Naruto: The Strongest Four Generations

Chapter 5 Be Humble When You Look Up

I still remember that the emperor played by Chow Yun-fat said a word to the prince played by Jay Chou in "The Golden Armor in the City": What I give you, you have.You can't grab what I don't give you, let alone subvert it.

This sentence is very suitable for Orochimaru, because he is very strong, very assertive, and very ambitious, but he forgot what he had, and the third generation at that time also had it.

Because at the end of the third ninja world war, Sarutobi Hiruzen was still in his prime. He claimed to be the "ninjutsu professor" and claimed to be the strongest Naruto in history (not to mention how watery this title is, But unfortunately, from now on this title will belong to me, Namikaze Minato!).

Such an awesome Hokage, who could have worked as a Hokage for more than ten years, but under the pressure of Konoha's senior management, he voluntarily resigned from the position of Hokage.As for what pressure?Claiming to the outside world that he was responsible for the ninjas who died on the battlefield, he took the blame and resigned.

This is the wording of a ninja fooling civilians. After all, many people died in this war. The high-level Konoha cannot remain indifferent to these dead heroes, right?In this case, wouldn't the actions of Konoha's top management lose the hearts of the people?So, isn't the regime they have worked so hard to build in vain? !
In order to solve this matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who is well versed in black-bellied ways, gave full play to the monkey's cunning: he decided to take the blame and resign!He also said that he was responsible for the ninjas who died on the battlefield. After all, he was the leader in charge of this battle and the chief culprit for the loss of many civilian ninjas.

When the villagers in Konoha who lost their relatives heard that the third generation of Hokage had resigned because of this incident, they felt a little comforted, just like Ah Q: After all, all the big leaders have resigned and apologized for the death of my family. , what else can I say? !We can only hope that the next Hokage will be a good person and stop waging war.

The above is the true inner portrayal of Konoha civilians, but they don't know that Hiruzaru Sarutobi will not give up the rights in his hands so easily. In order to achieve his goal, Hiruza Sarutobi must first find a suitable one. successor.

Candidates, I must first choose from my own group of people, the surname Yuanfei is the best, but unfortunately my eldest son, one of the "eight colors", died, and the youngest son, who is underage, if he is selected, the gang The old thing definitely disagrees, forget it, don't ask yourself to be boring.

Since there are no suitable ones for your own descendants, then choose from among your own disciples:

Self?This guy is an idler, and he is very indifferent to rights in his heart, so he is a suitable candidate, but Nima stays outside all day and doesn't know how to go back to the village. I heard that he took in three orphans. Nima, he really eats carrots Don't worry!

Tsunade?Well, this guy is also a suitable candidate. His identity is still the granddaughter of the first generation, and his strength is not bad.The most important thing is that she doesn't look down on the throne of Hokage, but isn't Nima's lover and younger brother dead? As for being so sad that she wanders around without a trace? !
Orochimaru? NO, NO, NO.This kid is like me, too ambitious, too assertive, and young and strong, I can't control him at all!Sometimes I even dreamed that I was killed by him—too scary, PASS—

What should we do?The son can't do it, and neither can the apprentices.Who should I choose?Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought about it all night, and finally he thought of a suitable candidate, so the next morning, he told Konoha's senior management to appoint Namikaze Minato as the fourth Hokage!
This made Shimura Danzo, who strongly recommended Orochimaru, very angry. In his opinion, although Namikaze Minato is one of the "Eight Colors" and performed well in the third Ninja World War, in the final analysis, Namikaze Minato is still too strong. I'm young, I'm afraid I won't be able to take on the heavy responsibility of Hokage.

But who is Sarutobi Hiruzen?The Sarutobi family, which is the closest to the primate monkey family, has long learned a truth: we will strongly oppose whatever the enemy supports.Whatever the enemy loves, we strongly oppose.So as soon as Shimura Danzo proposed the word "big" for Orochimaru, Hiru Sarutobi scolded him bloody.

In order to ensure the achievement of his goal, Sarutobi Hiruzen also hinted that Koharu and Mito Menyan are in the same school, and that the Namikaze Minato he recommended also inherits the essence of the three of us - and Orochi Although Maru is my disciple, he is not with me.So, for the position of Hokage, who should be the one who can't be, don't you two have any idea?

Xiaochun Xiaochun and Mitomonyan, who have been in politics for many years, are also very cunning. They immediately understood their political stance, so they made a decision immediately, pointing to the photo of Namikaze Minato and shouted: "It's him!"

Three votes to one vote, so Shimura Danzo lost shamefully, and he walked away angrily.But Zhuanju Xiaoharu and Mito Menyan didn't pay much attention to it at all. Among them, Zhuanju Xiaoharu kept muttering in his heart when he saw the photo of Namikaze Minato: "Don't say it, this guy is quite handsome."

In this way, Namikaze Minato was appointed as the fourth Hokage by Konoha's senior officials in one night, not to mention the process, Hiruzaru Sarutobi achieved his goal: Although he resigned from the position of the third Hokage, But he still sits on the elder Konoha's seat, and because the fourth generation was single-handedly promoted by him, Hiruzaru Sarutobi is also vaguely at the head of the elders.

As for why Sarutobi Hiruzen recommended Namikaze Minato, there are several layers of close relationship: First, Namikaze Minato is Jiraiya's apprentice, and Jiraiya is Sarutobi Hiruza's apprentice, that is to say Namikaze Minato is Sarutobi Hiruzen's disciple-this is a very important point, because Konoha's power hub has always been in his own hands.

Second, Namikaze Minato's character is obvious to all. He is generous and gentle to others, and has a humble and respectful temperament. He has a high evaluation among Konoha, especially in the eyes of common people.Of course, the most important thing is that Namikaze Minato seems to be the same as Jiraiya, and he doesn't have much ambition, which is easy to control.

Thirdly, Namikaze Minato’s background. As we all know, Namikaze Minato was born in a commoner’s family. His parents died in the war. He is a ninja with no background, but he enjoys a high reputation in the ninja war, so let him be Hokage , First, it is convenient to control, and second, it also takes advantage of his status in the hearts of the common people.

Fourth, the strength of Namikaze Minato, this is also the last consideration of Sarutobi Hiruzen. As one of Konoha's "eight colors", Minato's "Golden Flash" has a great influence in the five major countries, and his strength Zhuoju, in this post-war chaotic period, is a very useful gun, so Sarutobi Hiruzen resolutely and firmly chose Namikaze Minato as Hokage.

In addition, Konoha has just experienced a war at this time, and it is in a period when internal forces are unstable and everything is waiting to be done, while external forces are watching. After Namakaze Minato succeeds Hokage, it is necessary to solve these two big problems—— —If you do it well, you won't get any good, because you are Hokage, and these are what you should do.

But if you can't do it well, then, sorry, the backlog of internal and external conflicts is coming, and the spearheads are all directed at you, Namikaze Minato, then what kind of Hokage are you, step down as soon as possible and go home to sell sweet potatoes!And at this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen can logically regain the throne of Hokage!

In fact, Minakame Minato in the original book was just as Hiruzaru Sarutobi had expected. In just one year, the construction of Konoha was reorganized internally, and the relationship between major countries was restored externally. That night, Sarutobi Hiruzen stepped on the dead body of Namikaze Minato to regain the throne of Hokage!
After all, Namikaze Minato was recommended by Sarutobi Hiruzen, which is enough to prove his ability and vision.So in order to continue the prosperity and stability of Konoha, Hiruzaru Sarutobi solemnly decided to continue to be in charge of Hokage!
