2-Mochimaru just wants to sleep

The next day, the Inuzuka children gathered at the house of Professor Yiroshi, an experienced chunnin who was responsible for teaching the clan's young people before they entered the ninja academy.

Yiroshi was a 61 year old ninja, next to him a huge old dog slept peacefully

Each child held a puppy, but without a doubt everyone looked at Makoto because on his head was a white cat.

"Kid Makoto.... was that really necessary?" Yiroshi

"Teacher, I don't know what you're referring to" Makoto

"meow" Mochimaru

Tsume on the side tried to control her laughter

'I can't laugh in class, I can't laugh in class, I can't laugh...a cat...hold on' Tsume

Yiroshi thought about whether it was worth discussing, but he remembered that it wasn't his problem and decided to just teach his class.

"You all found a companion and are ready to learn all the secrets of the clan, but before teaching I need to make it clear, your dogs are not weapons of war but battle companions, never treat them as disposable.." Yiroshi

"Yes sir teacher"

"Yes sir teacher"

"Yes sir teacher"

"Well, now let's start with the basics, your dogs need to learn and memorize the movements but remember that each of you is the brain of the team and all the jutsu's chakra comes from your bodies"

"Now you can take some paint and paint your faces with dog marks, this is the greatest symbol and pride of the Inuzuka clan" Yiroshi

Makoto raised his hand

"speak Makoto" Yiroshi

"Can I paint cat marks?" Makoto

Yiroshi thought of dozens of reasons to deny it, but remembered that it would bring him a problem that isn't his.

"....you can, give it a try" Yiroshi

After class ended, all the children went home and soon the matter about Mikoto spread

Some laughed and thought it was cute because it was a childish thing, but others thought it was a strong disrespect to the Inuzuka Clan.

The simple fact of making a cat a companion suddenly became a topic for top management to discuss.

In the end, the patriarch called Masaru Inuzuka decided to ignore the more radical ones and let the child have the cat as a pet.

Of course he had no expectations of Makoto training his cat, The Inuzuka clan has been training dogs for centuries and their jutsus are passed down from generation to generation, it is simply impossible to use any other animal other than dogs

Masaru believes that little Makoto will soon realize this in the worst way, during training, each progress of other students will show the harsh reality

Makoto didn't care, he paraded around the Inuzuka neighborhood with his face painted with cat paws and smiling

Mochimaru kept sleeping in his head

He started leaving the Inuzuka neighborhood after being unable to find cat food, they only sell dog food.

Makoto walked around Konoha, proudly showing off the cat markings on his face.

The next day, Yiroshi taught how to order the dogs to advance and retreat.

"Kuromaru, bite that target" Tsume

Kuromaru advanced and with his small teeth destroyed a cloth target.

"Mochimaru, go and cut the target!" Makoto

Mochimaru looked at the target and then back at Makoto, in the end she just turned over to sleep

Makoto wanted to cry, Mochimaru just lay on the floor the whole class
