Chapter 207 (2/2)
Kakashi however, could not help; he had to remain in the hospital for a while to heal physically.
As time went by, the date got closer and closer. September 13th, three days before the wedding, Minato finally got the Anbu matter together and returned to Kushina's side.
With him there, the smile on Kushina face was much brighter.
On September 14th, Ryo and Kogin began to issue invitations to the various families of Konoha.
On September 15th, Minato and Kushina had several wedding rehearsals, to make sure that all would go smoothly the next day.
The wedding venue was chosen to be Jiraya's place. The Sannin had a very luxurious house for someone who spent most of his life traveling, and being that Minato was his disciple, no other place could be more fitting!
Early in the morning, Chinse came to Jiraya's home. Minato and Kushina were both orphans, and Ryo asked his mom to take care of what mothers take care of on such a special day.
The wedding, while looking traditional, was somewhat similar in style to a western style wedding.
Ryo and the finally healed Kakashi were responsible for receiving gifts at the door, and Jiraya welcomed the guests like a parent would.
Speaking of Jiraya, he looked rather prestigious, sorting out his appearance and looking rather handsome.
The first guest to arrive was the 3rd Hokage, who delivered a red envelope and his blessings on behalf of Konoha.
He was followed by Fugaku and Katachi on behalf of the Uchiha. Hiashi, now clan head, and Hizashi Hyuga were there as well.
The representatives of both clans were there to deliver presents at almost the same time, with Ryo and Kakashi getting lost between them.
Later, representatives of various small and medium sized clans also arrived. The heads of the Ino-Shika-Cho, the Sarutobi clan, the Aburameā¦ etc. The Hatake clan head, Sakumo, was the last of them to arrive.
Before anyone realized it, it was already noon. All clans and Ninjas receiving invitations were basically there, and Kakashi and Ryo's mission was over.
The two went inside together, just to catch up with Minato and Kushina walking out.
Kushina was wearing a white Kimono, her hair gathered in a bun. Chinse had put some light make up on her, something she never did before.
Kushina was always a beautiful woman. Now however, she was stunning being belief. Her first step into Jiraya's courtyard took everyone's breath away, as they all looked at her quietly!
On the other hand, Minato was wearing a black men's Kimono, looking as prestigious as ever. Perhaps it was just the joy of marriage, but his smile never looked so warm either!
The two stood together looking very happy, and all the guests made a heartfelt applause.
Hearing them, Kushina blushed as she smiled delicately.
