Chapter 142: Grinding On Snakes - 4

"You're something else, you know that brat?"

"I could say the same about you."

The pair of them, Daiki and Anko were currently seated in a private booth at the back of a small dango shop.

A favourite of the snake users.

Anko sat directly across from the teen, lounging across the soft upholstery. The booth was large enough to sit four people, on either side of the table within, large enough that the purple haired woman could lean back comfortable, one leg crossed beneath her while the other was up fully so she could lean on it with one arm was well.

Her other hand...was currently occupied.

With multiple sticks of dango.

Honestly, it was a very unladylike position, and would let anyone that looked get a full view up her skirt if they wanted. The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.

Not that Anko seemed to care.

Daiki wasn't one to turn a free show down, well, he was off it was some ugly motherfucker.

But Anko was not.

She was hot as sin.

The purple haired woman cracked her neck with a slight jerk of her head and a small hiss, "You don't hold back at all, even when it comes to chicks you want to fuck, huh?" Anko asked, "That was nasty, if I wasn't as limber as I am that could have done some real bad damage."

She was talking about how he ended the fight. It wasn't anything special or anything, he just grabbed her by the neck and throttled her before lifting her up by it and slamming her into the ground.

Anko wasn't Orochimaru's former apprentice for nothing though and only ended up with a stiff and sore neck, where as most others would have probably gotten whiplash at least.

Daiki pulled his gaze up from the depths of her short skirt and shrugged as he met her eyes, "What can I say? I'm a big believer in true gender equality," he smirked, "Besides, I would have healed you if you got hurt bad anyway."

"The fuck is gender equality?" she raised an eyebrow at him before shrugging, "Actually, never mind, knowing you it'll be something stupid, hah, gender equality, that's almost funny."

It probably was to her.

'...You're going to poison yourself with dozens of different types of poisons, over and over again aren't you?' Isobu asked, voice deadpan.

'The grind cannot be denied.' Daiki replied.

And that was all. He would neither confirm nor deny that question.

But yes he most likely was probably going to do something along those lines, though he'd definitely need some help with it.

"So," Anko broke him from his thoughts and looked him dead in the eye, "Beyond the real nasty stuff that would hurt me using, I showed you pretty much what that slimy bastard taught me."

That was for sure.

More or less.

She didn't summon Manda for instance, which she could do. But then, he didn't exactly hold that against her. Manda was a pain in the ass. Strong as all fuck, gargantuan and honestly, really cool looking.

But, personable and a team player, he was not.

God he was so lucky his chameleon summoners were such chill peeps.

"I'll need to watch out for that freaky substitution." Daiki mused. At one point, he'd broken out the lightning armour for a test during the fight and took Anko by surprise.

He gave her a hell of a beating in the process and thought he had ended the fight then and there.

Only for her to literally shed her own skin.

He hadn't known she could do that.

Orochimaru's very on variation of the substitution jutsu that he thought only Sasuke and Kabuto had learned in the original timeline.

But apparently Anko knew it as well and it was one of the techniques that went a long way to making Orochimaru as slippery as he was.

And it didn't need something to switch with to be used.

"Probably not, while it isn't massively chakra draining, it costs quite a bit more than your standard substitution," Anko pointed out, she seemingly remembered quite well that the fragment of Orochimaru in her seal had a massively lot less chakra then the original, "So, what do you think?" she asked, getting to the main meat of the discussion right away.
