Chapter 70: Chapter 70
Kushina's cooking skills are not quite good, but she is still competent at cutting meat and prepping ingredients, usually she wouldn't spend so much time for cooking, as Ichiraku is close by. Since Minato was returning, she didn't mind putting in abit of effort.
Takeshi looked on little frightened. He felt that the woman might have poured out all her anger for not being able to cook well on these poor pieces of meat. The chopping board was making loud chopping noises, making the cat feel frightened.
"Hahaha, Kushina, you are still... so cute," Jiraiya chuckled. He had originally wanted to remark on her grumpiness, but changed his words at the last moment.
'So cowardly!' Takeshi curled his lips in disdain.
"Takeshi-chan, you keep sticking out your tongue and making faces, don't you think Kushina is cute?"
"Meow~ Ofcourse I do!" Takeshi retorted swiftly, while sneakily observing surroundings.
It was Jiraiya's turn to laugh - he answered so quickly, isn't he a coward? "Don't laugh at others, while you are in same situation." he remarked, chuckling.
Takeshi glanced at the points panel and found that it had increased by dozens of points. He immediately didn't care about Jiraiya's actions - compared with the points, what was this little thing like pride?
He pondered how to continue to get some points from Jiraiya, but after Jiraiya had experienced his methods, how could he get any more points? It'll be difficult.
The little black cat jumped on the kitchen counter and wanted to harass Kushina, but he was afraid that he would accidentally become another ingredient on the chopping board, so he had to stay away.
'Forget it, I can earn more points later,' Takeshi decided, and started running around the house. On the one hand, it was to cause a stir and maybe get some points. On the other hand, he needs to digest the natural energy in his body and let it further expand into within his body.
Previously, he was worried that after increasing his senjutsu chakra, he would become as big as the toads, but after eating it again, he found that his body did not become gigantic, but his claws seemed to be much stronger.
In the past, clawing at ground with his claws would only leave a shallow mark, but now he can leave deep marks on the ground directly after clawing, which shows that his claws are sharper and harder.
This should be the manifestation of Senjutsu chakra being integrated into the body. Fortunately, but what is worrying is that in the future, if the claws become harder and sharper, and become too long and uncomfortable, then where can he sharpen them to a comfortable level? Takeshi was worried while running. As he opened the Shop, he saw two cat scratching posts that he had not used in the item space.
"So that's it, would it be useful?" Takeshi pondered, then remembered the iron ball he had placed his hope on. It appeared useful at initial glance, but in fact it was knocked away by the enemy like a ball... It was all useless! he lamented in his heart that according to this method of accumulation, it was impossible to get more than 10,000 points.
The little black cat was walking around the house, Kushina was cutting meat, and Jiraiya took out his pen and started writing for his novel.
He hasn't gotten started with the Icha-Icha Paradise yet, and all he writes now are more formal novels. But it's obvious that all of his novels have been sold out, and it's probably not hard to get them published.
Soon after, Kushina scolded Takeshi, allowing the little black cat to successfully collect the first wave of points from Kushina, and at the same time, he calmed down to avoid being punished by this violent woman. Not long after, the door opened, and Minato returned home.
He saw Jiraiya sitting in the house, and there was a black cat running around the house on the ground. He was a little confused - 'what is this? did something happen?' After some explanation, he understood, and then sent a shadow clone to invite Kakashi, Obito and Rin over, and also bought some meat, fish, shrimp, etc., and prepared for everyone to have a dinner together.
Rin is safe and sound, Obito is not only fine, but looks high-spirited, his temperament has completely changed from before, and he doesn't even wear goggles after activating his sharingan, he didn't abandon his green tights though.
Takeshi jumped on top of him, establishing his dominance. Obito wanted to knock the cat down with his hands, while the cat jumped around and dodged to avoid the attack while still holding on to the territory.
Everyone knew by now, that this black cat likes is quite mischievous, so they did not stop them, but instead watched with laughter.
A few minutes later, Obito sat on the chair in frustration. The cat above his head was acting arrogantly, but he couldn't do anything about it.
His expression seemed as if he had lost hope in life. "Why do I still get bullied by cats even though I have the Sharingan? Could it be that destiny is inevitable..." Obito mused aloud.
"Takeshi, don't stay on Obito's head all the time, come down!" Jiraiya called out.
"Meow~" The black cat jumped down from above his head. In fact, he didn't want to be so mean, but the arrogant Obito needs to be humbled.
He poured a bucket of cold water on his arrogrance and got more than 400 points. Along with 'helping' Obito, this is already a huge amount of points.
Not long after, Minato brought over the barbecue utensils and sat at the table to chat while grilling. At the beginning, they talked about the process of the mission.
During this period, Obito kept talking about how powerful and brave he was, which attracted everyone's laughter.
Takeshi listened on the sidelines, his mind calm - it was indeed just a testing mission, not easy but not too difficult, and most of the enemies were at the elite Chunin level.
If Minato doesn't take action, they can complete the task alone, which shows that Kakashi and the others have the ability to become an elite team.
But then, Minato mentioned the Chunin Exam: "Due to the success of the peace talks in Sunagakure Village, next week we will jointly hold the Chunin Exam at Kikyo Mountain Castle on the border of the Land of Fire, So ..."
"Are we going to participate?" Rin wanted to participate.
"That's right, but Kakashi has already been promoted to Chunin, so he can't go. The village plans to add a temporary teammate to you." Jiraiya clapped his head and looked at Obito with a smile on his lips
" I heard you have a good relationship with Guy and are also quite respectful. "
"Harmony and understanding in a team are very important, so after comprehensive consideration, the village decided to temporarily add Guy to your team, and the three of them will take the Chunin Exam together." Minato smiled.
"Why did Guy get involved?" Takeshi felt sad. According to the canon, Obito, Guy and Rin were all promoted to Chunin at the age of eleven. In the canon, they probably did not participate in this year's Chunin exam at all.
Because this is an exam after the war, both sides are aggressive. It is far more cruel than the ordinary Chunin exam, but now there is an extra one... Well, so Rin and Obito are both qualified to participate, and of the remaining generation of children, only Guy is barely qualified, followed by Asuma Sarutobi of the Sarutobi clan.
"Why not Asuma!" Takeshi felt resentful. Even though Asuma wasn't that strong compared to himself, he was still able to collect points from Asuma. Unlike Guy, he would be fortunate not to go bald from stress spending time with Guy.
As he is a ninja beast, and his thinking is completely different from that of a normal person. But he still feels that his reasoning is valid...
