Naruto: Paws and Whiskers

The next day, a row of rats was displayed along the street, deliberately arranged by Takeshi.

What's the benefit of putting all these efforts without publicizing the feat. Besides, the rats were arranged in neat and tidy manner.

The early risers in the morning were startled, and they gathered to marvel at the display. Although it was a bit shocking, people in the turbulent era had witnessed plenty of corpses, so they weren't overly frightened. Instead, they praised the display in unison.

There are many cats that can catch mice, but there are very few cats like Takeshi who can catch a bunch of mice in one night at only half a year old. So, in the morning, Nohara Megumi happily served Takeshi extra food.

Of course, Rin had to whisper a reminder, "It's okay to catch rats, but you mustn't eat them unless necessary." Takeshi was still young, and his resistance was not strong.

Most rats lived in dirty and filthy places, and they could easily be eaten without identification, which could lead to illness.

He didn't eat mice. If it weren't for his sleeping issues and the points he earned, he wouldn't even bother to catch those second-guessing people.

Fortunately, he earned more than 200 points by catching a dozen mice that night. In addition to the more than 300 points earned by displaying them outside the door for everyone to watch, he could earn more than 300 points after buying Needle Jizo.

Takeshi also fought hard not to be played around by Guy. He tried Jizo once. However, he had never fought against weapons such as kunai, so the specific effect was difficult to determine.

After all, the power of ninjutsu was closely related to chakra, and his own chakra was still too little. Chakra was extracted and fused from physical energy and spiritual energy in a certain ratio.

Takeshi's mental capabilities was definitely far stronger than that of ordinary ninja beasts. His shortcoming was his physical fitness.

There were many ways to do this in the store. For example, eating special cat food all year round. In addition, there was special cat food for Ninja cats worth 300 points each. The effect said, "Consuming it all year round is of great benefit to Ninja cats."

In short, they were consumables that needed to be eaten all year round. Takeshi happened to have more than 300 points on hand, so he secretly redeemed one in the morning before the food was served.

The taste wasn't bad. But after eating one portion, he didn't change much. He didn't know if the influence of this thing was too subtle or if it was useless. Anyway, after eating it, Takeshi began to feel like 300 points had been wasted.

Maybe it was his own misunderstanding... He comforted itself in his heart, and then turned his grief and anger into appetite, and ate an increased version of breakfast - the breakfast of Ninja Cat is not simple, it must be a combination of meat and vegetables, and nutritional balance.

This was some experience the family gained from asking for advice from the Inuzuka clan.

Takeshi stuffed himself on breakfast. Since Rin had permission from the teacher, she took Takeshi to academy after breakfast.

On the way, he was put down on the ground and walked on his own to prevent him from becoming too fat after being immobile for a long time. Takeshi did not wander around.

After learning the lesson from Kakashi, he had decided to stay in the Low-level area. Wait until he was no longer afraid of being cheated, and then consider developing other "copies" of his playground.

Otherwise, as a kitten, he was afraid that he would be cheated by these shady ninjas until there was no fur left on his cat.

But class life was also boring. Being taken to class was different from going by himself. Like Haimaru, he had to stay on the table and would be noticed if there was any movement.

The key was not to leave early. This was very uncomfortable. Takeshi lay on the table with a dull expression on his face as he spent a difficult day.

Fortunately, Obito didn't seem to have changed. At least his speech and behavior were normal, which made him relieved. But on the other hand, he noticed that Haimaru was more hostile to him today.

During class, Takeshi could feel that guy staring at her all the time - this was a beast's intuition. Is it because of Needle Jizo? He's not certain, but what is certain is... 'I will have a battle with you sooner or later.'

When leaving the classroom, a cat and a dog looked at each other, and the atmosphere was as tense as a decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City.

However, the next second, one of them was held down by Inuzuka Hana, and the other was held in the arms of Nohara Rin, and they were each on the floor.

Next, they parted ways. The fighting spirit was raging, but he couldn't help himself. Takeshi sighed inwardly, if that silly dog dared to attack, he would definitely let the other party taste the power of Needle Jizo. A ninja dog should be able to earn him a lot of points. But it was destined to have little chance.

Both Rin and Hana understood that predators don't tolerate competition. They controlled the two ninja beasts tightly.

As long as they were in the classroom, they would never leave each other and would not let Takeshi and Haimaru have a chance to let go.

For four or five days in a row, he could only quietly catch mice at night to earn points—and even this income was getting less and less. There were only so many brave mice.

After catching it for a while, the rest of the mice didn't dare to take the bait. 'He can't go on like this!'

Takeshi thought about countermeasures. If he continues to proceed like this, he will become a useless weakling.

Although he can learn a lot in class, it will deepen his understanding of ninjas and ninjutsu. But what is the use of letting a cat learn these stuffs? Can he throw kunai and shuriken with his claws? he decided to do something else today... "Takeshi, today's class is a practical training class. Do you want to go with me?" In the morning, Rin did not force him to take her to school.

When he woke up this morning, the kitten looked even more depressed, as if he hadn't had a good rest, and today was a practical class, so it would be bad to take him if he was not in good condition, so she asked this question.

When he heard it was a practical lesson, the little black cat immediately became excited. In actual combat, wouldn't it be possible to fight! He got up vigorously, shook his head to show that he was okay, and swished his tail more cheerfully than anyone else - this was an unconscious movement due to his happy mood.

"Rin, wait for me~"

"Obito?" Rin and Takeshi turned back at the same time. When they saw Obito, one person and the other cat had different expressions.

Rin was just a little surprised, but Takeshi's hair all over his body stood up.

Obito was wearing green tights, and his running movements were very similar to Maito Guy's. Although he didn't have his watermelon hairstyle, his outfit today immediately reminded him of that youthful and hot-blooded boy.

'Did the nightmare become reality one day? Horrible.'

"Obito, why are you dressed like this?" Rin didn't know why. Seeing Takeshi's frightened look, she could only ask while comforting him.

"Oh, this is the training wear that former classmate Guy gave me. I wore it a few days ago for training and combat. It is really comfortable. I brought it over for today's practical class." Obito looked confident, as if he had put it on himself. Like It's not just green tights, but a bronze divine garment.

It's over. This guy's mind has become enlightened, and there is no way he can be saved.

Takeshi unconsciously moved a little further away from Obito, and Obito was still unaware, talking about the benefits of this sportswear to himself, but it was obvious that not only Takeshi could not appreciate the "advantages" he mentioned, but also Rin, who was always kind and tolerant.

It's also a bit unacceptable. She didn't feel anything wrong when it was worn by Guy, but she always felt something was wrong when seeing Obito wear it.

"By the way, Guy-san said that if you need something, you can ask him. I'm free. He didn't say anything about not lending it to others. So I thought I'll just wear it today." Obito said with a smile, but Takeshi's heart was filled with unease.

"Well, I'll just wear it today. I'll just wear it today. I'll just wear it today." Obito repeated the same words over and over.
