I'm drawing manga in Naruto

"..."

Lu Ming was in a bind; he'd forgotten that the guy was also lazy.

After thinking for a moment, he came up with another idea: "I can put it on my chest or waist, anywhere that others don't use often."

"That's one solution, but he hasn't encountered an enemy he can't defeat yet."

Akabane explained.

Shikamaru's lazy yet exceptionally intelligent personality allowed him to accomplish most missions and battles during his time as a genin using his brain and command skills.

In fact, Shikamaru's fastest growth occurred after Asuma's death...

At that time, he truly realized his powerlessness.

"I see. I forgot to consider the impact of personality and overall circumstances."

Lu Ming pondered for a moment, then accepted the answer.

At that moment, his gaze froze.

Based on this thickness, it should be the content of chapter 88.

This chapter contains a lot of exciting information.

Akabane's lips curled into a slight smile.

Lu Ming looked shocked, then took a deep breath and said, "Even though it's just a comic, this kind of plot is too exaggerated!"

He turned the comic over and pointed to a line from Orochimaru: "I wonder if it's fun to take off that old man's head."

"Old things" undoubtedly refers to the third generation.

Remove the head...

That's a lot of information.

“Peaceful villages are peaceful and comfortable, but if they only know peace, they will not know the dangers outside. In the end, they will only be a group of hothouse flowers and will eventually be eliminated by the ninja world.”

"Of course, an overly extreme approach is wrong in itself. Orochimaru in the manga is not exactly a gentleman either, so it's not surprising that he would choose such a method."

"..."

Lu Ming fell silent, somewhat unable to agree.

He didn't speak, but continued flipping through the pages. When he saw the conversation between Orochimaru and Kabuto, he fell into deep thought again.

If peace lasts too long, other ninja villages will grow stronger and stronger. If Konoha continues its peaceful pace, it may eventually be eliminated.

"Both Kabuto and Orochimaru in the manga are very complex people."

Lu Ming sighed for a moment, then closed the book.

The sushi has arrived; we need to eat first.

"Hehe, you two are really alike. Every time you come to my place, the sushi you order and your sitting posture are very similar. If I didn't know that one of you is from the Kurama clan and the other is from the Nara clan, I would suspect that you are brothers."

The shop owner made a friendly joke.

Who wants to be like this lazybones!

Chi Yu and Lu Ming froze slightly, a thought flashing through their minds at the same time, before they quickly changed their sitting posture.

Chapter 189 Excellent people can't hide their talent.

"Cut~"

After changing positions, the two awkwardly discovered that their movements were now over 99% similar.

"Ha ha ha ha."

The boss let out a hearty laugh—how delightful!

"Boss, we're actually nothing alike. I'm just more tired, he's really lazy."

Akabane remained unfazed, his face neither flushed nor his heart skipped a beat.

Anyway, it was common knowledge in Konoha that the Kurama clan was weak and sickly, and the sushi shop owner, being an ordinary person, had no idea that his body was actually as strong as a Jonin.

"cut!"

Lu Ming pouted and stuffed a piece of sushi into his mouth.

He decided not to bother arguing with Akabane; it would be a waste of time and pointless.

The two of them tilted their heads and propped themselves up with one hand.

After finally finishing his meal, Lu Ming opened his comic book and continued reading before the owner could even clean up. The plot here was a bit unexpected, so he read it with particular care and attention.

As for Akabane, he suddenly remembered something.

Yesterday I was so busy with Might Guy that I forgot about the agreement I made with the third generation that he should review the key content first.

Is this considered key information?

"I was too busy yesterday, and my shadow clone didn't remind me... Oh well, I've already patched it, so I'll stay calm and it shouldn't be a big problem."

Akabane hesitated for a moment, then quickly regained his composure.

Since things have come to this point, we can't just destroy all the comics; that would be burying our heads in the sand.

of course……

Most importantly, it's too tiring and I'm too lazy to do it, and it's not very meaningful.

Lu Ming reread the storylines of Orochimaru and Kabuto. These two characters were so complex that he couldn't help but delve deeper into their stories.

After a long pause, he said with some confusion, "According to the real-world context, Orochimaru was the Third Hokage's disciple, so why did he become a rogue ninja? And now he's back in Konoha, starting a war that will ignite Konoha's fighting spirit. What's the point?"

This is what he doesn't understand.

Since you've become a rogue ninja, why are you doing all this unnecessary stuff?

If Konoha continues to slack off and is eventually annexed by other major powers and villages through war, wouldn't that be exactly what the rogue ninjas want to see?

Then there's the pocket.

This character was initially a genin (low-ranking ninja) for seven years, but later it was revealed that his true identity was a spy from the Sound Village.

Things are different now.

Orochimaru was clearly wary of Kabuto, so what was Kabuto's other identity? Could he be a spy sent by Konoha to Orochimaru's side?

Too complicated!

Lu Ming frowned, somewhat confused about the situation between the two.

With so few clues, it's impossible to deduce the true situation of the two based solely on the current plot developments.

"Forget it, thinking about it so much is too tiring. Let's wait and see what happens next."

Lu Ming sighed inwardly.

He then continued scrolling down.

The story returns to the Chunin Exams. After Rock Lee's defeat, the last group quickly finished their match.

Therefore, the list of all participants has now been officially released.

The official competition is a knockout tournament, divided into two groups, but...

"The strength of these two groups is too unbalanced. Putting aside the main characters, Neji, Sasuke and Gaara are the top contenders for the championship. It is simply unfair to put them in the same group."

"There's nothing unfair about it. If you can win, you can still go all the way in this group. If you can't win, it just means you're not good enough to win the championship. Besides, the Chunin Exams aren't about winning the championship; they're about testing a ninja's overall qualities and leadership skills."

Shikamaru had never participated in the Chunin Exams, and although he was intelligent, he lacked understanding of the Chunin Exams system.

Therefore, Lu Ming shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not understand.

If that's the case, what's the point of trying so hard to get first place?

He didn't ask, so Akabane didn't answer, but got up to go back.

Lu Ming picked up the book and started reading the comics as he followed along.

Although the subsequent plot wasn't as exciting as the earlier fights, he was very curious about who would be the one to mentor Naruto...

Kakashi?

No, this guy is called Ebisu.

In terms of the basics, Kakashi really did consider everything very thoroughly.

Lu Ming agreed.

If Naruto could master chakra control techniques, with his physical strength and chakra reserves, he could easily overpower most people using only chakra.

however……

As for Ebisu, is this guy really reliable?

It's not that Shikamaru looks down on special jonin, but this guy has been defeated by the sexy technique several times, which is really not the composure a jonin should have.

Too lame.

Especially the next second, the scene shifts to a bathhouse.

Although Ebisu's words sounded grand and noble, such as "I will never let anyone cross the line," if you want to practice treading water, why not just go to the river?

It's said that the temperature of the hot spring forced Naruto to master it quickly, but he probably had other ideas in mind!

Lu Ming made a malicious speculation.

But the next second, he saw a familiar figure appear in a comic book—

The body shape, hairstyle, and age are all different, but for some reason, the first thing that comes to mind when he sees this character is a person's image.

He quickly walked up, pointed at the sleazy figure, and asked, "Jiraiya?"

"It seems that Jiraiya's sleazy nature is widely acknowledged."

Akabane smiled knowingly.

No matter what form it takes, seeing such a lewd action immediately reminds me of Jiraiya.

Although he may occasionally take the blame for others, he is mostly right.

"Of course, those kinds of comics... Ugh, it's embarrassing to admit, I actually read such vulgar comics. Not only that, but I also saw an elder buy a work by 'Shinnosuke' the other day, that one was truly..."

Even Kaihime knew about it, which surprised Akabane a little, since only ten copies of that manga circulated in Konoha.

Not only that, but he can also calmly reveal the facts he has seen.

This guy, I don't know what to say.

Lu Ming clearly didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, after all—

"Speaking of which, you're Shinnosuke, aren't you?"

"Ok?"

Akabane was slightly taken aback. The art styles and works were completely different, and besides, they were all plagiarized. How could they be related?

"You can't hide it from me. Although the styles are completely different, I know you have a habit of having your shadow clones draw for you. Although each shadow clone has the same memories, personality, etc., the difference in consciousness leads to slight deviations between individuals."

Lu Ming said calmly.

His meaning was clear: Shinnosuke was Akabane, and the short manga was created by the shadow clone.

"Tch~ Let's go back and discuss the job fair."

Akabane didn't deny it; no matter how much you explain to those who maliciously speculate about others, they won't believe you.

After all, in the world today, Akabane is the strongest in the genre of comics, and high-quality comics like this will inevitably make people think of him.

Moreover, the comic was indeed drawn by his shadow clone.

Sigh, people who are too outstanding are like bright lights in the night; they can't hide themselves even if they want to.

Akabane was also troubled by this.

"Speaking of Jiraiya, what has that guy been up to lately? I haven't seen him in ages."

"I went to Mount Myōboku a while ago, which is where those giant toads from the manga are located. Now I'm probably... studying drawing techniques?"

The two chatted as they walked.
