Chapter 32 Candidates
A week later, three or four days had passed since the funeral of the three generations, and Konoha was gradually recovering from the atmosphere of grief. In any case, the question of the selection of the next Hokage has been put on the bright side.
The so-called kingdom cannot be left without an owner for a day.
This principle is common in any world, and the people of Konoha also understand that this is a big problem. So, on this day, the two advisors of the Konoha Elder Group sat in an office and began to discuss this matter with Jiraiya.
Mito Menyan and Zhuankou Koharu had privately discussed this issue when they were handling the funerals of the three generations before, so as soon as Mito Menyan came up, he said straight to the point: "Jiraiya, now Konoha urgently needs to confirm the next generation of Hokage candidates to stabilize people's hearts, and our opinion is that you will serve as the fifth generation Hokage." With your qualifications, even Danzou won't be able to raise any objections, and the other ninjas will be convinced! ”
Zhuan Xiaochun said: "Yes! We hope that you will be able to take on this responsibility. I know your personality doesn't like this kind of cumbersome government affairs, but you must know that Konoha really needs someone to lead the overall situation right now. We can deal with some things temporarily, but it's not a long-term solution, is it? ”
They understand Jiraiya's preferences very well, but they still try their best to persuade them.
In the face of the persuasion of the two people in turn, Zilai also felt a little irritable. However, he also had his own ideas, so he directly refused: "I know this is important, but I really don't fit." Like you said, I hate this kind of thing, so if you really want me to be this Hokage, I can't handle government affairs with my heart. ”
Without waiting for the two elder advisors to continue to persuade him, Jiraiya continued, "Actually, I have a better idea, you must know that I am not the only one who is suitable to be the Hokage. There's another person who's better suited than me. Not only strength, but also fame and bloodline, it is more suitable! ”
After saying this, the two elders glanced at each other and thought of one person in unison.
"Is it Tsunade?"
"Indeed, she is a little more suitable than you. But the problem is that she hasn't been back to Konoha in years. Over the years, there hasn't been much news! Would she like to go back to Konoha? ”
Regarding some of the things that Tsunade did back then, as well as the reason why she didn't return to Konoha once for many years, in fact, both of them knew some inside stories, so they had such worries. Moreover, I still need to look for her to come back, and I am afraid it will take a lot of time.
"Don't worry, I'll get her back!" Zilai also said very confidently: "I know what she usually does, and I know where to find her." She'll definitely want to come back to Konoha, I know! ”
In this regard, a helpless look appeared on Mito Menyan's serious face: "Well, in that case..."
He glanced at Koharu and Zhuanyu: "Then you can go find Tsunade and come back." But if she doesn't want to come back, you'll have to be the fifth Hokage! You have to commit to that! ”
"Good!" Jiraiya said with a smile.
He has this self-confidence, as a teammate for many years, Tsunade doesn't dare to say what is going on in his heart, but her character and the importance she attaches to Konoha make him believe that Tsunade will definitely be willing to return to Konoha to help this village that is now in trouble.
He was sure.
But if you look for it alone, won't it be a little boring on the road? Why don't you just take that guy Naruto with you, and you can guide him along the way.
However, this matter can't be told to the two elders, Mito Menyan is a typical diehard, although it can't reach the level of Tuanzang, but he will definitely not agree to this kind of thing to let the Nine-Tails Zhuli out of the village. So Jiraiya planned to cut first and then play, and when he took Naruto out of the village, it was too late for them to think about anything.
At this time, Naruto was resting on the grass. Next to him, Yuzo is constantly trying the limit of the thinnest line, and the limit of toughness.
In the past few days, Naruto has gradually detached himself from the negative emotions of three generations of death. He is still working hard to practice, and his personality is gradually returning to normal. At this time, he had just been practicing for several hours with high intensity, and he was covered in sweat and enjoying the breeze. And Yuzo happened to be on shift today, and these days he was doing some tasks such as maintaining order or secret whistles, and he was bored to go to Ino only to find that they had gone out of the village to do a mission, so he had to come to Naruto.
It's a good thing that Naruto didn't go out of the village to do the mission, otherwise Yuzo would really feel bored.
Watch the rain hide keep changing the line, and then let the line dissipate. Naruto asked with some curiosity, "Amoza, what the hell is your thread?" It looks amazing, it's much more powerful than steel wire, and it can become hard and soft, and it can appear out of thin air! ”
Yuzang stopped what he was doing, thought carefully for a moment and replied, "Actually, I don't know what it is, I don't understand what the thread I made is..."
In One Piece, the various abilities of the Devil Fruit are indeed conceptual things. It's not just a thread fruit, like a meat ball fruit, is it just a meat ball? What kind of meat ball can rebound from injuries and various negative states? There is no such thing at all, but conceptually speaking, meat balls can bounce everything, so if it is well developed, it can really bounce everything.
The same is true of the fruit of the line, and the so-called line is also a product of the concept. What substance is he made of? I don't know. You just need to know that this wire can improve the hardness, toughness and sharpness without limit, and the nature can also be changed in various ways, just need to be the line.
In this way, even the so-called fate line, lifeline, and world line can be controlled by him. But in fact, he doesn't have this terrifying ability, maybe he will reach such a state when he develops to the real limit?
The rain hides unknown.
"So?" Naruto felt a little disappointed, he thought there would be something special, but it turned out that Yuzo himself didn't understand, it was really boring!
"Anyway, I can say that all things that can be called threads can be made in the concept. I should be able to make a normal thread for sewing clothes or weaving, but it doesn't make any sense. I'm so focused on the power of the development line that I don't have time for the useless. Yuzo explained, but it was just his own understanding.
"Is it really that powerful?" Naruto was surprised, and he became interested in the line again, "Then you can get some line for me to show me?"
Using chakra to make some ordinary thick threads, handing them to Naruto, Yuzo said, "Actually, it's nothing special, this ability still depends on your own creation and use, and the ability I have developed is far from enough."
If nothing else, the ability to suture wounds on their own is not yet a clue.
"I don't think ah, this ability is really handsome!"
Yuzo didn't say anything about this, and let Naruto look at it over and over with the white thread. In its normal state, the thread is white, about the same thickness as a human hair, and is relatively soft, but it is very tough. The transparent thread is the main force used by Yuzo to attack, and the hardness and sharpness are very strong and thin.
Suddenly, a question occurred to him. Originally, he wanted to ask Ino, but now that Naruto is around, it would be better to ask him. But Naruto's answer, he felt was already predictable.
"Naruto, what do you want to do most in your life?"
"Why are you asking this? I've said it many times! I'm the man who wants to be the Hokage! Recognized by everyone in the village! Even if you can't stop me, you won't be able to stop me, or you'll be my enemy! Naruto said with a serious face, and the content was also expected by Yuzo.
"What about after becoming the Hokage and getting everyone's approval?" It wasn't what he wanted to know, so he pressed on.
"Ahh Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration: "I know! If you want to marry Sakura, you'll be my wife! ”
Yuzo felt speechless, he didn't know how to continue the topic. Naruto didn't know when he would realize that Sakura didn't like him at all, and instead pounced on Sasuke wholeheartedly. Judging from the original book, maybe it was in the process of chasing Sasuke who left the village that he gradually understood this problem?
Anyway, don't talk about this for now.
At this time, Jiraiya's voice rang out: "Are you two quite leisurely?" Naruto, I have an S-class mission here, do you want to know about it? ”
For Naruto, this kind of topic was like a fly touching a dung heap, and the hot-blooded boy suddenly became excited: "What! Lustful fairy, what kind of S-class mission is it! ”
Jilai also looked unhappy: "Change your name first!"
"Okay, it's the handsome and stylish Jiraiya, the toad of Miaomu Mountain, the great immortal Jiraiya, tell me what the mission is! Can I participate? Naruto instantly lost all his temperance, and his mouth was saying unbearable sycophants, not at all with the aura of being called a lecherous fairy before.
S-Class Mission? Yuzo feels a little strange.,Is there such a task in the original book? By the way, it can't be the incident of Jiraiya taking Naruto to Tsunade!
Do you want to intervene yourself?
