Fifth Generation Uchiha Legend

Chapter 65 Taking The Blame And Resigning

As Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, the crowd returned to silence, seemingly shocked by the Third Hokage's resignation.

"Third Generation, are you sure?"

"Third Generation, have you thought about it clearly?"

The two consultants on the high platform seemed not to know the news, and instead asked for confirmation.

"Well! As a Hokage, I can't bear the responsibility for the village's loss. Only my resignation can be worthy of the heroes who protect Konoha."

The three people on the high platform spoke to each other and cooperated with each other, making the Third Generation's resignation seem very tragic.

When it comes to electing Hokage, although the votes of the Jōnin are important, the appointment of the previous Hokage is also very important. The succession of the Third Hokage is purely the appointment of the Second Hokage.

"Then let's nominate Hokage. I think the four candidates who can serve as the next generation of Hokage are Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Namikaze Minato. How about nominating from these four people?"

Mitokado Homura proposed four candidates, and it seemed to be a very fair way for everyone to run. He did not mention Hatake Sakumo and Uchiha Naroti, the heroes of the Ninja War.

The Jōnin in the field were recovering from the shock of the Third Hokage announcing their resignation. At the same time, the Jōnin were talking a lot about the four Hokage candidates introduced by Mitokado Homura.

Naraku couldn't help but sneer after hearing Mitokado Homura's words, but did not express an opinion, preparing to let the bullets fly for a while.

However, many of the Uchiha Jōnin behind Naraku raised their eyebrows and looked a little angry.

An Uchiha Jōnin, with raised eyebrows and fierce eyes, wanted to stand up and speak out, but was pushed down by the Uchiha Jōnin next to him.

"what are you doing?"

Jōnin, whose eyebrows were raised, felt unhappy and asked the Jōnin who was holding him down. The Jōnin who was holding him down pointed at Naraku.

The angry Jōnin looked at the clan leader Naraku, and saw Naraku making a silencing gesture towards him, indicating not to speak.

Seeing Naraku's gesture, this Jōnin was still unhappy. The Hokage candidates are all disciples and disciples of the Third Generation. Which position are they retreating from?

This Jōnin is itching to nominate his clan leader, Uchiha Naraku.

"Don't be impatient. The patriarch should make his own arrangements. We just have to obey orders."

Uchiha Jōnin next to him once again comforted the angry Uchiha Jōnin and signaled him not to act rashly.

"snort!"

After some pulling, Jōnin, whose eyebrows were raised, calmed down a little, snorted coldly, and stopped looking at the senior officials on the high platform.

After Mitokado Homura spoke up, he looked at the situation on the field and found that there was generally no problem with his proposed list of candidates. Sannin and Yellow Flash were prestigious enough to serve as Hokage.

Mitokado Homura turned his attention to the ninja clans such as Hyuga and Uchiha. The Hyuga clan has never participated in the power of Konoha. It has always been wise to protect themselves and listen to whoever is the Hokage.

Uchiha has always wanted to fight for the position of Hokage. Mitokado Homura looked at many Uchiha's Jōnin and his face turned red, obviously angry.

Mitokado Homura nodded slightly and understood that as a core member of the Hokage department, it was impossible for him to nominate Uchiha.

"En-sama's nomination is very good, but I think Hatake Sakumo-sama is also capable of serving as Hokage and protecting our Konoha,

There is also Uchiha Naraku-sama who defeated Mist Shinobi and Sand Shinobi. He is also fully capable of serving as Hokage. I would like to ask Lord En why he did not nominate these two Konoha heroes. "

A Konoha Jōnin stood up and questioned. There are all types of Jōnin who are members of the Jōnin class. There are civilian Jōnin who support everyone. Many civilian Jōnin will be afraid of the Hokage forces, but many civilian Jōnin are fearless and speak with facts.

Naraku turned his head and looked at the Konoha Jōnin, a strange Konoha Jōnin. Naraku felt that he had no impression. Naraku was a little confused about the nomination of this Jōnin.

But he saw Akita Yuya next to Jōnin. Akita Yuya saw Naraku's eyes and gave Naraku a look of support.

Naraku knew clearly that Jōnin's promotion usually required Jōnin's support and approval before he could be promoted, so generally Jōnin actually had a circle.

Jōnin Akira Yuya seems to have some authority and a strong voice in his own small circle.

During the Battle of Mount Kikyo, Jōnin Akira Yuya's left arm was saved by Naraku and was attacked by Sand Shinobi Scorch Style. He could have survived, but even if he was lucky, his left arm would have to be amputated.

But Naraku's rescue was timely. His left arm had just been injured and had not completely lost its activity. Under the full force of the Healing Jutsu, it returned to normal. There may be some effects, but at least the appearance is the same as a normal arm.

Mitokado Homura didn't look angry when he heard that Jōnin questioned his list. Instead, he nodded in agreement and said in a deep voice:

"It makes sense, but I was indeed negligent. If you have Jōnin you recognize, or recommend, you can nominate. The Jōnin class will vote, and the top five will be the candidates, and then the Hokage will be determined."

"Jōnin, please write the name of the Jōnin you support with pen and paper, submit it to the campaign box, and then confirm your candidacy."

Utatane Koharu added, clapped his hands, and two Hokage Building service staff came in. One was carrying a box that looked like a mailbox, and the other was carrying a plate with pen and paper on it.

After the two came in, they divided the work. One person placed the box on Jōnin's desk in the front row, so that Jōnin could vote after writing his name.

Another person handed out paper and pens. Just like in the ninja school, paper and pens were given out in the first row and then passed to the back.

After receiving the paper and pen, the Jōnin picked up the pen and wrote down the candidates they supported on the paper. Some Jōnin did not take any action after receiving the paper and pen.

There were nearly forty members of the Hyuga family. After receiving the pen and paper, Jōnin placed them flat on the table without moving.

"Please write your name and vote in the mailbox. I will count the votes then."

Namikaze Minato, the Jōnin class monitor, stood up, put the note into the mailbox, and said to the Jōnin at the same time.

Namikaze Minato has golden hair and blue eyes. Many Jōnin who have fought alongside Namikaze Minato, after seeing Namikaze Minato, no longer hesitated, wrote their names of support, stood up and delivered it to the mailbox.

Naraku looked at the situation, no longer hesitated, wrote his name on the note, and handed it to Uchiha Yashiro next to him.

"Collect the votes from the tribe and go deliver them."

"Um!"

Yashiro took the note, stood up, collected the votes of the Uchiha Jōnin, and walked to the mailbox with a handful in each hand.

"Uchiha Naraku is really interested in the position of Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Yashiro holding a large pile of notes and thought to himself.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu looked at Uchiha Yashiro's vote, their eyes flickering as if they were thinking.
