Chapter Five Hundred and Fiftieth Chapter Four Generations of Purpose Candidates
At the gate of Konoha Hidden Village, several figures slowly walked into the gate of Konoha.
"Kakashi, Obito, thank you for today!"
"I'll treat you to barbecue later!"
Lin walked into the gate of Konoha, suddenly turned around and smiled softly.
Thanks to Kakashi and Obito arriving at the Iwagakure ninja's lair in time, she was able to return to Konoha safe and sound!
"Hahaha, it's okay Lin, this is all as it should be, we are companions!"
Obito grinned. Hearing that Lin was going to treat him to dinner, Obito felt happy, but unfortunately Kakashi was also going.
Kakashi glanced at Rin and Obito with complicated eyes.
If Obito hadn't suddenly woken him up this time, this incident would probably have made him feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Seeing that Lin was safe and sound, Kakashi knew that he had made the right decision, "Lin, the person you should thank the most this time is Obito!"
Kakashi glanced at Obito with complicated eyes, said in a deep voice, and then left the gate of Konoha Hidden Village.
"Kakashi!"
Kakashi left, and Obito thought he would chuckle inwardly because he got the chance to be alone with Lin.
In fact, it was not the case. After hearing Minato-sensei talk about Kakashi's father, Obito somewhat understood Kakashi's behavior.
"Minato-sensei, you should go too! Lin's eyes turned to Minato who was aside.
"Lin, I won't go, Kushina is still waiting for me at home!"
Minato smiled softly. On the battlefield today, Minato had been facing the constant attacks of Iwagakure ninjas. He was physically and mentally exhausted and just wanted to go home.
"All right!"
After Minato left, only Obito and Rin were left at the gate of Konoha!
Harano Lin was abducted by the ninjas of Iwagakure Village, and Kakashi and Obito had different ideas.
Kakashi was affected by his father's incident and advocated giving priority to tasks, but Obito put his companions first.
The two argued for a while. After Kakashi heard Obito's last words, his heart was shaken, and then Kakashi also decided to save his companions first.
At this time, Obito has arrived at the lair of the Iwagakure ninja to fight the enemy. With the ability to penetrate, Obito can deal with the Iwagakure ninja with ease.
Kakashi then rushed to the Iwagakure ninja's lair and joined the battlefield.
Obito and Kakashi broke into the lair of the Iwagakure ninjas and started a fierce battle with the ninjas of Iwagakure.
The ninjas of Iwagakure used Earth Release to collapse the cave, and Kakashi Obito and Rin ran towards the exit of the cave.
In the process of their return after successfully rescuing Lin, Kakashi was knocked to the ground by collapsed rubble, and Obito immediately returned to rescue Kakashi.
Because Obito had activated his ability to penetrate, the huge rock penetrated Obito's body without injuring him.
Kakashi and Lin both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
...
At the gate of Konoha Hidden Village, the Konoha ninjas guarding the gate began to talk about it.
"Thanks to Lord Minato for leading the team and destroying the Kannabi Bridge on the front line, winning Konoha a victory!"
The guard standing at the gate saw that no one was returning to the village nearby, so the two ninjas gathered together and started talking!
"Who says it isn't!"
"I heard that the Sandaime has already planned to abdicate, and the next candidate for Hokage may be Minato-sama!"
A Konoha ninja approached another Konoha ninja's ear and spoke softly.
"No way! I remember that Orochimaru-sama is the Sandaime's most promising disciple, and Tsunade-sama also returned to the village not long ago!"
This ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village had a look of surprise on his face.
As far as he knew, Orochimaru had always been valued by the Sandaime in Konoha. Could it be that something happened that he knew about?
And Lady Tsunade, who left the village before, has also returned.
Tsunade-sama is also a disciple of the Third Generation, so in terms of seniority, it is not Minato's turn to be Hokage!
"Who knows!"
"But Minato-sama, Orochimaru-sama, and Tsunade-sama all have a chance. I believe it won't be long before the Sandaime-sama makes a decision!"
The Konoha ninjas shrugged. They, the grassroots ninjas, could not participate in such high-level decisions.
But no matter who becomes the Hokage of Konoha, he will try his best to lead the village to prosperity.
In the battle of Kannabi Bridge, Minato destroyed Kannabi Bridge, laying the foundation for Konoha's victory in the Third Ninja War!
Konoha defeated Iwagakure, and Minato was highly respected in Konoha Hidden Village.
Whether it is Konoha's Jonin or the grassroots ninja, the way they look at Minato is different from before!
Today, Minato is already a popular candidate to compete for the Hokage of Konoha!
...
In a jungle of Konoha, there is a secret settlement of Konoha Hidden Village, which is Orochimaru's experimental base.
"Very good, we already have some clues!"
In the laboratory of the experimental base, Orochimaru murmured in a calm tone.
A small step in the experiment was completed, but there was no joy on Orochimaru's face.
Orochimaru's results were somewhat different from what he initially expected.
"Orochimaru, it's been so long, the experiment should have made progress!"
A cold voice suddenly came from behind Orochimaru.
"Lord Danzo, why do you have time to come to my place!"
"I heard that the Sandaime intends to abdicate. Will the next Hokage be Danzo-sama?"
Orochimaru turned around with an evil smile on his face.
Orochimaru naturally knows Danzo's ambitions, so he can cooperate with Danzo with confidence.
And given the third generation's character, he would never recommend Danzo to be the next Hokage.
"Hmph!" Danzo snorted coldly.
For a long time, becoming Hokage seems to have been Danzo's obsession.
Danzo was very dissatisfied with Hiruzen Sarutobi's policies and had always wanted to seize the position of Hokage.
After becoming Hokage, he can also control the power of Konoha to realize his idea of unifying the ninja world.
"That guy Hiruzen wants to abdicate, but the candidate for Hokage in his heart is not you Orochimaru!"
A cold look flashed in the depths of Danzo's eyes, he knew that Hiruzen Sarutobi would not agree to him becoming Hokage.
So he chose to recommend Orochimaru, whom Sarutobi Hiruzen had previously favored, to become Hokage.
However, as soon as Danzo proposed the idea, Sarutobi Hiruzen rejected Orochimaru.
"It seems that Sarutobi-sensei wants to choose Hokage between Tsunade and Minato!"
Orochimaru's tone was calm, as if not being able to become Hokage had any impact on him.
...
Konoha Hidden Village, Tsunade's residence.
"I didn't expect that you would actually mention the idea of becoming Hokage to the Sandaime!"
In the quiet room, Jiang Feng saw a strange look in Tsunade's eyes and said with a slightly surprised tone.
Tsunade returned to the hotel and told him that she wanted to become Hokage. He was very surprised.
The last time Tsunade traveled through time and space, she saw the Thousand-Armed Rope Tree. After returning, Tsunade's mentality changed a lot.
He felt that since they returned to Konoha and he mentioned the Hokage matter, Tsunade seemed to have made some kind of decision secretly in her heart.
"Actually, I had this idea in my mind before returning to the village this time!" A look of determination flashed in Tsunade's beautiful eyes.
