All-rounder Artist - Chapter 373

Chapter 373: Chapter 352: The Three Brothers Stand Side by Side _1

After hearing the explanation from Luo Wei, the manga assistant, everyone finally understood…

Apparently, Shadow had not originally intended to make “Death Note” so phenomenal!

You can tell from the first version of “Death Note”.

Shadow hadn’t planned to take it seriously before, just like his previous two manga, this guy is a slacker!

Even though he has the ability to carry the weight, if he can slack off, he does so with peace of mind!

If it weren’t for Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood’s mockery and innuendos, along with the public opinion influenced by regional disputes, you probably wouldn’t have seen such a stunning artwork in “Death Note”!

For the reason that made Shadow take his work seriously, Luo Wei, of course, did not explicitly mention.

If mentioned explicitly, it would seem that Shadow lacks grace, and at this point, Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood are probably feeling quite deflated, so there wouldn’t be any point in walking all over them again.

They were already ground to dust.

However, anyone with a slight comprehension can see what Luo Wei is hinting at—

Netizens have even retraced Luo Wei’s initial thought process:

“Because Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood’s innuendos got on Shadow’s nerves, Shadow decided to deal with these two?”

Logical, flawless reasoning.

And just like Luo Wei’s initial reaction, everyone suddenly felt a little sorry for Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood.

Why on earth did you two bother him?

He’s a seemingly harmless giant dragon who’s actually just taking a nap. Once the dragon wakes up, who can withstand its powerful tail swing!

Haven’t you seen the Twenty-Two Blade stream, known for its exquisite artwork, feeling a bit inferior?

But on the other hand.

If it weren’t for Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood’s ill-conceived provocations, would Shadow have taken “Death Note” so seriously?

After all, this big shot is too lazy to really put effort into creating artwork.

The fact is, this big shot can leisurely create artwork and have it dismissed by the readers, whom he leaves none the wiser, thinking that Shadow is quite impressive.

From this perspective, shouldn’t everyone be thankful for the provocations of Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood?

If Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood hadn’t aggravated Shadow, would Shadow have been so diligent and shown his true strength?

He probably would have continued to slack off.

From now on, there should be more people like Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury to stimulate Shadow.

“So, we really should be grateful to Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood!”

“If it weren’t for Teacher Pacific Saury and Teacher Sea of Blood’s self-sacrifice and dedication, we probably would have been hoodwinked by Shadow again!”

“The key is, even if Shadow casually hoodwinks people, his level still crushes eighty percent of manga artists!”

“Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood deserve eternal recognition!”

“With merits so great, I suggest giving Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood a commendation!”

“…”

Luo Wei, seeing these comments, couldn’t help but laugh.

These current netizens are too unpredictable, full of bizarre speculations.

However, on second thought, wasn’t it also bizarre speculations when Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood previously mocked Shadow?

Uh-huh.

Spare the rod and spoil the child, nobody is spared by fate.

As for the purpose of Luo Wei’s article, it was actually to disgust others in return.

Shadow can stay quiet, but himself as an assistant must do something else, otherwise the artwork of “Death Note” would have been wasted.

Of course.

Even if the artwork isn’t compared, “Death Note” is a very classic work.

On some rating websites, some people evaluated “Death Note” as follows:

This is a work with a narrative so classically S-ranked, and a never-before-seen artwork reaching the unprecedented SSS-rank!

…

Thanks to Sea of Blood?

Thanks to Pacific Saury?

Thanks to whom, exactly!

Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury, after reading Luo Wei’s article and seeing netizens’ weird comments, completely lost their composure, as Luo Wei predicted, even developing psychological shadows…

This wave of defeat is complete!

However, Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury felt wronged.

Who could have imagined that a popular work like “King of the Net” was just Shadow being slack.

Who could have thought that the exquisite artwork of “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” was merely Shadow drawing casually?

This is not scientific at all!

However, this generation of netizens is indeed full of twists and turns.

Some people even made animated GIFs based on the videos of Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury mocking Shadow previously.

The scenes of these two mocking Shadow as an unremarkable entity, and then bursting into laughter afterward, have become the latest favorites in many people’s collections of emoji.

Even some netizens went to Chu Kuang’s tribal comment section to stir up the situation:

“Shadow didn’t even bring out all his strength when drawing your ‘King of the Net’ manga version, how can you tolerate this, Chu Kuang, you old rascal?”

“I wouldn’t tolerate it anyway.”

“Chu Kuang the old rascal is not that good of a person either, he has fooled many readers with his Narrative Trickery.”

“Birds of a feather flock together, the wisdom of the ancients is truly deceitful. Chu Kuang deceived the readers, Shadow fooled the readers, both of these guys are swindlers!”

“I hope Xian Yu doesn’t pick up bad habits from these two.”

“Teacher Admirable Fish is very steady, how could he be as despicable as these two.”

“…”

Because of the enthusiasm of the netizens, Shadow, Chu Kuang and even Xian Yu’s tribal comment sections are exceptionally lively.

At the same time.

Riding the momentum of “Death Note”, the number of fans who follow Shadow have skyrocketed, and in just one week, it surged to nearly fifty million!

There’s still a long way from Chu Kuang’s breaking hundred million mark.

It is also a significant number away from Xian Yu’s current ninety million.

However, Shadow did start late in putting in his effort, so no one says things like Shadow is an unnotable entity anymore.

Does your unnotable entity look like this?

Is your unnotable entity the top artist in the manga world?

Yes.

With the spread of “Death Note”‘s popularity, Shadow’s artistic skills have been recognized in the industry.

After all, the Twenty-Two Blade Stream admitted that their art is inferior to Shadow’s.

And the art that can make the Twenty-Two Blade Stream concede is only the best in Blue Star!

When it comes to manga, the importance of art and storyline is the same.

Being number one in Blue Star in either aspect is a remarkable achievement!

In addition.

Some netizens wrote a short script for the Three Bros Xian Yu, Chu Kuang, and Shadow, which also became widely circulated in many places:

“The Chu people say they are number one in music, Xian Yu laughs.”

“The Chu people say they are number one in manga, Shadow laughs.”

“The Chu people say they are number one in novels…”

“Chu people: Shut up, we never said that!”

It just so happened.

Xian Yu was the first person to shatter the Chu people’s confidence in music.

While Shadow was the first person to shatter the Chu people’s confidence in manga.

And it happens that these two are bros.

For this, some netizens are hoping: “Hopefully someone can give Chu Kuang a run for his money in the future, the Three Bros should stick together!”

Some even joked: “By your standards, are the Three Bros on track to represent the artists of Great Qin in sweeping the six continents?”

Of course, sweeping the six continents is only a joke.

The Three Bros can’t represent the art of Great Qin, they are just individuals with very high personal levels of achievement. The art level of the other continents can’t be underestimated because of this.

However, one undeniable fact is, “Death Note” has put Shadow on track to being a god in the manga circle.

By now, Shadow has completely banished the label of being an unnotable entity, and has gained the qualifications to stand beside Xian Yu and Chu Kuang!
