Civilian Naruto: Becoming invincible from the Eight Gates

Chapter 141 Angry Danzo

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone present looked serious.

The selection of Hokage not only affects the development of the village, but also the future direction of each ninja clan.

However, with the experience from the last time, the ninja clans did not express their opinions immediately, but asked: "What does the top management mean?"

"Do you have a fixed candidate to recommend, or..."

Utane Koharu said, "Anyone can recommend one."

After thinking for a while, he added: "As long as the candidate is suitable, everyone will vote."

As soon as these words were spoken, the leaders of each ninja clan looked at each other, all of them were a little surprised and excited.

What Utane Koharu said sent a signal that the selection of Hokage this time would no longer be decided by the elder advisors alone.

Only Danzo who was sitting in his seat frowned.

Originally, he thought that he was the only one who could be the Hokage this time.

After all, his biggest old rival Sarutobi Hiruzen is already offline, so as long as he gets the support of the other two advisors, the position of Hokage is almost certain.

Unexpectedly, Utane Koharu suddenly said that she wanted to have a collective vote.

What do you mean! You didn't even inform me before making the decision?

Thinking about the relationship between himself and the various families, he felt that it might be a little more difficult for him to become Hokage.

But then he remembered that there were many ninja clan members serving in the Root.

[In this case, it is hard to say. ]

Thinking of this, Danzo's eyes became more confident.

"If anyone has a candidate you like, please put forward your name." As Mitomon En spoke, everyone present looked at each other and began to discuss suitable candidates.

"How's Hatake Kakashi?"

"Hatake Kakashi... a disciple of the Fourth Hokage. His status is decent and his strength is OK. But he hasn't been in great shape since his father's death."

"Are there any capable people from the same era as the Fourth Hokage?"

“Yes, but they are not very suitable.”

"The next generation, except for Hatake Kakashi, the others don't seem suitable."

Xiurihong is a woman and her own strength is not enough to convince others.

Yuan Fei Asuma is okay, but Sarutobi Hiruzen has been in power for too long, and no one will agree to let someone from the Sarutobi clan serve as Hokage again.

As for Might Guy...

Think about others.

Just when everyone was having trouble deciding, Nara Shikaku said, "Jiraiya is back."

The sound in the field suddenly stopped.

Then someone asked in surprise: "Really?"

"Really. We should be gathering materials somewhere in Konoha right now."

"I choose Lai Ye!"

"I choose Raiya-sama too!"

"I support!"

"agree!"

"Master Jiraiya is the one that everyone wants!"

"What about Lady Tsunade? She's also a Sannin, and the granddaughter of the Shodaime!"

"What's the point of not being able to find someone."

Just like that, everyone unanimously agreed that Jiraiya would succeed as Hokage.

In the corner, Danzo's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

[It turns out that you have never considered me! How ridiculous! ]

Naturally, everyone noticed Danzo's ugly expression, but no one paid any attention.

As the patriarch of the various clans in Konoha and a former companion, everyone knows what kind of person Danzo is.

The position of Hokage is not suitable for Danzo.

Even the patriarchs of each tribe are not suitable.

The most suitable candidate for Hokage in everyone's mind is preferably someone without a family background, with outstanding talents, and who has made military achievements.

After the first and second generations, the Senju clan declined.

The fourth generation was a civilian ninja.

Only the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen had a family behind him. When he died, not a single confidant came...

...

Danzo ultimately did not actively run for election.

No matter how confident he was, he knew that compared to Jiraiya, he would not have much support from others.

The moment the other party returned to Konoha, the place he had been thinking about already had an owner.

After the meeting, Suzumiya Musashi was about to leave with a relaxed look on his face, but was kept back.

"Elder Koharu, are you looking for me?" Suzumiya Musashi looked at the two consultants in front of him in confusion.

"That's right." Utane Koharu said in a serious tone, "Someone reported that you attacked the great elder of the Hyuga clan and killed people from Kumogakure."

"You need to explain yourself."

It turned out that someone had filed a complaint.

Suzumiya Musashi said: "Elder Koharu, Great Elder Hyuga came to my house to cause trouble. I had no choice but to fight back."

"Don't you think that he, a ninja from Konoha, is walking with the ninja from Kumogakure? Isn't that too much?"

Utane Koharu looked unhappy: "What about killing Kumogakure?"

"They took advantage of the chaos to kidnap Konoha's Byakugan. I can't just sit there and wait for them to die."

"Suzumiya Musashi!" Utane Koharu's face was as dark as water: "I already know everything that happened. You were too reckless!"

"Not to mention Kumogakure, the great elder of Hyuga is already an old man, how could you be so harsh!"

Suzumiya Musashi's face also darkened.

What is an old man?

I am just a withered bone like you, unwilling to be lonely.

Looking at the stern-looking Utane Koharu in front of him, there was no respect in his eyes anymore.

"When you get old, you should stay at your coffin and not wander around."

Utane Koharu's eyes widened: "You!"

Suzumiya Musashi didn't even bother to respond and just turned around and left.

"I am an ANBU directly under Hokage-sama. Only the Hokage has the authority to rule over me."

"It's not your turn."

"..."

Walking out of the office, ignoring the faint sound of a teacup breaking behind him, Suzumiya Musashi gathered his thoughts and went home to practice!

In the next few days, the ninjas of Konoha were busy.

The damaged buildings need to be rebuilt and the relatives of the dead ninjas need to be comforted.

In order to prevent other villages from attacking Konoha when it was weak, all available forces were mobilized. Even Uzumaki Naruto and his group of Genin began to patrol and guard the village.

What surprised Suzumiya Musashi was that even when there was such a shortage of manpower, he was not assigned any tasks.

"Captain, what's going on? Don't the ANBU have any missions?"

Suzumiya Musashi asked when Yamato came to his house.

"Musashi, actually... the ANBU still has a mission."

"The Anbu has a mission?" Suzumiya Musashi was surprised.

“Why didn’t I get notified?”

Yamato was a little embarrassed.

"That's what the elders meant."

"You are not on the list of tasks released."

"I'm being frozen?" Suzumiya Musashi widened his eyes.

[There is such a good thing!? ]

“Not necessarily.” Yamato said, “Maybe the elders think you need to rest for a while.”
