Full-time cartoonist.

Chapter 182 Enlightenment and the End of the Era
It was only then that Higashino realized that he had been influenced by his current status before he knew it.

When he serialized "Soul of Chess", he was very envious of Akira Toriyama's achievements.

In Xiaozheng's performance ranking, he wanted to get No.1 every time.

That's why before the end of "Dragon Ball", the rhythm of the manga was changed to quickly draw the climax of "Soul of Chess" - "sai" vs "Taya Yukihiro".

Up to now, it is ridiculous to be nostalgic for being the most popular manga artist in Jump.

His original intention of drawing comics was very vulgar, just for money.

Knowing this, Higashino's pressure was relieved and he faced it with ease.

"Oda-san, I am looking forward to your work."

"Yes, Mr. Akino Tori!" Oda said proudly.

The journey of "One Piece" is about to begin.

A new era is coming.

Yoshii Yamahisa stood up to congratulate Oda. Although it is not yet known whether he can pass the serialization meeting, the Tori Akino studio has been established for four years. Higashihiro's manga artist assistants have not even appeared in a serialized work. It's a pity.

Now Eiichiro Oda is about to do it, and Yoshii Sanjiu hugs Oda very happily.

"After more than three years of hard work, I am finally about to succeed. Congratulations, Oda-san."

"Thank you, Yoshii-kun." Oda burst into tears with excitement.

He gave up his studies and embarked on the path of a cartoonist. Although he is going forward bravely, when he is quiet at night, he always thinks whether he is too rash?What if I can't upload?
With depression and anxiety, finally came this day.

Only the last level is left.

Akemi Akimiya looked at Oda enviously. The short manga she drew this time was still not approved by the editor.

The 28-year-old Akemi Akimiya, although she still hasn't given up on the manga path, is exhausted.

Seeing the talented people around her appear one by one, and only she stayed where she was, this made her very uncomfortable.

Higashino walked over, patted her on the shoulder, and silently comforted Akemi Akimiya.

This is what comics are like, talent is the most important thing.

Good drawing skills and hard work are not the decisive factors for becoming a cartoonist.

Creativity is what matters.

Seeing Higashihiro's concerned eyes, Akemi Akimiya nodded slightly, indicating that she was fine and she was used to it.

"Tori Akino-sensei."

Oda said suddenly.

Dongye took his hand back calmly, "What's wrong?"

"After the storyboard of my serial is finished, I ask the teacher to guide me a little bit, please!" He bowed and said very sincerely.

"Of course," Higashino replied.

Oda rubbed his hands, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and started to draw "Slam Dunk".

He drew his impulse for "One Piece" in the background of the Xiangbei and Xiangyang competition.

Higashino nodded in satisfaction, and then looked around the studio. There was only one person who did not speak, and that was the silent Tanakai.

He couldn't help but asked with concern: "Tanaka-san's last work was..."The Sojourner", it was a very creative work. After so long, don't you have the idea of ​​painting a new work?"

This assistant is also very talented. Higashino believes that he is likely to become a professional cartoonist.

"I feel that my ability is still insufficient," Tanaka shook his head slightly after raising his head, "I still want to learn more from Mr. Akino Tori."

"Don't underestimate yourself, but Tanaka-san is as long as you are happy." Higashino said with a smile.

"Yes, I am very happy now!" Tanaka said loudly.

……

In mid-May 1997, with the end of "The Great Change of Go", the plot of "Slam Dunk" also came to an end.

The story of Xiangbei and Xiangyang is over.

Sakuragi Hanamichi succeeded in a slam dunk. Although the five fouls were sent off due to invalid scoring, the cheers of the audience and the sense of accomplishment of the slam dunk made him unable to calm down for a long time. This kind of happiness, crisp and numb, The whole person pondered over it in a daze.

Kakuda plays.

Xiangbei has 62 points, two points ahead of Xiangyang, with one and a half minutes left.

For the first time since Fujima appeared on the stage, he panicked visible to the naked eye, and began to feel at a loss.

In the following time, under Xiangbei's defense, Xiangyang missed a goal.

After waiting for the last few seconds, Hua Xingtou shot in the eyes of everyone, and then hit the iron.

The whistle sounded at the end of the game, Xiangbei entered the final, and Xiangyang came to an end.

The joy and laughter in Xiangbei set off the sadness of the Xiangyang players crying.

Especially Fujima, his tears were the most touching, his lips trembled, tears came out of his eyes and slid down his cheeks.

Fujima was crying, Higashino referred to the picture drawn by Hua Chao crying after watching Tokai University lose to Meiji University.

With unwillingness and sadness, especially with true feelings.

"Thank you so much."

Fujima and Xiangbei thank each other.

Readers are very sorry for the end of this era of top golfers.

In Musashiya's art classroom, Kazuya Takasugi watched Higashihiro's back quietly.

The role of Fujima, who just appeared on the stage, has brought a lot of regrets to Kazuya Takasugi.

The match between Xiangbei and Xiangyang is full of twists and turns, and the friction between the strong teams creates a plot that readers can't put it down.

So even if he is the opponent in Xiangbei, Takasugi still hopes that Xiangyang will play a stronger strength.

"If Fujima had concentrated on being a player from the beginning, if Xiangyang had a full-time coach, the result might not be like this."

"but……"

"After losing to Xiangbei, Xiangyang's era of Kanagawa's second strongest is over. Kanagawa has entered an era of separatist rule."

Takasugi Kazuo also thought about it.

Has never made a move, the strongest king in Kanagawa County, Hainan; owns Xiandao Akira and Yu Zhujun, and once defeated Lingnan in northern Hunan.

There are five powerful players in Shonhoku.

And Buri High School.

With so many strong teams getting together, the content after "Slam Dunk" will be even more exciting.

Thinking of this, Takasugi Kazuya's heart became excited again!

……

After a class ended, the teacher left the classroom. Higashino lifted his buttocks and prepared to go back, but watched the monitor walk up to the podium and knocked on the table.

"Sorry to bother everyone."

Higashino had no choice but to sit down.

"The topic that needs to be carried out now is to select the school belle of Musashino Art University. Does anyone want to sign up?" said the monitor.

"Huh?" A big question mark appeared on Higashino Hibiki's forehead.

He recalled in the uninterested areas of his brain, and only then did he understand such a thing.

Japan's school belle is different from China's, and it's not something everyone discusses in private.

Instead, after several competitions in terms of appearance, talent, and moral character, only those who get No. 1 can be called school flowers, and there are special campus-level activities.

Moreover, after the school beauty is selected, it will also enter the beauty pageant for the most beautiful college students in Japan.

It's very formal and entertaining.
