Kapitel 53: Chapter 53: Quick Resolution
Qingming watched expressionlessly as Yamashita Ichiran closed his eyes again, sensing the surroundings. He silently thought, "I hope you don't connect the dots to the Sharingan, or if you do, don't let it slip. Otherwise…"
For some reason, Yamashita Ichiran felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively shifted a little further away from Qingming.
Moments later, Yamashita Ichiran opened his eyes and said, "There are two enemy squads. One is stationed in the two-story building ahead, and the other is hiding underground. They are both standard genin teams."
A standard genin team consists of one chūnin and three genin. There are also chūnin and jōnin teams, with the former usually made up of one special jōnin plus three chūnin or four chūnin, typically tasked with B-rank missions. This was the case for their team and the current mission.
Chūnin teams might engage in combat with enemy ninjas, but they usually wouldn't involve jōnin.
As for jōnin teams, their composition can vary depending on the mission's difficulty. Generally, they are led by one or two jōnin, along with a few elite chūnin. In extreme cases, an entire team may consist of jōnin, but this usually only happens during wartime.
Returning to the point, with only two genin teams inside, there was no need to worry; a quick resolution was the plan.
Qingming's thoughts were in line with everyone else's. Without hesitation, the four charged into the building ahead.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Dozens of kunai shot toward them.
"I'll handle this!" Qingming shouted, stepping forward with a long stride. He swiftly drew a short blade from his waist.
Then came the sound of clashing metal.
In the blink of an eye, Qingming deflected all the incoming kunai, not allowing them to affect his team in the slightest.
Yamashita Ichiran and the others, fully confident in Qingming's abilities, charged forward without waiting for the kunai to hit the ground.
In the next moment, the sounds of battle erupted.
Inside the small building, four Iwagakure ninjas fought desperately against the surprise attack from the three Konoha chūnin.
Qingming glanced around to ensure there were no hidden enemies before launching an attack on the lone Iwagakure chūnin present.
The Iwagakure chūnin was caught off guard, surprised by Qingming's sudden appearance.
"So fast!" he thought, startled.
However, Qingming didn't care what he thought. As he got closer, he swung his blade.
This strike was as fast as lightning, leaving only a glimmer of cold light in the air.
The Iwagakure chūnin's expression changed, and he instinctively raised his kunai to block.
Clang!
A crisp metallic sound rang out.
The Iwagakure chūnin felt a jolt in his arm, his kunai nearly flying out of his grasp. He had been too hasty in his defense, and his strength wasn't sufficient.
Had Qingming been an adult, he could have knocked the kunai away completely with that strike.
But it didn't matter.
After a brief stalemate, Qingming quickly twisted his wrist, changing his downward slash into an upward flick that aimed for the opponent's face.
Realizing the danger, the Iwagakure chūnin instinctively leaned back.
Seizing this opportunity, the Konoha chūnin who had been fighting alongside Qingming hurled his kunai, targeting the enemy's chest.
Feeling the threat, the Iwagakure chūnin twisted his waist in an attempt to evade the kunai.
But he could barely maintain his balance, let alone dodge effectively.
In the end, the kunai grazed his body, leaving a significant wound at his waist.
Blood dripped steadily down.
Taking advantage of the moment, Qingming showed no mercy to his enemies.
A flash of cold light appeared as he once again swung his blade at the Iwagakure chūnin.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
At first, the Iwagakure chūnin managed to keep up with Qingming's pace, but after dozens of exchanges, he could no longer keep up.
The "Konoha Sword Technique" was not a mediocre sword art; it integrated the strengths of various styles, emphasizing speed, precision, and lethality.
Especially now that Qingming had trained it to level three, his attacks were even more aggressive.
As a result, the Iwagakure chūnin could not withstand the onslaught.
To make matters worse, he had a Konoha chūnin sneaking in attacks from the side.
Thus, within just over thirty moves, Qingming found an opening and thrust his short blade deep into the chest of the Iwagakure chūnin.
Thud!
The sound of steel piercing flesh echoed.
The Iwagakure chūnin looked down at the blade lodged in his chest, his kunai slipping from his grasp. His mouth opened as if to say something, but in the end, no words came out.
Confirming the enemy's death, Qingming withdrew his blade and scanned the surroundings again.
At this moment, the situation for the other two battles was also dire for the three Iwagakure genin.
Concerned about unexpected developments, Qingming did not want to waste time and immediately rushed toward one of the Iwagakure genin.
Simultaneously, the Konoha chūnin who had assisted him also charged at another Iwagakure genin.
Three against four, with the enemy having superior strength, how could they possibly win?
The three Iwagakure genin were filled with despair.
Yet, in their despair, they unleashed considerable strength.
But it was of no use.
In less than two minutes, all three Iwagakure genin fell to the ground.
After briefly checking the battlefield and replenishing their shuriken and kunai, they immediately asked, "Where's the underground entrance?"
"This way," Yamashita Ichiran replied without hesitation, leading the way.
The four moved through the hall on the first floor and arrived at a corridor inside.
Yamashita Ichiran scanned the door numbers on either side, compared them to his memories, and finally locked onto a room marked 107. "The entrance is in this room."
As they pushed open the door, a rush of air swept by.
The four quickly dove to the sides.
Thud, thud, thud!
Dozens of kunai shot out and pinned into the opposite door.
At that moment, a sizzling sound filled the air.
The four turned to see several explosive tags burning fiercely.
Finally, a slight change appeared on their faces, but they did not panic.
Before coming here, they had anticipated the possibility of an ambush.
After all, even though the previous battle ended quickly, it was not without noise, and the other Iwagakure squad was likely to notice.
Thus, whether it was a surprise attack upon opening the door or encountering these explosive tags, the four remained unfazed.
With preparation in mind, avoiding the danger was not too difficult.
In almost an instant, the four distanced themselves from room 107.
They quickly pushed open the doors on either side and slipped inside.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions rang out, the red flames, along with powerful shockwaves, rapidly spread down the corridor.
