Kapitel 879: Chapter – 872 The Results

Once the Uchiha and Hyuga clans had completed their voting, the atmosphere gradually returned to normal.

Jonins from other major clans, as well as those from civilian backgrounds, stepped forward one by one to cast their votes. Despite the ongoing tension and nerve-wracking nature of the situation, there was a sense of order, and the voting process proceeded smoothly.

Notably, even the Jonins who were currently on duty or away from Konoha due to mission assignments had made arrangements to ensure their votes were accounted for. They had entrusted their votes to trusted individuals acting as proxies.

As a result, almost all of the Konoha Jonin, regardless of their circumstances, were able to participate in the crucial Vote of Confidence.

On the rooftop of the Hokage Building,

Fugaku's gaze fixed upon the ballot box, his eyes shimmering with anticipation. A long-desired smile gradually spread across his face. His heart raced with excitement as the final vote was dropped into the box.

Accustomed to suppressing his emotions, Fugaku couldn't contain his elation. The Sharingan in his eyes instinctively activated; a visible sign of his intense emotions. His body trembled slightly, his breath growing rough with the surge of adrenaline coursing through his veins.

Throughout the voting process, Fugaku had meticulously observed every detail, silently keeping track of the votes that favored his candidacy. By combining the votes of the Uchiha clan with the support he had garnered from other shinobi clans through discreet hints, he was confident that he held a significant lead over Hyuga Kuroto, surpassing him by at least twenty votes.

Even if there were slight errors during the voting and counting processes, Fugaku remained assured of his victory. The margin of error was substantial, providing him with a sense of certainty in his imminent triumph and Hyuga Kuroto's defeat.

As the voting period came to a close, a hushed silence fell over the once bustling square. All eyes were fixed upon the ballot box, be it the eager villagers, the vigilant Konoha ninjas maintaining order, or the shadowy figures of the Anbu operatives quietly patrolling the area. The anticipation was palpable as everyone awaited the announcement of the vote's outcome.

Sandaime, addressing both Kuroto and Fugaku, spoke solemnly, "The voting has concluded, and now it is time to begin the vote-counting process."

"Okay." Kuroto, nodded in acknowledgment, expressing his readiness for this crucial stage.

Fugaku, on the other hand, remained silent but nodded humbly, his mind already occupied with the decisions he would need to make once he assumed the mantle of Konoha's Hokage.

With the consent of the two candidates, several staff members approached the ballot box, prepared to meticulously examine and tally the votes, determining the ultimate victor of this closely watched election.

On the viewing platform at the opposite end,

Godaime Kazekage Pakura turned to the other Kage assembled alongside her, posing a question that had been on her mind, "Who do you think will emerge victorious, Uchiha Fugaku or Hyuga Kuroto?"

Pakura, being a covert member of Amatsukami, possessed a certain level of insight into the internal dynamics of Konoha. However, her query was fuelled by curiosity rather than any inside knowledge. She simply wished to gauge the opinions of her fellow Kage.

Responding with a chuckle, Sandaime Tsuchikage remarked, "Hehe, isn't it evident?" Having spent the past few months in Konoha, Onoki had become well-acquainted with the political landscape of the village. From the moment Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to cancel the fight between Hyuga Kuroto and Uchiha Fugaku upon learning that Fugaku too possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, and instead opted for the Vote of Confidence, Onoki had discerned the likely outcome of the Vote of Confidence.

The conversation shifted as Yondaime Raikage interjected, "Tsuchikage, are you saying Uchiha Fugaku will lose?" questioning Tsuchikage Onoki's insinuation about Uchiha Fugaku's potential loss.

"I said no such thing." Onoki, maintaining a sly smile, evaded a direct response.

Ay nodded as he mused to himself, expressing his hope for Uchiha Fugaku's victory, "I hope Uchiha Fugaku can win."

The Raikage's reasoning was straightforward: in order for the five Kages to effectively combat the Akatsuki Organization, none of them could afford to be weak. While acknowledging Hyuga Kuroto's impressive abilities, especially his wit in defeating Uchiha Shisui, the Raikage remained uncertain whether such tactics would suffice against the formidable opponents from the Akatsuki.

His experiences had taught him that, in the face of absolute strength, meticulous planning could easily crumble. In comparison, Uchiha Fugaku's strength, bolstered by the possession of the Mangekyou Sharingan, appeared more reliable for facing the Akatsuki.

Deep in thought, Yagura contemplated the potential consequences of Uchiha Fugaku's defeat. The massive number of Uchiha Jonin who had just voted showcased the clan's power, bolstered by three pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan. Their collective strength even surpassed that of some Shinobi villages.

"If the Uchiha clan were to lose the election, unrest and upheaval seemed inevitable. Under normal circumstances, Sandaime would be unwilling to take such a risk." However, Yagura speculated on whether Sandaime, unaware of Kuroto's true strength, would choose to compromise and relinquish the position of Godaime Hokage to the Uchiha clan.

As the other Kage listened to Yagura's whisper, each displayed a distinct expression. Onoki scoffed, being the one most acquainted with Hiruzen's shrewd nature, he doubted that the former Hokage would easily give up. Ay maintained a pensive countenance, nodding in agreement. The Kazekage, Pakura, chose to remain silent, wearing a subtle smile, refraining from offering her own thoughts on the matter.

On the rooftop of the nearby building,

Naruto excitedly pointed towards the Hokage Building, "Look, they are going to open the ballot box!" drawing attention to the imminent opening of the ballot box.

Sasuke and Neji, activating their respective dojutsu—the Sharingan and the Byakugan—focused their intense gaze on the box.

'Tou-san will soon become Hokage!' The anticipation and longing on Sasuke's nervous face were evident as he expressed his belief that his father, Fugaku, would soon ascend to the position of Hokage. For Sasuke, this moment held great significance, as his father's victory would not only fulfill his personal desires but also solidify the Uchiha clan's standing in Konoha.

'The one who becomes the Godaime Hokage will be Kuroto-Sensei!' Neji, on the other hand, possessed unwavering confidence in Kuroto. He firmly believed that the one who would emerge as the Godaime Hokage would be Kuroto.

Amidst the palpable anticipation, the diligent efforts of the staff culminated in the swift completion of the ticket-counting process. The meticulous workers wasted no time and promptly ascended to the rooftop of the Hokage Building, presenting the compiled voting results to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen received the crucial document with a mixture of curiosity and solemnity. The weight of this responsibility, knowing that the fate of Konohagakure hung in the balance, was evident in his expression. With measured composure, he carefully perused the voting results, his eyes scanning the figures that would determine the course of the village's leadership.

In this pivotal moment, the atmosphere surrounding the rooftop became charged with suspense. All eyes were fixed on Hiruzen, eagerly awaiting the announcement that would reveal the chosen as the next Hokage.

After a fleeting moment of anticipation, Sandaime wore a gentle smile, his eyes reflecting both pride and satisfaction. With a voice that resonated throughout the rooftop, he declared, "The results of the vote of confidence have been tallied!"

The weight of those words seemed to hang in the air, and Fugaku's posture stiffened as he prepared to step forward, anticipating his own name to be called. His mind was already crafting the words he would speak upon assuming the revered mantle of Godaime Hokage.

Yui, standing by Kuroto's side, clutched his sleeve tightly, her anxiety manifesting as a thin sheen of sweat on her forehead. Every second felt like an eternity as she anxiously awaited the outcome.

Unlike Yui, Kuroto exuded a confident smile as he observed the scene unfolding around him. In his eyes, the outcome of the election had already been determined long before the voting process commenced. To him, the entire electoral procedure is a mere formality, devoid of any real suspense or concern.

Elder Koharu, Jiraiya, Tsunade-hime, along with other members of the Konoha Council focused their gaze upon Hiruzen, their collective breaths held in anticipation of the impending announcement.

Sensing the collective anticipation, Sandaime, in his role as the voice of the village, did not prolong the suspense. After inhaling deeply, he proclaimed to the assembled crowd, "The victor of this vote of confidence is none other than Hyuga Kuroto!"

In an instant, jubilation erupted among the ranks of the civilian background ninjas and the Hyuga clan members alike. The air was filled with resounding cheers and thunderous applause, their excitement permeating the atmosphere as they celebrated the triumph of their chosen candidate.

Amidst the jubilant uproar that enveloped the scene, Uchiha Fugaku's initial elation transformed into a stunned silence, his face etched with disbelief. His mind seemed to struggle to comprehend the unexpected turn of events.

Without warning, a surge of fury overcame Fugaku, his voice cutting through the celebratory atmosphere, "I demand a recount of the ballots!"

His outburst abruptly halted the cheers, causing all eyes to shift towards him, a mixture of surprise and curiosity on the faces of those present. Hiruzen with a creased brow, confronted Fugaku, his tone tinged with a hint of concern, "Fugaku, do you doubt the integrity of our village?"

Before Fugaku could respond, Mikoto reached out and clutched his sleeve, her touch a plea for restraint. Fugaku's seething anger was momentarily quelled as he locked eyes with Hiruzen, silently conveying his meaning.

Recognizing Fugaku's meaning, Hiruzen deliberated for a brief moment, then nodded, "Very well, if you have doubts, you may conduct a personal recount of the votes."

An eerie hush enveloped the rooftop as Fugaku proceeded towards the ballot box, the weight of the onlookers' silent gaze intensifying the gravity of the moment. No one dared to utter a word as they anxiously awaited the outcome.

As Fugaku closed the distance to the ballot box, his inner voice echoed with determination, "No! This cannot be. The votes were in my favor. They must have manipulated the count... There is no way I could have lost! It's inconceivable!"

Kapitel 880: Chapter – 873 Godaime Hokage: Hyuga Kuroto!

The radiant smile that adorned Yui's face tensed, overshadowed by Fugaku's doubts regarding the vote's outcome.

For Yui, the prospect of Kuroto ascending to the position of Godaime Hokage was nothing short of a dream—exquisite and fantastical. Despite the sweetness of this dream, she couldn't help but feel an undercurrent of unease, particularly now with Fugaku approaching the ballot box. Her nerves were palpable as she tightly gripped Kuroto's cuffs, seeking solace in the touch of Kuroto's hand. In a soothing voice, he reassured her, "Don't worry." Yui nodded, though her anxious gaze remained fixated on the ballot box.

As Fugaku steadily approached the ballot box, a semblance of calm washed over him. He had come to realize that there couldn't possibly be any discrepancies in the vote of confidence results. Exposing any foul play would be far too easy, especially considering the Uchiha members he had discreetly arranged to be part of the staff responsible for ballot inspection. However, a troubling question lingered—why had he, the expected victor, suffered a defeat?

Doubt seeped into Fugaku's mind as he arrived at the ballot box. He contemplated whether one of the shinobi clan who had pledged their support had betrayed him. Seeking answers, he turned to the Uchiha individuals he had positioned within the ticket-checking team. Their somber expressions and swift head-shaking only deepened his frustration.

Ignoring them, Fugaku meticulously examined each vote cast by the Jonin, his countenance composed, albeit seething with growing anger. Unbeknownst to him, his fury turned his Sharingan, into the Mangekyou Sharingan, its crimson radiance mirroring his inner turmoil.

'These treacherous people!' Fugaku's inner voice thundered, his anger transmuting into an overwhelming aura of malevolence. The palpable killing intent emanating from him permeated the air, causing even the nearby Anbu operatives to brace themselves and the Uchiha clansmen involved in the vote-counting process to instinctively recoil in fear. In their eyes, the chakra coursing through Fugaku had turned as icy as the depths of winter, sending shivers down their spines.

Boom!

In a fit of rage, Fugaku forcefully overturned the long table on which the tickets were arranged, his heavy breaths punctuating the charged atmosphere. With seething eyes, he glared at the distant clan patriarchs who had insinuated their allegiance to him, now avoiding his piercing gaze.

Gritting his teeth, Fugaku's voice dripped with icy contempt as he coldly shouted, "You traitors! I will ensure you understand the consequences of deceiving the Uchiha Clan!"

The result was a stark departure from his expectations. It wasn't a marginal difference of one or two votes, nor even a moderate gap of ten or twenty. Instead, it amounted to several dozen votes, revealing a chilling reality: hardly anyone, aside from the Uchiha Clansmen themselves, had cast their vote in his favor. Such a scenario could only arise from one situation—each and every individual who had privately pledged their support had treacherously betrayed him!

Fugaku, ensnared in a web of deception, not only felt defeated but also deeply humiliated. As someone accustomed to restraining his emotions, he could no longer contain his anger. The weight of being manipulated fuelled the flames of his fury, shattering his emotional restraint.

On the rooftop of the Hokage Building

Realization dawned upon Kuroto as he observed the seething Fugaku below, brimming with murderous intent. He cast a knowing glance at the Sandaime-sama standing beside him and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "It appears that you went a step too far, Sandaime-sama."

Undoubtedly, Hiruzen employed subtle tactics during the vote canvassing process to ensure stability within the Uchiha clan and buy time to handle potential rebellions. These methods clouded Uchiha's judgment and led Fugaku to believe that victory in the vote of confidence was assured.

However, the issue lay in Sandaime's actions, for he had gone beyond merely securing Kuroto's win. Instead, he orchestrated a resounding defeat for the Uchiha Clan, perhaps to push them to relinquish any aspirations for the position of Konoha's Godaime Hokage.

This extreme outcome could only be explained by the village's employment of certain means, such as ambiguous remarks made by certain people to Fugaku, leading him to believe he was being supported and encouraging him to invest more effort into his campaign.

In pursuit of his own agenda, Sandaime had gone to great lengths to humiliate Fugaku, "A territory he shouldn't have stepped into, in my personal opinion," muttered Kuroto, shaking his head at the foolishness of it all.

It was a foolish move to toy with the pride of the Uchiha clan and manipulate them like puppets, even for someone as indecisive as Fugaku. Such treatment would undoubtedly push him toward rebellion.

Indeed, this crushing defeat had shattered all hopes of the Uchiha Clan to rightfully claim the position of Godaime Hokage. In doing so, the village willingly abandoned negotiations and passively acknowledged the Uchiha's inclination to rebel, thus initiating pre-emptive measures and positioning the Uchiha as their target. The village's actions had relinquished any opportunity for a peaceful resolution.

In Kuroto's perspective, Sandaime-sama's judgment was clouded by his deep-seated distrust of the Uchiha clan, preventing him from finding a better solution to the problem at hand. Kuroto believed that when Fugaku proposed restarting the campaign for the Godaime Hokage, the village should have set aside its prejudices and supported Shisui as the ideal candidate. Despite not being formally trained by the Hokage Faction, Shisui was technically a member and had unquestionable loyalty to their cause. Furthermore, he was widely regarded as the strongest combatant among the five great nations, making him an excellent choice.

However, the main hurdle in considering Shisui is Kotoamatsukami, an incredibly powerful Genjutsu capable of subtly manipulating the will of others without their awareness. This raised concerns about the need for heightened caution around Shisui if he were to become Hokage. Despite these concerns, Kuroto firmly believed that if Shisui assumed the Hokage mantle, there would be no need to worry about Kotoamatsukami being misused. Additionally, it would have prevented the situation from escalating to its current extent, alleviating the strain placed upon the Uchiha Clan.

Nevertheless, the deeply ingrained prejudices and biases that had developed over the course of a decade were not easily dispelled. It was precisely due to these lingering prejudices that the village found itself in its present predicament, and Sandaime missed the opportunity to choose a candidate like Shisui who could have been accepted by both sides as the Godaime Hokage.

As the Uchiha clansman standing by the ballot box approached Fugaku, he inquired, "Patriarch-sama, what should we do now?" Fugaku, fully aware of being ensnared in a meticulously crafted conspiracy, merely turned his head to cast a frigid glance at the occupants of the Hokage Building. With an ice-cold tone, he curtly replied, "Let's go!" Leading his clan members, Fugaku departed with an air of authority, without bothering to exchange pleasantries.

Observing Fugaku's departure, Kuroto couldn't help but feel a sense of disbelief. "The problem lies not only with Sandaime-sama but also with the Uchiha Patriarch, who failed to discern such a straightforward scheme. He truly isn't suited for this role," Kuroto lamented. He couldn't comprehend why Fugaku believed that merely revealing his Mangekyou Sharingan in public and earning admiration by defeating Kakashi would automatically guarantee acceptance and support from members of all clans for his bid as the next Hokage.

Shaking his head in disappointment, Kuroto recognized the grave consequences of such misjudgment for someone aspiring to assume the momentous responsibility of Hokage. "Such a miscalculation can prove fatal," he thought to himself.

As Fugaku and the rest of the Uchiha Clan vanished from sight, Sandaime-sama once again declared Kuroto's victory in the Vote of Confidence. Before he could continue, Yui's jubilant cry interrupted him, "Congratulations, Kuroto-kun! You...you have become Hokage! You truly are Hokage now!" Her eyes welled up with tears as she expressed her heartfelt wishes.

At that moment, Sandaime approached Kuroto, ceremoniously draping him with the Godaime Hokage haori and taking off his own Hokage hat to place it upon Kuroto's head, an act met with a smile from the newly appointed Hokage. After the formalities were concluded, Sandaime addressed Kuroto, saying, "Kuroto-kun, from this moment onward, you are the Godaime Hokage of Konohagakure! Please govern with care and protect our village."

Instantly, the square erupted with applause and cheers. Overwhelmed by the moment, Kuroto, now adorned with the Hokage haori and the Hokage hat, found himself momentarily dazed as the resounding applause and jubilation filled his ears.

"Surprisingly, here I am, the one who was left in the village by Orochimaru as a spy due to the seal on my forehead, now standing as the Hokage!" Kuroto marvelled inwardly. The realization of his newfound position sparked a curious thought in his mind—what kind of expression would grace Orochimaru's face when he learns that his former subordinate, has ascended to the esteemed role of Godaime Hokage?

Would the legendary Sannin be stunned into silence? Regardless of the response, Kuroto's rise to Hokage served as a testament to his growth, as well as a stark reminder of how far he had come from his days under Orochimaru's tutelage.
