Itachi stopped in his tracks.
He turned, bewildered.
Karui stood beside him with her arms crossed.
As a girl, Karui had developed earlier and was naturally a little taller than Itachi, who was her age.
Right now, it looked rather like an older kid bullying a younger one.
Itachi fell silent.
Honestly, he didn't think he had done anything wrong when he looked at the Envoy Delegation earlier, but... he also felt he hadn't been entirely in the right...
Staring at certain parts of someone's body.
That was a little rude.
For a moment, Itachi didn't know how to retort.
Attacking her was out of the question. They were the Envoy Delegation from Kumogakure, and she hadn't done anything particularly outrageous.
Itachi could only turn to Gua and Izumi, planning to back off for now.
"Let's go."
Gua nodded.
He had looked, after all. Being called a pervert brat a couple of times wasn't exactly unjust.
Izumi simply thought the red-haired girl before them looked frighteningly fierce.
But with Gua there, she wasn't afraid.
The three abandoned their trip to the Mask Shop and turned to leave.
"Stop!"
Karui couldn't take it anymore.
How could this pervert brat completely ignore her? Didn't he have any awareness that he had done something wrong?
Itachi actually stopped obediently.
Gua glanced at Itachi.
My little brother, what are you doing?
Let her talk while we leave. You're really stopping just because she told you to?
Are you an elementary school kid? Why are you so obedient?
Helplessly, Gua turned around with Itachi to face Karui.
"You pervert brat! Don't you have any awareness that you did something wrong?"
Karui pointed at Itachi, seething.
Everyone nearby turned to look.
The villagers of Konoha didn't just love bullying people. They loved a spectacle, too.
Now
