Chapter 81
Title: Comic Exhibition
Tsunade is flipping through the book pretending to be nonchalant, but in fact, her attention is all on Jiraiya's face.
'Your elder sister? Heh~ ' she sneer in her mind while attentively looking at Jiraiya's face for fear of missing his expression.
"Haku in cute clothes and she is also so kind-hearted, Ahhh…I love her!"
Jiraiya completely entered the role of a reader, completely immersed in his own fantasy, even if there was a tigress in his side.
Akabane glanced at Tsunade, then looked at Jiraiya with a pity in his eyes, and silently prayed a tribute to him.
And it didn't disappoint them, since after waiting for a few seconds, a loud exclamation was heard.
"Huh?!!!"
Jiraiya, who had a face full of yearning earlier, becomes completely pale after reading the next page.
In just one second, Jiraiya's expression has undergone a triple change.
Stunned, Terrified, and lastly in doubt about his life.
The dream he had was suddenly ruined when he found out his Elder sister's gender.
At this moment, his expression is exactly like the Third Hokage earlier, if they said that they were father and son, no one will doubt it.
"ha ha ha ha!"
Tsunade who witnessed how fast Jiraiya's expression changed in a second couldn't hold it anymore and burst into laughter with tears in the corner of her eyes.
After a while, Jiraiya, whose face was quite ugly from the exposure, suddenly laughed and said with a suspicious expression on his face: "This is obviously a female character!"
"Haku is definitely a guy."
Akabane sighed and said the finishing blow.
When he first saw Manga and Anime, he also had this feeling, because of this he wanted to draw it as it is.
"no, no! This is not true…my work, my work!"
Jiraiya almost cried hearing the author's assurance.
"Your work?"
Kurama Yunlang who was also watching couldn't help but ask. He is a little curious, but at the same time confused and thought 'What does it have to do with your work if Haku is a guy?'
"You don't understand."
Jiraiya replied angrily then hung his head down, clearly in a low spirit. His earlier boastful character completely disappeared, and said to himself dejectedly, "There are so many toads on Mount Myoboku that will make someone crazy, but thanks to Miss Haku, I can hold on for so many days without going crazy. B-but now…..Waaaa!"
He is really crying?
Akabane's face was stunned seeing Jiraiya really cry, this kind of training on Mount Myoboku, what the hell did he experience!
"Jiraiya, what about your works?"
Tsunade asked carefully, afraid of hurting his feelings again.
Since she first met Jiraiya, it was the first time she saw him so sad and crying so distraught that made her feel sorry for him.
"It doesn't matter anymore."
Jiraiya said, then he took a picture out of his arms and spread it out in a low spirit.
'Is it that kind of painting?' Akabane though. Knowing Jiraiya, only that kind of drawing will he paint for sure.
Akabane's face is indifferent, but his eyes glanced secretly.
F***… It turned out to be just Haku wearing a yukata with a shy face.
"Heh! I didn't expect you, Jiraiya, to be also interested in a guy who looks shy on the outside."
Tsunade ridiculed mercilessly, her sympathy towards him immediately faded like smoke.
"Nonsense! She is female, female!"
Jiraiya yelled a few times defending his masterpiece but then got dejected once again knowing what Tsuna said was true.
He picked up his comic book and planned to leave, he even ignored the scattered poster he won earlier.
Tsunade was secretly happy when she saw it.
When he is gone, she can pick it up by herself…
After walking a dozen steps away, Tsunade approached the posters on the ground and planned to pick it up but she saw Jiraiya suddenly wake up from his gloomy state and turn around.
And seeing Tsunade Jiraiya immediately come back to life and said angrily.
"My poster! Damn airport, you dare to steal my poster!"
Jiraiya ran back angrily, then he picked up the poster on the ground, and then turned back again and left in a depressed mood.
Tsunade was stunned and didn't react due to suddenness and forgot to punch him.
It's just when she saw Jiraiya disappeared, she reacted with a wave of incompetent anger.
After that, Tsunade sat down and said suspiciously: "Why did he suddenly remember it again?"
"He didn't remember it, he just sensed your movement."
Akabane sighed.
Tsunade was annoyed after hearing it. Who would have thought that the guy walked so slowly that it took him a dozen seconds.
With a sigh, she picked up a new manga book.
Anyway, there are several children in the family, so buying more for a ticket is fine, maybe she will be lucky.
"No."
"No…"
"Still no!"
After a few draws, she collapsed on her stool. She now doubts her life like Jiraiya earlier.
They buy the same book, so why is Jiraiya so lucky?
"No, I don't believe in fate!" Tsunade stubbornly said.l
Tsunade clenched her teeth, and took out her last savings, but…
"The last volume of the Land-of-Waves is coming these few days, do you really want to continue?"
Akabane helplessly said seeing how she planned to draw again.
During this period of time, Tsunade did not take any missions. The money she earned before was basically spent on buying more Comics for her to draw in his shop. He was sure that she didn't have much money on hand.
Tsunade hurriedly glanced at her wallet, and suddenly fell into a struggle.
Her money is really running out.
"Princess Tsunade, you shouldn't buy it anymore."
Kurama Yunlang feels a little distressed seeing how desperate Tsuna is, he already knows her luck so he tries to persuade her.
As Tsunade Hime, her, winning a poster is really hard to achieve if nothing major happened.
"No, at worst, I will catch a cat or carry water to earn."
Tsunade replied stubbornly, then she turned around and entered the manga shop.
Akabane shook his head, this girl is really hard to persuade if it comes to gambling. But Tsunade right now plays it more safely, unlike her usual style where she buys ten comics at the same time.
She took a single copy like how Jiraiya did earlier, instead of ten.
After ten seconds, she once again comes inside the shop and picked a comic on the shelf.
One book, two books…
"Arrrrg! Why can't I get it!." she angrily shouted.
There was no major event in this period of time so it's impossible for Tsunade to get it unless Akabane's influence on the plot had reached the point where the Third Hokage or Mito died like in the story.
Sure enough.
Tsunade, after emptying her wallet, still didn't get even a single poster. She lay on the stool trying to cry but without tears.
"Young Master, shouldn't we give her a p
consolation prize with how much money she spent?"
Kurama Yunlang feels a little distressed.
She is still the Princess of the Senju clan, so seeing her miserable state, he tried to appeal to his boss.
"No, it will be a lesson for her."
Akabane said mercilessly, and tried to incite her " Now that you don't have money anymore, you should catch a dog or pick water and help on farming to earn more as you said earlier."
"I don't want to catch the dog, that hateful dog!"
When she heard Akaba mention the dog, Tsunade suddenly exploded, like a tigress who got her cub stolen.
Since that dog is not an ordinary dog. It is a Ninja dog that a wealthy businessman bought from the Inuzuka Clan for a lot of money and favors. So finding it is especially difficult.
Akabane ignored her irritation and changed the topic and asked about the children. "By the way, are the little kids living in Senju Clan okay?"
"They are okay, grandma gathers them together to read comics every once in a while, Then talks about the comics plots."
Tsunade replied with a clearly not a good mood.
Although they live in Senju Clan, the children of the Uzumaki Clan are all thinking about their home.
In case Hidden Uzumaki Village is really…
She can't imagine the scene after those children heard the bad news.
"It turns out that this is the case, then I can give you another way to make money."
Akabane was slightly happy, and then quickly recovered calmly, "Have you heard of the Comic Exhibition? "
"Comic Exhibition?"
Tsunade was stunned for a moment, not understanding what it meant.
"Young Master, what is a comic exhibition?"
Kurama Yunlang is also unclear about hearing it.
"In short, it is to imitate the characters and roles in manga, and even restore the plot."
Akabane lightly explained.
"Imitate? Does everyone in the comic show do that?"
Tsunade understands a bit, but some descriptions are not quite clear to her.
"No, as long as some people imitate and perform, other people have to pay if they want to enter the venue."
Akabane explained patiently, "In addition, everyone can Prepare some handmade peripherals, such as fan paintings, character statues, etc., which can also be sold for a fee."
"so that's how it is."
Tsunade's eyes gleamed hearing about money.
"How about it, do you guys want to do it?"
"Of course, such an interesting thing, of course, we have to do it, and your last volume is part of the plot. We can start preparing for the comics show in advance!"
Tsunade is very smart. After knowing what the comic show is, she immediately knew how to hold it.
As long as the Comic Exhibition is operated properly, money and so on are not a problem!
She couldn't help but laugh, and patted Akabane's shoulder hard and said: "Thank you so much Akabane, as expected, you are kind to me! I'll go and prepare first…"
"Un."
Akabane brow raised, slightly nodded.
Tsunade excitedly hugged her Manga and left. When she disappeared, Akabane's face was suddenly distorted, and he inhaled deeply trying to ease the pain in his shoulder.
This girl forgot to hold back her strength when she got excited, which made him take the brunt of it.
