God-level choice: Obito, come and inherit the title of Hokage

To be honest.

Hiruzen himself was speechless about these mindless rumors.

Over the years.

His contribution to Konoha can be said to be irreplaceable.

It was under his leadership that Konoha was able to win the Second Ninja World War.

The new generation of strong men that emerged during this period all grew up under his cultivation.

Even Hatake Sakumo can be regarded as half of his student.

Not to mention that Sakumo's current achievements are still a little far from his.

With his own qualifications and connections...even if Sakumo catches up, so what?

He hasn't committed any faults.

Can Sakumo still take credit and force himself to abdicate? Don't

I know Sakumo's character better than you?

Is it necessary to be afraid of him seizing power?

The order to block the information about Sakumo's failed mission was given by me personally! Hey!

……I really don't know what everyone is thinking.

But this is why rumors are disgusting.

Most people don't have the ability to distinguish rumors.

They will just continue to pass on rumors without getting tired of it.

The Sandaime took a deep puff of cigarette and narrowed his eyes slightly.

If these two rumors are linked together, the person behind the scenes wants to kill two birds with one stone.

……Could it be him?

The Sandaime knocked on the table with his cigarette.

An Anbu ninja walked into the room.

He half-knelt on the ground and asked in a low voice:

""Sir, what do you want me to do?"

The Sandaime said with a smile.

"I haven't seen my old friend for a long time. Can you please go to the root?"

""Yes!"

The Anbu nodded slightly, stood up and walked out.

Not long after, a figure in a gray robe and holding a cane walked into the Hokage's office.

His right face was wrapped in bandages, and his left eye was slightly closed, as if he was not interested in anything in the world.

Shimura Danzo!

Hiruzen's good friend when he was young, and now his old friend.

He asked calmly

"Hiruzen, why did you ask me to come here so late at night?"

The Sandaime pointed to the freshly brewed tea on the table and said with a smile

"Shikaku gave me some good tea a few days ago, so I specially asked you to come and taste it today."

Danzo raised his eyebrows slightly, and without saying much, he sat opposite the Sandaime.

He picked up the teacup in his hand and tasted the tea slowly.

After a moment, he put down the teacup in his hand and went straight to the point.

"Hiruzen, if you have something to say, just tell me."

"I haven't finished dealing with the root affairs yet, so I don't have time to sit here with you."

The Sandaime took a sip of tea and said casually

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Have you heard the recent rumors about Sakumo in the village?"

Danzo nodded and said calmly,

"Even you know about it, so I have heard about it too."

The Sandaime snorted coldly, feeling a little unhappy about his friend's secret provocation.

"Since you are well-informed, have you found out who leaked the secrets?"

Danzo shook his head.

"I have asked my men to look around, but so far nothing has been found."

Looking at Hiruzen's somewhat unhappy face.

He seemed to suddenly realize something, and his brows slightly frowned.

"Do you suspect that I leaked the news?"

The Sandaime snorted without commenting, staring at Danzo with deep eyes.

"So, is it you?"

Danzo was startled, and after a moment of silence, he spoke

"This matter has nothing to do with me. It would be of no benefit to me to bring down Sakumo."

The Sandaime nodded ambiguously and said nothing.

Danzo felt a little anxious and pounded the ground heavily with his cane.

"Hiruzen, we have been friends for so many years, and you still don't trust me?"

"If anyone would do this, I have a suspect.

The Sandaime picked up his teacup and waited for Danzo's next words.

"Tell me about it."

Danzo looked directly into the Sandaime's eyes and said in a grim tone.

"Don't forget that there are guys from the Uchiha clan in Sakumo's team."

"If their clan wanted to run for the next Hokage, Sakumo would definitely be their rival."

Uchiha?"

The Sandaime drank a sip of tea calmly, suppressing his surprise.

After a while, he regained his composure and said with a smile.

"There are still things waiting for you to deal with at the Root, so I won't keep you here any longer. Go back first, Danzo."

Danzo nodded.

He looked at the Sandaime deeply, then left without looking back.

After he left, the Sandaime rubbed his brow.

"It's getting more and more confusing, who could it be?……"

……

The next morning, the sun quietly passed through the window and climbed onto the face of the sleeping boy.

The boy turned over with a groan, not wanting to get up at all.

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the house.

"Obito, Xiaolin is here to pick you up for school."

Hmm?"

The boy sat up suddenly from the bed.

After changing his clothes as quickly as possible, he walked out of his room.

Seeing that his grandson finally got up, the grandmother was relieved.

She stuffed a small lunch box for each of Lin and Obito.

"This is the breakfast that grandma just prepared. It’s getting late. You and Xiaolin can eat on the way."

Lin said with a smile.

"Thank you, grandma. Let's go now."

Grandma's eyes were full of smiles, and it was obvious that she liked Lin very much.

""Oh, okay, okay."

Lin held Obito's hand.

"Let's go, Obito-kun."

Happiness came so suddenly that Obito's brain crashed for a moment.

In his past and present lives, this was the first time he held a girl's hand.

Pah!

Holding a little girl's hand

……Something is still not right.

"Let's go, grandma!"

"Okay, you two should drive slowly!"

While walking on the road,

Obito was eating breakfast and looking at Lin beside him with some curiosity.

"Lin-chan, why did you come to pick me up from school today?"

Lin finished the last bite of breakfast, wiped her mouth elegantly, and said

"You've been late lately, and I'm a little worried about you."

Obito smiled and felt warm in his heart.

Apart from his grandmother, Lin should be the person who cares about him the most.

I will definitely protect you in this life, he thought silently.

Lin asked curiously

"By the way, Obito-kun, how come your taijutsu skills improved so quickly?"

After thinking for a while, Obito explained

"Actually, I have been practicing secretly at night recently."

"This is also why I am always tired and sleepy during class in the daytime.

Lin nodded thoughtfully.

"Is that so? But it seems that since the beginning of the school year, Obito-kun has been sleeping in class a lot.……"

Obito coughed twice and changed the subject

"Ahem, this... Lin-chan, why do you look even prettier today?"

Lin's face turned red, as expected, Obito had led her astray.

"Oh, is there?"

Obito nodded seriously.

"Yes, some"

……

It's strange.

On the way to school with Rin, Obito didn't meet a single old lady.

Maybe when the other party arrests people, they only arrest single people... Obito secretly complained.

When the teacher saw Obito and appeared at his seat on time.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

It seems that Obito has really come to his senses.

However, the recent changes in this child seem to be a bit too big.

The teacher immediately fell into deep thought, and then slapped his head in shock.

Masaka...!!!

It must be that his earnest teachings worked!

He can bring such an outrageous child like Obito back on the right track.

In addition to him, Urahara Kisuke, looking at the entire education industry, who else can do it?

I ask, who else?!

Just when the teacher was intoxicated with himself

"Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh~"

""Obito-kun, wake up, class is about to start!"

The teacher's expression froze.

Ah... it seems that I still have a long way to go.
