Chapter 360: Jonin's Vote of Confidence
Land of Fire.
Konoha.
The third training ground.
After a morning of running-in training, Kanp found a sunny grassland, took off his mask and lay on the grass with his legs crossed to read a book.
The book is borrowed from the Anbus library, and it is the basic summary about Fuinjutsu written by Sandaime. Kanp read it sentence by sentence. Most recently, he has been collecting the Wind Release Ninjutsu on the Ninjutsu Scroll, so Fuinjutsu is just a simple dabbling.
About half an hour later, Wild Cat suddenly flickered from the distance: Husky, you are so leisurely.
Gathering? Kanp put down his book and yawned as he looked at the blue sky and the warm sun.
Sure enough, reading in the sun makes it easy to fall asleep
Its not a gathering, its Hokage-sama, they are back!
Wild Cat crouched on the ground and said gossipingly, Husky, who do you think will succeed as the Yondaime Hokage?
Who do you hope to be? Kanp stretched his waist on the grass and couldnt help but yawned again.
Of course its the Yellow Flash!
Wild Cat said excitedly, Minato is a handsome, good-natured and strong man, he is simply the perfect husband!
Licking dog.
Lying on the grass, Kanp gave her a sideways glance, snorted twice and said nothing.
Its a pity
As soon as Wild Cat was excited, she bacame depressed. -sama is already married.
Married? Kanp was startled and sat up in shock.
No When did this happen?
Why didnt Minato invite me to his wedding?
We have known each other for several years
Wild Cat then said: I heard that he got married during the Third Shinobi World War. Because it was wartime, the wedding banquet was not held in a big way. They just invited some friends from the same period.
Kanp sighed and continued lying on the grass again, Forget it, I dont hold any grudges.
Wild Cat, I want to ask you something. Kanp suddenly said seriously.
"
"
What? Wild Cat asked.
About the Hokage Guard Platoon! Kanp was about to ask in detail, but Wild Cat suddenly exploded.
Husky, do you also want to join the Yondaimes Hokage Guard Platoon too? Wild Cat looked at him warily.
Whats wrong? Kanp was startled by Wild Cats gaze.
Because Minato-sama has great hopes of succeeding the Yondaime Hokages position, many people in Anbu intend to join the Hokage Guard Platoon!
Wild Cat said, and then added, Most of them are single women.
But isnt he married? Kanp asked in surprise.
Although its impossible to be a wife, its okay to be a lover! Wild Cat said with convictions.
In the country of Kanps previous life, a lover refers to the person who loves each other, generally refers to the wife, but sometimes, a lover refers to the person loved outside the marriage, so in short, a lover is simply a mistress
So in Naruto World, the meaning of lover is self-evident.
I didnt expect your heart to be so wild
Kanp looked Wild Cat with a strange expression.
Wild Cat is still immersed in the word lover, fantasizing about being with Minato, sometimes trembling and looking shy.
Kanp couldnt stand the stimulation, so he turned around on the grass a few times to keep a distance from the nympho.
At the same time.
Hokage Tower.
After Hiruzen and the others returned, Koharu, Homura, and Danzo left separately. Only the Jonin Commander, Shikaku followed Hiruzen to the office.
Shikaku, I will trouble you to preside over the next Jonins vote of confidence. Hiruzen said solemnly.
Understood. Shikaku nodded in response, but secretly thought it was troublesome.
Hiruzen was about to say a few more words, when a voice suddenly came from outside: Hokage-sama, the captain of the Military Police Force is here.
Let him come in. Hiruzen said, and then signaled Shikaku to go down and do something.
Then Ill take my leave first, Hokage-sama.
After Shikaku left, Fugaku came in.
Sandaime-sama.
Fugaku then said straight to the point, Has the result of the higher-ups joint screening come out?
Hiruzen did not answer directly, but took out his own pipe, lit it and took two puffs before slowly speaks: Its a pity, Clan Head Fugaku, your talent is not recognized by everyone.
Fugaku said solemnly: Then who passed the higher-ups joint screening in the end?
Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato. Hiruzen said as he spits out some smokes.
Fugaku looked straight at Hiruzen, and then spoke again after a few moments: Is this your choice, Sandaime-sama?
Hiruzen shook his head and said: This is the choice of all higher-ups! Clan Head Fugaku, Minato is the one who guides the end of the Third Shinobi World War
Since it is the choice of all higher-ups, I have nothing to say, goodbye.
Fugaku suppressed the anger in his heart, and rudely interrupted Hiruzens explanation. And then he turned around and left.
Hiruzen sighed and didnt hold back.
Fugaku returned home, depressed all the way. Before entering the door, several elders of the clan flashed out and blocked him.
Clan Head-sama, what is the result?
Have you been elected as the Yondaime Hokage?
Several elders looked at Fugaku with glowing eyes.
Fugaku was furious, but he couldnt show it outside, and finally just shook his head: They chose the Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato.
What?
Damn it! How could this be?
Are all we clansmen we sacrificed died in vain?!
Several elders were very dissatisfied. In the Third Shinobi World War, Uchiha Clan had sacrificed that many of their clansmen. After that, the Military Police Force also took turns to guard Konoha 24 hours a day. Isnt it all for Yondaime Hokages position?
But in the end, all of this turned out to be the moon reflected in the water. How could they accept it?
Lets go in and talk about it.
Fugaku kept taking deep breaths, and led the elders to the reception room at home. He then asked his wife, Uchiha Mikoto, to serve fragrant tea before he slowly said, This is the end of the matter. The Yondaime Hokages position has been settled, and you elders shouldnt get entangled with it anymore.
Clan Head-sama, how can we just forget it?
Isnt there still the Jonins vote of confidence? We can let our clans Jonin
Shut up! Fugaku frowned tightly, and stopped the elder who only wanted to cause trouble.
At this time, Fugakus mood is very complicated. Like the elders in front of him, he is full of disappointment and anger towards Konohas higher-ups, but he is the only one who cant express it. Once he shows this emotion, the whole Uchiha Clan will inevitably have the same hatred, and unanimously chose to oppose Konohas higher-ups!
At that time, as long as there is a little spark, the pile of dry wood of the Uchiha clan will erupt into a prairie fire!
If the clan and Konoha split, what good it would be for the Uchiha Clan?
Thinking about these, Fugaku suppressed all his dissatisfaction and anger towards Konohas higher-ups, and then said while pretended to be calm: The Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato is a civilian Shinobi, and he is not entangled with any clan, so he wont harm our interests. Moreover, his wife, Kushina and Mikoto are good friends. From this point of view, Minato being on top is still somewhat beneficial to our Uchiha Clan.
But even so, you The elders wanted to say something more, but Fugaku didnt want to listen anymore. And if he lets them continue, the anger that he finally suppressed might burst out.
This is the end of this matter. Whether it is the village or the clan, we all need peace. Just let it go! Fugaku said to the guests.
Yes. The elders nodded unwillingly and retreated.
When the elders left, Fugaku drank the tea in one gulp. After sitting for a while, he seemed unable to suppress the anger in his heart anymore, and fiercely threw the tea cup in his hand to the ground!
Fugaku Mikoto walked into the reception room with a worried expression on her face.
Im fine.
Fugaku forced a smile and said, Where is Itachi?
Shisui took him out for training.
Mikoto said, Fugaku Is it about the Yondaime Hokage?
Fugaku nodded: The villages higher-ups chose Namikaze Minato.
Then what are you going to do? Mikoto looked at him nervously.
Fugaku shook his head and said: I dont plan to do anything, its fine.
At the end of his words, Fugaku gritted his teeth again, obviously unwilling.
Mikoto sighed, not knowing how to persuade him, and she finally closed the door, walked over and held him in her arms (A/N: 5000 words omitted here)
At the same time.
After Shikaku left the Hokages Office, two Shinobi, one Anbu and one Root, followed behind him, monitoring each other to prevent cheating.
Shikaku didnt care, and took them directly onto the rooftop, and then sent a signal to summon all the Jonin.
Soon, Jonin appeared one after another.
Commander!
Commander Nara.
It seems that the last round of vote of confidence has taken place.
Its really rare that everyone can gather together.
Shikaku felt a headache when he saw these people, and said: Okay, stop talking nonsense. Well immediately carry out the vote of confidence for the Yondaime Hokage, Namikaze Minato! Leave immediately after you finished voting, and dont affect the others.
After saying that, Shikaku took out a basket from a sealing scroll, and the Anbu and Roots Shinobi who followed him also took out the identity information registration form and voting slips.
Yes, yes, Commander-sama is the strongest! A Jonin stepped forward, first registered his identity information at the Roots Shinobi, and then went to Anbus Shinobi to take a slip and wrote down whether he trusted it or not, then fold it up and put it in Shikakus basket.
Commander-sama, its really casual. It is obviously such an important vote of confidence, but it is just packed in a basket. Jonin said jokingly.
Shikaku scratched his head with the basket in his hand and said: Thats why I dont want to be the Commander at all.
Then, Ill take my leave first, Commander-sama.
After saying that, the Jonin, who was present put his little slip into Shikakus basket, left immediately. At the same time, a Jonin came from a distance to participate in the vote of confidence. Ohashi, Shikuro and the others also rushed to vote one after another, and then left.
In Hokages Office, Hiruzen opened the window, looked up and vaguely saw blurred black shadows flickering one after another.
Although Konoha suffered heavy losses in the Third Shinobi World War, there are still hundreds of Jonin who survived on various battlefields!
And these hundreds of people will be the backbone of Konoha in the next ten years. When the next generation Shinobi grows up, Konoha will recover again!
When the tree leaves dance, one shall find flames. The fires shadow will illuminate the village, and once again, tree leaves shall bud anew.
At this moment, Hiruzens understanding of the Will of Fire couldnt help but deepened by a lot!
