I want to call bullshit on that, but why bother? Chouji has been dead for me ever since his grand fight with the guy from the sound four, when he sacrificed his life because he trusted in Shikamaru.
Nah I think it still works. The three clans likely allied back before Konoha existed. The Sarutobi clan's involvement in the tradition was probably more of a recent thing.
