"Let's wait a little longer. The Superior here haven't given the order yet..."
"Sensei said that if he doesn't come today, we will leave for the battlefront. loser, are you afraid?" Kakashi glanced coldly and said in a merciless tone of voice.
However, Rin and Takeshi looked up at the sky, and didn't know what to say for a moment - it was still dark at the moment, around four or five in the morning at most.
Is this the next day? Why did you start counting from early in the morning! Takeshi, who had not slept well, was very angry. He stared at Kakashi for a few seconds, and then he couldn't help but pounced on him and tried to tear his hair out.
"Kakashi, it's too early, and we don't have a password. We might have been attacked as spies along the way." Rin didn't agree either.
"You can ask. It's up to you whether you come or not. Anyway, I'm going there." Kakashi put the cat aside, put on the equipment he had already packed and got up to set off. Rin and Obito looked at each other and had no choice but to follow.
"Follow me." Takeshi sniffed and followed the scent of Aburame Shima, and soon found Aburame Shima in the direction where everyone came from. To be precise, the other party also noticed them, so they took the initiative to come over and ask about the situation. So, Kakashi told the purpose. Aburame Shima's shocked expression after hearing this could not be concealed even by the stealth coat of the Aburame clan.
After two seconds, he realized that the other party was Kakashi, oh, that's okay. Kakashi's reputation is very popular at the Chunin level. Stubborn, self-righteous and unreasonable.
Although he is very strong, to be honest, no one wants to cooperate with him, because his teammates often get into trouble or even die because of some of his actions.
He looked at the other two people, and finally looked down at the black cat. Although he didn't know black Cat's strength, the feedback given by Kikaichu was that he was not easy to defeat and quite dangerous.
Aburame Shima hesitated for a moment, and finally said in unsure tone: "Wait a moment, I'll go ask for instructions."
"Ask for instructions?" Kakashi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately chased after him. Takeshi and the others could only continue to follow.
After going back and forth, Aburame Shima returned here: "I asked the captain for instructions, and I will be responsible for taking you to the Sunagakure front line."
"Ah, how can this be so embarrassing, you'll be coming along just to escort us..." Rin was stunned for a moment.
"It doesn't matter. I also have another mission. Let's go." After finishing speaking, Aburame Shima jumped out. However, halfway in the air, a black shadow suddenly flew over from above.
"Ahhhh!"
"Takeshi, you're causing trouble again!"
Meow~ How can you call it troublesome? I am getting so much points. Takeshi squatted on the treasure ninja's shoulder, and the eyes on the black cat's face rolled around.
"No, you don't have to be in front, my bugs can detect..."
The bugs in Aburame Shima's body were stirring. The ninja cat squatted on his shoulder, and the insects did not dare to come out.
"Sorry."
Kakashi jumped up to him, grabbed the little black cat by force, and then ran away with it. The front lines are not safe. On the way, they met many vigilant ninjas. If it weren't for Aburame Shima, Takeshi and Kakashi might have been stopped by ANBU people just halfway through.
Arriving at the front line of Sunagakure, everyone saw a tragic scene - just after entering the camp, there were many injured and corpses lying densely, some were receiving treatment, and some had completed the treatment. Not far away, Minato was chatting with a black-haired man who was receiving treatment.
Orochimaru?
When Takeshi saw the guy, he immediately shrank back. When he noticed Orochimaru, Orochimaru also noticed the prying eyes of someone, but that someone was just a ninja cat, and the few people beside him... the genius boy Kakashi, and two Genin. He frowned slightly and said, "Minato, are those your disciples?"
Minato turned his head and glanced, then smiled and said, "Yes, Orochimaru-sama."
"The Genin team just graduated and skipped D-ranks, hahaha, it seems Minato you are quite confident in them."
Orochimaru raised a smile on his lips.
"Yes, but their strength is very good. After all considerations, they can skip those tasks. This was also approved by the Third Hokage."
Minato explained immediately. Even during the war, the newly graduated team had to do ordinary tasks for at least a month, and Obito and the others really didn't follow the procedures.
However, with Kakashi as an elite Chunin, and Obito and Rin are also quite strong, they naturally handle special matters. This is not uncommon.
Orochimaru glanced at it, then licked his lips and said, "Kakashi Hatake, a medical ninja with a ninja cat, and the child of the Uchiha family... no wonder you are confident in bringing them to the battlefield."
"Huh? Actually it's not what you think."
Minato scratched his head in embarrassment. His team knew their own issues, and normally this team was pretty good, but there was a problem child, Kakashi, who, to be honest, was a little uneasy.
"There's no problem with me, go ahead meet your team."
"Yes!"
Minato bowed his head in salute, then stepped back and left the shed. Takeshi hid in a position where Orochimaru couldn't see him and breathed a long sigh of relief. Aburame Shima couldn't help laughing and said:
"Are you afraid too? But don't think that Orochimaru-sama seems difficult to get along with. In fact, He is a very good shinobi."
"Meow~"
The little black cat only meowed once, but the meaning was needless to say - I don't believe it!
"Hahaha."
Aburame Shima chuckled softly, and then he was caught off guard when he saw the black cat covered in "exploding fur". This "exploding hair" is not the kind of panic state of ordinary cats, but the real hair stands on end, like steel needles, and the tail is like a small mace, and it is swung over.
A ball of parasitic bugs appeared in his hand to resist, so... several parasitic bugs died in one breath, which made Shima Aburame feel heartbroken, and at the same time, he contributed more than 400 points to the little black cat.
This is the most points it has received since the first meeting. Counting the previous income, Still eight hundred short of two thousand
"You see, I like to cause trouble, play, and scare people, but I'm really a good cat."
After Takeshi finished speaking, he opened his mouth wide and yawned.
"..."
Everyone was speechless and didn't know what to say. At this time, Minato broke the silence.
"Aburame-san, thank you for bringing them here. You can go about your business and let me take care of you from now on."
"Yes, Minato-sama."
So, the treasure ninja went to Superior's tent to report. Takeshi he was not angry at all. Instead, he happily squatted down and stroked himself.
Hmm... what if. He cautiously stuck his head out and looked at Orochimaru in the shed in the distance. If he wanted to provoke him... forget it, he couldn't afford to provoke him. Takeshi sighed and stopped this extremely dangerous thought. He could only retreat to find Kakashi and Obito, harassing them with some small moves, trying to get some points from them.
"Actually, the battle here is almost over. Sunagakure's offensive is no longer as fierce as it was at the beginning. They will probably retreat in half a day. But since you are here, I will take you to the front line to take a look."
Go to the front line ? Takeshi's eyes lit up. If he was lucky enough to meet an enemy and torture him...hehehe!
