It's not that Qin Fang is somewhat afraid of Miyamoto, this ninja, it's mainly that he doesn't want to suddenly make a move and accidentally damage that contraption box, which wouldn't be ideal.
Moreover, Yamamoto is a rather vigilant person, almost immediately after Miyamoto spoke up, the gun was already in his hand, and the bodyguards beside him also pulled out their guns one after another, all watching the large villa's living room with extreme caution…
From the way they positioned themselves, it seemed like as soon as Qin Fang showed himself even slightly, he would be riddled with bullets instantly!
This is definitely not a joke!
At such a close range, with so many guns pointed at him, even a master like Qin Fang wouldn't dare to confidently say he could avoid them.
Qin Fang's defense level hasn't yet reached the point where he can ignore bullets, especially at this close range, where he has to be extra cautious and defensive.
Qin Fang was slightly surprised by Miyamoto's strong perception, especially since he was extraordinarily stealthy when entering.
But unexpectedly, even so, Miyamoto managed to sense something and immediately reacted, which gave Qin Fang quite a scare…
Nonetheless, that was all there was to it. Qin Fang immediately restrained his breath, lurking motionlessly in the shadows, as if he had completely vanished, with all traces completely dissipated.
However, Miyamoto clearly wouldn't just shout a simple warning and be done with it. He vaguely felt a certain threat, so he quickly made a swift move, disappearing in an incredibly eerie manner.
Ninjutsu!
Yamamoto, upon witnessing such a scene, immediately understood that Miyamoto was using Japan's most proud ninjutsu, which is even more of a source of pride for them than karate.
Seeing Miyamoto disappear into thin air, Yamamoto, surprised, also tried to find some clues, hoping he could uncover Miyamoto's whereabouts.
But…
Yamamoto's attempts clearly failed.
No matter how carefully he looked around, he couldn't find a trace, as if Miyamoto had vanished into thin air and was no longer in the room.
Yet in his heart, he had a feeling that Miyamoto should still be in the room, but he just couldn't find him…
"Idiot…"
Qin Fang lurked in the darkness, his stealth skill already activated, with an efficacy that was no less impressive than Japan's ninjutsu, and even stronger.
If it were a Grandmaster-level ninja, an Upper Ninja, perhaps their ninjutsu would be stronger than Qin Fang's, mainly because Qin Fang hadn't crossed that threshold yet. But Miyamoto clearly hadn't reached that level, naturally making him much weaker than Qin Fang.
Yamamoto couldn't find Miyamoto's whereabouts due to his lack of vision and understanding of ninjutsu… but from Qin Fang's perspective, it was a completely different situation.
Miyamoto's ninjutsu was decent, but his skills were far from perfected. Qin Fang could sharply track Miyamoto's movements without even using his scouting skill's mini-map function…
If he looked at the mini-map, Miyamoto would be completely exposed in front of Qin Fang…
And the mini-map function of the scouting skill was Qin Fang's greatest reliance when facing Japan's most elusive ninja, rendering their proud ninjutsu utterly insignificant in front of him…
Upon seeing Miyamoto, Qin Fang naturally didn't bother to move, watching Miyamoto perform like he was watching a fool, and gave a simple evaluation.
"Nani?"
Before long, the disappeared Miyamoto slowly reappeared, not very far from his original location, but judging from his previous movement trail, this person was extremely cautious.
Once he revealed himself, Yamamoto and the others were dumbfounded, also full of admiration; this was akin to a stealth technique, truly amazing.
However, Miyamoto's mind harbored a different feeling, his face showing a rather peculiar expression, his eyes darting around as if still searching for something.
Miyamoto was quite surprised, carefully sensing his surroundings, seemingly unable to find that previous feeling, almost as if his earlier judgment had been mistaken.
Everything around seemed exceptionally calm, apart from a few people present, he couldn't sense anything unusual, leaving Miyamoto quite puzzled.
"Could it be that person was hiding outside earlier?"
Miyamoto's mind couldn't help but entertain such a thought, catching a hint of unease earlier, especially sensing a threatening presence, surely indicating someone nearby.
Yet now, there seemed to be nothing, as though that person didn't exist… of course, possibly that person fled far away after his shout.
"Mr. Miyamoto, truly a master of ninjutsu, much respect…"
But Yamamoto and the others were unaware of what was on Miyamoto's mind, thinking that he was merely trying to demonstrate his skills to Yamamoto. After all, since Yamamoto hired him at a high price, he had to prove his worth somehow…
If not, if Yamamoto believed he had no real skills, Miyamoto would lose a lot of face.
"Not at all…"
Even though Miyamoto was quite annoyed inside, he didn't show it and continued a polite conversation with Yamamoto…
At the same time, he kept sensing any surrounding movements. Only when he was sure there was nothing unusual did he slightly relax.
Whether the other side had left or his own judgment was wrong, at least he didn't mess up in front of Yamamoto… This result already satisfied him greatly.
"Mr. Miyamoto, please excuse me for a moment…"
After another polite exchange, Yamamoto clearly did not forget the main business. He immediately signaled to one of his trusted followers while apologizing to Miyamoto and preparing to have the mechanism box sent off for safekeeping.
"Please…"
Of course, Miyamoto wouldn't mind. Seeing Yamamoto's nervous expression, he knew that the brocade box or its contents were extremely important.
For something so crucial, it would naturally be safest to store it quickly. Holding it constantly was quite unsafe indeed…
So Miyamoto didn't stop him, showing openness and even proactively covering Yamamoto's departure route…
If it weren't for the fact that they weren't very familiar (and Yamamoto wouldn't possibly want him following to such secretive places… like the location of the safe), he might have insisted on following closely.
Miyamoto's discernment made Yamamoto quite satisfied.
The status of ninjas is very high, which leads many ninjas to have an exceptional level of pride, sometimes surpassing even the head of a Yamaguchi Group division.
Moreover, these people are exceptionally powerful, and their methods are extremely ruthless. Ordinary people would not dare to easily offend such ninjas…
Otherwise, given the way they act, it wouldn't be surprising if they suddenly disappear one day, leaving no place to argue their cases.
Once Yamamoto left, Qin Fang naturally wouldn't continue to stay. Hidden quietly in the corner, he started moving slowly.
Even though Miyamoto covered the main route, it wasn't entirely impassable… A slight detour could easily bypass it.
After all, Miyamoto was quite confident in his own abilities. Unless a ninja far stronger than him was involved, it would be hard for them not to be noticed.
It's just that Miyamoto probably never expected that a Dragon Country person would possess such an extraordinary stealth skill.
Qin Fang was unwilling to alert Miyamoto prematurely and alarm him, so his top priority was to stealthily retrieve the mechanism box.
Thus, Qin Fang proceeded very cautiously, moving as slowly as possible in the direction where Yamamoto disappeared…
His movements were extremely gentle and careful, with virtually no anomalies whatsoever.
Even though Miyamoto's perception was quite good, he did not detect any abnormalities. Qin Fang, having not anticipated a ninja's presence on Yamamoto's side last time, had shown slight oversight.
Now, with Qin Fang taking precautions, he naturally revealed no holes. So even this quasi grandmaster-level expert and future Upper Ninja Miyamoto didn't notice Qin Fang's movements at all.
Miyamoto stood there, looking particularly tense, his eyes like a hawk, continuously scanning back and forth, while his body was completely relaxed, sensing the changes in his surroundings.
Although his body was relaxed, his mind was intensely focused, ready to react with the utmost speed to any slight disturbance.
This is the most fundamental reaction of a martial artist and their basic skills.
A martial artist's prowess relies not only on strength, speed, agility, and personal defense capabilities but also on External School's body refinement techniques and Inner Sect's True Qi and Inner Breath, all which are important references.
However, a keen sense, rapid reaction, and precise judgment are hallmarks of a formidable martial artist.
Miyamoto's perception is quite sharp, his judgment appears accurate, and his reaction speed is incredibly quick. Combined with the highly strange art of Ninjutsu, encountering such a tricky ninja could cause great trouble even for a skilled expert...
Ninjutsu VS Stealth!
Without a doubt, under the same level, Qin Fang had a complete victory!
At least when Miyamoto used Ninjutsu, Qin Fang could detect his presence and even clearly understand the trajectory of his movements.
But when Qin Fang used the Stealth Skill, Miyamoto couldn't feel a thing, and Qin Fang could pass right by him without him noticing any anomaly.
Thus, the strengths and weaknesses of Ninjutsu and Stealth were clearly evident… (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
