After finishing his washing, Qingming had just stepped out of his room and was about to head to the mess hall for a hearty meal.
However, at that moment, a small explosion suddenly came from outside the base. Though it wasn't large, it was still loud enough for Qingming to hear.
He paused for a moment, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on listening more closely.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Faintly, he could hear a few more explosions.
Qingming opened his eyes and muttered, "That's right, it's the sound of explosive tags. The Mist Ninjas have started their attack again, haven't they?"
With that thought in mind, he quickly reached into his ninja tool pouch, pulled out several soldier pills, and popped them into his mouth, crunching them.
Soon, a feeling of fullness spread throughout him.
Without any hesitation, Qingming quickly formed a set of hand seals and activated his ninjutsu — Wind Release: Wings of Wind, flying high into the sky and heading towards the location of the explosions.
Within ten seconds, he arrived above the dense forest to the west of the base.
From here, looking down, he could see two teams engaged in fierce combat — one side was the Mist Ninjas, while the other side was the Konoha ninjas.
However, the Mist side had more people. They had three small squads, totaling twelve ninjas.
The explosions earlier had been caused by a small Konoha reconnaissance team, which, realizing they were no match for the Mist Ninjas, immediately used explosive tags to create a commotion.
This was both a distress signal to the base and an attempt to call for backup.
As it turned out, their decision was correct.
Qingming arrived.
He immediately activated his Sharingan and scanned the battlefield.
He could see that there were not many Mist Ninjas in the visible area. However, in other locations, the sounds of battle could be faintly heard.
Clearly, the Mist Ninjas were not just targeting this one Konoha reconnaissance team, but as he had predicted, after a day of rest, they had launched another attack.
For now, though, these other areas didn't need his attention. The base's personnel must have already noticed the commotion, and the defense would be handled by them.
As for him...
Qingming's eyes gleamed with intensity as he stared down at the Mist Ninjas below, like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey. His gaze was filled with greed.
It wasn't surprising for him to act this way; he needed chakra desperately.
In order to gain a deeper understanding of Earth Release chakra, he had to improve his proficiency with the three Earth Release techniques on his panel.
Among them, Earth Release: Hardened Technique wasn't a problem, as even though he had allocated 20,000 points of chakra to Fire Release: Pure Burning Technique, it still received 50,000 chakra points daily.
This was enough to improve its proficiency by 500 points every day. That was nearly sufficient.
However, Earth Release: Earth Gun and Earth Release: Earth Wall were a different matter. Since he first learned them, he hadn't allocated any additional chakra to them.
And that, clearly, wouldn't work.
So, now he urgently needed external chakra to fuel their growth.
Without a doubt, these three Mist Ninja squads below were the perfect source of chakra.
Among them, only one squad leader was a Special Jonin, while the rest were all Mid-Level Ninjas.
Such a power level was exactly what he preferred.
Not wasting any time, Qingming flapped his wings and descended rapidly.
However, he didn't rush to land. Instead, he raised his hand to form seals and cast another ninjutsu — Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!
Whoosh~
A burst of flames erupted from his mouth, transforming into three fire dragons that shot down towards the Mist Ninjas below.
Sensing the intense heat from above, the Mist Ninjas immediately scattered. The Konoha ninjas in the area finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They looked up at Qingming in the sky, their eyes filled with excitement.
Qingming saw them as well. Without hesitation, he cast Mind-Link Technique, instructing them to join forces against the Mist Special Jonin.
As for the other ninjas, they were not his concern.
Upon hearing Qingming's command, the four Konoha ninjas immediately acted without delay, launching a joint assault on the Mist Special Jonin.
The remaining Mist Ninjas, hoping to interfere, attempted to help.
However, Qingming had already set his sights on them. There was no way he would let them interfere with the battle.
Targeting the fastest one, Qingming raised his hand to form seals and cast Fire Release: Pure Burning Technique!
Thanks to the enhanced insight of his Sharingan, his casting precision was far superior to that of ordinary Anbu or ROOT ninjas.
The targeted Mist Ninja only felt a sudden pain on his body before flames erupted from his skin, quickly engulfing him.
"Ah~!"
A painful scream erupted from his mouth.
As he tried to strip off his clothes and roll on the ground in an attempt to put out the flames, it became apparent that the fire wasn't so easy to extinguish, thanks to Qingming's chakra infusion.
Seeing the situation, the other two Mist Ninjas acted quickly, raising their hands to form seals and using Water Release: Water Chaos Wave.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Two streams of water appeared and doused the flames on the burning ninja.
At that point, Qingming felt the ninja had lost enough fighting capability, so he ceased supplying chakra to the flames.
Thus, the flames were finally put out.
However, the two Mist Ninjas who had extinguished the flames were now in trouble, for Qingming had turned his attention to them.
Swish! Swish! Swish~
Several shuriken flew from his hand.
The two Mist Ninjas were caught off guard. Although they managed to dodge some, two shuriken still struck them.
While they weren't fatal hits, they were enough to impair their mobility.
Seizing this opportunity, Qingming once again performed Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique, controlling three fire dragons to attack these two, as well as another Mist Ninja who had tried to assist the Mist Special Jonin.
The three ninjas, being relentlessly chased by the massive fire dragons, had no choice but to flee in a panicked manner.
Qingming's three-tomoe Sharingan was pushed to its limit as he swiftly locked onto one of them, tracking his evasion route before using Wind Release: Wind Blade!
His Wind Release: Wind Blade had already reached Level 7 (0/0) in perfection, and under his control, anyone with even slightly inferior perception couldn't detect it.
Just like the Mist Ninja he had locked onto, he was still running forward when his legs were abruptly severed by a transparent wind blade, around one meter long.
His upper body continued to lurch forward for a short distance before crashing to the ground.
It was only then that he felt the excruciating pain and let out a scream.
A torrent of blood gushed from his legs. Qingming, fearing that he might die from blood loss, flapped his wings and descended near the wounded ninja.
Without hesitation, he immediately performed Shadow Clone Technique.
Bang~
A puff of chakra smoke exploded, and four shadow clones appeared on the scene.
Without needing any instructions from Qingming, they immediately set to work, targeting the remaining nine Mist Ninjas.
As for Qingming himself, he was quick to absorb chakra from the injured ninja in front of him, as well as the one he had burned with Fire Release: Pure Burning Technique.
Seeing Qingming approach, Ando Keiji felt a pang of terror deep inside. He fought through the intense pain in his legs and threw a kunai in a last-ditch effort.
However, the attack was futile. Qingming merely tilted his head, avoiding the projectile.
Then, in a flash, Qingming appeared right in front of him. Before he could speak, Qingming immediately cast Chakra Absorption Technique, gripping his neck tightly.
In an instant, large amounts of chakra were absorbed, and Ando Keiji's life force rapidly faded.
