Withdrawing his thoughts and shaking off the blood on the blade, Qingming turned his attention to Mizutani Shizuko and the Iwagakure chuunin who was fighting against her. It can be seen that after these twenty minutes of hard fighting, Mizutani Shizuko has completely fallen into a disadvantage and has some skin injuries on her body. Originally, female ninjas did not have an advantage in physical strength, not to mention Mizutani Shizuko was still underage. Therefore, as the battle progressed, her disadvantage became greater and greater, and now she was on the verge of defeat, and she urgently needed his help. It was precisely for this reason that he chose to kill Nishimura Ishihira, otherwise he could have continued paddling and spent time with his opponent. Whoosh~ A kunai was thrown by Qingming and shot directly at the Iwagakure chuunin. ······ other side. Ichiro Hirai held a kunai and was about to take down Shizuko Mizutani in one go. Unexpectedly, a kunai suddenly flew from the side.
Sensing the danger, Hirai Ichiro hurriedly evaded. After making sure it was safe, he looked towards the direction where the kunai was flying. It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. He was shocked when he saw it. He had already noticed the battle between Qing Ming and Nishimura Ishihei. only The two of them were fighting back and forth just now, but without paying attention, Nishimura Ishihira was already dead. Although he is not very familiar with Nishimura Ishihira, he has met him a few times and has a certain understanding of his strength. The other party may not be said to be the best among chuunin, but at least he is much stronger than him. But now, the other party was killed, and he was killed by a little kid. Doesn't that mean that this little kid is far more powerful than him? Looking at the neat appearance of Qingming's clothes, Hirai Ichiro became more and more sure of his guess, but there was nothing to be happy about. The stronger the enemy, the more dangerous his situation. 'what to do? ’ Hirai Ichiro glanced around with his peripheral vision, trying to find a helper. But I'm sorry, the number of Iwa ninjas is not superior, and after more than 20 minutes of melee, there are even fewer survivors. Now, all the slightly stronger Iwa ninjas around him were being besieged by two or three Konoha ninjas, and they couldn't help him at all. ‘So, I have to rely on myself. ’ With this thought in his mind, Hirai Ichiro quickly threw the kunai in his hand, and then formed seals with his hands, as if he was about to perform some ninjutsu. Seeing this, Qing Ming dodged to avoid the incoming kunai, and at the same time quickly formed the six seals of 'Zi-Yin-Xu-Chou-Mao-Yin'. Then, take a deep breath, gather the fire escape chakra in your throat, and then spit it out one after another like a machine gun. The next moment, flames like impatiens seeds continued to emerge, densely packed, and flew towards Hirai Ichiro.
Seeing this scene, Ichiro Hirai's hands that were forming seals stopped unconsciously. At this time, there was only one thought in his mind, and that was why it happened so fast. Yeah, why so fast? The answer is simple. Ever since Qingming focused on improving the 'Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Jutsu' among the three fire escape ninjutsu, his proficiency has grown rapidly. Although only about a quarter of his chakra is used in this technique every day, its level has reached level 3 (226/1000). With this kind of proficiency, it is not a problem to face ordinary chuunin, not to mention dimension reduction strikes, but to be the first to strike first. Just like now, although Qing Ming used the ninjutsu a little later than the opponent, he was the first to use it in the end. This caused Ichiro Hirai to be stuck in a position of neither going up nor down. If you continue to use ninjutsu, you will inevitably be attacked by Qingming's ninjutsu. If you give up, the time you gained earlier will be wasted. But for the sake of his own life, he could only give up temporarily. After all, he still couldn't dodge attacks and perform ninjutsu at the same time. So I saw that after Ichiro Hirai was stunned for a moment, he immediately stepped back in an attempt to avoid Qingming's ninjutsu attack. But he wanted to retreat, but someone didn't want him to leave like that. On the side, Shizuko Mizutani found an opportunity and took action decisively. 咻咻咻~ Several shurikens flew out, aiming directly at the vital points of Hirai Ichiro's body. Sensing the danger, Hirai Ichiro quickly evaded. But his strength was indeed average. Although he avoided the shuriken thrown by Mizutani Shizuko, he was hit by a fire ball spit out by Qingming on his arm. Immediately, a burning sensation came from his left arm, making Ichiro Hirai frown involuntarily. Qing Ming keenly captured this detail, so he used a 'blinking technique' to close the distance and attack the opponent from the right. Hirai Ichiro dodged left and right, not daring to confront him head on. But the more this happens, the more Qing Ming will force the opponent to fight head-on. His left arm is already injured. As long as he focuses on this half of the opponent's body, he can make progress quickly. Finally, after avoiding several swords in succession, Hirai Ichiro had to fight Qingming head-on. But just as Qing Ming expected, not long after the battle, the opponent was severely injured, and his entire left arm was almost cut off by him. ······ Tick tick tick~ Scarlet blood flowed down the arm, through the palm, and finally dripped from the fingertips. Hirai Ichiro felt the pain in his left arm, but he did not dare to look away from Qing Ming's sword.
Although it was only a brief fight, he already understood how strong Qing Ming's swordsmanship was. It's no wonder that Nishimura Ishihira fell into the opponent's hands. With this kind of swordsmanship, let alone chuunin, even jounin, the opponent might be able to survive a few moves. Therefore, he did not dare to look away, for fear that Qing Ming would suddenly attack. But in the current situation, there is no need for Qing Ming to make any surprise attacks. Normal fighting is enough to deal with the opponent. As soon as he thought of this, Qing Ming jumped forward, followed by the "ding-dong-dang-dang" sound of the dagger and kunai clashing. Two minutes later, with the sound of a sharp blade entering flesh, Qing Ming seized an opportunity and stabbed the dagger into Hirai Ichiro's lower abdomen. Phew~ A mouthful of blood spat out from Hirai Ichiro's mouth. At the last moment of his life, Hirai Ichiro activated a detonating talisman, trying to grab Qingming's arm and die with him. Unfortunately, the opponent was already at the end of his strength and his movements were slow enough. Before he could take action, Qing Ming had already distanced himself. The next moment, a violent explosion sounded, and a red flame rose up, instantly engulfing Ichiro Hirai. It was not until this moment that Mizutani Shizuko came over. The battle just now was too fast-paced, and Mizutani Shizuko couldn't get involved at all, so she simply stayed on the sidelines to recover her strength. The endurance of ninjas is far beyond that of ordinary people. In just a short time, Mizutani Shizuko has recovered a lot of strength. Seeing the other party coming, Qing Ming was about to say something when suddenly there was another person next to him. Mizutani Shizuko still had some stress reaction and immediately raised the kunai in her hand, while Qingming did not make any movement. It's not that his reaction is slower than Mizutani Shizuko's. On the contrary, it was precisely because he saw the face of the visitor clearly that he did not act rashly. The person who came was none other than the captain of several of their teams, named Haruki Mori, a special jounin. Haruki Mori ignored Mizutani Shizuko's overreaction, and directly ordered: "You go to the E3 area immediately and follow the command of the captain of the second team." After saying that, he immediately ran in another direction without any lingering. Qing Ming followed the opponent's footsteps and saw there were two Konoha chunin who had just dealt with the enemy and were taking a short rest. He immediately understood that the opponent was gathering manpower. but ‘Area E3? ’ ‘Isn’t this another road from Iwagakure Headquarters to that logistics base? ’ ‘Did Yanyin Village send someone again? ’ The more he thought about it, the more Qing Ming felt it was possible, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart: "It's really one wave after another!"
