Naruto's strongest force

The Third Hokage stood in front of the microphone under everyone's gaze.

All the people below fell silent.

In addition to the villagers of Konoha Village, there were also people from each village present. These people all entered Konoha with their legitimate identities.

Some come to entrust tasks, and some come to do business.

The nominally heavyweight guests were seated upstairs at the back.

The name of the Land of Fire.

"I declare that the vote of confidence for the Fifth Hokage will now officially begin!"

Suddenly, the villagers on the periphery became excited, and the center of the venue became quiet.

With the announcement of the third generation, a huge ballot box was placed in front of the stage.

Several clear lanes were reserved in front of the stage for voters to come forward and cast their votes.

Although you can vote by proxy, in order to show that your ninja clan is strong, most ninja clans vote in this way.

In addition, some people deliberately kept a low profile, or hid other thoughts. They held a lot of tickets in their hands, quietly came up and stuffed them in.

You don’t know how many shots the opponent has made.

The ballot box is engraved with a sealing technique, so even the Hyuga clan's Byakugan cannot see clearly what the votes are inside.

The votes were distributed seven days ago, and all the ballots have the person they voted for and their name on them.

Finally, you have to leave a sample of your own chakra to prevent fraud.

If someone really can't come back in time, they have also stated in advance who they will vote for, and the ANBU will record it one by one.

Even after the Hokage is elected, the ballot box needs to be sealed.

Ensure fairness to the greatest extent.

According to regulations, jounin, whether active or retired, are eligible to vote.

But there are only a few hundred Jonin in Konoha overall.

Even though the leading teachers of the Twelve Little Strong are all jounin, that's because of their special status.

It would be nice if the ordinary genin could have a special jounin to lead them.

More of them were led by chunin.

For many jonin, bringing up genin is a complete waste of time and energy.

Wouldn’t it be nice to do more tasks during this time?

Because the number of jounin is rare, those who run for election focus on some ninja clans with a long history.

Only major ninja clans with a long history can cultivate a large number of jounin.

Many Jonin have retired, even in their [-]s, but the tickets in their hands are still useful.

At this time, it's time to fight for the bottom line.

Xia Mu did not let most people go up, but sent a few people up and stuffed all the votes into the ballot box.

The Hyuga clan was just the opposite, with many Jonin taking turns.

It fully demonstrated the strength of the Hyuga clan.

But I don’t know who the Hyuga clan voted for.

Tsunade, who had basically not canvassed votes before the election, had many medical ninjas come up to vote.

Medical ninjas rarely go to the front line unless they are in wartime, and there is basically no wear and tear.

There are many more jounin among medical ninjas than imagined.

Originally, it was best to keep the number of jonin in a village a secret.

But Konoha Village is one of the five major countries, and it shows its own strength.

Instead of secretly checking to see if anyone from outside the village had sneaked in.

It is better to openly show it to spies from various countries.

I, Konoha, am so powerful.

In the four channels below, the votes were cast in less than half an hour.

Next came the voting session. Whether it was Natsuki, Orochimaru or Tsunade, they all had the same posture.

Arms on chest.

Clearly a confident move.

But their confidence means something different.

Xia Mu didn't know what other people thought.

But on Xia Mu's side, after scanning the venue, the system kept ringing.

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for greatly changing Asuma Sarutobi's life trajectory. 】

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Fire Release, Ash Burning X1 (can be replaced with the same type of ninjutsu)

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for greatly changing Yuhi Hong's life trajectory. 】

Congratulations to the host for getting: Luo Yingna's Jutsu X1

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for greatly changing the life trajectory of Mitarai Anko. 】

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Uncompleted Curse Seal X1 (can be replaced with the same type of ninjutsu)

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for greatly changing the trajectory of Sai's life. 】

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Super Beast Pseudo Painting, Eagle X1

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for successfully recruiting Sai. 】

Congratulations to the host for getting: painting talent or replacing existing talent X1.

A series of system tones made Xia Mu's head hurt.

When Xia Mu took a look at it, he could only say that there were good things and bad things.

Killing Hidan before had directly changed the fate of Asuma and Kurenai.

But I never saw Asuma and his wife.

The same goes for saving his brother Sakai, it was only triggered now that he saw it.

But why would Hongdou join in the fun?

What's up with her?

Natsuki was a little confused, and in her heart she could only classify her as a change caused by Orochimaru's change.

The Ninjutsu rewarded by Ashima and Red are a little different.

Kurenai won't say anything, after all, Uchiha is still there.

Ashes burn...

You said that you, the son of the Hokage, are somewhat useless at fire escape.

Fire ninjutsu is useless to Uchiha, after all, Natsuki doesn't know any of them.

Xia Mu thought for a moment and then replaced him with Hao Huo X1.

Anko's "Unfinished Curse Seal" left Natsuki a little confused.

The effect of the above is: Orochimaru is perceived through constant pain.

Thinking about it, Anko's curse seal did have this function, but Xia Mu always felt that something was wrong.

However, Xia Mu didn't need this, so he replaced him with the full version of the curse seal. Now Xia Mu has two more curse seals.

It has to be said that the curse seal provided great convenience to Xia Mu on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water.

Sai's fake painting of a super beast is actually useful, it can fly.

Now that the matter here is over, it’s time to go to Onoki’s place to collect the debt.

Didn't you expect that Sai would be determined to board Orochimaru's pirate ship now?

Natsuki was somewhat speechless when he saw Sai's talent for painting.

If it can't be replaced, wouldn't it be useless?

Xia Mu opened it and saw that there was only one valuable talent that could be replaced, and that was illusion mastery.

Xia Mu frowned and thought, it seemed that this was what the system meant by optimization.

Whatever he lacks, give it to him.

After Natsuki chose illusion mastery.

Some of the mistakes I made when using illusions in the past came to mind one by one.

It seems that I can make up for my shortcomings in illusion in the future.

……

During the vote counting process, the Sandaime Hokage sent one person to count the votes, and each candidate sent someone to stand behind them to avoid cheating.

The Third Hokage sent one, a Jonin from the Sarutobi clan to vote.

Number one on Orochimaru's side walked up and stood behind him, on Uchiha Natsuki's side was Shisui, and on Tsunade's side was Shizune.

When the counting of votes began, everyone below was silent.

Sasuke kept staring at the stage. He didn't understand Naruto well, but he knew that his father had always thought that the Uchiha clan could produce a Hokage.

Naruto's wish when he was a child was to become Hokage. Later, after he tasted the sweetness of family love, he simply forgot about becoming Hokage.

He now has relatives, friends, and people who love him, so he doesn't need to be a Hokage at all.

At first, after he learned the true face of the Third Hokage, he once hated the word Hokage. Later, he learned that his father was the Fourth Hokage.

As people gradually grow up, they can look at the word Hokage more peacefully.

Some time ago, Natsuki told Naruto that after the Fifth Hokage is chosen, Naruto will be allowed to meet his father.

So now Naruto just wants the fifth generation Hokage campaign to end soon.

No matter whether Natsuki-senpai is elected or Sister Tsunade is elected.

He was very happy. As for Orochimaru, he was not too familiar with Orochimaru.There is no concept.

But he must be a good person if he can make Uncle Fugaku and Brother Itachi's eyes better.

A huge monitor was erected behind the square, with the names of Uchiha Natsuki, Orochimaru, and Tsunade written on them.

Next is the number of votes.

Before the counting of votes began, three more boxes were taken out. These boxes were smaller than the previous ballot boxes.

The names of the three candidates were written on the three boxes respectively.

When the person is sung, just put the ticket in.

If there is any objection, the ticket can be checked on the spot.

After announcing the start, the Third Hokage returned to the high platform.

He needed the daimyo of the Fire Country to greet him, after all, the country still needed daimyo to govern.

It's decent enough to save face.

"...Orochimaru's recent research on limb cloning has greatly improved our Konoha's combat effectiveness."

"If we continue to develop like this in the future, we will have a bright future."

The Third was exaggerating about Snake Maru.

The daimyo also echoed:

"The gourmet recipes provided by Orochimaru and Natsuki Uchiha have made us a lot of money in the Fire Country's foreign trade."

"Tsunade-hime is Lord Hashirama's granddaughter. Which one of them will be the Fifth Hokage..."

Just when the Third Hokage and the Daimyo were chatting.

The person counting the votes below started: "Uchiha has one vote, Orochimaru has one vote, Orochimaru has one vote..."

"Tsunade has one vote, Tsunade has one vote, Tsunade has one vote..."

The person who counted the votes obviously got the medical ninja pile.

He kept saying Tsunade's name.

Mito Kadobu, who was sitting in the back, had a dark face. Originally, he nominated the master just to disgust Uchiha Natsuki.

Now it seems that he has completely shot himself in the foot. All the Jonin in the medical system voted for Tsunade.

But fortunately, Mito Monobu raised his head and glanced at the Third Hokage who was chatting with the daimyo.

Fortunately, Hiruzen had made backup preparations. No matter how hard you, Uchiha Natsuki, struggled, you were destined to fail.

Mito Menyan thought of this and his expression relaxed.
