Chapter 463 I propose... Shinomiya Qingyu! Seeking the moon
"Jiraiya, besides you, is there a more suitable candidate in Konoha right now?"
"Hiruzhan has always hoped that you could become Hokage and lead Konoha to the light during his lifetime. Do you want to go against your teacher's last wish?"
Mito Kadeni and Koharu, who have jumped back to disrupt the situation, are trying different tricks to persuade Jiraiya to change his mind.
They thought it would be easy to recommend Jiraiya to become Hokage. After all, in their view, Sarutobi was buried just before his death and Jiraiya came back right after. How could it not be for the position of Hokage?
But Jiraiya proved with actual actions that he really had no idea about the position of Hokage and even avoided it.
He simply heard the news, so he rushed back to mourn the teacher.
As for the Hokage, he doesn't want to accept this mess, and he doesn't care who becomes the Hokage.
All he wants now is to find Orochimaru, let Orochimaru kneel in front of his teacher's grave to admit his mistake, and then let him slap him to death!
So facing the two advisers... Oh, he is just an elder now. Faced with the earnest persuasion of the two elders, he refused directly and indifferently: "I really can't bear the important task of being Hokage. The two elders should stop persuading me.
Yes, I believe that Konoha is full of talents and we will be able to select a Hokage that everyone can convince."
"Tsunade is more suitable to be the Hokage than me."
"Can you find Tsunade and persuade her to come back and take over the position of Hokage?" Koharu asked coldly when he went to bed.
"Well, I can go find him... By the way, Kakashi is also very good. I recommend Kakashi to be the Hokage."
"That boy from the Hatake family..."
The expressions of Mito Monobu and Koharu who had transferred to the dormitory changed somewhat, but in their hearts they directly sentenced Kakashi to death. As long as they could still have the final say, they would definitely not let Kakashi become Hokage.
Don't forget, the two of them were also involved in forcing Sakumo to death.
There is no guarantee that Kakashi will settle this old score after he becomes Hokage.
Therefore, Jiraiya and Tsunade are the most suitable, and among them, Jiraiya's casual personality is the most reassuring to them.
By then, maybe the two of them can still hold the power and experience the 'fun' of being half a Hokage.
Otherwise, why would they be so active?
As soon as Sarutobi died, he couldn't wait to go to the Fire Country Daimyo to lobby!
As for the friendship they once had, it had completely disappeared when Sarutobi stabbed them in the back.
"Anyway, we will list you as the Hokage candidate at tomorrow's meeting. If you are the fifth Hokage, no one can gossip."
Mito Kaden and Koharu, who had transferred to another dormitory, did not give Jiraiya a chance to continue arguing, and just relied on their seniority to settle the matter, which also made Jiraiya very disgusted.
But it was really impossible for him to sit back and watch Konoha fall into chaos.
So after sighing for the 4396th time, he decided to go and have a look tomorrow. If there is still a suitable candidate, then he will quit. If there is really no one else, then he will follow the teacher's example and take the name of acting Hokage first, and then wait.
Tsunade comes back, or she abdicates in favor of a suitable Hokage candidate.
After thinking about it clearly, he finally stopped having a headache, so he just did it.
It's just that at this moment, Jiraiya couldn't imagine what would happen in tomorrow's meeting, let alone that the one who 'competed' with him for the position of Hokage would actually be a teenager.
............
The next day, the conference room of the Hokage Building was filled with people.
The people responsible for leading this meeting were Uchiha Fugaku and Hyuga Hizashi, as well as the two "deceitful" veteran gangsters, Mito Kadenen and Kaden Koharu.
The rest of the people are responsible for observing and recording, and voting on the candidate for Hokage.
After the meeting began, Koharu made a preemptive suggestion: "I suggest that Jiraiya, the disciple of the late Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the teacher of the Fourth Hokage, and one of the Sannin of Konoha, serve as the Fifth Hokage!"
"It just so happens that Jiraiya has returned from traveling. Whether it is reputation, strength or other aspects, it is perfect for him to serve as Hokage."
After Koharu finished his speech, everyone couldn't help but nodded. Including Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hizashi, they had to admit that Jiraiya did have the qualifications. In terms of qualifications, only Princess Tsunade could compete with him.
Comparable to it.
Looking at this resume and connections, it is indeed a bit too luxurious.
Both the teacher and the disciple are Hokages, they are both powerful and prestigious, and they don't have any negative image... Oh, lust may count as one, but it doesn't hurt.
So after everyone nodded, Mito Kaden and Koharu Koharu immediately looked at each other confidently, and then called Jiraiya in.
After sitting down, Jiraiya said nothing and his eyes were very sad. He really didn't want to be the Hokage.
Perhaps God heard his voice, so the following meeting was a sudden change!
"Since no one objects, then we will jointly report Jiraiya to the daimyo and wait for the appointment..."
"Wait a moment!"
Uchiha Fugaku suddenly spoke, interrupting Koharu who was sleeping.
"I remember that today's meeting only proposed alternative candidates, right? Although the candidates proposed by the two elders are very suitable, are they a little too impatient?"
After turning to bed, Koharu immediately snorted, "Besides Jiraiya, is there any more suitable candidate at the moment? Maybe Her Highness Tsunade is one, but her whereabouts are still unknown, and she didn't even show up when such a major thing happened.
We can't keep the position of Hokage until she comes back, right?"
Koharu, who was transferred to bed, was very powerful. She knew that there was Tsunade who could compete with Jiraiya, so she mentioned it herself before others could bring it up.
Then he used irrefutable facts to 'disqualify' Tsunade, which directly blocked the mouths of others.
But the problem is that the candidate Uchiha Fugaku is about to propose is not Tsunade...
Uchiha Fugaku first nodded and acknowledged her words, "What the elder said makes sense...", and then changed the subject and said: "But I think there may not be any other candidates besides His Highness Tsunade.
have a discussion."
Mito Kadoyan immediately sneered, "Who? Hatake Kakashi? Don't forget that he is an ANBU member. Although he has made many contributions to the village, his reputation is not obvious. How can such a person convince the public when he becomes the Hokage?
?”
Uchiha Fugaku smiled and shook his head, "The candidate I want to propose is not Hatake Kakashi, but someone who is qualified to be the Hokage candidate in terms of strength, prestige, fame, etc."
Mito Kado and Koharu's expressions immediately changed, and they began to think secretly, why didn't they know that there was such a person in Konoha?
After all, a certain kid was not even on the list in their minds...
Then, under everyone's stunned gaze, Uchiha Fugaku gently spoke a name.
