Senior Brother of Konoha

After searching everywhere, he couldn't find the spirit beast leopard cat kitten. Naruto was very unwilling, but he had no choice but to give up.

Judging from the sky, it was probably 4pm at 1:pm, and the return trip would take at least an hour. There was still a chance to start processing the prey now, but if we delayed any longer, we might have to spend the night outside the town, which would be very dangerous.

With his left hand, he grasped the handle of the Xuanjie low-grade sharp knife that he had snatched from Mizuki, and aimed the tip of the knife at the heart of the big wild boar. He made a fist with his right hand and thumped his left hand hard.

When the sharp knife penetrates the meat, it feels quite sluggish, but it still goes in.

When he pulled out the sharp knife, blood spurted out, flying more than ten feet high.

Naruto jumped away to avoid it, temporarily ignoring the dying wild boar and carrying a sharp knife to deal with other wild boar carcasses.

This wild boar has four tusks, two large and two small, which are hard and sharp and can be used to refine weapons and can also be used as materials for spells.

If Naruto wants to get the most valuable and most portable part of the wild boar in the shortest time, the fangs are the best choice.

The work was carried out very quickly. After only a quarter of an hour, he obtained 6 tusks from 24 male wild boars.

When he returned to the big wild boar, he had completely died.

He first carefully gouged out the only remaining right eye of the big wild boar and installed it, then took out the six tusks, two large, four small, and placed them together with the other tusks.

The remaining teeth of the wild boar can be used to make bone arrowheads, each worth 20 copper plates. Unfortunately, there is no time now, so we can only leave them here temporarily and wait for processing tomorrow.

Now, it's time to lift up the big wild boar and go back with the wild boar's tusks and the body of the spiritual beast ocelot.

Just when Naruto was about to take away the broken body of the spiritual beast Leopard Cat, a surprise appeared.

"Meow"

"Meow"

Two extremely subtle meows sounded in succession. If Naruto hadn't had a keen sense of hearing, he would have missed it as the sound of wind.

He raised his head and looked along the sound. On a pine tree branch three feet high on the left side, there was a kitten about the size of a palm crawling.

The slender body, purple-blue fur, round ears, and large, translucent green eyes are almost the same as the spirit beast leopard cat on the ground. It is obviously the kitten born of the spirit beast leopard cat. Looking at the newly full moon look.

No, not one kitten, but two

Naruto was so surprised that he almost jumped up high.

Fortunately, he is usually cold enough and can control his emotions even in this situation.

Otherwise, if you scare the two kittens away, there will be no hope of finding them.

Spiritual beasts, ocelots, are best at hiding. Unless they appear on their own initiative, it would be difficult for ordinary people to find out where they are hiding.

This is true even for kittens who are just one month old.

This was the reason why Naruto couldn't find these two kittens after searching for so long just now.

Now, two kittens have been found. As long as they can be brought back smoothly, that is the biggest gain. Everything else can be discarded.

The problem is, although kittens are small, they are also smart. How can we catch them?

Naruto searched his mind for the memories of the beast taming brother, and only found his praise for the spiritual beast ocelot's spirituality, but no specific capture method.

After thinking for a long time, he made a bold decision.

He did not capture the kitten first, nor did he touch the body of the adult leopard cat. Instead, he first dug a square pit half a man deep on a nearby higher slope.

Then he carefully picked up the body of the adult leopard cat, wrapped it in his own coat and put it inside. Then he stood in front of the tomb and solemnly recited a "rebirth mantra" to dispel resentment.

After doing this, he stopped and looked up at the two kittens on the pine branches.

.

Naruto himself also lost his parents, and he heard from his grandfather that his parents also died to protect him, so he could empathize with the two kittens.

However, he did this not entirely to please the two kittens, but also for more practical and utilitarian reasons.

If only the two kittens could understand his kindness and be willing to come down and follow him.

But if the two kittens refused to obey, then he would have no choice but to risk catching the cats.

Before taking action, he should first bury the body of the spiritual beast leopard cat, which would be the escape route left by him, in case the last two attacks failed.

There will be ferocious beasts hunting in Chailin at night. They may not be frightened by the scent left by the spiritual beast leopard cat. They will most likely drag away the bodies of wild boars and spiritual beast leopard cats and eat them.

Wrapping the body of the spirit beast leopard cat in clothes and burying it in a deep pit was the best way he could think of to preserve it.

.

I don't know if the two kittens are really that smart, or if Naruto is lucky enough, or for some other reason. When he buried the ocelot, the completed year spirit beast, the two kittens jumped down from the pine branches nimbly. , and then climbed onto Naruto's shoulders.

At this time, Naruto was almost too excited to control himself.

If he wasn't worried about scaring away the two kittens, he would definitely jump up and do ten or eight somersaults to show his excitement.

"Do you agree to go home with me?"

Naruto looked left and right, admiring the two kittens sitting on his shoulders.

The two kittens naturally didn't reply. They didn't even pay attention to Naruto's question, and even stretched out their front paws to pat away Naruto's hand that tried to pet them.

Is this afraid of life?

Naruto was confused.

In the blink of an eye, he put aside this doubt and gave up his plan to get close to them through petting. He had to rush back as soon as possible, and he had to get back to the town before it was completely dark.

.

However, just as Naruto was trying to walk towards the tree bridge over the creek, the two kittens made a move that surprised him.

They stood up at the same time, raised their tails, and emitted a low whistle toward the river.

这 是

Naruto realized something was wrong.

Even if they are not spiritual beasts, this kind of action by ordinary animals means that there is something threatening them ahead.

Even the big wild boar just now failed to expose the two kittens. Now that they are doing this, doesn't it mean that there is something more dangerous than the big wild boar on the other side of the river?

Naruto suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

He couldn't even defeat a large wild boar, let alone anything more dangerous than a large wild boar.

What else is there to say? Just run away.

He no longer hesitated, randomly chose a direction and started running.

.

Unfortunately, the enemy Naruto and the two kittens faced was so powerful that by the time they realized the danger, it was already too late.

He had just taken two steps when he was swept back by a huge force like a violent wind right in front of him.

嗵

Naruto fell on the tomb of the adult spirit beast Ocelot.

Ignoring checking his own injuries, he immediately stood up and stared with wide eyes at the enemy who attacked him.

The first thing he saw was the two kittens held by the opponent, the second thing he saw was the Konoha forehead protector tied to the opponent's left arm, and the third thing he saw was a pair of eyes with no pupils visible. Roll your eyes.
