"Are you Sawajiri Shi?"

"Nice to meet you, President Tezuka!"

Facing Tezuka Makoto's right hand, Sawajiri quickly stepped forward and held it with both hands

Thanks to Sawajiri's self-recommendation and Li Wannian's affirmation, Sawajiri finally successfully joined the editorial team of "Weekly Shōnen Century" after half a month of hard work.

Tezuka Makoto rarely comes to the editorial team on weekdays, but this time he made a special trip for this Sawajiri story.

"I know you used to be the editor of Long Live Sang. You are very capable. You are welcome to join us!"

"Thank you! President Tezuka"

Even though Tezuka Makoto has just graduated from college and is only in his early 20s, who told him to have a good father?

It was thanks to Tetsukama's connections that the magazine could be successfully launched, and the well-known editor in the industry, Koushi Etani, was appointed as the editor-in-chief of the magazine.

"Editor Qiangu, this is the new editor Sawajiri!"

Tezuka Makoto brought Sawajiri Shi to the editor-in-chief's office. Seeing this, Miko Koshi stood up quickly.

Before Qiangu Koshi, he was the editor of "Weekly Shōnen Jump". He had rich experience, but he had also heard of Sawajiri's name, so he took the initiative to say to Sawajiri: "Welcome, Editor Sawajiri!"

"I have admired my name for a long time and am the editor-in-chief of Qiangu!"

"You guys chat, I'm leaving first!" After introducing Sawajiri Shi to Senko Koshi, Tezuka Makoto left.

"Editor Sawajiri used to be Mr. Banzai's editor. It just so happens that this is the manuscript Mr. Banzai sent this time. Can Editor Sawajiri take a look at it?"

Qiangu Gengshi got straight to the point and directly picked up the manuscript on the table and handed it to Sawajiri Shi.

Sawajiri Shi didn't refuse, just took it over and sat on the sofa in the office to read it.

Sawajiri Shi picked up the title page and saw that the first page was "Naruto".

Just seeing Uzumaki Naruto with a bright smile on the title page, Sawajiri couldn't help but sigh. Nowadays, this little boy is even the most popular in Neon!

As the most well-known culture in Neon's native land, Sawajiri Shi never thought that a foreigner would develop his native ninja culture to this extent.

Although fundamentally speaking, the ninjas written by Li Wannian in "Naruto" do not quite fit in with neon's traditional ninjas in terms of combat, ability, or image.

But I can’t help but look good!

The various ninjutsu in it are all amazing. How could someone be so good at drawing fighting comics?

Moreover, compared to the mindless fights in other Neon comics, the fight scenes in Li Wannian's "Naruto" clearly give people the feeling that both sides have grown brains!

You know, before this, let alone other people's comics, even Li Wannian's comics, the fighting in them was not very clever!

For example, "Bleach" basically competes with whose spiritual pressure is higher, and then adds the gorgeous swastika, which seems to be very exciting, but it is almost a template routine.

Looking at "Dragon Ball" again, although there was indeed some battle of wits in the early days, after entering "Dragon Ball Z", it basically boils down to whoever has the strongest fighting ability and whoever wins!

But this "Naruto" is different. His fighting respects the reader's IQ very much. Not only Naruto and Sasuke in the front, relying on their cooperation, actually defeated Zabuza who was far more powerful than them. Then there were Kakashi and Zabuza. The battle between the two Jonin was even more breathtaking.

Right now Sawajiri is watching episode 31 of "Naruto".

The content of the previous chapter, the manga has already talked about Zabuza and Haku, fighting Team 7 on the bridge again.

Shiro's Blood Succession Limit is really powerful. Even if Sasuke and Naruto join forces, they are no match for Shiro, and Sasuke is even seriously injured as a result.

At the critical moment, Naruto gained a cheating experience and used the power of Nine-Tails to successfully defeat Shiro.

On the other side, the second battle between Kakashi and Zabuza has also come to an end.

Kakashi summoned several ninja dogs to restrict Zabuza's movements, and then used his unique skill Raikiri.

However, when Raikiri was about to hit Zabuza, Haku suddenly appeared and blocked the fatal blow for Zabuza. Of course, the cost was that Haku lost his life.

Sawajiri Shi still remembers the sour feeling in his heart when he just finished reading that episode yesterday. Haku and Zabuza were obviously villains, but Sawajiri Shi felt very heartbroken.

So he quickly opened the content of this chapter.

At the beginning of this conversation, the perspective turned to Inali, and he was seen knocking on the door of one house after another, hoping that someone could fight with him.

But because they had suffered too many failures, the villagers ignored him at all.

Even so, Inari still wanted to go. Even though his mother stopped him, he insisted on going and said the words that touched Sawajiri's heart: "I am my father's son!"

Then the perspective turned to Naruto again. The thick fog dissipated, and he could see clearly what happened on the bridge. Shiro, who had interacted with him, died so easily, leaving people defenseless!

And Zabuza's nonchalant attitude made Naruto even more angry. If it weren't for his own lack of strength, he would have beaten Zabuza violently!

However, the plot later reversed again. Zabuza's employer Kado showed up with a large group of people and actually said that he wanted to kill Zabuza too so that he didn't have to pay.

So Zabuza and Kakashi stopped on the spot. Although both Zabuza's hands were disabled by Kakashi, he still relied on the kunai in his mouth, and finally cut off Kado's head in the crowd, although he also paid the same price. own life.

"I want to say... farewell forever, Bai...

Thank you all the way...

I'm so sorry..."

The last picture shows Shiro's smiling face and Zabuza's body below which is stabbed like a hedgehog by a sword. Combined with Zabuza's inner monologue above, it all makes Sawajiri feel a sense of loss.

"How does it feel?"

Seeing that Sawajiri Shi had finished reading the latest chapter of "Naruto", Etani Koshi couldn't help but ask.

"As expected of Mr. Banzai, his portrayal of characters is really great. He clearly didn't use much pen and ink, but he portrayed the characters of Zabuza and Shiro and the relationship between them very delicately."

"I don't want to hear your compliments. I've heard this too much. I want to ask you, from an editorial perspective, what do you think after reading this?"

Qiangu Koushi's words made Sawajiri fall into deep thought, and now he completely understood what the other party meant.

So, after thinking for a long time, Sawajiri Shi said: "Editor-in-chief Qiangu, I understand what you mean. I also think that we need to increase the promotion of "Naruto" and invest resources. The priority should be at least Before Death!"

"What's the reason?"

Although Qiangu Gengshi was still asking, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Currently, "Naruto" is indeed an excellent comic. As long as it maintains this level and has a neon ninja theme, I think it has the potential to surpass "Death"!"

"Haha, is it just to surpass "Death"?"

After hearing this, Qiangu Gengshi recognized Sawajiri Shi's statement, but not much!

"Do you mean that?"

"That's right, since you have to invest in publicity resources, then invest the most. Anyway, "Dragon Ball" is already so popular, so you don't need so many publicity resources! Maybe the future development of "Naruto" in Neon will be better than that of "Dragon Ball" "Woolen cloth?"

"No way!"

Sawajiri's history is unequivocal.
