"Minato? Well, these must be your students."
A big brown dog appeared from a distance, followed by a figure that quickly approached with great speed using Shunshin Jutsu, and landed on a branch not far away.
He is a member of the Inuzuka clan. Judging from his partner and appearance, he should be Inuzuka Gaku who appeared in Naruto anime, and behind him there are ninjas from the Hyuga and Aburame clans, all of them are experienced reconnaissance and tracking ninjas.
"I didn't expect it to be you, Gaku-san. I came to support on the Sunagakure front, on the orders of the Sandaime-sama." Minato took out the scroll written by the Third Hokage, which recorded the mission information, and then threw it towards Gaku Inuzuka.
Gaku caught the scroll and carefully checked it, and after confirming that the scroll was written made by the Third Hokage, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned the scroll to Minato, then waved and said, "Let's go, we are having dinner, will you eat together?"
"No, thank you, I have something to discuss with Inoichi." Minato did not forget the corpse still sealed in the scroll. The sooner the corpse's memories are analyzed, the better.
If they delay it too much, Yamanaka jutsu's might not work on it.
As Jonin's communicated, and Kakashi and the teammates did not dare to create any nuisance, except for one guy, to be specific one cat.
From the side, there was a sudden barking, followed by an angry roar, and then turned into bursts of wailing...
"What's going on?"Gaku turned his head and saw his brave partner wrestling with a large cat.
No! To be precise, it was not a scuffle, but his dog was being pushed around and beaten, and he was wailing and running at the same time.
'When did he turn into such a coward , not at all as brave and ferocious as he was on the battlefield in the past. What the hell is going on? My own ninja dog can stand up to Sunagakure's elite Chunin alone, but can't beat a mere ninja cat?'
"Uh... well..." Minato was a little embarrassed, as he awkwardly chuckled.
'Did this cat have a grudge against the ninja dog? Why would he challenge this dog and then beat it up? This is so weird.'
"I'm sorry, Jonin-sama, I'll take him away right immediately." Rin bowed skillfully and apologized from her months of practice, she has gotten quite proficient in this, then ran to the side and started forming hand seals. A few seconds later, her hair grew and wrapped around Takeshi's paws.
When the big brown dog saw an opportunity, he immediately fought back, but... The next second, Takeshi opened his mouth.
Foosh! A jet of water spurted out, sending the big brown dog flying.
Everyone was worried at first, but seeing the condition of the big brown dog, everyone knew that Takeshi had held back - Takeshi could have enhanced the water release jutsu using wind release, and this time it was just a pure Water Release jutsu.
"..."
'I shouldn't have done that!' Inuzuka dog covered his face with his paw, admitting defeat as he couldn't beat this cat. 'When this cat's owner tried to stop him, I though I had a chance, but I got beaten more badly. Now not only have my embarrassed myself but I also embarrassed my owner. This was a shameful display!'
The big brown dog drooped his head and looked quite embarrassed. He wanted to return to his owner, but when he saw the Takeshi, he stopped hesitantly.
Takeshi returned to his original size and returned next to Rin. At the same time, he secretly called up the system panel and took a look. It's increased by more than 400, Wonderful! 'Just abit more of hard work, I will soon have 9,000 points.'
Actually the ninja dog was kind and polite and they met. So Takeshi had to provoke and goad him, which the dog felt confident in doing due to his bigger size. Then got beaten himself when Takeshi grew larger in size and used the size advantage.
The Multi-size Jutsu is really useful,Takeshi was very happy. It was indeed a very wise choice to give priority to the Multi-size Jutsu.
Of course, it was also these silly dogs who had evil thoughts in their hearts of bullying this small cat. If he didn't fight back, would he have a chance to collect points? He didn't think so.
Take Minato for example. This guy has good emotional control. If he wants to collect points from Minato, he would need to do minor mischievous things between him and Kushina. It's nearly impossible to do anything to him himself.
The goal is not just to collect points, but also to collect points while remaining alive. It's easy to collect alot of points from Minato by interrupting his "private time" with Kushina but this poor kitten wouldn't be left alive once Kushina caught him.
It's a pity that the big bones from the meal they ate in Land of Grass was thrown away, if he had that he could have used that as a stick to train this cowardly dog.
Well, if there is something like this in the gacha pool, he could consider drawing again. With more than 8,000 huge points in hand, Takeshi has grown to an unprecedented level, and does not take expenditure of thousand points seriously at all.
It feels amazing to be rich!
"Let's go find Inoichi quickly. My task is time sensitive." When Minato saw that the matter was resolved, he could only change the subject awkwardly and abruptly.
Fortunately, Gaku also wanted distraction, as it was embarrassing for him too.
There were no opportunities to take action after that, but he don't have to be physically active to collect points. Sometimes he could get some points just by moving his eyes.
Of course, he won't be getting many points by simply intimidating others with his eyes, but it's still better than nothing.
The big brown dog is having a hard time. He could feel a cold gaze staring at him from behind. This gaze came from a bullying ninja cat.
'This cat is quite scary, not only did he beat me up, but also sprayed me away with Water Release jutsu... The most uncomfortable moment of my life.'
In the end, he hid in the distance in despair and didn't dare to approach. He had never suffered this kind of grievance. He couldn't loose control of emotions and attack that cat again to release all his internal turmoil, as his owner is here...
"Don't be distracted, we have to return to the camp quickly."
"Woof!" He barked, and then ran forward at full speed with heartache.
Takeshi's eyes narrowed slightly. This dog must have been thinking about something bad for him just now.
'That must be it!' It's not that he has telepathy, but that the system panel suddenly jumped up to more than a hundred points.
It had been rising by more than ten points before, so there must be something different that caused this sudden change.
'The stupid dog must be punished further.' He secretly noted that this meant that this dog was different from the other foolish dogs in the Inuzuka family, he has ambition and pride, it seems that this dog won't fall after a single battle. There will still be room for extracting more points in the future.
But not at this moment. While Takeshi is thinking. Minato is currently busy with important matters, and if he takes action rashly, he may really be punished.
He followed behind with the team, but Minato and Gaku were quite fast, so they gradually gained some distance away from the others.
The big brown dog turned around and stuck out his tongue proudly at Takeshi.
'What? Did this just happen to me?' The Takeshi was stunned for a moment, then quickly increased his speed.
Soon, he ran in front of the big brown dog, and then jumped onto Minato's shoulder.
Minato just glanced at him and did not push him away. However, his speed was slightly faster than Inuzuka Gaku, so he was in front of the big dog in a short time.
As the big brown dog ran, he struggled to look up at his owner, and then at his own size... Even if he wasn't quite smart, he could still understand that Gaku wouldn't be able to hold him up on his shoulders like Minato.
This has nothing to do with friendship or are, it is simply because he is too big.
'Damn it, I lost again.' He felt sad and gave up on thoughts of comparing himself with Takeshi for the time being.
'Abit more points. Although it's not much, it's still worth half a pack for special cat food. Tsk... Speaking of which, Haimaru also seems to have his moments of pride from time to time, so these are the kinds of ninja dogs which make good points farm.'
Takeshi's thoughts jumped around quite abit. From points to big brown dog to Haimaru to points farming. However, with Minato around, he didn't need to run hard, and the energy saved didn't seem to serve any real purpose, so it was only natural to get lost in random thoughts
Soon, Minato arrived at the base camp.
