The Gold Future Cup is a yearly one-shot manga compet.i.tion in the Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine. It is held in a series of 4-7 consecutive issues of Jump with a different entrant in each issue. The one-shots are not only put up against each other but the other series in the magazine as well.

During the Gold Future Cup, there is an option on the reader survey cards asking if readers would support the series or not. The one-shots ranking in the magazine, as well as it supports count, determines the victor. One-shots that do well in the Gold Future Cup have a good chance at serialization.

Of course, many aspiring mangaka won"t let this chance go and enter this tournament.

Even Tsubasa and Ruki also that if someone won this tournament they would get a chance for serialization.

Yuuki looked weirdly at the six people in front of him. He took his coffee and sipped it slowly, "Do you want to enter this tournament as well?" He was wondering if they would work together to win a tournament.

f.u.kuda nodded his head, "Yes, we"re working together to fight this enemy." He took a newspaper and gave it to him.

Yuuki took it and read it was news about a famous musician wanted to enter the manga world. He frowned and knew why they were gathered like this. He didn"t think it was unfair since this musician was famous. It was quite dumb if he didn"t use his popularity if he wanted to enter this tournament. But it was only on the premise his manga was uninteresting. If the manga of this musician was boring as f.u.c.k, he would lose his fans quickly.

Tsubasa and Ruki also looked at the newspaper. Ruki was quite startled when she saw this new.

"Koogy want to draw his own manga?" Ruki was quite shocked.

"Do you know him?" Yuuki asked.

Ruki nodded at him, "Yes, he is quite a famous singer and I also collect his song. I heard he was in hiatus and wanted to draw manga. I didn"t expect him to use popularity this way." She knew that with this advertis.e.m.e.nt many of his fans would give him their support to him.

Tsubasa didn"t show an interest with this singer. She was only interested in both manga and Yuuki. Though she would support Yuuki if he decided to be a singer.

"What do you think about this, Yuuki-sensei? Isn"t this cheating?" f.u.kuda was quite emotional.

Yuuki shook his head, "Well if he uses creator perspective what he was doing was cheating." His words made everyone smile. "But if he uses the perspective of businessman it was a great thing. This advertis.e.m.e.nt can raise the sales of Shounen Jump"s book."

They were silent in front of cold truth. After all, it was all about money if it sold well no one would care about it.

"But if your manga is interesting, you don"t need to worry about this kind of c.r.a.p," Yuuki said and clenched his hand, "Destroy him and show him that you"re better than this guy who uses his popularity to win this tournament."


His words affected the six people in front of him. Even both Ruki and Tsubasa were also affected. Tsubasa had a star on her eyes and Ruki was blushing. Strong and confidence were one of those things that woman liked in guys.

"Ano, can you give us an opinion about our manga?" Yuriko said while raising her hand. She wanted to know the opinion of the famous "Fairy Tail" mangaka. Everyone also wanted him to give them their opinion about their manga.

"Well, sure," Yuuki didn"t mind and took their manga. He read their manga Detective Trap by Muto Ashirogi, Kiyoshi Night with Shinta f.u.kuda, and Hideout Door by Aoki Ko and Takuro Nakai. He read it slowly and knew who was going to be the winner.

"How is it?" Mashiro asked.

"Well, I think there will be two people who will take the first place," Yuuki said.

"That! Like what Niizumkun said!" Kiyoshi was shocked.

"Hehehe, you can see it too, Yuuki-sensei!" Niizuma was happy that someone understood him.

Yuuki nodded at him, "Well, don"t worry about that singer, I believe yours is better."

Then they didn"t continue to talk about this Gold Future Cup. They started to ask him about the development of "Fairy Tail" since they were curious about it.

Yuuki looked at the six people in front of him. He knew that they would become the backbone of Shounen Jump. He would have Shounen Jump in the future and made a good relationship with wouldn"t be bad.

Yuuki also knew that someone put bug device on their table and he turned his head. He smiled at the blue haired guy and this made the blue haired guy shudder. He knew everyone in Wagnaria since he had watched "Working!" in the past. He didn"t know where this blue haired guy got his courage to spy on him.

Yuuki didn"t stay for long and decided to go home. It was almost night and he wanted to go back as soon as possible. He said goodbye to the six people and delivered both Tsubasa and Ruki back. He didn"t stay in their dormitory for a long time and went home. He said he would visit them later with everyone.

Yuuki was in his car until he noticed the collar on Kuroka gave him notice. He didn"t expect something would happen to her. He needed to save her but before that, he needed to hide his ident.i.ty. He didn"t want someone to know he could use magic.

But when he gonna made his costume, he heard Ruki"s voice.

"YUUKI!!"

Yuuki stopped his action and looked at her.

"What"s wrong? Did you miss something behind?" Yuuki asked.

Ruki shook her head, "No, can you help me to become my model for my manga?" She was quite embarra.s.sed.

"Sure," Yuuki didn"t think much after all he had something more important to do.

Ruki smiled happily and went back.

Yuuki sighed and drove his car to a remote place. He made a costume to hide his ident.i.ty and teleported directly to Kuroka. He was wondering if Kuroka was being caught by scientists to be researched since Kuroka was UMA.
