I'm drawing manga in Naruto

Akabane smiled brightly.

"Ahem, I can't accept this."

"It's alright. Besides, since the toads like comics so much, I'd be happy to send a few more sets. Mr. Yamano just delivered the latest update, so you can take it with you to show the little toads."

Akabane was very hospitable, offering gifts and favors.

The hermit Fukasaku jumped off his recliner and said very warily, "You have already signed the contract with the Baku, so don't try anything with our Mount Myōboku."

"Not at all, it's just a small token of my appreciation."

Akabane dispelled the illusion and then led Fukasaku the hermit out of the house. To prevent his parents from making a fuss about seeing the toad, he deliberately left through the window.

Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the man and the toad emerge, and hurriedly came out of the woods to greet them.

Today, Izumi Kou Yamano is bringing you episodes 91 to 95 of Naruto, as well as the next five episodes of One Piece.

Aside from these, there's also a volume about Hashirama's goofy daily life.

Yes, Mito Uzumaki's debut work has finally been released.

Including these and some previous updates, Akabane packed five sets in one go, as a personal gift to Fukasaku the sage.

The hermit was ashamed, but he accepted the gift honestly and did not refuse it.

Even Jiraiya felt somewhat ashamed about this.

Despite being an immortal, he wouldn't even pay...

He really wanted to pay for it, but five complete sets of comics would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, which was all he had at the moment, not to mention that he had already spent money to buy two sets before.

"Well, kid, although you're quite cunning, you've done a really good job. So, I'll give you a little reward."

Fukasaku, perched on Jiraiya's shoulder, said calmly, "There are many forms of illusion, and sound can also be used to create illusions. For example, my Mount Myōboku has a frog croaking illusion. If you can develop a way to create illusions using sound, your illusion skills will reach a higher level."

"Thank you for your guidance, Immortal."

We already knew this...

Even so, I still had to express my gratitude verbally.

Akabane thanked him, and Jiraiya took the comics and used a summoning jutsu to return to Mount Myōboku.

The comics I brought back might bring in a lot of points. Also, in the latest update, the Nine-Tails has officially made its debut, along with—

Gamabunta!

Chapter 201 Comic Plot: Illusion

"Wow~~ Brother Wen is so handsome, and he's so big!"

"Wow, even the eldest brother made an appearance?"

"..."

Some little toads jumped over the front and snatched the latest update to watch. The most attractive thing for them in this chapter was Gamabunta.

As soon as they heard the name Bunta, many toads gathered around.

So handsome!

Bunta is the leader of these toads, and he is the strongest in both strength and presence.

Seeing that Bunta in the manga was even stronger than in real life, they were incredibly envious.

"Watch this, the psychic technique!"

A small toad jumped onto the sleeping Gamabunta, its two forelimbs forming a hand seal, and then, just like in a manga, quickly patted Gamabunta's back.

"Idiot, no..."

"It's over!"

Everyone was shocked.

This little toad ate swan meat and actually floated down to provoke the sleeping Bunta.

It patted him, and Bunta woke up groggily.

It didn't know what had happened; it only knew that it felt like its back had been patted, and then it woke up from its sleep.

"who is it……"

His voice was deep, tinged with anger.

"Look, I summoned Gamabunta just like Naruto."

The little toad was unaware of the danger and was still excited and smug.

The group of toads covered their faces.

Wen Tai was very angry, and the consequences were severe.

next second...

"You idiot, who told you to take pictures of me while I'm sleeping? I'm going to beat you to death."

Its angry roar echoed throughout Mount Myoboku.

Jiraiya, who was training with the sage Fukasaku in the distance, was completely bewildered. What was going on with Gamabunta's roar? He hadn't provoked it.

Fukasaku glanced at the manga and calmly said, "Mind your own business first; your mind is in turmoil again."

"Yes!"

Jiraiya quickly composed himself and managed to sit firmly on the stone slab again.

The immortal, Fukasaku, lay on the stone pillar.

Having gotten used to the swaying chairs in the illusion, I'm really not used to this hard stone.

"I wonder when that kid will be able to finish... Oh well, I'll continue reading the comics."

It pulled out the next book.

Comic book drawing is not easy, but reading it is really fast. I read a third of Naruto in less than an hour.

but……

Fortunately, there are still many.

Fukasaku looked at the manga next to him that was even taller than him and felt a sense of satisfaction.

"Although I don't know why the Great Toad Master dreamed about that brat, the comic is really good. It was so enjoyable to read it all in one go."

If Mount Myōboku weren't so special, it would have even wanted Kurama Akabane to open a comic book shop on the mountain.

However, even if it were to open, Mount Myoboku wouldn't have the money to pay them.

Taking a free comic once is embarrassing enough; to then ask someone to sponsor a shop is just too much.

It seems that trade is the only option left.

Fukasaku pondered what he could trade with humans to obtain more manga.

Insect cuisine?

I'll talk to that kid about it later.

……

The recruitment process at the main gate of Konoha is almost over.

"Tch, that guy never came back in the end, leaving us to clean up the mess. He's such a lazy bum."

I thought Akabane was only going to be gone for a short while, but I didn't see him all afternoon.

The key is--

The remaining shadow clones didn't seem very motivated either; although they weren't slacking off, they did very little.

It really is a shadow clone, almost identical to the original.

Lu Ming sighed softly.

"Hey, Akabane, you have to treat us when we get back. I haven't settled the score with you for making Hayate die so miserably in your last update."

Night Dance returned exhausted.

He was in charge of recruiting practical training instructors, which was the most difficult and tiring job. By the end of the day, he was exhausted.

"That's a matter of the main body, but I think he doesn't care about money, like treating someone to a meal or something."

The shadow clone remained calm, as if these matters had nothing to do with him.

"Tch, forget about eating, I need to go back and cultivate."

Ye Wu handed the documents to Lu Ming and said, "Here are everyone's information. The rest is up to you."

"Ok."

In terms of data analysis, his ability is indeed stronger than others, and having Lu Ming participate in the job fair was precisely for this purpose.

Gradually, all the materials were handed over.

A thick stack.

This is still the result after screening. If it were all the original data, Lu Ming would probably work himself to death and still not be able to finish organizing it.

"Thank you all for your hard work today. It looks like it's all over now."

At that moment, Akabane arrived.

He timed it perfectly and only rushed over when he felt it was about time.

Lu Ming glanced at it and listlessly organized the documents.

"I'll treat everyone to dinner tonight, and once the preparatory work begins, I'll give you some extra perks."

Akabane said.

"I'll skip the meal. Just join the preparatory department later, and don't be so ruthless towards us. I'll be very grateful."

The group of genin had absolutely no interest in eating.

Although barbecue and other such dishes are delicious, without the necessary skills, who knows what the future holds when you enter the preparatory department?

It would be too embarrassing to be surpassed by the genin who graduated this year.

"Yes, I have to go back too. I don't know what's going on with Iwamaru without me taking care of him all day."

Inuzuka Ishi stretched.

Although they are all doing errand work, they are still quite tired after a day.

The group didn't linger and quickly dispersed, leaving only Shikamei, Yoru, Shinnosuke, and Akabane.

"There are quite a few strong Chunin today, many of whom have been on the battlefield. I can't make a specific selection based on that alone; it's up to you to discuss it."

Ye Wu raised her knife, the meaning of which was self-evident.

I haven't finished my training for today, so I need to go back and make up for it. I won't stay here any longer.

"Thank you."

Akabane bowed in thanks.

Although the labor was obtained through silent steps, Night Dance wouldn't have been so dedicated if she weren't a friend.

Yewu waved and vanished in an instant.

"Akabane, you haven't come to see me in a long time. You even have to go through Father's mouth to ask me to do something for you. Are you afraid that I will create a new weapon and beat you up?"

Shinnosuke looked smug and pulled out a strange weapon from his waist.

Yes, it is indeed a frying pan.

Its appearance is quite simple and unadorned, without any fancy patterns, but judging from the materials and workmanship, it is a very powerful chakra weapon.

Lu Ming's eyes widened in shock. "The Third Hokage actually let you do whatever you want, turning such precious materials into... a pot!"

"It's not just a simple pot!"

Shinnosuke was furious. They were all like that, completely failing to understand his brilliant idea.

Chakra infusion.
