Started as a Hokage

After Fugaku sent the seal away, he felt relieved. Ever since Uchiha got the position of the Roshiko Guards, he didn't have much power and had a lot of trouble.

It caused complaints from the villagers externally, but internally the Uchiha clan members were also fed up with the fact that they had to deal with their parents' conflicts personally and were often looked down upon by others.

Yuan Shuyi was indeed right. This position was not as good as expected. He was just taking the blame.

He was so relaxed that he even had the time to observe the expressions of everyone present.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two elders were a little happy, looking at the seal with great satisfaction, and even looked at Uchiha Fugaku with a softer look.

Danzo's face was filled with astonishment and gloominess. It was obvious that this situation was not what he had imagined, and he revealed a hint of greed when he looked at the seal.

The ANBU captain had a little disappointment on his face, which made Fugaku feel a little cold in his heart. This second-generation ANBU subordinate also seemed to be very hostile to Uchiha.

The remaining ministers and advisers all had smiles on their faces. Although this situation left them a little confused, they could all get a share of the pie if they had an extra power out of thin air.

He and Gen Shuyi looked at each other, and Fugaku nodded without any trace.

From this scene, Fugaku can basically conclude that the top management of Konoha is generally hostile to Uchiha, but whether this hostility is specifically aimed at the Uchiha family or at Uchiha's status as a guard force is another matter.

Danzo and the ANBU captain were unabashedly targeting the Uchiha family.

Other families are more motivated by interests. When Uchiha takes a step back, they no longer have the need to take action against him.

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude towards Fugaku had softened, he even called him to the table and invited him to sit down.

Although this is reasonable, after leaving the police force, Uchiha is also the largest family in Konoha. These big families should have been invited to participate in high-level meetings. However, in the past, the Hyuga family did not interfere with village affairs, and everyone in Uchiha did not like it, so Basically ignore them.

But this softened attitude was seen by Danzo as a shame and a compromise that betrayed the Nidaime's thoughts.

At this time, Danzo had long forgotten that he had been messing around, using some unfounded guilt to blame the Uchiha family.

He snorted heavily, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone's eyes fell on Danzo. He pondered slightly. Uchiha had handed over all his power. It was no longer appropriate to suppress him at this time because his identity was different. The original Fugaku was the captain of the police force and a public official. He could do whatever he wanted. against.

Now that Fugaku is the clan leader and a member of the Konoha ninja clan, targeting him may cause some opinions among the ninja clan.

Then let them go for now.

Danzo sighed slightly in his heart, feeling very regretful that he did not drive Uchiha out of the village at this time.

"The fourth generation has passed away. Konoha cannot live without a leader. I propose that the fifth generation election can also be put on the agenda."

As soon as he said this, everyone became serious. The re-election of the Hokage was a major matter related to the life and death of the village, so there was no room for nonsense.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, there was no problem with the Fifth Generation's election.

But it would be very problematic if the person who proposed it was Danzo Shimura.

Having known this old friend for decades, he knew exactly what he was thinking, but he still couldn't forget the position of Hokage.

It's just that Sarutobi Hiruzen knew better in his heart that Danzo Shimura was not suitable for the Hokage. He was too selfish and could not bear the weight of the Hokage.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to stop him, and first dragged him away, but Danzo didn't give him a chance.

"I propose that the fifth generation be chosen... Orochimaru." Danzo said in a low voice.

Orochimaru!

Everyone was shocked and looked at Danzo in disbelief. There was not one person present who didn't know what Danzo, the old boy, was thinking in his heart. He was a lunatic who wanted to be the Hokage.

At this time, he actually gave up the position of Hokage to Orochimaru.

But everyone thought again that Danzo seemed to have recommended Orochimaru when the fourth generation was elected last time. It seems that he really loves Orochimaru.

Everyone reacted quickly and after whispering, everyone felt that Orochimaru was a very good choice.

After all, Orochimaru was one of the candidates in the last election of the Fourth Hokage, and although Orochimaru has been somewhat quiet in recent years, his military achievements are still on the Konoha Monument of Merit.

Having experienced the baptism of World War II and Three Wars, Orochimaru's contribution to Konoha is definitely among the top five in history. As long as there are no major problems, it is certain that he will be elected to the Hall of Fame.

At this time, Uncle Snake was not the scientific madman of later generations. During the Third World War, his reputation was even louder than that of Namikaze Minato. Even if the election of the Fourth Hokage failed, it was because the Third Hokage did not support it and because he was The people he knew around him ran away one by one and fell into confusion before being defeated by Namikaze Minato.

If he was serious about competing for the position of the Fourth Hokage, how could he be inferior to Namikaze Minato because of his reputation as one of the "Sannin of Konoha" during World War II and as the commander-in-chief of the Fire Country Ninja Force during World War III? .

"I agree."

"agree."

"..."

Everyone agreed very much with this proposal. Orochimaru is still a hero of Konoha, and no one has any objection to him becoming the Hokage.

Even Sarutobi Hiruzen, who felt something was wrong, and Minamoto Shugi, who knew that Orochimaru would betray Konoha in the future, could not veto Danzo's proposal at this time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was still frowning and thinking about what Danzo was doing, but Minamoto Sougi had some clues.

"The re-election of the Hokage is a big event. At this time, Konoha has just experienced the Nine-Tails Rebellion and needs some encouragement and morale. I think a grand ceremony for the Hokage election should be held to allow all villagers to participate."

The old god Mitomon Yan said this to everyone present.

Everyone has no objection. This has been the case since ancient times. Once a major disaster has occurred, a grand ceremony will be held. Firstly, it is used to cheer up, and secondly, it is to celebrate the passage of the disaster.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's frown deepened.

"Jiraiya is not bad in terms of qualifications. I recommend Jiraiya to become the Fifth Hokage. It's just that Orochimaru is a bit monotonous by himself. Jiraiya's participation in the election can stimulate everyone's enthusiasm."

Xiaochun, who went to bed, also made a sound at this time.

Is Jiraiya going to run for the Fifth Hokage?

That's a perfect fit.

A third-generation disciple and a fourth-generation teacher, anyone who says that Jiraiya is not qualified to run is lying with open eyes.

Everyone nodded again.

"Two of them are not grand enough, so let me recommend one more. Shimura Danzo is also a second-generation disciple. He has devoted his life to Konoha Village silently. Adding him to the list is not too much." Mito Kadoren smiled and put a heavy one The pound bomb dropped.

Shimura Danzo!

Everyone frowned and felt that this quota was not suitable.

Danzo took in everyone's expressions and snorted coldly: "Don't worry, I'm just joining in the fun. Besides, what are you worried about? Are you still worried that I can't compete with the Sannin?"

You are quite self-aware.

There was a burst of exclamation in everyone's heart.

If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case. Danzo cannot be compared to the Sannin, so what does everyone have to worry about.

Just as he said, he was just there to be a companion, just an appetizer, and he really made a fuss.

Everyone started nodding again, and even Fugaku didn't think it was possible for Danzo to succeed in the Sannin competition.

Only Sarutobi Hiruzen and Genshu Yi frowned with an ominous premonition in their hearts, while the other stared at Danzo with an inexplicable smile.
