Chapter 338 Enemy Attack
In a flash, more than four hours passed.

The starlight had dimmed, and a hint of paleness appeared on the horizon.

Qingming stood on the deck, looking at the vast sea ahead, and his mood couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed.

After staying for a while and making sure there was nothing unusual around him, he returned to the cabin.

Wow~Wow~
The sound of waves hitting the side of the boat could be heard from time to time. Qingming slowly closed his eyes, formed seals with his hands, and continued his practice.

Time passes minute by minute.

At some point, a light white mist rose around.

At first, the people on guard didn't pay much attention to it because there was a light mist on the sea in the early morning.

However, as time went on, the white fog around them became thicker and thicker. The few people finally realized that something was wrong and quickly sent out a warning signal.

In an instant, a shrill whistle sounded on the two passenger ships. All the Konoha ninjas were awakened by the sudden sound and ran to the deck one by one.

dong dong dong~
There was a knock on the door.

inside the room.

Qing Ming opened his eyes, glanced at the door, and said, "Come in!"

The next moment, a familiar figure pushed the door open and it was Uchiha Tiehuo. In order to have a trustworthy subordinate, Qingming brought him along this time.

At this time, he said with a little uneasiness: "Qingming, something is wrong outside."

"what happened?"

Qing Ming asked.

"A thick layer of white fog appeared around us, and we seemed to be trapped."

Uchiha Tiehuo replied.

"White mist?"

Qing Ming's heart moved, and he immediately stood up and went to the deck with the other party.

At this time, the deck was full of ninjas, all looking at the surrounding fog anxiously.

When Qingming arrived, he saw a Chunin performing wind-style ninjutsu in an attempt to blow away the white mist.

However, the white mist only rolled a few times and then returned to its original state.

Seeing this scene, Qingming narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then, he closed his eyes and sensed it carefully. Sure enough, water-style chakra was diffused everywhere in the white mist.

As a ninja who has already mastered the 'Water Style: Mist Concealment Technique', Qing Ming can basically conclude that this is the mist created by the 'Water Style: Mist Concealment Technique'.

Moreover, it was the 'Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique' performed by several people working together.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to cover such a large area.

Combined with the purpose of their trip, it is not difficult to guess that these people hiding in the dark are most likely ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village.

"Hehehe~"

Realizing this, Qing Ming chuckled.

Originally, he thought that the low-probability event he had anticipated was about to happen, and the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village would not come!
Now it seems that he was overthinking it, and the other party finally came.

This also indirectly shows that the Kirigakure troops attacking the northern defense line cannot retreat easily.

This means that they will have a tough battle to fight in the end.

However, it’s better this way, as it saves him from making a wasted trip.

另外
Qingming glanced covertly at the two special jonins in the crowd whom he had forced to travel with.

'Maybe we can take this opportunity to get rid of them'

This thought only lingered in his mind for a moment before being suppressed by Qing Ming.

Given the strength of these two opponents, if he made up his mind to take action, he could easily solve the problem without wasting too much energy.

Now, it is better to solve the current dilemma first. With this thought, Qingming jumped several times and came to the top of the passenger ship.

Then, he raised his hands, quickly completed the seal, opened his mouth, and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!

He mobilized a large amount of chakra, transformed it into wind jutsu, and then exhaled it mixed with one breath.

In an instant, the wind blew violently!

A tornado spewed out of his mouth, like a natural disaster, and quickly swept forward with unparalleled power.

All the white mist along the way was blown away, and the sea water below was also swept up by the wind tornado, turning into huge waves that hit the surroundings.

"This"

Below, the Konoha ninjas saw this scene and all opened their mouths wide, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Most of them had seen Qingming in action, but at that time, Qingming mostly showed off his extraordinary swordsmanship, and many people did not know that he was also good at ninjutsu.

When I saw her this time, I was immediately struck by her beauty.

However, Qingming's expression did not look very good.

Just after the wind tornado passed in front, the white mist that had just been blown away began to gather again, and in a few breaths of time, it covered the surroundings again.

It is obvious that the enemy came prepared this time.

Just when Qingming was about to try to disperse the white mist again, a burst of dense sounds of breaking through the air suddenly came.

Qingming looked carefully and saw dense kunai flying out from the white mist and shooting towards the two passenger ships from all directions.

If you look closely, you can see some detonating tags on those kunai.

It was obvious that the enemy intended to destroy their ships.

As soon as he thought of this, Qing Ming immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, pay attention to protecting the ship."

At this time, they were still more than an hour away from their destination. If the ship was destroyed, they could certainly run over.

But in that case, the condition would not be enough to support a major war.

After all, not everyone has as much chakra as him and can fight a big battle after running on the sea for several hours.

Most of the ninjas that set out with him this time were mid- and low-level ninjas, and it would be too much to ask them to carry out a raid for such a long time.

Therefore, the ship must not be destroyed.

What Qingming could think of, those middle and lower-level ninjas who were more concerned about the situation of the ship could also think of it.

So, with Qing Ming's order, everyone threw the kunai in their hands to intercept the incoming kunai in mid-air.

Fortunately, Qing Ming had just used the "Wind Escape: Great Breakthrough" to blow away the white fog. Although the surrounding fog gathered again, it was still a short time and eventually became a little lighter.

The improvement in visibility greatly increased everyone's hit rate.

In the end, only a few kunai were stuck on the passenger ship.

As for the kunai with detonating tags, they were all the focus of attention. Not a single one escaped and all were knocked away.

These kunai fell on the sea and exploded instantly. Fireballs appeared and dispersed the surrounding thick fog again.

Seeing this scene, Qingming's eyes lit up slightly. He formed hand seals again and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!

This time, he directly consumed nearly three thousand points of chakra, almost reaching the limit of what he could control.

In this way, the effect of ninjutsu is naturally outstanding.

Almost at the moment when he successfully performed his ninjutsu, the heaven and earth changed color.

A hurricane of force wind gushed out of his mouth, just like a typhoon passing through, blowing the surrounding white mist into pieces.

Even the Konoha ninjas on the ship below were blown all over the place, not to mention the white mist.

Some of them even fell into the sea.
