Looking at the several Mist Ninjas rushing toward him, Baishi did not hesitate at all. He raised his hand and performed the Unmatched Ninjutsu—Water Style: Water Wave Hand.

In an instant, a massive stream of water was created, crashing into the ninjas in front of him like a series of powerful waves.

Caught off guard, several Mist Ninjas were forced to retreat.

Not only them, but even the ninjas in the rear camp were thrown into disarray by the surge of water.

However, the Mist Ninjas participating in this sneak attack were all elites, so no one was killed in this initial wave of attacks.

Seeing this, Baishi was about to channel more energy to create additional water waves, but at that moment, it started to drizzle; the raindrops falling on him felt as painful as needles.

"No, this is a ninjutsu!"

In an instant, Baishi realized something was amiss. He quickly formed hand seals with his hands and executed a defensive ninjutsu—Wood Release: Wood Wall.

A row of wooden pillars sprang up from the ground, bending and forming a protective barrier around him.

Almost immediately, a dense series of "ding-ding" sounds reverberated through the air.

He then noticed that the rain had transformed into countless projectiles, and they shot toward Baishi like a violent storm.

In just a breath of time, the wooden wall protecting Baishi was pierced through, resembling a hedgehog.

Fortunately, the wooden barrier was sturdy enough, and the rain-charged weapons could not penetrate it, leaving Baishi unharmed.

However, because of this onslaught, he could no longer keep the upper hand against the Mist Ninjas.

Not only that, but as soon as he released the ninjutsu, a barrage of attacks descended upon him—kunai, shuriken, exploding tags, ninjutsu—everything imaginable was thrown at him.

Facing these attacks, Baishi displayed no hint of panic. Instead, he even had the composure to say, "I'll be back!"

With that, he instantly locked onto a mark in the distance and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique. The space around him fluctuated slightly, and his figure disappeared, leaving behind a group of Mist Ninjas staring at one another in bewilderment.

A few hundred meters away, Baishi's figure appeared silently. He picked up the special kunai on the ground, then locked onto a mark farther away and initiated the Flying Thunder God Technique once more.

After a few repetitions, he arrived at a cave five kilometers away.

From the beginning, Baishi had never intended to confront hundreds of elite Mist Ninjas alone. He was not the leader of the Sand Village, so why should he take on such a thankless task?

His true goal was to annoy the Mist Ninjas—after all, they had made him unhappy.

In that case, he didn't mind toying with them.

Now he had the means to do so.

This was also the perfect opportunity for him to vent his frustrations; otherwise, he would eventually snap.

In the cave, Baishi sat cross-legged, silently recovering the chakra in his body.

Time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, more than two hours had gone by.

Suddenly, Baishi opened his eyes and murmured to himself, "I'm here; are you ready?"

After saying this, his figure vanished from the spot, racing toward the Mist Camp through another pre-arranged route.

Although Baishi was confident that the Hidden Mist Village wouldn't quickly find a way to counter the Flying Thunder God Technique, he still prepared various routes in advance, just in case.

After all, there is often a fine line between confidence and arrogance. It would be disastrous if the other party had some unexpected means to track him down.

For safety reasons, he would avoid taking the same route or stopping at the same place.

After a few breaths, Baishi spotted the familiar camp.

However, whether it was due to the Mist Ninjas believing what he had said earlier or for some other reason, they discovered his presence before he could approach.

Realizing the situation was dire, Baishi executed the Flying Thunder God Technique without hesitation and retreated from the Hidden Mist camp. He did not even conduct a routine check; he was extremely cautious.

Even so, the other party had no means to counter him. Half an hour later, Baishi appeared nearby once more. Just like before, his presence was detected before he could get close.

So, he fled again.

Baishi couldn't believe that the other side would consistently be this vigilant. If that were true, then he had successfully achieved his goal of irritating them.

If not, he would find an opportunity and act freely according to his whims.

However, during this process, he must remain very careful. He would rather miss an opportunity than fall into a trap, always vigilant towards the enemy's tricks that could ensnare him.

With a plan in mind, Baishi no longer felt anxious and gradually engaged in a game of cat and mouse with the Mist Ninjas.

He decided to check back periodically—whether it was after half an hour, an hour, or only a few minutes.

If he saw an opportunity, he would harass them. He didn't seek any definitive results; he would strike and then flee, never giving them a chance to retaliate.

If he found no good chance, he would simply hang around for a while, placing psychological pressure on the enemy and keeping their entire camp on edge.

In this manner, time slowly passed as the two sides played their game.

The next day.

Early morning.

As the first rays of sunlight illuminated the earth, Baishi appeared once more not far from the Kirigakure Camp.

After just a few breaths, four members of the Kirigakure Anbu, wearing black robes and masks, blocked his way.

Seeing their approach, Baishi teased, "Why are there only four of you? Where are the others?"

There was a reason for his question.

Not long ago, the other side had gathered all the jonin, set traps, and plotted against him, attempting to lure him to his doom. However, due to his cautious actions, he managed to evade them.

Afterward, he used the enemy's own strategy, sending a wooden clone to feign capture, luring many Kirigakure jonin to surround and kill him. His real body then seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Kirigakure camp.

During that encounter, he made no attempts at discretion and directly struck with Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique. In just a few minutes, he killed and injured dozens of Mist Ninjas and subsequently left in a dashing manner.

After that incident, the Mist Ninjas adopted a much more cautious approach and no longer sought to take the initiative.

That was why Baishi mocked them now; he knew they wouldn't act recklessly.

Just as expected, upon hearing his words, the auras of the four Kirigakure Anbu members fluctuated slightly as if they were considering a response, but ultimately they refrained from acting.

Realizing this, Baishi sneered. He then bent down defenselessly and picked up a stone from the ground.

Flipping the stone over, he revealed a tree-shaped mark on it, which was his Flying Thunder God technique.

He crushed it to pieces with one hand and glanced toward the Hidden Mist camp, noting that the expressions of the Mist Ninjas appeared somewhat defeated.

Well, under the circumstances of the previous night, anyone who could manage to sleep would be considered careless, let alone conserving their energy.

In this state, how could their condition be good?

"Now that this has happened, I wonder if the other side will continue with their plan to attack the Sand Village?"

As he pondered, Baishi suddenly felt a deep chill, as if something was secretly watching him. He looked in the direction of the sensation but found nothing.

"Is it an illusion?"

Baishi frowned slightly and quickly dismissed the notion: "No, it can't be an illusion. Though that gaze was well hidden, the malice behind it was quite clear."

The inexplicable feeling of being watched cast a shadow over Baishi's heart.

Thus, he chose to ignore the Mist Ninjas. With a thought, he activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and vanished from the spot.
