Konoha cat Breeder

Chapter 4: Big Beauty and Little Tsundere

--

After looking into those eyes, Tonari felt his hands and feet instantly turn cold, gradually becoming numb from his fingertips.

Although the outside of his body was very hot, Tonari felt a coldness in his heart, which made him shiver involuntarily.

Then, he could clearly feel a deathly aura rising from his heart, slowly corroding his body and devouring his will, causing him to involuntarily desire to die.

However, this feeling disappeared without a trace before it could engulf his entire body.

He thought about his past life on the battlefield. As a battlefield doctor, the only thing he couldn't do was to assume that he was going to die; otherwise, who would save his comrades who were fighting on the front line?

Therefore, the first thing Tonari learned after going to the battlefield was to hide. Only by hiding himself could he save others!

A hint of doubt flashed across those eyes that were opened like lanterns.

"Eh——"

The Two-Tails would never have thought that a little fellow without any chakra could recover from his death stare so quickly.

Although it is the Two-Tails, the tails obviously do not represent the strength of a tailed beast. The different colors of his two eyes are not without meaning. In essence, his eyes can see both the Yin and Yang worlds.

Even though he could only see the Yin and Yang worlds and was unable to interfere, it was still not something a brat without even chakra could endure.

This was a test from the Two-Tails to its new Jinchūriki. Only if he could resist was he barely qualified to become the Jinchūriki who imprisoned him. Otherwise, he could be killed with just one look...

What are you doing?!

Slowly bending down, Nibi lay on the ground again.

Since you can't kill him by staring at him, you can have a little communication with him.

It's not that he didn't want to break free from the shackles of this seal, but when he was changing the container, at the last moment, the previous Jinchūriki's heart was broken and should have died long ago. However, he didn't want to disappear with the Jinchūriki, so he used his own ability to maintain him, not letting him die immediately, and quickly found a new container, or released himself.

Even the final sealing technique had utilized some of its chakra.

It was because of this that a whole day passed without the Two-Tails summoning Tonari, as he had to fall into a deep sleep.

Even now, he has only recovered partially.

But even if it was a part of his strength, it was not a reason for Tonari to be able to withstand the death glare of the Two-Tails.

"Little guy, your soul is very strange. It doesn't have much connection with the Yin and Yang worlds of this world? Although the relationship is slowly being established, this situation should only occur in babies!" A not-very-sharp voice echoed in the space, filled with doubt.

Tonari even had an illusion that the source of the voice had a hint of politeness in its words.

This was a very strange feeling. He had clearly felt like he was going to die just moments ago.

In the originally dark space, a ray of blue light suddenly appeared and lit up on the other side of the fence. This flame gave off a creepy feeling, reminiscent of ghost fire.

Then, a creature crawled on the ground, with hair like blue flames on its body, two long tails flying behind it, and two eyes the size of copper bells, but different colors, appearing in front of Tonari under the illumination of the faint blue fire.

What a big cat!

This was the first thought that came to Tonari's mind after seeing the appearance of the Two-Tails.

In fact, it is not wrong to say that Nibi, in this appearance, is a giant tiger with two tails.

This is the legendary Two-Tails!

"You're... the Two-Tails, right?"

Tonari couldn't help but ask as he looked at this creature that was as big as a mountain.

"Huh? You know me?" 

The Two-Tails narrowed his eyes slightly and looked down at this human, who was below his eye level even while lying on the ground, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Um."

Tonari nodded calmly, walked a little further, and was about to approach the fence gate. Inside was the territory of the giant beast that exuded a terrifying aura. "Because the old man called you in front of me yesterday."

After hearing what Tonari said, Nibi pondered, "He is a rather clever little fellow."

"May I have your name?"

Seeing that Tonari didn't seem to be very afraid of him, Nibi couldn't help but ask.

"Tonari! My name is Tonari!"

Tonari grinned, squinted his eyes, and revealed a very sunny smile, bringing a ray of light to this dark space.

Looking at Tonari's innocent childlike smile, Nibi was stunned.

How many years had it been? How many years had it been since anyone had smiled so warmly in front of him?

Everyone, everyone that Nibi had come into contact with, when they saw him for the first time and learned of his identity, all had expressions of extreme shock, fear, and even terror.

After experiencing such things over and over again, the originally gentle creature slowly turned into the terrifying monster that people expected, full of hostility, evil thoughts, and corroded by death.

Even his own Jinchūriki, even the previous Jinchūriki with whom he had gotten along relatively well, also filled with fear of him; the only difference was that he concealed it better.

"I told you my name, but what is yours?" Tonari looked straight at Nibi, waiting for its answer.

Nibi came back to his senses and suppressed his useless and meaningless sighs, allowing his eyes to turn cold again as he looked at Tonari.

This little guy just concealed it better.

"Two-Tails!" Nibi spat out two words coldly.

Friendliness, appreciation, and even recognition were nothing but hypocritical things that were of no use!

"Of course I know you are the Two-Tails, but 'Two-Tails' is your race—just like Persian cats, Garfield cats, Siamese cats, etc. These are all names of races. What I asked is your real name." Tonari counted on his fingers, feeling playful.

Although he had the memories of two people in his mind and these two memories had completely integrated, it did not mean that his original childlike mentality had completely disappeared.

Moreover, in Tonari's opinion, no matter what he communicated with the Two-Tails about, as long as they were talking, more topics would inevitably arise!

The more topics there were, the more opportunities for contact!

Only in this way could he find the weak point in Nibi's heart and have a chance...

"Hmph..." Nibi snorted coldly and looked at Tonari with cold eyes.

It was now one with Tonari. Although it did not know what Tonari was thinking, it had seen everything Tonari did during the day. Now he was acting cute in front of it; in the eyes of the Two-Tails, there must be some purpose behind it.

But Tonari didn't seem to notice the cold expression on the Two-Tails' face.

He held his chin and muttered to himself, "You look pretty, but you're a little bit arrogant..."

Suddenly, Tonari's eyes lit up, and he turned his right hand into a fist and hammered it into his left palm. "Which of these two names do you think sounds better: Big Beauty or Little Tsundere?"

"..."
