Anton Brotherhood

Chapter 7 Challenge and Battle

“How dare you talk to me like that.” The teacher felt that his dignity was challenged, exasperated, and

shouted, his hands still waving in the air.

Anton looked at the angry middle-aged man in front of him. He felt restless. Anton pointed at him, “You

are nobody to me! You'd better not mess with me, otherwise, you will regret.” After that, he sat in his

seat.

“You.” The teacher wanted to say something, but at the sight of Anton's furious look, he said nothing in

the end. He didn't want to admit that he was intimidated by a new student, but his shivering legs

betrayed him.

He remembered Anton's name in his heart, and then continued to call students’ names. Jasper looked

back and asked Anton, “Anton, we just put up with it?” Anton squinted, “There will be more

opportunities to take revenge later.” Then he was prepared to sleep on the table.

Over the several days, for some reason Anton felt like he had slept so much recently. He used to wake

up at 4:30, and now he didn’t want to get up until 6:00. If others interrupted his sleep, he would be

fretful.

After finishing calling names, the teacher elected class cadres. Of course, although Anton's grades

made him the best one here, he left a bad impression on the teacher, so he wasn’t elected. But the

teacher did not know that Anton was very satisfied with the result. At last, the cadres were asked to

fetch the new books. After the new books were distributed, the teacher said, “Now you are dismissed,

remember to come to school tomorrow at seven. We will begin our class at eight. Everyone should be

punctual.” After saying that, he went out of the classroom, considering how to find fault with Anton.

Anton and Jasper walked out of the classroom, and their fellows in the same class also followed. There

were some people in the hallway, all wearing uniforms of N0.1 High School. Seeing Anton and Jasper,

a student whose face was swollen pointed at them, and said to the person next to him, “Carroll, it was

them.”

Anton gazed at him, and it turned out he was the person who was hit hard by Jasper called Steve in the

morning. Anton was a little surprised that he could still walk after such a hard hitting, which showed his

tenacity. Jasper also recognized him, “What now?”

The student who was called Carroll came over and looked at Jasper, “Bro, you are new here. But the

first thing you do is to hit one of my fellows. I can't do anything about this.” This man called Carroll had

a height of above meter eighty and looked really strong.

“So what do you want? “Jasper didn’t dare to look down on Carroll because he didn’t know whether he

could win or not in the battle against him.

Carroll nodded, “Meet me in the woods behind the playground and we will find a solution.” After that, he

turned around and left. Steve limped behind him turned to Jasper as he walked, “You'd better get the

stretcher ready. Whoever is a loser if he doesn’t dare to come.”

“Fuck you. You are so arrogant just because there are several people supporting you. I will teach you a

lesson later. “

At this time Bruce also came, and he asked Anton, “Anton, what happened?”

Anton did not speak yet, and Jasper answered, “The two persons who were hit by us in the shed this

morning had come, and they asked us to go to the small woods behind the playground to solve the

problem.”

Hearing this, Bruce rubbed his hands and said, “Anton, we haven't done a big job for a long time. Now

it is a great opportunity.”

Anton nodded. It seemed that it was impossible not to be involved in the battle if he wanted to find his

feet there. After all, this was No.1 High School, which was like a concentration camp for bad teenagers.

“Bruce, go and get all our men. I have a plan.” Bruce immediately put into action.

The small woods were not large. It was behind the playground, and there was rubbish everywhere.

School leaders wouldn’t come to such a place at all. It was a gathering place for school bums. It was an

area where students battled. The dried blood on the ground still loomed.

Anton and Jasper walked into the woods, and there were more than a dozen fellows behind them.

Carroll leading a group of people waited there, holding weapons in their hands. The two sides came to

the middle of the woods and looked at each other. Anton looked at Carroll and spoke first, “What’s your

position in our school?”

Carroll smiled, “Who are you? How dare you talk to me like that.”

Jasper gave Anton a cigarette and said, “This is Anton, our boss.”

Carroll looked at Anton, “I don’t know who you are and I don't care where you are from. The boss of

No.1 High School is Boss White. Since you come here, you have to obey our rules. If you want to be

the boss here, you have to prove your own ability. Today let’s talk about the thing that you hit my man.”

Jasper lit his cigarette and said, “I don't know who Boss White is.” Anton stopped Jasper and said, “We

did hit him. What do you want? It is our own business to find our feet here. You shouldn’t interfere.”

Carroll, “OK, you have guts. Let's say what are you going to do to compensate us? “

Jasper said, “Fuck you, who do you think you are? You are so arrogant.”

Carroll snickered, “Fat pig. You are so complacent, but later I'll teach you a good lesson.”

Jasper untied his coat and raised his sleeves, “Come on. I’d like to see how you teach me a lesson.”

Knowing that a fight was inevitable, Anton stared at Carroll and said, “A conflict cannot be avoidable. I

wanted to avoid, but today you made me have no choice.” After speaking, without a hint of warning, he

raised his leg and banged his knee hard on Carroll's belly. Carroll did not think he would so soon start,

so he was hit hard, bending because of the pain. Anton pressed Carroll's head, and then padded his

face with his knee.

Carroll was also experienced in fighting. He quickly reacted, using his arm to prevent Anton's attack.

Seeing that his knee was not working, Anton swung his elbow against Carroll’s back. Human elbows

were the hardest parts of the body. Anton used all his strength to attack Carroll. Carroll couldn’t stand

because he felt the immense pain of his back, falling to the ground. Carroll’s complacence led to his

failure. He was hit to the ground before he could fight back. Anton knew that he should not treat the

enemy with mercy, so he tried his best to attack. Now he was like a beast and regarded Carroll as an

animal. He hit Carroll’s head to the ground, causing the latter to bleed and blurry.

When Anton rushed to Carroll, Jasper also acted. He rushed to Carroll’s men and his followers also

took out their sticks. Jasper saw Steve, “Bustard, let me teach you a good lesson.”

Steve was standing behind the crowd and saw Jasper running toward him from a distance. He was

scared and wanted to run away. But Jasper gave Steve no chance, he immediately hit him to the

ground. He still left him a little mercy when he hit him in the morning, but this time he was very different.

He used all his strength to hit Steve. Others were also fighting fiercely in the battle. At this time, there

were more than 30 men coming in from outside, holding the sticks that had just been removed from the

chairs. They joined in the battle without any warning. The leader was a tall man, with fancy hair and

loose clothes. It was Bruce.

For a time in the woods, there was a burst of painful crying and howls. Students in the schoolyard had

been acquainted with this and paid no attention. They continued to chatter or play balls, not being

influenced at all. But the woods were like hell on earth. Students with broken bones fell on the ground

howling while other students who were even standing and covered in the blood continue to attack

enemies in their sight. This was a struggle between the newcomers and the original dominant power.

Anton stood up, with his hands covered with blood. There was still a little bit of blood on his face.

Carroll on the ground had passed out. Anton rubbed the blood on his face, bent over and grabbed the

fainted Carroll's hair, pulling him up.

“Stop,” Anton shouted. His volume was louder than Jasper’s. Hearing this, the students stopped to look

at Anton. All were startled, because the person standing there was not like a human but a devil. The

blood on Anton's face made him seem greatly ferocious. No one could tell the blood was Anton’s own

or someone else's. He lifted Carroll up. It was also hard to tell that whether Carroll was dead or alive.

Anton was like a demon who just came out of hell.

“Help! “Two of Carroll’s men yelled. They wanted to run out of the woods, but were stopped by Anton’s

men, who kicked them greatly. Then they were dragged back and thrown on the ground. The rest of

Carroll’s men were dumbfounded.

Anton sneered, “Nobody can leave today.” Hearing this, some people have already sat on the ground

crying while others also had no ambition to continue this battle. Anton was much more satisfied with the

result. He just wanted to scare them. “You can either choose to be like him,” Anton lifted Carroll's body.

“or to follow me. It’s all your choice.”

Looking at the greatly injured Carroll, the ferocious Anton and dozens of Anton’s men who were staring

at them, some people threw away their weapons and said loudly, “Anton, I'm with you!” There were still

more than a dozen students who were loyal to Carroll standing in a dilemma. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Anton smiled, and said, “Well, I don't want to embarrass you. Take all your injured people away

including him.” He pushed Carroll's body forward, and then say, “You go back and tell your boss that it

is I who beat Carroll, and I will shoulder all the responsibilities. If you want to take revenge, then

remember my name Anton.” Seeing these people listen clearly, he said, “You can go now. I will let you

go this time, and don't blame me for not reminding you if we become enemies again next time.”

These people looked at Anton and realized he was not joking. After saying a “thank you”, they brought

away the injured people. But they would never forget what Anton did today, which would be

remembered throughout their lives.

Seeing them all go far away, Anton said to his men, “You take the injured to the hospital, Hurry up.

Bruce, you can go.”

Bruce agreed and asked several men to get the injured men out of the woods. After considering for a

while, Anton said to Bruce, “Look for Carl behind the hospital. He has money.”

Bruce said loudly in a distance, “Anton, I got it.” Then he hurried to the school gate.

Jasper came over and smiled at Anton, “Anton, this time we made a huge success. I hit three of them

fierce. But you hit them much harder. Carroll was nearly dead.”

Anton was amused when he saw Jasper whose clothes were shabby and covered in blood. On his face

there was a mix of sweat and dirt. He was just like a beggar. Anton took out a handkerchief from his

pocket and handed it to Jasper, saying, “Wipe your face.”

Jasper was embarrassed to take the handkerchief and wiped his face. But he murmured in his heart,

“Your face is not much cleaner than me. “

Anton said to those who had just said they would follow him, “I know you were forced, but since you

have followed me, I will treat you as my own men. Also, I hope you will not do anything sorry to me,

otherwise you will know the consequences. You know exactly what I mean. Now I give you another

chance to make a choice. I welcome those who choose to stay, and those who are unwilling to stay can

leave now.”

Some of these men were conquered by Anton's resolution, and some were indeed forced to do so.

Hearing Anton’s words, they were in a dilemma. Seeing this, Anton said loudly, “Follow me and I will

protect you. I will punish those who dare to bully you no matter who he is. What I did today is a

remarkable example. I give you my promise.”

Hearing this, these people bowed to Anton at the same time without any hesitation, “I would like to

follow you. If I betray you, then I will be punished by god.”

Anton smiled and said to his old followers, “Remember that these people will be our own men from now

on. You should take care of each other.” Fate was so hard to be predicted. Those enemies now

became their own men just because of Anton.

One of them said to Anton, “Anton, I think you are really capable, but Boss White is not an ordinary

person. You just beat her men and this problem cannot be solved easily.”

Anton looked at the man and asked, “What's your name?” “Anton, my name is Albert. I'm from Class 2,

Senior Grade 2.”

Anton nodded and asked him, “Can you tell me some basic conditions about our school?”

Albert thought about it and said, “Our school had two powers before you came. One was led by Boss

White, and the other was Black Dragon Gang led by Vincent.” Anton interrupted him and asked, “Who

is Vincent? What is Black Dragon Gang?”

Albert said, “Vincent is a senior student. He was also the first person who established his power. Many

of the students in senior grade 3 are his people. But soon after, Boss White came with some of the

villains in the neighborhood, and soon established her own power. The two sides fought for countless

times, and the most serious one was a battle that more two hundred students were involved in, causing

three deaths and many injuries.”

“Why did the school do nothing? “Anton said.

Albert said, “The school will not do anything. The principal said that these students were scum of

society and didn’t deserve to be alive.”

Jasper asked loudly, “Causing deaths is not a trivial matter. Shouldn’t the principal resign even if not

sentenced?”
