Naruto's strongest wooden escape

"Yes, Minato, you have become Hokage at such a young age, you really have a bright future!" said the Inuzuka clan leader.

Everyone else congratulated Minato Namikaze with one word or another, and some even flattered Minato Namikaze by the way.

In sharp contrast to these people, the leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku, still sat in his original position with his arms folded, and did not go to congratulate Namikaze Minato like most people.

"What a disgusting bunch of sycophants." Uchiha Fugaku glanced at the dozens of ninjas beside Namikaze Minato and muttered in a low voice.

It's not that Uchiha Fugaku doesn't understand the ways of the world, it's really because Uchiha Fugaku wants to stick to his own path and doesn't want to work with a group of people who follow the trend.

"Looking at today's formation, Matsuri, have you been abandoned by them?" Uchiha Fugaku frowned, wondering in his heart.

As early as ten years ago, Uchiha Fugaku had intentionally or unintentionally roped in his younger brother Uchiha Matsuri, intending to use Uchiha Matsuri to realize his plan to enter the top ranks of Konoha.

However, Uchiha Fugaku's little calculation was destined to be "all in vain" from the moment the Uchiha Festival entered the "root" part.

At that time, Uchiha Fugaku naively believed that Uchiha Matsuri's entry into the "root" department had nothing to do with Uchiha Matsuri's "falling out of favor".

Only now did Uchiha Fugaku understand that, in fact, Uchiha Matsuri was no longer on the Third Hokage's inspection list.

"Uchiha's identity really hinders Matsuri's career." Uchiha Fugaku shook his head mockingly.

Although Uchiha Matsuri grew up next to Jiraiya, he has never had any contact with the Uchiha clan.However, no matter what, the Uchiha Festival is still the blood of the Uchiha clan.

Even if Uchiha Matsuri's heart is not towards the Uchiha clan, it is still difficult for the top management of Konoha, headed by the Third Hokage, to leave Konoha to Uchiha Matsuri for management.

"Plan A has failed, it seems that we can only implement plan B..." Uchiha Fugaku curled his lips, staring at the proud Namikaze Minato with complicated eyes, and thought to himself.

Just when Uchiha Fugaku stood in unison and wanted to leave the conference room, the leader of the Nara clan, Nara Shikaku, had already walked to Uchiha Fugaku's side.

"Chief Fugaku, I didn't expect you to be here." Nara Shikaku said with a smile.

"It's the Shikaku clan leader." Uchiha Fugaku chuckled and said meaningfully, "The clan leaders of Hinata, Inuzuka, and Aburame have all gone to congratulate Minato Namikaze. Why don't you, Haiichi, Choza and the others go to Minato? Congratulations?"

As the leader of the famous Nara clan in Konoha, Nara Shikaku did not congratulate Minato Namikaze at this time, which was already beyond Uchiha Fugaku's expectations.

As for why Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza didn't go to congratulate them.

Those who are familiar with the original work of Naruto will naturally know that since the Warring States Period, "Ino Shika Butterfly" (Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi) has been all battles and all actions.

Because Nara Shikamaru, who actually serves as the captain of "Inokacho", did not go to congratulate him. As a member of "Inokacho", Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza naturally did not go to Namikaze Minato to congratulate him.

"Clan Chief Fugaku was joking." Nara Shikaku smiled, "If it's true, Chief Fugaku, didn't you also not go to congratulate me?"

& nb

sp; As soon as the words were spoken, Uchiha Fugaku and Nara Shikaku stared at each other, trying to see what the other person was really thinking. A few seconds later, Uchiha Fugaku and Nara Shikaku burst into laughter at the same time.

"Msuri is my younger brother. If he loses the election, I will naturally feel sad for him." Uchiha Fugaku snorted and said displeasedly, "As for this kind of occasion, I don't want to go, so I won't participate in it. "

Although Uchiha Fugaku went to congratulate him now, it would appear that Uchiha Fugaku was more open-minded. However, even Uchiha Fugaku himself knew that he was not destined to be a broad-minded person who could tolerate everything.

What's more, Uchiha Fugaku never likes to compromise with others.Uchiha Fugaku had never forced himself to do something like this that he didn't want to do.

"Clan Chief Fugaku is a real person. For this, Haiichi and Choza and I admire you very much." Nara Shikaku raised the corners of his mouth slightly, not shying away from his admiration for Uchiha Fugaku.

"To be honest, I don't want to be compared with them... It's just that many decisions in life are involuntary..." Nara Shikaku said frankly.

"...Before I become completely numb, I want to be willful again. What's more, Minato is my friend, and so is Matsuri. To just congratulate Minato and ignore Matsuri is not in line with my usual approach... …”

Originally, Nara Shikaku and Uchiha Fugaku were both disgusted with the behavior of Hyuga ninjas and others from the bottom of their hearts.

However, as Nara Shikaku came into contact with more and more people and things, Nara Shikaku gradually became the person he hated before.

However, this time, because he had a very good relationship with both Matsuri and Minato, Nara Shikaku simply acted willfully and chose to follow his heart.

This choice may have some adverse effects on himself, but Nara Shikaku no longer cares.

Because Nara Shikaku has compromised too many times before, and this time is a rare opportunity for Nara Shikaku to choose to rebel.

……

"In this case, the Third Generation's motives for sending me to Kyoto to perform a mission at this point in time must be impure."

After listening to Sarutobi Asuma's narration, Uchiha Matsuri finally understood why the Third Hokage said, "The rest of the matter is not up to me." It turned out that the old man had already planned it and was spending his money. At the same time, Minato Namikaze was chosen as the successor to the position of Hokage.

"According to my father's wishes, the meeting to decide whether to elect Minato-senpai as the fourth Hokage will be held today..." Sarutobi Asuma said in a low voice.

"Really..." Uchiha Matsuri said with a bitter smile, "Then I really should go and congratulate Minato in person."

Although Uchiha Matsuri had long expected this result, when the news of "Namikaze Minato becoming the fourth Hokage" really came, Uchiha Matsuri could not help but feel a wave of disappointment in his heart.

Even though Uchiha Matsuri had been hinting to himself that Namikaze Minato and he were good friends, his becoming Hokage was no different from his own becoming Hokage, and he should even congratulate him generously.However, whether consciously or subconsciously, Uchiha Matsuri is still worried about this.

Although it is unlikely that he will be Hokage from the beginning to the end, this was his dream after all!

Uchiha Matsuri felt very uncomfortable when he saw someone who was inferior to him in all aspects, and for some well-known reasons, got the position of Hokage before himself.
