Whoosh~
A gentle breeze blew across.
The ashes on the ground drifted softly, scattering through the forest.
At this point, another useful tool was gone from Danzo's hands.
But this was just the beginning. There were still three Root squads waiting for him!
Although he currently had no chance to strike at Danzo, it didn't mean he would let the people Danzo sent get away.
Indeed, Danzo might not care about the lives of these individuals, but when too many tools are lost, replenishing them becomes a hassle.
As long as it could cause trouble for Danzo, Qingming was more than happy to contribute.
As for the locations of those three Root squads, it wasn't difficult to find!
Since they were acting as the "yellow sparrow," they wouldn't be too far from the battlefield.
With his current flight speed and the assistance of his Byakugan's ability to see through, searching through these areas would be no problem at all.
So, the exact location didn't matter.
Without hesitation, Qingming immediately raised his hand, formed seals, and performed the jutsu—Wind Style: Wings of the Wind!
Whoosh~
A pair of pale blue chakra wings appeared on his back.
Next, Qingming formed seals once more and activated his jutsu—Chakra Armor.
Instantly, a faint, pale blue chakra wrapped around his entire body, as if he were donning a blue robe, giving him a more ethereal appearance.
Qingming couldn't help but feel that if he were in a cultivation world, people would likely address him as "Immortal Master."
Speaking of which, can the ninja world cultivate as well?
Perhaps, once I take care of my current troubles, I can explore this "cultivation path."
Qingming never missed an opportunity to enhance his power.
Furthermore, in his view, "cultivation" was the world's native path to transcendence.
As for chakra, it was just a power brought by two outsiders!
In fact, even the bloodline of the Uchiha clan inside him was related to this.
If he wanted to break the limits of his bloodline and reach even greater heights in power, trying another path to transcendence was necessary.
Moreover, these two types of extraordinary power weren't incompatible.
Senjutsu chakra could even counter Yin-Yang Release.
Such a power was something Qingming would never forsake.
However, those were all matters for later. The most important task now was to deal with those hidden "yellow sparrows."
With that thought, Qingming immediately flapped his wings and soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, his speed reached its maximum of two hundred meters per second.
At this speed, even with Chakra Armor protecting him, Qingming squinted his eyes, unable to ignore the overwhelming wind hitting his face.
Perhaps, after this, I should allocate some chakra to enhance the level of my Chakra Armor...
He thought to himself as he quickly returned to the forest battlefield.
The battle here was still ongoing.
Qingming didn't rush to search for the Root ninjas' locations. Instead, he used the Mind Communication Jutsu to contact the three shadow clones he had dispersed.
The shadow clone at the front line wasn't important to mention—it was still helping the Konoha ninjas below to fend off the Fog Ninja siege.
The shadow clone at the rear was in a more difficult situation, as it was already struggling to hold on under the deliberate targeting of several Fog Ninja Jonin.
As for the shadow clone sent to Blackstone Base for support...
Its mission had been quite smooth. Just ten minutes ago, it had already arrived at Blackstone Base and successfully met with Zano Nobuhiro.
After reporting the situation here, the other party immediately began organizing reinforcements to head towards their location.
Next, as long as the Konoha ninjas on the front line could hold out, reinforcements from Blackstone Base would arrive within half an hour.
Qingming couldn't help but chuckle to himself. Originally, they were supposed to support Blackstone Base, but now it was Blackstone Base coming to their aid.
Still, it could be considered a precautionary measure, making it less likely that the Fog Ninja would stir up trouble here in the future.
This also meant Qingming could focus on improving himself in this environment.
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. After confirming there was no immediate risk of collapse on the front lines, Qingming began his systematic search.
He centered his search around the front lines and activated his Byakugan, quickly extending his vision outward.
It wasn't long before Qingming discovered the hidden positions of several Root ninjas.
Though these ninjas were well-hidden, Qingming's Byakugan easily saw through them. Within just two minutes, he had found their positions.
They were hiding about seven or eight hundred meters west of the front line.
At that distance, they couldn't directly observe the battle, so they must have been using some special jutsu or summoning beasts.
But that wasn't important.
What mattered was that Qingming had found them.
Now, it was time to deal with these nuisances.
Without hesitation, Qingming flapped his wings and shot towards their location. In the blink of an eye, he was hovering above them.
Without giving them any time to react, he launched a large Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu directly at their hideout.
The Root ninjas hadn't expected Qingming to discover them so quickly—or perhaps, they hadn't expected him to discover them at all.
Caught off guard, three of the ninjas were severely injured on the spot.
Ignoring their shocked expressions, Qingming raised his hand and once again unleashed a Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu.
Boom~
Another massive fireball dropped down.
The three already injured Root ninjas turned to ash, while the remaining nine were forced to scatter.
However, their reaction was quick—since they couldn't act as the "yellow sparrow" anymore, they would have to confront Qingming head-on.
Swish, swish, swish~
In an instant, dozens of kunai and shuriken flew towards him.
Qingming's eyes scanned the incoming projectiles, immediately noticing the traces of poison and the attached exploding tags.
Without hesitation, Qingming flapped his wings and dodged the attack.
At that moment, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of someone forming seals, preparing to cast a jutsu. For some reason, the jutsu felt oddly familiar to him.
Alert, Qingming flapped his wings and distanced himself from the figure.
The next moment, a sharp, piercing sound echoed through the air.
In an instant, Qingming felt blood flowing from his ears, and his flying posture faltered. Thankfully, he didn't fall.
At that moment, he understood the source of that strange sense of familiarity.
The person had been using a sound-based ninjutsu.
It was clear that the Root ninjas had gathered detailed intelligence on him, knowing his previous weaknesses to sound-based attacks.
So they specifically chose this jutsu to target him.
If they had been closer, the jutsu's effect might have seriously wounded him.
At the moment, however, the attack hadn't reached its full potential because the enemy had acted hastily.
Since that was the case, Qingming decided to act decisively.
With that thought in mind, Qingming took aim at the enemy's position, quickly formed seals, and unleashed his Fire Style: Charcoal Flame Jutsu!
