Chapter 250: Acting Hokage
The first rays of sunlight of the morning shone through Konoha Village, and the battle that had lasted all night finally came to an end.
Last night was a heavy loss for Konoha and the villagers evacuated in time without many casualties, but Nakagami Shinobu sacrificed a third to stop the Nine-Tails.
Not to mention that there were hundreds of White Jues blending into the crowd, Orochimaru was not very fast at identifying Bai Jue, and this group of White Jues also caused huge losses to Konoha before they were found.
The most important thing is that Konoha lost the four generations of Hokage Wave Feng Shui Gate, who had just been in office for a year, and the four generations of Hokage sacrificed himself, sealed the Nine-Tails, and protected Konoha.
The funeral of Bo Feng Shuimen was set for two days later, and the country could not be without a king for a day, and Konoha Village could not be without a village chief for a day, at this time, the Konoha high-ranking and the strong people in the village gathered together to discuss the matter of the Hokage.
"What happened last night..."
"I'm sorry, the old man is late!" As soon as the three generations of Hokage spoke, Danzou pushed the door and entered, interrupting the words of the three generations of Hokage.
"Tuanzang? What are you here for? Zhuan Xiaochun frowned and asked.
"I called him here, and the group has the right to know about last night's incident." Mito Menyan replied lightly.
"Alright, now that you're here, sit down!" When the three generations of Hokage saw Danzo, they hesitated for a moment and finally let him stay.
Danzo sat down next to Mito Menyan.
"Let's go on, last night..."
"Sorry, sorry, we're late!" This time, it was Yamanaka Yuan and Kushina, who was holding Naruto, who pushed the door in together, and the faces of the three generations of Hokage instantly darkened.
However, when the three generations of Hokage saw the child in Kushina's arms, he remembered Bo Feng Shuimen and sighed and motioned for the two to sit down.
Yamanaka Yuan and Kushina mother and son and Hachiki Shuo Shigeru, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru sat together.
The three generations of Hokage did not rush to speak, but first swept around the crowd, and after making sure that no one was late, the three generations of Hokage continued: "I think everyone knows about what happened last night and participated in it, on behalf of Konoha, I thank everyone for the bloody battle last night, it was you who protected this village." After saying that, the three generations of Hokage bowed to everyone.
"Hizai, you are too polite, it was our responsibility to protect Konoha." Mito Menyan said.
"Really? But why didn't I see you in the battle last night? Orochimaru went against the norm and refuted Mito Men's Inflammation.
Yamanaka Yuan was stunned for a moment, it was the first time he had seen Orochimaru take the initiative to attack someone in this kind of meeting, and the faces of the others were also a little strange.
"Uncle Snake, if you didn't see it, it doesn't mean that Elder Yan didn't participate in the war, but I sensed yesterday that Elder Yan has been protecting civilians in the shelter."
Yamanaka Yuan has never had a good impression of Mito Menyan, not to mention that he really sensed that Mito Menyan escaped from the battle last night and hid with civilians.
Mito Menyan's face was purple by Orochimaru and Yamanaka Yuanqi, and everyone looked at Mito Menyan with contempt, and the eyes of the three generations of Hokage were also full of disappointment.
However, in the end, it was his old comrade-in-arms, the third generation Hokage, who took the initiative to divert the topic: "Ahem, let's talk about other things later, okay?" Don't forget that I'm calling you here today for the Hokage's sake. ”
"Hizai, you mean to elect the fifth Hokage?" Zhuan Xiaochun asked.
"It's up to everyone's opinion!" The three Hokages kicked the ball to everyone.
The others began to talk about it, and Yamanaka Yuan also established a spiritual connection with Jiraiya and the others, and after a few minutes, Yamanaka Yuan and the others reached a consensus.
The first to speak was Hinata Hinata: "Three generations of adults, I think it is possible to elect five generations of Hokage, and I personally recommend Jiraiya-sama." ”
"I have a different opinion, Jiraiya-sama is too jumpy, not suitable to be the Hokage, our Sarutobi clan recommends Orochimaru-sama!"
For a while, the scene was out of control, and each family was recommending their favorite Hokage candidates, and the ones recommended by them were nothing more than Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Hachiki Shuomao, and the group of families who didn't know how many families they bought.
Seeing that everyone was arguing, according to the plan discussed with Yamanaka Yuan, Hachiki Shuo Shigeru stood up and said: "This farce is over here, a few of us oppose the election of the fifth generation Hokage!" ”
The conference room fell silent for a moment, and everyone didn't expect that the shadow-level people of Konoha would collectively oppose the election of the fifth generation Hokage.
After a while, the patriarch of the Ape Fei clan cautiously asked, "Then I don't know what the adults think?" ”
"The five generations are empty for the time being! We think that we will choose an acting Hokage to deal with the affairs of the village first, and after the bad influence of the Nine-Tails Night is eliminated, we will select the fifth generation Hokage. Yamanaka said lightly.
The representative of the small family who was bought by the group said, "If you act as the Hokage, wouldn't it be okay to have three generations of adults?" ”
"The old man has been retired for a year, so don't bother him!" Zilai also immediately objected.
The conference room was quiet again, everyone looked at each other and didn't say anything, in the ninja world, in the end, strength still determines everything, and Konoha's shadow level is against it, and it is useless for them to discuss.
Seeing that the dust was about to settle on this matter, Mito Menyan couldn't sit still, and he knew yesterday that this meeting was related to the Hokage.
Mito Menyan spent a lot of resources to buy off more than half of the small and medium-sized families in Konoha in order to make Danzou become the Hokage and make a comeback.
But now if he chooses what agent Hokage has done, everything he has done is in vain, Mito Menyan stood up: "Hmph! I'm against it! How can a village as big as Konoha do without the Hokage? ”
"Then according to Elder Yan's meaning, who do you think is more suitable among the five generations of Hokage?" Yamanaka opened the kaleidoscope and used illusion on Mito Menyan to make him speak his heart.
Yamanaka far contact lenses, and there are no Uchiha clansmen in the conference room, so no one noticed anything abnormal.
After Mito Menyan fell into the illusion, he directly said his inner thoughts: "Of course it's Tuanzang." ”
When Yamanaka heard Tuanzo's name, he pursed his lips disdainfully, and then the chakra in his body erupted: "When the Hokage has to be strong, Danzo, how many seconds do you think you can hold on to my hands?" ”
Danzou snorted coldly and didn't answer, and Yamanaka Yuan shattered his illusion about the Hokage in the most direct way.
After a few minutes of silence in the conference room, the three generations of Hokage said: "I understand everyone's opinions, judging from the situation just now, I still think that there are more people who do not elect the fifth generation Hokage for the time being, so I respect everyone's opinions, and first decide on an acting Hokage, what do you think about the candidate for the acting Hokage?" ”
This time, no one spoke, and everyone looked at Yamanaka Yuan and the others.
Yamanaka Yuan smiled, stood up and said, "I propose that Hachiki Shuo Shigeru be the acting Hokage, what do you think?" ”
The representatives of each family, after discussing in a whisper for a while, most of them chose to agree, and Sakuge Hachiki officially became the acting Hokage.
