I'm in Konoha, I want to be Hokage

Chapter 45 Snake Eyes

After returning to Konoha, Jiraiya was still a little uneasy.

Especially when I occasionally passed by Orochimaru's house, I wanted to go in and chat with Orochimaru several times.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also wanted to talk to Jiraiya.

In fact, his original intention was to pay attention to Tsunade. With Tsunade's reputation, popularity, personality and even her profile, it was perfect for her to be the fourth generation.

It's just that Tsunade experienced many changes in succession, and finally left the village before the war was over.

Besides Tsunade, the one he was more optimistic about was Jiraiya.

In his opinion, the most suitable candidate to serve as the fourth generation is Jiraiya.

As for Minato, he is strong enough and has a good personality.

But he is too young, and in his early twenties it is easy for others to criticize him.

Orochimaru……

Orochimaru has become increasingly difficult for him to understand over the years, and it seems that he has become what he is now without even realizing it.

Uchiha Fugaku——

This was not within the scope of his consideration at all. He agreed to the Uchiha clan's participation because he was just following the trend and did not want to cause too much conflict between the Uchiha and the village.

He had plenty of ways to suppress Uchiha again, so he didn't care about it.

Danzo——

This won't work either. If Danzo ascends to power, given his character, the families in the village will fall apart sooner or later.

Therefore, the candidate who would satisfy him the most is still Jiraiya.

It's just that Jiraiya's lazy temper must be changed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly arranged for someone to call back the somewhat lost Jiraiya.

Jiraiya sorted out his messy thoughts. After entering the room, he was about to say hello to the teacher, but turned around and immediately noticed his master's wife, Sarutobi Biwako, who was drinking tea with a dark face.

For some reason, some images that were not suitable for the current scene suddenly popped into Jiraiya's mind.

This made him laugh very awkwardly.

Sarutobi Biwako snorted with a dark face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked strangely: "What's wrong?"

Lake Biwa turned around: "Ask yourself what Jiraiya did!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little confused. Biwako had a gentle temper and rarely got angry.

He looked at Jiraiya in confusion.

Jiraiya pretended to cough: "Teacher, you know, I need to continue to draw materials to maintain creative inspiration——"

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately interrupted with a blush on his face: "I, what do I know! I'm already old, and I've never seen those messy things of yours.

Lake Bipa, you want to see——

Wait, Jiraiya, what do you mean by this?"

He suddenly came back to his senses mid-sentence, how could the fact that you draw the material be related to your teacher's wife's anger?

Jiraiya awkwardly avoided Mr. Sarutobi's scrutinizing gaze.

Sarutobi Hiruzen blushed on the spot, but he was embarrassed before, but now he was angry: "Jiraiya!"

His voice suddenly became much louder, bastard, did you use the material on Lake Biwa?!

Before Mr. Sarutobi could get angry, Jiraiya had to change the subject: "Teacher Sarutobi, I just came back from Mt. Myoboku, and the Great Toad Sage told me a very bad prophecy!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was temporarily attracted by this sentence, and he put down his pipe: "What?"

Jiraiya took a breath: "The Great Toad Sage told me that there will be a disaster in Konoha in the near future!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face suddenly became solemn, and he temporarily forgot about the matter of Lake Biwa, but looked at Jiraiya seriously.

When Jiraiya said this, his face was a little unclear. He hesitated and said: "It told me that many years later, Konoha was engulfed in war and the Hokage died in the battle!

Konoha was destroyed by two people, one of whom had eyes like a poisonous snake."

Bang!

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly, knocking the chair under him to the ground.

Jiraiya immediately comforted him: "Teacher, don't be nervous, I think the Toad Sage is definitely not talking about Orochimaru!

How could Orochimaru take action against Konoha? He is now the fourth generation candidate with the highest number of votes. I believe in Orochimaru."

Sarutobi Hiruzen lifted up the seat, sat down again, and took a puff of cigarette: "No, maybe it's him."

Jiraiya couldn't agree with what Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

What does it mean to say it's him? How could Orochimaru attack Konoha? It's impossible!

Why did Sarutobi-sensei question Orochimaru?

Jiraiya smiled and laughed: "How come, Mr. Sarutobi, Orochimaru is definitely not that kind of person. Don't I know him? He is a guy who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside."

Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on his pipe: "Jiraiya, how long has it been since you last talked to Orochimaru."

Jiraiya fell into silence. Since the Third World War, no, it should be said since the Second World War, Orochimaru has rarely participated in the dinner parties between the teams. Even if they occasionally meet, Orochimaru rarely pays attention to him.

During the Third World War, everyone was extremely busy.

And Orochimaru has always been a reclusive person, so it's been a long time since they had a good chat.

At the same time, as we grow older, we no longer have the time to speak freely as we did in childhood.

But even so, Jiraiya didn't believe that Orochimaru would be the one to destroy Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed: "I arranged for Orochimaru to follow Danzo, maybe it was a wrong decision.

Over the years, the two of them have done a lot of things that cross the line behind my back."

Jiraiya wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it because he had heard about it, but he had never seen it, so he never believed it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed: "That immortal's predictions have never gone wrong, right?"

Jiraiya nodded hard and bitterly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "In this case, no matter whether the person who destroys Konoha in the future is Orochimaru or not, the fourth generation position cannot be given to him.

Jiraiya, you have to fight for it seriously."

Jiraiya immediately shook his head: "Ah, no, no, I can't do it.

Sarutobi-sensei, you know me, I'm used to being free and loose, I can't stay in the same place, I'm not that material at all."

"Don't underestimate yourself."

"It's really not possible. I really can't do it. If you ask me to be Hokage, you might as well kill me."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya who still refused to bow his head, with a troubled look on his face, and suddenly became extremely angry!

Jiraiya said: "Teacher, actually, Minato is more suitable for the position of Hokage than me."

"Minato?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thoughtfully said: "His age is easily underestimated by the daimyo, he is too young.

And Minato-"

The person Minato is closest to is the Ino, Deer and Butterfly generation, and he is also a generation apart from him, so the relationship is not as good as expected.

The most important thing is that Minato's ideas are somewhat in conflict with his. Although the starting point is for Konoha, the specific policies are somewhat different.

He was not worried about Minato's lack of strength, but his lack of experience, and worried that Minato would not be able to grasp many aspects.

Jiraiya said seriously: "Sarutobi-sensei, please believe Minato, he is a more suitable person to sit on the position of Hokage than me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and nodded after being silent for a while: "I understand."
