"Boom~"
With a deafening explosion, red flames engulfed the ruined wooden house, and the shockwave caused by the detonating talisman instantly blew Bai Shi away.
He shook his head, and the 22-point [Constitution] began to take effect. The buzzing sound in his ears quickly dissipated, and his physical condition returned to normal.
Bai Shi was about to stand up when suddenly, his pupils shrank, and his body swayed, narrowly avoiding three shuriken attacks in succession.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, a vague figure appeared not far away.
Upon seeing the other party's attire, Bai Shi's eyes revealed a hint of realization. "No wonder the attack just now was so sharp; it turns out he is not an ordinary ninja."
"Kirigakure ANBU?"
Bai Shi stared at the other person and asked in a deep voice.
However, upon hearing his question, the Kirigakure Anbu on the opposite side neither responded nor made any movements, as if they were waiting for something.
Realizing this, Bai Shi's ears moved slightly, and the subtle footsteps around him immediately registered.
"So you're stalling for time and waiting for reinforcements!"
"Heh~"
Bai Shi chuckled and threw the kunai in his hand at lightning speed.
Despite his quick movements, the Kirigakure Anbu opposite was on full alert, evading the attack.
But at this moment, the corners of Bai Shi's mouth curled up slightly, as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
This subtle expression was immediately noticed by Hei, who suddenly felt a great sense of crisis wash over him. The struggle for survival made him instinctively dodge to the right.
"It's too late to hide now!"
Just as the kunai passed by the opponent's side, Bai Shi launched the Flying Thunder God Technique.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his original position, reappearing at the opponent's blind spot. Grabbing the kunai he had thrown before, Bai Shi stabbed it backward, and it accurately penetrated the opponent's back.
Wow~
A mouthful of blood spurted from Hei's mouth, dripping through the gap of his mask onto the ground.
In the last moments of his life, He tried to look back. In his peripheral vision, he saw Bai Shi, and a hint of realization flashed in his eyes, soon clouded over by confusion.
Due to Minato Namikaze's prominent performance in recent years, Anbu members like Tsuru had gained some understanding of the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Therefore, he easily recognized the ninjutsu used by Bai Shi, but what puzzled him was that, in Konoha and throughout the entire ninja world, it seemed that only Minato Namikaze knew this ninjutsu?
"Then what's the matter with this kid?"
Unfortunately, Bai Shi didn't have the heart to answer those questions. Listening to the approaching footsteps, he didn't dare to delay. After pulling out his kunai, he immediately ran toward the old woman's house.
She had done him a favor, and he felt he had to see her, no matter what.
As Bai Shi left, several members of the Kirigakure Anbu arrived. They stared at Hei'sbody in silence.
From the moment they heard the explosion to their arrival, only ten breaths had passed, but He was already dead.
Moreover, judging by the situation at the scene, it was clear that He had initiated the attack.
'What is going on? Who are the enemies? And why are they here?'
At that moment, countless doubts filled the minds of the Anbu members, casting a shadow over everyone's hearts.
One person then gave an order: "Send a signal immediately and gather everyone. We must find the murderer who killed Hei; otherwise, our mission will be deemed a failure."
"Yes!"
Another responded, taking out a whistle and blowing it rhythmically.
Hearing the sharp whistle, Bai Shi could not help but speed up his pace. Although he didn't understand its meaning, he knew it had something to do with him. The faint smell of blood was evident, and Bai Shi's face turned grim. Coming from the Root organization, he had a rough idea of the tasks that the Kirigakure Anbu were given.
If he guessed correctly, there might not be many survivors in this small mountain village.
No, it wasn't just this small mountain village; he feared that the two villages to the west weren't safe either.
This is war, and war never cares about benevolence, justice, or morality.
"I hope it's not what I think. Otherwise, I'll start killing indiscriminately."
Muttering to himself, a fierce light flashed in Bai Shi's eyes.
"Arrive!"
As he spoke, Bai Shi had reached the old woman's house.
Looking at the half-open door in front of him, he felt a bad omen.
He quickly entered the room and found the old woman lying quietly on the bed. If she hadn't stopped breathing, he would have believed she was merely asleep.
Bai Shi couldn't help but clench his fists. Although he had no real relationship with this old woman, she was the first person he felt had shown him pure kindness since arriving in this ninja world.
But now she was dead; slaughtered in an unexpected disaster.
For the first time, Bai Shi felt extreme disgust toward war, and the anger rising in him made his aura leak out uncontrollably.
Moments later, more than a dozen Kirigakure ANBU surrounded the place.
Hearing the noise outside, Bai Shi used an Earth Release ninjutsu to bury the old woman's body underground.
Just as he performed the ninjutsu, the Kirigakure Anbu sensed something was off and immediately launched an attack.
Several shurikens with explosive tags attached whizzed into the room from every direction, blocking all possible escape routes for Bai Shi.
The next moment, flames erupted, followed by a deafening explosion, and the entire house crumbled to the ground.
"Dead?"
One of the Kirigakure ANBU asked.
"Uh, no, the target is still alive."
Another Kirigakure ANBU, skilled in perception, reported the grim news. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he shouted urgently, "Everyone, be careful!"
Before they could react, two vines burst forth from the smoke and dust like lightning, ensnaring two men and rendering them immobile.
Then came a series of bone-crunching sounds that sent chills down everyone's spine, and the two men were instantly reduced to a pool of rotting flesh.
Witnessing the grisly fate of their companions, the remaining Mist Hidden Anbu immediately retreated, keeping a wary distance while eyeing the ruins ahead.
Amid the smoke and dust, Bai Shi slowly emerged, surrounded by retracting wooden pillars.
Although the defensive capabilities of Wood Release: Wood Wall were far inferior to that of Wood Release: Ranking Technique and couldn't withstand the slashing attacks of Uchiha Madara's Power Suit: Susanoo, it was still strong enough to resist a few explosive tags.
Thus, under the protection of this technique, Bai Shi sustained no harm and seized the opportunity to counterattack.
Glancing at the two Kirigakure Anbu members who had been reduced to mush, Bai Shi had an idea and unleashed the Wood Release: Silent Killing Binding Technique. His arm transformed back into flesh and blood.
Observing Bai Shi's series of actions, the leader of the Kirigakure Anbu wore a skeptical expression and inquired, "Is this Wood Release? Are you a ninja from Konoha?"
After hearing the question, Bai Shi's expression remained unchanged; he had no intention of answering. He simply raised his hands and began making seals.
