Chapter 156 Ghost Sword
Ding~
The kunai and the dagger collided, making a crisp sound of metal collision.
Looking at Ishida Shinsuke who was close at hand, Qingming smiled slightly and activated the hypnotic ability of the Sharingan.
However, Ishida Shinsuke, who was prepared, immediately avoided the sight.
Seeing this, the smile on Qingming's face suddenly disappeared, and his temperament changed accordingly, no longer having the arrogance he had just had.
At the same time, his entire fighting style has also changed greatly, from the head-on confrontation when he killed those Iwagakure Chunins before to the weird and unpredictable one now.
The moment Ishida Shinsuke looked away, Qingming's figure flashed slightly and he appeared in the blind spot of the other party's vision.
Then, he thrust the dagger in his hand straight out, aiming at his heart from a position that Ishida Shinsuke could not see.
Immediately, a sense of crisis came over him, and Ishida Shinsuke instinctively stepped back to avoid Qingming's attack.
Qing Ming reacted quickly. After his attack missed, he immediately adjusted his body and appeared in the blind spot of Ishida Shinsuke's vision again.
Without any hesitation, the dagger stabbed out again.
Sensing the danger, Ishida Shinsuke dodged once again, and Qingming's attack missed again.
However, there was no disappointment on Qing Ming's face, only absolute calmness, and his blood-red Sharingan stared at Ishida Shinsuke's every move.
Then, based on this, predict their movements, take a step ahead and continue to attack from their blind spots.
Even though Ishida Shinsuke is quite strong, he can only passively defend in this situation, and can't exert even 60% to 70% of his strength.
This is also why there is a survival rule in the ninja world that goes "If you meet an Uchiha ninja in a one-on-one situation, you must run away."
After all, it is because the Sharingan is too powerful in restraining ordinary ninjas.
Hypnosis alone is enough to give many ninjas a headache.
After all, the ability to hypnotize is a function that the Sharingan itself possesses. There is no need to make hand seals to activate it, and the process is silent.
Although the effect is not very strong, in a fierce battle, a moment of distraction can be fatal.
Therefore, when many ninjas fought with Uchiha ninjas, they did not dare to look at each other for a long time.
In this way, the combat effectiveness will naturally be greatly reduced.
On the contrary, the Uchiha ninja can use the insight of the Sharingan to anticipate the enemy's moves and further seize the initiative.
As one gains strength while the other loses strength, ordinary ninjas are naturally no match for the Uchiha ninjas.
Of course, all of the above are based on the assumption that the strength difference is not too big and that the Uchiha ninja can skillfully use the Sharingan.
If a jonin bullies an Uchiha genin who has just opened his eyes, just pretend he didn't say anything.
By the same token, if an Uchiha ninja is unable to skillfully use the Sharingan, then the enemy will not be afraid to look him in the eye.
However, it is obvious that Qingming does not meet the above two points.
In fact, compared to other tactics used by ordinary Uchiha ninjas to match the Sharingan, Qingming's 'swordsmanship' created by combining 'Konoha-style swordsmanship' and 'Uchiha-style swordsmanship' is undoubtedly more suitable.
This resulted in greater suppression of the enemies he faced.
Just like now, in Ishida Shinsuke's eyes, there were only the daggers that kept stabbing from various tricky angles, and the corners of Qingming's clothes left behind when he moved.
Other than that, I can't see anything.
However, Ishida Shinsuke still didn't dare to search for Qingming's trace.
Because just now, he tried to confront Qing Ming head-on, but was hypnotized on the spot and was almost pierced through the throat by Qing Ming's sword.
This made him no longer dare to seek direct combat.
Of course, he also thought about escaping, but Qingming didn't give him the chance at all. Relying on his superb swordsmanship, Qingming stuck to the opponent in close combat.
Coupled with the insight of the Sharingan, he could detect every move of Ishida Shinsuke in advance, and the opponent was unable to distance himself at all.
As for the seals used to perform ninjutsu
That's even more impossible.
Because Qingming would not give the other party the chance to form a seal.
With his current swordsmanship and reaction ability, if the opponent dares to spend time forming seals, Qingming will be able to take him away with one sword.
Drops of cold sweat slid down his cheeks. Ishida Shinsuke was fully aware of any movement around him, ready to meet Qingming's attack at any time.
At this moment, he just felt like a fish in a net. The more he struggled, the tighter the net became around him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Whoosh~
The sound of the air being pierced brought Ishida Shinsuke's thoughts back to reality.
He almost instinctively judged the direction of the attack, turned sideways and swung the kunai in his hand, blocking Qingming's attack just right.
'How many times has this happened?'
Ishida Shinsuke pondered in his heart, and secretly said: "The next step should be to hide in the blind spot of my vision, and then launch another attack!"
This had been going on for the past few minutes, and he was slowly getting used to it.
In fact, after suffering several wounds, he felt that he could slowly grasp Qing Ming's fighting rhythm.
Perhaps, if he persists a little longer, he will be able to find an opportunity to break free from Qingming's entanglement and completely leave the battlefield.
"Um?"
While thinking, Ishida Shinsuke suddenly found that there seemed to be a figure in front of him. When he saw the other person's face, he was suddenly awakened and was about to close his eyes immediately.
However, it was too late.
'Magic: The Art of the Flail~'
In an instant, Qingming completed the hand seal and performed the Sharingan illusion that he had already mastered to perfection.
Suddenly, Ishida Shinsuke felt a piercing pain.
Immediately afterwards, the body seemed to be nailed by several giant iron nails. Although he was conscious, his body could not move at all.
As the saying goes, if you defend for too long, you will lose.
Ishida Shinsuke has always been on the defensive and could only follow Qingming's fighting rhythm.
Although as time went by, he gradually adapted to Qingming's rhythm.
But at the same time, the conditioned reflexes formed under high pressure will also hinder his normal reaction to a certain extent.
So, when Qingming suddenly changed his tactics, the opponent was unable to react immediately.
As for the consequences?
Just like now, Qing Ming decisively seized the opportunity and killed him instantly with a single move of 'Magic·Jail Technique'.
However, Shinsuke Ishida still did not give up.
He stared at Qingming with his eyes fixed, his body trembling slightly, trying his best to break free from the control of the 'Magic·Jail Technique'.
Originally, Qing Ming was still thinking about whether to keep the other party to act as a 'chakra battery', but after seeing the other party's performance and considering the current situation around him, he finally gave up with reluctance.
Phew~
The sound of a sharp blade entering flesh was heard.
Ishida Shinsuke felt his body relax and he was able to move again.
But then, a feeling of powerlessness came over him, and Ishida Shinsuke looked down, only to see a familiar dagger already pierced into his heart.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Ishida Shinsuke finally looked at Qingming and struggled to spit out two words: "Ghost Sword!"
"Ghost Sword?"
Qingming repeated these two words and inexplicably felt that they suited him very well.
For now, his swordsmanship combined with the Sharingan, when fighting with people, is really almost like a ghost, you can only see its shadow but not its shape.
In this case, it is not an exaggeration to call it a "ghost sword".
What Qingming didn't know at this time was that in the next few months, the four words "Ghost Sword Qingming" would become his exclusive title, resounding throughout the battlefield of the Rain Country, and become a taboo known to everyone.
