Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide!

Chapter 242 Jonin Promotion Ceremony!

Kirigakure's 46th year and Konoha's 47th year.

Kirigakure Village, Ninja School Auditorium.

This auditorium, built to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Ninja School, was already packed with countless villagers watching the excitement.

The auditorium, which was originally designed to accommodate 10,000 people, was now packed to the brim. Even at this time, villagers from the outside were pouring in, and even the entire ninja school was filled with people. , causing the ninjas of the Kirigakure security force to rush out here to block the outside crowd and maintain order.

After the dissuasion of the ninjas from the Kirigakure security force, the crazy crowd finally regained some order, allowing them to breathe a little.

"Huh...really, I don't know where so many people came from. Don't these guys have to go to work?"

A ninja who had just been promoted to chuunin and had just joined the Kirigakure security force wiped the sweat from his forehead and complained involuntarily.

Today was a big day, it was in the Ninja School, and the targets were the villagers of Kirigakure Village, so they couldn't use force no matter what.

All they could do was to create shadow clones, and then hold hands and rely on the strong physical fitness of the ninjas to forcefully "squeeze" order into the dense crowd.

This was not an easy job for a ninja who was used to killing, so he complained like this.

Compared with him, the other middle-aged man standing next to him was much calmer.

"Haha... After all, this is the first public jounin promotion ceremony in the history of Kirigakure Village and even the ninja world. It is understandable that they are so crazy... Even me, if it is not my duty, I would like to follow them. Come in and see the excitement!”

"Jounin...Oh, I really don't know when my strength will reach this level..."

"Not to mention the Jonin promotion ceremony this time. I heard that Master Kiden personally put on the Jonin chest badge for them. If I can have this day, it will be worth dying!"

Speaking of this, the young ninja's eyes were filled with infinite hope, and he couldn't help but imagine the scene of becoming a jounin and being awarded the title by Ghost Light Crescent Moon in front of everyone.

After all, that was Lord Ghost Light Crescent Moon!

After rising up in Kirigakure Village twelve years ago, in just a few years, he became famous in the ninja world, put out fires in Kirigakure, carried out reforms in the Ninja School, and colonized the Eastern Continent... Since then, the entire Kirigakure... Hidden Village can say without hesitation that it has entered the "Ghost Lantern Era".

Now twelve years have passed, and the image of Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon in Kirigakure Village has long been deified.

In particular, he repeatedly rejected the position of Water Shadow and was willing to take charge of Kirigakure Village as an elder, which moved all the villagers of Kirigakure Village to his high integrity.

What an honor it must be to have such a big man wear the Jounin breast badge for himself at the critical moment when he is promoted to Jounin?

but……

The young man sighed in his heart, knowing how unrealistic his wish was.

Even though he is already a chunin, he belongs to the fourth level in the nine-level ninja system of Kirigakure Village. He is only two levels away from the sixth level jounin, but these two levels are enough to clearly filter out. The difference between genius and mortal.

In his current situation, if he worked hard and made great contributions and received a large amount of contribution points, it would be possible to become an elite chuunin within ten years.

But if you want to become a Jonin... it really depends on luck and destiny.

The person next to him is one of the few civilian ninjas today who has not experienced the new education of the Demon Light New Moon. He is now in his thirties, and he is only in the same chuunin position as himself, which is enough to see this path. How difficult is it?

The middle-aged ninja glanced at his partner next to him and instantly understood what he was thinking at this time. He couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head without saying anything.

After all, when he was such an age, he once imagined whether he was one of those civilian geniuses who could become the first civilian jounin in Kirigakure Village since its founding.

But a dream is a dream after all. As time goes by, he gradually realizes his inherent shortcomings.

However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, compared to his peers, compared to those students who had just graduated from the ninja school and lost their lives at his hands, he was lucky enough.

"Oh, by the way, I heard that among the people who were promoted to jounin this time, there are a few children who are twelve or thirteen years old... If you calculate the time, you should not have graduated when they were in the ninja school, right?"

The middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something. He looked at his companions with a joking look on his face and asked, "Do you know those people?"

Hearing his colleague's words, the young chuunin's face instantly stiffened.

More than just acquaintance...

He would never forget how he, as a sixth-year student, fell in front of a group of first-year monsters who had just entered the school in the Ninja School ladder battle.

A cute little face, a scary face like a shark, and the insoluble ability to turn into water anytime and anywhere...

To put it bluntly, it was only then that he realized that age was nothing more than a joke in front of a genius.

As soon as he thought this, he quickly shook his head, dissipated his delusional thoughts about jounin, and concealed it:

"How could I possibly know them? I really want to get to know them...I had already graduated when they entered school, so there is no way we could interact..."

"Why don't we talk about the first civilian Jonin? I know him..."

At the same time, the two of them were talking outside the door about the protagonist of this Jonin promotion ceremony.

In the auditorium, the air was extremely solemn. All the people who entered the venue early had serious expressions and looked at the high platform in front of them with bright eyes.

Because this is unprecedented in the ninja world, Kirigakure's first jounin promotion ceremony is about to begin!

"Welcome all guests..."

On the stage, Sara, who had completely become a member of the Hidden Mist Village and had completely lost her former Queen of Loulan Kingdom appearance, was wearing a bright red dress and assumed the role of host with a calm expression, and began to introduce the origin of this conference. .

"...Now, let's invite the protagonists of this Jonin promotion ceremony!"

Sarah raised her right hand high, and with her movement, the lights in the entire auditorium instantly went out, and a bright beam of light shone straight on the other side of the high platform.

"They are...'The Flower of Kirigakure', the eleven-year-old Terumi Mei!"

Snapped!

The searchlight was turned on, shining directly on Terumi Mei's body, revealing her pretty face covered by long chestnut hair.

The graceful figure that has begun to grow, paired with the slit blue dress, actually makes people see a hint of charm in this girl's body.

"...'Tailless Beast', the twelve-year-old Mikigaki Kisame!"

Hidden in the darkness, Kisame Kisaki finally showed his face, but with the strong light in front and darkness behind him, his shark face looked even more ferocious.

At only twelve years old, he is already over 1.8 meters tall. This height combined with his terrifying face can't help but make people feel intimidated.

What was even more surprising was that the same shark that was originally in the hands of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost somehow found its way into his hands and was held upside down on his shoulder with one hand.

"...'Gui Deng Second', eleven-year-old Gui Deng Full Moon!"

The genius of the Ghost Lantern clan, known as the "Second Ghost Lantern New Moon", leaned lazily on his double sword, Flounder, and greeted everyone in the audience.

"...'Genius Thunderbolt Ninja', thirteen-year-old Yuri Ringo!"

"...'Kijin', thirteen-year-old Zabuza Momochi!"

Accompanied by two loud shouts, two equally young teenagers stepped onto the high platform. They held the decapitating sword and the thunder sword fang in their hands respectively. They were obviously members of the new generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

The audience in the audience, especially the villagers who came to watch the fun and a few spies from other villages, saw that the jounin promoted this time turned out to be such a group of young children with hairy faces. A look of surprise appeared on his face involuntarily.

The reporters in the audience from Kirigakure Morning News, Water Country Daily, and Ninja World Weekly also seized this opportunity and started taking photos.

Flash lights flashed one after another for a while, making the people around him unable to open their eyes.

Very good, the goal of getting a head start has been achieved.

Sara looked at the gasps of the audience and felt very satisfied.

Just like Zhang Ailing's famous saying, "The shortest way to a woman's heart is..." After these six years of hard work, she has completely become the shape of a ghost lantern and a crescent moon, and her current thoughts are naturally based on him. position.

However, since the Kirigakure Village wanted to do this "in the history of history", it was naturally impossible for this Jonin promotion ceremony to be limited to just these few people. After a pause, Sara quickly introduced the others.

"...'Uzumaki Seal' sixteen-year-old Uzumaki Masaaki!"

"...'Bone Demon', seventeen-year-old Kaguya is dead to the bone!"

"..."

"...'Swordsman', twenty-two-year-old Takeo Saegeda!"

Just when the oldest promoted Takeo Saegeda was introduced, a burst of warm applause suddenly broke out from the audience.

This immediately made those who didn't know the reason feel strange. After all, those who were younger than him and from better backgrounds didn't see cheers when they came on the stage. They really didn't understand why this person got such treatment when he came out.

However, Sara was not surprised by this, because this Takeo Saneda was the first Jonin born in the true sense of the word in Kirigakure Village's history.

As the biggest achievement of the ten years of reform of the Ghost Light Crescent Ninja School, his promotion was naturally placed on this occasion.

Born as an orphan, he climbed from a ninja school student to a jounin in just sixteen years. Naturally, he has already become the hope of civilian ninjas. It is not surprising to receive such applause.

After everyone's applause faded, Sara finally introduced the last candidate for Jonin promotion.

"The last one below...he is Lord Xinyue's adopted son and disciple, 'Hualong', the ten-year-old medicine master Kabuto!"

Bang bang bang!

As the words fell, all the searchlights in the venue were shining in a dark corner. The ten-year-old pharmacist straightened his glasses and stepped onto the high platform with a shy smile under the eyes of everyone in disbelief. .

As Kabuto Yakushi came on stage, there was a sudden silence in the venue.

"What did she just say? Kabuto Yakushi is also a candidate for Jonin promotion this time?"

Naturally, there is no one in the audience who doesn't know Kabuto Yakushi. After all, as the founding disciple and adopted son of Ghost Light Crescent Moon, Kabuto Yakushi is naturally quite recognizable among the villagers of Kirigakure Village.

In addition, this child is young but very polite to others. He does not have the naughtiness of a child of his age or the arrogance of everyone's background. Naturally, he has won considerable popularity in the village.

Although everyone knew that the child's talent must be extraordinary to be treated like this by Ghost Light Crescent Moon, everyone was still incredulous about this ten-year-old jounin.

After all, even Ghost Light Crescent Moon only became a Jonin at the age of twelve. Doesn't this comparison mean that this child's talent is more terrifying than Ghost Light Crescent Moon?

"Very good. It seems that the topic of this ten-year-old jounin is really amazing. Now we are about to implement the 'star ninja' strategy, which is expected to be very successful."

Sarah looked at the reactions of the people on the field and nodded.

After all, she had once been the queen of a country, so Sara naturally knew that Israel could not last long, so she tried her best to get a publicity job from Guideng Xinyue.

This "star ninja" strategy was what she thought of under the guidance of Ghost Lantern and Crescent Moon as the foundation for her own family and life.

Kabuto Yakushi, a ten-year-old jonin, Terumi Mei, a beauty with both image and temperament, and Takeo Saeda, the first civilian jounin in history, the above three are the first batch of "Kirigakure" that Sara wants to introduce to the ninja world. star".

Or "Kirigakure idol".

With strong strength, a dashing image, and an empathic background... coupled with the combination of factors such as being the first crab to eat popular entertainment, how can this combination not become an instant hit?

After all, the famous five-star critic MacArthur once said that idol effectiveness never goes out of style.

With the popularity of this star group, those civilians or ninjas from the Xiaonin Village who want to become the next Takeo Saneda, why not run to the Kingdom of Water with all their lives?

All the above thoughts flashed through Sara's mind, and the most important thing now was the Jonin promotion ceremony.

"Finally, let us solemnly invite the first elder of Kirigakure Village, Mr. Kiden Xinyue, to the stage to wear the jounin chest badge for them!"

Bang bang bang!

Amid everyone's respectful looks and warm applause, Gui Deng Xinyue walked briskly onto the high platform, completed handshakes/hugs, cordial greetings, wearing chest badges, and the final group photo with everyone on the field. Wait for the link.

I didn't waste too much time on these links. After all, I must have talked to them privately in advance to express my wish to become a Jonin. Everything now is just for publicity.

After all the above links were over, Gui Deng Xinyue did not leave, but stood on the high platform and started the final speech.

"I'm very happy to see so many young talents in the village. In the past few years, the number of Jonin has more than doubled, and the village's economy has been improving every year... This fully shows that Understanding the importance of reform in Ninja Village, we must always persist..."

After the above words were finished, Gui Deng Xinyue's face became solemn, and he changed the subject and started his real purpose.

"...However, while we have achieved such proud results, the international situation is getting worse and worse."

"Evil Konoha has developed rapidly under the leadership of Shimura Danzo. In recent years, the number of Konoha ninjas has quadrupled, military expenditures have continued to increase, and more than ten small countries have been secretly controlled by it. Its wolfish ambitions are clear. Reveal!”

Ghost Light Crescent introduced the development of Konoha with a serious face, and then said to the people in the audience solemnly:

"...So, faced with this situation, I have only eight words to give to everyone here."

"That is……"

"Give up your illusions and prepare for war!"
