Finding that the big orange cat was curled up in pain and didn't even have the desire to attack, Chikage was directly amused.
Is this guy all bark and no bite?
No, this should just be a coincidence.
It happened to kick its chin, causing it to bite its own tongue and be in so much pain that it lost the desire to fight.
This is no different from a man losing his combat ability directly when being attacked to the balls.
The difference is that the big orange cat bit its own tongue, and Chikage just kicked its chin.
"Chikage, are you okay?"
Hearing the battle noise and the roar of the big orange cat, Mikoto hurriedly rushed over.
When she arrived at the scene, Chikage had already knocked the big orange cat unconscious and tied it up with a rope.
"It's a small problem."
Standing beside the big orange cat that was even taller than herself when lying down, patting the back of the big orange cat, Chikage said,
"This guy should be the culprit who attacked the livestock in the pasture. Our mission reward can be increased a bit, and this guy can also be sold for a lot of money when we take it back."
Is this over?
Mikoto couldn't help but laugh and cry after learning about the battle process.
She also wanted to temper her combat awareness and accumulate some experience.
But Chikage finished it in just a few strokes.
The battle process was simple and crude, kicking the chin, and while the big orange cat was in so much pain that it doubted its tiger life, knocking it unconscious directly.
Then tying it up was done and she didn't help at all and just laid down.
"Sister Mikoto, you don't seem to have a proper summon beast yet. Why don't you contract this guy?"
The strength of the big orange cat is quite good, and just Mikoto hasn't contracted a summon beast.
If she is willing, it would also be good to sign a summoning contract with the big orange cat.
"Forget it."
Looking at the big orange cat that was as big as a small house, Mikoto shook her head slightly and refused,
"I don't need it. People of the Uchiha clan are still more suitable to sign a summoning contract with the ninja cats. It will be a lot more convenient to buy weapons and ninja tools from them in the future."
Signing a summoning contract with the ninja cat clan is a tradition of the Uchiha clan.
Most of the Uchiha ninjas with strong strength will sign contracts with the ninja cat clan.
And the ninja cat clan will also provide various ninja tools and scrolls for the Uchiha.
As long as you spend money, you can buy what you want from them, and the price is also much cheaper than that sold in the village weapon store.
"Then bring it back to Konoha and sell it."
A D-rank mission, even a D-rank mission with increased reward, is at most tens of thousands of ryos in reward.
If this big guy is pulled to Konoha and sold, it can at least sell for 300,000 ryos.
Summon beasts and good chakra weapons have always had high prices.
Chikage and Mikoto dragged the big orange cat that was tied up in all directions back to Konoha. Along the way, many people saw Chikage dragging the big orange cat and were scared to hide by the roadside.
"This tiger is so big."
"These two children are ninjas in the village, so amazing. They can catch such a big tiger."
"Are they going to catch it back and eat it?"
"Stupid. Such a creature can be sold as a summon beast, and the price is very expensive. What else can you do besides eating?"
Passers-by discussed one after another, making Mikoto a little embarrassed.
The battle was over before she arrived, and as a result, dragging the orange cat back to Konoha also became Chikage's job.
This made Mikoto feel that she was useless and could hardly help at all.
"Hello, my name is Sanying Luo. I wonder if you are planning to transport this summon beast to Konoha for sale?"
The popularity of summon beasts far exceeded Chikage's imagination.
Well, before they even returned to the village, a ninja who returned from a mission on the road saw the big orange cat and his eyes lit up, and hurriedly came forward to ask.
Although I haven't gone to understand it, haven't I seen a pig run even if I haven't eaten pork?
Therefore, the price of the big orange cat in Chikage's heart is three hundred thousand taels. If it is less than this number, don't talk about it.
"Three hundred thousand?"
Sanying Luo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly:
"Well...... Can it be a little cheaper? I have purchased some ninja tools recently, so......"
"I'm very sorry, this is the price. If you can't accept it, then I can only drag it to the village to sell."
Good contract beasts don't lack buyers. Most of the ninjas who love contract beasts the most belong to civilian ninjas with average talent and low upper limit of strength.
For these ninjas, having a contract beast with good strength can enhance their combat power a lot.
It can also save lives at critical moments.
Letting the contract beast go to die and oneself run for life, many ninjas like to do such things.
"I'll buy it!"
Seeing that Chikage was about to pull the big orange cat away and didn't mean to bargain at all, Sanying Luo hurriedly stopped him.
"I'll buy it for three hundred thousand taels, but you have to give me some time. I just came back from a mission and need time to raise the money."
"If it delays your time, I can help transport this guy back to the village."
Ninjas are a high-risk profession and also a profession that makes money quickly.
As long as you are not lazy and save some expenses, basically you won't live too poorly.
After all, even an ordinary C-level mission can have a reward of several thousand taels or even tens of thousands of taels.
However, ninjas are also a profession that burns money.
This leads to the fact that many ninjas earn a lot, but also spend a lot, and often don't have much money saved in their hands.
Usually, the balance in a ninja's bankbook can be linked to their own color strength. The stronger the ninja, the more money they earn.
Except for someone like Tsunade.
Chikage thinks that almost no one in the entire ninja world can earn more money than Tsunade, but is poorer than her as a jonin.
"That's great."
Someone is willing to help, and Chikage is happy to accept.
He pulled the big orange cat all the way from the ranch, which took a lot of effort.
"Young brother, you rest first, and leave the rest to me."
Sanying Luo is not a mother-in-law either, and just drags the rope and leaves.
Although he really wants to sign the contract of domination directly with the big orange cat, but he hasn't given the money yet, and Chikage won't allow him to do so.
Otherwise, the effort of bringing the big orange cat back to Konoha can be saved.
The closer to Konoha, the more people come and go on the road. Many ninjas came forward to ask when they saw the big orange cat, but they were all blocked back by Sanying Luo.
I have taken a fancy to this contract beast, and the price has been negotiated. You go wherever it is cool and stay there, and don't think about this thing.
Back in Konoha, one hand delivers the money and the other hand delivers the goods.
While other classmates were still waiting for the village to arrange, Chikage and Miko had already earned hundreds of thousands of pocket money each.
