My girlfriend is Kusunoko Saiki

The main reason is that these two people actually came here in their usual casual clothes.

Well, it’s okay to wear casual clothes. After all, these two are just children, so we don’t have to worry about these things.

If possible, Naoto would also like to follow the example of these two and come here in casual clothes.

But no matter what, these two should dress up a little, especially the tallest one, whose hairstyle is almost like a mess.

At this time, Tsuchiya and Akito still didn't know what Naoto was laughing at. It can only be said that the two of them had no idea about these things and thought it was just a simple party.

But it was indeed a little too early for Naoto to laugh now. After all, they didn't know at this moment that there was an even more outrageous guy waiting for them inside.

"Teacher ONE! You are finally here!"

When Naoto and the others gathered and were about to enter the venue, before they entered the door, they saw Mr. Yuankouchi from the previous training camp, who ran towards Naoto.

Since the last training camp, this person has become a super fan of Zhiren. His fanaticism is almost on the same level as that of a celebrity's crazy fans.

Look, Naoto hasn't arrived yet, but this guy is actually waiting at the entrance of the venue. It's really outrageous.

In Yuankou's eyes, Naoto is the benefactor who helped him regain confidence. In addition, Naoto's careful guidance during the training camp, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a mentor.

But Naoto couldn't stand this enthusiastic guy. After all, someone older than him was so enthusiastic towards him, Naoto really couldn't stand it.

"Wait, Mr. Yuankou, what are you wearing?"

At this time, Akito and Kouhou looked at Mr. Yuankou in front of them with eyes like old men on the subway.

Although the person is still the same person, I always feel that this outfit is getting more and more eye-catching the more I look at it.

"Ah? Are you talking about this? This is the cosplay costume of my comic's protagonist Xiang Xiang-chan."

When Naoto and the others heard this guy say such words without changing his expression, they felt like a TBT was suddenly stuffed into their heads.

Although, in this kind of banquet, you can also see other authors wearing their characters' costumes and participating in the form of cosplay.

But... Mr. Yuankou, all your works are about girls selling their bodies. You are wearing women's clothes!

This cute outfit, coupled with a weight of over 180 pounds, made Naoto feel as if his eyes were filled with pepper spray.

"Mr. Yuankou! Didn't we agree that you can't come here wearing clothes like this?"

At this moment, editor Sasahara, with a panicked look on his face, ran out hurriedly with a set of clothes in his hand, and took Mr. Yuanguchi away in no time.

I can only say that it’s a good thing that editor Sasahara is here, otherwise, Naoto and others can’t guarantee that they won’t vomit it out later.

"Eh? ONE-sensei, Ajo Mumenye-sensei? You guys are here already? I just saw Editor Sasahara leaving with someone, what's going on?"

At this time, the new wife, who had already arrived, was walking towards the crowd with a glass of non-alcoholic champagne in hand, looking puzzled.

Looking at Eiji Nijima's signature warm-up underwear set, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this outfit is still full of flaws, it is at least much better than other people's eye-catching cosplay costumes.

All I can say is that abnormal clothing seems particularly normal in front of more outrageous people.

"Oh, come to think of it, the outfit that Yuankou-sensei wore just now was really nice. How about I wear one next year?"

Just when everyone thought that Nizuma was not crazy, Nizuma Eiji actually looked in the direction where Mr. Yuankouchi left, thought carefully, and seemed to want to imitate him.

"No! New wife, calm down!"

Seeing that Nizuma was about to get angry, Naoto and Tsuchiya quickly stopped him.

When I thought about how if my new wife also went crazy and cosplayed the heroine of my work, I would be doomed.

The most important thing is that this person will definitely drag them along.

I don't want to follow this person and play this kind of tricks!

Chapter 93: A Star-studded Night (Part 2)

"There are so many cartoonists here, Naoto-san, do you know any of them?"

"Uh, Supreme, to be honest, we are from the same class. How can I know someone you don't even know?"

"But Naoto-san, aren't you the most powerful person in JUMP right now?"

"I may be the most powerful, but that doesn't mean I know any seniors."

Standing in the corner of the venue at this time, four people with social phobia, including Nan Zi, were looking at the crowd around them, feeling a little at a loss.

Compared to the new wife who was a social nerd, they really didn't know how to get along with these people, so they had to stay in the corner and started eating.

At least, the stuff in here is really good.

In fact, during the observation process, we also found that those who always gathered together with a large group of people and had a good chat were generally not cartoonists. Usually these people were editors or publishers talking to each other.

As for the real cartoonists, there are only a few who gather together, and most of the others have no intention of talking.

In fact, this kind of thing is actually normal. After all, 80% of cartoonists are socially anxious and otaku. It is a bit too much to expect such people to have many friends.

It's already very good to have a few people I can talk to in the venue.

In fact, even for Takami and his friends, it was many years after they became cartoonists before they had such a group of friends. Now, Takami and his friends are still complete newcomers in the venue and no one knows them at all.

Just when a few people were thinking that it would be a waste not to come and at least concentrate on cooking, Naoto suddenly saw an acquaintance walking in from outside.

And this acquaintance also saw Naoto as soon as he came in.

"Hey, Naoto-kun, long time no see!"

"Teacher Kubo! You're here too."

The stylish man walking towards the crowd at this time was none other than Mr. Kubo, who had provided great help to everyone during the summer vacation.

"Of course. After all, I am a frequent visitor here. Oh, by the way, I forgot to congratulate you. The animation was a success. By the way, the last volume will be released tomorrow."

"Yes, it's tomorrow. By the way, Mr. Kubo, are you here alone today?"

At this time, Naoto noticed that there seemed to be no one else around Mr. Kubo. Could it be that Mr. Kubo came alone today?

Logically speaking, for an old hand like Kubo, he should bring a few people with him. After all, Naoto reads many authors who come together as a team, and Kubo-sensei has always been quite popular.

"Ah, well, I actually came here with Sorachi-sensei, but he's at the door with a senior right now. Oh, he's already come in."

"what?"

At this time, Naoto followed Mr. Kubo's gaze and saw two people walking towards the door, talking and laughing.

"Hey, Naoto, Takahiro, Akito, let me introduce you to this guy, Sorachi-sensei. I'm sure you've all heard of him. He's a very famous guy."

At this time, Mr. Kubo pulled over a fat man who looked a little plump and a little humorous.

"Sorachi-sensei? Sorachi the gorilla?"

After Nan Zi recited the so-called Sorachi, he casually mentioned the gorilla behind him.

Well, to be honest, this face does look somewhat similar to the gorilla in the cartoon.

The one in front of me is actually the legendary Sorachi gorilla? !

"You are actually Sorachi-sensei!? The creator of Gintama?!"

When Naoto saw the gorilla Sorachi in front of him, he immediately looked like he had seen his idol.

If I were to name Naoto's favorite writers in the JUMP series, I think Sorachi and Kubo would be among them.

The Gintama he created is a model of whole life.

And unlike ordinary comedy comics, the connotation of Gintama covered by humor is what everyone talks about.

Thinking back, after Naoto watched the Gintama anime, he spent about half a month to finish reading the Gintama manga and benefited a lot from it.

As a long comic that started in 04 and ended in , after Death and Fire were completed, Udon Police Station also ended. Basically, JUMP at that time was supported by the sea and Gintama.

I can only say that Mr. Sorachi is really amazing. He is one of Naoto's idol comic writers.

"Hey, Mr. Kubo, you are embarrassing me. I am not a famous cartoonist. I am the weakest among all of us. This must be the famous ONE recently. I am Sorachi. Please give me your guidance."

When everyone saw Gorilla Sorachi speaking to them in a very humorous way, they felt relieved. After all, Gorilla Sorachi was so famous, and everyone's previous impression of Gorilla Sorachi was mostly from the gorilla in the comics. They thought he was a person who wasn't good at speaking, but they didn't expect that he would be a nice guy in the end.

By the way, the popular Japanese magazine "daVinci" publishes a regular project "booking of the year" every year. The project announces the ranking of the most popular cartoonists of the year, divided into male and female sections. In the male ranking in 2012, Sorachi Hideaki ranked fifth, and the top four were Oda Eiichiro, Inoue Takehiko, Togashi Yoshihiro, and Araki Hirohiko. It can be seen how charming this man is.

"Ahem, it seems that I am indeed getting old. Young people nowadays have become so powerful."

At this time, the man who came in with Sorachi Gorilla, who looked to be about 45 or 46 years old, spoke with some emotion.

When he saw the other person's face, Naoto always felt that it looked strangely familiar.

"Ha, Mr. Araki, what are you talking about? You said you are old, so what should we do?"

At this time, after hearing the words of the great god, Sorachi Gorilla said with a wry smile.

It was only at this time that everyone realized that the senior whom even Mr. Kubo respected so much was actually the so-called old demon Araki.

Well, this is indeed a heavyweight player. Speaking of which, Naoto almost forgot that he is actually a cartoonist from the JUMP series.

Unexpectedly, at this banquet, Naoto actually got to know all of his idol cartoonists at once in one night. Naoto was really surprised, but also a little at a loss.

Facing these top cartoonists, Naoto is just like a silly kid.

Chapter 94: Overlapping Shadows

To be honest, for an old senior who can basically be called Naoto's grandfather, you really can't tell that he is actually in his sixties.

Among all the cartoonists present, there were probably not many who were more experienced than this man. With such a senior present, Naoto and others immediately became the focus of everyone at the banquet.

It has to be said that with the guidance of their predecessors, Naoto and others were finally no longer embarrassed.

When facing writers you don’t know, you can now know their true identities.

Many writers are also happy to know Naoto, the rising star. After all, in JUMP, other cartoonists are not just opponents, but also partners and helpers.

In fact, the friendship between cartoonists can be quite strong sometimes. After all, cartoonists don’t have the concept of colleagues, and those who keep in touch are basically just friends.

Think about the original story, where Yadou was forced by the agency to voice the crow, and it was the little angel who tuned it for him, so that everything was finally safe.

If there weren't a group of writers helping each other, if something really happened, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find anyone.

And knowing a big boss is the most important thing in making friends. Who doesn’t want to know the most powerful person in the comics industry and become friends with him?

It was also because of this that Naoto, under the guidance of several seniors, experienced the feeling of being the center of attention.

Seeing Naoto surrounded by a group of big guys, Takato and Akito couldn't help but show envious expressions.

After all, even though they attended the banquet, in the eyes of others, these two were still a pair of newcomers, or even could only be called a pair of newcomers with some potential.

Not to mention comparing with a guy like Naoto, he's not even as good as the crazy Eiji Niizuma standing next to him.

Faced with this situation, the two of them naively vowed to themselves that they would become people like Naoto in the future.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the JUMP year-end party held by Shueisha on this cold night. I am Sasaki, the host of the party."

When everyone started talking and laughing, it was finally time for the party to begin.

The host of the banquet this time was actually JUMP's editor-in-chief, Mr. Sasaki.

JUMP's dinner party, like other company dinner parties, will have many small games and raffles, and one of the items is something that many cartoonists are looking forward to.

That is this year's JUMP annual selection of the best writer and the best work of the year.

In fact, this is similar to other companies' annual best employee.

But for cartoonists, this is actually an honor.

However, everyone already knows what the best work of the year will be.

After all, this year, Bloodline's performance was so impressive that, not to mention the writers who followed Naoto into battle, even the writers from other publishing houses had been overwhelmed.

Of course, apart from the fact that Naoto has now completed the vampire clan, everything else is perfect.

But that doesn't matter much.

After all, comics are all about sales.

Even if Fujimoto had already finished the first part of Chainsaw Man, it still couldn't stop Chainsaw Man from being adapted into an animation, right?

Although the Vampire Clan manga has been completed, the series is still being updated and its popularity is unparalleled. Basically, no one thinks that their work this year can compete with such a powerful actor.

To put it bluntly, this banquet might even be Naoto's personal banquet. Judging from Naoto's achievements this year, he can stole the show by himself.

In the weekly magazines, the vampires defeated the entire comics industry, and in the monthly magazines, the Chinese Cuisine Chapter was even called the Chinese Food Guide by the audience, which directly promoted the development of Chinese cuisine in the whole of Tokyo and even Neon.

To outsiders, this person is just like a walking disciple of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, totally unstoppable. As a group of small fry, it is better not to join the fun with the gods. Have some dignity.
