Chapter 419 Children's Wedding
Bang bang bang!
Huge fireworks drifted across the sky.
Giant divine dragons, phoenixes, and other flying beasts and creatures flew by from time to time.
They formed a beautiful scene in the sky.
Beyond the flying beasts and creatures, various insects also soared, creating a magnificent ancient spectacle.
"What's going on? Why are there so many Summoning Beasts?"
Naruto, Hinata, and the Twelve Strongest Ninja walked to the wedding plaza, marveling at the complexity and diversity of the wedding, when they saw this scene in the sky.
Those giant beasts were all as large as Gamaryu.
Gamaryu saw Naruto and the others and said, "Those are Summoning Beasts from other clans. I heard that Satoru spent a lot of money to hire so many Chunin and Jonin to summon these giant beasts for a splendid wedding."
"Those insects are really good." Shino's face broke into a smile when he saw the insects, surprised to see them there.
Inuzuka Kiba also saw them, and there were even dogs from the Inuzuka Clan, enlarged by Ninjutsu, flying on aerial vehicles.
Woof woof ~
Akamaru barked upon seeing this. Why wasn't he up there?
Inuzuka Kiba: "Hmm, maybe you're too young and not very obedient."
"Woof woof ~"
"You say you're obedient, and you are, but there must be a reason why you're not there."
Inuzuka Kiba said.
Woof woof ~
Akamaru was at a loss. He couldn't go and settle scores with Sensei Satoru, as he was also his teacher.
He had studied with Inuzuka Kiba back then.
Shikadai looked at the two Summoning Beasts in the middle: "Dad, what kind of Summoning Beasts are those two? They look so majestic and dignified."
"That's a dragon, a creature with a deer's horns, a camel's head, a rabbit's eyes, a snake's neck, a clam's belly, a fish's scales, an eagle's claws, a tiger's palms, and an ox's ears. According to Dad's intelligence, this is the orphanage director's Summoning Beast, one of the highest achievements of the Technology Development Bureau, an artificial Summoning Beast. It's so amazing, I really want to ride it."
A yellow-haired child, holding Ino's hand, walked up to him and said.
Shikadai: "Hello, I'm Shikadai. And the other one?"
"That's a phoenix, my dad's Summoning Beast. Its true form is an eagle, but it's disguised with a Transformation Jutsu to perform in coordination with the other Summoning Beast. Isn't it cool?"
Sakura also walked over with a girl.
The girl's small face showed a slight resemblance to Sasuke.
She spoke with a proud expression.
"So they really are all Summoning Beasts! I thought it was a Genjutsu!" Shikadai exclaimed.
Shikamaru: "A wedding is a joyous occasion. Besides the staff, everything else is alive. Only this way does it symbolize something truly beautiful. Otherwise, with Satoru's abilities, he could make the wedding even more magnificent."
"I see, I want my wedding to be this magnificent too someday."
Sarada's eyes sparkled.
Sakura's face fell upon hearing this.
How could that be? Their family didn't have that much money to compare with Sensei Satoru.
Sensei Satoru's family owned many companies, all large multinational trading corporations.
They had become a conglomerate.
Even the Uchiha Clan at its peak couldn't achieve this level.
"Sarada, don't think that way. We don't need to make it so extravagant, you know. Simple is fine. Your dad and I had a simple wedding." Sakura's long-unseen second personality emerged from her mind, punching within her.
She wanted a wedding like this too!
Sarada nodded upon hearing this. She wanted to be like her father.
"But why isn't Dad back for such an important occasion?" In Sarada's opinion, with such a grand wedding, her father should have returned.
"Haha, because this is just a wedding, and it's Sensei Satoru's children's wedding. In the adult world, other people's weddings aren't that important," Sakura could only reply.
"Is that so!" Sarada seemed to understand, yet not quite.
"Where's Dad?" Inojin looked around but didn't see his father.
Ino smiled upon hearing this: "He went to help out. You'll see him very soon. He'll definitely look very handsome."
Thump thump thump!
Just as everyone was discussing the massive Summoning Beasts that had appeared, drumbeats and music drifted down from the sky.
As the music played, it felt as if one could step on auspicious clouds and dance among them.
Following the sound, they looked up.
The giant beasts and insects in the sky spread out in formation, forming a path to the ground, as if to welcome something.
"That's the old Ino–Shika–Chō and them."
"It's Grandpa, Grandpa looks so handsome!"
A chubby little girl with dark skin, watching the people in the sky, kept cheering while tugging on Choji's small hand.
In the sky, clouds billowed, parting in the middle to reveal a massive gateway before their eyes.
That gateway was formed of auspicious clouds, with two gigantic figures standing on either side. They were Akimichi Choza and another person from the Akimichi Clan, both in their enlarged states.
Sai was also there, maintaining the auspicious clouds that supported everyone.
From the horizon, a long red carpet descended, passing through the gateway and landing on the wedding stage in the plaza, between two frogs.
Thump thump thump!
As everyone watched in awe, two pairs of brides and grooms appeared.
Like sage from the heavens, each arm-in-arm with their partner, they gracefully descended onto the red carpet, slowly approaching from afar.
"Damn, this wedding is too spectacular, isn't it? Isn't it a bit too high-profile!"
Tenyu, holding Hinoko's hand, had a smile on his face, but inwardly he was constantly complaining.
This spectacle was even grander than Naruto's. And it was so magnificent.
No wonder Dad was so confident that he would satisfy them.
And he had invited so many adults; besides the staff, nothing was made by Pupil Setting Hand; it was all done by hiring people.
Hinoko, beside him, was also beaming with happiness. After dating for so long, they were finally getting married.
She was truly so happy.
He was indeed the man she had recognized in school since childhood, hehe.
The other pair of newlyweds on the other side.
Maki and Takeshi were also equally awestruck.
Especially this entrance.
It was even more breathtaking than seeing Pain flying high during the Pain's Invasion movie at the cinema.
It was also more stunning than Uchiha Madara's battle against the Six Kage.
"Takeshi, we're finally married. When we have a baby, shall we prepare such a grand wedding for our baby too?" Maki had already entered a fantasy, wishing to see her future child have such a wedding.
"A wedding of this scale can probably only be achieved by Senior Satoru. If it were up to us, we'd probably have to rely on Pupil Setting Hand to arrange it."
Real people and Ninjutsu were still different, and Takeshi understood this.
With their abilities, it would likely be difficult.
Moreover, Satoru couldn't possibly host a wedding of this scale for every descendant; the chances were probably slim.
The newlyweds passed through the gateway on the red carpet, slowly descending from the sky to the center of the wedding plaza.
Amidst everyone's gaze.
