Konoha Ninja Wants an Ordinary Life

Funerals in Konoha used to be very simple.

The general process is to ring the bell, lower the coffin, lay flowers and observe a moment of silence.

But today is different, because the third Hokage is dead.

Died together with his disciple, Konoha's famous rebellious ninja Orochimaru.

This old man who had worked for Konoha all his life made his final contribution to Konoha at the last moment of his life.

Therefore, for him and the ninjas who sacrificed their lives in this operation.

Konoha's second memorial service has begun.

At this time, most of Konoha's ninjas came to Konoha's cemetery and stood neatly at the memorial venue.

And at the edge of the neat square formation, a group of people stood out.

Because the forehead protectors these people wear on their heads are Suna Ninja forehead protectors.

Among the small team of Suna ninja, the Fourth Kazekage stood at the front of the team wearing Kazekage's costume. On his left were his three children - Kankuro, Temari and Gaara, and on his right

Standing were his beloved general Maki and the important Uchiha Sasuke.

Uchiha Sasuke was in a very bad mood at the moment because Wang Yue Jing had deceived him.

When he followed the other party's words and headed north excitedly, he met his former classmate Shino Aburame, the only one who had escaped pollen.

At that time, the other party was following the other party's father to track down the missing Suna ninja.

What's even more strange is that if he hadn't appeared, the father and son would have returned in vain.

It's just that he couldn't turn back to look for the trouble he had faced at Moon View, because when the two men found him, the signal bomb exploded in the sky.

He had already lost the chance to turn around in his astonishment.

He gritted his teeth and looked at the photo of the Third Hokage placed not far away with gloomy eyes, constantly cursing the view of the moon that deceived his young heart.

Normally, once someone sees his current expression, he will inevitably be questioned.

But now, I no longer know how to ask.

One is because his mentor, Jōnin Arashi, has been placed on the missing persons list;

The second reason is because the other people's eyes are focused on the right side. Not far away, four people are slowly walking towards this side.

It was Danzo Shimura, Koharu Koharu, Mito Kaden and Jiraiya.

When these four people appeared in the field of vision, Ma Ji immediately turned his head to look at the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, and whispered in a low voice: "Danzo is walking at the front."

There was a lot of fear in the voice of this sand ninja jounin.

Under the dazzling light of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo Shimura, who was hiding in the darkness, was indeed not well-known in Konoha, but outside, Danzo, who controlled the roots, caused countless troubles for other ninja villages.

, very gloriously received the "good name" of Shinobi's Darkness.

Judging from the current situation, Danzo Shimura seems to be in a leadership position.

This is not good news.

Luo Sha said calmly: "This does not mean that he can become Hokage, continue reading."

Becoming Hokage is an easy thing to say - the first step is to get the recognition of the daimyo; the second step is to pass the jounin vote.

But it is an extremely difficult thing to do.

Because it is very difficult to gain the approval of a Jonin.

You must know that in Konoha, although jounin from various families do not do much on weekdays, their combined number exceeds half of the jonin in Konoha.

In this world, it is common sense that family ninjas can grow up much more easily than ordinary people.

After all, there is a huge difference in difficulty between someone providing a growth path and finding it yourself.

Da da da da——

Under the sound of footsteps, Shimura Danzo came to the photo of Sarutobi Hiruzen under the gaze of everyone, and then began the speech he had been preparing for a long time.

On this important occasion today, he must speak out about his contribution to Konoha.

Only in this way can he gain more support from the people.

Only in this way could he possibly compete with Hiruzen Sarutobi.

[Just wait, Sarutobi, I will definitely surpass you and become a greater Hokage.]

When he thought of this, Shimura Danzo couldn't help but speak louder.

But beneath his voice, several people were not interested in listening.

One of them is Nara Shikaku. As the decision-maker of the three Ino, Shika and Butterfly families, he is very aware of Shimura Danzo's character. Once the latter becomes Hokage, they will face tremendous pressure.

Because among the many families in Konoha, the pig-deer butterfly with the same spirit is the best prop to establish prestige.

The Konoha think-tank lowered his head, hiding behind the tall Akimichi Choza and talking softly to Yamanaka Haiichi, who had only one arm left.

There was only one topic of conversation, and that was Naruto.

The two people who were talking to themselves didn't notice that someone was watching them.

"What are you looking at? Kakashi." Asuma Sarutobi held the white chrysanthemum that he had to prepare in one hand and pressed Konohamaru Sarutobi who was crying with the other, his eyebrows and eyes were always filled with sadness.

Since then, he has also lost his parents.

Kakashi looked away from Nara Shikaku upon hearing this, looked down at Uzumaki Naruto who was holding back tears, and then replied softly: "I didn't see anything, I just care about something."

He is now very concerned about who the next Hokage will be, because the matter involves Uzumaki Naruto around him, and he cannot help but be cautious.

If this only bloodline is cut off, he really won't have any face to go down there.

At the same time, there is no need to tell Asuma Sarutobi about this matter. Although the other person is the son of the Hokage, the choice he made when he was young destined him to be incompatible with the Hokage.

Konoha doesn't need a Hokage who has served as a guard for the daimyo.

That's not in Konoha's interests.

Sarutobi Asuma saw that Hatake Kakashi refused to say anything, so he didn't continue to ask.

In fact, he could already guess a lot in his mind, but everyone has their own privacy, even if they are friends, some things should be done in moderation.

Otherwise, we won't even be able to be friends.

He grinded his teeth and suppressed his craving for cigarettes before saying, "Jiraiya-sama's face doesn't look good, maybe something happened?"

"Maybe it has something to do with Tsunade-sama," Hatake Kakashi speculated. As a man who visits the Hokage's office every day, even if he does nothing, many rumors will reach his ears.

Ninjas indeed regard confidentiality as their top priority, but not many people can regard it as a creed that needs to be adhered to throughout their lives.

After all, keeping secrets means having to keep tightening a certain string, and not many people can keep tightening it.

It's normal to have both tightness and looseness.

"Tsunade-sama? It's a good feeling."

Sarutobi Asuma sighed, and a letter on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk suddenly flashed through his mind. After trying hard to recall the words on the envelope, he fell silent.

Some things are really troublesome.
