Chapter 87: Chapter 87
Kabuto looked at the cat encyclopedia and then at Takeshi, with a bit of scrutiny and excitement in his eyes.
"Meow~ I consider you such a valuable friend but you actually want to dissect me!" Takeshi jumped back instantly.
A child and a cat stared at each other, and then Kabuto sighed softly and explained: "I wasn't looking with those intentions, I was just curious... Let's go, we are almost at the orphanage anyways. Do you want to stay over for one night?"
"No, It would be better for me to go home early." Takeshi refused immediately while staring at Kabuto warily. 'Stay over? I will definitely be dissected by him!'
"Huh... nevermind, with your strength, as long as you don't meet someone on Orochimaru-sama's level, you should be fine." Kabuto carried the cat encyclopedia in his arms and continued walking along the path.
"Oi! don't tempt my fate! Meow!" Takeshi shouted out. 'I just escaped one potential disaster, are you afraid that I won't meet Orochimaru?'
"Sorry about that." Kabuto sighed softly and continued walking along, as Takeshi followed behind him.
The orphanage is right in front, and there is a faint snake smell from Orochimaru around the yard. It seems that Orochimaru has indeed been to the orphanage and stayed here for a while.
He paused for a moment, as his mind couldn't help but think about Orochimaru meeting him the on the route back to Konoha from Capital City...
'What if I meet him again like that, why don't I stay here tonight?' The orphanage has changed a lot. The courtyard are much larger than before. Although the appearance of the building has not changed, yet when he entered the building, he could clearly see that the interior has become much more luxurious.
"Aren't you going to leave?"
"I decided to stay over and go back tomorrow morning. To protect you and other kids." Takeshi replied shamelessly. Safety and well being is not as important as respect. he believed Rin would understand.
At this time, a boy ran out and said happily when he saw Kabuto: "Kabuto-nii, you are back. The aunts are discussing... Hey, who is this cat?"
"A ninja cat, my friend Takeshi." Kabuto said with a smile on his face. He smiled, pointed at the Takeshi, then raised his hand and pointed at the boy and said, "His name is Urushi, he is also child helping along the hospital like me."
"Hello, meow~" Takeshi waved his paw. He could recall Urushi from the anime. Although his appearance is indeed a bit different from that 2D anime, he is still vaguely recognizable.
"This cat can... talk!" Urushi was startled, but after thinking for abit that this was a ninja cat, he accepted it. With ninjas, anything is possible. As he is just an ordinary kid, and Takeshi has no interest in teasing him.
After all, he won't get much points by messing with him, but not to mention it might make him look bad and hurt the kid's feelings. Since he earned a lot of respect from helping the Orphange indirectly by guiding Kabuto, and as Kabuto's status in the Orphange has also increased, so it didn't take long for Takeshi to get his own bedding.
After a while, the children all went to bed. Takeshi was no exception and was driven into the room to sleep. He couldn't fall asleep after trying for awhile, so he sneaked out of the window while others were sleeping.
At first he just wanted to stretch his body, but after turning around casually, he discovered... there were ninjas watching over here. 'Danzo's men?' Takeshi licked his paw, there was no benefit in teasing the children, but the same wouldn't be the case with these Root's ninjas.
He followed the scent, but when he was almost about to sneak up on him, the opponent suddenly looked up. After looking at the Takeshi, the ninja was slightly startled, and then immediately left using a series of ninjutsus like the Substitution Jutsu and the Shushin-no-jutsu, and rushed away immediately.
'So decisive!' Takeshi was startled for a moment, and saw that the benefit was less than thirty points, which showed that the opponent was quite level headed and did not get scared.
Root's ninjas are really something else... He looked back at the orphanage, it seems that Danzo still has his attention on this orphanage, but now Nono had made a lot of money and had no worries about the costs of running the orphanage. Hence, won't be desperate to do Root missions.
After a while, Takeshi doubts the Orphange would even need subsidies and donations from Konoha. Danzo will probably quite distressed, as Nono was good agent. If Danzo knew that this idea came from Takeshi, would he be able to gain a lot of points at once?
'It's a pity that I can't afford to offend him. It's better not to mess with Danzo for the time being.' Takeshi thought about it for a moment, and then returned to the orphanage .
While he still couldn't fall asleep, he happened to look through system store to see if there was anything he needed and could buy. Then, he recalled about what he wanted to buy before, so he looked at requirements for Eight Inner Gates - Gate of Opening.
Before when he saw it, as he didn't meet the requirements and the purchase button was locked out, but now it is different
'Hey, I have met the requirement? The Luxury cat food i ate before seems to have worked! ' Takeshi was slightly surprised.
Natural energy has a great effect on ninja beasts. It can not only increase chakra, but also strengthen body, enhancing physical capabilities. In addition, he took special food for ninja cats regularly to strengthens his body and increases his chakra but at lower rate, so he was able to meet the requirements at such young age.
Looking at it this way, it was definitely worth spending the points regularly for the special cat foods.
'Lets do this!' Eight Inner Gates is a forbidden jutsu that liberates the body's natural limiters. Gate of Opening allows you to use 100% of your body's functions by removes the user's mental limiters.
Just Opening the first gate is worth the price - after all, it only costs one thousand points to unlock the first gate. The orphanage is quiet. 'Since I can't sleep anyway, might as well give it a try.'
'First Gate! Gate of Opening... Open!'
Whoosh~ The Takeshi rushed into the forest, and in an instant he rushed to a distant tree and grabbed the owl that was about to land on a branch. The owl struggled hard, but was pinned under the cat's paws and could not move.
Takeshi played with it for a while, then let it go. His state is indeed much more powerful physically, but it consumes too much stamina... 'Well, I am starting to get tired now, might as well sleep.'
The next day, In the early morning, Takeshi woke up and was planning to stay in bed for a while, but someone was knocking the window loudly. He thought it was Kabuto or Urushi telling him to wake up, but as turned his head and saw a Nekomata squatting at the window staring at himself.
Nekomata was responsible for the loud window knocking just now. 'This two-tailed cat, ruining my damn sleep.' Takeshi stood up and stared at him. 'What is this damn cat doing here? What does he want with me? Oh yeah, I mentioned cat food trading before, but now I don't have enough points to buy them.'
'Where can I get points quickly to buy him some cat food?' The Takeshi opened the window from the inside and climbed out: "Meow?"
"I want that food, the you showed last time!" The Nekomata growled out, while gritting his teeth.
'This damn black cat! he was gone to take some kind of Chunin exam, but despite me spending days searching everywhere for him, I couldn't find him. If I hadn't have ordered the others cats to be on alert and notify me when he returned, I wouldn't have known that this damn cat had returned to the village.'
"Meow?" Takeshi tilted his head acting confused, then he opened the system panel and saw that his points suddenly increased by more than seventy points. Nekomata is like a delicious fruit ripe for picking!
"Don't be arrogant!" Takeshi immediately grew in size. Although he was not as big as he can be, he was still about the size of a leopard. He looked quite ferocious.
This worked as intended... pissed off, the white dual tailed cat's tail quickly smacked it hard on the ground like a whip. "Meow!" The white cat growled again, and then stared at Takeshi angrily.
"This is not your territory, don't be too arrogant, meow~" Takeshi licked his paw. He gained more than 300 points just now. Nekomata really has great potential to become my points gold mine.
"What's the matter...huh?" Kabuto heard the commotion and came over. He went to the window peering out to took a look. He saw a white cat about the same size as Takeshi. The difference was that this white cat was a little bigger and had two tails.
When white cat saw Kabuto, he originally wanted to roar at Kabuto in annoyance to scare him away, but a scent hit his nose freezing him place... 'Meow! This is scent of that terrifying demon!'
