Chapter 196 Upgrade
Ding Ding Dang Dang~
The crisp sound of metal clashing continued to ring out in the field.

Qingming held a short sword and fought against three people alone. Facing the joint attack of three Iwagakure jonin, he did not fall into disadvantage at all.

But this is only now. A few minutes ago, facing the tacit cooperation of the three, he still encountered danger several times.

During this period, he tried many times to break the situation with ninjutsu, but was suppressed by his great willpower.

In the end, he only relied on his swordsmanship and the Sharingan to face the enemy and resolved these dangerous situations one by one.

Under such life-and-death pressure, his swordsmanship improved rapidly, and the last bit of proficiency was also rapidly accumulated.

"Soon! Soon!"

Qingming was muttering to himself while blocking the attacks from three Iwagakure jonin.

'Soon? What do you mean?'

The three Iwagakure jonin looked at each other, none of them knowing what Qingming was talking about. Unconsciously, they slowed down the pace of their attack.

At the same time, he looked around from time to time, as if he was on guard against something.

Qing Ming felt the pressure on his body eased and frowned slightly, but when he saw the reactions of the three people, he was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

'What's going on? I just said a few words, why are you so cautious?'

Although Qing Ming complained in his heart, he had to admit that this was a great opportunity.

With two "ding ding" sounds, Qing Ming blocked the attacks of two Iwagakure jonin.

Then, facing Odauchi Mitsuru's sneak attack, he did not choose to dodge completely, but simply avoided the vital points and then launched a counterattack.

"what?"

Odauchi Mitsuru was caught off guard by Qingming's sudden change of tactics.

He wanted to withdraw his attack, but was afraid that Qing Ming was feinting, deliberately causing a mismatch between him and his teammates so that he could escape.

But if he continues to attack, there is a great possibility that he will be injured or even die!

He didn't have much time to think. At the critical moment, Odauchi Hikaru thought of Ozawa Kurita who died because of his mistake.

So, he made up his mind and ignored Qingming's counterattack and just continued his attack.

This time, he chose to trust his teammates, believing that they could block the attack for him and save his life from Qing Ming.

Seeing this, a strange color flashed in Qingming's eyes again. He thought that the other party would stop attacking and block.

Unexpectedly, the other party chose to "die together" with him.

I have to say, he made the right choice.

Just now, if he had chosen to block, Qing Ming was confident that he could take the opponent's life within a few moves.

Now.
This is a bit troublesome!

However, these were just some inconveniences and not a big problem, so his plan could still be completed.

With this thought, Qing Ming slowed down his attack and slightly tilted his body, causing Odano Mitsuki's attack that could have hurt him to miss the target.

But because of this delay, two Iwagakure jonin reacted and one of them blocked the attack for Odauchi Hikaru.

The other person swung a kunai directly at Qingming's neck.

Feeling the sharp aura coming from it, Qing Ming did not dare to resist it. He dodged the attack.

At the same time, he retracted the dagger in his hand to block Odauchi Mitsuru's second attack.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Iwagakure jonin who had previously blocked the attack for Odauchi Mitsuru suddenly stabbed out a kunai, straight into Qingming's throat.

Qing Ming dodged again and then immediately swung his sword, with the attack trajectory directly including the man in front of him and another Iwagakure jonin.

With two "ding ding" sounds, his attack was blocked.

But it doesn’t matter anymore, because Qingming has gained a brief initiative.

He drew his sword quickly, and each sword was both a block and an attack, often targeting more than two people.

Therefore, even though he was sandwiched by three people, it seemed as if he was suppressing the three of them.

One move, two moves, three moves.
After dozens of moves, Qingming was finally unable to suppress the three opponents, and they broke free from the rhythm. Under his intentional control, Odauchi Hikaru was the first to gain freedom, and he immediately attacked Qingming.

Looking at the blow that was piercing his heart, Qing Ming thought to himself, "Is that really the case?"

Immediately, Qing Ming gave up suppressing the other two people and put away his sword to block the attack.

Seeing that his strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" worked, Odauchi Mitsuru immediately launched a more fierce attack in an attempt to create opportunities for the other two.

However, he forgot that when the attack is most fierce, the defense is often the weakest.

The three magatama in Qingming's pupils spun rapidly, instantly locking onto Odano Hikaru's attack path.

Moreover, based on the opponent's fighting habits, we can also make certain predictions about subsequent changes in tactics.

Then we saw Qing Ming slightly sideways and avoided Odano Mitsuki's attack.

Odauchi Mitsuru seemed to have anticipated this, and he immediately turned his wrist, preparing to change his tactics and continue his attack.

But before he could complete his change of moves, Qingming dodged in advance.

After confirming that there would be no danger, Qingming thrust the dagger in his hand straight out, like a poisonous snake that had been hiding for a long time, ready to take someone's life as soon as it came out of the cave.

"careful!"

A Iwagakure jonin noticed the problem and immediately warned Odauchi Mitsuru, while he also swung out the kunai in his hand, ready to block the attack for him.

However, the opponent was able to block his attack last time, but Qingming did not intend to end up hurting both sides.

Now?
Before the other party could make a move, Qing Ming seemed to have sensed something and suddenly turned his head to look at the other party.

The moment the two looked at each other, Qing Ming activated the hypnotic ability of the Sharingan.

The three-magatama Sharingan that has evolved to its limit, even if it has an inherent hypnotic ability, is not something that ordinary people can withstand.

In just a moment, the Iwagakure jonin froze in place and his consciousness fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, another Iwagakure jonin who had originally planned to launch a sneak attack on Qingming no longer had time to do so.

He just launched an attack randomly, threatening Qingming that he could not finish off, and then went to wake up the sleeping Iwagakure jonin.

But this is a tough time for Mitsuru Odauchi.

He didn't hold back at all when he attacked just now, and now it's too late for him to turn around and block.

Finally, in the opponent's desperate gaze, Qing Ming stabbed straight and sent the dagger into the opponent's body.

During this period, Odauchi Mitsuru naturally tried to save himself, twisting his body desperately to try to avoid vital parts.

But Qingming's sword seemed to have eyes and followed him. When it touched him, it pierced right into his heart.

puff~
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Odauchi Hikaru's mouth.

Qing Ming dodged sideways and drew his dagger at the same time.

Having lost his support, Odauchi Mitsuru staggered two steps and finally fell to the ground, completely dead.

Just at this moment, a feeling came to his mind, and Qingming had a new understanding of his "swordsmanship".

At this moment, even without opening the panel, Qingming knew that his "swordsmanship" had been upgraded.

And after he absorbed the insights in his mind, he felt that he had gained a lot, and his persistence over the past ten minutes was not in vain.

With level 6 swordsmanship, Qingming felt that if he faced the three people again, he should be able to kill them with his swordsmanship.

Unfortunately, there are no more three of them.

Qing Ming glanced at the body of Odauchi Mitsuru on the ground, shook off the blood on the blade, and then looked at the two Iwagakure jonin not far away.

At this time, the Iwagakure jonin who had been hypnotized by him before had woken up, and when he looked at him again, there was a bit more vigilance in his eyes.

It’s not his fault that he is so alert, it’s just that Qingming’s Sharingan is too powerful.

It's not like he hasn't dealt with Uchiha clan's jonin before, but it's unprecedented that he could be defeated by just hypnosis.

Intuition told Ichiro Fukui that Qingming's Sharingan was definitely extraordinary!
