Chapter 202 Who do you think is the best Hokage?

"Okay, I see. By the way, Bai Fang's son seems to have entered the list of Chunin, right?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded his head, flipped through the documents in his hand, suddenly thought of something, and asked.

"Yes, Hokage-sama. This list was recommended by their captain. Hatake Kakashi participated in the most tragic Mist Ninja battlefield. Although he participated in the battle for a short time. But his outstanding performance in the battle, many of the same level Genin, including the captain who has been promoted to Jonin, respects him very much, so he made an exception and was promoted to Chunin."

Nara Shikajiu didn't know why Hokage-sama suddenly asked this question, but a good habit of a ninja subconsciously answered this question. In his eyes, this was not a problem at all.I had seen the list for the third generation of Hokage a long time ago, but now I ask about it again, I probably forgot.

"Has the list been distributed yet?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi stopped what he was doing, and looked up at Shikaku, with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Eh? No." Lu Jiu replied, the document was handed over to Hokage-sama, and it hasn't been issued yet. He is still quite depressed, because the list has not been confirmed, and it is not easy for him to go to the ninja school to get the files of those graduates, no The reason is that I came to ask for something, so I put it on hold.

"Did you... Hokage-sama forgot? That document is still here with you, and it hasn't been approved yet. Let me get the file."

"Oh? It's here. I was so busy that I forgot. Look at me, I've been really busy these past few days. All the missions in the village need to go through me, and now I have to do this. Sigh ! People are old and lack energy." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"Where, the third generation is now in his prime, and he can still lead our Konoha Village to glory. The victory in the Ninja World War just now is all thanks to you, Naruto-sama!" Although Nara Shikahisa heard Sarutobi's mouth He has a taste for concealment, but he has just been valued by the third Hokage, and he still wants to show his skills.When the third Hokage shows signs of exhaustion, it must be extinguished.Now that he has abdicated, what should he do?The newly appointed Hokage does not necessarily recognize his abilities.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi enjoyed Shikaku's praise very much. He did all these achievements. He didn't need to shirk anything, but he still put on a modest appearance on the surface, and asked a question while talking about the praise: "In your opinion, who are the candidates for the fourth Hokage?"

This sentence stunned Shikaku Nara, who was laughing with him, and he immediately realized that the three generations of Hokage asked him to express his opinion!No wonder the words just said were just for testing.The real purpose here is that the attitude of the Nara family is very important, because the three Inokacho families are very compatible. During the Warring States Period, they were ninja clans who were linked to each other. The families intermarried and the relationship was very harmonious.

Nara Shikahisa is the son of the head of the Nara clan, and he has just been valued by the third Hokage. His words represent the attitude of the three ninjas. Sarutobi Hiruzen should care about this, and it should be.The Hyuga Clan does not make a statement, and the Uchiha can’t hide it. He is only responsible for his own two or three acres of land. The Senju Clan has lost a lot of ninjas, and the clansmen in the clan are all civilians. The above has no right to speak at all.

At this time, the opinion of the Nara clan, which is about the same strength as the original Hatake clan, is very important.Because although the Hatake family had a white tooth, the family power rose rapidly, which greatly widened the distance from the middle ninja.However, the influence of the Zhuludie clan is still almost the same as that of the newly entered wealthy Hatake clan.

Among the three Zhuludie tribes, there is an old guy who is a member of the elders.That is the old patriarch of the Akimichi clan, Akimichi Tekkaze, who was once a teammate of the same team as the third Hokage, and studied under the second Hokage Senshou Feijian.Now he has just stepped down from the position of the patriarch of the Qiu Dao clan, and let his son Qiu Dao Ding take the position.

Qiudao Dingzuo was also the first guy in the first Zhuludie trio to become the patriarch. When he first became the patriarch, Lu Jiu and Haiyi were very envious.The fathers of the two said that in order to train them and let them continue to do things in the village, Ding Zuo was forced by his father to be the patriarch because there was nothing to do.Because Qiudao Fufeng didn't bother to manage the family's affairs, he handed it over to his son.

Speaking of Yamanaka Kaiichi, after he became a Jonin, he was assigned by his family to the Konoha Intelligence Department as a team leader.Shikajiu was trained by the third Hokage as an assistant, and his father also saw the importance Sarutobi Hiruzane attached to his son, so he slowed down the transition of family power.

Nara Shikahisa thought for a long time, while observing the expression of Sandai Hokage, he wondered how to say this.For a while, I was sweating profusely, but I was still speechless.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi also saw his nervousness, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I'm just asking, who in the village is competent! I'm already 40 years old, and you know that the highest age of a ninja is more than 60 years old. , I have almost half a foot into the coffin now, if you have any ideas, just say it."

"This... Hokage-sama, I think the current situation in Konoha is very complicated, and you still need your leadership to build a good village. To lead everyone to prosperity, I think there is no one in the village... that can compare with you, Hokage-sama. people." After Lu Jiu thought for a long time, he said these words.Seeing that there was no change in the expression on Sarutobi's face, he let out a sigh of relief.

If you say a word wrong, I am afraid that the Zhuludie clan will face a new round of reshuffle.Although Shikahisa Nara is only 19 years old now, he knows very well that these powerful people will not surrender their rights easily, just like his old man.Even a small patriarch refused to let it out.

Like the wealthy Hyuga clan, the old patriarch Hyuga gave him the patriarch when Hyuga Hyuzu was only 15 years old.My old man just didn't want to give it to him, and Lu Jiu couldn't help it.The three generations of Hokage in front of me have the same idea as the old man, they just don't want to surrender their rights.

Lu Jiu had heard rumors in the village that if one wanted to become Hokage, one could achieve it not only by force and popularity.Lu Jiu is not optimistic about Bai Fang's promotion, he thinks that Hatake Sakumo's reputation is too false and cannot withstand blows.As long as there is something wrong, you will face the blame of the villagers.

"Hehe, I'm old, I'm old. It doesn't have to be the same as before, I still need you, Lukaku, you little guy to help me do things well!" Sarutobi Hiruzen had a smile on his face when he heard what Lukaku said. He really laughed from the bottom of his heart.In his opinion, as long as his servants of the humerus and the three ninjas of Zhuludie would not betray, then with the remaining two giants not expressing their views, Bai Fang's reputation would be nothing more than vain.

In his eyes, there is no threat at all.In the eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen, only those with real power will threaten him.Just like Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo who have been silent in the village for five years.What happened in Anbu made him a warning.I began to be wary of this original teammate and the most important disciple in my heart.
