My Ninja Cat Thought I Was Weak, So I Stole Thunder Fruit

Chapter 237 Big news, Konoha's new Hokage candidate is... (4 more)

Although Hefeng used Sharingan's illusion to control Daimyo of the Fire Nation, turning him into his own political puppet.

But Hefeng doesn't intend to use this puppet all the time.

Wait until the industry of the Uchiha family can gradually support the economy of the country of fire.

He will take his place.

But before that, no one should know that the daimyo was controlled by his illusion.

For this reason, Hefeng only confided this matter to Setsuna.

Appoint him as the personal bodyguard of the fire country daimyo.

As for the guards, Setsuna can choose members at will from among the Uchiha clan.

As long as it's not Qinghe Itachi.

I have to say that after hearing Hefeng's approach, Setsuna only felt that his view of the world was shattered by his manipulation.

Almost can't believe it's real.

After repeated confirmation with Hefeng several times, he slowly accepted the reality.

But the shock in his heart could not be calmed down.

Apart from the shock of the event, of course.

Setsuna also felt an extremely proud sense of accomplishment.

Because this is something that Hefeng didn't even tell Qing, it shows that he is the most trusted clan member of Hefeng!

He swears by the surname Uchiha.

As long as he is still alive, he will not let Hefeng down.

And things went smoothly after that.

Three days later, Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned Konoha's ninjas at the Hokage Building in the identity of Hokage.

Except for the ninjas in charge of border security.

Konoha's Chūnin, Jōnin, Elite Jōnin, Anbu ninja.

And members of the various families of Konoha.

All gathered in the open space below the Hokage building, following his orders.

Stand in square formation.

Members of the Konoha Police Department were in charge of order at the scene.

soon……

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who is Third Hokage, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu, the two high-level Konoha, appeared on the roof of the Hokage building.

Overlooking the Konoha Shinobi.

It's just that compared to Hiruzen, Yan and Koharu's faces are a bit unsightly.

They were puzzled.

Why did Sarutobi Hiruzen have such a big change after he came back from the daimyo.

But the arms can't twist the thighs.

Facing the joint support of Hiruzen and Daimyo.

Neither of them could change anything.

"First of all, I would like to thank everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to come here..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath, and greeted the Konoha Shinobi followers below.

But anyone can see the importance of calling them this time.

Because since three days ago, they have received notifications one after another.

On this day, meet at the Hokage Building.

"I think everyone should still remember."

"When I took on the responsibility of Hokage for the second time, I told everyone..."

"I am only serving as Konoha's Hokage temporarily, and I will announce my abdication when there is another suitable Hokage candidate in the village."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar at the scene.

Especially the patriarchs of various families.

No one expected that Sarutobi Hiruzen would make such a sudden announcement.

Because such a statement is equivalent to announcing to everyone...

He plans to retire from the position of Third Hokage!

Leave Konoha's future to other ninjas in the village!

So here comes the problem...

Who is the candidate for the next Hokage?

"Could it be that Jiraiya and Tsunade-sama are back?" The voice from the crowd didn't know where it came from first.

The name of Konoha Sannin has been famous in the ninja world since the Second Ninja World War.

For the ninjas in the village, they are the legendary Konoha heroes.

Also a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

It can be said that the roots are positive and the seedlings are red.

If they return to the village, they are indeed qualified to take over Konoha from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Become the Fifth Hokage in the village.

but……

Such a voice was quickly refuted.

"If it's Jiraiya or Tsunade-sama returning to the village, it's impossible not to make waves?"

"Third Hokage-sama told us to gather here three days ago."

"Precisely, if it's Jiraiya or Tsunade-sama, they returned to the village at least three days ago, but... I haven't heard of it."

"If it wasn't Jiraiya or Tsunade-sama, who else would it be?"

"Could it be Hefeng?"

"Although Hefeng is very capable and strong, isn't he too young?"

"Indeed, fifteen-year-old Hokage, no matter how you think about it, it's impossible..."

For a while, the ninjas gathered in front of the Hokage building couldn't help talking.

Began to guess the candidate for the new Hokage.

"Everyone be quiet."

Noticing that the voice below gradually became louder, Hiruzen hastily cleared his throat.

Tell everyone to be quiet.

Then, he turned sideways and made a gesture.

Let Hefeng, who is ready, come directly to his side.

In fact, Hefeng was quite surprised by Sarutobi Hiruzen's arrangement.

The daimyo's is just the most common illusion, and according to Hefeng's needs, the daimyo's mind can be changed at any time.

Say what you want to hear through his mouth.

But Hiruzen is completely different.

His illusion is Shisui's Distinguished Heavenly Gods.

It is the strongest illusion that can permanently modify one's will.

And Hefeng's will to change is just to eliminate Hiruzen's prejudice against himself.

Let him trust himself the same way he trusts Sarutobi Asuma.

In other words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision to declare himself the new Hokage now is entirely his own.

Not Hefeng's intervention.

According to Hefeng's original plan, he just wanted to be a candidate for Fifth Hokage first.

Then with the capture of Orochimaru.

It is logical to become the Fifth Hokage.

But who knows...

Shisui's Distinguished Heavenly Gods is more reliable than Hefeng imagined.

To make Sarutobi Hiruzen trust himself, to such an extent.

but……

"never mind."

"Anyway, the result is the same."

Hefeng simply didn't go into any corners.

He calmly walked over to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

And when he appeared on the roof of the Hokage building, the ninjas gathered below suddenly widened their eyes.

Especially the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan.

Almost a knee-jerk reaction.

One side rolled their eyes.

One side has Sharingan turned on.

Watching Hefeng standing next to Hiruzen.

His eyes were filled with unprecedented inconceivability.

Because combined with Sarutobi Hiruzen's first half of the declaration.

Apparently it was planned to appoint Hefeng as Konoha's Fifth Hokage.

Although……

Among them, many people flashed the name Hefeng in that instant.

But considering that Hefeng is only fifteen years old now.

Still young.

Coupled with Konoha's high-level suppression policy against the Uchiha family for so many years.

In their hearts, they all quickly denied Hefeng.

I think the new Hokage that Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned should be someone else.

Especially members of the Uchiha clan.

In his heart, he even imagined that Sarutobi Hiruzen planned to use the power of the new Hokage to fight against Hefeng.

Such thoughts are more real.

When they saw Hefeng appear with their own eyes, the impact was even greater.

Especially the titular patriarch Uchiha Fugaku.

I was so surprised that I wondered if I hadn't woken up yet...
