I'm drawing manga in Naruto

As Akabane spoke, he glanced at his waist.

Shinnosuke wore a "fire" character waistband, and his outfit was quite imposing, vaguely resembling Asuma's.

Of course, he is different from Asma.

"I am now a guardian ninja under the daimyo. Besides me, there are some members of the Uzumaki clan and the ninja monks of the Fire Temple."

Shinnosuke waved his waistband and then explained to Akabane.

"good."

Akabane nodded slightly.

There is currently no concept of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, and with the Uzumaki clan's involvement, this concept will likely disappear in the future.

"Hey, don't think I've been slacking off all this time. I've been training hard and I've already reached Jonin level. I'll definitely defeat you this time!"

Shinnosuke was full of confidence.

Akabane stared at him for a few moments with a strange expression before saying, "Are you serious?"

"of course."

"I haven't been cultivating much lately, but... alright."

Although there are still important things to do, defeating Shinnosuke will not take much time now, since I have the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, and the lightning attribute is exactly the counter to the earth attribute.

One minute later.

Shin's assistant was holding a frying pan, his fur charred black, looking extremely miserable. This was only because Akabane had held back; otherwise, he could have been electrocuted to the point of questioning his existence.

His strength is at least at the Jonin level, which is not weak among his peers, but he is still far inferior to Akabane and Sakumo.

"By the way, you happen to be a Guardian Ninja. I need to meet the Daimyo. Could you introduce me to him?"

Akabane said in a low voice.

"Let me tidy up a bit."

Shinnosuke tried to straighten his curly hair, but no matter what he did, he couldn't. Thinking that Akabane must have something important to do, he simply gave up and took Akabane to the Daimyo's residence with his frizzy hair.

On the way, Shinnosuke excitedly talked about his feelings and thoughts while reading the manga, from the Chunin Exams to saving Gaara, and then to chasing Sasuke and fighting the immortal duo...

After being apart for many days, he and Akabane seemed to have endless things to talk about.

Outside the Daimyo Mansion, Shinnosuke leaned over and whispered, "By the way, remember that princess? She really likes your manga, so you'd better keep your distance."

That spoiled princess?

Akabane felt a chill run down his spine at the thought of her.

Although she wasn't bad-looking, she wasn't his type. Even though she was a fan of his, he didn't like sleeping with fans.

Can't afford to provoke...

After hearing this, Akabane gave him a thumbs up, and then readily used the transformation technique to change his appearance so as not to be discovered by the princess.

With his identity as a Konoha ninja and Shinnosuke's guidance, he soon met the Daimyo.

His name is much older than before.

However, he seemed to be in good spirits, lying on the tatami and engrossed in reading comics. Judging from his mental and physical condition, although he said "I'm going to die" last time, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to live for another year or two.

Poor Crown Prince of the Fire Kingdom...

Akabane felt sorry for the fifty-year-old crown prince, but then he thought that compared to the crown prince of the British Empire in his previous life, that guy was actually a little luckier—

He could still become a daimyo at least in his fifties and enjoy the thrill of being a daimyo.

"Kurama Akabane of Konoha Village greets the Daimyo."

"I've always wanted to see you, but unfortunately I haven't had the chance. I didn't expect you to have time to come over this time. Please sit down..."

The daimyo was very approachable and pointed to the spot in front of the couch, indicating that Akabane could sit down there.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Akabane knelt before the couch.

He didn't like this sitting posture, but everyone here sat like this, so he had no choice but to follow local customs when facing a powerful figure.

The daimyo was reading the updates from the Five Kage Summit a few days ago. His energy was limited, and he couldn't maintain a reading state for long, so the time he could watch was very limited.

He stared at Akabane, then said with a nostalgic expression, "Ever since the last anime convention, I've been missing that fantasy game..."

Chapter 337 Greetings, Princess. I am Jiraiya.

A fantasy game?

You're so old, yet you're still so energetic. Does your crown prince know about this?

Akabane silently complained to himself.

If you're at such an advanced age and accidentally get so excited in a fantasy game that you faint, I can't be responsible for that.

and so……

After thinking for a long time, he said, "Sir, even the most strictly controlled illusion games will cause some degree of damage to a person, and your condition may not be suitable."

"People need to be self-disciplined. At my age, I understand this principle."

Daming was filled with emotion.

Although he managed to survive another year, he could feel his health deteriorating day by day, and he knew that his life was nearing its end in the next two or three years.

At this moment, he felt the same way as Ban.

With power in hand, all I regret is not living longer.

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Illusion games won't do, but that kind of... illusion anime, is that what it's called? I can't quite remember. You know, as people get older, their energy isn't what it used to be, and they can't read much printed material..."

The old man spoke in a disjointed manner.

However, he seemed to be quite clear-headed. Although the conversation veered off-topic, it always revolved around comics and fantasy, clearly indicating that he had been thinking about them ever since they last met.

"That's no problem."

Akabane smiled.

The anime that releases illusions consumes far less energy than games. As long as Akabane has enough chakra and patience, he can watch it all day without any problem.

"that would be great."

Daimyo's eyes lit up. He found a comfortable spot to lie down and then signaled Akabane to quickly unleash his power. With Akabane's current skill in illusion and his mental strength, he no longer needed any medium to use illusion on him.

With just a thought or a glance, the illusion is activated.

The genjutsu content continues the storyline that the Daimyo didn't see—the aftermath of the Five Kage Summit, and the Sasuke vs. Danzo segment.

The feel of anime is quite different from that of regular comics.

The manga has some plot points that readers need to imagine and fill in the gaps themselves. For most people, the manga may offer more room for imagination and imagination, but for someone of Daimyo's age, anime is obviously more suitable.

After a short while, his breathing became steady and peaceful.

In the illusion, he sat in a private studio, watching the "anime" following the Five Shadows Conference, appearing relaxed and content.

Akabane didn't disturb them. After releasing the illusion, he stopped observing and sat quietly to the side waiting.

Shinnosuke was stunned.

After observing for a long time, he quietly asked, "You're looking for Da Ming just for this?"

"of course not."

Akabane glanced at him for a second or two, his eyes filled with disdain.

Little did he know that the daimyo was preoccupied with his anime. He had come specifically to discuss the village and the war with him. However, upon further reflection, he had a vague feeling that something was amiss.

The war has been going on for so long...

The daimyo isn't truly indifferent to affairs; how could he not know about the war? Why would he need to come all the way here to contact him?

It's a bit strange.

Just as I was pondering this, a series of chaotic footsteps came from outside the door.

Akabane immediately released his senses and instantly transformed into Jiraiya's appearance.

She's a spoiled princess.

Shinnosuke secretly gave Akabane a thumbs up in his heart. His reaction and perception were truly worthy of Akabane!

The next second, a voice came from outside: "Grandpa, I heard that Jonin Akabane is here..."

"Greetings, Princess. I am Jiraiya."

Akabane smiled slightly.

"What? It's you..."

The princess's face was filled with disgust and aversion, but upon closer inspection, her eyes were bright and piercing, as if sparkling with light. Clearly, her true feelings weren't as disliked as they appeared; on the contrary…

What girl doesn't have a child?

Not only Akabane, but even Shinnosuke, who was secretly observing, was shocked. Who would have thought that this spoiled princess was so unrestrained and even involved in intimate activities?

The princess appeared disdainful, but she wasn't actually disgusted. Shinnosuke was there, so she didn't suspect anything when she saw the daimyo fall asleep. She sat down beside him and excitedly discussed the matter.

Akabane's face darkened.

That was a mistake. We should have changed Orochimaru; that would have saved us a lot of trouble.

Now...

I cast an illusion spell to create a "Jiraiya" to play and chat with her, and then manipulated her to leave the room.

"Okay, let's go."

Akabane left behind a shadow clone, controlled his chakra, and gestured for Shinnosuke to follow.

Don't stay here for long!

Is it really okay to fool people like this?

Shinnosuke followed them out of the daimyo's mansion and couldn't help but voice his concerns.

"I originally went to discuss with the daimyo the upcoming full-scale war in the Land of Rivers, but just looking at the daimyo's expression..."

Akabane stopped mid-sentence and didn't continue the conversation.

It was obvious that he had been fooled by Danzo. This was not a visit to discuss matters between Konoha and Sunagakure. It was more likely that Danzo knew that the Daimyo and the princess had been talking about him for a long time, and since he was in Kyoto, he had him come along to keep them company.

This is something that can be done or not.

However, his teacher occasionally has a wicked sense of humor, especially recently he has been badly mocked in the comics, and in the end he even dies together with the bridge, which is completely disgraceful.

Given his temperament, he'll definitely retaliate in a small way.

of course.

Danzo wasn't actually that narrow-minded, but he was particularly "petty" when he was with Akabane.

To deal with a stingy and lazy person, you have to spur them on in the same way. Danzo was well aware of this.

The two left Daming Prefecture.

Shinnosuke abandoned any thought of competing with Akabane, took Akabane to the Uzumaki clan's territory, and never mentioned fighting again. Upon returning to the clan's territory, Akabane met the "Fusang" that Shinnosuke had mentioned.

He was three or four years older than him and Shinnosuke, around seventeen or eighteen years old.

Her attire made her appear more like an ordinary person, without any ninja tools on her person. However, judging from her senses, this woman possessed extremely high talent and a very high purity of the Uzumaki bloodline.

Around her waist was a piece of cloth with the character "fire" on it.

Shinnosuke mentioned to him that Fusō originally didn't like ninjutsu or training. It wasn't until he fled to the Land of Fire that Fusō gradually began training in chakra and ninjutsu after being persuaded by Shinnosuke.

But a genius is a genius.

She quickly caught up and reached the level of a Chunin. Thanks to this talent, she was selected as a Guardian Ninja.

Speaking of...

Nagato's mother was named Fusang.

Akabane observed secretly.
