Naruto: Night of the Nine Tails Summons the Emperor's Armor

"Go get Tsunade."

"Yes!"

The ANBU responded, and then the figure immediately disappeared.

After a while, there was a knock on the office door.

"Enter."

Sarutobi Hizan said.

Then, the door was pushed open and Tsunade walked in.

"Old man, what do you want from me?"

Tsunade walked in and sat down directly without being formal or polite at all.

"Tsunade, that's it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression suddenly became very gentle.

Just like an amiable elder, it is easy for people to feel friendly.

"Now, the situation in Minato is not very good. After getting the news, all countries have started to look at it with eager eyes, and they have even begun to put pressure on the border of the Fire Country."

"The current situation in Konoha and the Country of Fire is not very optimistic..."

Tsunade frowned subconsciously when she heard these words.

how to say……

She felt that the old man probably had no good intentions.

"so what?"

"Old man, why did you call me here today?"

Tsunade asked impatiently.

I wonder if these things shouldn’t be what the old man needs to worry about the most?How come you still have time to look for yourself?

"Cough cough..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused and then said, "Tsunade, you must learn to see the essence through phenomena."

"What caused Konoha and the Land of Fire to suffer such a crisis?"

Tsunade still frowned, "Why? Isn't it just because Minato was injured and unconscious?"

"That's right!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued, "It is precisely because Minato was injured and unconscious, and what is Minato's identity to Konoha?"

"Hokage."

"Yes, it is precisely because of Minato's special status as Hokage that his coma made the ninja villages of other countries look at him with eager eyes."

"Therefore, there is actually a very simple and efficient way to solve the current problem."

Sarutobi Hiruzen deliberately lengthened the last few words.

Tsunade frowned even more tightly, and subconsciously leaned back, away from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"any solution?"

Tsunade blurted out.

"This method is..."

"Elect a new Hokage!"

For a moment, the air in the entire Hokage's office froze.

Tsunade looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a puzzled expression.

She said speechlessly, "Why choose a new Hokage?"

"Old man, aren't you here? You can just take up the post temporarily. Can't you just step back when Minato wakes up?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed quietly, his face full of exhaustion and helplessness.

"Tsunade, you also know that I am getting older now and am somewhat incapable of doing what I do. Moreover, in my current state, it is probably difficult to be a deterrent to other ninja villages."

"so……"

"Let me put it bluntly, now in Konoha, only you are qualified to hold the position of Hokage."

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked directly at Tsunade, his eyes full of hope and expectation.

"I?"

Tsunade pointed at herself in surprise.

To be honest, although she had a hunch in her heart, the old man probably had this intention in calling her over.

But when she actually heard that she was asked to be Hokage, she was still very surprised.

But more than anything, Tsunade was still a little angry.

Because Sarutobi Hiruzen's words reminded Tsunade of some past events that she didn't want to recall.

"Sister, I must become Hokage in the future! Just like grandpa and the others!"

"I, I don't want to die yet...I haven't become Hokage yet...I still have a lot of things to do..."

Those two familiar faces and those two familiar voices appeared in front of my eyes again and echoed in my ears.

Tsunade's body began to shake uncontrollably.

The black and white pictures came to mind again like a movie.

Heavy rain, blood, darkness...

That childish sunshine, that lively and cheerful smile.

That gentle, handsome, tough and charming face made her commit herself to a life-long face...

All kinds of emotions surged in Tsunade's heart. The things she had suppressed in her heart and tossed and turned for countless nights now all emerged again.

Tsunade lowered her head and her hands began to tremble involuntarily.

"Hokage..."

"Ha ha……"

Tsunade sneered, her face bloodless and gloomy.

"Whoever wants to be the Hokage can be the Hokage. Anyway, I won't be."

Tsunade raised her head, her body no longer trembling, and her eyes were strangely firm and decisive.

After saying that, she stood up and walked straight out of the Hokage's office without looking back.

"Hey……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tsunade's back and leaned back on the chair a little lonely.

He knew Tsunade's dilemma.

However, as he said, he is now too old and frail to be able to shock other countries like Minato.

Moreover, through the years of Watergate governance, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to admit that his somewhat weak policies were indeed wrong.

His character and his consistent style are no longer enough to lead Konoha to a better future.

What Konoha needs now is not a weak leader like him, but a resolute and decisive leader like Minato.

Coupled with the consideration of personal strength.

Considering all aspects including background, Tsunade is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

One of the three ninjas, the princess of the Senju clan, and her direct disciple.

There is no one more suitable than her.

"Hey……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, but still would not give up easily.

He thought carefully and then called the guard outside the door.

"Three generations of adults, what are your orders?"

"Go get Kakashi."

"Yes!"

After a while, Kakashi came.

At this time, Kakashi was still serving in the ANBU. Sarutobi Hiruzen temporarily took over the Hokage's affairs, so Kakashi naturally had to listen to his dispatches.

"Three generations of adults."

Kakashi's attitude was very respectful.

But even wearing the ANBU mask, Sarutobi Hiruzen could tell that Kakashi was somewhat worried.

After all, his teacher was injured and unconscious, which was another huge blow to Kakashi.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also hesitated.

After all, Minato is still in a coma. At this time, he asked Kakashi to persuade Tsunade to succeed as Hokage. Isn't it a bit...

However, in this situation, only Kakashi, the others, and Tsunade can talk to each other.

After hesitating for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen said helplessly,

"Kakashi, the situation around Konoha is not very optimistic now, so the most important task at the moment is to elect a new Hokage."

Kakashi was taken aback.

He originally thought that the third generation would temporarily regain control of the village, but he did not expect that a new Hokage would be chosen.

However, considering that his teacher was still lying unconscious in the hospital bed and the current situation, it made sense to choose a new Hokage.

However, Kakashi still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"But Tsunade is not willing, and there are no other candidates, so I hope you can take Tenzo and the three of them to persuade Tsunade to agree to take over the position of Hokage."

"Are you willing to complete this mission?"
