At noon, Guy finally stopped training, while Takeshi lay limp on his shoulder, as if he had been electrocuted.
The only good thing was that he had earned over 700 points - around 350 points were the result of well-placed slap, another 250 points were the reward for Kakashi's prank, and the remaining 100 points were for the "fighting an elite genin" achievement reward.
Compared to the more than 700 points, running with Guy seemed like a walk in the park, especially considering that it was almost entirely Guy running with Takeshi on his back in the end.
Takeshi didn't dare call himself geography expert of Konoha, but it was more than enough to get him home and to the Ninja Academy.
With over 1,400 points in hand, Takeshi was just shy of half the chance to get a Needle Jizo... But the lottery was also very tempting, offering an extra bonus for ten consecutive draws!
He lay on Guy's shoulder, contemplating the internal battle of epic proportions. A multitude of prizes suddenly appeared in his mind, and he unconsciously thought of the lottery from his past life in Loot boxes.
Same routine. Of course, getting couple bronze or silvers would be the worst outcome. But if the system were to give repeatedly give garbage, that would be a total rip-off.
Forget it, let it be, he couldn't afford it. When he became rich in the future, he would give it a try. Now, everything was mainly focused on buying Needle Jizo.
Needle Jizo integrated offense and defense. After buying it, he wouldn't be afraid of physical beatings.
'My future looks promising!' Takeshi thought happily to himself.
"Speaking of which, are you a ninja cat? Most cats can't withstand such high-intensity exercise. It's a shame that I already have a Summon animal, otherwise I really want to be your partner." Guy chatted as he ran, but he was panting heavily.
It was evident that, at a young age, his body was far superior to that of his peers. No wonder he could graduate from the Ninja Academy just being reliant on three basic jutsus and taijutsu at the age of seven - this era was different from the Naruto era that Takeshi was familiar with.
After the Second Ninja World War, the entire ninja world was far from peaceful. Therefore, if you wanted to graduate, you not only needed strength, but also a lot of courage.
"Meow~" Takeshi replied weakly.
"You're looking forward to it, right?" Guy definitely couldn't understand him. With his brain, it was obviously impossible to understand animal language, so it was like talk between chicken and monkey.
Takeshi was too lazy to argue with him. Talking to this guy was a waste of time. He would scold him one day when he bought the human language skill.
Yes, it would be best to bring a few helpers with him when the time came. He squatted on Guy's shoulder and looked around.
After noticing that they were almost at the Ninja Academy, he quickly patted Guy on the shoulder, and then jumped off with a "Whoosh~"
Of course, Guy could catch up, but there was no need. He wasn't really a bad person. He had only caught Takeshi earlier to get back at him for that slap, but later on, he was just curious. But Nohara Rin...
"It's so familiar. I feel like I've heard this name somewhere before. Is she my former classmate?" Guy said to himself. Although he felt that the cat's owner was his former classmate, he had no recollection of the girl's appearance.
After all, this guy is a workout fanatic and only had eyes for Kakashi when he was in the Academy. After Kakashi graduated, all he had in mind was graduation.
The little blue beast of konoha continued running in place, watching Takeshi jump up the wall and leap to the second floor before continuing to run out.
When Takeshi reached the railing on the second floor, he turned back and waved his front paws as a silent farewell.
His arrival didn't alarm many people, but Asuma, who was sitting in the last row, was obviously not among them. He was waiting for Takeshi, but when he squinted, he saw a black cat coming up from behind.
"The evil cat is here again!" Asuma's face changed dramatically, and he immediately sat upright as a reflex. But when he looked in front of him, he felt slightly disappointed and slumped down again.
Alas~ Kurenai is no longer in the row in front of him, though he is still afraid that this little kitten will trick him.
Let it go. Takeshi didn't intend to tease him again at first time. After all, Asuma had a hard time handling the situation yesterday. Today, he was going to try a different partner, but when he saw Asuma being calm, he became dissatisfied, it was like an itch he couldn't scratch.
TakeshiI sneaked into the classroom and took a look... Hahaha, that's it. Kurenai was sitting with Rin, and as a top student, Rin sat in the front row all year round.
Therefore, Asuma and his love were quite far away from each other. Though Rin and Kurenai seem to be getting along well.
Poor lad Asuma! While, it turns out that in the manga, Kurenai and Rin don't seem to have such a strong relationship. It seems that the first change in the world of Naruto has come... It's Asuma's suffering.
Takeshi shed a drop of crocodile tears, and then carefully squeezed through the gap between the tables. Sneaking into the front row is not a small task.
Fortunately, his cat's body was soft and flexible, though it is not as agile as adult cat for now, so he can squeeze through any gap that is not too narrow.
But when he squeezed to the front, it noticed a person. A little boy wearing sunglasses. He looked quite shady, acting like he's paying attention to the blackboard, but if he were really paying attention to the lecture, why is he wearing sunglasses? Maybe he's trying to hide his glances by staring at someone or something he shouldn't ?
Takeshi complained silently, and then quietly walked to his feet. From the bottom, it looked like... Sure enough, this guy was looking at the two beauties in front of him.
This perverted idiot! Takeshi squatted and stared for a few seconds, then gently patted his leg with his paw.
"Ah?" Ebisu immediately blushed and became serious, and looked away, pretending to look at the sensei seriously. But then he realized something was wrong.
'I am wearing sunglasses, who can see where I am looking? Moreover, I felt someone poke me...' Ebisu lowered his head and saw a black cat squatting at his feet, staring at him with two red eyes. He almost jumped in fright. Although it's not that exaggerated, it still created a lot of noise in the panic in the silent atmosphere of the class.
"Ebisu, do you want to answer this question on behalf of me?" Shiranui Sensei smiled on the stage.
"Ah? Yes, sensei." Ebisu was stunned for a second, then stood up and started to answer the question - if he didn't answer, wouldn't it mean that he didn't listen carefully? His persona as hardworking student cannot be destroyed!
When Takeshi saw the newly gained more than one hundred points, he licked his paws with satisfaction. Although the amount is not large, it will eventually add more with more small amounts.
Yesterday he only noticed Asuma, but today he saw that there are many targets in this class. In addition to Asuma, there are Ebisu, Shiranui Genma, and the famous Konoha gatekeeper duo.
This is my holy land of points! Aren't Asuma and Ebisu so generous to give me so much points at minimal risk? 'Why did I think about provoking someone like Kakashi this morning? I definitely didn't have any plans in mind when I went out, so I was dazzled by the tempting points.'
Takeshi took a look and went towards the toothpick man. This child has been holding toothpicks in his mouth since he was a child, but he didn't dare to hold it in front of Shiranui Sensei. The toothpick was played in his hand instead of in his mouth.
Genma was listening to the class very seriously, because the Sensei in front of him was his uncle. This gives Takeshi a good opportunity to make a move. He walked over carefully, only to find that he couldn't reach up, and he wasn't even close in height. This is quite embarrassing.
If he jumped up, he will definitely be discovered. Takeshi fell into deep thought. In fact, there are no solutions in the system store, such as the transformation jutsu that requires 1,500 points.
'As long as I can use the transformation jutsu, I could solve this problem. However, What I really need right now at the moment is to use Needle Jizo' - that jutsu can be used both offensively and defensively, and the price is only 3,000 points. It can be called a magical life-saving skill for beasts.
Compared with that jutsu, the transformation jutsu can be placed in the second rank for jutsu's to buy. The Rasengan is very powerful, but in the face of the pressure of reality, the little cat shed tears and placed it in the third rank.
Five thousand points, how big of an amount is that? And what would I do to be able to afford it? Besides, he may not have enough chakra to use it even if he bought it.
This is another practical problem. Rin still has one or two months to go before she graduates. He should be able to accumulate some points, and then it won't be too late to consider whether to buy the Rasengan.
