In the residence of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the atmosphere in the usually calm living room was solemn. No one among the top management of Konoha gathered here wanted to be the first to speak.

Because there is still one person who has not come.

Originally, Koharu and Mito Monobu had no intention of letting that person come over when they moved to bed.

Although the two of them often help that person and admit that the guy is better than the two of them, this does not prevent them from thinking that that person can become Hokage.

The reason is simple. Before this chaos, Shimura Danzo was not a responsible ninja on the surface.

Ninjas without responsibility are destined to not be recognized by the lower-level ninjas.

Without the recognition of lower-level ninjas, it is impossible to become Hokage through jounin.

But now they have to wait for Danzo to come over.

The reason is also very simple, that is, in this incident, Shimura Danzo first solved the biggest threat to Konoha-Senju Hashirama, allowing the ninja god who founded Konoha to return to the grave.

middle.

Next, Danzo came up with a special medicine, which relieved the sequelae of the birth of the Flower and Tree World and restored those ninjas who fell asleep due to pollen to normal.

These are all achievements, and they are achievements that can only be attributed to Danzo Shimura.

After all, it is impossible for a basic ninja to compete with Danzo.

Da da da…

The sound of clogs hitting the floor alternated with the sound of the end of a cane hitting the floor.

Danzo is here.

As soon as this slightly bent careerist arrived, all eyes were focused on him.

"snort……"

His self-restraint skills were very good. In this situation that benefited him greatly, he did not laugh, he just snorted softly, and then said dryly: "Sorry, I went to hold a funeral for my subordinates. I missed it by accident."

It’s time.”

His lies were so accurate that others present could find no reason to criticize him.

The Roots are indeed a private armed force controlled by Danzo Shimura alone, but who can say that the ninjas of the Roots are not the ninjas of Konoha?

Since they died fighting for the village, it is appropriate to hold an internal funeral.

"Now that you're here, sit down quickly. We have to hold a funeral for Sarutobi later. Time is very tight." Mito Kabuto said expressionlessly.

Normally, Shimura Danzo would probably be in the mood to have a big fight with the other party, but today he was not in that mood.

[Time is not waiting for me. Some things are better to be determined by taking advantage of this opportunity. Only by achieving that goal can I compete with Sarutobi. 】

"I will definitely do better than you, and then I can prove that the teacher's decision that day was wrong."

He walked to the seat specially prepared for him while recalling the scene that made him regret his whole life.

Until his voice that only he could hear dissipated, he squinted his eyes and looked at Jiraiya, who was sitting opposite him, and said loudly: "Before the funeral, let's elect the Hokage. The current situation in Konoha,

Without the Hokage, there would be no way to deal with the current situation."

The Hokage is the head of the village and the leader of Konoha.

Without this leader, Konoha's various departments would not be able to function normally, and the lower-level ninjas would also fall into a state of uneasiness.

Therefore, the election of the fifth Hokage at this time has the effect of stabilizing people's hearts.

Shimura Danzo's eagerness made Jiraiya dissatisfied. The usually positive and optimistic white-haired ninja opened his eyes wide, looked at Shimura Danzo and said word by word: "Then I recommend Tsunade. I don't think so.

There is no one more suitable to be Hokage at this time than her."

"Tsunade is the granddaughter of the First Generation and the teachers of three seniors. She is also a medical ninja with superb medical skills. I think that if she serves as Hokage, she should be able to appease people's hearts."

As soon as Jiraiya finished stating his opinion, Koharu joined him. She squinted her eyes and said, "I think it's good. There are many wounded people in the village now, and Tsunade's medical skills are in great need. Men Yan, what do you think?

?”

Mito Kaden who was asked took a sip of tea, and then said: "I think Jiraiya is very suitable to be Hokage. After all, you are in the village now, and you can also speak at the funeral later, so I took over the teacher."

Isn’t his mantle very good? I think back then, Sarutobi also took over the inheritance from Tobirama-sensei at a moment of crisis.”

The two of them can wait for Danzo Shimura to come over, but they will not recognize Danzo.

There is a difference between what must be done and what will be done.

Danzo Shimura's face was as cold as ice. Only then did he realize that his two "partners" were not interested in him.

The original ambition to be the Hokage turned into something visible but unattainable at this moment.

However, he quickly figured out the thoughts of the two people. After Jiraiya said that his character was not suitable for being Hokage and once again mentioned some of Tsunade's advantages, Shimura Danzo said: "But Tsunade has left the village for ten years."

It has been several years, apart from medical ninjutsu, can she really be of any help to the village now?"

"And she left without saying goodbye. Is this kind of person who abandons the village because of temporary pain really qualified to become Hokage?! Does she really have the determination to protect the Ninja Village?!"

"What if she runs away again when encountering difficulties? Have you guys considered it?"

Shimura Danzo stood up as he spoke, his exposed eyes flashing with tears, as if he was shedding tears for Konoha's dangerous future.

"I believe……"

"Jiraiya!!"

Before the word "Tsunade" could come out of Jiraiya's mouth, Danzo jumped in front of him and interrupted the former with rude words.

Shimura Danzo turned around twice, and finally looked out of the hall and said: "You used to trust Orochimaru, but Orochimaru killed Sarutobi and killed hundreds of ninjas in Konoha, and the rest of the injured were difficult to survive.

count."

"So trust is not one-sided and cannot be guaranteed by just patting one's chest and opening one's mouth."

"What do you promise now?"

He hit the wooden floor with his crutch several times, adjusted his clothes when Jiraiya was speechless, and then said lightly: "Let's go, the funeral time is coming soon, you don't want to be late, right?"

Bar?"

"Also, I will be the one to host the funeral this time. What do you think?"

He quietly turned his head and stared closely at his two remaining "companions".

Mito Kaden and Koharu looked at each other, and then the former, who had a stronger opinion, gave the answer.

"No problem, this kind of thing is the responsibility of the three of us. I just hope you won't lose your composure like you just did."

"The Kazekage is here too." He added at the end.

"I remember."

Shimura Danzo adjusted his expression, and then walked towards the cemetery on crutches.
