Chapter 11: Green clothes on Obito, there is no help

The next day, a row of rats was displayed on the side of the street.

Of course, Qian Ming did this on purpose, if he only went and caught mice and didn't publicising it, wouldn't the hunt just be a night walk as a cat?

Besides, the family of rats should be neat and tidy where he placed them.

The people who got up during the early morning were startled, and they all came to observe the aftermath of the rat massacre.

Although it had been a bit shocking to see this kind of lineup, people from the shinobi world especially people who have been alive through the waring era have seen a lot of corpses, but these villages were not so frightened from the bloodshed but instead praised in unison.

Although there are quite a few cats that can catch mice, it was quite rare for a cat, let alone a kitten like Qian Ming to be able to catch a bunch of mice in one night.

So in the morning, Megumi Nohara happily added a bonus treat to Qian Ming's breakfast meal.

Of course though, Nohara Rin went to secretly instruct Qian Ming—"You can catch mice, but you mustn't eat mice unless necessary."

Qian Ming was still a young kitten so his body's resistance to sickness was not strong. And most mice live in filthy places, and he can easily get sick if he were to eat an infected rat.

Though Qian Ming didn't need to be told twice, after all he doesn't eat mice.

If it wasn't for burst of insomnia and the prospect of earning points, he wouldn't have even bother to catch these second-hand goods.

Fortunately, Qian Ming earned more than 200 points by catching more than a dozen mice that night. In addition, he gained more than 300 points just by displaying his kills outside the door for everyone to see. Lets see how much more he can earn after exchanging his current points for the Needle Jizō jutsu.

In order to not to be toyed with by Gai in the future, Qian Ming had fought hard.

He had to try the Needle Jizō jutsu at least once.

However, Qian Ming has never fought against any type of weapon like Kunai, so the specific skill level and power of his new jutsu is still difficult for him to define.

After all, the power of all ninjutsu is somewhat related to chakra, and as a growing kitten Qian Ming still has too little chakra to make a difference.

Chakra is extracted and fused from physical energy and spiritual energy in a special ratio. And although Qian Ming's mental energy is far stronger than that of ordinary ninja beasts.

The shortcoming is his physical body. But there are many ways to go around this short coming within the system's shop.

For example, eating special cat food all year round.

In addition, there is a portion of special cat food for Ninja cats worth 300 points.

The effect reads "It is very beneficial for Ninja cats to take it all year round". In short, they are consumables that should be eaten all year round.

Qian Ming happened to have more than 300 points on hand, so he quietly exchanged for some during the morning before his breakfast came.

The taste was not that bad.

However, after eating his one serving, he felt no ground-breaking change happen to his body.

Qian Ming doesn't know if the influence from this special cat food is too subtle or if it is currently useless for his kitten body.

Anyway, after eating Qianming, could only have a feeling that three hundred points were pointless becoming lost.

Though that maybe just a misunderstanding...

He comforted himself in his heart, then turned his grief and anger into appetite, and ate an extra-sized version of breakfast. Ninja beast's breakfast was not simple, it must be matched with meat and vegetables with a balance for the nutrition.

The breakfast the Nohara family gave him was crafted using experience that the family gained by asking for advice from the Inuzuka clan.

Qian Ming ate so much, but he was not supported at all.

Sure enough, if you are fat, no meal is innocent.

Since Nohara Rin got the teacher's permission to allow her kitten in class to build a bond, she took Qian Ming with her to school after breakfast.

On the way, he was put down on to the ground and made to walk on his own, so as not to be carried for a long time and grow too fat, Qian Ming after all did not walk around to much before, and after learning from Kakashi's wave, he had decided to develop within this newbie village first.

Wait until you are not afraid of being pitted, and then consider developing into the other "dungeons" of Konoha.

Otherwise, I am but a sweet little kitten, I am afraid that these black-bellied ninjas will be pitted until there is not a single cat hair left.

But class life was so boring for the feline.

Being takin into the class with Rin was different from going by himself. After all he now has to stay on her desk and he would be noticed if he made any movement.

The key was to not to leave early.

But for Qian Ming this was very uncomfortable. He ended up laying on Rin's desk with a dull expression throughout this difficult day.

Fortunately, Obito didn't seem to be kaizen(Changed{Normally positive}), or at the very least his words and behaviours were normal, which made Qian Ming relieved, but on the other hand, he noticed that today Haimaru(Hana Inuzuka's dog) was more hostile to him.

During class, Qian Ming could feel that the dog was staring at him during the whole time—was this is the intuition of a beast.

Or due to his improved chakra network he gained from learning the Needle Jizō Jutsu?

Qian Ming not quite sure, but what is certain is...

'I will fight with you sooner or later. '

Once they left the classroom, the cat and the dog looked at each other, and the atmosphere was as tense as if a decisive battle was about to take place on the top of a Forbidden City over fate and destiny.

However, in the next second, one of them was lifted by Inuzuka Hana, and the other was yoinked by Nohara Rin into her arms, and they were moved downstairs.

Parting ways for now.

Each of their fighting spirit were blazing, so Qian Ming couldn't help himself but look forward to the future showdown.

Qian Ming then sighed inwardly, if only that stupid dog dared to make a move, then Qian Ming would have an excuse to tell the other party the power of improve Acupuncture.

Provoking a ninja dog should earn Qian Ming lot of points.

But this event although destined might never have a chance to happen.

Nohara Rin and Inuzuka Hana both understand the truth that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. So they control the two ninja beasts to stop bloodshed.

As long as they go to the classroom, they will stay at a distance of each other, so that Qian Ming and Haimaru have no chance to battle each other.

For four or five days in a row, Qian Ming could only earn points by quietly catching mice at night—but this income became less and less.

After all the occasional brave mouse was very limited. And after most of them were caught in a very short time within each other, the rest of the mice did not dare leave their nests.

'I can't go on like this! '

Qian Ming pondered countermeasures.

If his point mine were to keep learning like this, then he would become doomed.

Although he can learn a lot in class, his understanding of ninja and ninjutsu has deepened a lot.

What is the use of letting a cat learn anything else there?

Can any cats you know throw kunai or shuriken with their paws?

Today he decided to make his move...

"Qian Ming, today's class is a practical training class, do you want to go together?"

In the morning, Nohara Rin did not force Qian Ming to go to school with her.

As when Rin woke up this morning, her little kitten looked even more sluggish and seemed to have had no rest, and as today is a combat class. It would not be good for the tired kitten to follow her into a practical lesson if he is not in good condition.

That is why she asked this question.

But as soon as he heard that today was an actual combat lesson, the little black cat immediately became excited.

During an actual combat, wouldn't it be possible for Qian Ming to fight?

He jumped up vigorously, nodding his head to indicate that he was fine, and wagged his tail more cheerfully than anyone else had ever seen—though this was an unconscious action that had occurred due to his happy mood.

'What?'

Rin Nohara, didn't quite understand, she was very puzzled as to why her little kitten was so happy to hear that today was going to be a practical class they were suddenly very happy.

Not long after leaving for the academy...

"Hey Rin, wait for me~"

"Obito?"

Nohara Rin and Qian Ming turned around at the same time, and saw Obito, the expressions of the person and the cat were different.

Rin was just a little surprised, but Qian Ming's hair exploded outwards.

Obito was wearing green tights, and his running movements were very similar to that of Might Gai.

Although he hadn't shave his hair into a watermelon cut, today's outfit immediately reminded Qian Ming of that self-righteous hot-blooded boy.

Could his nightmare from that day become reality?

How horrible.

"Obito, are you dressed like this?"

Nohara Rin didn't know why. But seeing Qian Ming's scared appearance, she could only ask questions while trying to comfort him.

"Oh, this is the sportswear that Gai gave me. I only wear it for sports and combat since few days ago. It's very comfortable. So I brought it to wear for the actual combat class today."

Obito looked confident as if he was not wearing the green tights, but a bronze holy garment.

'I'm finished. This fellow's thinking has been transformed, and there is no way to save him from the power of youth.'

Qian Ming unconsciously moved further away from Obito, though Obito was unaware of this movement, and continued talking about the benefits of his sportswear to Rin. Though Qian Ming couldn't understand the "advantages" that came from Obito's mouth, Nohara Rin, who has always been kind and tolerant somewhat accepted this with discomfort.

After all she didn't feel anything about Gai wearing this, but once Obito did it felt as though something wasn't quite right.

"By the way, Gai said that if you were to need it..."

"No, thank you offering, but I don't need it!"
