Hokage: Ryo’s Path - Chapter 186

[Chapter 186 The Fourth Hokage Wave Wind Minato]

The week-long Naruto election has been in full swing for three days.

In the past three days, Bo Fengshuimen, Orochimaru, and Yamanaka Ryo’s three have been biting very tightly.

On the second day, Yamanaka Ryo and Orochimaru once surpassed Namikaze Minato to become the first place, but later they overtook Namikaze Minato.

In the conference room of the mountain clan, the patriarch of the three clans of pigs, deer and butterflies has been paying attention to the Hokage election.

“These three days are basically small fights. From tomorrow, the major families will almost intervene, right?” Yamanaka Hai asked after glancing at Nara Shikahisa.

“Well, it should be like this.” Nara Shikahisa responded with a frown.

Nara Shikaku’s expression was too serious, and Qiu Dao Dingza was a little strange, and then asked: “Lujiu, is there something wrong?”

“It’s nothing, just wondering why that person hasn’t moved yet.”

“Well, indeed. If you don’t come today, you can only do it tomorrow…” Before Yamanaka Haiyi finished speaking, a member of the Yamanaka clan rushed in in a hurry.

“Patriarch, Lord Lu Jiu, Lord Ding Zuo, Danzo asks to see you.”

When the three heard that Danzang was coming, their eyes lit up, and after two days of waiting, Danzang finally couldn’t hold back any longer.

In the front hall of the mountain family, the patriarchs of the three clans of pigs, deer and butterflies appeared at the same time. Because it was in the territory of the mountain family, Yamanaka Haiyi greeted Tuanzang very enthusiastically: “Lord Tuanzang, long time no see!”

“Three, long time no see!” Danzo responded indifferently.

After the four of them were seated, Danzo directly stated the purpose of his trip: “Three patriarchs, how will Yama Zhongyuan withdraw from this Hokage election?”

Danzo is ready for a big hemorrhage this time, and facing Konoha’s smartest man Nara Shikaku, there is no need to hide it.

“Sir Danzo is so frank and we don’t talk nonsense. Our three tribes want the entire Konoha medical system.” Nara Shikahisa put forward their conditions.

Danzo will come as early as the first day, Shikhisa Nara thought of it. That’s why he would gather in the mountain family and Yamanaka Haiyi, Qiu Dao Dingzao, the purpose is to discuss how to deal with Danzo.

Nara Shikahisa has already calculated everything, and with him working, Yamanaka Ryo has about a 50% chance of overpowering Namifeng Minato to become Hokage.

But Nara Shikuhisa didn’t think that Yamanaka Ryo would not want to be a Hokage at all, which disrupted Nara Shikahisa’s overall plan.

In the original Hokage campaign, Orochimaru and Danzo are in a cooperative relationship. Orochimaru wants to become Hokage so that he has the right to mobilize more resources for his research, while Danzo wants to further control Konoha by manipulating Orochimaru.

And now, on the second day of the Hokage election, Danzo still found Orochimaru and offered to cooperate.

Today’s Orochimaru is different from the original period, and some techniques and ideas provided by Yamanaka Ryo are enough for him to study.

Therefore, Orochimaru has no interest in being a Hokage that will waste his time.

But just yesterday, Yamanaka Ryo specially came to Orochimaru and asked Orochimaru to put down the experiment in his hand and cooperate with him to hide it once.

Orochimaru was a little reluctant at first. His research on primary cells reached a critical point and he didn’t want to waste time.

Yamanaka Ryo guessed that Orochimaru would refuse, so he decisively took out a corpse of Bai Jue.

After observing the characteristics of Bai Jue’s corpse, Orochimaru’s eyes lit up. Bai Jue’s special body was too attractive to Orochimaru, and Orochimaru resolutely agreed to Yamanaka Ryo’s request.

In this way, Danzo has reached a cooperation with Orochimaru.

Therefore, in order to support Orochimaru’s ascendance, Danzo will come to the Yamanaka family, let Yamanaka Ryo withdraw from the election, and reduce a strong contender for the position of Hokage.

“The entire medical system of Konoha, this request is too much!” Danzo shook his head and refused directly.

After that, there was a wrangling between the two, and Yamanaka Haiichi and Qiu Daoding were drowsy listening to each other.

In the end, after dozens of minutes of negotiation, the two reached a consensus. Danzo directly handed over control of Konoha Hospital to the Zhuludie clan. The Zhuludie clan announced that Shan Zhongyuan had withdrawn from the election before tomorrow, and they will take over the next election. You cannot support Nagao Minato in the election.

On the fourth day of the election, Yamanaka Haiichi, on behalf of the Yamanaka clan, publicly announced that Yamanaka Ryo had withdrawn from the Hokage election, on the grounds that Yamanaka Ryo was too young and had insufficient qualifications.

Yamanaka Haiichi’s reason was perfect. After all, Yamanaka Ryo was really only 14 years old, but it was just ignored by everyone subconsciously.

After Yamanaka Ryo withdrew from the election, the only ones who could become Hokage are Minato and Orochimaru.

On the fourth day of the election, Yamanaka Ryo’s sudden withdrawal made it too late for Konoha’s major clans to take action, so the number of votes on the fourth day did not change.

The number of votes in the election on the fifth day changed drastically. Due to the operation of Danzo, Konoha’s small and medium-sized family chose to support Orochimaru. Orochimaru overtook Namifeng Minato in one day, and was far ahead.

“Brother Minato, why aren’t you in a hurry at all?” Yamanaka Ryo asked at the third training ground, looking at the light-hearted Namikaze Minato.

“Yuan, don’t speak rude words, Minato must seem calmer, so don’t irritate him.” Kushina said after glaring at Yamanaka Ryo.

“Sister Kushina, you misunderstood. I just wanted to say that Minato-san doesn’t have to worry about the current situation.” Yamanaka Ryo quickly explained to Kushina.

“Why don’t you worry? The current situation is very unfavorable for Minato!” Kushina asked strangely.

“It’s very simple! Because Minato-san is a commoner ninja, and Konoha’s high-level executives are generally family ninjas, and commoner ninjas are hard to come by. It’s hard to find a genius among commoner ninjas, and Konoha’s commoners and ordinary ninjas will definitely support Minato-san. Compared with the villagers and ordinary ninjas, the number of family ninjas is too small, and in the end, Minato-san will win.”

Yamanaka Ryo told Kushina Kushina the main reason why the original Nakafume Minato was elected as the fourth Hokage.

“But now Watergate’s votes are so behind, I’m still very worried.” Kushina said a little gloomily.

“Actually, Uncle Snake doesn’t want to be Hokage at all, sister Kushina, don’t worry!” Yamanaka Ryo didn’t want to see Kushina’s frowning face, so he simply said what Orochimaru thought.

Hearing this news, Minato Minato, who had been unresponsive, frowned and asked Yamanaka Ryo, “Ryo, you said that Senior Orochimaru doesn’t want to be Hokage? What’s going on?”

“Literally, Uncle Snake has his business to do, and being Hokage is a complete waste of time for him.”

“Yuan, you’re not interested in Hokage, and Teacher Jiraiya doesn’t want to be Hokage, neither does Sakumo-senpai, but now even Senior Orochimaru doesn’t want to be Hokage, doesn’t that mean I’ve been worrying for nothing during this time?” Hearing that, some couldn’t believe it.

“That’s it. From the very beginning, only Minato-san wanted to take the position of Hokage, but even if we wanted to compete with Minato-san, we wouldn’t have much chance.”

As expected, as Yamanaka Ryo said, civilians and ordinary ninjas exerted their strength on the sixth day, and the support rate of Namikaze Minato continued to rise, surpassing Orochimaru.

On the seventh day, Konoha’s two largest families, Uchiha and Hinata, both chose to support Naikaze Minato.

After seeing the votes of Uchiha and Hyuga, Yamanaka Ryo understood why Minato Namikaze has always been so calm. It turned out that he had already secured Uchiha and Hyuga in secret.

In this way, the position of the fourth-generation Hokage has finally settled. Like the original, the fourth-generation Hokage is still Minato Nami.
