Revenge on Anko

"Huh? What's wrong with little Gu Qi? How is it, are you okay?"

With his face bruised and swollen, Gu Qi finally found Kakashi, who was browsing books in the Shueisha Hall, with the help of three Ninja Dogs.

But before Gu Qi could speak, Kakashi was the first to ask in a concerned tone.

Since Anko said she would beat up Gu Qi, she really dared to do it.

Moreover, she hit him hard, aiming straight for his face. Although Gu Qi fought back, he was no match for Anko at all.

At first, Gu Qi could still hold his own by relying on his agile body and the three Ninja Dogs to stall her.

But after a while, he couldn't keep it up. Both in terms of experience and stamina, Gu Qi quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Then, Gu Qi got unlucky.

Anko found an opening, grabbed him, and gave him a good beating.

"How dare you ask? Where were you when I was getting beaten up!" Gu Qi asked, very depressed.

Kakashi scratched his head: "Ah, that, I accidentally got lost on the road of life."

"..." Gu Qi's mind instantly exploded.

"Yo, isn't this my lifelong rival, Kakashi?"

However, just as Gu Qi was about to explode, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

Kakashi looked up and said blankly: "Huh? Did someone just speak?"

"Ah~, as expected of my rival." Might Guy heard this and immediately burst into tears.

When Might Guy recovered, he also noticed Gu Qi's condition: "Huh? What happened to Gu Qi-kun?"

Gu Qi was about to laugh and say he was fine, but he accidentally pulled on his wounds and couldn't help but grimace.

"Hiss, it's nothing, it's nothing. It looks bad, but it's just superficial wounds," Gu Qi explained with a depressed look.

Might Guy couldn't help but sigh: "This is youth! Not discouraged by a small setback. This is the spirit of youth."

"..." Looking at his chuunibyou demeanor, Gu Qi was completely speechless.

"Teacher Kai, Kakashi said he wants to challenge you," Gu Qi said abruptly, glancing at Kakashi, who was trying to sneak away.

Hearing Gu Qi's words, Might Guy immediately returned to normal: "As expected of my lifelong rival, I accept your challenge."

Kakashi: "..."

Putting down the books in his hand with a slight headache, Kakashi knew he couldn't escape today.

"Goodbye, Kakashi, remember to come back for dinner," Gu Qi waved his hand and shouted at a reluctant Kakashi.

"Heh heh.."

After the two left, Gu Qi walked directly towards the nearby market.

He had been beaten so badly today, if he didn't get revenge, he wouldn't be Gu Qi.

As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, Gu Qi planned to settle the score tomorrow.

After buying what he wanted, Gu Qi hurried back home.

The next day, Gu Qi disguised himself early and left his house.

He wandered around Konoha for a long time, and it was almost noon when Gu Qi finally returned to his original appearance.

"Boss, I'll take all the red bean dumplings," Gu Qi said, coming to the dumpling shop again and pulling out a ten-thousand-Ryo bill.

"Coming right up." The boss happily got busy.

Soon, a large bag of packed dumplings was handed to Gu Qi.

Gu Qi took the dumplings and started eating them without a word.

"Boss, give me twenty skewers of red bean dumplings."

Just as Gu Qi was eating the tenth skewer, which was a bit too sweet, Anko Mitarashi's figure reappeared.

The boss said apologetically: "I'm sorry, customer, that customer bought all the dumplings."

Following the direction the boss pointed, Anko Mitarashi saw Kakashi Gu Qi, who had returned to normal.

"You again!? Hand over the dumplings obediently, or else, hehe~" Anko Mitarashi cracked her knuckles and walked towards Gu Qi with a sinister grin.

Gu Qi made a face, ate the dumplings, and ran away.

"Stop right there!" Seeing Gu Qi run away, Anko Mitarashi shouted and chased after him.

Gu Qi completely ignored her, eating dumplings as he threw the used wooden skewers like senbon at Anko.

Anko, who was already furious, completely lost it: "Kakashi Gu Qi, you're dead! Stop!"

"You can't catch me, I'm just that powerful, la, la, la, la!" Gu Qi continued to taunt.

Anko Mitarashi's originally gloomy face immediately exuded an incredibly terrifying aura upon hearing Gu Qi's singing.

"Tiger-Rat-Sheep-Rat-Tiger, Shadow Snake Hand!"

As Anko finished speaking, two snakes with flickering red tongues suddenly emerged from her sleeves and lunged straight at Gu Qi.

Caught off guard, Gu Qi, whose legs were entangled by two snakes, fell directly to the ground.

"You actually used ninjutsu!" Gu Qi shouted, extremely displeased.

Anko picked up the bag from the ground and snorted, "Brat, I see you haven't learned your lesson! Today, I'm going to teach you a good lesson."

After speaking, Anko put a skewer of dumplings into her mouth with a look of intoxication.

"Mmm, Konoha's dumplings are still the best. Dumplings, dumplings, dum..."

Anko, who was happily chewing on the dumplings, suddenly rolled her eyes and clutched her throat, silently screaming there.

She didn't even notice when her favorite dumplings fell to the ground.

Then Gu Qi saw Anko's face turn completely red, then from red to white.

Finally, with a whoosh, Anko, without even forming hand seals, directly used the Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique.

"Hahaha, how do you like the taste of my specially made super perverted spicy dumplings?" Gu Qi said, hands on his hips, like a villain who had just defeated the protagonist.

"You..." Anko's face was flushed red, and she trembled, pointing at Gu Qi, completely unable to speak.

"I'll let you off today. If you dare to hit me again next time, I'll give you a good greeting," Gu Qi said, and left without looking back.

What a joke, seeing that Anko was about to recover, if he didn't leave now, when would he?

Not long after Gu Qi had scurried away, Anko finally slowly recovered from the buff provided by Gu Qi's specially made super spicy dumplings.

"Kakashi Gu Qi, I remember you now." A dangerous smile appeared on Anko's pale face.

Once she had mostly recovered, Anko Mitarashi flashed and left the area.

Soon, at Konoha's Shueisha Bookstore, Anko Mitarashi found her target.

"Lord Kakashi, can I talk to you?" Anko said respectfully to Kakashi.

Kakashi put down the book in his hand, a hint of helplessness on his face, "Does it have to be like this?"

Anko chuckled, "I've never been this miserable before. How can I not get revenge!"

Kakashi sighed, "Gu Qi has the same personality as you. This can't go on between you two."

"It's fine, I'll make Gu Qi obediently surrender," Anko said sinisterly.

"..." Kakashi had a feeling that these two would eventually turn the village upside down.

"Alright, ask whatever you want to know!"

Kakashi thought for a moment, and it seemed like a good idea to find something for Gu Qi to do. At least this way, he would only have to deal with Might Guy.

Ever since Gu Qi started learning Taijutsu from Might Guy, Gu Qi had often reported to Might Guy. Now that someone was tying up Gu Qi, Kakashi could relax a bit.

"Thank you, Lord Kakashi! Please rest assured, I will treat Gu Qi gently," Anko said with a smile.

Kakashi shook his head, then said with a serious face, "Don't show me any face. Hurt him however you want! Really, I won't take revenge for him at all."

"Huh?!" Anko's beady eyes stared straight at Kakashi. Was this really his brother?

"Achoo!" Gu Qi, who was leisurely walking home, sneezed inexplicably, giving him an ominous premonition.

Gu Qi stroked his chin, "I feel like something's not right. This feeling of being set up... it looks like Kakashi is involved."

It wasn't the first or second time Gu Qi and Kakashi had played tricks on each other, so when this feeling arose, he knew it had to be the other party pulling some stunt.

"Kakashi, that guy... by rights, he shouldn't be colluding with Anko. However, they are from the same graduating class, which is worth noting.

But knowing Kakashi's personality, a direct move is impossible. This means Kakashi has most likely leaked my information."

After a round of deduction, Gu Qi fell into deep thought.
