Naruto: The Beginning of the Game

"Huruzen, this is not your fault. It's the reckless ambitions of those Kumogakure men. The responsibility lies with Kumogakure!" Utatane Koharu came out to help Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately.

"That's right!" Mito Kado En also spoke up, saying, "This matter cannot be blamed on you. It's all Kumogakure's fault. Hiruzen, you have done a good job."

"Okay!" Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said seriously: "I must take the main responsibility for this matter. If I hadn't been careless, Nakata would not have died, and our Konoha would not have suffered such damage."

Looking at the group of senior ninjas, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath and said solemnly: "After this period of reflection and review, I think that I am no longer suitable to be the Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen solemnly announced: "So, I decided to abdicate and let the new generation of Hokage bring a new look to our Konoha!"

As soon as these words came out, the senior ninjas in the conference room whispered to each other and discussed in a low voice.

"Huruzen, you..." Mizuto Kado En looked surprised, as if he just knew Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision.

"Huruzen, no, you are now an experienced and capable person, don't be rash..." Utatane Koharu quickly advised.

"Yes, Hiruzen, you'd better think carefully. Under your leadership over the years, Konoha has been full of talents and thriving. Don't make rash decisions!" Mizuto Kado En also persuaded.

"The consultant is right, Hokage should be more cautious. After the war, we Konoha needs an experienced Hokage like you to take the helm..."

"That's right, the situation in the ninja world is changing now. With a Hokage like you who can stabilize the sea, we can feel at ease..."

In addition to the two of them, some other senior ninjas also persuaded.

Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Ming and others watched all this calmly.

They knew that this was just a formality.

This helped Sarutobi Hiruzen regain some face.

"Okay!" Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly, saying, "This is a decision I made after careful consideration. In the current situation, we need a young and strong Hokage in Konoha!"

"Alas, Hiruzen, you..." Mito Kado En sighed helplessly.

Utatane Koharu sighed, "Well, Hiruzen, since this is a decision you made after careful consideration, as friends, we can only support your decision."

"So Hiruzen, who do you think is more suitable for the Fifth Hokage in our village now?" she asked again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath of smoke, and his serious voice came from the smoke: "Now there are many people with this ability in our Konoha Village, but I think there are only two most suitable candidates for the Fifth Hokage."

While speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and looked at Uchiha Akira who was sitting next to Uchiha Fugaku with soft eyes. He said:

"The Uchiha clan's Uchiha Akira Jonin previously showed his power in the battlefields of Kumogakure and Iwagakure, and beat them to a pulp.

"The reason why we were able to win the war against Kumogakure and Iwagakure this time was that Uchiha Akira Jonin was the first to contribute! He deeply understood the will of fire of our Konoha and is an excellent inheritor of the will of fire. "

"I think everyone agrees that Uchiha Akira Jonin is the candidate for the Fifth Hokage, right? "Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the jonin in the conference room with a serious face.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen's words fell, the conference room suddenly became noisy.

The jonin present were whispering to each other.

They did not seem surprised. It was natural for Uchiha Ming to become a candidate.

At this time, in Konoha, in terms of strength and achievements, Uchiha Ming was the first. It was unreasonable and unconvincing that he did not become a candidate.

The Uchiha clan was excited and very happy.

The Uchiha clan's long-cherished wish was finally about to be realized in this generation.

Even Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but smile. Although he was not the Hokage, Uchiha Ming was also his disciple.

For him, Uchiha Ming becoming Hokage was a long-cherished wish in his heart.

"My burden has been put down, and I should enjoy the rest of my life! "Uchiha Fugaku thought.

"Ming is about to become Hokage, it seems that he is younger than the former Fourth Hokage!" Uchiha Shisui admired in his heart.

He used to be very worried about the relationship between the clan and the village, and believed that there was a huge gap and contradiction between the village and the clan.

Now all problems are solved, Uchiha Ming has become Hokage, and all problems are no longer problems!

"The village will definitelyReach the pinnacle under the leadership of Brother Ming!" Uchiha Shisui thought.

Mitomon Yan spoke seriously and said: "Uchiha Ming Jonin has strength and achievements. I, Mitomon Yan, have no objection to him becoming the candidate for Hokage. I agree."

Tanane Koharu, who was opposite him, nodded in agreement and said: "I agree too. At present, among our Konoha, Uchiha Ming Jonin is the one who has the most qualifications for Hokage."

"Well, very good!" Sarutobi Hiruzen heard their words, nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice, "In this case, then I propose that Uchiha Ming Jonin officially become one of the candidates for the fifth generation Hokage of our Konoha."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, Uchiha Ming stood up and said seriously: "I, Uchiha Ming, if I can be elected Hokage, I will definitely lead Konoha to the real peak!"

"Very good! "Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction, then looked at everyone and asked, "As for the other candidate running for the Fifth Hokage, what do you think of Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First Hokage? ”

There can’t be only one candidate for the election of Hokage. This is not a matter of accepting an appointment in a crisis. Of course, the normal election process must be followed.

The senior ninjas present are not unfamiliar with Tsunade. She is the granddaughter of the first Hokage and one of the famous three ninjas. She is extremely powerful and has superb medical ninjutsu. She is qualified to be the Hokage.

Moreover, Tsunade’s achievements are sufficient. Although she is much inferior to Uchiha Ming’s current achievements, with the bonus of her ancestors, there must be many people who support Tsunade.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen said this, the senior ninjas present began to discuss in a low voice again.

“I don’t object to what Lady Tsunade said. She trained many medical ninjas for our Konoha and established our Konoha’s medical system. She made great contributions to the village...”

“If it is Lady Tsunade, then we will naturally agree, but is Lady Tsunade willing to come back? The death of the grandson of the first Hokage was a huge blow to Lady Tsunade, causing her to be quite dissatisfied with the current village..."

"Since Lord Hokage said so, it means that he is ready and must have convinced Lady Tsunade."

…

For a while, the voices of the jonins' discussions were endless.
