"You mean you want to choose me as Hokage?"
Inside Konoha Hospital, Namikawa Yū stood there quietly, looking at the two Utatane Koharu in front of him with a look of surprise on his face.
"Not bad."
Mitokado Homura nodded. "If Hiruzen is still here, he is undoubtedly the best candidate for Hokage, but he has disappeared now."
"The teacher is gone, and Mr. Danzo is here."
Namikawa Yū spoke softly, "He is also a student of Lord Hokage. His strength is considered top in the village and he is qualified to become Hokage."
"Although I don't want to say it, Danzo's temperament is not suitable for becoming Hokage."
Utatane Koharu hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, "His temper is too extreme. If he becomes Hokage, the village will suffer a disaster."
Compared to the mild-tempered Hiruzen Sarutobi, the cold-tempered Shimura Danzō is a type that many people dislike.
Even teammates Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu don't want to see such a Hokage above their heads.
Relatively speaking, the performance of Namikawa Yū is undoubtedly more suitable.
He has a gentle personality and has a good relationship with Ino-Shika-Cho, supporters of Hiruzen Sarutobi, as well as with Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura and others.
When Second Hokage Tobirama Senju was still around, Senju Tobirama also admired Namikawa Yū very much.
His ability is obvious to all. He has presided over the reform of the medical sector over the years, and the results are clearly visible.
Within the entire Konoha, even the past Hiruzen Sarutobi cannot be compared with Namikawa Yū in this regard.
The most important thing is origin.
Namikawa Yū was born Uchiha Clan.
This was originally a disadvantage.
However, due to Namikawa Yū's deliberate efforts over the years, the imprint of the Uchiha Clan on his body has become very weak. On the contrary, his identity as a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi has become more prominent.
As a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi, he can enjoy many things.
Senju Tobirama originally prepared the team for Hiruzen Sarutobi to take over. Now that Hiruzen Sarutobi is no longer around, many of them can be Namikawa Yū's help.
For example, right now.
"Ji, you are the disciple of Hiruzen."
Mitokado Homura said, "Hiruzen was the Hokage designated by the teacher before his death. Now that he is gone, as Hiruzen's only disciple, you should be the nominee for the next generation of Hokage."
It is very common in this world for a disciple to inherit the legacy of his teacher.
In any case, when Hiruzen Sarutobi has disappeared, Namikawa Yū inherits the inheritance of Hiruzen Sarutobi, which seems reasonable to Mitokado Homura and others.
Of course, this is when they do it without knowing that Hiruzen Sarutobi is Namikawa Yū.
"I'm still too young after all...
Faced with the persuasion of Mitokado Homura, Namikawa Yū showed hesitation.
"That's not a problem."
Utatane Koharu began to persuade, "Your ability is obvious to all, and your strength is not inferior to Danzo."
"If you come forward, everyone will be convinced."
"I'll think about it again."
Namikawa Yū did not agree immediately.
This is of course acting, but also based on practical considerations.
Agreeing too eagerly will not only expose your purpose, but also make you fall into passivity.
At this moment, the story of running for Hokage has just begun, and he is not in a hurry.
Namikawa Yū The waiting time did not pass too long.
As he expected, just a period of time passed, and many changes occurred outside.
There are also some episodes happening.
Uchiha Clan Head entered the Hokage race with a high profile.
He was just campaigning, but he went so far as to make a big show of it, and even threatened those small tribes who were unwilling to surrender to the Uchiha Clan to make them pay the price in the future.
His style is too flamboyant and he doesn't know how to hold back at all.
Even if you really think so in your heart about settling accounts after the fall, you can't say it out loud.
This Uchiha Clan Head is really good. Not only does he not pretend, but he also speaks out openly.
Regarding his performance, Namikawa Yū could only shake his head secretly, saying that there was no surprise.
The other party's operation would be unbelievable to ordinary people, but if it were applied to the Uchiha Clan, it would be normal.
After all, he has experienced Uchiha Clan's level of political struggle before, and there is no doubt about it.
However, as soon as this incident came out, the resistance within Konoha to the Uchiha Clan's rise became even stronger.
Originally there were many people in Konoha who did not want to see Uchiha Clan take over, but now there are even more.
"Ji, we can't go on like this."
In the quiet courtyard, Kagami Uchiha stood in front of a tree, looking at Namikawa Yū in front of him and persuading him. "Master Clan Head has gone crazy now...
"Once he gets on board Hokage Position, the village will be messed up by him."
In front of him, Namikawa Yū stood quietly, like a gardener, quietly repairing flowers and plants.
He has been like this all this time.
Despite the disturbances from the outside world, he stayed here all the time, as if he didn't care about the outside world at all, and showed an attitude that it had nothing to do with him.
"Where is Mr. Danzo...
Listening to Jing's words, Namikawa Yū spoke softly, "What did he say?"
"Danzo, he...
71
When Danzo was mentioned, Kagami Uchiha was hesitant to speak. Finally, he sighed and said, "He has changed a bit. He has become a bit strange now..."
"In order to fight for Hokage Position, he is now desperate."
Uchiha Clan Head There was a thunderstorm over there, but Danzo didn't seem to be much better here either.
In order to compete for Hokage Position, he also performed a lot of operations. Although it had some effects, it also disgusted many onlookers.
Because of this, Kagami Uchiha and others are even more disappointed at this moment.
No one wants to have a cunning leader above them.
This is especially true for people like Kagami Uchiha and Mitokado Homura who really love Konoha.
To put it bluntly, in this battle for the Hokage, until now, Namikawa Yū has not officially taken action, and his competitors have already made a fuss.
So sometimes, it doesn't matter how well you do, as long as the other party does poorly enough.
This is a worse world.
"Is that so?"
Namikawa Yū sighed softly.
Listening to Kagami Uchiha's words, he seemed a little moved and fell into thinking at the moment.
Kagami Uchiha on the side did not disturb him, but looked at Namikawa Yū in front of him, with a look of expectation on his face. Most of Hiruzen Sarutobi's many friends have a good relationship with Namikawa Yū, even Shimura Danzō, who maintained normal friendship and communication in the past.
But among these many people, Kagami Uchiha is undoubtedly the one who has the best relationship with Namikawa Yū.
On the one hand, they are from the same race, and on the other hand, they appreciate it.
Although Uchiha is different from other Uchiha, Kagami Uchiha truly loves Konoha and truly believes in Hiruzen Sarutobi, but who doesn't have the dream of becoming Hokage?
People like Kagami Uchiha, Mitokado Homura, etc., the reason why they did not stand up to run for that position was because they knew the limitations of their abilities and knew that they were not enough to take on that position, so they did not stand up.
But the Namikawa Yū in front of me is different.
In Kagami Uchiha's view, although this junior is young, his abilities are even better than his teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Within Konoha, the only one that can truly rival it is the deceased Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.
He had no hope of becoming Hokage, but the younger generation of his own race in front of him had great hope.
Moreover, there is also a life-saving factor in this.
Previously, Mitokado Homura and his team returned to Konoha. The others were fine, but Kagami Uchiha's injuries were quite serious.
If Namikawa Yū hadn't treated him in time, he might have died directly.
With these important factors, coupled with the relationship between the same clan and the previous one, Kagami Uchiha supports Namikawa Yū in every aspect.
"What do the clan say?"
After thinking for a long time, Namikawa Yū finally looked up.
He looked at Kagami Uchiha in front of him. "If I stand up and run for Hokage, what will the people in the clan say?"
"Most people in the clan support Clan Head."
Listening to Namikawa Yū's words, Kagami Uchiha's face immediately showed joy. "But if you are willing to stand up, then I can guarantee that at least 30% of the people will stand up to support you, and many of the remaining people will also take a wait-and-see attitude."
After all, Namikawa Yū is from the Uchiha Clan.
Over the years, as a genius of the Uchiha Clan, although he deliberately concealed the Uchiha Clan logo on his body, he also gained a huge reputation within the Uchiha Clan.
After all, no matter in every aspect, he is Uchiha Clan's amazing genius.
The same is true for the Kagami Uchiha in front of me.
Compared to Namikawa Yū, who has an ordinary background, Mirror's family is unusual in Uchiha. Although it is not the Clan Head family, it has produced many Clan Elders and has a huge influence in the Uchiha Clan.
If not, Second Hokage Tobirama Senju would not choose to accept him as a student.
With the support of Kagami Uchiha, coupled with Namikawa Yū's own reputation, it is enough to ensure that the vast majority of Uchiha ninjas will support him.
"That's enough."
Namikawa Yū nodded. "In that case, let's go ahead and do it."
He does not think that 30% of supporters are few, but rather thinks that the support rate is already very high.
After all, in the final analysis, in order to minimize the Uchiha Clan mark on his body, he did not do anything in the Uchiha Clan.
Under such circumstances, he can still maintain his current approval rating, which is already pretty good.
"Where is Torifu-senpai?"
He continued to ask.
"He did not express his attitude, but he also does not support Danzo."
Kagami Uchiha said, "As long as you are willing to stand up, Yan and I will go to your door to persuade you. There will be absolutely no problem."
Torifu Akimichi, who is also one of the guard groups of Senju Tobirama, is the representative of the three traditional families of Ino-Shika-Cho.
If he chooses to support Namikawa Yū, then he will basically have the support of Ino-Shika-Cho Clans.
These three tribes were originally supporters of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"In that case."
Namikawa Yū said softly, "Then come."
