"Well, not exactly." ^^ "It's for all ages. You should enjoy a bowl."

"My pupil is quite fond of a ramen bar named Ichiraku. I must admit- they do make a delicious bowl."

Old man? Hm... Well, you might have a point. I suppose I am getting... "older". That's about as correct as you get though, Gai- my favorite books keep me feeling pretty spry. ^^

Hm. I don't know. 🎶 I'm not exactly feeling the effort right now, Gai! [He's just egging him on.]

Do you now?

You... certainly put in the effort. ^^

You sound almost like a priest, Gai... 💧 Chanting the mysteries of your dynamic lifestyle.

💧

(He is squeezing those lemons in Kakashi's eyes later-.)

That was quite the technique. [Setting a hand on his shoulder. Giving it a firm pat.] Not even Sasuke was prepared for that one, was he?

It's been fun, Gai- but well, you see, when life gives you lemons... [BOMF! 💨 He disappeared.]

Don't get ahead of yourself, Naruto. ☺️ There's still much to learn.

‎ even kakashi sensei is proud of me! i’m the coolest! ‎

(That Naruto ... he's always got a trick up his sleeve.) ☺️

[Now they were getting somewhere. Kakashi patted him on the head.] I hate to have to do this to you, Gai- but... I really must be going now. ☺️ [TOMF! 💨 A ninja dog appeared in front of him, and landed on Gai's face. Then it started tinkling-]

Sigh. These two will never learn...

(That masked fellow... He wears strange robes. I should keep an eye on him in case he's a threat. Upon first look, he seems harmless, but I can tell- he's concealing his chakra, and a large amount of it too. Be careful, Sasuke.)

My, my. Is bullying children the new wave? 💧 I'm... afraid I've forgotten my surfboard.

Hm. It seems I'm late.

[Hm...? And she had a secret daughter all along...?] [Kakashi glanced up from his book. They were heading there fast. He looked back down at his passage.] Gai, you really should watch out for small children.

[So she used the kiss as a distraction... to break up with him? This story is so good.] ... [TOMF! 🪵💨 Kakashi slapped a tree branch, but substituted into a tree log.] 💧

[Hanging on. Opening his book, and leaning his elbow on Gai's head.] Hm... Now where was I?

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀「 𝐆𝐎𝐃 𝐈𝐒 𝐀 𝐖𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍 」

[TOMF! 🪵 💨 Substitution Jutsu! Kakashi appeared on top of Gai's shoulders, legs wrapped around him! It was like they were playing a game of chicken!] You might have to do better than that to defeat me. ☺️

[No way. Not this time!] [Kakashi weaved a hand sign. Suddenly, a plush of a scarecrow appeared before Gai, holding a protein drink. It also happened to be wearing Gai's signature green jumpsuit. And the wind blew it into his face-]

-Go. [And he's off-! Moving so quickly it's as if he's teleporting! Jumping from sign to sign.]

Itachi. Apologies for Sasuke. He's a bit... broken up about things. 💧

[Pocketing his book. He may as well pretend to be invested...] On your mark then, Gai. Try not to lose too hard.

Race? ❓❔❓ [Looking up from his book. Well, if he coaxed Gai into a race, then maybe he'd get off his back and let him read his smut...] Hm. You know what, Gai? I think that's a great idea. What's the record now? 147-146?

Hm. [So, she actually didn't accept the love offer. It was a ruse. Kakashi concentrated hard on the text, his eyes scanning with ferocity.] ... That can't be.

[The book is really getting interesting. No way. She kissed him after all that-? Oh, right. Gai.] Lee *is* quite the shinobi, you've done a great job with him... 😮‍💨 Laying it on a bit thick there, don't you think? 2,000 sit-ups is... a lot.

(Uchiha guy...? Really, Gai?)

Moved onto sit-ups, eh..? 💧 [He sounds disinterested. Oh, he's starting to walk forward, book in hand. Is he racing Gai?] This is... um, big news, Gai!

You're looking... fit, as usual. [Reading his book, trying not to pay him any mind!] How many push-ups did you do this time?

Sigh. Hello Gai.

(He ain't lying, tho.)

Now, now, Sasuke. Allow them the fun. It'll keep things more interesting, hm?

(This masked ninja is certainly quite the character. Vulgar.)

Yes, Naruto?
