Chapter 23 Stumping the Hero



In fact, Miwa Masayo's appetite has also increased, at least three times compared to before she mastered the magic.

It's just that Uchiha You's appetite has increased tenfold and twentyfold, which makes the tabby cat not seem so exaggerated, so much so that she even ignores the strange phenomenon that her body size has not increased.

Cat Castle has some business dealings with Myobokusan and Ryuchi Cave. Cat Castle sells some daily necessities, seasonings, building materials and the like, and purchases rare minerals and plants.

After a long time of communication, although the ninja cats could not learn the immortal arts, they gradually understood the performance of immortal arts training. For example, if the immortal arts were successfully practiced, the toads and snakes would suddenly increase their appetite and then grow in size.

The cat You in the Cat Castle who has mastered the magic without knowing it is also the largest ninja cat.

Miwa Masaya practices Senjutsu Chakra, but is influenced by Uchiha Yu and is more inclined to develop in the direction of a leap in his own life level, with little change in the direction of his body size growth.

Because her body size did not change, and Miwa Masayo was a confused cat, she forgot to report to Grandma Cat, so that no one in the Cat Castle knew that she had mastered the magic.

Uchiha You was very satisfied with this. If she really grew to the size of a leopard, it would not be a problem. But with such a large body size, how could people expect Miwa Masayo to transform into a cat girl?

Could it be that in the future, Rika-chan will be the King Kong cat girl, the kind with arms thicker than Uchiha Yuu’s waist?

No way.

I just want a small, soft and furry cat.

Uh, what if, ha, it wasn’t the King Kong cat girl, but the charming black-skinned leopard girl, or the domineering tiger girl…

Slurp...

It’s not that it’s unacceptable.

However, the question raised by Miwa Masayo is indeed a problem. Uchiha Yu has no money.

The bonus of 120,000 taels for a B-level mission was originally quite considerable.

The most expensive char siu ramen at a newly opened hand-made ramen stall is only 450 taels, which is enough for three months if eaten three times a day.

What's more, Uchiha You cooks by himself. Although it takes a lot of effort, the cost is really not high. The cost of a full meal for one person and a cat is less than 150 taels, and 120,000 taels is enough to cover expenses for half a year.

But now, while the human is building his foundation and the cat is practicing magic, his appetite has increased dramatically. In just ten days, Uchiha You’s wallet is empty and even his savings are almost gone.

A penny can make a hero fall.

When Uchiha You looked at his wallet, he thought more than once about going to the Death Forest to hunt. Just catching a wild boar would be enough to eat for two days.

Too bad it can't be done.

The land of Konoha Village and everything on the land have owners. Even a tree or a rabbit belongs to a certain family or the Hokage of the Ninja Village.

All private property.

Children under the age of ten can be captured and collected without any worries, as this is the agreement between the First Hokage and Uchiha Madara.

The most an adult ninja like Uchiha You could do was pick up some fallen branches for firewood. If he hunted, he would definitely be fined, which was much more expensive than buying meat in the market.

That's what the feudal system is like.

"Starting tomorrow, I will go to the mission center to see if there are any suitable missions."

"That's right, but what if there's no suitable mission?"

"If it really doesn't work, even if it's not suitable, just accept it. As long as we leave Konoha Village, it won't be difficult for ninjas to get some meat to eat."

"Yes, meow. Then I'll go with you."

“I’m looking forward to it.”

Although every inch of mountains, forests, rivers, valleys and swamps in the Land of Fire outside of Konoha Village also has owners, they all belong to nobles of all sizes, and they have no ability to discover what the ninjas have done on their own land.

Even if they saw a ninja barbecuing in the wild, the nobles would not dare to say anything unless they wanted to die.

Ninjas are so contradictory. In the ninja village, in front of others, or when they are bound by a mission, they abide by the rules.

But in the wild, when there are no third parties and no mission constraints, there are really no taboos.

Nobles who do not understand this will not live long.

The next day, Uchiha You ran two and a half laps and returned home, only to find a letter in front of his door. The signature on the envelope was actually the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku.

Thinking that the family had given him a task, Uchiha You quickly opened it and took a look.

"Ah? Uchiha Itachi has been born, and the day after tomorrow will be his full moon day!"

“Shit!!”

"How could I have forgotten this?"

Uchiha You suddenly felt very regretful. If he had paid more attention before, could he have done something to cause the miscarriage?

To be honest, if it weren't for Uchiha Itachi, the brainless pervert, whether it was Shimura Danzo or the Third Hokage who wanted to exterminate the Uchiha clan, they would have lacked a suitable sword and a convincing enough scapegoat.

They will definitely hesitate because of this. No matter how strong Uchiha Obito hiding in the dark is, he cannot carry out the plan of genocide in Konoha Village alone.

The Uchiha family might be able to survive until the day when the Sandaime is deserted by his friends and relatives and the Fifth Hokage comes to power, and then the crisis of genocide will be eliminated.

It would be even safer if we could find another chance to kill Obito.

Uchiha You suddenly felt that he had missed out on 100 million. A leisurely and comfortable life had slipped through his fingers. He felt heartbroken!

[No, my emotions are wrong! ]

Uchiha You suddenly became alert. He didn't care about the discomfort of sweat soaking through his clothes. He immediately stood still and calmed down, feeling the state of his mind.

The monkey in the spiritual world no longer had any trace of a golden monkey. It had turned into a gibbon with snow-white hair and arms hanging to the ground.

When Uchiha You saw the gibbon, he was also seen by the heart monkey. It knew that its death was approaching, and began its dying struggle without hesitation.

[It turns out that being anxious about money can also become food for the monkey heart. But what is the difference between this white gibbon and the red silverback gorilla before? ]

[What kind of anger did I have that gave rise to that crazy and arrogant Monkey King? ]

Uchiha You was able to have wild thoughts because the white-haired gibbon did not have enough strength to resist, and the physical training he had done to build his foundation also made his will stronger, and the shock wave force in his dantian even more powerful.

The desperate resistance of the white gibbon did not produce much effect. After a few seconds, it let out a scream and turned into a sky full of white hair.

In the end, only one golden monkey was left. It looked exactly the same, but Uchiha You felt that the monkey's eyes became more lively, as if it had become smarter.

[It looks like he will become more and more cunning in the future. Interesting, really interesting. ]

"Dangkang, Dangkang."

Suddenly, a strange cry was heard from the white hair on the ground. The illusory white hair was blown high up with the sound, which frightened Uchiha You so much that his hair stood on end.

[What's going on? In the spiritual world, besides the mind and the mind, are there other animal phenomena? ]

As the white hair was digested, a round little piglet appeared. Its body was only as big as a fist, but it had a pair of white fangs in its mouth that were longer than its body.

[Auspicious beasts are healthy, this is the spiritual vision of the spleen, which belongs to the earth element! 】

[A sign of abundance, very good, very good. ]
