Chapter 319 Take action
"Yes, it's me!"

Facing Qing Jie Hou Yu Sheng's gaze, Qing Ming replied calmly.

As he spoke, he swung his sword, letting the blood on it splatter.

The whole person's movements were very casual, fully demonstrating what it means to be fearless.

Since the plan of sneak attack could no longer be implemented, Qing Ming was no longer in a hurry and simply showed up openly.

This will also help boost our own morale.

And just as he expected, with his appearance, the surviving Konoha ninja's eyes immediately lit up and their bodies became much stronger.

This is the role of a leader in a big melee. As long as Qingming's flag does not fall, the ninjas under him will not collapse completely.

Wow~
There was a sound of splashing water.

Uchiha Tiehuo finally climbed out of the water. He covered his chest and said to Qingming: "Be careful, he is very powerful!"

"Ah."

Hearing this, Qing Ming nodded and said, "I understand."

"Chance!"

In front, seeing Qingming looking away, Qing secretly said "good opportunity" and quickly threw the kunai in his hand.

swoosh~
A slight sound of breaking through the air was heard.

Qingming glanced at it, swung the long sword in his hand, and accurately knocked the kunai away.

Qing didn't care about this. He quickly formed seals with his hands, opened his mouth, and performed the ninjutsu - Water Style: Water Wave!

Although this is only a relatively basic C-level ninjutsu, it is very simple to form hand seals. It can be performed with only three seals of '辰-丑-卯', which is just right for sneak attacks now.

Originally, Qing thought he could take this opportunity to catch Qing Ming off guard.

However, unexpectedly, almost at the same time he spit out the water ball, Qing Ming also opened his mouth and spit out a fireball.

It turned out that Qingming had already completed the seal with his left hand when he swung his sword to block the kunai attack.

Only then, at the critical moment, did he perform the ninjutsu - Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!

Zizzi~
The fireball and the waterball collided, making a harsh sound.

Subsequently, a large amount of water vapor appeared and quickly spread around.

Qing has extremely rich combat experience, and the first thing he thought of was to take advantage of the environment.

Then, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and in the blink of an eye he performed the iconic ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist Village - Water Style: Hidden Mist Jutsu!
At this time, if Qing Ming wanted to, he still had a chance to interrupt the other party.

However, he has been coveting this ninjutsu for a long time, and now the opportunity is just right.

So, he didn't interrupt. Instead, he used all his strength to activate the Sharingan and observe the opponent's hand seal sequence and the general flow of chakra.

When he completed the hand seals and performed the ninjutsu, he also learned this technique at the same time.

This is the copying ability of the Sharingan.

Qingming opened the panel and took a look, and sure enough, he saw a new skill - Water Style: Mist Concealment Technique: lv1 (1/200)!
Just like the original 'Wind Style: Wind Blade', a successfully copied ninjutsu would be directly at the entry level, without the need for trial and error in the early stages.

Although with his current chakra, it wouldn't take much effort to learn such a ninjutsu, but any trouble he could save was a plus.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Qingming closed the panel and looked around.

At this time, his vision was completely white, and even his perception was suppressed a little.

Whoosh whoosh~
A slight sound of breaking air suddenly came from the side.

Qingming's ears twitched slightly, and he swung the long sword in his hand, accurately blocking all kunai attacks.

The surroundings became quiet again. Qing Ming was not impatient and just waited quietly for the other party to make a move.

"what!"

Suddenly, just as Qingming was waiting patiently, a familiar scream was heard.

Qingming's expression changed, and he flashed and appeared in front of Uchiha Tiehuo who was not far away, following the sound.

He was already seriously injured, and now there was another kunai on his arm.

Seeing him coming, Uchiha Tiehuo wanted to say something, but the next moment, his expression suddenly became extremely frightened.

"Die!" A creepy voice appeared behind Qingming.

Immediately afterwards, Qing was seen holding a kunai and stabbing it straight into his back.

However, Qing Ming seemed to have expected it. He lunged forward, avoiding the attack while turning his body 180 degrees.

"what?"

Qing was startled and was about to pull back.

But at this moment, Qingming performed the "Instant Sword Technique".

A green light appeared on his body, merging him and the long sword in his hand into one, and in an instant he appeared in front of Qing.

huh~
A flash of light flashed by.

It seemed that he was about to cut off Zhong Qing’s neck.

At the critical moment, Qing raised the kunai in his hand to block Qingming's attack.

Hey~
There was a clear sound of metal collision.

Qing couldn't bear the force and flew backwards.

Qing Ming chased him relentlessly, swinging the long sword in his hand repeatedly, chopping Qing back again and again. For a moment, he had no strength to fight back.

Qingming's sword moves faster and faster, and gradually, Qing can't keep up.

At a certain moment, his expression suddenly became dazed, and when he came to his senses again, Qingming's long sword was already in front of him.

Qing didn't have time to think about it, and quickly raised the kunai in his hand to block.

However, to his surprise, the long sword passed over his kunai like a phantom, and behind the phantom, there was another long sword.

Moreover, it seemed to adjust the angle of attack according to his blocking movements.

At this point, it was too late for him to block.

Qing knew that he had been hit, and he said "Oh no" in his heart, and suddenly retreated backwards.

Seeing this, Qing Ming sneered and said, "It's too late to run now!"

As he spoke, he exerted force on his wrist, and the long sword in his hand became faster again.

stab~
The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh was heard.

Drops of blood splattered on Qing's chest.

Suddenly, a wound appeared on his chest.

This wound was not like the shallow bloodstain left by Qing Ming's previous failed sneak attack. At the deepest part, one could even see the white bones.

"Hmm~"

Feeling the severe pain in his chest, Qing endured the pain and didn't scream. He just groaned and then used his last bit of strength to distance himself.

Seeing this, Qingming was about to step forward to finish off the enemy.

But at this moment, a water dragon appeared from the side and rushed straight towards him.

"Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu?"

Qing Ming's mind moved, and he gave up the opportunity to finish off the enemy. He dodged the water dragon's attack with a flash of his body.

brush~
A blue shadow appeared and protected Qing.

Who else could it be if not Mei Terumi?

The other party looked at Qingming, his eyes full of vigilance.

Although she had understood some of Qingming's strength through the fight with his shadow clone, she still found it hard to believe when she saw Qingming defeat Qing so cleanly.

In this regard, Qingming could only say that Qing was too impatient and underestimated him.

The other party used Uchiha Tiehuo to set a trap for him, but he never expected that he would actually take advantage of the situation and take the initiative.

If his 'Instant Sword Technique' level was not too low and his movement speed was not fast enough, the initial counterattack would have taken the opponent's life.

Even so, in the subsequent fight, he still used his "Phantom Sword Technique" to seriously injure the opponent.

Unfortunately, Mei Terumi arrived too quickly.
