Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

Chapter 51 The action begins and the unexpected



It was night.

It was drizzling.

It was pitch black all around.

Qingming and the others followed Guchuan and sneaked all the way to a village about 100 meters west.

This village was the base of the Rock Ninja.

Faintly, a few scattered lights could be seen there.

When they came to a low slope, Guchuan raised his right fist and signaled everyone to stop.

Immediately, everyone stopped, and the whole process highlighted a disciplined approach.

It must be said that the battlefield is a training ground for people. Those who have survived the fight with the Rock Ninja in the past month are not stupid people.

At least, no one is unique and does something out of the ordinary.

Guchuan looked at the time and determined that there were still more than ten minutes before the attack, so he gestured for everyone to take a rest.

Seeing this, everyone silently adjusted their breathing and prepared for the upcoming battle.

Time passed by minute by minute, and there was silence around. In addition to the subtle breathing of everyone, there was only the sound of raindrops falling on the ground.

As if sensing the outbreak of a war, the rain in the sky quietly became heavier.

Qingming stretched out his hand, felt it, frowned slightly, and thought to himself: "This environment is not suitable for the use of fire escape!"

However, when he touched the short blade at his waist, he felt relieved.

There is nothing to say, the lv3 (430/1000) "Konoha Style Swordsmanship" gave him enough confidence.

Boom~

Suddenly, an explosion sounded from a distance.

Qingming immediately looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a ball of red flame suddenly rising in the south of the village in front, which was the scene when the detonating talisman exploded.

Then, there was a clanging sound of metal collision.

It is obvious that there must be a battle there.

'Has someone been exposed? '

Qingming had this thought in his mind at the first time.

For this mission, they were divided into four teams and planned to launch an attack from four directions of the village at the same time.

Their team, led by Gu Chuan, was responsible for launching the attack from the west of the village, while the other three teams were responsible for the other three sides.

Looking at the current situation, it is highly likely that the team in the south has been exposed.

Otherwise, they would not have launched the attack casually before the agreed time.

What Qing Ming could think of, Gu Chuan could also think of.

Therefore, after just thinking for a few seconds, he decisively ordered: "The plan has changed, everyone, follow me!"

After that, he took the lead and ran towards the Rock Ninja Base.

Seeing this, Qing Ming and others immediately followed.

Obviously, Gu Chuan was planning to launch an attack in advance, and there were more than one person who had similar ideas.

Just as they were approaching the Rock Ninja Base quickly, an explosion was heard from the north.

'This is fine, as long as it's not a one-on-one fight'

Thinking in his heart, Qing Ming quickly glanced around, always alert to the possible dangers in the dark.

Crack~

A slight cracking sound came.

Qing Ming suddenly lowered his head and looked down at his feet.

Faintly, a slight vibration could be felt there, just like a level 1 or 2 earthquake, the touch was not strong.

But it was this slight vibration that made Qingming feel like a disaster was coming.

Without any hesitation, Qingming grabbed Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko on both sides and ran to the side like a fly.

At the same time, he did not forget to remind his teammates, shouting loudly: "Be careful of the ground!"

"What?"

Hearing his warning, some people were confused and reacted a little slower, while others reacted quickly and ran to both sides like him at the first time.

The next moment, the ground cracked, and dozens of cracks of different sizes suddenly appeared on the road ahead of Qingming and others accompanied by a strong earthquake.

The few Konoha Genin who reacted a little slower just now were almost instantly swallowed by the cracks.

It was not until this time that Furukawa and several Jonin in front of the team noticed the abnormality.

This is not to say that Qingming's perception is more acute than these Jonin, but that the enemy attacked them, the middle and lower ninjas, and specifically avoided Furukawa and others.

Otherwise, with the alertness of Guchuan and others, it is impossible that they would not notice the movement underground.

Before everyone could stand firm, dense rock spikes emerged from the ground again, just like bamboo shoots after rain, one after another.

Several Konoha ninjas were unable to dodge and were scratched by the rock spikes.

Fortunately, no one died.

You know, there are only a little over 20 people in their team. Four or five people have died in the first wave of attacks. If a few more people are lost, what's the point of fighting?

All this is thanks to Qingming's shout.

It was that reminder that made everyone mentally prepared and not completely stunned by the first wave of attacks, otherwise several people would die in the second wave of attacks.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

Several kunai were shot from the hands of Guchuan and several other senior ninjas.

Immediately afterwards, several crisp metal collisions were heard in the darkness.

Obviously, their attack was blocked by someone.

However, the attacks on Qingming and other middle and lower ninjas also stopped.

Tap, tap, tap~

A dull sound of footsteps was heard.

A senior ninja from Iwagakure walked out of the darkness.

Seeing the newcomer, Furukawa didn't waste any words and immediately asked a senior ninja beside him to confront him, while he led his men to the Iwagakure base.

Before setting off, Qingming and others had been informed of the goals of this mission - one was to eliminate the enemy's manpower as much as possible, and the other was to destroy the enemy's reserve materials.

From what Furukawa meant, he was planning to complete the second one.

Qingming didn't want to fight to the death with the Rock Ninja, so if he could do this, it would be great.

With the explanation, they could retreat.

But would the Rock Ninja let them complete the task so easily?

The answer is obviously no.

As soon as Qingming and others approached the village, they were immediately forced back by hundreds of kunai shot at them.

During the day, they just took advantage of their home advantage to repel the Rock Ninja.

Unexpectedly, retribution came so quickly, and they had to face the enemy's home battle at night.

This arrogant attitude of not treating kunai as money and throwing it casually is not a tactic they can use in away games.

Unless they are proficient in time and space ninjutsu and can use the sealing scroll to carry extra equipment and props, the things that ninjas can carry when they go out are very limited.

In this case, it is naturally impossible to fight against the opponent.

What's more, such a defense is not so difficult to break through.

Then, next to Furukawa, a Konoha jonin quietly walked out, raised his hands, and quickly completed the seal.

The next moment, a large amount of chakra gushed out of his body, mixed with the surrounding rainwater, forming a giant water dragon with a length of more than ten meters.

The water dragon roared to the sky, then pounced forward and attacked the not-so-solid wall in front.

If it hits hard, the wall will collapse in an instant, and the rock ninja hiding behind it will also be in trouble.

At that time, even if they don't die, they will be injured.

In this environment, the power of the Water Style·Water Dragon Bullet Technique is unquestionable.

The rock ninja obviously understood this, so before the water dragon touched the wall, a roar came from behind the wall.

"Don't even think about it!"

Along with the sound, there was also a tall earth wall rising from the ground.

Qingming recognized this technique, which was the B-level ninjutsu known for its defensive power - Earth Style·Earth Flow Wall.

Originally, earth escape is more restrained by water escape, and this technique is also performed by a jonin, so the "water dragon bullet" can't break through the opponent's defense.

Qingming only heard a dull crash.

Feeling the ground tremble under his feet, the water dragon turned into splashing water, and failed to cause any damage to the rock ninja behind.

Fortunately, the jonin on their side did not only prepare this move.

Sorry, there is only one update today. I am still stuck in traffic. This chapter was coded by mobile phone when I had time.
