Chapter 112 Extra Mission: Sports Meeting Opening Ceremony
Because the Valley of the End scenic area was to be rebuilt, the Infinite Monthly Reading Experience Hall, which was originally scheduled to open on the second day, had to be postponed for a few days.
In order to open the business as soon as possible, Shingon wants Kakashi to restore the statue in the Valley of the End using the technique of carving a dog head.
However, Kakashi said that his chakra was limited and he could only carve a head at best.
Finally, Shingon and Kakashi learned the earth escape carving technique and restored the statues in the Valley of the End.
Shingon not only restored the statues of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, but also made two new statues.
The seal of opposition between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, and the seal of reconciliation between Naruto and Sasuke.
There is opposition and reconciliation, and Zhenyan feels that this is the only way to be complete.
The reconstruction of the Valley of the End has been completed, and the Infinite Moon Reading Experience Center has officially opened. On the opening day, the Valley of the End once again welcomed a large wave of tourists from all over the ninja world.
Visitors here can enjoy the scenic scenery of the Valley of the End and appreciate the customs and culture of Konoha. They can also go to the Infinite Moon Reading Experience Hall to experience virtual life and see different life scenes.
Over the years, different scenic areas in various parts of the Ninja World were gradually developed, but the Valley of the End always stood out thanks to its two types of scenery, attracting people flocking to it and becoming a must-visit tourist attraction.
[Host, all the main missions have been completed! ] As soon as the inspiration system came online, it excitedly announced this good news.
Zhenyan was also very happy, but although the main storyline was completed, the mission did not end there.
[That...] The spiritual system paused for a moment, then said, [There is another extra mission.]
[Extra Mission?] Zhenyan didn't expect there would be an extra mission, so he asked the system, [What is the content of the extra mission?]
Inspiration system: [The extra mission requires you to arrange a celebration as the finale.]
【Celebration.】 Shingon smiled. He was preparing to hold a ninja sports meeting.
Shingo came to the Hokage's building to see the Hokage: "Kakashi, what do you think about Konoha hosting the first Ninja Games?"
Kakashi: “…………”
"The development of sports can not only improve the ninja's physique, but also promote exchanges between ninja villages and maintain peace and stability in the ninja world. I think Konoha must win the right to host the first event of such a representative significance."
Kakashi looked at Shingo with his eyes wide open: "The sports meet you mentioned is not something that Konoha can decide."
Before, when Shingon was developing the scenic area, the Valley of the End was at least Konoha's business. But now he wants to mobilize the entire ninja world to hold a sports meeting, which is not something that can be done with just a nod from a Hokage.
Zhenyan thought it was not a difficult task, so he found Bai Jue's phone.
When searching for Otsutsuki Isshiki before, Shingon sent Shirazetsu to the five major ninja villages to facilitate the exchange of information. Later, Otsutsuki Isshiki was sealed, and Shirazetsu was not taken back. After all, using Shirazetsu's phone to communicate is really convenient.
At this moment, after finding the Hakuzetsu phone, Shingon contacted the Kages of the other four major ninja villages in front of the Hokage.
"Master Tsuchikage, Konoha wants to unite everyone to hold a sports meeting... It's not a competition of ninjutsu, but a sports competition. The main purpose is to let everyone exercise their physical fitness and improve their willpower and spiritual quality..."
"Uncle Raikage, athletes are not divided into different levels. Sports events are classified. If a Genin is confident, he can challenge a Jonin in the event he is good at..."
"Brother Mizukage, this is the first sports meet and no one has any experience, so Konoha wants to test the waters first..."
"The Kazekage can also participate." Shingon glanced at Kakashi and asked Baizetsu to continue to convey the message to Gaara, "After all, this is a matter of glory for the village. How can we miss the participation of the Kage? The Kage should take the lead..."
Kakashi: “…………”
After contacting the Kages of the four major ninja villages, Shingon looked at the Hokage in front of him and said, "Kakashi, everyone said that they would send ninjas to Konoha to participate in the sports meet. Should we start preparing?"
Kakashi: “…………”
As the first Ninja Games to create a historical precedent, Shingon felt that it should be held in a grand manner, and Konoha, as the organizer, should also show the style of a large village.
Considering that there was no precedent in the ninja world, Shingon wrote a detailed process based on his own experience and handed it to the Hokage.
After reading it, Kakashi asked about some details about the sport. Finally, he pointed to something that had nothing to do with the sport and asked Shinon, "What is the use of this ambassador?"
"It represents the image of Konoha and promotes Konoha and the sports meet." After Shingon finished explaining, he suddenly remembered something, "We should design another mascot with Konoha's characteristics."
After saying the truth, he looked at Kakashi and said, "I think the Hokage is quite suitable to be an ambassador, and a mascot. Kakashi, what do you think of Xiaojiu?"
Kakashi looked at Shingon thoughtfully, and said, "Since he wants to represent Konoha, why not let everyone vote for him."
Shingo also thought that the idea of democratic election was good, so he did not ask about it again. A few days later, Shingo found that the Hokage had posted a notice in the village, which mentioned the election of image ambassadors and mascots.
Since we want a democratic election, this matter must be widely publicized, but the problem is that the Hokage has put forward several requirements.
First of all, regarding the image ambassador, the Hokage requires that the image ambassador must be beautiful. After all, as the image representative of Konoha, the image cannot be too bad. In addition, the image ambassador must also have outstanding communication skills, because the image ambassador also has to shoulder the work of publicity.
Hokage also has requirements for mascots. Mascots must be likable, which means they should be pleasing to the eye.
After the notice was posted, the village election began. Due to the Hokage's very specific request, Shingen's votes were overwhelming, and she was elected as the image ambassador with 80% of the votes.
I have no opinion on this truth, but who can tell him why he is also the mascot?
Shingon found Kakashi, and Kakashi seemed to be prepared. He said to Shingon: "This is the public opinion."
Mantra: “…………”
[23333 This election campaign is killing me]
[Image ambassadors and mascots must be beautiful, able to communicate, and pleasing to the eye]
[Makoto: You can just show me your ID. Kakashi: That's what the public thinks!]
[Hahahaha Kakashi wins the game]
[I enjoyed watching this episode so much]
[This is so funny, are you sure this isn't a request to select a village beauty?]
[Hahahahahaha Zhenyan was elected the most beautiful village girl! ]
[I could tell when the shadow was just a shadow, it was definitely a beauty]
[It is difficult not to support the black-hearted party]
[Wuwuwu, the Baixin Party is also very pleased, Zhenyan is the most beautiful village girl! ]
Due to the heated discussion, a voting activity was held on the forum, and the content of the vote was the election of the most beautiful village girl.
This time, both the White Heart Party and the Black Heart Party harmoniously chose the truth...
Zhenyan had no doubts about being selected as the village beauty...
Shingon didn't know that she had gained another title of village beauty. After being elected as the image ambassador and mascot by public opinion, Shingon invited Kakashi to the Uchiha clan.
Because of the upcoming sports meet, Konoha entered a period of full mobilization. Everyone chose to practice their own specialty, hoping to win glory for the village in the subsequent sports meet.
Among the Uchiha people, the most people practice table tennis.
After inviting Kakashi to the Uchiha clan, Shingen handed over a table tennis racket and said, "Kakashi, do you dare to accept my challenge?"
Kakashi took the racket and lifted his forehead guard, revealing his Sharingan, obviously deciding to take it seriously.
Shingon blinked and opened his Sharingan. The two walked to the two sides of the table and after getting ready, Shingon served the first ball...
After two rounds of ping-pong, Kakashi scored the first point...
Shinyan looked at Kakashi and couldn't help but say, "Kakashi, we are playing ball, not fighting on the battlefield. Can you not be so murderous?"
When Kakashi played basketball, he looked just like he was killing an enemy on the battlefield. His eyes were so cold that the balls he hit seemed to turn into shurikens, making his neck feel cold...
After hearing what Shingen said, Kakashi said, "The competition field is like a battlefield. If you want to win the competition, you can't let down your guard at all."
Kakashi's aura was acquired through real fighting on the battlefield and in countless ANBU missions. When facing an opponent, he cannot let his guard down at all. This is his, or rather the survival rule for most ninjas.
"You are too gentle." Kakashi corrected, "In the world of ninja, killing is the norm."
"No," Zhenyan retorted, "Normal is not the same as normal."
Hearing the truth, Kakashi couldn't help but be startled. He suddenly recalled something that happened a long time ago...
Shingon once hired Zabuza and Haku to secretly help Naruto and Sasuke complete their mission, and said that he would protect the two until the ninja world no longer needed children to fight. At that time, he thought Shingon's idea was naive, but Shingon really did it...
All along, Zhenyan's words and deeds were out of tune with the world before their eyes, but now it seems that Zhenyan is right, and because they are used to everything in front of them, they numbly ignore that normality is not the same as normal...
Kakashi suddenly laughed and said, "You are right."
Even so, in the following duel, Kakashi still showed his full aura and his murderous intent did not diminish at all...
"Kakashi, if you continue to release your murderous aura, I will use my mouth to silence you!" Shingon couldn't help but say.
"It is against the rules to use mouth-to-mouth tactics during a match," Kakashi reminded.
"Isn't it cheating if you disturb me with your murderous aura?" Zhenyan said unconvinced.
"If there are no restrictions in the rules, it is naturally allowed." Kakashi said.
Mantra: “…………”
"Give me the racket." A voice suddenly came from the side. The two turned around and found it was Obito.
Obito came over at some point, walked up to Shingon and extended his hand.
When Shingon saw that it was Obito, his eyes immediately lit up. He passed the ball to him and encouraged him, "Come on, Obito, kill Kakashi without leaving a single piece of armor!"
Obito responded and looked at Kakashi, "Kakashi, your little tricks won't work on me."
The opponent changed to Obito, Kakashi's expression became even more murderous, and he said: "Then give it a try."
Obito held the racket in his hand, turned his wrist, and the ball turned into a stream of light and flew towards Kakashi...
Kakashi's reaction was also very quick, and the ball was hit back quickly...
Obito and Kakashi fought back and forth, both of them looked murderous, and Shinko felt that it was more like a life-and-death duel between the two than a game of basketball...
The final result of the duel was that Obito won. Obito returned the racket to Shinon, who took the racket and said happily as if he had won the game: "Obito-kun is so mighty and domineering!"
Obito was obviously in a good mood, and he said to Kakashi: "Kakashi, this is the Uchiha territory."
Kakashi looked at the two of them in silence. Not long ago, they were at loggerheads with each other, but now, facing him, they stood on a united front...
Kakashi sighed tiredly. Just as he was about to put down his racket, two more people came over.
"Are you guys practicing too?" Shisui asked.
"Yeah." Shingon nodded and explained to Shisui and Itachi who had just come over, "In order to thank Kakashi for recommending me as an ambassador and mascot, I specially invited Kakashi to come and play basketball."
Itachi has decided to participate in the sports meet. He has been looking for an opponent recently. After hearing what Shingen said, he looked at Kakashi and said, "Senior Kakashi, do you want to spar with me?"
Kakashi: “…………”
Kakashi looked at the pure-blooded Uchiha in front of him. He put down his racket and said, "I still have official business to attend to."
Kakashi did have some official business to attend to, as he had suddenly discovered that the Games might need another rule added.
For big families like the Uchiha and Hyuga that have special bloodline limits, if the number of participants is not restricted, then it is estimated that others will not have the opportunity to excel in some events.
After returning, Kakashi discussed with the Kages of several other ninja villages and finally decided to add another rule to the sports meeting, which is that the number of participants from each family in each event cannot exceed three.
The new rules did not have much impact on Uchiha, because no matter how many people participated, there were only three top three, and this year Uchiha's main player was Itachi.
Shingon believes that if Itachi takes action, he will be able to take back the championship.
As for the remaining Uchiha, they can also participate in other events besides table tennis. For example, Sasuke chose several events besides table tennis.
Previously, Sasuke and Naruto's duel in the Valley of the End did not determine the winner, so the two agreed to participate in the sports meeting together to see who would win the championship.
In addition to Naruto and Sasuke, many other ninjas from Konoha also signed up. Sports are new and challenging for ninjas, so they are very popular.
As the organizer of this event, Konoha also began to prepare in full swing.
The first is the venue for the opening ceremony. There is a large venue in Konoha Village, which was also used to host the Kazekage during the previous Chunin Exams.
This time it is a sports meet for the entire ninja world, and Kages from all villages will appear.
Therefore, the venue had to be rebuilt, at least to reflect the style of a large village of Konoha.
In addition, there are competition venues for various events.
Konoha has many training grounds and the Death Forest, which can all be used as competition venues. However, the training grounds and the Death Forest are open-air environments, while some sports require indoor environments, so Konoha also needs to build some stadiums.
And architecture is what Zhenyan is good at.
Shingon took the drawings given by Kakashi and built the stadium easily.
After all the preparations were completed, Kakashi, as the Sixth Hokage of Konoha, personally called the Kages of each ninja village and invited them to come to Konoha to participate in the first Ninja Games. Thus, the first Ninja Games kicked off.
This Ninja Games is the first grand event since the alliance of the five major ninja villages.
To show seriousness, the Kages all dressed up in their best clothes, and the Ninjas all wore the ninja uniforms of their respective villages.
At the opening ceremony, the first team to appear was the Sand Village.
Gaara was wearing a Kazekage Yushin robe and a Kazekage veil, walking at the front of the formation, and following him were the Sand Village ninjas wearing the unified ninja uniforms.
The Sand Village's formation marched in unison, solemn and dignified, with a strong aura of going into battle to kill the enemy. When the formation walked to the center of the venue, the ninjas of the Sand Village shouted the slogan in unison: "The wind rises and the clouds surge, the dust and sand fly, the Sand Village is out, killing everyone!"
The entrance slogan was suggested by Zhenyan, who felt that this would create the atmosphere of a sports meeting.
As for the slogan of the Sand Village, Gaara once consulted Shingon, asking if it would be too ostentatious. Shingon said that they should show their attitude that no one else can do it but them.
After the Sand Village team entered with great momentum, the Kumo Village team came out next.
The formation of the Hidden Cloud Village is led by the black-skinned, wild-looking Raikage. Apart from the Raikage, the other ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village also have a rough style.
The battle of the Cloud Hidden Village team entering the arena looked like a group of people going out for a fight, and the slogans they shouted were full of dominance: "The top of Cloud Mountain, overlooking the world, when Cloud Hidden Village comes out, who dares to compete for the first place!"
After the Hidden Cloud Village, the next team to appear was the Hidden Cloud Village team.
The Tsuchikage led the formation of the Iwagakure Village. Although the Tsuchikage was small in stature, the Iwagakure Village team he led was very powerful, and the slogan he shouted was also very inspiring: "The power of the Iwagakure Village is as solid as a rock, indestructible and unstoppable!"
After Iwagakure, it is the representative team of Kirigakure. Kirigakure is a village on the sea, and the ninja uniforms of Kirigakure are also blue like the sea.
When the formation of the Hidden Mist Village entered the arena, it was like a surging ocean wave, rushing in, and the slogan was the most magnificent: "Surging like a mighty force, swallowing up the mountains, overturning the rivers and seas, here comes the Hidden Mist Village!"
After the four major ninja villages appeared, the Hidden Rain Village team followed.
The leader of the Hidden Rain Village formation is Nagato. Compared with the previous teams, the Hidden Rain Village seems to be much gentler. Even the slogans they shout out are full of "love": "Feel love, think about love, accept love, understand love, and let the world be filled with love!"
Following closely behind the Hidden Rain Village is the Akatsuki Organization team. Since Nagato will lead the Hidden Rain Village and Shingon will stay in Konoha as the image ambassador and mascot, the Akatsuki Organization was handed over to Obito.
Although the Akatsuki organization's representative team is small in number, they all wear the same black robe with red clouds. Under the leadership of Obito, each of them has his own style, and they appear on the stage like a boy band on a fashion show.
When they reached the center of the venue, everyone shouted out the core values of the Xiao organization: "Science, faith, wealth, art, ideals, friendship, family, and peace!"
After the Akatsuki organization, it was the Moon team. Originally, the Moon team only had one person, Toneri Ōtsutsuki, but since coming to the Ninja world with the Uchiha, Toneri went to visit the Hyuga family.
Toneri and the Hyuga family are both from the Otsutsuki Hamura lineage, so this time Toneri participated in the competition as a representative of the Moon, and the Hyuga family specially sent some ninjas to support him.
After the Moon team, several small ninja villages came out. After all the teams entered one after another, the last team to come was the Konoha Village team.
Kakashi, wearing the Hokage's Shinto robe, walked at the front of the formation, and following behind Kakashi were the Konoha ninjas who were going to participate in the competition.
As the organizer of this sports meeting, the Konoha team has the largest number of people, and the team is mighty and looks quite spectacular.
As the host and the last team to perform, the Konoha ninjas showed their greatest enthusiasm and shouted out the slogan that belongs only to Konoha: "Where the leaves fly, the fire will also continue. The flames will illuminate the village and make new trees sprout! *"
At this point, all the teams have appeared.
In the main venue of Konoha Village, the ninjas who came to participate in the competition took their seats in the audience seats, while the Kages from various villages were invited to take their seats on the podium.
Sitting in the main seat at the podium is Kaguya Otsutsuki, and on both sides of Kaguya Otsutsuki are Shingon and Black Zetsu. In addition, there are also former Hokage who were specially invited back.
After the Kages from each village took their seats, Shingon couldn't help but say to Kakashi, "I think our village's slogan is the least inspiring. You should have listened to my advice."
Originally, Shingon wanted to help design Konoha's slogan, but Kakashi refused.
After hearing what Manabu said, Kakashi couldn't help but stare with dead fish eyes. He didn't know whether asking Manabu to design a slogan would be impressive or not. He only knew that the slogan designed by Manabu was definitely not something that ordinary people could shout out.
Just listen to the slogans of the Hidden Rain Village and the Akatsuki Organization, which were taught by Shingon, and you will know that without a strong sense of conviction, ordinary people really can't shout it out...
In order to prevent the Konoha ninja from withdrawing from the competition because of the shameful slogan, Kakashi had to refuse the truth...
At this time, everyone in the venue was already in place, and the next step was the speech by the Chakra Ancestor.
Since the Chakra Ancestor is not good at speaking, this segment is represented by the image ambassador and mascot Shingon, who speaks on behalf of the grandmother.
Zhenyan walked to the front of the stage and delivered a sincere and generous speech in front of everyone.
Dear Ninja Friends:
"Today is the opening day of the first Ninja Games, and I am very honored to have the opportunity to stand here and meet you all.
"Here, on behalf of the Chakra Ancestor and Konoha, I would like to extend a warm welcome and cordial greetings to all the ninja friends present.
"Looking back at the past, the Ninja World was in constant war. Our ancestors wrote their own glorious stories in their time. Now, the chapter of war has ended, and a brand new picture is about to unfold.
"In the new chapter, war will forever become history and be remembered by us. Ninjas are no longer born for war, and ninja skills are no longer weapons to hurt compatriots. The future will be a new era of working together.
“We bid farewell to the past, but the era of ninjas will not end, and the spirit of ninjas will continue to be passed on, and sports are a new way for us to carry forward the spirit.
"The development of sports can not only strengthen our bodies, but also improve our spirit and will, so let us ignite our youth on the field!
"Let us strive to be higher, faster and stronger!
"Let us work hard and strive for a better tomorrow!
"Let us work together to create our own glory!
"I declare the first Ninja Games officially open!"
After Zhenyan finished his speech, the entire venue was silent for a moment, and then burst into thunderous applause. !
