Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

Chapter 83 - 82. The Fifth Hokage.

"You!"

With the ridicule from the Fourth Raikage, Shimura Danzō's face was getting darker and darker.

He didn't expect that the Fourth Raikage, Ay, would say such things at this time!

Wasn't he afraid that if he became the Fifth Hokage and led Konoha, it would further threaten the interests of Kumogakure?

'Humph!'

Shimura Danzō's one-eye narrowed, coldly looking at the Fourth Raikage.

The Fourth Raikage, Ay wasn't afraid of Danzō's gaze at all and even directly ignored Danzō.

He directed his gaze at Jiraiya and Senju Tsunade, which almost drove Danzō crazy.

"I suggest that the five shinobi villages form a shinobi alliance in advance to catch Akatsuki off guard."

"Uzumaki Naruto and two-tailed beasts must be taken back, especially Uzumaki Naruto. If they can't be taken back, then just kill him!"

The Fourth Raikage's murderous words made Jiraiya's face change. He mumbled something a few times but finally didn't say a word.

He knew that at this moment, the proposal from the Fourth Raikage was the correct decision.

Uzumaki Nagato's strength was already excessive, especially after being enhanced again by the exam space.

Right now, Jiraiya didn't know whether Uzumaki Naruto, who had practiced senjutsu, would still be a match for him.

Now, he took Uzumaki Naruto and took the Fifth Kazekage. If they gave Nagato some time to train them both, Akatsuki would add two more Kage-level powerhouses to their members.

Even with Naruto's talent...

'No, I have to take Naruto back as soon as possible!'

"Kirigakure is willing to form an Allied Shinobi Force."

The light of wisdom flashed in Terumī Mei's eyes. Kirigakure was weak right now and unable to compete with Akatsuki.

"My Sunagakure, agree to form an Allied Shinobi Force."

There was also Chiyo from Sunagakure. She just waved her hand, and Baki came forward to put away Rasa's body.

Traces of the battle at the scene show that Rasa and Orochimaru attacked Sarutobi Hiruzen, then Orochimaru turned against him and killed Rasa, and finally killed Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But now Sarutobi Hiruzen was dead, and Orochimaru wasn't here, so their Sunagakure couldn't reject this blame.

Ōnoki floated in mid-air, at the same height as the crowd. He narrowed his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Iwagakure also agrees."

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Konohagakure.

"Konoha..."

No sooner had Tsunade gotten halfway through her sentence, Danzō interrupted with a sneer:

"You are a shinobi who has just returned to the village. What qualifications do you have to represent Konoha?"

Danzō's icy gaze swept over the faces of each of Konoha's top management. The threats in his words weren't concealed at all.

"Sarutobi is dead. As the leader of Konoha's Root, I can certainly lead everyone and continue Konohagakure's glory!"

"Now, does anyone disagree with my election as the Fifth Hokage?"

Danzō's gaze swept again to see no one stepping forward to protest. He smiled in satisfaction.

"It seems that no one disagrees. So, from today, I am ..."

Hyūga, Ino, Shika, Chō, Aburame, and other shinobi clan members looked at their patriarchs, only to find that their clan patriarchs were all just standing quietly in place.

As if nothing had happened and they were waiting for something.

"I disagree!"

A moderate voice rang out, making Danzō's face suddenly gloomy. He turned his head to look, and his pupils fiercely contracted.

The speaker turned out to be: Sarutobi Asuma!

'Why is he here?'

'Isn't he protecting the Daimyō of the Land of Fire?'

'Was it Sarutobi Hiruzen's order?'

Shimura Danzō was thinking about the reason why Sarutobi Asuma appeared here and the deep meaning of why Sarutobi Hiruzen did so, when he heard Sarutobi Asuma's voice coldly say:

"Father just died, and here you are taking the Hokage seat. You tell me, are you really looking out for the village?"

"Konoha can't live without a Hokage for a day. Especially now, when the Shinobi Allied Forces are to be formed ahead of schedule. I can't let other shinobi villages see Konoha as a joke."

"Shut up!"

Hearing that Shimura Danzō was still arguing, Sarutobi Asuma instantly became furious.

Pointing at Danzō with one hand, his finger almost poked Shimura Danzō in the face.

"You! Shimura Danzō! Are selfish and stupid to the core!"

Sarutobi Asuma laughed in anger:

"My father's body is right there; the body of the Third Hokage is right there! In front of him, in front of other Kages, you insist on taking the Fifth Hokage seat. Now you're telling me you're doing it for Konoha?!"

"Are you worthy? You don't deserve it! Look at those eyes on your right hand and the Wood Release cells in your body. You're just fooling yourself!"

"Not to mention that I disagree, the Sarutobi clan disagrees, and the Hyūga clan! They will also disapprove of you becoming Hokage!"

"They're also afraid that one day you'll wipe out the Hyūga clan of Konoha and replace your left arm with an arm full of Byakugan!"

"You still want to be Hokage?"

"Ptui!"

Sarutobi Asuma directly spat.

He expressionlessly pulled the Root member in front of himself, then pushed the Root member out of the way.

"Sarutobi Asuma, for the sake of the dead Hiruzen, I advise you to understand what's good for you."

"What's good for me? I don't know what's good for me?"

Sarutobi Asuma suddenly turned his head sideways and gave an apologetic look to Kurenai, who wasn't too far away.

He knew what he would face when he came forward, but at the moment, the anger in his heart was beyond words.

As soon as his father died, Shimura Danzō couldn't wait to jump out and become the Fifth Hokage.

What's the difference between this and dancing on his father's grave?

'And you want to be Hokage?'

'Fifth Hokage my ass!'

Sarutobi Asuma coldly glanced at Shimura Danzō, and directly said:

"I! Sarutobi Asuma! As a Jōnin of Konohagakure, the Guardian of the Land of Fire, the Twelve Guardian Ninja, the new Patriarch of the Sarutobi Clan, and the son of the Third Hokage; I nominate Senju Tsunade-sama as the Fifth Hokage!"

"You! You want to die!"

Shimura Danzō was instantly enraged. He stared at Sarutobi Asuma, who was sneering at him. He just wanted to kill him directly!

"Tsunade-sama, please take the Fifth Hokage position!"

Whoosh!

All of Konoha's Anbu neatly bent down. Then they quickly got up and stood behind Senju Tsunade one after another, expressing their thoughts with their actions.

"You ... you!"

Shimura Danzō's eyes were burning. At this moment, he couldn't wait to kill all the people here!

He was the leader of Root. He worked hard for Konoha! He bled for Konoha!

'Why, why can't I be the Fifth?!'

"Damn it!"

Hyūga Hiashi's eyes swept through the scene. His eyes wavered a few times, and then his body bent slightly.

"Tsunade-sama, please take the Fifth Hokage position!"

Meanwhile, all of Konoha's clans quickly weighed everything in their hearts.

If Shimura Danzō became Hokage, then in less than three years, all the power of the families would be controlled and hollowed out by him.

If they chose Senju Tsunade, this possibility wouldn't exist at all.

Moreover, the Senju clan had disappeared...

So...
