Hikaru Hokage

Also, what are the people from the Sarutobi clan who are responsible for protecting Itachi doing?

"Mikoto..."

As the quilt was lifted, Kushina immediately saw the source of the strange smell she just smelled.

There seems to be wet marks in the middle of Mikoto's skirt...

And why are the sides cracked?

Did you fight with anyone?

"Where is Orochimaru now? Didn't Tsunade-sama stop him?"

After hearing that Uchiha Itachi was captured by Orochimaru, Uchiha Mikoto no longer cared about the dirt and smell on her body.

She was holding Kushina's shoulders tightly, anxiously asking about Itachi's condition.

"Don't worry, Mikoto. Sister Tsunade has sent people to track Orochimaru's whereabouts. Once we find Orochimaru's whereabouts, I will help you rescue Itachi."

Kushina stared at the wet marks on Uchiha Mikoto's skirt while comforting her best friend in front of her.

Did Mikoto wet the bed while sleeping too?

But why does it smell so special...

There is a strange floral scent.

"you……"

Is Kushina strong enough to defeat Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas?

Although she was very touched by Kushina's help, Uchiha Mikoto did not dare to put all her hope in Kushina.

if……

Uchiha Mikoto quickly thought of the boy who held her and blocked Uchiha Shisui's Susanoo with just one hand.

-

Outside the operating room of Konoha Hospital.

"Is Kakashi supposed to be okay?"

"It's okay. It's just a fatal injury. As long as the internal organs are not lost, I can..."

Tsunade said as she recalled some not so good memories.

"But I see that his mental state is not very good."

"Because it was Obito who hurt him like this."

"With soil?"

Tsunade thought for a long time before remembering the Uchiha boy who had half of his body crushed by a big rock.

"why?"

Are they not companions?

Moreover, Tsunade remembered that Hino Hikaru asked her to study those White Zetsu in order to completely cure the Uchiha boy's hands and feet.

Logically speaking, they should have a good relationship, but why now...

"Maybe it's because the ten years I gave him is too long and he can't bear it, or maybe it's because he's been bewitched, or maybe it's because..."

Does Nohara Rin like me or not?

Hino Hikaru shook his head.

"Anyway, for reasons that are boring to us, he is now on the side of the enemy."

"Enemy? Do you mean the mysterious person who made Orochimaru suddenly become stronger?"

This time, Orochimaru defeated the Mizukage and directly killed the Hokage with one second, which can be said to have stolen all the limelight in the ninja world.

Tsunade didn't expect that even the Mizukage would end up after she left there.

And I haven’t been able to beat it yet.

"Well, speaking of which, Mizukage should still be alive, right?"

"Shizune didn't miss, Mizukage is out of danger."

In the past few years, I have traveled around with Shizune. Because of his fear of blood, most of the time when dealing with patients, Shizune was in charge.

So Tsunade didn't have much to worry about Shizune's medical skills.

"It's just that the trauma is too serious. I may have to live with a bandage in the future."

Just because it concerned Mizukage, Tsunade just took a look.

Forget it, it calmed the hearts of those Kirigakure Village ninjas.

"If he dies, Konoha will indeed bear a big responsibility this time. Orochimaru..."

Thinking of what Orochimaru said to her when he left, Tsunade wanted to punch him in the face.

After killing all the old men, why would you give up the Hokage to her?

This snake didn't even know how to look in the mirror.

"Tsunade-sama, the village is planning to hold an emergency meeting."

"Emergency meeting? At this time? The Sandaime's body isn't even there yet..."

Looking at the ANBU ninja who suddenly appeared outside the hospital corridor, Tsunade couldn't help but frown.

Who is so impatient? The third Hokage died in the morning, and someone wanted to hold a meeting to discuss Hokage in the afternoon?

"Go tell Shikaku, Mako and the clan leaders in the village that no one is allowed to attend some bullshit emergency meeting before the Third Hokage's funeral!"

"……Yes!"

Looking at the furious Tsunade, the ANBU ninja who came to report the news could only nod in agreement.

"Really, after so many things happened today, there are still people who are trying to trouble me. Do you really think I have no temper?"

Tsunade punched the doorpost next to her.

Cracks spread all over the doorpost in an instant.

"Hokage..."

If it weren't for a certain bratty brother, Tsunade really wouldn't want to be one.

"No, I have to be the Hokage!"

Maybe it was because of the second grandfather's previous doubts, maybe because of his brother who died with the dream of being Hokage, maybe because of Orochimaru's ridicule, in short, Tsunade's belief in becoming Hokage is now extremely firm.

-

In the Daimyo Pavilion where the Daimyo of the Land of Fire stayed.

"Danzo, did you say you wanted to hold an emergency meeting?"

The Fire Country Daimyo, who had almost wet his pants after being frightened by Uchiha Fugaku, had now changed his outfit.

I saw him holding his throat, holding a fan, raising his gaze, and using his lower eyes to scan the Fire Country officials in front of him and Danzo and others sitting on the other side.

Phew, after all the trouble today, he felt a little scared when he looked at these ninjas.

"That's right, Lord Daimyo, something big like this has happened in Konoha Village. Sarutobi Hiruzen, the shadow of the village, died suddenly, and Mizukage was seriously injured and dying in Konoha. In addition, the Third Ninja War The aftermath has not subsided, and all the major ninja villages are now eyeing Konoha. If we are not careful, we, Konoha and the Fire Nation, will be in danger of being destroyed!"

"This……"

Seeing Danzo speaking so loudly and describing the current situation so critically, the daimyo couldn't help but cover his face with a folding fan, and then tilted his head back in fear.

"So, Lord Daimyo, we must now elect a new Hokage!"

"Oh, it turns out that I want to choose someone to be Hokage."

The daimyo patted his chest with a folding fan.

Really, don't you just want to be Hokage, why do you say it so loudly?

"But why are no other ninjas from Konoha here except you?"

The daimyo's officials noticed the ninja's absence.

Except for a few masked Anbu, the only Konoha ninjas present seemed to be Danzo Shimura, Koharu Koharu and Mito Kadoen.

"Your Excellency Daimyo, the village is in complete chaos right now, that's why other ninjas didn't arrive."

Although Koharu went to bed and didn't know why none of the Jonin who had been informed came, but maybe this was not a bad thing at the moment.

"OK then."

The daimyo glanced at Koharu, who had gone to bed, and then at Danzo Shimura, who was "eagerly eyeing" him.

Really, these people look worse than that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen. If one of them becomes Hokage, Konoha won't end like this, right?

"How about letting Jiraiya or Tsunade be the next Hokage? The second Hokage's disciple Sarutobi Hiruzen is the third Hokage, so according to convention, Sarutobi Hiruzen's disciple should be the next Hokage."

"It is precisely because of the stupidity and naivety of the Third Hokage that Konoha suffered such a shame and humiliation today. As a Sannin and a disciple of Hokage, Orochimaru actually killed his master! The rebellious ninja Shisui of the Uchiha clan was almost destroyed. The whole of Konoha..."

Danzo complained passionately about Hiruzen Sarutobi's recent actions.

"Now if someone from the Third Hokage faction becomes the next Hokage, Konoha will only get worse!"

"Then...who is suitable?"

"What is needed now is a unique Hokage who can deal with the current chaotic state of the village, bring changes to the ninja world, and implement the iron rules of ninjas!"

Danzo suddenly stood up from his seat and looked down at everyone.

"That's me!"

"you?"

I knew this guy with the wrinkles on his face must have an ulterior motive for talking so much.

really……

Looking at Shimura Danzo who suddenly stood up, the daimyo fell into thinking.

boom!

However, at this moment, the door of the Daming Pavilion conference room was suddenly opened.

"Who?"

Seeing that he was one step away from ascending to the position of Hokage, but was suddenly interrupted by an outsider, Danzo felt even more annoyed now.

“How does a prisoner qualify for an emergency meeting?”

The person who walked in from the door was naturally Tsunade who stopped the Konoha jounin.

"Besides, it's unheard of for two of Konoha's advisors to accompany a prisoner around."

"Tsunade?"

After sleeping, both Koharu and Mito Kaden showed surprised expressions.

None of them expected that Tsunade, who was just a little girl before, would become so decisive now.

"prisoner?"

The daimyo looked at Danzo Shimura on the side with a strange expression, then thought of something, immediately stood up from his seat, hid behind his guard, and tried to stay as far away from the ninjas of Konoha as possible.

"Your Excellency Daimyo, that's not what happened, I..."

Danzo hurriedly wanted to explain, but the ninjas brought by Tsunade had already surrounded him.

"Duanzo, it was my fault to let you escape from prison. Now come back with us!"

"Rizu? You actually..."

The ninja who took the lead to surround Danzo was Hinata Hiashi, the leader of the Hyuga clan.

"If you want to be a rebel, just resist."

Tsunade glanced at the root members standing behind Danzo who wanted to stand up and resist.

"Humph! I admit defeat!"

Just one step away, just one step away!

Danzo glared angrily at Tsunade in front of him, and then signaled the root ninja behind him to give up resistance temporarily.
