After a while,
Kakashi, Sasuke, and Orochimaru escorted some people over, including men and women, old and young, all with bleak faces.
They escorted them to the ruins of Hokage Building and called Zabuza and Bai to guard them.
"Grandpa!" At this moment, a little boy suddenly escaped from the crowd, ran to the body of Hiruzen Sarutobi, fell to his knees and cried loudly.
"Grandpa!" The little boy looked at his grandfather with his eyes tightly closed. He immediately knew that his grandfather was dead. He grabbed Hiruzen Sarutobi's right hand and shook it violently. However, it did not wake up his grandfather, but shook his arm off.
"Grandpa!" The little boy held Grandpa's arm in his hand. He was at a loss and cried even harder!
"Do you want me to catch that little baby?" Zabuza looked at Kakashi and asked. Now, their faction is temporarily led by Kakashi.
Looking at Konohamaru who was crying miserably, Kakashi shook his head and said, "Forget it, just be careful and don't let him go. As for Hiruzen Sarutobi's body, we can assemble it later."
Zabuza heard this, nodded and looked at Bai.
Bai met Zabuza's eyes and stood behind Konohamaru without saying a word.
"Kakashi, come here!" At this moment, Hyuga Hiashi called Kakashi's name.
Kakashi went over and asked, "Sir Hiashi, what's the matter?"
"Let's go, Lord Hokage is dead, let's get together and discuss some things." Hiashi looked at Kakashi and pointed at the ninja family on his side.
"Yes!" Kakashi nodded and followed Hyuga Hiashi and other family leaders to a teahouse nearby, which was used as a temporary meeting room.
"Let's go too." Kai saw their actions and said to Mitaraishi Anko next to him.
After hearing this, Mitaraishi Anko immediately followed Kai. No one stopped Kai and Mitaraishi Anko from joining. They were qualified to participate in such a meeting.
A large private room was chosen, and everyone sat on the tatami. For a moment, there was some silence, with only the white mist of tea rising.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi is dead. Konoha cannot live without Hokage. Therefore, this time the parliament will simply recommend the next Hokage candidate. I don't know if you have any good candidates to recommend." In the end, it was Hiashi who broke the silence.
Recommend the next Hokage?!
Yes, Hiruzen Sarutobi was killed by Naruto. Of course Konoha must recommend Hokage, otherwise, other Ninja Village will inevitably invade Konoha.
A group of dragons cannot be leaderless.
Kai thought in his heart, then something flashed in his mind and he said, "The next Hokage I want to recommend is Tsunade."
Hearing this name, everyone nodded. They had no objection to Tsunade being the next Hokage. At that time, Naruto's father Minato Namikaze died of Nine-Tails' Rampage After, everyone also preferred Tsunade to become the fifth Hokage, but Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped forward and took over Hokage Position, until now.
Tsunade also disappeared after he took over Hokage Position.
Although everyone knows that Tsunade is missing.
"Tsunade is indeed qualified to become the next Hokage, but, Kai, can you find Tsunade?" Hiashi first nodded in agreement with Kai's proposal, and then threw a huge problem to Kai.
"I..." Kai was immediately speechless.
Because Hiashi is a difficult problem that he cannot solve. Tsunade is hiding and no one can find it.
"Let's propose again." Hiashi finished speaking, and then set his sights on Shikaku Nara.
Shikaku Nara got the look from Hiashi, and immediately stood up and said, "I have a candidate who is strong enough to take the position of Hokage, and with Konoha, he can shock other Ninja Village. With him, we, Konoha, no longer have to worry about foreign invasion."
"Oh, there is such a powerful person, tell me, tell me, I, Choza, applaud him with all my hands to become the next Hokage candidate." Choza immediately agreed.
Regardless of Choza's agreement, Shikaku glanced at everyone around him before spitting out a name: "Naruto Uzumaki!"
"Naruto Uzumaki!" Kai and Mitaraishi Anko were instantly surprised.
Needless to say, even Kakashi was surprised. You know, Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi was beaten to death by Naruto. He succeeded Hokage. Will the lower-level ninjas and civilians agree?
By then, so many opposing voices will appear, and it will not be suitable to stabilize Konoha at all.
But as soon as he thought about it, Kakashi suddenly realized. Based on the expressions of these ninja family representatives Hiashi Shikaku Choza, Kakashi understood that this meeting was just a cover. They might have decided to nominate Naruto as the next Hokage.
Kakashi also understands the reason. These people, the children of the family, are all good friends with Naruto.
This reason is enough for them to jointly recommend Naruto as the candidate for Hokage.
Because among them, if any family sits on Hokage Position, they will not trust each other, and worry that during their reign, they will seek personal gain for the family and frame other families.
For example Sarutobi Clan.
But Naruto is different. He is a loner and agrees with their ideal candidate.
And Tsunade also agreed!
But what makes Naruto better than Tsunade is that Naruto is good friends with all the children of the family. Their friendship is solid and they will not do anything to harm these ninja families.
"Yes, yes, Naruto is the successor to Hokage, I very much agree."
"I agree too."
"I agree too!"
For a moment, upon hearing the selection of Shikaku, almost everyone in the tea room nodded in agreement.
"But, Naruto is only twelve years old!" Kai knew how to refute Naruto as Hokage, he murmured.
"What's wrong with being twelve years old? You are twelve years old, can you have the strength of Naruto?" Shikaku asked on the spot.
"I..." Kai was speechless after being asked. Not to mention that he was twelve years old. Even now, he couldn't beat Naruto. His youth was lost in the hands of Naruto.
"Okay, now, let's raise our hands. Those who agree with Naruto as the next Hokage should raise their hands. Those who disagree don't need to raise their hands." Shikaku said.
"Shua, shua, shua..." For a moment, all the heads of the major ninja families raised their hands in unison, showing their interests were related.
Kakashi was startled and raised his hand. Naruto is also good as Hokage.
Mitaraishi Anko also raised his hand.
Seeing everyone raising their hands, Kai had no choice but to raise his hands. Naruto became Hokage. He actually had no objection. He just felt that Naruto was too young and might not be able to handle many things.
"Okay, the vote is unanimous. When Naruto comes back, Kakashi can ask his wishes first." Hiashi said to Kakashi.
"Yes, Master Hiashi." Kakashi nodded.
"By the way, where did Naruto go?"
"He seems to be looking for Danzo." Kakashi thought for a while and said.
Danzo, Danzo is in danger.
"Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi." Shikaku immediately chewed on these two names in his heart, thinking about what to do when the time comes to make Naruto's opposition smaller.
