Chapter 967 Conference and Invitation

What is this old man really thinking? Why tell him such a thing?

"No, no, this Chunin Promotion Examination Conference is different from other times."

As if he could see Jiraiya's confusion, the Third Hokage continued, "For this Chunin Promotion Examination Conference, Konoha will serve as the host and invite ninjas from neighboring countries that are friendly with Konoha to participate in this Chunin Promotion Conference."

"Multiple countries participating?"

"Yes, at that time, there will not only be local ninjas from Konoha, but also ninjas from some small countries such as the Grass Country, the Sound Country, and so on. The most important thing is that the Sand Village from the Wind Country will also participate. And at the same time, the Daimyo of the Fire Country, the Daimyo of the Wind Country, and other dignitaries from the countries participating in the exam will also be invited to watch the ceremony." The Third Hokage said slowly.

This multi-national Chunin promotion assessment conference is a way to publicize Konoha's strength to the ninja world.

In recent years, due to a series of events such as the Nine-Tails incident and the Uchiha clan extermination incident, Konoha's status in the ninja world has gradually declined.

The purpose of this multi-national Chunin promotion assessment conference is to regain the right to speak for Konoha.

And warn some countries that have been making sneaky moves against Konoha to restrain their actions.

"So Jiraiya, you should stay in Konoha for the time being." The Third Hokage looked at Jiraiya with a sincere look.

"Is that so?" That organization might be about to do something bad to Naruto, and Konoha was about to hold a multi-national Chunin promotion conference.

What a turbulent time.

"Okay, I understand." Jiraiya finally nodded.

After all, this village is Konoha.

"Then I'll leave first!!" After saying that, Jiraiya turned around and walked outside.

"I hope that this Chunin Promotion Conference can be held smoothly!" The Third Hokage turned around and looked at the Hokage Rock in the distance through the window.

There was an unremovable worry in his eyes.

For a period of time afterwards, Uzumaki Naruto continued to practice with Jiraiya.

And under the guidance of Jiraiya, he successfully signed a summoning contract with Myoboku Mountain, one of the three major summoning beast holy places in the ninja world.

After Jiraiya removed the seal on Uzumaki Naruto.

Uzumaki Naruto's ability to control chakra increased greatly in an instant.

After signing the summoning contract, Naruto successfully summoned the toad boss of Myoboku Mountain, Gamabunta, during training.

Kakashi is also training Uchiha Sasuke in various aspects.

At the same time, news that Konoha was about to hold a multi-national Chunin promotion conference began to spread in the ninja world.

In the Land of Fire, in a magnificent palace.

Da da da! !

The crisp sound of wooden clogs hitting the shiny floor tiles.

"Your Highness, this is the invitation sent by the Third Hokage to invite you to attend the Multi-National Chunin Promotion Conference." A girl dressed as a palace maid lowered her head and placed the gold-plated invitation in her hand on the desk of this important man.

"Oh?" His Highness, who was sitting at the desk reviewing government affairs, reached out and took the invitation handed over by the palace maid.

Gently opening the gold-embossed invitation, it was clearly written, "From His Highness Makami Nakatazuki."

There are not many words on the invitation, just the time and place.

But the final signature belongs to the current ruler of Konoha, the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now that Shin Kagami and Shuki are the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Konoha invites him to attend the ceremony for the first time.

It has to be more solemn.

The Third Hokage's move was also intended to strengthen the relationship between Konoha and the Land of Fire.

"Konoha?!" Shin Kagami Nakata raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had thought of something, and the corners of his mouth also slightly curled up.

"Who is sending the invitation this time?" asked Makagami Nakata with some curiosity.

"Your Highness, it's Lord Asuma of Konoha!!" The maid still bowed her head and answered respectfully.

"Huh, it turns out it's not him!!" Hearing the maid's words, Shin Kagami Nakata seemed to be relieved, but also a little disappointed.

Because the voice of Makagami Nakadashi was too low, the maid in front of him did not hear what Makagami Nakadashi said for a while.

"?? Your Highness, what did you just say?"

"Lord Asuma of Konoha is still waiting for your reply." The maid did not hear clearly what Makagina Heshu said, so she looked up at Makagina Heshu.

This is because the maid is the personal maid of Shin Kagami Nakata, so she dared to ask such a question.

"It's okay!" As soon as Makamikaze Heshu saw the maid's expression, he knew she had misunderstood.

So he waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

However, Konoha invited me to participate in the Chunin Promotion Conference this time.

The name of a country, especially one of the five major countries like the Fire Nation.

All of Shinkagami Nakata's itineraries are planned.

That's why Asuma was waiting at the door of the hall, awaiting a reply from Shin Kagami Nakata.

"Go tell them, Asuma. Just tell them that I will be there on time for this grand event held in Konoha."

"By the way, you should go to the Fire Temple. Please ask Master Di Lu from the Fire Temple to come and see me." Zhen Jingmingheshu casually placed the invitation in his hand on the side of his desk.

He gave the order to the maid who was kneeling in front of him with her head bowed.

Shin Kagami Nakata went to Konoha to attend the Chunin viewing ceremony.

Then the safety of Zhen Jingming and Shu becomes the biggest problem.

According to Konoha's original plan, Konoha's ninjas were to come and protect Shin Kagami Nakata and Shu.

But Shin Kagami Nakata directly refused, saying that the Land of Fire also had masters of the same level who protected the Twelve Ninjas.

Letting the Twelve Guardian Ninjas protect his own safety can also prevent the Daimyo of the Land of Fire from being looked down upon within Konoha.

That's why Shin Kagami Nakatashu asked Di Lu from the Fire Temple to come.

Ji Lu can be said to be the strongest ninja among the Twelve Guardian Ninjas.

Next is Asuma Sarutobi, who was sent to the Land of Fire by the Third Hokage to gain experience in gilding his skills and is now waiting outside the palace.

"Yes, Your Highness!" The maid nodded and bowed.

Then he slowly backed away.

When the maid reached the door, she immediately saw Asuma who was waiting.

Asuma also saw the personal maid beside the real mirror name and tree.

"Lord Asuma, His Highness has agreed to attend the ceremony!!" the maid replied to Asuma with a smile.

"Okay, Konoha will definitely wait for Your Highness Kazuki." Asuma's face looked particularly happy.

The land of grass.

Several ninjas were walking on a path in the woods.

There are only three people from the Land of Grass who are participating in Konoha's Multi-National Chunin Promotion Conference and are qualified to be promoted to Chunin.

With the addition of an elite Chunin to lead the team, they can barely form a small team.

"Teacher, can we really be promoted to Chunin this time?" A blue-haired boy asked his team leader.
