The communication method used by Watergate is an ultra-small bird.

It's expensive because the birds are so small that it's not easy to catch. Even if they do, they can be killed if they are not careful, because it is really too small and fragile.

But as long as it survives, it can be sold for a high price, and many hunters in Konoha Village make a living by catching this small bird.

The birds, which are not even bigger than a human finger when they fold their wings, are kept in captivity in a small bamboo tube about the size of a scroll.

Regular feeding, and release for training, usually raised in the bamboo tube, do not worry about them will be suffocated, the bamboo tube is specially made, there are many ventilation holes.

At critical moments, these birds can be used to deliver messages, and the range is about tens or hundreds of kilometers, which is a relatively long distance.

Mizumon doesn't usually bring this kind of thing, but now because he has to lead two little guys on a mission, he considerate Mizumon and specially bought three birds when he left Konoha.

I didn't expect it to come in handy.

The three birds were released, and no one could guarantee that they would be able to return to Konoha Village, and it was no problem to know the way, and the flight distance was enough, but they could easily be preyed upon by larger birds, so Watergate released the three birds in different batches, and as long as one of them could go back, it was enough.

After delivering the message, he moved Chiba and Kakashi to a clean-looking tent, gave them a brief treat, and then began to deal with the rest of the scene.

Those who were knocked unconscious by him were all tied to a few large trees not far away, and only provided them with the minimum level of food every day, so that they would not starve to death.

All the "weapons" of these people were destroyed by the Water Gate, and the gold that had been dug up was all sealed in the seal scroll by him, and as for the mine, he did not fill it. Although the mission included filling in the mine, he found a lot of exposed gold in the mine when he cleaned the mine, indicating that it was a very large bonanza.

Konoha doesn't have any money to spare, if it's an ordinary poor mine, the output is not large, and the difficulty is high, then the landfill will be landfilled. But this is a rich mine, and the difficulty of mining is obviously not high, ordinary people can easily mine, so if you can let Konoha eat this gold mine, it will also be a great supplement to Konoha's finances, isn't it?

Although Mizuto is just an "ordinary" shinobi, he has already tried to start thinking from the Hokage's point of view, which also lays a solid foundation for him to become the Hokage later.

……

The support only arrived three days later, and it seems that Chiba and they are lucky, and one of the three little birds must have returned to Konoha Village.

The team is not large, only five ninjas, after all, the most important part of the battle is over, and this five-person team is here to pick up the safe return of the Watergate team.

They are a trio of Hachiki Sakushige, Pig Deer Butterfly, and a medical ninja.

Except for the medical ninja Chiba who has never seen it, everyone else is still known, especially Uncle Shuo Mao, who was still on a mission outside when Chiba and them set off before, but he didn't expect him to come back so soon.

As soon as he entered the tent, Shuo Mao came to Qianyu's side for the first time.

"How? Feeling better? ”

He asked with concern.

It's not that he doesn't care about his son, or that he pretends to be in front of other people or something, it's mainly that Mizuto has made it clear in his letter asking for help - Kakashi is slightly injured, and Chiba is seriously injured.

Kakashi's injuries looked serious, but they were only muscle injuries, and with the magic of medical ninjutsu, this kind of injury could easily heal, so in Mizumon's opinion, Kakashi was only suffering from minor injuries. But Qianyu was much more serious, with broken arms, comminuted fractures of shoulders, and varying degrees of damage to internal organs, which could no longer be recovered by his own means.

Of course, if no one really cares, Qianyu can still recover on his own.

Bone fragments can control the return to their original position, and then change the biomagnetic field in their body, accelerating the rate of metabolism, and as long as there is enough time, he can also recover on its own. It's just that he hasn't had a lot of time, so he hasn't done that yet.

"It's much better, Uncle Shuomao, has your mission been completed?"

"It's done, you don't have to worry about me, come, this is the ninja who is best at healing bone injuries in Konoha Hospital, and the three generations ask us not to leave you with any disabilities."

Hachiki Shuo Shigeru said, reaching out to introduce the white-clothed ninja behind him.

"That's right, my mission is to help you recover completely, please rest assured, there will be absolutely no disability left, and you will be able to recover as before."

Whether this is true or not, at least it is extremely comforting.

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely be able to let go of most of your worries when you heard this, but Qian Yu never really worried about it from the beginning, who made him different from others?

In addition to Qimu Shuomao and the medical endurance, the remaining trio of pigs, deer and butterflies also came over to help.

After all, both Chiba and Kakashi are injured, and they basically can't return to Konoha on their own, so someone has to carry them back.

And the pig deer butterfly itself is a combination that is very good at control, and the combat power is very strong, coupled with the strong attack power of Qimu Shuomao, the safety factor of this team is completely unspeakable, even if it is the shadow relatives of other other ninja villages, they may not be able to help this group of people.

After a brief conversation, Watergate and Shuomao stepped out of the tent, they still had a gold mine to discuss.

In the tent, Chiba lay there and let the medical staff endure it, and the trio of pigs, deer and butterflies came to his side in a leisurely manner.

Especially the Autumn Road Dingza, that big man, basically standing in a belly. Originally, the tent was not big, and the light was relatively dim, but as soon as he squeezed in, the whole tent was instantly filled, and the light was mostly obscured, and it felt as if it was getting dark.

"Dingza, can't you just wait outside, such a small tent, it's just that you're filling it up alone, okay?"

Nara Shikaku turned his head to look at Akido Dingza, with a helpless expression.

"Hey......

Regarding the complaints of his companions, Akido Dingza didn't speak, just scratched his head and smiled.

"Okay, okay, Lujiu, let's take a look at Qianyu."

On the other side, Yamanaka Haiyi chuckled and said that the relationship between the three of them was actually far closer than what appeared on the surface, and the relationship between the three families was also as close as a family, so there were not too many scruples when they spoke.

"Yes, we're here to see Chiba......" Nara Shikahisa patted his head, then turned back and looked down at Chiha, "Nakai Chiba, right, I heard my sister talk about you, do you know who my sister is?" You know, that's no problem, I heard my dad say that he wants to invite you to my sister's birthday party, hehe, you must go then, no matter what, even if you go out on a mission, you have to come back, you know? Otherwise, hehe, the consequences you know. ”

Nara Shikahisa is actually a very familiar person, and he looks less than twenty years old on the outside, but now he is already a Konoha middle ninja, and he is the elite of the middle ninja, and together with his other two friends, they are also very popular among the new generation of ninjas in Konoha. It is said that the top management of Konoha is already discussing whether to promote Nara Shikakuya to Shangnin after Mizumon?

After all, Lu Jiu's IQ is very high, and he can be called resourceful, and such a person should be promoted well no matter which village he is in. What's more, if Lu Jiu becomes a Shangnin, their Pig Deer Butterfly trio can directly form a separate team, instead of going out to perform some high-level tasks like now, there must be a Shangnin to lead the team.

Of course, this is just a rumor among the people, and as for whether the high-level has really discussed this kind of issue, only the parties concerned know.

Qianyu and Pig Deer Butterfly trio chatted for a long time, Lu Jiu was enthusiastic, Hai Yi was gentle, and Ding Za was honest, these three people were very good personalities, although it was impossible to become friends so quickly, but I have to say that after a short conversation between Qianyu and them, the friendship between the two sides has been much better.

……

The treatment of Chiba lasted about half an hour.

Of course, this treatment is only temporary, and even if it is an orthopedic expert, it is impossible to cure Chiba all at once. So for now, it's just a matter of making sure that his injuries won't worsen, and then after returning to the village, he will be treated more professionally.

Regarding the matter of the gold mine, Watergate and Uncle Shuomao also seem to have discussed the end and made a plan. Then Shuo Mao and Mizumon attacked at the same time, sealing the entrance to the mine with ninjutsu, and removing all traces of man-made to prevent others from discovering the anomaly here.

After all these things were done, the group finally set off for their home.

Because there were a lot of "burdens", the movement speed was very slow, and it took nearly five days for Chiba to return to Konoha Village.

And he was sent to Konoha Hospital as soon as possible, okay, this time it was faster, and he "re-entered the palace" not long after leaving, and the little nurses in Konoha Hospital all knew him, and some even pointed at him, and he was hospitalized and followed up in the zoo - except that he became the animal, not the one who watched the animals.

The day after being admitted to the hospital, as expected, Mizuto and Kakashi came, as did Miyome, and it was clear that they had something to say to Chiha.
