Full-time cartoonist

"Are you thinking about getting married?" Akimiya Akemi repeated in surprise.

"Why should we consider this? Hasn't it already been discussed?"

Dong Yexiang was very embarrassed and wanted to carve out a four-bedroom apartment.

"You...you woman really don't understand romance!"

He shouted angrily and hid back in the room.

"It's really inexplicable," Akimiya Akemi looked at Higashino Hibiki's back and shook her head.

"But... about the marriage... hehe."

She giggled.

…

On Monday, Takasugi Kazuya got up early and rushed to the supermarket near the school.

It's past 8 o'clock in the morning, which is the time when people are most tired and listless of the day.

However, he found that many people walked into the supermarket with great interest, and those who came out also held jumps in their hands and their eyes were shining.

""One Piece" has been serialized into "The Scheming Crow"! His conspiracy is about to be exposed! The climax of Usopp's chapter is coming! "

It was clearly early in the morning, but Takasugi Kazuya heard quite exciting words.

Jump's work "One Piece" is so exciting. Newcomer manga artist Eiichiro Oda's imagination runs wild. Readers can't wait to see the latest chapter of "One Piece".

The charm of Usopp, a timid man, also shines through.

This chapter is really interesting!

"Mr. Oda is worthy of being a student of Mr. Tori Akino. The story is passionate and touching."

There is also "Hunter".

"Toshi Togashi's new comic is so interesting! It's so imaginative."

After Xiaojie and the others passed the test of the old lady's quiz and the World of Warcraft, they finally entered the official venue of the hunter exam.

The hunter's world gradually unfolds, with marathons, inferiority complexes, extremes, traps, and more interesting stories that are simply hard to put down.

"Jump is so great now. Interesting comics come one after another. It's almost a blowout period. That's why everyone is so excited, but..."

Takasugi Kazuya stepped into the supermarket, "The most important thing is, "Slam Dunk"!"

Everyone's goal is more on "Slam Dunk"!

…

The Kanagawa High School Basketball League has entered the finals.

Hainan easily eliminated Buri, and it was the turn of Lingnan and Xiangbei.

Therefore, countless people are looking forward to this.

"This jumping mood seems to be back to when I watched the friendly match between Xiangbei and Lingnan."

I can't wait, my heart is surging.

"Total 230 yen."

Looking at "Weekly Shōnen Jump", the salesperson showed an expression that was true and said to Takasugi Kazuya.

After paying and leaving the supermarket, Takasugi Kazuya sat down on a bench in a nearby park.

His hands trembled slightly and he opened the jump.

After coach Anzai fell ill, the players in Shohoku unexpectedly had fighting spirit.

Mitsui loves Anxi deeply and must bring the trophy to coach Anxi.

Sakuragi Hanamichi thinks the same way. He is training hard now, hoping to become an instant success.

When it came time for the official competition, Lingnan’s coach Shigeichi Taoka had mixed emotions.

A third-year player from Shohoku, shooting guard and "Flaming Man" Hisashi Mitsui who is good at three-point shooting;

Second-year player Miyagi Ryota. Although he is not tall, he is extremely flexible, has good ball-handling skills and extremely fast speed. His jumping ability is also amazing. He is the initiator of Shohoku's offense.

First-year Rukawa Kaede is even more amazing, with comprehensive and gorgeous skills. He performed outstandingly in the games against Xiangyang and Hainan. When Xiangbei faced adversity, he always scored to inspire the audience.

These three players are all coach Tianoka dreams of, and they are his dream team.

But now they are all in Xiangbei and have become their opponents.

But Lingnan is not bad either.

Second-year Sendō was always at a disadvantage against Mu Shen; captain Jun Uozumi was 202 centimeters tall and huge, and was Takenori Akagi's main opponent; and Fukuda, whose offensive ability was comparable to Sendō, was the scorer in the team.

The two teams are of equal strength. When facing Hainan, they were just one move away from each other. Now they are facing off against each other, and the exciting game is about to begin!

…

The rainy season has passed, and Hibiki can finally put away the noisy dehumidifier.

"This is Oda-san's relic," Hibiki Higashino sighed. "It's proof that he stayed at Tori Akino Studio."

"Oda-san is not dead." Yoshii Sanjiu reminded.

Dongye Xiang rolled his eyes at him, "It's better to die."

Holding the dehumidifier in his arms, Hibiki walked towards the storage room.

"What's going on?" Yoshii Sanjiu was confused.

"Oda-kun's "One Piece" has done very well, and he has won the first place for Komasa several times recently." Tanaka reminded Yoshii.

"So that's it." Yoshii Sanjiu nodded.

In the latest plot of "One Piece", the advanced combat power Hawkeye appears.

During the battle with Hawkeye, Sauron said, "The scars on the back are a swordsman's shame," which instantly gained him countless fans.

After being easily defeated by Hawkeye, he shed tears and signed a pact with Luffy, "I will never lose again. I will never lose until I defeat him and become a great swordsman! Do you have any objections? Pirate King!"

This is the most powerful thing about Eiichiro Oda, who creates the image of a passionate man in the story.

Zoro's defeat did not affect his popularity. Instead, he became the tough guy character that countless men dreamed of becoming.

The popularity of "One Piece" has thus reached a new level.

Xiao Zheng took first place several times in a row.

"As for "Slam Dunk"..." Tanaka shrugged.

In the plot that has been serialized in the past two months, the game between Xiangbei and Lingnan.

They were evenly matched at the beginning, but when Takenori Akagi focused on his injured ankle, the backbone of Shohoku became unreliable.

Therefore, Xiangbei lags behind Lingnan by many points.

In the face of adversity, Rukawa Kaede was also uncharacteristic, scoring only one goal and two points.

He once scored 25 points in the first half of a game against Hainan, but now he is not at his previous level.

It seems that facing Xiandao's defense, he can't use his fists and kicks.

After Akagi recovered, Lingnan targeted Sakuragi, the defensive weakness of Shohoku, and launched an attack with Fukuda as the main attack. They scored consecutively and the point difference widened to more than ten points.

In the most critical game, the players in Xiangbei had a lot of problems. The readers expected to see a battle between dragons and tigers, but they were unilaterally suppressed, which made them very unhappy.

If the readers are unhappy, the results will become mediocre.

The recent positive results of "Slam Dunk" are mostly hovering in third place.

"Higashino-kun too, sometimes he cares a little too much about his grades, hahaha." Yoshii Sankyu said with a smile as he rubbed the back of his head.

Tanaka also laughed unkindly.

At this time, I slowly heard footsteps and closed my mouth at the same time.

However, Higashikata Hibiki still vaguely heard laughter.

"What are you talking bad about me?" Dong Yexiang looked at the two of them suspiciously after he came back.

"I say it's great, teacher."

"Everything you said is right."

The two replied.

"Oda is probably dead."

…

Oda chuckled when he learned that he, Xiaozheng, was in first place again.

When I was in Tori Akino's studio, I was particularly envious of my teacher's achievements, but now I can finally enjoy them.

"After Toriyama-sensei, Toriyama-sensei came, and now it's finally my turn, Oda Eiichiro."

He thought while drawing comics.

"This is the era of Eiichiro Oda!" he thought proudly.

"It's just that Toriyama-sensei's short comic "COWA!" has ended. Without him, I feel very lonely."

The senior bird chef was in tears.

But thinking that as long as he continues to grow, he will one day meet Akira Toriyama, he becomes full of fighting spirit again.

Ignoring the fact that he had gained weight after drawing comics day and night, and his face was covered with acne, the fat boy Eiichiro Oda was immersed in the chapters of "Nami".

…

On the weekend, Oda watched Jump.

"My comics are still so interesting."

Watching "One Piece", Oda feels that even the excessive chapters are still attractive.

Immediately full of confidence.

After that, he watched "Slam Dunk".

In comics.

As always, facing Futian, Sakuragi Hanamichi was helpless.

"When we are defending, we are always anticipating the opponent's next move. Is it passing? Or dribbling? If dribbling, is it left or right? Will there be a fake move? Or will it be a direct shot?"

"Using experience to make certain predictions, and then deciding how to defend. These series of actions all rely on the experience accumulated in daily life."

As for Sakuragi Hanamichi, what he lacks most is experience in playing basketball.

In the first half, Fukuda made several shots on Sakuragi and scored 15 points.

The gap between Xiangbei and Lingnan has also widened to 12 points.

There are only two minutes left before the end of the first half.

In the stadium, the audience was cheering for Lingnan and cheering for Futian.

Sakuragi's defense was weak, his foot slipped, and his head hit the wall hard, bleeding a lot.

"I won this match, Sakuragi."

When Sakuragi fell to the ground, covering the wound on his forehead and looking extremely embarrassed, Fukuda said to him.

Sakuragi ended up, and when Caizi was treating him, he found Sakuragi trembling unwillingly.

When Haruko was concerned about Sakuragi, he was also lying on the ground, saying nothing and clenching his fists.

"Without even a hello, Sakuragi failed completely and has no excuse at all." Mito Yohei said.

On the playing field, Mitsui took Sakuragi's place.

Mitsui is very experienced, and Fukuda's actions have been seen through by Mitsui.

Fukuda's defense was not worth mentioning to Mitsui, who scored consecutive three-pointers.

The arena was filled with cheers for Mitsui from the audience. Sakuragi Hanamichi was silent and trembling.

In the first half of the game, Xiangbei finally stopped widening the gap and fell behind by only six points.

"Tori Akino-sensei didn't directly draw Sakuragi Hanamichi's inner tangle and his pain," Oda looked at the comic with a serious expression. "He only used side effects to make me understand Sakuragi's reluctance."

"I wanted to use my newly learned shot under the basket to shock the audience, surpass the fairy way, and suppress the fish pillar. As a result, I performed like a clown and became a loophole in the team. I can feel his unwillingness. Mr. Tori Akino is here The paintings here are really strong.”

"How will Sakuragi Hanamichi explode?"

"There is also Mitsui Hisashi's three-pointer. The nearly two months of depression in the comic are released here. In the second half, it will definitely attract readers' attention."

"I want to watch "Slam Dunk" right now so much that I want to watch it."

Oda raised his head and took a deep breath, "I underestimated Kantori Akino-sensei."

…

July is here, and Musashino Art University begins its summer vacation.

In the fourth grade, Higashino Hibiki, all the classmates he knew began to rush for the future, but he still lived a normal life at two points and one line.

Now, I don’t even have to go to school and start drawing comics.

"The content that follows is very important, so be sure to draw it well!"

Higashino Hibiki values ​​the Lingnan game more than the Hainan game.

Not only is this plot the climax of "Slam Dunk", but also the current jump is different from the past, and there are many masters.

"Yes." Yoshii nodded.

"Teacher," Tanaka raised his hand, "Do you need me to bring the bedding?"

He thought he could use the air conditioner to save money on air conditioning.

"Then...that's not necessary..."

Higashino Hibiki's stammered words made him disappointed.

"I can't let you affect my evening activities." Hibiki thought to himself.

"Everyone is here except Mr. Akimiya. Let's start drawing comics now." He changed the subject.

"What's wrong with Mr. Akimiya?" Yoshii was curious.

Higashikata replied: "She's gone home and will be back tomorrow."

…

Today is Mr. Akimiya's 60th birthday. He did not celebrate it grandly. He declined his subordinates and only celebrated this day with his daughter.

"Happy birthday to my father!"

Akimiya Akemi is holding a painting, an ink painting she painted, in which a dancing crane is shown.

"Well," Mr. Akimiya looked at the painting. After a while, a smile appeared on his serious face, and he nodded, "Your skills have not declined. I am very satisfied."

He carefully put it away and put it aside, preparing to display it in his office.

Akimiya Akemi breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this time, Mr. Akimiya asked with a straight face: "You are 29 years old this year, right?"

"Is it rude to girls to talk about age?" she asked tentatively.

But seeing Mr. Qiugong's face darken, he immediately sat up, not daring to make a naughty joke.

"Yes, I am 29 years old." Akimiya Akemi nodded in distress.

Before I knew it, five years had passed since I met Tori Akino.

In the past five years, she has remained as energetic as ever, but she is almost 30 years old after all.

"I have never urged you, but you should also consider getting married." Mr. Qiugong said: "I know you have never considered this aspect, but my Qiugong family's family fortune still needs someone to pass it on."

"so……"

"I have a boyfriend." Akimiya Akemi replied after swallowing.

She was a little embarrassed that she had finally reached this point.

Mr. Akimiya's expression did not become happy. He remained silent for a long time without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

For a long time, Mr. Akimiya looked at Akimiya Akemi, closed his eyes and asked: "He... who is he?"

"A painter," Akimiya Akemi said, "a very reputable painter."

Cartoonists are also painters, right?

Thanks to Super Electromagnetic Marking Hanabi Qingyin for the reward.
