Sharingan Evolution: Proficiency's Path

"Stop!"

In the forest, Tera and Kamio halted their fast pace at Qingming's warning.

Qingming scanned his surroundings, his Sharingan glowing a deeper red.

Swish, swish, swish...

Suddenly, a faint sound of air being sliced through reached his ears.

Qingming's ears twitched, and he swiftly turned his gaze toward the dense woods ahead.

In the next moment, a flurry of tiny steel needles shot out from the forest, moving so fast that they were beyond the capabilities of human strength.

"Be careful!"

Qingming shouted as he quickly drew his short sword. His Sharingan spun rapidly, allowing him to see the incoming needles with perfect clarity.

Clang, clang, clang...

A series of crisp metallic sounds echoed as Qingming swung his short sword, deflecting all the flying needles.

Even with his extraordinary skills, this kind of extreme maneuver was taxing, causing him to breathe heavily and his Sharingan to dim slightly.

Clap, clap, clap...

At that moment, a sound of applause drew closer.

Then, a slightly mocking voice rang out, "As expected of the famous Sharingan. You managed to block all those attacks. It's truly impressive!"

Qingming turned to locate the source of the voice and spotted a massive two-meter-long spider carrying a young Sand ninja, around fifteen or sixteen years old.

Qingming glanced past the young ninja and focused on the giant spider, then returned his gaze to the Sand ninja.

"I've heard of the Sharingan's reputation, so you should know that such simple tricks won't fool my eyes," he said coldly.

The young ninja, Chiya, was momentarily taken aback, his teasing expression fading. "What do you mean?"

"Hmm..."

Qingming chuckled lightly, ignoring him. Instead, he addressed his subordinates, "Be careful; both of them are puppets."

Indeed, both the giant spider and the young Sand ninja were creations of puppetry.

The reason for this dramatic entrance was likely to confuse them.

Most people, upon seeing this combination, would instinctively assume that the person atop the spider was the puppet master.

But Qingming, with his Sharingan, saw right through it and recognized that the young ninja had no chakra within him.

Therefore, he couldn't possibly be a real person.

"What?" ×2

Tera and Kamio were shocked by Qingming's assertion and examined Chiya closely, but to them, he appeared entirely human.

However, upon further inspection, they detected something unusual—his presence was too faint to belong to a living person.

Chiya, feeling scrutinized like a commodity, lost his composure and prepared to control his puppets to attack.

But someone was faster than him.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"

Qingming completed the hand signs at a speed that was nearly invisible to the naked eye. He opened his mouth and unleashed a massive wave of flames that quickly split and coalesced into hundreds of small fireballs.

These fireballs divided into several groups, targeting the giant spider puppet's eight legs and the ninja on top.

However, Qingming's actions were swift, but Chiya's reactions were quicker.

Seeing the incoming fireballs, he commanded the spider puppet to dodge to the side.

One might say it was only fitting for a creature with eight legs to move quickly.

Even though Qingming had unleashed his most practiced jutsu, aided by the Sharingan, many fireballs missed their targets entirely.

The few that struck only caused minimal damage, not achieving their intended effect.

Seeing this, Qingming intended to signal Tera and Kamio to charge in.

But suddenly, several shuriken flew from the surrounding trees.

As they dodged, three Sand ninjas emerged from the forest, forming a ring around them, with the spider puppet and Chiya at the center.

"Captain?"

Tera spoke cautiously.

Qingming understood his concern and replied with a sweeping glance, "They're all real!"

After confirming, he signaled to the two to follow his lead.

Before they could react, he activated "Body Flicker Technique," instantly appearing in front of one of the Sand ninjas, his short sword swinging towards the opponent's neck.

If it were an ordinary Chūnin, facing Qingming's sudden strike would likely result in instant death or, at the very least, a severe injury.

But this Sand ninja reacted in the nick of time, leaning back slightly to evade the fatal blow.

Without hesitation, he retaliated, thrusting his shuriken directly at Qingming's chest.

Unfortunately, Qingming had foreseen this entire exchange with his Sharingan.

Before the ninja even raised his arm, Qingming could predict the move simply by observing the muscle tension in his arm.

Thus, with a simple sidestep, he evaded the attack.

Not only that, but because he had anticipated the move, he had time to cast "Genjutsu: Sharingan."

The ninja failed to react in time, falling into a brief state of confusion.

Seizing this opportunity, Qingming swung his short sword and swiftly severed the ninja's throat.

All of this transpired in an instant, and by the time the others reacted, Qingming had already taken down one opponent.

"Shinji!"

One of the remaining Sand ninjas cried out in anguish, clearly distressed over the loss of his comrade.

But Qingming paid no mind.

He executed another "Body Flicker Technique," and in the blink of an eye, he appeared before the grieving ninja.

However, having learned from the previous encounter, the Sand ninja was now on high alert.

While Qingming's speed was remarkable, it still didn't reach the level of instantaneous teleportation.

Thus, as he appeared in front of the ninja and swung his sword, the ninja had already raised his shuriken in defense.

Clang!

The shuriken clashed with the short sword, producing a sharp metallic sound that echoed like a trigger, awakening everyone around them.

Following this, all combatants sprang into action.

Tera and Kamio wasted no time and charged toward the giant spider puppet, following Qingming's earlier instructions to hold off the puppet master.

Everything had happened so quickly that neither of them had time to process Qingming's sudden move.

Even Chiya, not far away, had not anticipated that Qingming would be so decisive and powerful.

In the blink of an eye, he had killed one of Chiya's subordinates, which was genuinely astonishing.

Previously, he had only heard of the Sharingan's formidable reputation but had never faced a Uchiha ninja in combat. Now, he saw the rumors were true.

In reality, Chiya had overestimated the power of the Sharingan, particularly the effectiveness of the double-tomoe Sharingan.

Not every Uchiha who awakened the double-tomoe Sharingan could master the "Body Flicker Technique" to such an extent or possess the rich combat experience that Qingming did.

If one could not achieve these two things, having a double-tomoe Sharingan would not enable them to replicate Qingming's previous actions.
