Fifth Generation Uchiha Legend

Chapter 66 JōNin Vote

In the Jōnin class conference room, many Jōnin dropped their votes into the mailboxes.

"Thinking time is ten minutes. Jōnin please write as soon as possible, otherwise it will be deemed as a waiver."

Many Jōnin in the field did not touch the pen, especially a large number of Jōnin from the Hyuga family. All members did not touch the pen from the beginning to the end. Namikaze Minato urged all the Jōnin to vote and count the votes.

The vote of the Jōnin class is of great reference significance, but it does not mean that the person with the most votes will definitely be elected as Hokage. There are also the opinions of several senior people and the opinions of the Fire Nation Daimyos.

Although the Fire Nation daimyo has little control over Konoha, if he strongly opposes it, he will still have some influence.

"Okay, let's start counting now."

After waiting for about ten minutes, seeing that there was no Jōnin in the room to vote, Namikaze Minato ended the voting session and began to count the votes.

Namikaze Minato took away the outer shell of the envelope box and revealed the glass container inside, which contained many notes. Transparent and open statistics are more convincing to the public.

"Namikaze Minato one vote."

Namikaze Minato picked up the first piece of paper, with his name written on it, and couldn't help but reveal a sunny and shy smile.

"Ahem"

Sarutobi Hiruzen behind him noticed Namikaze Minato's state and couldn't help but cough slightly.

Namikaze Minato suddenly became serious when he heard the coughing sound. As a candidate for Hokage, sunshine is very important, but a majestic aura is more important.

"Uchiha Naraku one vote."

"Orochimaru one vote."

“Tsunade one vote”

The blackboard was moved behind. As Namikaze Minato read the name, he wrote the name on the blackboard, and then drew a character on the back. Each straight character was counted as five votes.

Namikaze Minato moved faster, grabbed the ballot, and read the name aloud.

As Namikaze Minato chanted, the three senior executives behind could not help but frown slightly.

Namikaze Minato grabbed the glassware. There was no note in it anymore. He nodded and whispered to the counting ninja behind:

"There are no more notes. Count the votes."

Chūnin on the blackboard in the back starts counting.

"Namikaze Minato, sixty-one votes."

"Uchiha Naraku, sixty-three votes."

"Tsunade, seventeen votes."

"Orochimaru, eleven votes."

"Jiraiya, five votes"

"Hatake Sakumo, three votes"

There were also some Jōnin who voted for some other Jōnin in Konoha, but they were all one vote and two votes, so they couldn't make any waves.

"Our usual acts of kindness still make a difference at critical moments."

Naraku couldn't help but smile when he heard that he ranked first in the vote. The voting was hasty, except for the Hokage clan who had discussed it, the votes were concentrated, and Naraku had Uchiha Jōnin's votes, and the rest of the votes were mixed.

Sannin had no ambitions for the position of Hokage. He traveled extensively, studied ninjutsu, and was busy with medical treatment. He didn't even come to the meeting.

Naraku saved many ninjas during the war. When fighting Sand Shinobi, many ninjas were poisoned, as well as Akita Yuya, and many more.

Uchiha Naraku's reputation has been praised and praised by many Konoha Shinobi enthusiasts.

Uchiha Naraku is powerful, has no airs, and never bullies the weak. Instead, he is very helpful and gives guidance to the Konoha Shinobi. At this moment, it has blossomed.

Of course, there are still many middle genin in Konoha, but the middle genin position cannot participate in the Jōnin class meeting. Maybe the Sannin have more fans among the middle genin, but in the Jōnin class, they don't have the support of the Third Generation, but they can't run for Naraku. .

"The top four are Uchiha Naraku, Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and Orochimaru. The four are Hokage candidates. We also need to refer to the Daimyo's suggestions and rulings. We will hand the list to the Daimyo and wait for the final result."

Utatane Koharu said softly, he did not expect Uchiha Naraku to have the support of so many Konoha Jōnin. The Sarutobi family and the Ino-Shika-Chō family together had more than fifty votes.

The total number of Uchiha's votes was less than 40 votes. In the voting of civilians and small and medium-sized ninjas, Uchiha Naraku received a lot of support.

Sannin's Tsunade Hime and Orochimaru are also supported by many civilians, and the Hokage system's yellow flash, which is fully supported, has an average number of votes among civilians.

Namikaze Minato became famous relatively late. Although he was supported by many Konoha Jōnin, his reputation was still far behind the established Konoha heroes.

In terms of strength, Namikaze Minato may not be bad, but reputation is something that cannot be compensated for by other heroes in one or two battles.

Konoha Sannin has experienced so many battlefields. This is because the Third Generation and others support Namikaze Minato. If they support Sannin, Naraku's votes may not necessarily win.

"Naraku-sama is powerful and popular. What else should we consider? We suggest that we just recommend Naraku-sama as the Fourth Hokage!"

One of Uchiha's Jōnin stood up and directly cheered for Naraku.

"Yeah yeah!"

"I support!"

"Naraku-sama is powerful, gentle and reliable. He is a trustworthy ninja!"

"I think the important responsibility of Hokage can be entrusted to Naraku-sama!"

One Uchiha Jōnin stood up and spoke up. What was even more embarrassing for the Hokage clan was that the other Uchiha Jōnin had not spoken yet. Many Jōnin from the civilian clan and small and medium-sized ninja clans also expressed their support.

The three senior executives looked at each other and frowned slightly. They didn't expect Uchiha Naraku to have so many supporters.

Naraku couldn't help but smile when he saw that he was supported by many ninjas on the field, indicating that his image in the minds of the Konoha Shinobi was very reliable.

Naraku understood that voting was a vote and there were other procedures, but now it was time for him to take a strong stand. He stood up and said loudly:

"Thank you very much for your support, Jōnin. If I serve as the Fourth Hokage, I will definitely take on the responsibilities of the Hokage to benefit the villagers of Konoha, generate income, and maintain peace.

All the villagers who protect Konoha live and work in peace and contentment, maintain peace and order in the ninja world, and do their best to prevent war from happening in the ninja world, so that the seedlings of Konoha can thrive and become talents..."

Naraku stood up and talked non-stop, and at the end of the last part "Will of Fire", the audience burst into thunderous applause.

Namikaze Minato, who came in second place in the vote, heard Naraku's words and couldn't help but applaud in support.

The trio on the high platform looked at Uchiha Naraku, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, their brows furrowed deeper, while Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked his pipe expressionlessly.

"Uchiha Naraku is so popular, how does he do it, and why is he different from other Uchiha."

A thought flashed through Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, and he had the impression that Uchiha was simple-minded. With a deeper mind, Sarutobi Hiruzen only remembers Uchiha Fugaku and Naraku, but Fugaku is kind-hearted, peace-loving, and does not fight for power.

This Uchiha Naraku is also peace-loving and kind-hearted, but he particularly likes to fight for power and exploit every opportunity. At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that he had underestimated Uchiha Naraku.

In the Uchiha ethnic group, strong people are often simple-minded and difficult to become the climate. Gentle people tend to have complicated minds and are better suited to overall planning.

This Uchiha Naraku is very kind-hearted, but when he is strong, he never hesitates, which can be seen from the speech just now.

"Ahem"

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed slightly.

Namikaze Minato reacted, lowered his clapping hands, and said in a deep voice:

"Jōnin, please keep quiet and discuss it privately. The opinions of Lord Third Hokage and senior officials have not yet been announced!"

The Jōnin in the field heard the words and looked towards the senior officials, waiting for instructions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that the Jōnin gradually quieted down and said:

“I already know everyone’s opinions, and I will definitely let the person recognized by everyone become Hokage, but the change of Hokage requires the approval of the daimyo.

Uchiha Naraku, Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and Orochimaru are Hokage candidates, waiting for the daimyo's opinion. Before this, before the Hokage was selected and appointed, I, as the ancestor Hokage, was temporarily in charge of Konoha's many affairs. "

Sarutobi Hiruzen is going to take a moment to finalize the agreement with Rock Shinobi, and wait until Shimura Danzō comes back from the northwest affairs before going to the Fire Country capital to ask for orders.

As for the support of the daimyo, it was all Sarutobi Hiruzen's fault. Konoha never looked at the daimyo's face, but at this time, the Third Generation had to use the daimyo's name to slow down.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has already made a calculation in his mind. If it doesn't work out, it would be better to support Sannin than to hand over the power to Uchiha Naraku.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but glance at Hyuga Hiashi.
