I came to the Inuzuka Clan to resolve this matter.
Now that the problem is solved, she needs to get on with other things!
They exchanged greetings and said goodbye.
After Senju Toka left, before the other Senju arrived.
Feeling deeply aggrieved, Inuzuka Retsu immediately inquired about the old man's situation.
"Second Uncle, why did you agree?"
"Aren't you the one who loves Furin the most?"
"Sigh!" Old Man Inuzuka Clan sighed, Teuchi Inuzuka Retsu, and whispered sternly, "Shinjin, where's your brain?"
"Go back after the ceremony. If you can't figure it out, don't go out!"
After saying that, he ignored his nephew and picked up the teacup on the table to drink his tea.
The Senju technique has been passed down for thousands of years, Clan has almost always made it clear.
They left the Furin and the body behind, but promised not to conduct experiments on the body.
They even said there would be results in a few years!
What can you possibly achieve by holding a corpse?
If you think about it from both sides, then it's fine.
Having collaborated with Qianshou for so many years, when has Senju ever done anything shameful?
He believed his nephew would understand once he calmed down.
The reason he can't see clearly now is because he was severely traumatized by the death of Furin, which has led to mental confusion!
Meanwhile, the Inuzuka Clan clan chief gradually came to understand the intricacies of the matter.
After the old man scolded Inuzuka Retsu, he quickly grabbed the guy and gave him a hint!
Not long after Senju Toka returned to the rear after resolving the Inuzuka Clan incident.
Inside those side halls, the four main characters of today's wedding have all completed their preparations.
"Clang!"
A member of the Senju Clan Members was observing the time, rang the large bell beside him.
However, even the two-meter-tall bell, which was specifically hung in the Senju Clan Temple, did not meet expectations.
Its sound echoed throughout the Senju Clan Compound with each strike!
Upon hearing this sound, the busy people outside gradually put down their tasks and headed towards the vicinity of the clan hall.
Meanwhile, the high-ranking members of various clans who were observing the ceremony inside the clan hall stopped talking and put down what they were holding.
They straightened their clothes and belongings and sat upright, facing the center!
Meanwhile, inside the nearby side halls, they also began their respective operations after the bell rang.
"Creak!"
A slight creaking sound came from the wooden door hinges.
The doors to the side halls of these clans all opened simultaneously.
The four— Uka Senju, Senju Chiharu, Senju Maki, and Tsunade— were already prepared.
Guided and supported by a servant, he stepped across the threshold of the side hall and placed his feet on the carpet that had been laid out in advance!
When the four people and their four teams arrived in front of the side hall, they immediately merged into one.
At this moment, the servants and other clansmen who had helped with the rescue withdrew, leaving only four people and two Senju Clan Elder at the scene.
After these steps were completed, Uka Senju and the others set off under the guidance of the Clan Elder.
The white shoes stepped onto the carpet and walked into the clan hall!
Amidst the mournful sounds of short flutes and copper bells.
Upon entering the ancestral hall, they began the wedding ceremony according to the established procedures.
Standing before the ancestral hall, we lit incense according to the proper rituals.
The four men accepted the cups of wine handed to them by the Clan Elder and then proceeded with the three offerings.
The bride and groom each drank three cups, one after the other, finishing each cup in three separate sips.
Sip nine times, three times nine degrees!
Every single movement was learned and understood in advance!
This is also a necessary step in a ritual wedding similar to the one performed in a previous life.
After completing these steps according to the rules, Uka Senju, Senju Chiharu, Senju Maki, and Tsunade began reciting their oaths before the ancestral hall filled with ancestors.
Finally, ending with "Husband Uka Senju, wife Senju Chiharu, Senju Maki, Tsunade, and April 1st, 31st year", they completed this step!
After the oath was placed on the Low Table and offered before the ancestors.
Several ladies stepped out from the crowd and tied sashes around the four of them.
After doing all this, give two high-fives.
The wedding preparations are now mostly complete!
The next step was to pay respects to relatives and guests one by one.
Finally, the four of them exchanged tokens!
The four people's little fingers were tied with red rope.
Clap clap clap! Applause erupted from the ancestral hall from those who had come to witness the ceremony!
Amidst the applause, Uka Senju, along with his three wives, bowed once more to both sides.
During the wedding ceremony, the servants, who had been prepared in advance, served drinks to the guests one by one.
Having accomplished all this, everyone in the clan hall drank the sake at the cry of "Cheers!"
With that, all the rituals of the wedding of Uka Senju and her three companions were completed.
The rest are the usual wedding food, drinks, and other things!
However, all of this was arranged by the Clan, and the four newlyweds only needed to be sent back to their new home according to the rules.
Of course, it was during this return journey that the four of them would pay their respects to other clansmen and guests.
I stepped onto the carpet that had been laid out and the flower petals that had just been scattered along the way.
The four walked and bowed as they fulfilled the tribespeople's request for a group photo.
It's usually only a ten-minute walk.
The four of them walked for almost two hours today.
Finally, seeing the expressions of the two flower girls who couldn't hold on any longer...
Uka Senju led his three wives into the new house!
Watching his three wives being led upstairs, Uka Senju, while changing her clothes, reached out and ruffled the head of six-year-old Nawaki, saying, "Don't look so sad. After we're done with these busy days, your brother-in-law will take you out for something delicious!"
Hearing my brother-in-law's words, I'm in charge of scattering flowers today.
After spending two hours Senju Nawaki on a ten-minute journey, Senju Nawaki raised an eyebrow and said, "Aren't you busy having a baby? You still have time to take me out to eat?"
Several of the Senju Aunts who had come to help immediately burst out laughing upon hearing this.
Hahaha~!
"Yes, your brother-in-law needs to focus on giving you a baby nephew first."
" Uka, keep it up! Even Nawaki is urging you on!"
"Haha, Uka, have Chiharu cook you lots of delicious food these next few days."
"Maybe not. Did you forget what Haruko said this morning?"
"Haha, yes, yes, yes!"
"My bad, I completely forgot about that!"
"Ha ha..."
How formidable are these married aunties?
He had already experienced it once before, back in the side hall!
Uka Senju hadn't expected that she would comfort her brother-in-law when she saw he was tired.
But in the end, he got himself into trouble?
His face, which was several decades old, blushed slightly.
Under the teasing of these aunties, he could only endure it with an awkward smile!
Of course, this also applies to the person who has put themselves in this situation again.
Aside from secretly glaring at him, he also decided in his heart to send his brother-in-law something in a few days.
The only pity is that there are no practice manuals in the Shinobi World, so he can only use those books on Ninja knowledge.
We should properly repay this brother-in-law who is currently learning Ninja knowledge!
Not understanding what the aunties were saying, Senju Nawaki was glared at.
He scratched his head, looking completely bewildered, and stared at his brother-in-law!
He didn't understand why he had put in so much effort today.
All I wanted was for my brother-in-law to promise to treat me to meals a few more times.
Why am I being glared at?
Unable to bear it any longer, he immediately got up and ran upstairs.
He absolutely has to tell his sister about what happened today!
After changing his clothes, Uka Senju went back to the banquet and dealt with his underlings.
In the master bedroom on the second floor of the new house, only three brides remained, each with different hair colors and charms, all dressed in white Muku gowns.
"Are we going to sit here forever?" Tsunade, with a few strands of light yellow hair peeking out from under her white hood, asked the two people in front of her.
Upon hearing this, the other two nodded and shook their heads, respectively.
???
Seeing the two different answers, Tsunade, who was wearing bridal makeup, immediately had several question marks appear above her head.
The two, who gave different reactions, subconsciously exchanged a glance!
Finally, at Senju Chiharu's prompting, Senju Maki, with her large blue eyes, shrugged and said, "What I mean by shaking my head is that this is my first marriage, and I don't know anything about it!"
After she finished speaking, she focused her gaze on the person who had nodded.
"..."
Upon hearing Maki's words and noticing her gaze, Senju Chiharu's smile froze for a moment.
Under their curious gazes, she really wanted to reply that this was also her first time getting married!
But... after thinking for a moment, she sighed and said, "As mentioned during yesterday's explanation of the rules, we need to wait for Uka to return today to proceed to the next step before the ceremony is completely finished."
"And then... we... slept together!"
Her cheeks flushed slightly after she finished speaking.
The two people listening almost had the same expression!
As the three of them looked down, their eyes involuntarily glanced at the 'large bed' in the bedroom, covered with white sheets!
It's huge!
It's so big that it can easily sleep six or seven people.
The bed was made directly by Uka Senju using Wood Release techniques.
All the bedding in my house was custom-made from a specialty store!
There's no way anyone would make such a big bed if it weren't standardized.
Although the Shinobi World does not prohibit polygamy.
But other people's wives and concubines are clearly distinguished!
Aside from lying together for a while when her husband is doing something fancy.
Wives and concubines would never sleep in the same bed!
However... the Uka Senju family is special; their three children will be the inheritors of the three lineages.
All three are equal 'wives'!
This led to the discovery of these rules when the Senju Clan Grounds were decorating the room.
Then, amidst the various solutions, Uka Senju subtly hinted at this one!
In his view, the camaraderie among the three could always ease the tension between them.
Tsunade and Maki dislike each other, and Uka Senju's many efforts over the years, things haven't improved.
Chiharu's age and temperament meant that the two got along well, but that was all!
Thinking back to the posts I read in my past life, they all said that the period after moving in together is when conflicts most intensely erupt.
So he came up with this idea to eliminate conflicts and misunderstandings in his future family life!
There's no way around it; as the man of the family, I have to treat everyone equally!
The three of them were a little embarrassed because of what Chiharu had said earlier.
But after looking at the bed and feeling shy for a while, someone noticed the problem!
Tilting her head, Senju Maki squinted her left eye and asked the two of them, "We'll be here all night?"
A!
"?"
The two, who were looking down to cool their faces and avoid the awkward atmosphere, were both startled when they heard these words!
They had never thought about this problem before.
Oh yeah, this bed is so big...
Were all three of us brought to this room?
It seems there are no other bedrooms on the second floor besides this large bedroom. Is this something Uka recently renovated?
The three, realizing the crucial issue, looked at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with terror and absurdity!
They tolerated being married together and having the same social status!
They had thought about what the arrangements would be for tonight.
Should we proceed gradually, or complete it within one day?
The three of them never expected that things would turn out so... like they were on equal footing!
They had all fantasized about life after marriage and wondered if conflicts would arise and how they would get along!
But neither of them expected to face such a scene on their very first day of marriage.
The three of them experienced a range of emotions in the new house.
Time slowly passed by!
After finishing their meal, the neutral Shinobi Clan, escorted by Uka Senju, began to take their positions.
After these people left, the Senju Hands and their allies began the second round.
They ate, drank, and chatted, taking advantage of the joyous occasion of the Senju celebration to reunite.
The chieftains and high-ranking members of several clans also gathered together to reorganize the internal affairs of the allied clans!
After chatting for a few rounds with Mito Uzumaki at the head of the table, Senju Toka, as the host, began, "Regarding the matter we discussed a few days ago, do you all have any new thoughts now?"
Hearing the question from the person at the head of the round table.
Sitting next to Mito Uzumaki, the Inuzuka Clan clan chief put down his sake cup and addressed the crowd. "My suggestion is that each clan, based on its own circumstances, retain one to three main Large Unit to garrison the village or other locations."
"Then the rest of the tribesmen mingled together and were assigned to lead the mixed teams!"
"But we can only maintain three main teams at most. Otherwise, if we mix too many teams, we simply don't have enough manpower to manage them all."
Two batches of trainees have emerged in the past two years.
There will be a final third batch this year!
Furthermore, as an ally, he also knew that the Senju had people secretly working for them.
In this situation, if their previous organizational structure is not broken up again, then there will be no one to take care of the mixed teams!
In this Shinobi World, without experienced members to mentor newcomers, the mortality rate for new recruits is frighteningly high.
He had invested so much in training them, and he didn't want them to die without ever fulfilling their purpose!
Waving his hand in refusal, the last member of the Gekko Clan to join the Senju Alliance, Chief Inuzuka, said helplessly, " Inuzuka Clan, your major clans can maintain one to three main teams."
"But this is difficult for us. Even if we choose to keep a main team, it will lead to a lack of manpower to do other tasks."
"And this will put a lot of pressure on our finances!"
"So I'm wondering if, depending on the circumstances, we don't necessarily need to set our bottom line so high?"
"Small clans like ours and Yuhi will remain as they are, so that all our manpower can be sent out!"
The Senju Alliance is a very fair place.
The principle here has always been "the more you work, the more you earn," and those who suffer greater losses receive preferential treatment!
The Gekko Clan currently has only a little over a hundred members, excluding Genin and retired elders, who are either chunin or Jonin.
If they follow the instructions of the Inuzuka Clan clan chief and leave behind one main Large Unit, their clan's contribution rating to the alliance will be very low.
Furthermore, since most people remain in Konoha, their family's source of funds will also face problems!
A lower score will result in a lower allocation of funds, creating a vicious cycle.
