Chapter 122 Tomato Sasuke
"Although I hope you won't give me any more troublesome missions, you don't want me to carry out this kind of mission again, right?!"
Haruko was so upset that she felt like crying in the morning, after making a lot of tactful complaints to Tsunade, she finally got the promise that she would not be assigned any tasks for the time being.
Unexpectedly, Kakashi Hatake gathered them together again and said he would take them to catch cats.
Hatake Kakashi said in a casual tone: "A good ninja doesn't pick and choose missions."
The corners of Haruko's mouth twitched. Kakashi should be the happiest one since he doesn't have to carry out those high-risk missions? !
"Going to catch cats again!" Uzumaki Naruto sat cross-legged on the grass and complained.
Although he was happy to be able to carry out missions with Haruko, this simple mission was not enough to allow him to shine in front of Haruko!
"It's still a little different. It's not about catching a cat again, but about catching a cat-mamata. The mission is to bring back the cat-mamata's paw prints." Hatake Kakashi stood and looked down at them.
"...Teacher Kakashi is so funny, he even plays word games." Haruko Asako stared at him with a wry smile.
Uzumaki Naruto fell to the ground and threw a tantrum, "I don't want to! I want to carry out a high-level mission!"
No, she didn't want a high-level mission either.
In the morning, Haruko carefully examined her inner self and found that she just wanted to be a slacker.
Uchiha Sasuke, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke up: "You don't have to go if you don't want to. This is Uchiha... No, this is my mission."
"Sasuke's mission?"
As soon as he said this, both Morning Haruko and Uzumaki Naruto became curious.
……
"You're finally here, Master Sasuke."
"Long time no see, Granny Cat."
In the morning, Haruko carefully observed the old woman opposite who was surrounded by all kinds of cats. She was wearing an orange coat, a pink scarf, a black nose, her hair was tied in a big bunch, and she was wearing a black cat ear headband. She looked like a "cat woman" in the literal sense of the word.
She was holding a pipe in her hand and exhaled heavily, looking like someone who was not easy to mess with.
"Master Sasuke? Pfft..."
Haruko was still able to hold back her laughter in the morning, but she accidentally made eye contact with Uzumaki Naruto, who was also trying to hold back his laughter, and they both burst into tittering laughter.
Uchiha Sasuke stood between the two of them, feeling the wanton ridicule from both sides. He clenched his fists, feeling so ashamed that he wanted to throw both of them out.
According to Uchiha Sasuke, Granny Cat's shop is a custom-made ninja weapon shop and is also the source of information for the Uchiha clan.
Granny Cat ignored the children's mischief and shouted into the room, "Huan, bring me the Complete Book of Cat's Paws."
"Okay mother-in-law!"
A girl about their age walked out from behind the curtain. She had neat short hair and looked very different from the friendly and lovely cat lady.
Tamaki even smiled shyly at them as he made eye contact with them.
Uchiha Sasuke raised his eyebrows when he saw the "Cat's Claw Encyclopedia" in Granny Cat's hand, "Did you make it into a book?"
"It seems that you know a lot about this mission!" Uzumaki Naruto poked him with his elbow teasingly.
Uchiha Sasuke impatiently avoided him, turned and walked to the other side of Hayama Haruko, only to find that Hayama Haruko was also looking at him with a surprised expression.
Uchiha Sasuke: ...
Granny Cat wiped the cover of "Cat's Claw Encyclopedia" and recalled: "This book was originally made by Sasuke and his brother Itachi. Itachi often brought young Sasuke to my place to learn how to use weapons, but Sasuke didn't like to study blindly. His willfulness made Itachi very embarrassed."
"Eh - it turns out that Sasuke also has times when he doesn't like studying." Morning Haruko glanced teasingly at Uchiha Sasuke, whose ears were already a little red.
"So Itachi came up with the idea of collecting the paw prints of agile cats. At first, the game was very simple and interesting, and Sasuke basically completed it without much effort. Later, the difficulty gradually increased, and he could even complete the tasks that Itachi half-jokingly proposed."
"And the paw prints in this book were all collected by him."
After Granny Cat explained, Huan spread out a huge cat's paw print for them to see.
Uzumaki Naruto came closer and compared with his hands, admitting in his heart, not quite convinced, that Uchiha Sasuke was indeed powerful.
"Although Sasuke has not continued now, I am very interested. Thanks to the two people from Kumogakure, one of the two missions left by Itachi was solved. The last one is entrusted to you."
Granny Cat's narrowed eyes slightly opened, "However, Cat is a big shot behind the scenes manipulating the Ninja Cat world, and will never show up easily."
Uzumaki Naruto patted his clothes confidently and said, "Leave it to us, there will be no problem!"
"Itachi said before that this mission was too difficult, so he didn't let Sasuke go. Don't take it lightly." The cat lady said hoarsely and took another puff of her pipe.
"Is that why Sasuke is so excited?" Haruko Asahi leaned forward slightly and smiled to catch Uchiha Sasuke's gaze.
Uchiha Sasuke met her smiling eyes. He wanted to turn his head away out of embarrassment, but he was reluctant to move away from the source of his attraction.
Part of this mission is related to Uchiha, and the other part is... to snatch Haruko Hayama away from those irrelevant people.
Because the cats were hiding in a heavily surrounded castle and were protected by countless ninja cats, in order to sneak into the castle smoothly and safely, the cat lady specially prepared cat ear headbands for them.
"As long as you wear them, not only can you translate cat language, but cats will also regard you as their own kind." Grandma Cat handed them three pink and white cat ear headbands with a smile.
Uchiha Sasuke looked at the cute cat ear headband in his hand with disbelief in his eyes.
You want me to wear something like this?!
On the other side, Hayama Haruko and Uzumaki Naruto put them on without any burden.
"Oh! Naruto you look like a golden retriever cat!"
"Haruko, you are really super super pretty!"
Attracted by their excited voices, Uchiha Sasuke raised his head and looked towards them.
In the morning, the pink and white cat ears were faintly visible in Haruko's long black hair, which looked like plush hair that had grown naturally, making her look more cute for no reason. Her round and watery eyes were now filled with a smile, like a spoiled cat.
Especially when her eyes met with Uchiha Sasuke's, whose gaze completely occupied her, he felt as if his heart was suddenly hit hard.
So...so cute!!!
Uchiha Sasuke clutched the clothes on his chest and his face turned red.
"Sasuke, why aren't you wearing it yet?" Haruko Asahi tilted her head in confusion.
From Uchiha Sasuke's perspective, Haruko looked at him in confusion and tilted her head playfully.
In the morning, Haruko watched his face getting redder and redder, and he even turned his back to them.
"Sasuke looks like a tomato." Haruko whispered to Naruto to share something interesting.
Uzumaki Naruto ran over fearlessly and got a closer look at Uchiha Sasuke. After receiving a look like he was looking at a dead man, Uzumaki Naruto replied excitedly: "Really, really! Sasuke is like a cartoon...ah!"
Uchiha Sasuke didn't hesitate and used one hand to uppercut him, knocking him away.
Haruko Zaoma, who instigated the golden retriever cat to die, mourned for him.
Naruto is simply a warrior!
