Chapter 58 The Fifth Hokage

 In front of the long table, the topic is in progress.

A bespectacled Fire Nation executive said: "The village has been severely damaged. We, the Fire Nation, will fully support the reconstruction of the village, and will also allocate funds for the compensation of fallen ninjas. Prepare the budget first, and leave this to you.

.”

Mito Kadenen, one of the advisors to the elders of Konoha, nodded: "Yes, the list of dead has been counted. 21 jounin died, 42 chunin died, and 39 genin died. In addition, the missing list is also being counted."

"Missing? If they get lost, won't it be over if they find them on their own?" At this time, the old man sitting in the front seat wearing strange clothes asked strangely. He was the name of the Fire Country and the nominal ruler of the Fire Country.

.

The elder Mito Kaden and Koharu, who had moved to bed, looked at each other in embarrassment, not knowing what to say to this idiot daimyo, but Danzo, who was sitting beside him, suddenly said in a cold voice:

"Daimyo-sama, the so-called 'missing' refers to a situation where even the bodies cannot be found due to too fierce a battle or disaster. In this Konoha collapse disaster, there were as many as seven 'missing' jounin alone.

!”

The daimyo raised his fan to cover his mouth in embarrassment, shaking the fan slightly to show that he understood.

In order to ease the atmosphere, the bespectacled Fire Nation executive quickly asked: "Have the missing jounin been counted? Who are they?"

"Moonlight Gale, Toriyama Dark, Kubo Obito, Mitarashi Anko, Asukaishi, Sarutobi Ryuumasa, Yamanaka Kaiichi." Mito Kaden's voice was heavy. Although he occasionally played tricks, his love for Konoha Village did not exist in his heart.

No less than the Third Hokage. Now that Konoha Village has suffered such heavy losses and lost a large number of ninjas, even an old fox like Mito Kadoen is heartbroken.

"Yamanaka Haiichi? Yamanaka...isn't that Shikaku-sama's friend?" The bespectacled Fire Country executive looked at Nara Shikaku sitting at the end of the long table in surprise.

Nara Shikaku has a long scar on his face, a head of black hair tightly tied on top of his head like a pineapple head, and a goatee. He is the leader of the Nara clan, one of the ninja clans in Konoha Village, and is also a member of Konoha's jounin class.

Captain, recognized as Konoha's number one strategist and strategist.

When Yamanaka Kaiichi, Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Choza were young, they were the famous "Ino Shika Butterfly" combination in the ninja world, and they had a very good relationship. Faced with the questions from the senior officials of the Fire Country, Nara Shikaku looked calm: "Haiichi is helping.

He was involved in a tailed beast attack while on the viewing platform. Unfortunately, his remains were not found."

"So that's it." Feeling that the atmosphere was getting more and more awkward, the senior official of the Fire Nation who wore glasses pondered for a while and said, "Is the Sandaime Hokage okay? I didn't see the Hokage attending the meeting today. I don't know..."

"Hiruzhan's arms are disabled and he is currently receiving treatment from the best medical ninja team in Konoha Village."

Danzo suddenly interrupted the words of the top management of the Fire Country:

"The most important issue today should be to elect the [Fifth Hokage] as soon as possible, right?"

Hearing this, Nara Shikaku glanced at Uchiha Suzan sitting next to him and said nothing.

At this time, Su Zhan folded his arms in front of him and closed his eyes to rest, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Seeing Su Zhan's appearance, Shikaku fell into deep thought.

The conflict between Uchiha Suzan and Shimura Danzo is not a secret in the village. In fact, neither of them is on the final list of candidates for the Council of Elders. The elders of Konoha Village are more inclined to choose Jiraiya as the fifth generation Hokage.

Regardless of his military exploits, reputation or strength, Jiraiya is the best choice. The best thing is that Jiraiya has very little desire for power, and it is easier for the Council of Elders to 'admonish' him.

Uchiha Speed ​​​​Zan and Shimura Danzo are different. Although Uchiha Speed ​​​​Zan is extremely powerful, his acting style is too tough and sharp, and he lacks the most basic respect for the Elders Council. The Elders Council will never recommend someone who is completely out of control and does not listen to advice.

The hawk of admonishment serves as Hokage.

Most of the dark activities Shimura Danzo had participated in were heard by the Presbyterian Council. He was more suitable to stay in the dark and do dirty work for Konoha, and was not suitable to step up to the front and serve as Hokage. In other words, the Presbyterian Council looked down upon Danzo.

From Shikaku's point of view, today's council is just a situation. The Council of Elders will definitely be the first to nominate Jiraiya. The Daimyo of the Fire Country has met Jiraiya before. Considering that from the second generation Hokage to the fourth generation Hokage, they are all the same.

Jiraiya is the fourth-generation Hokage's master and the third-generation Hokage's disciple. He will be favored by the great names of the Fire Country both emotionally and rationally.

Then Danzo would definitely not be able to sit still and come forward to recommend himself and find another candidate to step on, such as Uchiha Suzan. Uchiha Suzan would definitely not tolerate Danzo, and there was a high possibility that even if the two of them did not attack Uchiha Suzan at the meeting,

Leave directly.

Because according to Shikaku's analysis, Uchiha Suzan has been thinking of retiring since he lost both his career and love to the fourth Hokage, Namikaze Shuito.

Not to mention that the fifth-generation Hokage seems to Suzan to have taken over from the fourth-generation Hokage. If Suzan really wants to be the fifth-generation Hokage, wouldn't he consider himself to be inferior to the fourth-generation Hokage Namikaze? There is Uzumaki Kushina.

The factor is that Uchiha Suzan will never admit that he is inferior to Namikaze Minato. In this way, no matter how you look at it, Uchiha Suzan is completely insulated from the position of the Fifth Hokage.

Looking at Danzo again, in fact, the Daimyo of the Fire Country does not like Danzo. He feels that his actions are too extreme and his style is dark. In other words, he is not grand enough and does not have the upright general style of the past Hokages. He does not have [measurement].

, is a fatal drawback for electing Hokage. In Shikaku's view, Danzo will never be able to serve as Hokage.

The only ones left were Tsunade and Jiraiya.

Of course, if you ask Shikaku what he thinks, he actually prefers Tsunade. She has pure blood and famous teachers, and is the most orthodox Hokage lineage. Moreover, Tsunade herself is a medical ninja, and she knows best what wars and battles will bring.

Terrifying consequences, if she leads the Leaf Village, it will definitely develop smoothly, and people will no longer be trapped by war.

Although Jiraiya was elected to become the Fifth Hokage, based on Shikaku's analysis, there was more than 90% chance that he would refuse and recommend Tsunade instead, and his attitude would be firm.

In this way, if there is no candidate, as long as Tsunade can be brought back, she will be the fifth generation Hokage.

At this time, the issue continues.

The Fire Country daimyo waved his fan: "Is it true that we can't wait for the Third Hokage to recover?"

"The Third Hokage's arms were broken at the elbows, making it impossible to perform ninjutsu. At the same time, three of his left ribs are missing and his left lung needs to be reconstructed using the [Healing and Regeneration Technique]."

Mito Monohan shook his head: "The election of the Fifth Hokage is indeed imminent, Daimyo-sama."

The Daimyo of the Fire Country curled his lips, and then became happy again: "Okay, I have also read your recommendations. To be honest, I quite like Jiraiya. He is the disciple of the Third Hokage and the master of the Fourth Hokage.

He is both famous and powerful, so why not let him..."

"Please wait!" Danzo suddenly stood up.

Here we come, Lu Jiu thought in his heart.

"The teachings of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen were the reason that almost led to the destruction of Konoha Village!"

Danzo slapped his left hand heavily on the table, his tone extremely stern:

"Kindness, compassion, kindness... It is precisely because of this naive idea that has been passed down from generation to generation that led to the betrayal of the Allied Sunagakure Village! Not to mention that the mastermind of all this, Orochimaru, was able to successfully defect from Konoha, all because of

The result of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya's laissez-faire! If they could have even a little bit more responsibility towards Konoha Village and keep Orochimaru, they wouldn't have led to the miserable situation Konoha Village is in today!"

He opened his left eye and looked around. How could those powerless Fire Country senior officials dare to look at Danzo, a veteran ninja who had been on the battlefield for a long time? They all lowered their heads. Mito Katoen, Koharu and others also

There was silence, only Uchiha Suzan still folded his arms and closed his eyes to rest.

A senior Fire Nation executive who had been secretly bribed by Danzo suddenly said: "According to you, Konoha Village does not need a kind Hokage?"

"Exactly! Everyone, I can say without exaggeration that the current Konoha Village is in the most turbulent and dangerous moment since the establishment of the village. Kumoyin Village has always been eyeing Konoha, and once it is known that Konoha has lost its leader, it will suffer

With such a huge loss, they are very likely to send troops to invade the Land of Fire and Konoha Village. In order to avoid retaliation and replenish losses, it is a certainty that Sunagakure Village will join forces with the country that invaded Konoha. Moreover, I have to remind everyone.

About the dispute between Konoha and Iwagakure?"

Danzo tapped his fingers on the table, making a rhythmic sound:

"The Hokage that Konoha Village needs now is not a gentle and generous person, but a ninja who can deal with this tragic situation with ruthless and decisive methods! We need a Hokage who can use this disadvantage to turn around and dominate the strongest country in the ninja world!

"

The strong momentum overwhelmed almost everyone present.

Even Nara Shikaku has nothing to say to refute Danzo. Why did he stay behind closed doors when Konoha collapsed? Danzo would only argue that he was fighting the enemies who invaded Konoha in secret. If he really brought this up

If you do things yourself, you will fall into passivity.

Oops, is Danzo really going to defeat many opponents and become the fifth generation Hokage? Shikaku couldn't sit still when he thought of this, and was about to stand up to persuade the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. If an overly tough leader like Danzo becomes the fifth generation Hokage, he can't sit still.

Naruto is really not a blessing to Konoha.

Before Shikaku could stand up, the Fire Country Daimyo suddenly asked: "So, Danzo Shimura, do you plan to recommend yourself to be Hokage?"

Danzo smiled and bowed slightly:

"No, I want to recommend a ninja who is better than me. This person has the power of Hokage and is the most suitable candidate for Hokage."

"Shura Martial God"

"Oh? There is such a ninja that you can recommend so much?" The Daimyo of the Country of Fire also became interested and leaned forward with great interest.

Then, under the unbelievable gazes of Shikaku and the elders, Danzo turned to look at Suzan, who was resting with his eyes closed, and said loudly:

"I recommend Uchiha Suzan to be the fifth Hokage!"
