I'm out of here

"We have no objection to Lady Tsunade becoming the fifth Hokage, but may I ask, Advisor, who exactly is this Kanami?"

"Yeah, how did this random guy suddenly appear?"

"Was the election too hasty?"

"Didn't you call him a hero? How come nobody knows?"

Feudal Lord also had a sullen face, and he even put away his Small Fan, looking like he could explode at any moment.

Caught between the villagers and the Feudal Lord, Utatane Koharu was in a terrible predicament.

Standing on the edge of the Hokage Building rooftop, looking down, I felt a sense of disorientation, and even had the urge to jump.

She couldn't say that Kanami was Chi, at least not at this point in time.

The public's call for Chi is currently at its peak, and once the other side knows that Kanami is Chi...

Given the tie, it's hard to guarantee that another farce won't occur.

The relationship between the Feudal Lord and Tsunade was already established; it had been agreed that Tsunade would become the Fifth Hokage, and this was merely a formality.

This mess happened.

'I should have cast all Jiraiya votes for Tsunade instead of Jiraiya!'

She felt both resentful and helpless.

Who could have predicted this would happen?

"Advisor Utatane!"

"Advisor?"

The Feudal Lord and the voices below pressed down together.

Utatane Koharu's face was covered in wrinkles, and her mind was a complete mess.

Some of the people downstairs suddenly showed expressions of reminiscence.

"Speaking of Kanami, does anyone else find the name familiar?"

"You know, I think so too, but I can't quite remember where I've heard it before..."

"Oh!" Suddenly, a man's eyes lit up. "I remember now! The Chunin exam! The boy who threw the first match was Kanami!"

His reminder brought back vivid memories for many who had attended the third session of the Chunin exam.

A red-haired boy suddenly crashes into a wall, admitting defeat.

"Red hair? And around the same age, could Kanami be... Chi?"

As soon as that voice rang out, the shouts from the crowd instantly ceased.

"Very likely! Otherwise, why wouldn't the advisor publicly disclose a man named Kanami!"

Utatane Koharu was on the roof of the Hokage Building, felt uneasy after hearing everyone's analysis. If they really figured it out, it must be a conspiracy. She might as well take the initiative.

Her gaze sharpened. "Kanami is Chi."

Her voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

The villagers, who had previously thought it impossible, widened their eyes in disbelief. This was the advisor's own confirmation, which proved that Kanami really was Chi!

"..." Feudal Lord remained silent, his fists clenching and unclenching.

He said with a stern face, "Although you shouted with great force, who the hell is Chi?!"

He considered himself much gentler than the other Feudal Lord from other countries, but he still couldn't help but lose his temper.

He was confused by Kanami, and then he got confused by the whole Chi.

Is this a riddle for him?

Utatane Koharu for a moment, then quickly walked over and whispered an explanation to Feudal Lord.

Her words caused a huge uproar among the villagers downstairs.

"What did the advisor just say?"

"Is Kanami the same as Chi? Is Chi the same as Kanami?"

"So it was Chi. That makes sense now that so many votes are for him!"

"Is it that so-called hero who cleaned up the Konoha- boring insects?"

"You've heard about it too? I thought it was the story of my kid trying to Redhead."

"Made up?!" A red-haired youth squeezed in front of the two, shouting angrily, "Those who carry firewood for others should not be left to freeze to death in the wind and snow!"

"Red Soldiers fight against the Konoha's parasites, unafraid of power, seeking neither fame nor fortune, yet you still spread rumors?"

"Open it up! Open it up! We want to see the Red Army!"

Gradually, more and more red-haired teenagers poured into the crowd, including some uncles who silently took out red wigs and put them on their heads.

Compared to teenagers who dye their hair, the older generation is much more reserved, only wearing wigs when no one is around, trying to recall their former selves who wouldn't bow down for a pittance.

Kanami, standing in the crowd, tightened his grip on Hinata's hand to prevent them from being separated by the throng.

"You're a fan of Akagi too, right? Why aren't you saying anything?" A Redhead boy approached Kanami, frowning.

If we don't speak up today, who will speak up for us when we encounter injustice tomorrow?

Kanami: "..."

On the rooftop of the Hokage Building, the Feudal Lord learned a series of things from Utatane Koharu.

His face darkened. "You figure it out yourself! In any case, only Tsunade can become the Fifth Hokage!"

A man who can kill an advisor without hesitation, if he becomes Hokage and asks the Feudal Lord for financial aid, will he give it to him or not?

Although he lacked military power, as a politician, he was still able to easily see through such an obvious problem.

His blood relation with Tsunade would further strengthen their bond.

Jonin looking down from the rooftop of the Hokage Building.

Below, there was a dense, dark mass of red.

hiss--

They all gasped in shock.

"It's already fermented to this point? That's incredibly fast," Utatane Koharu murmured.

Kakashi Hatake, also on the rooftop, stared at her with one eye.

Is it fast? Compared to my father's time, is it fast or slow?

Kakashi's father, Hatake Sakumo, the Konoha White Fang of Konoha, died from a silent, invisible bullet.

Hyuga Hiashi and the Hyuga clan members remained silent on the very edge, seemingly watching the Konoha higher-ups make a fool of themselves.

Of course, there were many members of the Inuzuka clan and Aburame clan who outwardly expressed concern but inwardly gloated.

?

Suddenly, Feudal Lord saw a burly figure.

His face darkened, and he pointed at the figure, "How come even among the Jonin there are fans of Kanami! They've infiltrated the Konoha Jonin?"

Hearing the Feudal Lord's angry shout, everyone was taken aback and looked in the direction he was pointing.

What immediately caught my eye was a head of Redhead!

Looking further down, everyone's expressions turned strange.

This person was none other than Akimichi Chōza, the patriarch of the Akimichi Clan.

Akimichi Chōza: "???"

Feeling extremely uncomfortable under everyone's gaze, Akimichi Chōza quickly explained, "It's true! My mother gave birth to me!"

'There's no other way. Since that's the case, let's just call Kanami up...'

Thinking this to herself, Utatane Koharu moved to the edge of the rooftop and looked down.

She looked around and around.

Where are they?

Kanami, who was just with Hinata Hyuga in the crowd, has now disappeared.

'This guy didn't deliberately run away, did he?!' Utatane Koharu ashen.

Where are they? Where is Chi? Where is Kanami?

"Advisor?"

The crowd downstairs continued shouting loudly.

They couldn't even hear the cries for Tsunade anymore.

Compared to the successor to the Fifth Hokage, they seemed more eager to see Akane's true face.

By this time, Kanami and Hinata had already left the crowd.

He doesn't care about this mess.
