Chapter 52 Infiltration
Boom~Boom~Boom~
Accompanied by dazzling flames, a series of explosions suddenly came from behind the earth wall.

Along with it came the screams of the Iwagakure ninjas.

Looking at the front of the team again, two Konoha jonin were missing at some point.

It turned out that just now, two Konoha senior ninjas took advantage of the confrontation between the two sides to perform earth escape ninjutsu and sneak into the Iwagakure base.

Now, they are the ones creating chaos.

After a few breaths, the earth wall built by the Iwagakure jonin collapsed, revealing the chaotic battlefield behind it.

At this time, the two Konoha jonin were being besieged by a group of Iwagakure ninjas.

Seeing this, Furukawa immediately gave the order: "Teams one, two, and three will entangle the enemy, and team four will look for the enemy's supply warehouse."

Unfortunately, Qingming was a member of Team 4. Besides him, there were three other people in the team, and all of them were Chunins.

Logically speaking, if a Genin is forced into a Chunin team, the team members will definitely have objections.

But the fact is that after learning about the grouping, the three teammates did not express any objection.

As for the reasons
It's very simple. After fighting with the Iwagakure ninjas over the past month, Qingming has proven his strength, which is no weaker than that of an ordinary Chunin.

His teammates were not worried about him holding them back, so naturally they had no objections.

Otherwise, when it comes to matters of life and death, even Furukawa would not be able to make the decision on his own.

However, only Qingming knew that Guchuan had arranged him to come in for a deeper meaning.

Perhaps in the eyes of his three teammates, he was just an ordinary Genin whose strength reached the Chunin level, but Furukawa knew his 'real' strength, which definitely exceeded the Chunin level.

Therefore, the reason for bringing him in was actually to have him act as a surprise soldier to complete the task at the critical moment.

Qingming had no objection to this arrangement.

In fact, compared to fighting on the frontal battlefield, this stealth and search mission is more to his liking.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that the risk is not high.

Although their raid had not yet been launched, a group of people revealed their whereabouts, but the Iwagakure were still caught off guard.

At this time, the Rock Ninja stronghold was surrounded on all sides, and the enemy's Jonin must have been separated early.

Some of the middle and lower ninjas that stayed behind were not much of a threat to him at all.

You ask why there are no jonin left?
The reason is simple. After all, the war between ninjas is not a war between ordinary people. Although logistical supplies are equally important, they are still inferior to people.

For the Iwagakure Village, preserving more manpower is more important than so-called supplies.

If supplies are gone, we can continue to raise them, but if the ninjas are gone, it takes several years to train them.

Therefore, Qingming estimated that the Rock Ninjas would be like them and would send out as many high-end forces as possible to reduce the losses of middle and lower-level ninjas when facing the enemy, especially when they were blocked at the door.

That's why Qing Ming said that this mission was not very dangerous for him.

Of course, that's only for him.

For his three teammates, that's not necessarily the case.

······
Inside the Iwagakure base.

Qing Ming and his group of four quickly moved towards the center of the village.

At this time, nearly ten minutes had passed since they sneaked into the village, and they finally figured out the location of the Rock Ninja supply warehouse.

This is also thanks to a Chunin named Yamanaka Ichiryou in the team.

Although he is not a direct member of the Shanzhong clan and has not learned the most advanced spiritual secrets, he has learned the art of mind reading.

A few minutes ago, with the help of others, they got rid of the pursuers and sneaked into the village.

After that, it took some time to find a Chunin from Iwagakure who stayed behind.

They succeeded in their surprise attack without any intention.

After that, Yamanaka Ichiryou used the secret technique of mind reading to get what he wanted from his head without much effort. If the information was correct, the underground in the center of the village was the Iwagakure's material warehouse.

Next, they just need to destroy these supplies and their mission will be accomplished.

At that time, everyone can retreat.

However, before that, they still have to deal with the defensive forces inside.

When they arrived at the center of the village, Shanzhong Yiliang raised his right fist and signaled them to stop.

Then, he made a few seals, closed his eyes, and began to sense the situation around him.

Qingming didn't know what the ninjutsu the other party performed was called, but he could vaguely feel the spiritual energy that was constantly spreading out from him.

I think it should be the secret technique of the mountain clan.

Just as Qingming was lost in thought, Shanzhong Yiliang suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him fiercely. There was a flash of surprise and an uncontrollable scrutiny in his eyes.

"what happened?"

Seeing the other party looking at him, Qing Ming remained expressionless and spoke calmly.

Hearing this, Shan Zhongyiliang came back to his senses, put away his scrutinizing gaze, and replied in a calm tone: "Nothing."

Seeing this, Qingming frowned slightly.

Recalling the other party's look just now, Qingming felt that the other party must have seen something.

‘Sharingan? ’

This thought just popped up in Qingming's mind, but he quickly rejected it.

There is no other reason. Without the Sharingan opened, let alone a half-baked member of the Yamanaka clan, even the clan leader of the Yamanaka clan himself would probably not be able to see anything unusual.

"Then there is only one possibility."

Feeling the vast chakra in his body, Qing Ming thought, "Have you discovered that my chakra capacity is different from that of ordinary people?"

Before setting off, in order to increase his own survival rate as much as possible, he did not waste chakra, and even performed the "Chakra Refining Technique" to recover a lot of chakra.

This caused the amount of chakra in his body to exceed the 4,500 mark.

And this is far more than the chakra amount of most Chunins.

You know, he is only eleven years old now. According to the growth law of ninjas, he has not yet entered the stage of rapid development at this age.

In other words, his chakra amount will continue to increase in the future.

And since he did not reveal the existence of the Sharingan on the surface, this amount of chakra was naturally not normal.

Qingming himself is also aware of this.

Therefore, whether in the base camp or in the small town outpost, he was controlling the amount of chakra in his body, while reducing contact with strangers and trying not to reveal any abnormalities as much as possible.

Unexpectedly, the secret was revealed today.

Qingming estimated that he was too close to Shanzhong Yiliang just now, so the other party sensed some abnormalities using ninjutsu.

In fact it is.

The secret technique that Yamanaka Izurō had just performed was called 'Spiritual Touch', which could sense the number of living people within a certain range and roughly estimate their strength.

The way to estimate strength is to detect the amount of chakra in the target.

Originally, the detection result was not very accurate, but this could not withstand Qingming's excessive chakra!
Just now, when Yamanaka Izurō used the 'Touch of the Soul', he was startled by Qingming beside him, and thought that the other party was a disguised Jonin.

After confirming that it was really Qing Ming himself, he was even more shocked.

However, with the mission at hand, he didn't have time to think about it.
