Naruto evolution system

Having made the decision, Baishi no longer hesitated and immediately controlled the wooden dragon to raise its head, preparing to launch a new round of attacks.

Of course, he couldn't really launch an attack. The chakra in his body was basically drained. If he continued, he would probably shorten his life.

So, this show of force was just an illusion.

After all, running away also requires strategy. The four people on the opposite side were all senior ninjas with extremely rich combat experience. If he fled directly, they would definitely intercept him, so he needed to employ some tricks.

Sure enough, seeing the wooden dragon about to pounce, Aburame Ryoma and the others immediately became extremely alert, either preparing to dodge or looking for opportunities to counterattack. No one anticipated that Baishi would choose to run away at this time.

There was no other reason for this. Firstly, on the surface, Baishi still had the upper hand and had no reason to escape. Secondly, the 'Four Directions Sealing Formation' was still operational, and Baishi had no way to escape.

Thus, their plan involved continuously consuming Baishi's chakra and capturing him alive when he could no longer maintain his ninjutsu.

However, they had not considered what to do if the Four-Directions Sealing Array was broken. Now, Baishi provided them with the answer.

With a thought, Baishi controlled the wooden dragon and rushed straight toward Aburame Ryoma, who was closest to the barrier light curtain.

In his field of vision, the wooden dragon's head continued to enlarge, and through its eyes, he seemed to see the white stone inside.

Without any hesitation, Aburame Ryoma immediately performed the Insect Substitute Technique, and the other three seized the opportunity to launch their attacks.

However, what no one expected was that the wooden dragon did not hit 'Aburame Ryoma,' but instead crashed headfirst into the barrier light curtain in a nearly suicidal manner.

Seeing this, the four of them sensed something was wrong simultaneously.

The next moment, accompanied by a crackling sound like breaking glass, the barrier light curtain shattered, and the wooden dragon that collided with it also shattered into fragments.

At the moment the light curtain disappeared, a figure emerged from the wooden dragon's body and ran into the depths of the forest without looking back.

Watching the rapidly disappearing figure, Aburame Ryoma shouted, "Chase! He doesn't have much chakra left; he can't run far!"

In reality, Baishi didn't have a lot of chakra left, but he was still capable of running away.

Thanks to his stats—14 points in [Strength], 17 points in [Agility], 21 points in [Constitution], and 22 points in [Intelligence]—his running speed in the forest wasn't much slower than that of Aburame Ryoma and the others, and he was even faster.

The most crucial point was that maintaining such speed did not require additional chakra consumption. With his physique, he could run for an extended period.

In contrast, for Aburame Ryoma and his team to catch up with him, they would need to continue expending chakra.

However, after the previous battle, they had little chakra remaining. If they continued to expend it like this, even if they managed to catch up with Baishi, they might not be able to match him.

But if they did not use chakra, the other side wouldn't be able to catch up with him, which meant the mission would fail—an unacceptable outcome for Aburame Ryoma and his team. As long as there was any possibility, they would not abandon their mission.

Thus, they chose to continue the pursuit.

But regardless of their choices, the outcome was already determined.

Ultimately, the two sides engaged in several fierce battles, and while Baishi paid some price, he finally managed to shake off their pursuit.

······

Time flew, and three days passed.

**Bird Country.**

Baishi hid in a deep forest, quietly recovering from his injuries.

Thanks to his Level II [Self-Healing] and [Toxin Resistance], as well as 21 points in [Constitution], he recovered to full condition in just three days. Only then did he have the time to review the previous battle.

First, there was the scarlet talisman. When the other party had just taken it out, Baishi had a familiar feeling of being connected mentally to it.

He hadn't had time to think about it at the time, but upon reflection, wasn't that familiar feeling similar to the connection he had experienced during Orochimaru's experiment, when he helped Yamato solve the issue of Hashirama's cells going out of control, connecting to his own cells in the process?

Clearly, the talisman was sealing his cells, or rather, his blood. He didn't know how Danzo had used this method to strengthen the connection and locate him.

However, this kind of talisman likely couldn't detect too far a distance; otherwise, the ninjas of the Root Organization would have caught up with him long ago.

Upon realizing this, Baishi's tense nerves relaxed a little.

Nonetheless, this remained a hidden danger. With his current speed of strength improvement, he likely wouldn't be able to match the Root Organization in the short term.

Three days prior, had the other party not been cautious and hesitant to kill him, he would have likely died.

With this lesson learned, the other side would presumably be more prepared next time, which meant that if he encountered this situation in the future, the danger would be greater than before.

"No, I need to master a method of rapid transfer as soon as possible."

To achieve this goal, Baishi could think of two methods: one was flight, the other was space movement.

In the ninja world, the ability to fly is a significant advantage, but ninjas who can fly are extremely rare, and the methods they use to achieve flight vary.

Among them, the easiest to replicate is the path of the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, which involves learning the ninjutsu—Earth Style: Super Light and Heavy Rock Technique.

With his current Level VI Earth attribute chakra affinity, it shouldn't be too difficult to learn.

However, this ninjutsu was a secret of Iwagakure Village, and he had no way of obtaining it.

As for other methods of flight, Baishi quickly dismissed them.

In this case, the only option left was space transfer.

To achieve this goal, what ninjutsu was more suitable than the S-rank ninjutsu—Flying Thunder God Technique?

Although it also carried a slight limitation—he couldn't choose the teleportation location arbitrarily—it would be sufficient for him to escape the pursuit of the Root Organization.

Coincidentally, this ninjutsu was found in the scroll he looted from Danzo before leaving Konoha.

With this thought in mind, Baishi took out a sealed scroll, unsealed it, and retrieved the scroll containing the Flying Thunder God Technique.

However, after just a few glances, his brows furrowed.

There was no other reason; according to the scroll, the most crucial aspect of practicing this ninjutsu was having a strong spatial perception ability. Without it, practicing successfully would be difficult. If the perception ability was inadequate, even if one forced the practice, they might end up in an unknown space during the transfer process, leading to entrapment.

This was similar to summoning: before signing a blood contract, if the coordinates were unclear and one performed it at will, they might end up losing themselves.

This was indeed the case with Jiraiya in the beginning. If he hadn't been fortunate enough to end up in Myoboku Mountain, he would likely have died long ago. How could he have been called one of the Three Ninjas today?

There was no doubt that Baishi's spatial perception ability was only at an ordinary level. Opening a sealed scroll was manageable, but attempting to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique seemed unrealistic.

Of course, this was normal, but was his situation normal?

With the help of the 'system,' even without having the corresponding talent, he could evolve it, and spatial perception ability was no exception.

"I hope no one will disturb me during this time!"

After setting a goal for himself, Baishi put away the scroll. After confirming his objective, he began a new round of evolution.
