"Meow ~"
The injury incident that he imagined did not happen. The cat called Xiaohu stuck to Sasuke's side, meowing and rubbing his fingers.
"Teacher Kakashi, the mission is to be completed before nightfall, right?”
Sasuke looked at the kitten and sympathized with it for a second about what it would face when it returned.
Even though the cat was helpless being hugged by the famous lady, its life was much better than other cats.
However, since it was the one who took the initiative to stick to him, he should at least stall for time. He would treat it as a simple holiday for this cat called Little Tiger.
" Yes, just send it back before dark. Sasuke, don't tell me you're thinking of..."
Kakashi saw that Sasuke's fingers had already stroked the kitten's head. Without saying anything else, he took a step back and jumped onto the branch, letting them play.
But he really didn't know that Sasuke liked cats.
"Sasuke..."
Others had no objections, but Naruto did not.
Previously, Sasuke had been accompanying him. Now that this cat had appeared, it had directly taken away his position.
"Accompany me to rest for a while…"
Sasuke's other hand rubbed Naruto's hair, then he fell back and leaned on Naruto's leg. He lay down and narrowed his eyes to look at the sky through the leaves.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet after that. Naruto sat on the tree trunk and did not dare to move, afraid that Sasuke would feel uncomfortable lying down.
The cat next to Sasuke also stayed put and did not make any more noise.
On the tree, Kakashi looked at the comic book in his hand. Only Sakura found a tree that was slightly further away and continued practicing Chakra climbing.
Time slowly passed. When the sky was about to darken, Sasuke's fingers exerted a little force and caught the cat that wanted to leave. At the same time, he sat up and looked at Naruto with a gentle gaze.
It was time for them to send this willful cat back and accept the next mission.
Previously, he had suspected why this cat called Little Tiger would escape so wantonly.
Seeing that they weren't in a hurry but had already taken the initiative to go back, Xiao Hu roughly understood the reason.
The willful cat needed to come out and experience the joy of freedom, but it was reluctant to give up the treatment at Madam Daimyo's place. However, because there were ninjas carefully inviting it back every day, the cat became more and more courageous.
With someone to protect him, he could be unscrupulous.
As he carried the cat back to the village, Sasuke suddenly saw three children running around on the street.
Kogyamaru…
It was similar to this cat. Because it was pampered and protected, it did not know what danger was. All the enjoyment of resources would be treated as a burden. It only wanted to experience the dangerous outside world that it had never come into contact with.
"Annoying child…"
Naruto walked beside Sasuke. When he saw that the kids did not care about the passersby and ran away happily, some childhood memories surfaced in his mind.
Back then, he had to be careful with every step he took. Even if he tried his best to avoid it, he would always be 'accidentally' bumped into by someone.
Laughter, joyful laughter…
Ever since he was young, when he was knocked down or beaten up, those people would leave with this kind of happy laughter.
He could only endure the pain and get up from the ground to escape.
"Naruto, I'll be here in the future..."
Sasuke watched as Naruto's resentment soared. He reached out and hugged Naruto with some sadness.
A painful childhood. This would be a pain that Naruto would never forget for the rest of his life, and he had no intention of helping Naruto erase it.
As expected, he was also a bad person…
Outside the Naruto building, Kakashi shared the money earned from the cat-catching mission with them. He then told them about the mission that the third generation Naruto had assigned to them.
In fact, he was just casually mentioning it. After all, some rules could not be changed.
However, the third-generation successor actually gave him a new mission. Moreover, it was a C-rank mission, and it was a mission out of the village…
He couldn't understand the deeper meaning behind this for the time being, but one thing was clear. After he left, he would have the opportunity to teach the three little ghosts all kinds of ninjutsu seriously.
"Teacher Kakashi, I knew you were the best. I love you so much!”
