Jiraiya sat down, excitedly took out his drawing board, and began to paint.

"Hey, don't draw those rude things in front of my shop!"

Akabane's expression changed.

however……

At this point, Jiraiya was just like Tsunade, who was caught up in gambling, and there was no way to dissuade him.

He wrote quickly and drew rapidly; in just a few seconds, the outline of the shape was already roughly sketched on the paper.

"Don't disturb me, I'm bursting with inspiration, my brain is trembling!"

Jiraiya was extremely excited, and his pen moved with surprising steadiness, drawing graceful lines.

In terms of painting skills alone, he made rapid progress.

however……

However, the content of the paintings gradually developed in an unhealthy direction.

At this moment, many people who came out of the store gathered around to watch.

Just as Akabane was about to stop him, he heard a familiar cough.

"Jiraiya, there's a limit to your antics."

Third generation?

What a coincidence!

Akabane looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a suspicious gaze—if there weren't so many people, he definitely wouldn't have stopped it!

Chapter 74 "First" Cosplayer

"Drawing something like this in public is just too much..."

"He's still a student of the Third Generation Master!"

"What a shame."

Upon seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi appear, the onlookers immediately began shouting and cursing, clearly trying to distance themselves from him.

"What's wrong with drawing this? It's art!"

Jiraiya blushed, and then began to use incomprehensible terms such as "natural beauty" and "human art."

"Jiraiya, why aren't you training yet!"

"is teacher."

Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi, Jiraiya could only dejectedly put away his tools.

"Having goals and determination is a good thing, but it's important to put them into practice."

Hiruzen Sarutobi patiently preached.

"I understand, teacher."

Jiraiya hung his head, his face filled with remorse.

"Go train. If you don't train, you won't be able to keep up with Orochimaru and Tsunade."

"How could I possibly be inferior to Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya immediately exploded upon hearing this, retorting defiantly, "I'm going to Mount Myōboku to continue my training later!"

"Oh? There's a Chunin Exam in ten days. You need to be confident that you can prove yourself in the exam."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said.

"I will definitely surpass Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya was indignant and left after picking up the manga and the first draft.

"How naive she is!"

Akabane sighed, somewhat speechless.

The Third Hokage knew Jiraiya too well; a little provocation was enough to send him off to train and strive for improvement.

"Just like Naruto, isn't it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled softly as he smoked, then looked at Akabane and the fourth volume of the manga.

He hasn't checked the update yet, but the Uchiha clan hasn't caused any more trouble since yesterday. The Third Hokage doesn't know what happened in between, but he thinks they've reached a consensus and he doesn't need to worry about it anymore.

So he picked up the manga, just to see what Akabane had drawn.

Although I saw some things through the telescope, it was still too far away to see clearly.

"Hmm... fainting after just a few ninjutsu techniques, wouldn't that be too embarrassing for the Hatake clan?"

A few seconds later, he suddenly blurted out this sentence.

"This is the price of power!"

"Haha, I just said it offhand, don't worry about it."

Hiruzen Sarutobi continued flipping through the pages, then paused on a particular page. Akabane glanced at it; it was the page where Haku appeared.

Ah, this master and apprentice pair...

He seemed to sense Akabane's gaze, coughed lightly, and reached into his purse.

Ok?

The third generation's face stiffened, and he withdrew his hand to push the pipe back.

"Teacher, if you don't have any money, I'll give you this book."

Akabane smiled lightly.

"Ahem... You still have to pay. I'll have someone send you a hundred taels later."

Hiruzen Sarutobi blushed.

Because it was a shadow clone, I didn't have much money on me when I went out. I just habitually reached into my pockets when I remembered this.

Then, he lifted his pipe to indicate that he was leaving.

"Teacher, walk slowly."

Akabane bowed to see them off. After the third generation left, a few people came out of the shop.

They watched the Third Hokage's departing figure, then exclaimed in astonishment, "Even the Hokage likes manga! I never expected that!"

"Of course, I send every volume of my manga to the Hokage for review first."

Akabane looked smug.

However, these people reminded him that next time he should add a line to his advertising slogan—"A manga that even Naruto likes."

No problem!

"Boss, ten comic books, please."

Just then, a voice came from outside the door, and everyone immediately turned to look.

A haughty demeanor, the symbol of a round fan.

Akabane glanced at him a few times, feeling that the person looked familiar, and that they had even fought before, but he couldn't remember what the person's name was.

The other person glanced at him, then nervously looked away, pretending not to have seen him.

"Uchiha Ryo, alright, here are your ten manga."

Kurama Yunlang enthusiastically took ten books from the bookshelf, stacked them in a pile, and then handed them to the other person.

Upon hearing the name, Akabane remembered.

This guy even came to cause trouble when the comic shop opened, but he was persuaded by me to change his ways.

Sure enough, I've fallen in love with comics now.

"Give me a few copies of the first three volumes as well."

Uchiha Ryo spoke more hurriedly and turned his body to the side, as if afraid of seeing Akabane.

Actually, Akabane is very familiar with this expression.

Most otaku would probably have this expression when they run into an acquaintance on the street, including Akabane in his past life.

"Alright, ten copies each, right? Coming right away!"

"Ah."

Uchiha Ryo responded and then threw four thousand taels on the table.

Kurama Unro laughed even more heartily, and his movements became much quicker—he bought ten copies of all four books in one go. The Uchiha family is indeed rich!

However, Uchiha Ryo's outfit looks a bit strange...

Akabane looked at him suspiciously from the side.

correct!

Black hair, blue shirt, white pants...

Aside from being held back a grade, which resulted in not having any protection, he was almost no different from Uchiha Sasuke.

So she's a cosplayer!

Akabane was shocked and felt a surge of respect for Uchiha Ryo.

"Here are your ten comic sets."

Anma Yunlang stacked the rest together, wrapped them in cloth, and rolled them up into a large pile.

so much?

Uchiha Ling was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth, picked up the package, and headed towards the Uchiha clan's residence, pretending to be relaxed.

"Yunlang, does he come every time?"

Akabane asked curiously.

"Yes, I've been coming here every time there's an update."

Kurama Yunlang replied.

"When did he start wearing this outfit?"

"Oh, you mean clothes? It seems like it was like this a few days ago."

Kurama Unro recalled for a moment before speaking.

"A few days ago, it really was a cosplayer!"

Akabane sighed, then a thought struck him.

If more people in Konoha love manga, maybe we can hold a manga convention.

"Young master, what is a cosplayer?"

Kurama Yunlang asked curiously.

"They are people who particularly love comics."

Akabane gave a rough explanation, while secretly pondering it in his heart.

The more I think about it, the more feasible it seems. Ninjas themselves know transformation techniques, so their cosplay abilities are definitely top-notch.

"Once the War Country ends, we can try to carry out this kind of activity."

Holding a comic convention in the Naruto world sounds exciting to Akabane, but it also seems like a lot of trouble.

As the organizer, there's so much to do, and most importantly, there are still eight more episodes of the Land of Waves storyline to go!

"Never mind... Yunlang, I'm going back. You take a look here, and if you have some free time, calculate the profit sharing from the factory."

Akabane waved his hand.

After a day or two of hard work, I finally managed to finish the fifth volume. I need to give myself a break.

"Young Master, leave everything to me."
