dmims Chapter 335 Oath
Chapter 335 Oath
"Ayu..."
As soon as Obito opened his mouth, his voice was a little wet, as if his emotions were a little too obvious. In this quiet shrine, his voice was not loud but very clear.
Yuyan just looked into Obito's eyes quietly, and Obito could see in his light blue eyes... calm, but strong emotions, and a hint of... expectation.
"Ayu! I have fantasized about this day countless times. I think...if you hadn't appeared in my world, I might not be as lucky as I am now..."
"I don't know what I would be like if I hadn't met you, but... I can't live without you. My life has become meaningful because of you, and my soul... well... has become complete because of you."
"I love you, always will...more than anyone else, more than yourself..."
After Obito finished speaking, the place fell into complete silence, and one could hear a pin drop. There seemed to be a faint sniffing sound, perhaps someone was moved by his sincere feelings...
In this ninja world full of dangers and wars, finding a partner who trusts each other unconditionally is probably no easier than becoming a legendary ninja.
Obito's face flushed, but he rarely showed any uneasiness or embarrassment. He didn't need to hide it, not even in front of anyone.
Yuyan's eyes were a little red. He looked at the boy in front of him who was expressing his emotions seriously. Many things suddenly came to his mind. He seemed to see all the scenes of Obito from his childhood to today.
Those scenes appeared before his eyes like a dream, and then all overlapped on the figure of the black-haired boy in front of him.
It is very real, not a dream or an illusion. This is the most real and precious time we are experiencing at this moment.
Obito didn't have to wait too long, now it was Yuyan's turn to swear...
To be honest, he wasn't very good at saying these things, he preferred to express his love through actions and the details of life, but now, Obito needed to get his own answer.
He is worthy, he is good, and Yu Yan wants to accept everything about him unconditionally.
"Tsuchi... Although it's still a bit embarrassing to call you like this in front of so many people, haha..."
Yu Yan smiled slightly, calmed down again, and said word by word: "Me too..."
"My beloved, Uchiha Obito. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, no matter what difficulties we will encounter ahead, no matter what dangers there will be in the future, I will be with you, forever."
Yu Yan pointed to his heart, and his voice became soft and slow, as gentle and comfortable as a breeze passing through the room.
"I can understand what you are thinking, and you can understand mine as well..."
"We are not two individuals. From now on, there is no 'you' or 'I', only 'us'."
Yuyan gently stretched out his hand and gently stroked Obito's cheek, as if he was looking at a priceless treasure. There was no impurity in his eyes, only the purest purity like autumn water and spring dew.
He slowly stood up, turned to face everyone present, and spoke quietly, "I swear to always be with Obito. No matter what happens, I will never leave his side."
Obito looked up at Yuyan who was swearing in front of everyone, and felt his nose sour. He couldn't hold back his tears and they dripped down his cheeks onto his collar.
He did not wipe it off, nor did he show his usual nervousness and shame. Instead, he stood up and swore an oath to everyone present and to the gods.
"Me...Me too! I swear too! I will protect him with my life, forever!"
Yu Yan calmly took the hand beside him, lowering his eyes slightly...
"...I love him so much, he has become the meaning of my life..."
......
The oath-taking segment was considered over. The quiet audience couldn't help but applaud. No one showed any strange expression. They were all relatives and friends who knew the two well. Seeing that the two finally came to an end, they couldn't help but nod deeply.
This result is really good...even though such a combination is rare in the ninja world.
This is not only the fate of Senju and Uchiha, but also their unique story.
However, the complete process has not yet ended. Although it is complicated, this is probably the most complete Shinto-style wedding since the establishment of Konoha, so the next step is to continue.
The God was also surprised by the special yet sincere emotions between the two people, but out of professionalism, he coughed lightly and signaled to continue.
"Now proceed... two bows, two claps, one bow..."
Everyone should know this step. To put it simply, it is... the clapping gesture commonly used in shrines for praying for blessings.
Obito had done his homework in advance, so he didn't forget this step either.
The two of them walked to the shrine at the same time in tacit understanding and bowed twice. Although no one knew what god it was, perhaps it was the god of nature, or perhaps the god of heaven and earth. In short, this was also part of the ceremony.
After bowing twice, both of them closed their eyes at the same time, put their hands together in front of their chests, with the right hand slightly lower than the left hand, and clapped twice.
Clapping is considered a symbol of welcoming the gods or driving away evil spirits, followed by putting hands together in prayer.
Finally, bow once more to complete this step.
"Finally... please drink the divine wine together, my relatives."
This was the last words of the chief priest. At this point, all the steps were basically completed, at least on the shrine's side.
The priestesses were already prepared and distributed a cup of clear rice wine to everyone present.
"Let's drink together."
......
The ceremony at the shrine is over, and of course, there are special treatments for friends who can come to attend the wedding.
Yuyan pulled Obito and came to his grandmother. Although the old woman and Yuyan had no blood relationship, at this time, only his grandmother could represent Yuyan's true elder.
"Grandma, we are here to toast you. How is it? Did Obito not disappoint you? The preparations are very good~ I am... touched."
Yuyan seemed to have returned to his early childhood, watching his body getting... not really, it seemed to be getting better?
But it doesn't matter, it doesn't stop him from wanting to share his happiest moments.
The old woman watched the whole thing very seriously, and now, when the two of them stood in front of her, she couldn't help but feel as if she were in another world...
Once upon a time, they were just two little guys, but now they have become the most powerful ninjas in the village, and...it was really not easy to finally get to where they are today.
Although she never asked about it, she saw how hard Yuyan and Obito worked.
"Good kids, grandma blesses you. Really... you have worked hard along the way..."
The old woman reached out and touched the two people's faces. Times have changed...Now the grandmother can no longer touch the two people's heads like she used to, but she still tries her best to reach out her hand to express the most primitive and true love.
......
After the ceremony, everyone, with the help of Kakashi, went to the next place in an orderly manner, which was the best restaurant in Konoha Village.
After all, there is a disclosure banquet, and it is rare for everyone to have time to attend, so eating is naturally indispensable.
Minato scratched his hair, and although he was touched, the reality of the situation forced him to come back to his senses.
"Minato... Look at Yu Yan, what he said is so good... Look at you! You are not even as good as your apprentice..."
Kushina hugged Naruto, sniffling with emotion while complaining about her husband, the Yondaime Hokage, in a weird tone.
After all, when they got married, it wasn't so formal, and Minato was such a fool that he would just smile foolishly at the guests when encountering such things.
But in private, it’s still quite romantic… maybe?
Minato was unable to refute, indeed...at the wedding that year, he really did as Kushina said.
"Well...I have to go back first..."
Before Minato could finish his words, he was interrupted by Kushina waving her hand and pouting.
"I know you're busy, go ahead, Naruto and I will go eat your share too~ Don't worry~"
"Uh..."
Yuyan saw the interaction between Minato teacher and Kushina sister from afar, smiled easily, and couldn't help but hold Obito's hand tighter.
"Let's change our clothes and go prepare lunch. After all, you planned this, so everything will depend on you later~"
Hearing Yuyan's words, Obito scratched his head awkwardly and agreed immediately: "Okay! I promise there won't be any problems."
What Obito didn't say is that now that I have come to my senses and think about what I just said, I feel really embarrassed...
But he didn't need to say anything, Yu Yan knew what he was thinking with his eyes closed... because he was thinking the same thing. He blushed a little at this moment, as if it was the first day of falling in love.
