Chapter 540 Return

"It was him?"

A few minutes later, Qingming opened his eyes and murmured.

Viper did not disappoint him. As the leader of this mission, he did know the identities of all the members, including the inner ghost.

However, what surprised Qingming was that the other party was not a member trained by the Root Organization. He just had to obey the other party's orders because Danzo had a handle in his hand.

Come to think of it, most of the members of the Root Organization have no "humanity". Letting these people act as spies is simply a disaster.

What is a spy?

Not only does it require extremely strong professional qualities, but it also requires versatility and the ability to deal with anyone.

Only in this way can you lurk safely and obtain intelligence.

These members of the Root Organization need to learn from books even to deal with people normally. How can they act as spies?

They don't have this ability at all!

This can be seen from the memory that Danzo coerced and lured Yakushi Nono and Kabuto to go to other countries to perform undercover missions.

It is true that these two people are capable, but if the Root Organization has suitable personnel, Danzo would not send two people who are hostile to him.

Shaking his head secretly, Qingming no longer thought about it, raised his hand to perform the "Chakra Absorption Technique", drained the chakra of Viper, and then used a "Chakra Scalpel" to cut the opponent's neck.

Bang~

Viper's body fell heavily to the ground.

After confirming that it was completely dead, Qingming turned his eyes to the direction of the main battlefield.

Next, it was to cut the grass and root it out.

That's right, he didn't intend to let the inner ghost go.

It is true that the other party was not a member of the Root Organization, and everything he did was forced.

However, it was done, and Qingming would not let the other party go just because the other party was forced. Everyone must be responsible for their own choices.

Looking back, Qingming looked at the body on the ground, raised his hand to form a seal, and performed the ninjutsu-Fire Style: Sushoku!

Bang~

A ball of fire suddenly appeared and ignited Viper's body.

Then, the flames expanded rapidly.

Sizzle~

The sound of oil stains being ignited was heard.

After a dozen breaths, the body of the viper turned into a pile of ashes.

Huh~

A breeze blew, and all the ashes disappeared without a trace.

Seeing all this, Qingming nodded with satisfaction. He had dealt with the previous few people in the same way.

After checking the surroundings again and confirming that there were no hidden hands left, Qingming did not linger. He raised his hand and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Wings of Wind.

Swish~

A pair of light blue chakra wings appeared behind him.

Qingming flapped his wings and flew straight to the direction of the main battlefield.

At this time, more than 40 minutes had passed since the battle began, and more than half an hour had passed since he passed the information to Sano Nobuhisa.

Calculating the time, the other party should be here soon.

In this case, he must rush back as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if Kirigakure saw that the situation was not right and ran away in advance, it would be troublesome.

It's not that he wants to keep these Mist Ninjas, but to deal with the traitor. Now this chaotic battlefield is the best time. If he misses this opportunity, he will have to spend a lot of effort to deal with the other party.

Qingming doesn't want to make things too complicated, so it's better to deal with the other party before the Mist Ninjas retreat.

With this in mind, Qingming used the "Chakra Feather Clothes" in mid-air to protect his whole body, and instantly increased his flying speed to the maximum.

Originally, he was not far from the main battlefield, but then the snake ran wildly for nearly a quarter of an hour, which really opened up a lot of distance.

Fortunately, his flying speed was fast enough, and he could get back in no time.

······

A dozen seconds later.

Qingming flew less than halfway and suddenly stopped.

Under his white eyes, a few hundred meters away, in a forest, there was a ninja team.

Qingming focused his attention and looked over there.

Then, he saw four Mist Ninjas.

Judging from the amount of chakra, one of them is a special jonin, who should be the leader, and the other three are only chunins.

At this time, they are moving forward cautiously.

Looking at the direction of their movement, it is the route of Viper's escape.

Qingming recalled the information he read from Viper again, and after confirming that they had no other cooperation except using the Mist Ninja for this operation, he immediately understood that these people had discovered the fighting here and rushed over to investigate.

However, just in case, Qingming still decided to go down.

By the way, borrow their identities.

Next, he has to deal with the inner ghost, and he must not use his own identity. Without evidence, he can't kill people at will, even if he is the captain.

But he doesn't want to make things too complicated, so disguising as a Mist Ninja is undoubtedly the simplest.

With this thought, Qingming immediately lowered the altitude and flew over there.

Finally, when they reacted, they performed the ninjutsu - Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!

In a breath, a huge fireball was condensed by him, with endless light and heat, smashing towards the four Mist Ninjas.

"Not good!"

"Quickly retreat!"

"Be careful!"

Feeling the terrifying fireball above their heads, the four Mist Ninjas below were in a mess.

Suspended in the air, Qingming looked at the four people fleeing in a panic and nodded with satisfaction.

Ever since he performed the "Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique" once in Yujin Port, he has liked this fighting style. It is not so fancy, but simple and fast.

For a ninja like him who is committed to defeating ten with one force, this is the best fighting style.

Are there any disadvantages?

Not without.

This fighting style consumes a lot of chakra, and ordinary ninjas can't support it at all. Even Qingming would feel a little distressed if he performed it frequently.

Fortunately, the existence of the "Chakra Absorption Technique" allows him to easily replenish chakra.

So, when he has the opportunity to perform it, he never hesitates.

Just when Qingming was thinking about it, the fireball hit the ground.

Boom~

A violent explosion sounded.

The fireball exploded and turned into a rain of fire all over the sky, floating around. Big trees were ignited one by one. In the blink of an eye, the area of ​​100 meters in radius turned into a sea of ​​fire.

"Ah~"

The painful screams sounded in the sea of ​​fire.

Two Mist Ninjas did not escape from the sea of ​​fire. They were first blown away and injured by the huge shock wave of the fireball explosion, and then engulfed by the flames. They were already dead.

Even the two who managed to escape were covered in dust, with large areas of their clothes burned through, and they were coughing all over.

However, even so, they did not relax their surveillance of the surroundings, especially the sky.

Wait~

The head of the Mist Hidden Special Senior Ninja suddenly froze, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

At this time, where was there any figure in the sky?

At this moment, a strong sense of crisis filled his heart, making him instinctively jump forward.

The next moment, a flash of knife light passed by, cutting off the residual image he left behind.

"Huh?"

Looking at the Mist Ninja who dodged his knife, Qingming exclaimed lightly.

However, he did not care too much. A flash of green light flashed on his body, and the "Instant Sword Technique" was performed, and the speed of the whole person soared.

Almost in an instant, he appeared next to the Mist Hidden Special Senior Ninja again.

Swoosh~

The white blade flashed.

This time, the Kirigakure Special Jonin in front of him was not so lucky. Although he also sensed the danger and reacted, Qingming still cut off half of his arm with one knife.

The white bones were exposed, and a lot of blood was spilled. Akihara Shinnosuke's face was covered with cold sweat and his face was frighteningly pale.

However, there was no extra time for him to rest.

Qingming's attack did not stop. After one knife, the green light on his body lit up again, and the "Instant Sword Technique" was once again performed by him.

Before, Akihara Shinnosuke could not react, let alone now.

Swish~

The sound of the sharp blade cutting through flesh and blood sounded, and the Kirigakure Special Jonin rolled over and barely avoided Qingming's attack, but there was another wound on his body.

This made his condition worse.

Not far away, another Kirigakure Chunin who escaped from the sea of ​​fire at about the same time as him wanted to help, but he couldn't find a chance.

When he was ready to attack, Qingming had already found an opportunity and used the "Illusion Sword Technique" to cut his throat when Akihara Shinnosuke was a beat slower.

"Ha ha ha ~"

A strong feeling of suffocation came, and Akihara Shinnosuke covered his throat with his eyes wide open.

He stared at Qingming, his eyes full of unwillingness, but there was no point in being unwilling. In the end, he could only fall to the ground helplessly and accept death.

Qingming was not surprised by this result.

Not to mention that his strength was far superior to the opponent, he could not be his opponent at all. The serious damage caused by his sneak attack was enough to give him an absolute advantage.

It can be said that the outcome of this short battle was already doomed.
