Homura was very accurate about the time. Just that night, the Kirigakure delegation also arrived. Of course, because it was too late, not many people paid attention because everyone was preparing for the upcoming conference.
One day is very easy to get through, especially for these ninjas who are recuperating and practicing. Qi didn't even feel anything, and he had already discovered that the time for the start of the conference had arrived.
But to his surprise, the Shinobi World conference was unexpectedly formal, because it actually had an opening ceremony!
Of course, the opening ceremony is an opening ceremony. This is not the earth. It is not the kind of opening ceremony that gives you a show, although this can also be regarded as a show.
"Please invite delegations from all villages and organizations to come on stage!"
Waterfall Ninja, who was in charge of presiding over the conference, said loudly, and he didn't know what method he used. His voice spread throughout the cave and was clearly audible.
At the prompt of this voice, participating teams from all over Shinobi World entered the stage one after another - that is, standing in the center of the cave, on a super large arena...
Among these teams, only a dozen or so are from ninja villages, and many more are from so-called neutral organizations, that is, they work for whoever pays them.
First Although one country, one village was imitated by various powerful countries, not all countries have the ability to provide ninja villages. In this case, many ninja families have established alliances imitating the structure of ninja villages. Their customers are those countries that cannot provide for ninja villages.
Since they are not directly supplied by the country, although their overall strength is far inferior to that of Ninja Village, they are more independent. Of course, these organizations will still find a certain country as a place to stay and nominally belong to this country. Therefore, the differences between countries are also very large. Some have several organizations in one territory, and some have none. As for the Shinobi World Conference, these organizations are also participants.
In addition, there is another kind of team. This kind of team does not come from the ninja village, nor from the so-called neutral organization, but directly from those ninja families who are directly loyal to the nobles. This kind of team is also the most numerous, almost the sum of the first two.
The surroundings of the arena were now filled with people, not only from various ninja villages, but also some masters who clearly looked like ordinary people. However, the clothes on their bodies and the smell of their gestures told others that they were not ordinary ordinary people. They were a group of people who held various rights in the secular world and were called aristocrats.
The spectators were very quiet, and they were waiting patiently. The Shinobi World conference is also considered a major event of Shinobi World. Compared with the Shinobi World battle that cannot be watched, this one is much more fun, and in terms of level, it is a duel between the top masters of the new generation, and it is much more exciting than the Chunin Ninja Exams that is full of lower-level ninjas.
In comparison, the hundreds of teams in the arena are not so civilized. The organizations to which these teams belong are not friendly to each other. The hatred they form will last until the end of the world.
The best evidence is that these blood is full of violence factors. The young and energetic ghosts have been dishonest since they came on stage. Apart from fighting directly without real swords and guns, they can do almost everything else. So after this group of high-level gangsters finally assembled in the ring, they were already full of murderous intent, and they could kill into a mass immediately with just one word.
And they actually have a lot of people. There are basically not many teams like Konoha that only have a few people. Even those family teams have more than ten people as base members, and there are substitutes for those with more people. If you add them all up, the total number of people is thousands. If you want to have a group fight, it is definitely very exciting.
Of course, the so-called opening ceremony of the Shinobi World conference is not something like setting off fireworks and performing cultural programs. They can quickly fulfill their wishes.
"I think everyone already knows the rules of the conference very well."
Looking coldly at the group of ninjas below, Waterfall Ninja, who presided over the conference and was also the chief referee, got full of energy and roared,
"This is just one time for me. The Shinobi World conference focuses on communication and will never allow malicious killing. This is a rule established by the five major shadows. As the organizer, the referee of the conference will only enforce it and will not listen to anyone's complaints. If you are unwilling, you can withdraw now!"
On the main stage high above, Takigakure, the judges, who are mainly jonins, are centered here, lined up in a circle, and they will be responsible for rescuing people immediately when a situation that may lead to death occurs.
"Very good, it seems that none of you have withdrawn, so you are willing to abide by the rules of the conference!"
After waiting for about half a minute, seeing that no one in the audience made a sound, the name Waterfall Ninja nodded with satisfaction.
"I think everyone knows the next project very well. Yes, in order to save time, select the real strong ones, and eliminate those time-wasting bastards. According to the convention, the first game of the conference will be an undifferentiated melee involving all teams! Now, you have ten minutes to find a position you are satisfied with!"
Almost at the moment he finished shouting these words, the breathing of the thousands of ninjas in the audience had obviously become faster, and the distance between them was no longer as "intimate" as before, and they were already stretched apart...
Especially those who had been "dirty" during the gathering just now had their eyes gleaming fiercely, looking for the culprit.
Among these people, the most relaxed one is the Five Great Shinobi Villages team. Their overall strength is there. No one dares to mess with these five teams when everyone is acting as a team, so they simply stand still.
Konoha was an exception at first, because there were only three of them, but when a blind guy just got a little closer, half of his teeth were knocked out by Qi's elbow without a word, and after he kicked him and rolled a few times, the others immediately moved away as far away as possible.
"Qi, the action is too big..."
Kakashi's expression on the side was a little twitching,
"You don't call this an action..."
"I didn't care about him, but the referee didn't care about me."
Qi Man didn't care. In his opinion, there was an obvious generation gap between him and this group of people. Even though they were already starting to attack, they still flinched. It would be polite not to put them there directly.
The Waterfall Ninja referees on the main stage are certainly not blind. Qi's big move has long been seen clearly by them who were monitoring the whole audience. However, just like Qi Suo, they not only ignored it, but also showed approval.
It seems that there is no generation gap between Qi and them...
"That guy is pretty good. He deserves to be from the Great Ninja Village."
One of the referees even said to his companion,
"I hope our village team will not take the initiative to provoke him later."
During the conversation, with the Waterfall Ninja referees silent, the formations of the participating teams gathered in the field had changed significantly. Except for Five Great Shinobi Villages, the other teams had dispersed far away, so that thousands of ninjas had completely spread out to occupy this ridiculously large arena.
And after everyone had spread out, ten minutes were up...
"Time is over, now I will announce the rules!"
Waterfall Ninja The chief referee sneered and made his final declaration,
"Calculate the time from when I announce the start to the end when the gongs and drums sound. All those who fall during this period will lose the qualification to participate in subsequent projects. Only those who are standing can continue! Now..."
He waved his hand suddenly,
"Start!"
