Chapter 46: The Wounded Cat

Forest of the mountain gods.

Kakashi sat cross-legged, quietly feeling what was going on inside him.

"The chakra is overwhelmed, and only a tenth of the demonic power is left. It's really miserable enough. ”

Kakashi sighed, there had been some trouble lately.

However, it saved Ah Yin's life, and the deal was worth it.

"It's strange, though, and seems to have a weird balance."

Chakra is lost, demonic power is missing, and Kakashi's combat power is naturally greatly reduced.

But strangely, this form achieves an eerie balance.

During the day, Kakashi takes on the form of a human, and at night, he transforms into a youkai.

In this case, although it is still troublesome, it is already within the range of bearing.

Kakashi got up and stretched.

"That's fine, you can go back and recover slowly. You don't have to bother in the mountains and forests. ”

Yamanaka.

Ah Yin and Hotaru are strolling hand in hand.

"Ah Yin, what are your plans for the future?"

"Now that we have regained our human bodies, we naturally have to return to the human world. It's just that this is the place where I was raised, and I am reluctant to leave the mountain god grandfather. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"Hotaru, I'll go wherever you go in the future, and I don't want to be separated from you again." Ah Yin whispered in Hotaru's ear.

The warm snort blew through her ears, and Hotaru's cheeks instantly turned red.

"Ah Yin ......"

"Ahem, although it's a bit of a bad scenery to come here at this time, it doesn't seem right to sneak a look from the side."

The abrupt voice made both of them stunned.

I saw Kakashi appear in a tree not far from the two of them without knowing what.

"Mr. Kakashi, when are you coming, don't say anything." Ah Yin said helplessly.

"I just arrived, but I didn't see anything."

Kakashi said with a smile as he jumped down from the tree and landed in front of the two.

Hotaru shyly hid behind Agin's back, not daring to look at Kakashi.

After all, she was only a sixteen-year-old girl.

"I just listened to your plan, and I have a little advice for you." Kakashi laughed.

"So you've been listening to it for a long time." Ah Yin debunked.

"Hahaha, don't worry about these details. So do you want to hear my advice? ”

Ah Yin was a little helpless, but he was also quite curious about what Kakashi was going to say.

"Say it."

"Since you have become a human being, it is natural that you cannot live in seclusion in the mountains forever. Maybe in a few decades, you can make that choice. But you haven't seen the gorgeous world yet, and it's a little early to talk about seclusion in the mountains and forests. And I know, Ah Yin, you've always been interested in human society, haven't you? Kakashi laughed.

Ah Yin was silent when he heard this.

Indeed, Ah Yin has lived in the mountains and forests since he was a child.

The only time I went out was probably the last time I went to his house with Kakashi.

But it was a rural place after all.

Compared to the bustling city, it is still far behind.

He has a heart that yearns for the outside world.

Originally, because of physical reasons, there was no way to travel far.

But now it's different.

He has completely become a normal person, and naturally he should have a life of his own.

"Besides, Hotaru has her parents. She also has her own network of human social relationships, as well as books that she has not finished, schools that she has not finished, and landscapes that she has not seen. The world is too big, too big. Only after seeing those landscapes can you understand what kind of life model you really want. You, understand? ”

Kakashi slowly spoke his advice.

He had all this advice from the heart.

Because that's what he wants, too.

In the Hokage's world, he's always been busy.

Even if there are a few long trips, there is a certain purpose.

He hasn't traveled all the mountains and rivers of that world yet.

He's waiting.

Wait for the time when Naruto can pick up the girder.

At that time, he would take Terumi to the world of the two of them.

Go and see the scenery all over the world.

After seeing the scenery, you may understand the beauty of the world.

That was Kakashi's pursuit, and it was his yearning.

He said this, not to impose his own outlook on life on Ah Yin and Hotaru, but to give them a reference.

Maybe they'll like it too.

Maybe they're looking for something different.

But none of this.

Ah Yin and Hotaru looked at each other when they heard this, and they both saw longing in each other's eyes.

That's a beautiful life, isn't it?

"Kakashi-san, we see, thank you for your advice."

Kakashi smiled, noncommittal.

"Alright, that's it. Ah Yin, I know that you won't leave here until the summer vacation is over. But after the summer vacation, you can come to my house. I have something to give you. ”

"Something? What is it? Ah Yin said curiously.

"It's a good thing."

Ah Yin was even more confused when he heard this.

"Okay, I'm leaving, you can talk to the mountain god and the little fox for me."

"So fast?" Ah Yin was surprised.

"Well, for some reason, my problem is solved, so I should go back too. I have a lot of people in my family waiting for me to feed. Kakashi laughed.

"In that case, then I won't keep Mr. Kakashi. In a month, I'll go to you. ”

"Okay, that's a deal."

Kakashi left the Forest of the Mountain Gods, but on the other side, Natsume came nearby.

As for why Natsume came here, it's a long story.

Originally, Natsume wanted to find Demon Spirit Grass for Kakashi, hoping to help Kakashi recover from his injuries.

But unexpectedly, he encountered an ambushed youkai on the way.

Natsume naturally saved her without hesitation.

And a series of things happened in it.

Shizuji Bara, whom Natsume met for the first time.

And in this unexpected confrontation, the cat teacher was accidentally shot and injured by the Shizuji of the field.

Although Shizuji of the field is not in Kakashi's opinion, his technique does have a lot of damage to the youkai.

The cat teacher's wound was unexpectedly unhealed for a while.

Natsume was worried.

After following C's advice, Natsume went to the vicinity of the Forest of the Mountain God to look for Longcao.

It is said to be an herb that can effectively restore the injuries of youkai.

And when Natsume came to look for this herb, he also happened to meet the little fox.

Kakashi didn't know about it.

He has now returned to his home.

"Coming back so soon?"

Tanuki was a little surprised, originally said that it was a good month, but now it turned out to be half a month to come back. That's a lot more efficient.

"There was a little accident, and although it hasn't been fixed yet, it's not a big problem. By the way, how is Mr. Yasaka's shadow and Miya? ”

"Those two guys, they talk about love under the cherry blossom tree every day, and they're annoyed." Tanuki complained.

"Mr. Yasaka has regained his memory?"

"Come on, I think I've remembered most of it. Looking at his appearance, his demonic power has increased a lot. You're not going to get sucked again, are you? Tanuki asked.

"As things stand, that's true."

Kakashi said, yawning.

"I'm a little sleepy, so let's not talk about it, I'll go sleep first."

Kakashi returned to his room and began to fall asleep.

Tanuki squinted his eyes, feeling that something was wrong.

"Has Kakashi become so weak? I'm starting to get sleepy. It seems that the damage to him this time is really not small. This idiot, for the sake of an unknown Yasaka, as for this extent? Obviously, as long as the cherry blossom trees are burned, they will be fine. ”

Tanuki secretly complained, but he could only complain.

He knew that Kakashi would not accept his advice.

And it's because Kakashi won't accept it that he wants to stay by his side, doesn't he?

Forest of the mountain gods.

"Kakashi-sensei isn't in the Forest of the Mountain God?" Natsume said in surprise.

"You just left in the morning, Natsume, you're late." Ah Yin said with a smile.

"Really? Is Kakashi-sensei coming home? ”

"Hmm."

Natsume said happily when he heard this, "So, Kakashi-sensei's injury is healed?" ”

"It's not clear. But according to his meaning, it seems that there is no big problem. ”

"That's good."

The big stone in Natsume's heart can be regarded as falling to the ground.

Having said that, there have been people around him who have been injured lately.

First Kakashi, then Cat-sensei.

He also embarked on a journey to find medicine.

It's just that the dragon grass has been found with the help of the little fox, but the demon spirit grass has not seen any shadow.

Saying goodbye to Ah Yin and the little fox, Natsume went home.

And before that, Kakashi came to Fujiwara's house.

It's just that Kakashi didn't go through the main entrance to enter, but chose to enter through the window.

"The kitten is actually injured?"

Seeing the cat teacher lying on the pillow with an uncomfortable face, Kakashi was a little surprised.

He originally wanted to come over to see Natsume's situation, but he didn't expect to see an injured cat.

"Kitty, what's wrong with you?"

The cat teacher writhed uncomfortably, but did not open her eyes.

Kakashi frowned, the injury was a bit exaggerated.

A monster like Eban, would feel so uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Kakashi reached out to look at the cat teacher's wounds.

At this time, C didn't know where to jump out.

"Kakashi, you'd better not touch Madara, he's very uncomfortable right now."

"C? Do you know what's going on? ”

"Naturally, it's a good thing done by the demon slayer."

"Demon slayer? With the strength of the kitten, there is still a demon slayer who can hurt him? ”

"If you deal with it head-on, the odds are still there. Only this time, Madara was injured to protect Natsume. ”

"Protect Natsume? What's going on? ”

"To put it simply, Natsume was involved in the actions of the Ban clan, and Madara was shot by the spell arrow of Shizuji Ba. Although it was not life-threatening, it was enough for him to feel uncomfortable for a while. However, Natsume has already gone to find Longcao, and as long as he finds Longcao, the speed of recovery will be accelerated. ”

"The Field of Shizuji? It's that guy again. This guy is really restless. Kakashi said helplessly.

"It would be a strange thing if the people of the field clan could settle down." C laughed.

"That's right. But this time the kitten was unlucky. ”

"It's also to blame himself for being careless. An opponent like Shizuji is so easy to deal with. ”

Kakashi shook his head, didn't say anything and pressed his right hand on Madara's body.

"Hiss......"

Madara gasped, apparently painful for him.

"It seems that the charm blessed on that bow and arrow is not low. It's been a few days, and it's still having this effect. ”

"After all, that's the weapon that Shizuji himself used to fight, so how could it not be powerful."

"That's right, but I pity the little kitten. But since I'm here, I'll help you. ”

Kakashi said, his right hand emitting a faint green chakra.

C was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and seemed to think of something.

But there is no way to confirm it.

With the emanation of green chakra, the originally painful expression of Madara gradually returned to normal.

In the end, his face was peaceful, as if he was asleep.

Seeing this, Kakashi withdrew his right hand.

"The effect looks good, but there is no complete cure yet, and it may take two more treatments."

"Kakashi, what technique did you just use?" C asked suddenly.

"This? You can call it medical ninjutsu. You probably won't understand ...... when I say that."

"Medical ninjutsu?"

C's pupils shrank, and he looked at Kakashi with a look of horror.

"Uh, why do you have that expression?"

Kakashi looked puzzled.

"You actually know ninjutsu?"

"You know ninjutsu?"

This time it was Kakashi's turn to be surprised.

C nodded solemnly and said, "I once saw a record in an ancient book. Thousands of years ago, there was a profession that prevailed in this world, and that was ninja. It's just that later, for unknown reasons, it gradually declined and was replaced by an onmyoji. Later, the Onmyoji was replaced by the Demon Slayer. And the technique used by ninjas is ninjutsu. Isn't this kind of thing long lost? Why do you still do this move? ”

"And such a thing?"

Kakashi looked confused.

Is there still a ninja in this world?

Also a thousand years ago?

That's a big joke.

"Kakashi, don't you know where your ninjutsu came about?" C wondered.

"This ...... It's really hard to explain. But if there were ninjas in this world, it would be interesting. ”

"What do you mean?"

Kakashi smiled and said, "I won't tell you yet." ”

Suddenly, Kakashi's ears moved, and he said, "The tower is coming, I'll go first." ”

With that, an instant vanished.

C doesn't matter.

She's a youkai, and the tower can't see her at all.

It's just that she's still thinking about Kakashi.

The door opened, and Aunt Tazi walked in.

"It's strange, I heard the voice just now, why didn't I see anyone?"

Tazi looked puzzled, and at this time, the cat teacher stretched out from the pillow and stood up.

Tazi was overjoyed when he saw this and hugged the cat teacher.

"So you woke up? Are you hungry, I made you your favorite pastry. Guizhi is not here, and his share is also given to you. ”

"Meow ......"
