But what method could solve this urgent crisis?
I couldn't move around right now. Even if I could, my body was still too weak to refine Chakra. I had no way to hunt in the forest, and I didn't have any ninja tools like Kunai or any other hunting gear on hand. I couldn't provide them with food.
Tch! And according to what I had learned from Zong Mi earlier, they would run out of food tomorrow.
There was an abandoned town nearby, but it had probably already been picked clean. There likely wasn't anything left there.
As for the surrounding area, after Kannabi Bridge, Iwa had retreated in defeat, and there were no more battlefields. Konoha probably wouldn't pursue them either. After all, one should not chase a cornered enemy. Iwa's desperate all-or-nothing attempt had failed. A dog would leap over a wall when desperate; if they were pushed too hard, Iwa might impulsively throw all the troops they had deployed into a desperate battle against Konoha. The war would still end with Konoha's victory, but Konoha would inevitably be badly weakened. In the end, although Iwa would suffer a crushing defeat and grievous losses, Konoha would gain nothing from it. Neither side would have it easy after the war. Both would be left wounded, only benefiting the other three ninja villages.
So there wouldn't be any cleanup of the battlefield either...
Sigh...
Having made up his mind, Chiba began analyzing the situation again and drawing up a new plan to help them, determined to ensure they could still live well after he left.
After all, he had to return to Konoha. He might not even be able to stay here for long. Although his foot still needed treatment, and he had yet to determine exactly what was wrong
