"The strongest person in Konoha is Elder Setsuna of the Uchiha clan!"
"Anyone who disagrees can come and practice with me, Uchiha!"
A group of Uchiha, who were already stubborn, shouted excitedly in the venue. A large number of Uchiha even opened their Sharingan. The cold power of their pupils filled the venue, making it difficult for ordinary ninjas to breathe.
Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi looked gloomy when they saw this scene.
Is it really as Uchiha said, if you don't accept Uchiha Setsuna and try to fight him, what's the difference between that and seeking death?
Koharu Utane looked at her two old classmates, and she immediately understood the dilemma they were in. If they could not stand up and oppose, they would have to face Wang Ming's terrifying strength and dared not say a word.
"Cough cough cough!!!" Koharu Utane coughed a few times.
Then she said, "Setsuna's strength is indeed strong, but Setsuna is really too old."
"Huruzen abdicated and gave way to the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze because he was too old and wanted to make way for the younger generation."
"If Setsuna is chosen, then why bother starting the Fifth Generation Election? Hiruzen can just continue in the position."
"How can the Fifth Generation be older than the Third Generation?"
After the ninjas in the circular venue heard what Utatane Koharu said, most of them began to ponder and felt that what Utatane Koharu said made sense. They were really afraid that Uchiha Setsuna would die in office, and then cause chaos in Konoha.
"You damn old woman! The Great Elder is still alive! The four of you Old Biden together are not enough to defeat the Great Elder." Uchiha Tiehuo said angrily.
"The position of Hokage is a position that can only be obtained by gaining everyone's recognition, not by who is the strongest." Seeing that his old friend was replaced by someone else, Mito Menyan immediately came out to help.
As Mito Kado En spoke, the family ninjas of Konoha F4 hidden among the civilian ninjas immediately echoed them, and for a while, waves of noisy voices rang out in the venue.
"Humph! What do you mean everyone approves of it?"
"I just want my own people to continue to be Hokage."
"When the Great Elder runs for election, you say he is too old. If I run for election, will you say I am too young and have no experience?" Uchiha Tiehuo snorted coldly.
After Tiehuo finished speaking, Utatane Koharu actually nodded: "It seems that you still have self-awareness. You are indeed too young."
"You are Kage-level strength, but your Kage-level strength is entirely dependent on the Mangekyo."
"The more you use your Mangekyō Sharingan, the faster it will go blind."
"If a great ninja war breaks out right now and the Hokage is needed on the front lines, how long can you hold out?"
The heads of the major ninja clans and civilian ninjas also nodded. Although Utane Koharu was refusing the Uchiha people to become Hokage, at least the reasons she gave were very reasonable.
Wang Ming sat upright in the meeting room, his hands folded on a wooden cane. Behind him stood hundreds of Uchiha with scarlet eyes emitting strange power. His expression remained calm without any emotional change.
Neither Hyuga Hiashi nominating Wang Ming as Hokage nor Utane Koharu's refusal could affect Wang Ming's mood.
because……
No matter what choice they make, Wang Ming's goal can be achieved.
If Wang Ming becomes the Hokage, then Wang Ming can legitimately send them to the front to fight. If they elect someone else, Wang Ming will also have a way to send him to the front to take the blame.
He would fall into Wang Ming's trap anyway.
In fact, things would be better if Wang Ming didn't become Hokage.
After all, the passion between starting your own business and working for someone else is completely different.
"Okay! There's no need to argue anymore, just vote!"
Mitomon En directly interrupted the argument between Uchiha and Utatane Koharu. He didn't want to make Uchiha angry by the quarrel, so it would be a big deal if he overturned the table on the spot.
For the election!
They are totally fearless.
The ninjas of the four families of Sarutobi, Shimura, Utane, and Mitomon directly occupied one-third of the number of Konoha. Then, the Root Ninjas of Danzo and the Anbu diehards of Sarutobi Hiruzen were basically controlling half of Konoha's votes.
The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen was afraid of convening the Jonin Conference was not because he was afraid that the power of Hokage would slip away from his hands, but because he was afraid of exposing the strength of the four major families.
"The candidates for Fifth Generation this time are Shimura Danzo and Jiraiya."
"Please vote..."
Uchiha Tiehuo's eyes focused, and the three magatama in his pupils immediately turned into a kaleidoscope: "Old Biden! So the position of Hokage has been decided by you all, right?"
"I, Uchiha, wasn't even nominated."
Utatane Koharu said: "Young man, don't talk nonsense. You Uchiha cannot be nominated because you don't meet the requirements to become Hokage."
Uchiha Tiehuo: %……&**()
The Uchiha also cursed loudly, each of them was very emotional. Wang Ming coughed lightly, and then said: "Okay!"
"I am indeed too old to be the Hokage."
"Besides... I can't afford to be the successor of that monkey."
Then Wang Ming said: "Since it is an election, how can there be only two people?"
"The first generation, Senju Hashirama!"
"The Nidaime is Senju Tobirama, the younger brother of Senju Hashirama."
"The third generation monkey is a student of the first and second generations."
"The Yondaime is the Monkey's disciple-grandson."
"According to this rule, the position of Hokage should only be passed down to the Hokage line."
A trace of unnaturalness flashed across the faces of the civilian ninjas, and they looked a little dazed, while the ninjas from the big families looked numb.
All the ninjas in Konoha Village, if they don't enter a special institution, must have graduated from the Ninja School. They have listened to the teachers of the Ninja School since they were young, so everyone has a dream of becoming a Hokage.
Sarutobi Hiruzen deliberately wove a dream for them, a dream that would never come true.
Ninjas from large families would be told about the darkness of Konoha by their elders, and they knew from a very young age that becoming Hokage was just a dream.
Civilian ninjas cannot become Hokage, they will only think that it is because of their own lack of strength and poor talent.
I had no idea how scarce my resources were.
Even the jonin of Konoha, because of their education since childhood, the underlying logic of their thinking prevents them from thinking that the position of Hokage is already predetermined.
Or,
They subconsciously don't want to think about it.
Konoha F4 knew that Wang Ming was trying to sow discord between them and Konoha, but they did not refute.
They don't have the courage to confront Wang Ming directly.
"Since this is the Hokage's rule, we should naturally follow it."
"I recommend Orochimaru. He said he can open the genetic lock, and everyone can be like a dragon, break out of the ninja world and head towards the sea of stars."
The venue was silent.
They didn't understand what the gene lock was, but they knew who Orochimaru was.
After the death of the Yondaime, the person who should have become Hokage was Orochimaru.
Strength! Qualifications, achievements! Connections, everything is in place.
But just when everyone thought that Orochimaru's ascension to power was a sure thing, he suddenly defected.
The Uchiha looked at Danzo Shimura in the center of the venue with hatred. They saw the Sharingan on Danzo's body on the night of the genocide.
However, Uchiha suppressed his anger and did not lose his temper on the spot.
They were afraid that their recklessness would provoke another war between Uchiha and Konoha. They themselves were not afraid of death, but they were afraid that the elderly elder would die in the battle.
The strongest Uchiha died in battle, and the family members in the family might not be able to be saved.
The Uchiha people who haven't opened their eyes are naive, and those with one or two magatama have unstable personalities and are easily excited. But when they see the three-magatama Sharingan and their own strength reaches the level of Jonin, their emotions will not be so easily affected by the Sharingan.
A trace of dejection and guilt flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, but he immediately suppressed the emotion.
"Is Setsuna trying to disgust me on purpose?"
"Great Elder! You haven't left the Uchiha clan for a long time. Have you forgotten that Orochimaru defected a few years ago because he used ninjas from the same village for experiments?" Uchiha Yashiro reminded Wang Mingdao.
Wang Ming nodded, with a look of sudden realization on his face: "Defected?"
"How could such a great ninja defect?"
"In that case, I recommend Qianju Shengshu."
"Konoha was founded by the Senju, and the first and second generations were also from the Senju."
"When the Sandaime was young, Rope Tree was still young, so he asked the monkey to help look after the family business. After so many years, Rope Tree should have grown up. I think he has also awakened Hashirama's Wood Release!" (End of this chapter)
