Naruto, my uncle is going to be Hokage!

Chapter 37 I will be the Hokage! I will never be so weak!
Using the body of Hizashi Hizashi, the younger brother of Hizashi Hinata, in exchange for the satisfaction of the Raikage was a choice that he and Hiruzen all agreed upon.

As a branch family, Hyuga Hizashi is like a caged bird, and once he dies, he will launch the destructive Byakugan.

Don't worry about rolling your eyes.

Moreover, as a person with the same appearance as Hiashi, Hiashi's body is also convincing enough to be mistaken for Hiashi's and presented to the Raikage.

This amount should be enough to satisfy the Raikage.

This is the perfect choice.

But something they didn't expect happened. Hinata Hiashi actually told them the result of their private discussion so easily.

This was a meeting specifically designed to put pressure on Namikaze Mirai.

How can such a thing be made public?
A trace of anger welled up in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

What’s going on with this guy Rizu?

Hadn't he been reminded not to mention this matter at the meeting?
As Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hiashi angrily, shocked discussions were heard in the conference room.

"Trading Hiashi's brother for the Raikage's satisfaction? When did we in Konoha become so weak?"

"The Hyuga are the largest ninja clan in Konoha. If this happened to my clan..."

“Is it wrong for a father to protect his daughter?”

Amid the noisy and shocked voices, Hyuga Hiashi did not avoid or give way, but directly met Sarutobi Hiruzen's angry gaze.

Eyes calm.

Lord Hokage, please forgive me for going against you this time.

His memory went back to the day before the meeting.

……

"No!"

"How can I let Hizashi die in my place? Neji is only four years old!"

"This is the result of a joint discussion among our elders. The Hokage has already agreed. As a branch family, isn't it time for us to play a role?"

"How can I possibly agree to this kind of thing, letting my own brother die in my place..."

Hinata Hiashi collapsed on the mat, never expecting that things would develop to this point.

"Brother, I have agreed."

Hinata Hizashi, who looks almost the same with a bandage wrapped around his forehead, kneels on the mat in front of him with a gentle look in his eyes.

"As a branch family, isn't it for the purpose of protecting the main family?"

"Being able to die protecting my brother is the best outcome for me as a younger brother."

Hinata Hiashi clenched his fists unwillingly.

"Damn it! How could it become like this?"

How could they possibly accept such a thing!
"So, you want to change all this?"

The tightly closed door was slowly slid open, and outside the room, a calm yet slightly heavy voice was heard.

Hinata Hiashi raised his head and looked at the blond figure who suddenly appeared.

His eyes were shocked.

"Future, why are you here?"

This is Hyuga's meeting hall. How come Namikaze Mirai is here?

So he heard the entire conversation just now?

"Can you really accept letting your own brother die in your place?"

Namikaze Mirai looked down at Hyuga Hiashi.

His biomagnetic field perception covers the entire Hyuga, and nothing that happens here can escape his eyes.

Hinata Hiashi had tears in his eyes and clenched his hands unwillingly.

"If possible, I would never make this choice, but as for the Hokage..."

"Leave the Hokage to me. From now on, please do exactly as I say."

After hearing what Namikaze Mirai said, Hinata Hiashi's eyes changed from confusion, to surprise, and then to shock.

"Why are you helping me?"

"I'm not helping you, I'm helping your brother."

"Me?" Hizashi, who was already prepared to die, had never expected things to turn out like this. He looked at Namikaze Mirai in astonishment.

I want to find the answer from his face.

There was a hint of sadness in Namikaze Mirai's deep blue eyes.

That was an emotion completely different from his tough exterior.

"Maybe it's because you're also a younger brother, and you want to protect your older brother?"

Hinata Hizashi looked at Namikaze Mirai who was in a daze, and his body suddenly trembled.

He suddenly remembered.

When that night happened, Namikaze Mirai was not in the village and could only watch Minato die.

Nothing can be done.

……

Why!
Why do this!
There seemed to be fire burning in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes as he looked at Hinata Hiashi, and the heavy and angry look seemed to be questioning him repeatedly.

Hasn't the matter of the day difference been decided?

How could such a thing be made public?
Put it under the eyes of all Konoha’s top leaders!

Do you want them to see that your Hokage uses your brother's death in exchange for the Raikage's appeasement?

"Hokage-sama, I would like to ask, is what Hinata Hiashi said true?"

The one who asked the question was the head of the Inuzuka clan.

If even the Hyuga were treated like this, what would happen if it happened to small tribes like theirs?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his sweaty palms, his eyes changed from struggling to hesitating, and finally to tiredness...

"Yes."

Of course!

An uproar!
Konoha actually has to sacrifice the life of the Hyuga clan leader's younger brother in exchange for the Raikage's appeasement?
The big joke of slipping the world!

Konoha is the strongest ninja village!
They actually had to be so tolerant that it was almost shameful to sacrifice the interests of the village's ninja clan!
Besides, it was clearly the Hidden Cloud Village that was at fault in this matter, right?
Rizu, just to protect his daughter!

Namikaze Mirai was still leaning casually on the back of his chair. His sitting posture had not changed since he came in.

It seemed that this result had been anticipated.

"My Lord Hokage, when did Konoha become so weak? To use the life of the clan leader's brother in exchange for the forgiveness of a mere Cloud Village?"

Namikaze Mirai's seemingly casual words, falling into Sarutobi Hiruzen's ears, were like an invisible fire, burning his mind and body.

The heads of various ninja clans around were also filled with dissatisfaction.

Wrong!

So damn frustrating!

"This is for Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked reluctant and sighed.

"Hizashi is a ninja who truly carries out the will of fire. He chose this path for the sake of his beliefs."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out, first it was a sneer, then a loud laugh, and finally it was an uncontrollable laughter!
“Hahahahahahaha!!! What a fucking Will of Fire!”

Namikaze Mirai threw her head back and laughed wildly, her shoulders shaking violently uncontrollably.

When this wild laughter fell into the eyes of Uchiha Setsuna and others nearby, their eyes immediately lit up!

Namikaze Mirai's laughter is even more standard than theirs!

"You can make cowardice sound so refreshing, Sarutobi Hiruzen, you are even more shameless than I thought!"

"The peace agreement signed by the Hidden Cloud Village was a cover from the beginning. The purpose was to plot against Konoha's bloodline! As the Hokage, you clearly knew this, but you still wanted to sacrifice the life of the irrelevant Hizashi and beg for the Raikage's forgiveness!"

"Sandaime, you are too weak! Where is the spirit of a ninja hero?"

"If I were the Hokage, I would never be so weak!"

As soon as he said this, Danzo next to him couldn't bear it anymore and glared at him.

"Future, do you know what you are talking about?"
