Naruto: This Uchiha is a businessman.

It’s not that Kushina overestimates herself, but her existence is indeed very important to Konoha. If something goes wrong with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he can destroy half of Konoha.

"Don't worry, Kushina, I will save some people if I can."

Minato Namikaze didn't want to make his wife sad, so he tried hard to persuade her.

"No, you have to protect yourself."

Kushina shook her head. Her husband was more important than her best friend. Besides, she was not as confident as her husband that this war would be successful.

She has the Nine-Tailed Fox in her body. When she first met Lu Lin, the Nine-Tailed Fox reminded her that something was wrong with Lu Lin and told her to stay away from him.

At that time, I didn’t understand why the Nine-Tailed Fox had such a big reaction. Now that I think about it, it must be that Lu Lin’s strength is enough to threaten the Nine-Tailed Fox.

At that time, he was able to scare the most powerful tailed beast. After so much time, Kushina didn't think that Lu Lin's strength had not changed at all.

"Don't worry Kushina, I will come back safely."

Minato Namikaze didn't think too much about it, he just thought that his wife was caring about him, and carefully held Kushina in his arms.

Although the news that Minato Namikaze would become the commander this time was not spread, some people still knew about it.

boom!

The door to the Hokage's office was suddenly pushed open, and Danzo walked in angrily:

"Huruzen, I don't agree to let Minato be the commander-in-chief this time!"

Ever since Orochimaru stopped participating in the fight for the position of Hokage, Danzo has always been confident that it is a foregone conclusion that he will become the next Hokage.

But no matter how much they planned, they didn't expect that a civilian ninja would suddenly appear.

In fact, this is not a big deal. He is just a civilian ninja. As the head of the Root and a high-ranking official of Konoha, he has plenty of ways to suppress the other party's reputation in the village.

But, the trouble is, this guy actually became the husband of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

As a result, some of his small actions would not be easy to carry out, because Sarutobi Hiruzen had given him orders personally, and someone was watching him.

Afterwards, Danzo could only watch as Minato Namikaze's reputation in the village grew higher and higher, and the calls for him to become the Fourth Hokage grew louder and louder.

This time, the five major ninja villages besieged the Tea Country, which was a clear achievement. Almost everyone believed that this war was a military achievement that came right to their doorstep. Danzo was even more reluctant to give this opportunity to Minato Namikaze.

"Minato Namikaze does not have enough experience, nor does he have much war experience. He is not qualified to be the commander-in-chief."

Since his debut, Minato Namikaze has only participated in one Ninja World War, and he participated as a captain. He was not even the deputy commander.

Therefore, Danzo could attack in this direction and try to change Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision.

"This war is not difficult at all. It's a good opportunity for Minato Namikaze to get more training."

He saw at a glance what his old friend was up to, and said calmly:

"Besides, Minato is a strong enough kid to be in command, and he has Nara Shikaku to assist him, so there's no need to worry."

Danzo's face was a little grim. Was he worried? After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth:

"Namikaze Minato is still young and has many opportunities to gain experience. Let him be the deputy commander this time. The commander-in-chief must be replaced!"

As they were talking, the Hokage's elders came in.

"We agree with what Danzo said. Let Minato Namikaze serve as deputy commander first. If there is a war next time, he can become the commander-in-chief."

Utane Koharu said this, and Mito Kado En nodded in agreement naturally.

Although he is the Hokage, it is difficult for Sarutobi Hiruzen to make a decision on his own if the elders unite to reject his decision.

"Xiaochun, Menyan, do you understand what you are doing?"

He didn't expect that these two people would stand next to Danzo this time.

"Huruzen, what Danzo said is correct. Namikaze Minato is indeed too young now."

Utane Koharu said this, and Mito Kado En also joined in.

"you..."

Looking at the two of them, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly had a headache. He didn't know what benefits Danzo had given them to make these two people talk to him.

Looking at the hesitant Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo felt much more relieved. He knew that as long as there were many people opposing him, given Sarutobi Hiruzen's temperament, he would definitely hesitate or even cancel his own decision.

So before coming here, he found Utane Koharu in advance and promised her many benefits, such as how much investment he would make in the Utane family and how much benefits they would provide after he became Hokage.

There's no need to go to Mitomon En's place, Utane Koharu will naturally go there and talk to him in person.

"If Minato can't take the position, what good options do you have?"

Looking at the two elders who "betrayed" him, Sarutobi Hiruzen said coldly.

"Let's take Orochimaru. He has sufficient qualifications and experience, and his prestige among ninjas is also sufficient."

Danzo said, he didn't say himself, and he knew very well that Sarutobi Hiruzen would never let him be the commander-in-chief no matter what.

In his opinion, since Orochimaru had given up the fight for the position of Hokage, no matter how high his reputation was, it would not pose any threat to him. What's more, he had some things about Orochimaru that could not be made public.

Human experimentation is something that is strictly prohibited in the entire Konoha.

"Orochimaru..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo deeply. He did not recommend himself, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen a little surprised.

However, Orochimaru is suitable. Regardless of his strength, his status as the Hokage's disciple is enough, and he is more suitable than Minato Namikaze.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen always felt that his old friend was hiding something from him.

"Okay, call Orochimaru over."

Ever since Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru left for apprenticeship, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt more and more that he had lost control of his disciples.

Jiraiya is okay. If I really give a death order, he will listen to it to some extent. But Orochimaru and Tsunade are different. Tsunade is the princess of Konoha, and the first and second Hokage are her grandfathers. I can't force her too much.

Orochimaru is very opinionated and firm in his opinions. Although he was once the Fourth Hokage that Sarutobi Hiruzen most favored, unfortunately, this disciple of his later experienced some bad things, which made his temperament not suitable for the position of Hokage.

I feel that it would be more appropriate for the other party to become the root of Konoha.

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking, Orochimaru in the laboratory also received the news.
