did not hold on to the death and compete with him in consumption, it would be acceptable.

As for why?

That's of course because he will only have a chance if the other party takes action.

what chance?
Of course it is an opportunity to capture the opponent!
That's right, after realizing that he could defeat his opponent, he began to think about how to capture him alive and turn him into his second 'chakra battery'.

It definitely won’t work here!
Although the Sand Ninja and Konoha Ninja had to move the fighting location to the periphery of the battlefield because the fighting here was too intense, they could still observe this side.

He certainly couldn't beat the other person half to death and then capture him in public.

In this case, unless the person is silenced, he will definitely be handed over.

Although Qingming's sense of belonging to Konoha is average and he won't babysit his teammates, he won't do anything to slaughter them.

As a human being, you still have to stick to some principles, otherwise sooner or later you will be blinded by power. Qingming doesn't want to become a monster who only knows how to pursue power.

Therefore, the best way is to avoid the eyes and ears of the public.

To achieve this, Shafeng must leave this place and move the final battlefield to another place.

In this way, other people would not know what he did behind the scenes, and he would not have to consider killing people to silence them.

And this is why he expects the other party to take action.

Therefore, when seeing the other party running away, Qing Ming did not stop him, but just chased after him closely.

As the situation on their side changed, the situation on the two outer battlefields also changed accordingly. The two Konoha ninjas fought more confidently, while the three Sand ninjas began to think about escaping.

After all, all the senior ninjas on their side were defeated. If they waited for Qingming to free up his hands, they would definitely not be his match.

Therefore, running away is a natural thing to do.

However, this decision is not so easy to make.

The final outcome of the battle between the Jonins is still unknown. If they retreat rashly, they will most likely be punished.

In addition, they still had the upper hand on the battlefield, and they were reluctant to throw away the credit they had gained.

And the puppeteer, his purpose is not only to gain credit, but also to find out the situation of the younger generation in the clan.

Whether it is life or death, there must be a result.

　There will be another update in the evening.
