chapter 36: Meet Again

When Bai Shi thought that no matter where he went in the future, there would be many followers trailing him, he couldn't help but shudder. However, after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't come up with any good solutions, so he could only sigh helplessly, "Forget it, let's take it one step at a time!"

"Anyway, I have the Flying Thunder God Technique in my hands, so as long as I mark myself well, escaping won't be a problem. However, I shouldn't use my original appearance for the time being."

Thinking of this, Bai Shi suddenly looked up at the two men in front of him and asked, "The portrait on the wanted poster doesn't seem to depict my current appearance, right? How did you recognize me?"

The portrait on the bounty poster was his true appearance from his first confrontation with the Kirigakure Anbu, which was the main reason he concluded that the bounty had been issued by the Kirigakure Village.

After all, the Root organization couldn't possibly offer a bounty on him, and the only individuals who had seen his true appearance recently were the Hidden Mist Village.

But he looked like an adult now. How did the two people in front of him confirm his identity?

"This, uh..."

Seeing the two men hesitating, Bai Shi coldly spat out one word: "Speak!"

As he spoke, a powerful oppressive force emanated from him, like a heavy hammer hitting the two men's hearts hard.

Unable to help themselves, the two held their breath, and the thin man hurriedly said, "It's me; my eyes can see through any transformation-type ninjutsu."

Hearing this, Bai Shi was shocked and asked, "Bloodline limit?"

"Um!"

The thin man nodded weakly, confirming Bai Shi's assumption.

Seeing this, Bai Shi snorted coldly and said, "No wonder you didn't want to talk about it. On the black market, a bloodline ninja like you is probably worth a lot of money, right?"

Upon hearing this, the thin man trembled and dared not speak.

"Besides being able to see through changes, do your eyes have any other special abilities?" Bai Shi asked.

"No, my eyes only have this ability, really! I'm not lying to you."

As if he were afraid that Bai Shi would use him to exchange for money, the thin man swore vehemently, nearly crying.

However, Bai Shi didn't buy it. It wasn't that he didn't believe what the other party said, but he had no intention of letting him go.

There are only a few good people in the black market. Seeing how skillfully the other party changed his face, it was clear he wasn't a simple character.

With these two around, Bai Shi couldn't sleep well.

"Now that we have figured out why our identities were exposed, there's no reason to waste any more time."

Thinking this in his mind, Bai Shi decided to take action.

As if sensing the murderous aura from Bai Shi, the thin man cautiously asked, "Sir, can we go now?"

"Go?"

Bai Shi chuckled and asked, "Where are you going?"

Seeing his demeanor, the thin man and the fat man exchanged glances, then both chose to attack first.

However, before they could reach Bai Shi, his hands had already seized their necks.

"M-Mercy!"

Feeling the pressure in their throats, their eyes filled with fear.

*Crack~*

A crisp sound of bones breaking echoed, and Bai Shi crushed the throats of the two men with an expressionless face.

Afterward, he casually performed an earth-style ninjutsu and buried their bodies underground.

Looking back at the Kingdom of Wind, Bai Shi strode into Liangjie Mountain.

Bai Shi was no stranger to Liangjie Mountain. He had lived here for a time while hiding from the Root organization.

However, he did not plan to stay here this time. He intended to go directly over Liangjie Mountain and head to the Bird Country. The reason was simple: the current Wind Country was too chaotic.

Before, he chose to stay here because he had just escaped from the Root Organization and needed to use this chaotic situation as cover.

But now, he had learned the Flying Thunder God Technique, and his safety was guaranteed. If he continued to stay in this place, it would be a living hell. In that case, it would be better to leave early.

Fortunately, the Bird Country was still relatively peaceful for the moment. He planned to stay there for a while to improve his abilities in all aspects, especially his level of [Enhanced Spatial Perception].

At first, he didn't think there was anything wrong, but after using it for a period of time, Bai Shi found that the one-kilometer limit was still a bit uncomfortable.

Therefore, he planned to upgrade its level by one or two tiers.

A few days later.

In the Bird Country.

In the capital.

Bai Shi stood on top of Daming Mansion, gazing at the sparkling lake in the distance, feeling relaxed and happy.

Unlike the endless yellow sand of the Kingdom of Wind, the Bird Country was beautiful with its green mountains and clear waters. It was still spring now, and the scenery here was even more pleasant.

Watching the migratory birds flitting over the lake, Bai Shi couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

After a long time, he came back to his senses and sighed, "Alas! How long can such a beautiful view last?"

The Bird Kingdom lay between the Wind Country and the Earth Kingdom. When the two countries went to war, this place would inevitably become a battlefield. At that time, the peace and tranquility here would cease to exist.

Shaking his head and putting the thoughts aside, Bai Shi changed his identity and rented a small courtyard nearby with the money he had collected from "suppressing bandits" along the way.

After that, his life got back on track.

Every day he practiced or evolved, sometimes doing both at once. Occasionally, when he felt a bit down, he would go out for a walk, admire the scenery, and unwind.

Such a lifestyle could be described as both fulfilling and comfortable. If possible, he really wanted to live like this forever.

However, there are no "ifs" in this world. From the moment he left the Root Organization, some things were destined to be inevitable.

For example, being hunted by the Root Organization.

Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, nearly two months had passed.

That night.

Bai Shi had just finished his routine training and was about to take a rest.

Suddenly, a strong feeling of unease surged in his heart, and without hesitation, he activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

---

A hundred meters away.

Next to a big tree, Bai Shi watched as countless wind blades fell from the sky, shredding his courtyard to pieces in the blink of an eye.

Above the sky, a huge sealing spell had appeared out of nowhere.

Feeling the chakra fluctuations, Bai Shi's face turned extremely grim.

There was no other word for it. This was like using a cannon to kill a fly.

A large-scale attack like this was mainly intended to destroy the enemy's fortress, but now the Root Organization was using it against him. What else could it be?

That's right, the one who attacked him this time was a ninja from the Root Organization. The familiar smell of the parasite on Aburame Ryoma once again filled Bai Shi's nostrils.

Seeing that the sealing technique above him had accumulated power once again, Bai Shi no longer hesitated. He immediately locked onto a marked point four kilometers away and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

In an instant, Bai Shi's figure disappeared from his location.

As he vanished, the Root Organization also lifted the sealing ritual in the sky. Only then did ordinary people in the city dare to breathe heavily.
