Traveling through three generations: Orochimaru, you become the Hokage

When Danzo hurried to the Hokage's office, he saw not only Hiruzen, his old friend for many years, but also two other old friends.

An old woman with her hair tied up in a bun, her eyes narrowed, and her expression serious.

The other one is wearing glasses, his hair is blowing out like a hedgehog, and the raised white scarf partially covers his sharp beard.

He also looked serious.

These were two old men with gray hair. Like him, they were the senior advisors of Konoha and the administrative department's assistant to the Hokage, Mito Katoen and Koharu Koharu.

Seeing the two of them, Danzo felt even more subtly unhappy. Although he had long realized that these two guys would definitely come over to ask, but realizing it and being able to accept it were two different things.

As he expected, Koharu immediately started to accuse him when he went to bed: "Duanzo, you are so disappointing."

"Koharu is right, you haven't been paying attention to what you should be doing recently, right? Danzo." Mito Katoen also had a critical attitude.

These two guys are looking for presence!

Danzo cursed in his heart, of course he knew that these were two old guys who refused to accept old age. I always like to have a presence in such high-level meetings to show my right to speak.

After all, as I get older and start to lose my ability, I like to criticize and make suggestions to show how powerful I am.

Usually they prefer to target Naruto, which means Hiruzen is really good-tempered.

When I become Hokage...

Of course, although he was scolding in his heart, Danzo looked calm and calm on the surface. He said with a good attitude: "It was indeed my negligence."

When they went to bed, both Koharu and Mito Kadoen looked at him in surprise. They didn't expect that this old guy, who had always been known for his toughness, would give in so easily.

But after thinking about it, they all understood what Danzo was thinking. They were all old friends for many years, so no one knew.

Yes, Danzo really wanted to be Hokage. Now is the critical moment when the fourth generation has passed away and the new Hokage has not yet made a clear decision.

At this moment, he cannot be too tough. He needs as much support as possible, so his attitude must be good, whether it is for the two advisory elders or Hiruzen, the Hokage.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he should just give in. The point is that this time he was really negligent, so at this important moment, his attitude must be shown.

"I have asked Gen to handle these matters and I will give you an explanation." He said in a calm tone. Although he had to have a good attitude, he could not really lose a certain tough stance. This was his political foundation.

"Anyone who threatens Konoha will be eradicated by the roots and will not give them any chance to threaten Konoha."

With that said, Danzo looked at the old man sitting behind the desk, smoking silently and wearing a Hokage hat.

Under the shadow of the Hokage's hat, the Third Hokage also looked at the head of the 'Anbu Training Department' in front of him. His forehead, one eye, and his arms were all wrapped in white bandages. Have you been injured recently? It doesn't look like it from the aura, so it means that he is inclined to this kind of attire. What about the disfigurement? So covering up scars? You can't just think that dressing up like this is cool.

The cross scar on his chin is very obvious, and the whole person has a gloomy and dull aura. His eyes can be said to be vicious and sinister. You can tell at a glance that this is a person who has no regard for life.

But it doesn't seem strange that such a person is a spy leader.

He put down his pipe and blew out another puff of smoke. He knew that Danzo was waiting for his words, and the two advisors next to him, Mito Kadeni and Koharu Koharu, were also waiting for him, the Hokage, to speak.

And as soon as he opened his mouth, he had to bring the matter to a summary level, so that he could be worthy of his status as Hokage.

"The reason why this happened is, ultimately, due to the influence of the Nine-Tails Rebellion." He said: "The enemies outside saw our weakness from this, so they pushed behind our backs."

"Hiruzhan, you are right." Danzo was the first to agree.

After turning to bed, Xiaochun asked: "Then we want to investigate who is behind this?"

"I will send someone to investigate." Danzo Shimura said immediately.

Until now, all this is 'correct nonsense', and it is what it should be, but they are expressing it in such nonsense.

Of course, this was brought about by the Third Hokage. Mito Kaden and Koharu were also sighing in their hearts. Hiruzen and he were indeed making trouble again.

And Danzo felt relaxed. Since Hiruzen was so reconciled with Xini, it meant that this matter would be easily revealed.

And as he relaxed, Danzo's heart immediately became hot again.

Since Hiruzen is willing to expose it so gently, does it mean that he supports himself to become the 'Fifth Generation Hokage'?

Just when he was having wild thoughts.

"Danzo, En, and Koharu, I've been a little powerless lately."

The Third Hokage suddenly sighed, looking tired.

Danzo is a genius!

Although he felt that this might be Hiruzen simply expressing his feelings to old friends like them, he still couldn't help but wonder, was this sending out a certain signal?

Koharu Tanzania and Mito Kadenen didn't think much about it. After all, they didn't have much desire for Hokage. Koharu Tanzania said: "If you feel too tired, Hiruzen, you can take a rest."

"That's right. This village still needs you, Hiruzen, to survive. Hiruzen, you have to take care of yourself." Mito Kadoyan also said with concern.

As old friends for many years, they were deeply touched when they saw Hiruzen showing such a tired and old look.

"...I was thinking, since I am becoming more and more incompetent, should I find someone more suitable?" Sandai smiled, as if he had been comforted by his old man, which made him feel better.

Danzo's heart was completely lifted.

After hearing such a clear statement, Koharu and Mito Kadoyan, who had gone to bed, fell silent for a moment.

Didn't Hiruzen really say that casually?

"So Hiruzen, do you have anyone in mind?" Mito Monobu asked directly.

Danzo Shimura's heart tightened even more.

The Third Hokage thought for a while and then said a name: "Orochimaru."

Mitomon Yan and Koharu, who moved to bed, thought for a while and nodded.

There is indeed no better choice in Konoha Hidden Village now. If Tsunade runs away and Jiraiya runs away, then it can only be Orochimaru.

Although they don't like Orochimaru very much, they are both from the Hokage lineage, and it is in their best interests for Orochimaru to succeed.

On the other side, Danzo Shimura remained silent, but felt relieved in his heart.

Fortunately, it was Orochimaru. For him, Orochimaru was the best target.

But don't be too busy focusing on it. Success as Hokage can't be so fast. Let Hiruzen and the others have a good talk about Orochimaru's succession and make preparations for it.

In this case, he could also arrange for people to contact Jiraiya and Tsunade, making their whereabouts more obscure and even harder to find.

As a result, after Orochimaru was ruled out, he could not find a suitable candidate for a while.

So who else would the fifth Hokage be?
