Chereads / Naruto: Paws and Whiskers / Chapter 56 - Chapter 56

Chapter 56 - Chapter 56

"Meow~ Do you want to know why I'm so strong?" Takeshi held his head up proudly.

Nekomata, the two-tailed cat, fell silent, feeling ashamed to ask the question. As the boss of this place, he couldn't help but be curious about Takeshi's origin, despite being less than a year old.

"It's not that my bloodline is superior to yours, but I know how to make a special kind of cat food," Takeshi chuckled, licking his paw.

Nekomata, slightly annoyed, endured the embarrassment and asked, "What cat food?"

"Wait a minute." The little black cat pretended to use his Summon skills, mobilizing his chakra and pressing it on the ground.

A bag of cat food appeared under his paw. This ordinary-looking bag contained special cat food, which could turn ordinary cats into ninja cats if eaten for a long time.

However, Nekomata was a strong ninja cat, and eating this food would be of little use to him. It only quickly restored physical strength and part of his chakra.

Cat food... Nekomata raised his eyes, extremely suspicious. What kind of cat food was this? Was it specially made for cats? He glanced down. 

The packaging looked like a snack bag. Nekomata tore it open with his claws and saw several pieces of food resembling small biscuits.

He looked up at the black cat and then took a suspicious bite. Hmm? This tastes great!

He wanted more, but saw the little black cat grab the bag with his paw and stuff it all into his mouth. In the end, Nekomata only managed a small bite.

"You!" Nekomata exclaimed, infuriated.

"You haven't realized by now? I'm so shameless~" Takeshi ran away after eating, disappearing into the street with a few bounds, leaving the infuriated Nekomata behind.

What kind of trick was this? He pulled out a pack of cat food, gave a bite, then snatched it back and ate everything and ran away!

Nekomata endured his annoyance again and walked slowly towards the Ninja Cat Castle, but as he walked on the road, he unconsciously recalled the smell of the cat food just now.

It was quite delicious! Not only that, but the taste was second to none. After eating that food, the recovery of physical strength and chakra seemed to be a little faster... 

"Could it be that this cat food can really strengthen the body?" Nekomata thought for a moment and immediately returned to Neko Granny's side.

When he arrived at Neko Granny's weapon shop, he saw only Granny and the two ninja cats accompanying her. 

"You're here, how many shurikens do you want this time?"

"No, where's that cat from before?" Nekomata looked around again after entering the door, then tore up the ground with his claws, and said lightly, "Forget it. I'll find him myself." 

After finishing speaking, Nekomata opened the door and left. 

Although the kitten ran away, the scent was still there, and Nekomata could find the location of the little black cat by following the smell. He was originally very confident, but halfway through the tracking, the scent suddenly disappeared....

In Konoha, after Minato came back in a rush with the Flying Thunder God, he hurried to the Hokage Building.

Obito was in a hurry to go home and return the things belonging to the clan leader. He didn't dare to delay outside. Takeshi went home alone. 

On the way, he opened the points panel and took a look. 'More than two thousand? It went up another three to four hundred, hehe... maybe that stupid cat got more and more angry after he went back looking for me yet couldn't find me, and instead contributed points to me.'

Takeshi felt proud. 'I originally planned to leave after the fight, but I suddenly thought of giving the stupid cat a taste of the cat food bought with my system, and I only gave it one bite. This was a good idea. '

At that time, the silly cat gave him five or six hundred, and now he has three or four hundred, which adds up to a lot.

Everything will be fine henceforth as Jiraiya said that if he wants to quickly digest natural energy, the best way is to train, run, and fight.

He just had a fight with the ninja cat, and he has no intention of looking for trouble with anyone else... 

After thinking about it, it is better to go to the orphanage first. Although Kabuto's massaging skills are not as good as Minato's, his service is still quite good, which makes me miss him.

Unfortunately, when he went there to visit, he discovered that Kabuto was not returned home. After asking around, he found out that Kabuto and Yakushi Nono went to Capital City. They are now famous in the pet circle in Capital City and have not been back to Konoha for a while. 

Of course, they didn't forget this orphanage. On the contrary, 90% of the money his matron and Kabuto earned there were sent to the orphanage.

Takeshi knew this because he saw that the furniture and other items in the orphanage were much better this time.

Many talented children are sent to the Academy to study in preparation for becoming ninjas in the future. They were very kind and caring for this orphanage. 

Takeshi quietly walked around in a circle, but the first masseuse didn't come back, so he had no choice but to return home in despair and rest. When he got home, he looked in the mirror.

'My belly seems to be smaller. It seems that my natural energy has been digested a lot. I hope I can digest it soon and then exchange points for a luxurious cat food.' The little black cat twisted his waist to make sure that his belly was smaller, then happily jumped down and returned to its own den to sleep. At this moment... 

"Meow!" A cat meowed, attracting Takeshi's attention forcefully. He moved out and glanced above the wall outside the window. A big white cat had a prideful air just standing there, even prouder than himself.

Didn't he return to Konoha? Takeshi was startled, but then he was convinced that this was Konoha, and if this guy dared to hit him, he would hit back.

When the trouble started, Nekomata, who did not have a residence within Konoha, would definitely be unlucky, and he might end up going to the hospital. He had to take a trip to the Anbu side before he could come back. Thinking this, Takeshi held his head high and walked out.

"Meow?" 

"...", Nekomata was silent. This kid was pretending to be dumb and stupid, pretending to not understand and be confused, but would he be affected by this behavior? He squatted on the wall, wondering what to say for a while.

Takeshi jumped up on the wall, and simply followed the silence. The two cat eyes looked into each other. If both hadn't been male cats, they might have thought that there was some chemistry between them. 

"What's the price of cat food?" Nekomata asked again. 

"It's priceless." Takeshi replied. One hundred points are far from priceless, but he can only make money by raising the price.

This ninja cat is connected with the Uchiha clan, so he has a lot of money in his pockets. 

"Not selling?" Nekomata was annoyed. 'Why did you show off before if you weren't going to sell? It made me think you were going to sell'.

"No, you can go back." Takeshi was originally considering whether to sell one or two copies, but when he saw the points on the panel jumping again, he felt happy and immediately refused. 

"Meow!" Nekomata roared again, seeming to grow in size and fight Takeshi. But at this time, Takeshi pointed to a building.

The huge stone statue is not just a decoration, it is the Hokage monument, and underneath is the Hokage Building.

There are ninjas patrolling the village. Nekomata doesn't believe that he didn't see the Konoha ninjas on the way.

Nekomata's voice got stuck, and then he yelled angrily. After getting rid of his anger, he asked, "You really don't want to sell it?" 

"I'll give you two." Takeshi "summoned" a pack of cat food, then tore it open and threw biscuits over, and the rest was devoured by him in the blink of an eye.

This is not ordinary special cat food but a special food for ninja cats, priced at 300 points per serving.

When Nekomata saw those two pieces of food again, he immediately jumped into the air and ate them into his mouth. He immediately felt the difference in texture - it was not the same one as before. 

"Meow...hey, you only came here to eat!"

??? Nekomata didn't understand, but he felt that this cat couldn't say anything nice, and it was often just scolding or insulting himself.
