章 66: Countermeasures

After collecting Fugaku's ninja fragments, Zhang Miao's purpose of coming here today was accomplished.

"Well, since today's fragments have been collected, it is time for me to go!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao ate the dangos that Mikoto brought for him, and at the same time, made Sasuke, who was learning how to speak, cried. Then he picked up his wooden box under Mikoto's dumbfounded gaze and happily left Fugaku's house.

After walking out of the Uchiha settlement, Zhang Miao suddenly looked around and found no one else around. He immediately reached out his hand.

The moment he reached out his hand, a folded piece of paper suddenly appeared in his hand out of thin air. Zhang Miao opened it, and an eye symbol was written in the middle of the paper!

If Fugaku was here, he would definitely recognize that the piece of paper in Zhang Miao's hand was the one he had just marked!

In fact, Fugaku had fallen into Zhang Miao's "trap" from the beginning!

The reason why Zhang Miao drew some goats on the paper was not to embarrass Fugaku, but to confuse him.

The result was just as Zhang Miao had thought. Fugaku only took a glance and no longer paid attention to Zhang Miao's movements, so he did not know that Zhang Miao put not four, but five papers with a goat drawn on it!

Zhang Miao drew a total of five goat. Four of them were folded and put into the small wooden box. This was what Fugaku saw with his own eyes, but Zhang Miao drew one more when he didn't pay attention and put it inside the System's storage space.

Later, when Zhang Miao put the paper that Fugaku had marked into the small wooden box, the moment he stuffed it into the wooden box, he had already exchanged it with the paper he hid in the System's storage space earlier.

In other words, the five pieces of paper in the wooden box had a goat drawn on them!

Fugaku thought that he had a 20% chance of pulling the right paper. In fact, he did not even have a chance because the road had already been sealed by Zhang Miao.

In his previous life, Zhang Miao liked to watch movies like "God of Gamblers". This trick was also done by imitating those old fools in the movies. And because of the System's storage space, the possibility of being discovered was almost zero.

"Hehe, no matter how crafty you are, you still have to kiss my ass!"

Zhang Miao smiled as he folded Fugaku's paper and put it back into the wooden box. Then he nodded with satisfaction.

"Yeah, I'll continue to trick him tomorrow. I should be able to collect enough fragment after half a year. I'm a fucking genius. Wow..."

In fact, Zhang Miao did not trick Fugaku because he had a bad intention. It was because the latter's Ninja Fragments were too difficult to collect. He had to make him bleat like a goat before he could get them.

But if he wanted Fugaku to bleat like a goat, he had to tell him some spicy secrets. It was fine if he only did it once or twice, but if he had to exchange a secret for every Ninja Fragments he needed to collect, Zhang Miao felt that it wouldn't be enough even if he emptied his book of secrets!

Without a choice, Zhang Miao could only use the lottery method to trick him.

"Fugaku's not a problem! The only thing left is the Kyubi!"

On the way home, Zhang Miao began to carefully think about how to obtain the Kyubi's trust so he would obediently hand over some fragments.

"Since he and Naruto share vision and hearing, then we can start from this aspect. But what should I do?"

Zhang Miao thought as he walked in the direction of his house. When he returned home and saw the big tree outside the house, he seemed to have thought of something and his eyes immediately lit up.

"Oh? I got it!" After thinking of a way, Zhang Miao immediately asked Fukuro beside him, "Fukuro, do you know what kind of wood with a harder texture is nearby?"

"A wood with a harder texture?"

Hearing Zhang Miao's question, Fukuro immediately touched his chin.

After thinking for a while, he nodded.

"Indeed, there is. There is a type of tree called Takumu growing in around the Captain Takumu's house. Although it grows slowly, it is very hard. The village usually uses this kind of wood to make houses. Is this wood okay?"

"Takumu?"

Hearing this familiar name, Zhang Miao thought for a moment and suddenly showed a look of realization.

"Takumu is the cat-faced uncle who came before you, right? So his codename is based on a type of wood. It seems that this wood must be very good. Okay, get the cat-faced uncle to bring me a few pieces of this wood now!"

"Huh?" Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Fukuro was immediately stunned. "Now? But the day is going to be dark soon. How about tomorrow?! "

"No!" As soon as Fukuro finished speaking, Zhang Miao immediately shook his head, "You have to bring them today. At least you have to bring a small piece of that wood over. I have an urgent need!"

Looking at Zhang Miao's serious face, Fukuro suddenly felt awkward, but before he could speak, Zhang Miao spoke again.

"Just tell the cat-faced uncle that I need this wood urgently. If he doesn't give them to me today, I will ask the Third tomorrow and to make him take care of me and my brother."

Fukuro, "..."

This move was so ruthless!

Fukuro had heard that ever since Takumu accepted the task of taking care of Zhang Miao and Naruto, it left a psychological scar in his heart. Now, Zhang Miao actually used this as a threat. Fukuro suddenly felt some sympathy for him.

"Captain Takumu, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned your name in front of him!"

However, sympathy meant nothing. Fukuro was not willing to disappoint Zhang Miao's. He immediately disappeared in front of Zhang Miao with the Body Flicker Jutsu. It seemed that he was going to find Takumu.

Perhaps because of Zhang Miao's threat, in less than an hour, Takumu, who was wearing a cat mask, arrived in front of Zhang Miao. At the same time, he was carrying a three-meter-long wood that was as thick as a bucket on his shoulder.

After putting down the wood, he spoke to Zhang Miao.

"This is the thickest one I can find now. When tomorrow comes, I will find a few more and send them to you!"

After saying this, Takumu's figure disappeared in a flash. It seemed that he had used the the Body Flicker jutsu.

Looking at the disappearing Takumu, Zhang Miao immediately shrugged his shoulders.

"Really, why are you running so fast? It's not like I'm going to eat you or something!"

As he said that, Zhang Miao kicked the wood on the ground with his foot and then grinned.

"Well, not bad. It's a good wood. It is very suitable for sculpting!"

The reason why Zhang Miao was in a hurry to let Fukuro find some hard wood was actually to make a sculpture, and the object he intended to carve with wood was the Kyubi!

Because in his opinion, the ones that would be immortalized into statues or sculptures were undoubtedly a respectable existence. Zhang Miao felt that if he could make a statue of the Kyubi, the fox would be very happy.

"The Kyubi is very arrogant. This will definitely work!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao smiled and took out a handful of Kunai from the System's storage space. He laid on the wood and began to carve it.

For a moment, wood chips flew everywhere!
