In the conference room of the Hokage Building, the Konoha F4 were lined up sequentially above the high seat. There were less than 30 people sitting on the floor below, which looked particularly miserable.
Hyuga Hiashi, Nara Shikahisa, Akimichi Choza, Yamanaka inochi, Shiki, and others sat in the first row, frowning. Kakashi stood in the corner with a gloomy face, the expression on his face proving that he was not interested in this meeting.
Koharu coughed twice and said to the few Konoha Shinobi below, "Although we successfully defeated the Nine Tails, the price we paid was too great. We don't have time to wallow in grief; it is urgent to choose a suitable successor to fill the void in Hokage."
Nara Shikaku frowned and slowly spoke, "Why don't you just entrust it to the generation of ninjas after Watergate?"
Koharu glanced at Kakashi, then cleared her throat and said, "Although there are excellent Shinobi among them, it is undeniable that their experience is not enough to lead the people."
As soon as these words came out, the upper ninja present frowned at the same time. A trace of bad foreboding flashed in Nara Shikaku's heart, and he hurriedly asked, "So who else?"
Danzo in F4 was overjoyed. He was just about to get up and introduce himself when Hiruzen on the side stood up suddenly. "Cough, as a last resort, these are extraordinary times, and I am willing to take on this heavy responsibility."
Mito and Koharu on the side immediately echoed as if they were rehearsing, "Oh~ you are willing to go out of the horse." "Since you are willing to agree, it will be really good~"
Danzo's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he hurriedly reminded in a deep voice, "You once gave up the position of Hokage; are you really capable of doing it?"
Seeing this, Koharu hurriedly wanted to open her mouth for Sarutobi Hiruzen, but Danzo immediately picked up, "In fact, although you rushed to the scene of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, you still failed to rescue Shidaime."
Mito coughed twice dryly, "You're talking too much."
Koharu asked directly, "Danzo, where were you at that time?"
Danzo's face turned black, and he gritted his teeth in anger. He went to spy on Uchiha at the time, and now he couldn't say it.
Hiruzen on the side laughed, "Hahaha, it's my old man who can't measure himself, so until the next Shinobi Hokage grows up, it's only good if I'm a transition, so it's always okay, right?"
Sarutobi had a smiling expression, and now he was the only one in the entire Konoha who could perfectly pacify the daimyo and commoners. Even if Danzo and the various ninja clans did not want him to come back, there was no better way to face this situation.
If there is chaos in Konoha because of the leaderlessness of the dragons, then there is no doubt that the ninjas of other villages will start a new fourth ninja war.
Just when everyone looked at each other and had to accept this fact, Toki suddenly led Uchiha Setsuna in from outside the door. "I object!"
Hiruzen face suddenly became ugly. Uchiha Setsuna said as if he hadn't seen his constipated face at all, "I remember that our third generation of Hokage-sama resigned because of his improper command in the Third Ninja World War, right? Do you know what resignation is? How many ninja elites were lost in the Third Ninja World War, I think everyone here knows in their hearts, right?"
"Is it true that our ninja clan accompanies you to the family? And now, your sinful body actually licked your face and jumped out again to lead everyone?"
Koharu on the side hurriedly shouted at Uchiha Setsuna, "Don't fool the public here; Hiruzen is just blaming himself for voluntarily giving up the position of Hokage. It's not at fault as you say!"
Uchiha Setsuna sneered strangely, "I still use provocations; these are all high-level Konoha, and everyone knows the real reason behind them. Since you asked if there is any objection, then I just say what is in my heart."
Mito shouted sharply, "Everyone knows why the fourth Hokage died this time. The Nine Tails are obviously manipulated by people, and the only people in the entire ninja world who have the ability to manipulate the tailed beasts are your Uchiha clan! And you also did not support the fourth Hokage during the Nine Tails Rebellion; what else do you have to say?!"
Hiruzen eyes widened, and he looked at the pig teammate on the side in amazement. Just about to open his mouth to make amends, Setsuna immediately grinned, "Who said we didn't have support? We did, but we received an order from Lord Danzo to prioritize the evacuation of the civilians who died."
"Here I want to have a grudge with Lord Danzo; didn't you just ask where Master Danzo is? Lord Danzo joined us in saving many ordinary civilians."
"So I strongly urge Danzo-sama to serve as the fifth Hokage; whether it is seniority or strength, Danzo-sama is definitely qualified. You can't say that a hidden hero is not a hero, right?"
"Danzo-sama has done so many good things for us Konoha without leaving a name; why can't he be the fifth generation Hokage?"
"And Danzo-sama is Hokage's assistant; Hokage's work is more familiar than Sarutobi Hiruzen; he must be perfectly qualified for the fifth generation Hokage, don't you say?"
At this time, Danzo looked at Uchiha Setsuna with an excited expression. For the first time, he felt that Uchiha was not as evil as he thought.
