Chapter 472 Harvest
Seeing that Qingming and Uchiha Shisui's attention were attracted by the huge firework, Xue Wuhua did not hesitate at all. She immediately burst out all her chakra, and her speed increased rapidly as she rushed towards the coastline.

"Ok?"

Seeing his reaction, Qing Ming immediately understood the meaning of the firework, but had no intention of chasing after him.

There was no other reason. His original goal was to test the effect of the 'Instant Sword Technique' that had been promoted to the perfect state, and to harvest some chakra at the same time. Meeting the other party was just a coincidence.

Now, his first goal has been achieved.

Although the fight just now was short, Xue Wuhua's strength was strong enough for him to get a result.

Therefore, there is no need to hold on to the other party.

Now, completing the second goal is the top priority.

It just so happened that the Kirigakure had already sent out a signal to retreat. As long as he was ready to intercept them, he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to harvest chakra.

With this thought in mind, Qing Ming did not hesitate at all. He immediately raised his hands to form seals and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Wind Wings, and flew high into the sky.

Before leaving, he said to Uchiha Shisui: "Shisui, I'll leave him to you. I'll go take a look at other places."

Afterwards, without waiting for Uchiha Shisui to answer, he flapped his wings and disappeared on the spot.

Looking at his graceful back as he left, Uchiha Shisui revealed a hint of envy in his eyes.

However, he quickly put this feeling of envy behind him.

Now, he has important things to do and no time to think about random things.

Uchiha Shisui looked in the direction where Xue Wuhua left, leaped up and chased after her.

Admittedly, the other party is planning to withdraw, which will no longer have any impact on the subsequent battle, but if possible, Uchiha Shisui still wants to keep the other party.

Because only in this way can they have fewer deaths in the next battle.

······
the other side.

Without paying attention to the fight that might break out between the two, Qing Ming flew high into the sky and immediately activated the Three-magatama Sharingan with all his strength, using the faint light around him to observe the actions of the Mist Ninja below.

It can be seen that as the firework rose, the ninjas from the Kirigakure side on the battlefield became noticeably more anxious.

One by one, they tried to escape from the battle, and then either alone or in groups, they all ran towards the sea.

This also once again verified Qingming's guess—Wilderness was about to withdraw.

After confirming this, Qing Ming calmed his mind and began to carefully select his target.

The battlefield below is big and small at the same time.

During the battle, the area is several kilometers in radius, no matter how they move, they cannot leave this range for a while.

However, when escaping, with the ninja's leg strength and full strength, it would only take a few minutes for them to escape from the battlefield.

This period of time can be said to be very short.

In addition, these Mist Ninjas fled in separate groups.

Therefore, he only had one or two opportunities to take action.

In this case, if you want to obtain as much chakra as possible, you must find the right target.

First of all, the Jounin's team must not be able to intercept and kill.

Even the weakest jonin could have some impact on him if they tried their best, so it would be a complete waste of time to attack them.

Secondly, there is no need to attack unless the Genin gather in large numbers.

Because they have too little chakra, attacking them would be completely counterproductive.

Moreover, more than two hours had passed, and there were very few Genin left alive, and it was unlikely that they would gather in large numbers.

Therefore, it can be excluded directly.

Finally, there are the lone Chunins.

These Chunins either have some special abilities or are just unlucky.

The former will affect his efficiency.

The latter can only provide him with a limited amount of chakra.

No matter which one it is, it is not what he wants to see.

So, it can also be discarded.

In this way, the most suitable teams for him to take action are undoubtedly those composed of a small number of Chunins.

Only by targeting them can we get the highest cost-effectiveness.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qing Ming immediately looked for a suitable target according to the final criteria. ······
under night.

Qing Ming was like a ghost, flying silently above everyone's heads, carefully searching for the corresponding target.

With the blood-red Sharingan staring down, Qingming quickly locked onto a team.

This was a Mist Ninja team consisting of three Chunins. They were running fast in the forest and were discovered by Qingming.

Without any hesitation, Qing Ming dived down and approached them from behind.

below.

Iwasaki Shoichi was running fast with two companions.

Suddenly, a shadow enveloped him.

Instinctively, he looked up.

Then he saw a pair of blood-red eyes.

"This is?"

Iwasaki Masakazu's heart trembled, as if he had thought of something, and he immediately wanted to shout out.

However, before he could utter a sound, his consciousness was pulled into the illusion.

Then, the whole person stopped running and fell to the ground.

"Shoichi?"

Seeing this, the other two Kirigakure Chunins stopped in their tracks and turned to look over here.

However, before they could see clearly what happened to Iwasaki Shoichi, another figure appeared in their field of vision. Who else could it be but Qingming?
The two of them reacted very quickly and recognized Qing Ming's identity immediately.

Suddenly, the two of them thought that something was wrong and were about to abandon Iwasaki Shoichi and run away.

However, they turned back after all, and at the moment when the three of them looked at each other, Qingming once again used the 'Illusion Sharingan' to control one of them.

As for the other person.
Qing Ming released the 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' and landed on the ground with both feet.

The next moment, he drew the long sword from his waist, then performed the "Instant Sword Technique" and flashed behind him.

huh~
The long knife was swung out.

Qing Ming was about to chop the opponent's neck.

The Kirigakure Chunin sensed the danger and immediately lunged forward to avoid the attack, then rolled over and hid to the side.

At this time, he had also adjusted his position and faced Qingming.

"Since we can't escape, we can only fight to the death!"

Harada Yong thought so in his heart.

However, when he looked up to look for Qingming's figure, he saw nothing.

"Where did you go?"

Harada Yong was confused and looked around nervously.

At this moment, a sound of air being torn suddenly came from the side.

A flash of cold light appeared in my peripheral vision.

Harada Yong thought to himself that something was wrong and immediately tried to dodge sideways.

However, it was too late.

There was a "swish" sound, and Qingming's long sword slashed across his left arm.

The next moment, his arm fell to the ground.

Not only that, there was also a wound on his waist that was deep enough to see the bone.

A large amount of blood gushed out, and the Kirigakure Chunin fell to the ground wailing, apparently dying.

Qing Ming's expression did not change at all, and he immediately used the 'Magic Shackle Technique' to control the opponent and made him unable to move.

At this point, all three Kirigakure Chunins were subdued by him. Excluding the time spent on searching, the entire process took less than a few seconds.

This was certainly due to his sneak attack, but it is undeniable that the role of "Instant Sword Technique" should not be underestimated.

Just like dealing with the last Kirigakure Chunin, if it was in the past, he might have to spend a little more effort, but now...
It can be killed easily!

It can be said that the perfection of 'Instant Sword Technique' has once again raised the lower limit of his close combat ability. Maybe it is not obvious when dealing with jonin, but it is extremely obvious when dealing with these mid- and low-level ninjas.
