The sky was clear and the weather was bad.

Konoha

Top of the Hokage Building

It seems that the sky also feels sad. The sky that was clear yesterday is now like a dark cloud covering the city...

The densely packed Konoha ninjas dressed in black divided into two squares and bowed their heads in silence, solemn and solemn...

With the Hokage Building as the center, almost all the Konoha civilians looked at this side with a mournful look.

"Today's condolences are to commemorate the third generation Hokage who sacrificed for the village, as well as other victims..."

In front of the mourning hall, Hokage advisor Mitomon En read the eulogy in a heavy tone.

Next to him is Konoha high-level advisor Utatane Koharu.

"Sasuke, why do you think Grandpa Hokage died..."

In the crowd, Naruto stood beside Sasuke with a face full of grief.

"Wuwuwu... Grandpa..." Konohamaru in front of him burst into tears...

"This is a ninja, risking his life for a mission or to protect something.

For the third generation, sacrificing for the village is the greatest affirmation of his being a Hokage!

And we were the same at that time, weren't we?

It's just that we didn't die, this is the survivor bias..."

Sasuke looked at the portrait of the third generation absent-mindedly, and glanced at the Hokage consultant on the stage calmly.

For these two old guys who lived from the first generation to Boruto, Sasuke couldn't help but admire their longevity...

But this time may be different!

"Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura, it's our turn to present flowers..."

Suddenly, Kakashi interrupted the three people's thoughts.

As the three people lined up to present flowers one by one, a drizzle began to fall from the sky...

Soon, the memorial ceremony came to an end after the flowers were presented.

Sasuke and the other two followed Kakashi down the roof of the Hokage Building, and at that moment, the sun shone brightly on the ground...

It instantly dispelled most of the heavy mood of the crowd...

"Okay, let's stop here today.

You all performed very well this time!!

Naruto and Sakura are free to move around, Sasuke, come with me..."

Kakashi nodded to the three of them with satisfaction, and finally looked at Sasuke and greeted him.

"Ah? Why is it Sasuke, Sasuke again...

Teacher Kakashi, you are too partial.

Are you going to teach Sasuke some powerful ninjutsu again!!"

Naruto immediately quit when he saw this, and stared at Kakashi with fiery eyes, feeling as aggrieved as he could be.

Sasuke has surpassed him so much, why is it still Sasuke, Sasuke...

"Stupid, this is not a ninjutsu...

It's some routine questions about promotion to Chunin."

Kakashi touched his forehead and said helplessly, causing Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke to change their faces at the same time.

"Teacher, what do you mean..."

Since it was about upgrading system permissions, Sasuke couldn't hold back his excitement and asked.

He originally thought that he would have to wait until the fifth generation took office before starting, but he didn't expect it to come so soon...

Most importantly, his efforts seemed to be not in vain!

There is no such part in the plot...

"Well, but there is still a question that needs your answer."

Kakashi's eyes flashed with a strange color, and he gave a meaningful answer and led the way out.

Sasuke's heart moved and he naturally followed immediately...

"Sakura, what Kakashi teacher just said was Chunin~~

Sasuke is going to be promoted to Chunin!!"

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Naruto trembled and questioned in a stunned voice.

How is this possible? ?

"Naruto, it seems that we have to go back to prepare gifts..."

Sakura nodded fiercely, her eyes curved into a crescent shape, and she was proud for a while...

Naruto...

A corner of Konoha

Kakashi and Sasuke stood opposite each other.

"Sasuke, although the Chunin Exam was interrupted due to an unexpected situation.

However, your performance has been recognized by many Chunins and Jonins!

And you and Naruto captured the Sand Village Jinchuriki in this invasion, which can be said to be an outstanding achievement.

According to the normal process, there will be no problem for you to be promoted to Chunin this time...

However, the higher-ups have a question for you now."

Kakashi deliberately stopped and looked at Sasuke when he said this, and continued when he saw that Sasuke just frowned slightly.

"Sasuke, why do you know Orochimaru's summoning technique..."

In the last sentence, Sasuke clearly heard the worry and solemnity in Kakashi's tone.

But Sasuke was secretly relieved about this...

I thought it was some other problem, just this? ?

"Orochimaru's summoning technique? Of course, Orochimaru gave it to me..."

Under Kakashi's surprised eyes, Sasuke gave

He gave a look of contempt and said it was fair and square.

Suddenly, this answer made Kakashi a little confused...

That was Orochimaru who launched the invasion of Konoha and killed the Third Hokage!

How can he explain this to his superiors? ?

"Don't look at me like that, it's not my initiative.

You come to ask me, then you know that the big snake wanted to eat me at first, but I turned it over later...

If I am not promoted to Chunin because of this, then it is Konoha's problem, not my problem.

Orochimaru, his purpose is to let me enjoy his power and defect to him.

But I will use practical actions to prove that he is stealing chickens and losing rice...

My goal is to become Hokage, how can I defect to Konoha!!"

Facing Kakashi's questioning, Sasuke held his head high and showed his heart with an attitude of not fearing ghosts knocking on the door.

This problem has been considered when he performed the summoning technique...

Instead of beating around the bush, it is better to blame Orochimaru openly.

No matter how he explains this situation, he has already been inextricably linked with Orochimaru!

So, why bother to quibble and cover up...

"Ahem...

Okay, I understand this matter!

Then let the new Hokage decide..."

Kakashi's scalp tingled when Sasuke looked at him like an idiot, and he smiled awkwardly and ran away...

Sasuke was right, this is not his problem!

If he really had any ideas, would he have fought so hard in this invasion? ?

It's good not to take advantage of the situation...

"Tsk... I didn't expect that we still have to wait until the fifth generation takes office..."

Looking at Kakashi's back as he left, Sasuke was speechless. He thought he had to unlock new permissions in advance.

But on second thought, he was the only one who knew who the fifth generation was!

Kakashi and the others could understand what he did...

Maybe, they thought the fifth generation would be chosen in the next few days!

At the same time

On a rooftop

"Jiraiya, you know the current situation in the village...

Although Konoha has sacrificed a lot, we have also captured the One-Tail Jinchuriki of Sunagakure.

Now the more troublesome thing is actually the Sunagakure..."

"But we must also confirm the fifth generation candidate as soon as possible, whether it is to negotiate with Sunagakure, stabilize people's hearts or deter other ninja villages, we need a new Hokage.

A leader with strong strength and deterrence, you who are known as one of the three ninjas of Konoha are the best choice!

So, you can't escape anymore..."

Mitokado En and Utatane Koharu approached Jiraiya and began to lobby him, with a clear purpose of letting him succeed as Hokage.

"I don't want such troublesome things...

Three ninjas, isn't there one more person?"

Jiraiya still refused directly with that unruly expression, with a hint of expectation and reminiscence in his eyes.

Tsunade, long time no see...
