Chapter 977 Coming of Age Ceremony
After the club work was over, Gojo Aiko returned to the apartment like a flash.
She put down her schoolbag and went to Meteor Court. She specially called many people to come to the coming-of-age ceremony tonight.
Since there were no restrictions now, she invited everyone she knew to come at once.
Someone had already started a bonfire on the beach in front of the wisteria garden.
"It's Aiko! Here!" Paimon was flying around the venue. Because there were delicious food everywhere, she spotted Gojo Aiko at a glance and quickly called her over.
"Paimon~" Gojo Aiko ran over and hugged Paimon tightly.
"Haha, our old man is just not as conspicuous as little Paimon." Joseph teased with a kindly grandfather's face, looking inexplicably asking for a beating.
"You old man, just figure it out yourself." Caesar threw a bucket of clams into his arms, "Pick out the meat."
Joseph tried to act pitiful to avoid work, but Caesar didn't even look at him.
They are having a big dinner tonight, but it's a rather casual dinner. They'll build a few bonfires on the beach, set up a big pot, and lay out the ingredients. You can eat whatever you want. You can cook it yourself, or wait for others to make it and then go and eat and drink for free.
Many ingredients are produced in Meteor Garden, and the fish are freshly caught in the sea nearby.
Because there were so many people, they came up with this idea.
Ying has already taken out her stove and ingredients, ready to show off her skills to everyone.
Paimon said that as members of the "Team Teyvat", they will never lose!
Although I don't know why they started to compare with each other inexplicably, anyway, even Zhongli who was drinking tea and Venti who ran away were pulled over by Paimon to cook together.
Kaedehara Manye was not spared either, but he went out to sea to fish with Chiba Nizhiyu.
Kenji Hagiwara also pulled over Rei Furuya to show off his skills. After all, he is "a waiter at the Poirot Café who is loved by the nearby high school girls"!
Fūya Ling could only ask for help from Koujunran, and drag other people into the water as well.
Then everyone was gearing up for a big fight.
Gojo Aiko and Paimon strolled around together, ate some food here and there, and then gathered together to chat.
This side talks about their journey to the seven kingdoms of Teyvat, and that side talks about their adventure in another world.
Aiko Gojo thought about traveling to Inazuma again.
She specifically asked about it, but Paimon could only tell her how many delicious dishes Inazuma had, and she couldn't explain anything else.
But it is true that Inazuma is very dangerous. The geographical environment there is relatively poor, and coupled with the impact of the war, it is now in a period of slow recovery, and it is estimated that it will take more than ten years to recover.
After all, the poor geographical environment will also hinder the recovery progress, not to mention that the war has also led to a decrease in population.
"Hmm...Naruto, what do you think?" Gojo Aiko asked Naruto who came over.
Naruto looked confused, "This...that...it's not appropriate to go if it's dangerous, right?"
He didn't hear it clearly, he just heard the word "danger".
"Idiot, you must go!" Gojo Aiko tapped Naruto's forehead. "It's a country after the war, you can go and take a look and get familiar with it in advance. It would be even better if there is danger. Then you two can go and I will watch from the side..."
"Is it really okay?" Ying also came over, "I think it's better for you to go to Mondstadt, but you can also use anchor points. If you can't win, you can run away, or take the milk tea to Kamisato's house and tell him my name..."
"Why milk tea?" Aiko Gojo subconsciously raised the milk tea in her hand. This was the caramel pudding milk tea she had just brought from Kenji Hagihara and the others.
"Because the head of the Kamisato family, Kamisato Ayato, likes to drink milk tea." Ying briefly told them what happened to Inazuma.
Of course she didn't say anything too private, but any smart person could guess it.
There used to be two gods of Inazuma, a pair of twin sisters, one of whom was good at literature and the other was good at martial arts. They divided the work and cooperated to govern Inazuma, but in public there was only one god, so the people of Inazuma did not know that they actually had two thunder gods.
500 years ago, a catastrophe occurred and all seven gods had to be present. Shanwen's sister went to the battlefield herself without telling her sister Shanwu, but she died.
At that time, Inazuma also had problems, and her sister couldn't make it in time, so it was too late.
Since then, the position of Inazuma has changed, but to the outside world, their god has always been the same, after all, the twin sisters look exactly the same.
However, Shanwu's sister was not good at governing, and was deeply hit by the death of her sister and the successive deaths of her close friends. So she gradually went to extremes and wanted to pursue eternity, keeping everything in a stable eternal state, where there would be no change and no danger.
So she issued the Eye Hunting Order, not allowing people to possess the Eye of God, and blocked Inazuma, not allowing her to communicate with the outside world.
However, due to her negligence in management, the enemy took advantage of the situation. Some of her subordinates colluded with the enemy and concealed the dangers brought by issuing the Eye Hunting Order and the Closure Order, which led to civil strife in Inazuma.
It was not until Ying and Paimon sneaked into Inazuma in order to meet the Thunder God and experienced a series of dangers and difficulties that they met the Thunder God who had been closed off with the help of the Thunder God's friends. They told her the real situation of Inazuma and people's demands, which allowed her to come out of her closed world.
Inazuma's hunting order and isolation order were lifted, and the war stopped.
It is said that during this period, Kaedehara Manye took on Thor's "Unthinking Sword" in order to save Ying and Paimon, and Chiba Nizhiyu died under the divine punishment of this sword.
Sasuke listened thoughtfully. The ruler who was not good at governing closed himself off from the outside world...
I always feel that the situation of ninjas is similar.
After all, he was still a child and didn't know much, but based on his experience over the past decade, he felt that the current Hokage of Konoha Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was undoubtedly an incompetent leader.
After all, it was incompetent enough that the Uchiha clan genocide happened right under his nose, not to mention what happened when Naruto was born.
Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki had already told them the truth about what happened at that time, but they didn't know everything.
No one knew who the Uchiha who controlled the Nine-Tails was at the beginning. In any case, there was no such person in their Uchiha clan.
Rather than saying that Sarutobi Hiruzen is incompetent, it would be more accurate to say that he is just old after all.
Once people get old, their thinking patterns and personalities will undergo some subtle changes.
Many times, I no longer have the drive I had when I was young.
But now the Konoha Village seems to be unable to find anyone who can succeed Sarutobi Hiruzen, so he can only continue to be his Hokage.
He keenly realized that there might be something wrong here. Logically, there were many excellent ninjas in Konoha Village. Even if Minato Namikaze died, there shouldn't be a lack of successors, right?
