Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

Bai Mingyu was a little hesitant. .

There is no doubt that chakra conducting metal is a good thing.

Although it is of little use to himself - according to Bai Mingyu's ability and fighting style, he does not need any special ninja tools, and even if it is a weapon made of chakra conductive metal, it may not be more useful than Bai Xue . But for Izumi and Kimimaro, an excellent set of ninja tools can greatly improve their strength.

Moreover, conductive metals are not only used to make weapons, but can also be used to make armor.

——Speaking of which, the chakra armor that Shiro Mingyu and Izumi and others obtained during their mission in the Land of Snow has been initially analyzed and deconstructed by the Konoha Ninja Tool Department, and a batch of three-type and two-type armors have even been released. Prototype product. However, because it is still in the experimental stage and the output is very small, only a small number of ninjas are currently equipped with some to test the actual effect. Therefore, only a few people, including the third generation himself, know about this matter, while others, including Bai Mingyu and Quan He and Xiyan, the people who brought the chakra armor back to Konoha, didn't know the inside story.

Of course, even if the experimental results are ideal, further improvement and perfection are still needed. It will be at least a few years before the ninjas in Konoha are actually assembled...

……

Closer to home.

Although Bai Mingyu was a little tempted by the price offered by the old village chief, he was also very aware of the risks involved.

"If the ore the old village chief mentioned is really a chakra conductive metal... I'm afraid it's not just the bandits who are eyeing this village."

To put it bluntly, although chakra conductive metals are very valuable, no matter how valuable they are, to ordinary people they are just a special batch of precious metals.

Once in the hands of a ninja, the value of various ninja tools and equipment with special properties made using it will soar dozens or even hundreds of times. Become a truly priceless treasure.

That is to say...

Now the people who look at these metal mines are just a group of bandits who want to make a fortune, but as long as the news continues to spread, other people will soon get wind of it, which is likely to include ninjas from other villages. At that time, Bai Mingyu could not guarantee that he and his party would be safe and sound.

After listening to Bai Mingyu's analysis of the pros and cons, Quan remained silent.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said tentatively: "How about... let's inform the village? Or let the old village chief hire Konoha ninjas to guard the mine. If Konoha sends ninja troops, others You definitely don’t dare to act rashly, right?”

"...Let's wait and see what happens first."

Bai Mingyu smiled and was noncommittal.

Asking for help from Konoha is of course one way, but in that case, the batch of chakra conductive metal originally agreed to be given to Bai Mingyu and the others as reward will most likely be pocketed by the village. Moreover, they had just left the village a few days ago, and now when they return to contact the village, they always feel like they have slapped themselves in the face.

"Well, anyway, let's take this commission first and treat it as an experience. Even if ninjas from other countries sneak in, you and Kimimaro should be able to deal with ordinary enemies. I believe they won't dare to do it. A large-scale ninja force is dispatched to the Land of Fire."

Bai Mingyu made a decision quickly.

Izumi had no objections, and Kimimaro had no objections even more. This gray-haired young lady actually had no independent opinions and almost obeyed Bai Mingyu and Izumi's words.

Immediately, Bai Mingyu told the old village chief the decision made after discussion by several people.

The old village chief breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly put down the nervous look on his face, squeezed out a smile and said: "On behalf of our village, I would like to thank you in advance. These warriors have come all the way, and the journey must be very hard. Please come with me to the village to have a rest... By the way, do you know the names of the samurai masters?"

"name……"

Bai Mingyu subconsciously glanced at the two people around him and scratched his head.

Since the identity of the Konoha ninja is concealed, it is natural that the name must be made up accordingly, otherwise it will be easy for anyone to see the clues...

After thinking about it, Bai Mingyu said: "My name...is Esdeath, and the two next to me are my companions. This girl is called Chitong, and this white-haired boy is my brother...his name is Ya. .”

"what?"

Izumi and Kimimaro looked a little strange.

But in front of outsiders, they all accepted their new names silently.

"It turns out to be Lord Esdeath... please come in."

Soon, the old village chief led Bai Mingyu and others into the village, while other villagers were busy cleaning the blood from the ground, collecting the bodies of the dead villagers and bandits one by one, and carrying them to the fields outside the village for burial. bury.

That afternoon, after having a hearty meal at the old village chief's house, Bai Mingyu began to try to get more information from the old village chief, and at the same time tried to ask about the situation of the mine outside the village - although it was unlikely that he would make a mistake. , but if the mine outside the village is not actually a chakra conductive metal mine, the misunderstanding is huge.

"Do you want to go to that mine and have a look? That's fine... Then please sit here for a while, and I'll call a few people to come over and lead you."

The old village chief got up and walked out on crutches.

Bai Mingyu looked back at the girl next to him: "Quan, you and Kimimaro stay in the village first, and use this time to understand the situation in the village. If you find any clues, we will discuss it after I come back in the afternoon. .”

"By the way, there's this guy..."

With that said, Bai Mingyu opened the zipper of his backpack.

A furry head poked out from inside. Ibrahimovic looked out, then jumped out, walked around on the ground a few times, ran to Quan's legs and curled up and lay down.

Speaking of which, this Eevee has been in Bai Mingyushen for a long time.

It was originally opened from the treasure chest on the way to the Snow Kingdom... However, until now, Bai Mingyu still didn't see what use this little thing had besides being cute. However, Quan had a good impression of it. After all, girls like this cute little animal. Since there was no hope of fighting, Bai Mingyu simply gave it to Quan as a pet.

Maybe Izumi can develop its ability...

"Well, leave it to me. Bai Yu-kun, you also have to be careful." Quan nodded and said.

……

It won't take a while.

The old village chief came back with two strong young men. He briefly introduced their identities. They were miners who had been mining in the mountains all year round and were familiar with the road conditions in the mountains.

Soon, Bai Mingyu followed them and walked towards the mountain from the path behind the village.
