Chapter 540 - Chapter 541: Eradicate the Root

Turning his gaze away, Qing Ming directed his focus toward the Mist Ninja Chunin who was not far away.

The moment he locked eyes with him, the Mist Ninja Chunin quickly snapped back to his senses.

He threw a kunai from his hand without any care for whether it hit or not, and immediately spun around to flee toward the main battlefield.

However, before he could even take two steps, Qing Ming's figure appeared right in front of him.

The Mist Ninja Chunin was startled but did not stop. Instead, he swung his kunai, aiming for Qing Ming's neck.

Unfortunately, this attack was no threat in Qing Ming's eyes.

At the moment the kunai was about to strike him, he slightly tilted his body and easily dodged the attack.

Miyazaki Tomohisa's eyes lit up, and he quickly twisted his wrist, intending to slash through Qing Ming's throat.

However, in the next moment, an intense pain shot through him.

Miyazaki Tomohisa felt a numbness in his right side around his waist and abdomen, and before he knew it, his body was sent flying backward.

Qing Ming slowly retracted his right leg and calmly walked toward him.

Cough cough.

As Qing Ming approached, Miyazaki Tomohisa coughed violently while struggling to rise to his feet.

However, before he could fully get up, Qing Ming used the "Body Flicker Technique" and appeared right in front of him.

Miyazaki Tomohisa's pupils widened, and an overwhelming fear made his adrenaline surge.

"Die!"

He yelled and forcefully hurled the kunai in his hand, aiming for Qing Ming's heart.

But what awaited him was Qing Ming's "Konoha Strong Whirlwind."

Boom~Crack~

A dull sound followed by a bone-breaking noise rang out.

Miyazaki Tomohisa crashed heavily to the ground.

Before he could even attempt to rise again, Qing Ming was already standing in front of him.

In the next moment, as their eyes met, Qing Ming immediately used the "Genjutsu: Sharingan" he had prepared earlier.

In an instant, Miyazaki Tomohisa's consciousness was dragged into an illusion.

He stood there, motionless, as Qing Ming calmly guided the illusion, making Miyazaki Tomohisa reveal the memories Qing Ming needed.

After a moment, Qing Ming retracted his hand and began to carefully recall the information he had just gathered.

Just as he had suspected earlier, these four people had no connection with the Root organization.

The only reason they were here was because the commotion from his battle with Huisheng and the others had attracted the attention of the Mist Ninja commanders, who had sent them to investigate.

There were also two more teams performing similar tasks.

However, Qing Ming had no intention of pursuing those other teams.

Once he confirmed they had no connection to the Root organization, there was no need to waste any more time on them.

Sano Nobuhisa's support team had already arrived, and now the entire battlefield was in chaos. This was the perfect opportunity to deal with the traitor, and he had no time for distractions.

Yes, Sano Nobuhisa had already arrived.

His shadow clone, who had been with them, had just used the "Telepathy Technique" to relay this information to him.

Therefore, it was time to move.

With this thought, Qing Ming waved his hand and used the "Chakra Scalpel" to sever Miyazaki Tomohisa's heart muscle. He then set him on fire. Before the body could completely turn to ash, he used "Wind Release: Wind Wings" to leave the area.

...

A few seconds later.

Qing Ming arrived at the battlefield, dramatically joining the fight.

Soon after him, another figure appeared on the battlefield.

Upon seeing the figure's appearance, it was unmistakably Miyazaki Tomohisa.

Clearly, this was the form his shadow clone had taken.

As for why he didn't transform into Akihara Shinsuke?

It was simple. The latter's strength was "too overwhelming" and could easily scare the traitor.

Yes, the traitor was merely a Chunin, and someone like Akihara Shinsuke, a Special Jonin, would appear far too powerful to the traitor.

This was also the reason Qing Ming intended to take advantage of this chaotic battlefield to deal with the traitor.

If the enemy had been a Jonin, or even a Special Jonin, Qing Ming would have had a much harder time dealing with them.

After all, in a battlefield, a true one-on-one fight rarely exists. If the enemy were in danger, they could always call for support from their comrades.

In a one-on-many situation, the risks of unexpected events were high.

However, if the enemy was only a Chunin, it was a completely different story. As long as Qing Ming found the right opportunity, he could kill the traitor in a flash, even with his shadow clone.

That way, the traitor wouldn't have any chance to call for help, and Qing Ming wouldn't need to worry about revealing his own identity.

With this plan in mind, Qing Ming joined the battle, moving toward his target location.

Before entering the battlefield, Qing Ming had already confirmed the traitor's position using his Byakugan, and now, while in the sky, he had him locked in. The traitor could not hide.

Soon enough, his shadow clone located the traitor.

At that moment, the traitor was teaming up with two Konoha Chunins to fight off four Mist Ninjas' siege.

However, his condition wasn't looking good. He appeared distracted, which was making his teammates' situation much more difficult.

As to why he was distracted?

From the way he occasionally glanced at the sky at Qing Ming's location, his shadow clone could guess the reason.

He probably wasn't clear on the Root organization's specific operations, but based on the tasks he had been assigned, the sudden appearance of Mist Ninjas, and the disappearance of Qing Ming, he likely could deduce some things.

Now, after nearly half an hour had passed, Qing Ming had reappeared.

There was no way the traitor wouldn't be nervous.

Thus, even without using his Sharingan, Qing Ming could see the concern in the traitor's eyes.

With a thought, Qing Ming's shadow clone blocked an attack from a Konoha Chunin, and in the instant they passed by another Mist Ninja, he left this enemy for his teammate.

Then, it seemed as though Qing Ming had just noticed the traitor's battle and smoothly joined in.

The Mist Ninjas didn't raise any suspicion as they recognized him as one of their own.

With minimal effort, Qing Ming's shadow clone found the traitor.

In their first few exchanges, Qing Ming's shadow clone only revealed the fighting level of an ordinary Mist Ninja Chunin.

After the traitor adjusted to this, Qing Ming communicated with his main body, signaling for it to move closer.

Instantly, the traitor began to show signs of nervousness.

Seeing this, Qing Ming coldly smirked, thinking to himself that a thief's conscience always betrays them.

He seized the opportunity, and while the traitor was distracted by a glance at the sky toward Qing Ming's real body, Qing Ming suddenly accelerated and appeared right in front of him.

"Huh?"

The traitor's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately tried to retreat.

But before he could, a fleeting flash of the Sharingan appeared in his vision, and though it was only brief, it caused him to momentarily lose focus.

When he came to his senses, a kunai had already pierced through his heart.

Oda Junji clutched his chest and coughed violently twice. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Qing Ming.

He could not understand how this Mist Ninja could possess the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

However, when he saw the calm expression on Qing Ming's face, it seemed like he understood something.

He gave a miserable smile and, as Qing Ming pulled the kunai out, he finally lost his life.
