Chapter 1028 Unstoppable

From any perspective, Okamoto Dousuke is qualified to be a candidate for the Fifth Hokage.

But there is only one thing, that is, the recommendation of the Fire Nation is too strange.

This recommendation came at an extremely timely moment.

However, the Fire Nation has always had the right to recommend Hokage.

It’s just that no daimyo of the Land of Fire has ever exercised this right of recommendation.

In addition, the first and second generation Hokage were such powerful ninjas.

The Third Hokage was appointed by the Second Hokage.

Naturally, they would ignore the proposal of the Fire Country Daimyo.

The Daimyo of the Fire Nation also understands this, so he has been staying in his own little corner all these years.

Now, the Third Hokage is dead, leaving no clues about the next Hokage.

Therefore, we have to take the proposal of the Fire Country Daimyo Shin Kagami no Kazuki seriously.

The reason why Okamoto Dousuke asked Shin Kagami Nakata to recommend him as Hokage at this point in time was because he had calculated the current situation.

I'm afraid that Danzo Shimura had the same idea as him back then.

Otherwise, Danzo Shimura would not have chosen to invest in the latter between Shin Kagami Nakadashi and his elder brother Shin Kagami Nakadashi.

'Could it be that Dousuke has something to do with this war? ? ' Looking at the secret letter from the Land of Fire in his hand, Jiraiya fell into deep thought.

So the scene at the beginning happened.

After seeing Okamoto Dousuke's calm expression, Jiraiya also put aside his doubts.

"I'm really stupid!!" Jiraiya laughed at himself.

"Teacher Jiraiya, what's wrong?" Okamoto Dousuke looked at Jiraiya with a puzzled look, asking as if he knew the answer.

"Nothing. The Jonin meeting will be held soon. I came to remind you not to forget to attend."

"Okay, Teacher Jiraiya." Okamoto Dousuke nodded.

He also heard what Jiraiya said just now.

After just a quick thought, Okamoto Dousuke understood what was going on.

But he didn't care because it was an open conspiracy.

Okamoto Dousuke didn't care about convening a jonin meeting.

Because this was exactly what he expected.

That's why Okamoto Dousuke remained so calm about all this, after all, he had known about it for a long time.

Soon, Konoha's jonin began to gather in Konoha's tiered conference room.

Mizuto Kado En and Utane Koharu looked at the jonin in the conference room with grim expressions.

This time's Jonin meeting was simply a forced one.

The convening of this meeting completely exceeded their expectations.

"How is it!!" Utane Koharu asked Mito Kado En in a low voice.

"Don't worry, I've already talked to the family." Mizuto Menen gave Utane Koharu a look that said you understand.

In this Jonin meeting, Dousuke Okamoto must pass at least two-thirds of the votes to become Hokage.

"Cough cough cough!" Utane Koharu coughed softly a few times.

Then step forward.

Looked around.

"Konoha is in a precarious situation right now, and Konoha urgently needs a Hokage."

"The Fire Country Daimyo Shinkagami Nakagawa has proposed that Konoha's elite jonin Okamoto Dousuke serve as Konoha's fifth Hokage." When introducing, Utatane Koharu deliberately ignored Okamoto Dousuke's position.

Utane Koharu was in a bad mood, and as soon as she came up she started by explaining the reason for convening this Jonin meeting.

Besides, Konoha is in a state of disrepair right now, so it is not appropriate to talk at length.

Being straightforward is the most suitable approach for Konoha's current situation.

"This time it was actually proposed by the Fire Nation itself."

"The Fire Nation actually interferes with the election of Hokage of Konoha?"

These are fence-sitters in the neutral faction. Most of these people are civilian ninjas who have no stance of their own.

They do not have a fixed faction, and will only try to occupy a position that is beneficial to them based on Konoha's current political situation.

The Fire Nation's proposal this time also made these people think about it.

"It turns out to be Lord Dousuke!!" This might be a ninja who is on good terms with Okamoto Dousuke.

"Huh, Okamoto Dousuke is so young, how can he be the Hokage?" A slightly older ninja clan leader couldn't help but sneer.

"That's right, considering Okamoto Dousuke's age, it's a bit too hasty for him to become Hokage." A senior ninja next to the ninja clan leader immediately echoed.

The only ninjas from the faction of Mitomon En and Utane Koharu who could make such remarks were those from that faction.

"Humph, when the Fourth Hokage came to power, he was even younger than Lord Dousuke is today." Immediately, a die-hard fan of Okamoto Dousuke came over and retorted.

"A summer insect cannot talk about ice!!" The ninja clan leader who had initially said that Okamoto Dousuke was not qualified paused, and finally squeezed out these words from between his teeth, then closed his eyes and said no more.

"The Third Hokage is still alive, isn't it a bit too hasty to elect the Fifth Hokage now?"

"For such a big thing as electing Hokage, shouldn't we wait until Konoha is stable before making a decision?" Some slightly older ninjas frowned slightly and couldn't help but express their opinions.

This is the faction that is loyal to the Third Hokage.

These people have followed the Third Hokage almost since the moment they became ninjas.

Now the Third Hokage has just died fighting for Konoha.

The body had not yet been buried, but Utane Koharu and others had already started the election for the Fifth Hokage.

This action made these people slightly dissatisfied.

There was a sudden noise in the conference room.

"Okay, now the election officially begins." Utane Koharu stopped the noisy and chaotic meeting room and announced loudly.

Following Utane Koharu's words, the huge conference room suddenly fell silent.

"Okay, since the situation is urgent, let's keep it simple. Please raise your hands if you agree that Okamoto Dousuke will be elected as the fifth Hokage of Konoha." Utane Koharu glanced around the conference room.

This type of election is usually conducted by secret ballot.

But now this guy Utane Koharu actually asked everyone to vote by raising their hands.

This is simply putting everyone on the fire.

Even the ninjas who had supported Okamoto Dousuke at the beginning were now hesitant.

I don’t know whether I should raise my hand.

If you raise your hand, it will be easy for Okamoto Dousuke to become Hokage after that, and you can show your loyalty in advance.

However, if Okamoto Dousuke fails to become Hokage, he might be hated by the future Hokage.

These are all risks.

The patriarchs of the Ninja Clan were all extremely conflicted.

This is the plan of this woman, Koharu Utatane, which makes everyone afraid.

As soon as Utane Koharu started talking.

Suddenly the entire conference room fell silent.
