Chapter 71

Title: Monkey D. Luffy​​

Ten?

Everyone glances at each other, they're a little moved by what Akabane said, but when they hear that only ten people can get a free Illustration, they suddenly become nervous.  

It's because there are 20-30 people currently in the shop and only 10 can get it!

"Don't worry, I will choose randomly, of course…this gentleman will definitely get one today."

Akabane pointed at the man who started to talk first. And then sit down thinking.

What should I paint?

He thought about it for a while, and simply painted something that he hadn't painted before, just to practice his hands.

After a few minutes, the first one is completed.

"Come here, here you go."

Akabane gave the completed illustration to the man who asked him earlier.

After the man saw it, he hesitated, and after a few seconds he couldn't help but ask: "Is this also a character in your manga?"

"Yes it is, but it's not from the manga of Shinobi, but from a new manga I plan to draw. It's a new character. And his name is Monkey D. Luffy."

Akabane replied.

"Monkey D. Luffy? What a strange name and the style of the painting is so bad."

Although he thought that the style of painting is very strange since it's free...

Forget it, it's fine.

Soon, the second and third pictures…

It is difficult for everyone to accept a completely different style of painting from what they always saw. But since it's free, the people who got the poster are still happy to have it.

"Ahh~ it seems I push myself too hard."

Akabane stretched.

Since all ten posters have been distributed, the surrounding villagers quickly dispersed and the shop suddenly became empty of customers.

"Young Master, are you really going to have a new manga?" asked Yunlang who was watching Akaba from inside the store.

"It's for warming up."

Working overtime is tiring enough so how can creating another manga a warm-up? Yunlang though.

What Akaba said made Yunlang speechless. 

Recently, Akabane can't provide new chapters due to his missions, and also the sales channels have not yet rolled out, so if he has that spare time to draw another manga, it is better to draw more chapters of Naruto.

So hearing Akabane's word of warming up, he really didn't understand it.

However, during this period of time of getting along with Akabane, he felt that it was impossible for Akabane to release a new manga shortly.

'Well…unless the Young Master has a breakthrough and can maintain two Shadow Clone jobs at the same time.' Yunlang thought.

------

Akabane returned home with his tools and entering the manor, he saw Kurama Isamu bandaging the little loli in the house. And he was surprised!

"I'm back?"

"Why is she hurt? did someone bully her?."

Akabane frowned seeing how blood oozing from little lolita wounds. He walked over and picked bondage to help her.

"No one bullied her, it's your Dad's fault. He wants to teach her how to use Kunai, but Tomiko accidentally scratched herself with its edge."

Keiko poked her head out of the kitchen after hearing Akabane and said angrily. 

"It's not Godfather's fault, it's me who asked to be taught."

Little Lolita has initially accepted the identity of being part of the Kurama family as their daughter, so seeing Kurama Isamu training, she immediately asked to be also trained.

"Ah, I'm not careful this time, so I will pay attention next time…" Akaba's father muttered.

"Did you say next time!?"

Kurama Keiko who was inside the house immediately appeared in front of Kurama Isamu with a scary expression that made him scared to finish his word.

"I won't dare anymore!"

Kurama Isamu decisively surrendered seeing his wife's face.

While the Little Lolita who was watching the show giggled happily seeing it.

Hearing Little Lolita's voice that was like a sound from a bell, the two couples glance at each other, secretly relaxed.

Seeing this scene, Akabane chuckled lightly.

After that, he looked towards the translucent panel, and what he saw made him stand there like a statue from shock.

Because the total price of the Uzumaki Physique suddenly dropped by 1 point when he just touches the Little Lolita blood!

This is sufficient proof that Uzumaki Clan's blood can lower the price for the system!

But… his happiness becomes short live.

After testing it for one more time, he found out that only the perception ability dropped by one point.

Is it because Tomiko have a perception ability?

Akabane secretly sighed and put the bondage that has blood back. 

Even if the blood of the Little Lolita is drained, I am afraid it will not drop too many points.

If he can get Uzumaki Mito's blood, he may be able to significantly reduce a lot of points needed for the physique.

After all, Uzumaki Mito's strength and physique development level is the strongest in Uzumaki Clan, and her real quality is not comparable to that of the Little Loli who young.

However, it is still better than nothing since it's still a less point.

"Now I have more than 400 points on hand, and I can get some points next, plus the fourth book will definitely make up a thousand for one."

Akabane put the tool aside, then sat on the table and pondered.

Little Loli's hands are bandaged, and now she is quietly reading the second volume of the manga, after arriving at Konoha, she is more interested in manga.

Similar to her, there are children who live in Senju Clan.

These children with the Uzumaki surname are now assigned to the few remaining families in Senju Clan, but every afternoon, they will gather in Uzumaki Mito courtyard.

Of course…

It is not for training Ninjutsu or Taijutsu, but for the whole group to read manga together. 

For example now.

"Grandma, I have finished reading the second volume. Are you going to read the third volume today?"

"Zhennan, although you have finished reading it first, but many children have not finished it yet, so I'm going to read the third volume this afternoon."

Uzumaki Mito said gently and calmly.

"But…"

"You are a team, understand?"

Hearing her words, Zhennan Uzumaki held back what he was about to say.

After that, the manga book was published, and everyone quietly began to read the manga.

After reading for a long time, one of the children asked: "Mother-in-law, why is Sakura grade so good, but she is worse than Naruto in battle?"

"Yes, Naruto at least tried, but she kept on…"

When someone started, the others who were also listening couldn't help but also complain about their views on the plot.

"Her control ability and theory are good, but she didn't have the Willpower to fight. She didn't even know why she fought."

Uzumaki Mito lightly explained.

"Willpower to fight?"

As a group of children, they do not understand what this means. They all looked towards Uzumaki Mito, hoping she could answer.

"People always have goals in fighting. For example, everyone in the Hidden Uzumaki Village is fighting for our clansman and also for the country."

Uzumaki Mito said.

"Grandma means that Sakura has no goals for fighting?"

Someone asked looking thoughtful.

"Yes, she probably only sees the little boy in her eyes."

Uzumaki Mito sighed.

Although this is a manga, such scenes also do exist in reality, and they are not that rare.

"It turns out to be that …then what about you, grandma?"

"Me?"

Uzumaki Mito leaned on her rocking chair with a look of recollections on her face.

"If there is such an opportunity, it may be for the Uzumaki Clan and Senju Clan, or maybe for Konoha."

But she knew very well that the chances of it happening are almost nill.

As Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, her strength is very strong, but also because her strength is too strong, once she leaves, she will agonize the attention of other Ninja Village.

"Children, you have to become stronger, but at the same time you have to understand why you are fighting."

Uzumaki Mito said resolutely, "Don't let negative things affect yourself."

There is no doubt about the physique of the Uzumaki Clans being strong, and the ten children that are here on Konoha must be selected very carefully. These children will definitely become ninja in the future, but the Uzumaki Clan…

Thinking about the future made her heart heavy, she knows that the Uzumaki Clan will face disaster but she can't do anything about it. 

How many of these children will live in the shadow of hatred if news one day reaches their ears?

But it's for the future, right now the children who didn't know anything were calling out about their dreams.

"Becoming one of the Guardian family!"

"Become an expert!"

"I want to be like Naruto, to become Hokage!"

"Idiot, we belong to Uzumaki Clan."

Everyone quarreled about their dreams and seeing it Uzumaki Mito cover her mouth and smile gently, and the gloom in her heart was swept away by everyone's smile.

"Okay, everyone has finished reading the second book, now you can read the third book."
