I'm drawing manga in Naruto

If that's the case, what reason is there to turn them away?

The three generations of disciples were all disciples of Tobirama Senju, and their ideas were largely the same, but there were also subtle differences.

He wouldn't mind involving the Uchiha clan in the village's management if they could be trusted.

Of course, forget about becoming Hokage.

“My lord, it’s no use telling me this. You should say this to the Uchiha.”

Akabane stood up.

After the main event, everything that followed was predictable, so there wasn't much to see.

The third generation took a puff of his cigarette but did not answer.

He believed that Uchiha Genkai understood his meaning—if he had disagreed, he would have intervened long ago to maintain the stability of the village.

However, seeing Akabane's actions, he tapped the table with his pipe and said, "Where are you going?"

"Go back."

After Akabane finished answering, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

This situation...

Are we going to be conscripted?

"sit down."

The third generation pointed to the area in front.

Akabane felt a pang of regret; it seemed he was about to ruin himself just to watch the spectacle.

He sat down at the table and waited for the three generations to continue speaking.

"I heard from Danzo that Root has been handed over to you for command?"

"Yes, but I haven't taken over yet."

Akabane quickly explained, lest the matter fall on his own shoulders.

The Third Hokage narrowed his eyes slightly, then sighed helplessly and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I wouldn't dare entrust such an important matter to a brat like you."

"Yes, yes, please continue."

Akabane nodded quickly.

"Not only the Uchiha need to be prepared tonight, but we also need to prepare our manpower in case anyone escapes..."

The third generation stopped there, but the meaning behind their words couldn't be clearer.

Anyone who escapes the area will be killed without mercy!

"Do you want me to..."

"You will participate in the defense tonight, using illusion magic to assist others."

The Third Hokage took out a map of Konoha and marked the locations of iconic buildings such as the Hokage Building, the Uchiha clan, and the Forest of Death. He also drew all the escape or attack routes of the Uchiha clan.

The different colors of the lines likely represent the probability that the Uchiha clan will follow this path.

It's quite comprehensive!

not only that.

Based on Akabane's understanding of the age of ink marks and drawings, this drawing is at least a year old.

Based on the timeline, this image likely already existed when Tobirama Senju and Kagami Uchiha died in battle.

Those old bastards, not one of them is a good person.

Akabane thought to himself.

The Third Hokage glanced at him, seemingly guessing what he was thinking, and explained, "The map was made by the Second Hokage; this is a copy."

"I understand, please continue."

Akabane made a gesture, "Anyway, the Second Hokage has already gone to the Immortal Mountain to sell dried tofu. I can't possibly resurrect him with Edo Tensei and ask him anything. Whatever you say goes."

The third generation remained silent for a moment, then spread out the blueprints and pointed to a red route.

"You'll guard this path with the others, and when you see anyone escape..."

"I see!"

Akabane took a deep breath.

The entire perimeter of Konoha was covered by a dense net, so that not only a living person, but even an insect would have to ask the Aburame clan for permission to crawl out.

"Alright, go and get some rest."

The third generation waved their hands, finished explaining the matter, and said that keeping this lazybones around was just an eyesore.

It would be better to let Akabane go back now to recover his strength and work hard tonight.

On his way back to the comic book store, Akabane was still thinking about what happened tonight. The Uchiha who were leaving were definitely doomed, and he wasn't going to pity them.

Instead, he was thinking about how to profit from it.

Judging from the physical tests of the Vortex clan, the blood of those with bloodline limits can indeed bring a certain reduction in points.

If I could get the Uchiha's eyes, I might be able to get a great deal on Sharingan.

of course……

He has to consider the costs involved.

If the price for the discount is to make those eyes disappear directly, then you can't make a move.

What a treasure trove!

Akabane sighed softly, and before he knew it, he was back at the shop.

"The Uchiha clan was wiped out?"

"The plot is too exciting, the Uchiha gang is probably going to explode."

"Boss, you'd better run away quickly, or the guards will come and tear your shop down."

As soon as he arrived outside the shop, he heard many people discussing something, and quite a few of them were half admonishing and half joking with Anma Yunlang.

Akabane turned the corner and saw the people talking.

Most of these people were ordinary people or genin from Konoha, and they had great respect for the guards.

What is the role of the security detail?

To put it nicely, they are protecting the villagers of Konoha and ensuring Konoha's stability and peace; to put it bluntly, they are Konoha's version of the urban management army.

If what was seen through the telescope technique is true, and Uchiha Genkai couldn't control himself, a group of people came out to "teach him a lesson," the result might be exactly what these villagers are saying: the stall was overturned.

Akabane hesitated, wondering if they should go out with so many people.

What if I get chased by celebrities when I go out...?

The troubles of being a celebrity!

He thought for a moment and finally went out. However, it was different from what he had imagined. When the villagers who had been gathered in front of the shop saw Akabane, they all ran away in a flash.

This is very embarrassing.

Akabane raised his hand and left it in mid-air. Then he stiffly touched his hair and walked to the shop in a nonchalant manner.

"Young Master, you're back?"

Kurama Yunlang was a little embarrassed. He pointed in the direction the group had fled and explained, "They were just chatting casually, don't take it to heart."

"It's nothing, comics are comics, don't take it too personally."

Akabane said it casually.

He then looked around warily and asked in a low voice, "Has Jiraiya been here before?"

Kurama Unro didn't answer, but instead carefully pointed inside the house—a "child" was inside, holding a comic book and seemingly walking around casually.

After a period of training, Jiraiya's transformation technique became quite proficient.

But appearances can change, but temperament cannot be hidden.

That guy kept glancing at the intimate desert scene in the corner, looking extremely interested but too afraid to look openly—in short, he was incredibly lewd.

Farewell!

Upon seeing Jiraiya, Akabane turned to leave.

Jiraiya couldn't keep up the act any longer and immediately jumped out of the house, saying, "Akabane, why did you put my manga in the corner!"

"First of all, this was Yunlang's idea. Secondly, the store layout was Yunlang's responsibility, not mine. Finally... your comics have actually been sold; in fact, someone has already bought them."

Akabane's words stunned Kurama Unro.

His idea?

Wasn't it Akabane who gave the order?

People are sitting in the shop when pots fall from the sky.

He opened his mouth, his mind racing with thoughts, but in the end he didn't dare to tell the truth and could only silently take the blame for his boss.

Jiraiya angrily said, "Brother Yunlang, you said you couldn't make the decision, but you were lying to me all along!"

“Your painting is too unique. Considering the store’s image, I have to make some adjustments.”

Kurama Yunlang said, forcing himself to speak.

Jiraiya was almost in tears. He had come to the store full of enthusiasm, hoping to see if he could sell his manga, but after searching the entire store, he finally spotted that lonely manga in the corner—

The worst part is that the cover is facing down!

“Jiraiya, what Yunlang said makes sense, but I can make the decision to add a few more spots for you.”

As Akabane spoke, he gave Kurama Unro a wink.

Kurama Yunlang wanted to cry, but he could only follow Akabane's advice and silently took out three copies of "Icha Icha Desert" from below.

Akabane then placed the three books next to the one that had been there before.

"Three times more than before, isn't that noticeable?"

Akabane pointed to the corner.

Jiraiya looked at the four books from the outside and immediately spotted them. A happy smile appeared on his face: "Great, great, you're really something."

I used to carry one of these books on my back and put it on the bookshelf. If I didn't know the contents and specifically come to look at it, I would never have seen it.

That's different now.

When the four books are placed together, you can at least immediately see that they are different from the ones around them.

However, in reality, unless you specifically come looking for this book, you would never notice that there is a rather unusual comic book here.

After all, there are just too many books in the comic book store, and this bookshelf is in an inconspicuous location...

"Once your comic print run picks up, I'll clear out the entire bookshelf for you. That's the most I can do. After all, Yunlang usually manages the shop, so I shouldn't be getting involved."

Akabane said righteously.

"Hmm...yeah!"

Jiraiya felt inexplicably that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Anma Yunlang felt bitter inside, but couldn't express his feelings.

Akabane did all the good and bad things by himself, but what can you do when Akabane is your boss?

At that moment, he realized the darkness of the workplace.

However, to be fair, although Akabane restricted the placement of "Icha Icha Desert" in comic book stores, he had other caravans contact him through Izumi Yamano.

The businessmen were very envious and readily agreed, figuring that sales wouldn't be too bad.

Jiraiya didn't care much about money.

For him, selling comics at Akabane Shop gave him a sense of "success and fame".

If it becomes a huge hit, it will prove itself even more.

However, while art paintings may not be banned, it would be quite difficult for them to become mainstream.
