Start By Becoming A Mangaka

Chapter 106: Kengan Match

Yuuki entered the building and saw a lot of people had already come there. He could see a lot of famous people from celebrities, high ranking politicians, famous athletes, CEOs and many other famous people.

His entrance didn't make any commotion but many people also noticed him, especially girls, there were a lot of cougar in this building, they were wondering if Yuuki was some boy toy. He was walking around until someone called him.

"Young master!!" Yuuki turned his head in response and saw a very big man. He remembered this man.

"Oh, Komada, are you a fighter here?" Yuuki asked.

Komada Shigeru is a yakuza man known as "Komada the Deva", he is also one of the members of Shuuei clan. He's a muscular man with a huge tattoo of a Deva on his back, which is the origin of his nickname "the Deva". Komada is a powerful combatant who fought with a street brawling style coupled with his inhumanly remarkable strength and endurance.

"Yes, young master, did you come with the boss?" Komada asked.

Yuuki shook his head, "No, I've received an invitation from Metsudo-jii."

Komada was surprised and opened his eyes wide, "Did the Kengan match's chairman invite you, young master?"

Yuuki nodded, "Yeah, by the way, which company did you represent?"

Komada smiled widely, "I'm the representative fighter of the Nogi group!"

Yuuki titled his head, "Nogi group?"

"Komada, who is he?" Suddenly someone came between them.

"Oh, Mr. Nogi, this is my young master, he is the first son of the boss," Komada said.

Yuuki looked at the old man in front of him, he knew he was the chairman of Nogi Group.

Nogi was also surprised to see the young master of Shuuei Clan here, he knew how powerful that clan was within the underworld, especially after they made drive their competitor away from Japan, they almost become the only Yakuza group in Japan.

Nogi smiled at him, "Hello, my name is Nogi Hideki," he wanted to test him.

"Yeah, my name is Yuuki," Yuuki said.

Nogi Hideki is the leading director of Nogi Group. He is an esteemed looking gentleman, always seen wearing the finest threads. He has black hair that is slicked back and wrinkled yet experienced facial features.

Nogi had a good eye for noticing other person's useful qualities and manipulating them to benefit himself. He remembered Yuuki from the file he read a few days ago.

"Did you also the one who makes 'Fairy Tail?" Nogi asked.

Yuuki raised his eyebrow, "Old man, did you read manga?"

Nogi twitched his lips being called an old man by him but it was the truth since he was 50 years old this year. He knew he couldn't be angry towards him since his status was the same or higher than him.

Nogi smiled bitterly, "Of course, one of our subsidiaries company is Weekly Shounen Jump."

Yuuki's eyes lit up when he heard about Shounen Jump, "Wow, that's great, then, what's wrong?" He remembered Takagi, Mashiro, and Niizuma, he knew they were working hard but it needed a few years more to make them mature, they needed more experiences before they entered the world stage.

Yuuki also heard the condition of Shounen Jump wasn't as good as before since they didn't have any good manga in their company, probably, Nogi would invite him to enter 'Shounen Jump.'

Nogi smiled, "Of course, as the owner of 'Weekly Shounen Jump,' I'd like to invite you to make your manga in our company! We'll give you more privileges than in 'Weekly Shounen Gongon'," he smiled he knew how profitable his manga was, 'Fairy Tail' was the most popular manga right now, his company was in dire to seek new manga but it was very hard to find it.

They had found many talented mangakas but it needed a few more years before they started to develop, oh, how much Nogi missed the time of 'Shounen Jump' during the Dragon Ball, Astro Boy, and Golgo 13.

Now, it was in the past, 'Weekly Shounen Jump' wasn't as strong as before, it needed very good manga being published for his company, Nogi needed to a power of the young man in front of him.

Yuuki smiled at him, 'what a cunning old fox,' he knew that many businessmen were shameless and that was true, they needed to be shameless in this world or else many people would rob their rich.

Yuuki was very greedy, he could get a lot of money from drawing another manga, but he wanted more.

"I have a proposition for you, I don't know if you're interested," Yuuki said.

"Hoo? What is it?" Nogi asked as he felt intrigued with the young man in front of him.

"What if I buy 'Weekly Shounen Jump' from you," Yuuki dropped a bomb.

Nogi couldn't believe what he heard from this young man, he didn't think Yuuki was very greedy and wanted to take 'Weekly Shounen Jump' from him, though, he knew that Yuuki could ask this because the situation of 'Weekly Shounen Jump' wasn't as good as before, he also knew that he needed to cut his loss, if it continued he needed to sell it, but Yuuki's proposition made him change his mind, he needed to make this become more profitable from him.

"How about this, let's do Kengan match between us," Nogi suddenly said.

Kodama who was by their side was startled, he didn't expect from a short introduction would become Kengan match between his employer and the son of his boss.

Yuuki smiled widely, "Good! What is your condition!"

Nogi nodded, "Good, I like your spirit, if I win, I want you to draw manga in our company for 20 years without any salary and royalty, all the rights of your manga will be given to us," he wanted to dry him.

Yuuki was excited, he had never felt this excitement before, "Sure, you can, and if I win I'll have your 'Weekly Shounen Jump'."

Nogi nodded, "Sure you can have it, let's talk about the appointment of this battle."

They talked about the date of their Kengan match, they ignored everyone who was dumbfounded with the development of their conversation.

Yuuki smiled with this match, he would have 'Weekly Shounen Jump' on his hand.
