Originally, in the three-year war, their Konoha suffered heavy losses!

Coupled with the later disaster of Sōsuke. …

Sarutobi Hiruzen's popularity in Konoha has dropped to its lowest point!

Both ninjas and commoners have a lot to say about Konoha under the leadership of Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Although, it's not necessarily all Sarutobi Hiruzen's fault either...

But those ordinary ninjas and villagers, there will care about those!

All they know is that Shen Ye lost a lot of population and resources in this war!

Especially the ninja troops who lost more than 20,000 people in one go...

It even made Konoha's ninjas and villagers excited, every day in the streets and alleys, scolding Sarutobi Hiruzen in a different way!

The biggest headache for Sarutobi Hiruzen is that every day, a large group of family members of the dead ninjas block the door of the Hokage building every day, saying that he should be responsible for the death of their father, husband, and brother...

Sarutobi Hiruzen is so worried about this matter!

Also, you really don't have a good way to deal with it!

Just being the relatives of the martyrs of the other side is enough to make Sarutobi Hiruzen tied up!

What's more, there are too many relatives!

They are relatives of tens of thousands of people!

With such a huge amount, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not even a 9-point move!

Facing such torture, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only resolutely put down the burden...

"Well, if this is the result of your deliberation, Hiruzen, then I won't say more!"

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's aging body recently, Koharu also expressed his understanding directly.

Of course, they are well aware of Sarutobi Hiruzen's current predicament.

"However, the key question now is, who will take over as Fourth Hokage?" Mitokado Homura said with a frown.

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence.

In terms of qualifications, strength, and the relationship with their Hokage lineage...

The first candidates are naturally Orochimaru and Jiraiya...

But Orochimaru, although capable, has a gloomy temperament and is also keen on scientific research.

If he were to be Hokage...

Then the image of their Hokage lineage among the villagers will be greatly reduced. …

And what about Jiraiya…………

Although his temperament is gentle, he treats people politely, his strength is strong, and his resume is rich...  

In theory, it should be a good candidate!

But he had the defeat of Fengchuan Hegu in the third ninja war!

Although they are well aware that this is not Jiraiya's pot...

But those ordinary villagers and ninjas don't think so!

How can a person who has suffered a major defeat in the war become the supreme leader of the village?

Plus Jiraiya's rambunctious nature.....

If he really wants to be Hokage, he probably won't be happy.

But what about other candidates...

"Hmph, Sarutobi, this Fourth Hokage position, besides the old man, who else is qualified to assume this position!"

Suddenly, Shimura Danzō with an excited face, hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in...

"Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Utatane Koharu.

 …” Mitokado Homura.

If Shimura Danzō is a second-hand Hokage

Maybe the next day, Konoha will be in complete civil unrest...

"Danzo, Hokage's successor needs not only a high reputation, but also a strong affinity, so that he can be popular!

As for you, it's better to leave your own job at your own root!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was gloomy, and he said this mercilessly.

He was forced to surrender power

Now that even Shimura Danzō dares to step in, his mood is even worse!

"Yeah, Danzo, everyone has their place! The roots are the place for you!

As for Hokage.......

You are really not suitable!"

Utatane Koharu briefly stated his point of view in a slightly more euphemistic tone.

"Danzo, don't make a fool of yourself! Now the village is in serious internal and external conflicts!

We desperately need a Hokage that can really hold the big picture!

You...better give up on this idea sooner. "

Compared to Utatane Koharu, Homura is much more direct

"You...you?!"

Seeing the three old comrades refuting his opinions almost mercilessly, Shimura Danzō was trembling with anger!

"Humph! Hiruzen, you guys will definitely regret it!"

Shimura Danzō left angrily after leaving a harsh word...

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't take Shimura Danzō's words to heart, and continued the conversation just now......

"You said, how about Minato being the Fourth Hokage?"

After a period of careful consideration, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes light up!

Um?!

After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura subconsciously wanted to object!

Because, Namikaze Minato is too young!

Young people will always give them a sense of insecurity!

But they thought about it and found that there really is no better person than Namikaze Minato!

Whether it is Namikaze Minato's credit and prestige in the Third Ninja World War, or his own personality and affinity, and his identity of the ten Hokage veins...

He is simply perfect for the role of Hokage!

It can be said that Namikaze Minato has almost all the advantages except the disadvantage of age!

"Having Minato take over your position, um... I think it's really good!"

After careful consideration, Utatane Koharu nodded in agreement.

"Um.... Think about it, if it's Minato, it's really a good choice!"

Soon, Mitokado Homura agreed.

"Very well, if you all feel that there is no problem, we will be building a campaign for Shui 033 in the village in the next few weeks! At the same time, we must also prepare for the referendum of Jōnin, and strive to officially confirm Minato Fourth in a month. Hokage's identity!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled.

The reason why he recommends Namikaze Minato is that Namikaze Minato's roots in Konoha are not very deep.

When Namikaze Minato becomes Hokage...  

In many things, he still needs his full support.

At that time, he could still hold the power of the Great Emperor!

If it is replaced by Orochimaru and Jiraiya who have experienced World War II and World War III

The final result is not certain!

After finalizing the candidate for Fourth Hokage

That night, the three of Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned Namikaze Minato alone to talk

This kind of thing, once the three of them make a decision, is basically a done deal!

As for the Jōnin referendum that follows...

This is just a walk through... . . .

When Namikaze Minato got home, he was still dizzy...

He never imagined it!

Suddenly, he was the Fourth Hokage booked in the village!

And, listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, the official inauguration ceremony will be held next month at the most!

Until now, Namikaze Minato didn't feel like a dream!

Of course, compared to the surprise of taking over as Hokage, Namikaze Minato finally got some of the information he wanted before... . . .
