Naruto: My mother, Haruno Sakura, is so smart that she is almost a demon

"Then we'll leave first."

Tsunade also noticed that after she refused to become Hokage, everyone's interest was not high. After making sure that Shizune and Tonton were full, she asked Shizune to leave the tavern.

“Lewd Immortal, how could this woman be like this!

That's the position of Hokage! Every Konoha ninja dreams of becoming Hokage!

Is she really qualified to be called a Konoha ninja in this state?

If I ever see her again..."

After Tsunade left, Naruto complained to Jiraiya and Sakura.

"Naruto, shut up!"

Sakura interrupted Naruto in time to prevent him from saying anything excessive.

In the casino, Sakura stuck a small part of her elastic love stick to Tsunade's hairband, which was why she aroused Tsunade's vigilance.

Through the perception of her own chakra, Sakura could clearly feel that Tsunade did not go far, and must be hiding secretly, preparing to eavesdrop.

"You said that not everyone wants to be Hokage.

Not to mention Sasuke and me, didn’t Mr. Jiraiya also refuse the position of Hokage?

Are we all unqualified to be Konoha's ninja?"

Sakura lectured Naruto seriously.

"What? You said that the lecherous sage also refused to be the Hokage?

Really, lecherous immortal? "

Naruto looked at Jiraiya in disbelief.

Jiraiya didn't say anything, just smiled bitterly and nodded.

"Even if not everyone wants to become Hokage, so what? I will never forgive the woman who looks down on the Hokage!"

Naruto tilted his head, still stubborn.

Sakura glanced at Naruto. He also refused the position of Hokage. Why didn't Naruto have any hostility towards Jiraiya?

Maybe it was because Tsunade said that those who wanted to become Hokage were all fools, and this sentence included Minato Namikaze, which stimulated Naruto.

"Tsunade-sama's identity is extraordinary, Naruto, don't you want to become Hokage?

I can tell you responsibly that in the future, if Lady Tsunade objects, you will definitely not be able to become Hokage."

Sakura's expression became more serious.

“Who wants that woman’s support? She is the same age as the Lecherous Immortal and should be almost fifty years old!

I don't need the approval of such hypocritical people.

Even if she disagrees, I will become Hokage and be recognized by everyone in Konoha!"

Naruto's stubborn temper came up and he refused to bow to Tsunade who called the Fourth Hokage a fool.

"Naruto, it's not that the Hokage will be recognized by everyone, but only those who are recognized by everyone can become the Hokage!

If the reason you want to become Hokage is to gain recognition from others, then what you need to do is to gain recognition from others;

But after you get everyone's approval, does it matter whether you become Hokage or not?"

Jiraiya interrupted just in time, trying to correct Naruto's attitude.

After hearing this, Naruto nodded thoughtfully, and then fell into long thought.

Sakura listened to Jiraiya's words and looked at him with great interest:

He truly deserves to be the best teacher in the ninja world. He can easily come up with poisonous chicken soup.

But Sakura is not as easy to fool as Naruto.

"Mr. Jiraiya, if you want to become Hokage, do you really need everyone's approval?

The Third Hokage was directly appointed by the Second Hokage; the Fourth Hokage was able to win with an overwhelming advantage in the vote because of the Third Hokage's recommendation and endorsement; wasn't the Fifth Hokage also decided after consultation between you and the Council of Elders?

Can the top leaders of Konoha represent everyone in Konoha?

If that’s the case, it’s a real eye-opener.”

After Sakura finished speaking, not only Naruto, but even Jiraiya was speechless.

The fact is as Sakura said, although the Hokage of Konoha is nominally elected, in fact, whether a person can become a Hokage still depends on the attitude of the previous Hokage and the higher-ups.

Minato Namikaze is the best example. Although he became famous in the Three Wars, in terms of achievements, he cannot be compared with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru not only participated in the Second World War, but also served as a commander in most cases during the Third World War, rather than a spearhead like Minato; although Minato was indeed very outstanding, Jiraiya had to admit that during the Third World War, Orochimaru's strategic support contributed more to Konoha.

If the Sandaime hadn't campaigned for Minato Namikaze, it would have been difficult for him to defeat Orochimaru in the election.

"Ah—you're right."

Jiraiya sighed. Although he didn't want Naruto to be exposed to the darkness of Konoha too early, he couldn't refute Sakura's words.

But Sakura's output has not stopped yet:

“So in my opinion, it’s not the person who has everyone’s approval who can become Hokage;

But once a person becomes Hokage, others must recognize him, and Konoha can only have one voice.

Didn't Mr. Jiraiya and Lady Tsunade leave Konoha because they didn't approve of some of the Sandaime's actions?"

Sakura's realistic words once again dealt Jiraiya a heavy blow, and he cast a slightly worried look at the stunned Naruto.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jiraiya. I don't think we can keep putting Naruto in a beautiful fairy tale that we have created artificially.

Since he is striving to become Hokage, he will face these problems sooner or later. If he keeps holding on to naive ideas, he will become a giant baby who will never grow up.

Besides, I believe in Naruto. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, he will not give up easily."

After knowing Naruto's special mental state, Sakura knew that no matter what she said, she could not change Naruto's will; but Naruto's morbid optimism would make him ignore the darkness of reality. Sakura hoped that through her words, Naruto would understand this cruel world. If he didn't understand politics at all, even if Naruto became Hokage in the future, he would only be a tool who could not handle anything well.

"Don't worry, Sakura!"

Naruto was not discouraged by Sakura's words. He adjusted the forehead protector on his head and smiled brightly:

“I wanted to become Hokage before because I wanted to gain recognition from others and to carry on my father’s legacy;

After listening to you for so long, I know that there are still many unfair things in Konoha;

But even so, I will definitely become Hokage!

After I become Hokage, all the unfairness you mentioned will be swept into the trash!

I will give everyone who works hard the opportunity to become Hokage!"

Naruto waved his right fist forward to show his determination to Sakura and Jiraiya.

But at this moment, Sakura and Jiraiya were both shocked by Naruto's words -

Jiraiya: Naruto, Naruto, when did you know his life story? Isn't this Konoha's secret?

Sakura: Naruto, Naruto, are you just selling us out? Not telling you your life story before the Third Hokage died was indeed the right decision.

Facing Jiraiya's accusing gaze, Sakura subconsciously dodged.

Outside the tavern, Tsunade covered her right ear with her right hand, and placed her left palm flat on the wall. There was a thin and straight chakra channel between her hands.

This is a basic medical ninjutsu called "Auscultation Technique", which can listen to the lesions in the patient's body by stimulating the auditory nerves and building chakra pathways; it can be said to be an enhanced version of the stethoscope.

Of course, this ninjutsu can also be used to gather intelligence.

“I heard something really interesting.”

Tsunade muttered quietly.

What surprised her was not Naruto's background. After Tsunade saw Naruto's blond hair and blue eyes and sensed the huge amount of chakra in his body, she had already confirmed Naruto's identity.

What really surprised her was Sakura's knowledge of the Hokage heritage.

Tsunade didn't expect that a little girl who had just graduated from the ninja school could have such a thorough understanding of the bad things of the Konoha high-level officials. This not only requires a huge knowledge reserve, but also a superhuman vision.

"If I could have seen the position of Hokage earlier like she did, I might have been able to prevent a lot of things."

Tsunade smiled bitterly and fell into memories.

If I could have told Nawaki earlier that as long as he could grow up safely, he would be a popular candidate for Hokage even if he did nothing...

If I tell Orochimaru, if the old man doesn't agree, he will never be able to become Hokage...
