Hey!People are in Konoha, we are the cubs of Otsutsuki

The night that the Orochimaru attack ended.

The three generations of Hokage Sun Zhan, sitting in a wheelchair, listened to the report of the casualties by the moonlight wind.

"A total of 126 ninjas were killed on our side, including three high ninjas, five special high ninjas, 67 middle ninjas, and 51 low ninjas. Thanks to the quick response of Uchiha and the Hyuga clan, there were no civilian casualties..."

This number of casualties made Ri Zhan's heart sink. Although it was a drop in the bucket compared to the Ninja World War, the number that broke out in peacetime for no reason was quite shocking.

After the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Konoha's vitality was severely damaged. After this catastrophe, it was even worse, but... this loss is still within the range that Sun Zhan can accept.

But the next news was like a bolt from the blue!

"Also, Gen's headquarters was destroyed, Danzo-sama, and all Gen's members disappeared, it should be... all destroyed!"

"Cough cough...!!" Ri Zhan coughed violently.

The wind is concerned: "Lord Hokage, are you alright!"

"No, it's fine." Ri Zhan's face was extremely ugly.

Root is one of Konoha's core strengths, and its importance is comparable to that of his direct subordinate Anbu. Even if he doesn't deal with Danzo on weekdays, he is extremely dependent on Danzo and Root to solve it for him. face of the situation!
Today, Danzo has been uprooted... It also means that his era is truly over!
Alas... the matter has come to this point, Rijian can only accept this reality.

"Your Excellency, are you safe?"

Wind said: "I was a little frightened, but it's not a big problem."

"Alas." Ri Zhan sighed: "What a serious gaffe this is, I hope we won't cut our construction funds."

"By the way, Gale, you look good, and I didn't hear you coughing."

"Well, I took special medicine."

"Special medicine?"

"It was given to me by the child named Yu, who said it was the ancestral secret recipe of the Hyuga clan, and the effect was immediate..."

"The Hyuga clan, they still have research on drugs? Speaking of which, have you ever eaten that kind of candy?"

"candy?"

"Forget it, when I didn't say it."

Ri Zhan Xin said: My old waist is considered a waste, I guess any special medicine is useless, and I will find Tsunade to show it to me in the future.

"Haifeng, you go down, let the upper ninjas gather here, I want to announce an important news!"

"Yes……"

Moonlight Blast thoughtfully exited the tent slowly.

Ri Zhan looked at the cold moon shadow from the gap in the tent, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

This disaster was caused by the fact that he let Orochimaru defect to Konoha back then, but when the disaster happened, he, Hokage, did nothing.

The next Hokage candidate was originally Sannin Jiraiya or Tsunade with Orochimaru.

But they traveled all the year round, and when this catastrophe happened, they were all absent from the battle.

Of course, the most qualified person to become Hokage is Uchiha Itachi who made the greatest contribution in this catastrophe!

To say that Itachi became the resistance of Hokage, is nothing more than a controversial origin.

The Uchiha family, from the very beginning of Konoha's establishment, have been far away from the management of the village, and there have even been episodes of mutiny in the middle.

But in the past five years, Uchiha has used his actions to restore his reputation.

The police force headed by Fuyue not only participated in Konoha legislation, but also made outstanding contributions in law enforcement.

Uchiha already has a mass base, and even has a voice, hoping that Fuyue, the captain of the police force, will join the management of the village, but he was obstructed by Danzo and two advisers, and Fuyue himself refused to realize it.

Now that Itachi has succeeded in the first battle, he is afraid that even if he is not nominated by the three generations of Hokage, he will be the most powerful Hokage candidate. Ri Zhan was on the field at the time, promising to save the village and making Itachi become Hokage. In fact, it is to see through the situation and push the boat!
Although Rijian has many unwillingness, he can only think about the good side.

"Hey... Uchiha can give birth to a real Hokage, maybe this will allow them to better integrate into this village!"

"Rizhan, you can't make an opinion on this matter!"

Just then, there was a voice of disapproval from outside the tent.

Konoha's second advisor, Mito Kadome and Koharu, came side by side.

Sun Zhan: "You..."

Xiaochun: "The matter of letting Itachi be Hokage should be considered in the long run."

Rizao: "Why?"

Xiaochun: "Itachi is too young, talented, not even an adult, and Minato became Hokage back then, after the 20-year-old coming of age ceremony!"

Sun Zhan: "Young age doesn't mean he has outstanding abilities. Besides, Itachi has a resume of working in Anbu. I'm afraid no one will agree if he is not nominated because of his young age."

Men Yan: "Even if age is not a problem, it is not suitable from the perspective of maintaining stability! Just imagine, Uchiha holds the position of Hokage, who can guarantee that the group of people who fought in Uchiha's main battle will not rely on their own power? Danzo, now that Danzo is dead, who can restrain Uchiha? If Uchiha imposes dictatorship on the village, wouldn't we be the sinners of Konoha!"

Xiaochun: "To sum up, our two advisors are firmly opposed to establishing Uchiha Itachi as Hokage!"

"..." Ri Zhan fell into contemplation, because the worries of the two advisors are indeed reasonable!
He worriedly said: "But, I have already promised Itachi, and I have also notified the Shang Nin people to gather. I am afraid that everyone knows what I will announce."

Men Yan: "Sun Zhan, from time to time, you must focus on the overall situation. There is room for mediation in many things. It depends on your ability to adapt..."

Ri Zhan: "You two, you will really give me a problem."

Having said that, Hiizhan breathed a sigh of relief in the depths of his heart.

Ten minutes later, the Jonin came, and Hirizhan spent half an hour talking about his reflections on Konoha's attack, but he just didn't mention the candidate for Hokage.

Ding Zuo felt strange and whispered: "No, are you announcing Itachi as the next candidate?"

Lu Jiu's heart is like a mirror: "I'm afraid, the situation has changed again..."

When the meeting was over, Ri Zhan said: "Itachi, you stay, I have something to tell you alone."

After the others left.

Sun Zhan: "Itachi, you have done a great job in saving the village this time. On behalf of the ninjas and the people, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

Itachi: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This is my duty as a Konoha ninja. I really don't dare to do it."

Ri Zhan: "Young and promising, but not arrogant, Fuyue is really a good teacher."

Itachi said calmly: "Lord Hokage, if you have something to say, please speak directly."

Ri Zhan lowered his eyes: "Remember what I said to you at the meeting?"

Itachi was stunned for a moment, then looked blank, and asked knowingly, "What are you referring to...?"

Rizhan's elbows rested on the armrest of the wheelchair, holding the old hand in front of his chest, and rubbing his thumbs: "That is, it is the matter of appointing you to be the next Hokage..."

Itachi looked hesitant for a moment: "At that time, I was all about rejecting the enemy, and I didn't have the heart to pay attention to other things... You, you want to make me Hokage?"

"Ah, this, I will honor the promise, but you are still too young, I'm afraid there will inevitably be doubts, look at this, the fifth generation, let Jiraiya or Tsunade do it first, and the sixth generation will let you Come, you can also experience and grow for a while, so that there will be fewer doubts about you."

Having said that, Ri Zhan raised his gaze and asked tentatively, "Itachi, what do you think?"
