Chapter 146 The position of Hokage

I saw Danzo saying, "Let me do it. My strength should be enough, right? This is also to compensate for my not participating in the plan before."

"You must be strong enough, but..." Xia Li said with a sarcastic face, "You are not young, right? Even if you can intimidate the Sand Ninja, how long can you intimidate them?"

Danzo stared at Xia Li, furious. After all, Xia Li's words clearly said that he wouldn't live for many years. He said angrily, "Who else do you think other than me?"

"Me." Xia Li said with a smile.

"You?" Danzo mocked, "Are you strong enough?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Danzo's heart skipped a beat. He was too angry just now and seemed to have forgotten something. The words just blurted out. He suddenly remembered that the other party seemed to be...

"I don't know if it's enough, but I know I'm very suitable." Xia Li said, taking out the special kunai and playing with it in his hand. This kunai was Minato's version of the Flying Thunder God kunai.

When everyone saw this kunai, they all realized what this kunai represented, and then they all thought of the figure galloping on the battlefield.

Indeed, with this ninjutsu, even if the strength is not that strong, it can still achieve a deterrent effect, and with Xia Li's age, the deterrent effect may be even stronger.

"So I won't bother you to do this. How can such a small thing bother you, a key ninja who needs to preserve the foundation of Konoha at all times~"

Xia Li was still worried about what happened before, so she directly expressed her anger.

Danzo was silent, clenching his hands, and for a moment he couldn't tell what he was thinking. He didn't look at Xia Li anymore, but stared at Sandai closely and said, "Hiruzhan, you will definitely regret it!"

After Danzo finished speaking, he stood up and left. It would be a joke to stay any longer, so he might as well leave.

After Danzo left, Xia Li continued as if he didn't care at all, "Everyone, that's all I have to say. Many of them haven't had time to think about its feasibility and specific implementation methods due to time issues. If there is no If people object, then we will discuss the specific implementation methods.”

"I agree." At this time, Haiyi Shanzhong stood up first and said, and then looked at Xia Li with eyes full of satisfaction.

Yamanaka Haiichi agreed, and Nara Shikaku next to him also nodded, pulling Akimichi Choza along and agreed.

After all, Xia Li is speaking on behalf of the Hokage now, and they naturally want to stand on the Hokage's side, but they are usually not the first to express their opinions, but... who makes Yamanaka the other party's future father-in-law.

Nara Shikaku was also a little envious of his old friend at this time.

As for Hinata Hizu, looking at Xia Li in front of him, he knew that the other person was the one who suggested Hinata take another path. After sighing for a while, he also expressed his agreement.

After these heavyweights all agreed, and the two consultants had no objections, the rest of the people agreed one after another.

Later, after no one objected, everyone began to discuss the specific details. In fact, Xia Li was not familiar with many people in this regard, so it was difficult to arrange it well.

Jiraiya looked at Xia Li over there and sighed inwardly. He was so sharp when Danzo was there, but now he seems to be able to accept the suggestions of people around him more humbly.

Moreover, Jilai didn't know what Xia Li just said, and he wouldn't think about it because of his personality. But just listening to Xia Li said it made him feel quite powerful. Maybe the old man's idea was right. It might be a good choice for Xia Li to become Hokage.

However, Jiraiya rubbed his chin and looked at Xia Li. Although he looked about fifteen years old this year, he was actually only 13 years old, right? Is this age really appropriate?

While Jiraiya was thinking, the discussion over there slowly came to an end.

The final result is that Yamanaka Kaiichi is responsible for the team's pairing combination, while Hinata Hizashi is responsible for negotiating with the Suna Ninja, and of course Nara Shikaku is assisting.

As for the distribution of tasks, two consultants are temporarily responsible for it. However, before distribution, the distribution list must be reviewed by the third generation. Only after the third generation agrees can the task be finally issued.

Of course, some other matters were also discussed during this process, but Xia Li was not familiar with these matters and generally did not participate in them. Fortunately, these matters were not major problems and were quickly resolved.

"Okay, now that it has been decided, let's proceed immediately as we just discussed. Xia Li and Jiraiya stay, and the others can withdraw." The third generation said on the hospital bed at this time. During this period, he had almost no Said something.

He was just thinking about something, and his eyes would fall on Xia Li from time to time.

"Yes." All the jounin responded immediately after hearing this, and then left the third generation's ward in an orderly manner.

After everyone left, Sandai looked at Xia Li with a wry smile and said, "Xiao Xia Li, there is actually no need to target Danzo so much, he..."

"He will also be good for the village? I don't believe this. From what I have observed, what he did is not a good thing or beneficial to Konoha." Xia Li blocked it directly. The third generation said instead.

"Sandaime-sama, you are too indulgent towards him. You dare to refuse the Hokage's order in Konoha without being punished. This is not what you should be."

Suddenly, Sandai's breath froze.

"Old man, I think Xia Li is right about this. You have indulged Danzo too much. If you had not indulged him so much, maybe many things would not have happened." Jiraiya rarely spoke seriously at this time. .

The third generation finally sighed, his figure became more stooped, and he stopped mentioning Danzo.

"Jiraiya, you should also know my current physical condition, right?" Sandai asked.

"Well..." Jiraiya suddenly felt a little bad.

"Then, Jiraiya, you will be the Hokage." The third generation calmly made a shocking announcement.

"Huh?" Jiraiya was stunned and didn't react for a long time. Isn't it Xia Li?

And Sandai continued, "I know you still have the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal, but after so many years, hasn't that prophecy still not happened?"

"No, no, no, old man, I have never wanted to be Hokage!" Jiraiya said quickly after he realized what he was doing.

"Who should you choose to be Hokage? Xia Li is not old enough, at least he has to wait until Xia Li becomes an adult. So Jiraiya, you only need to take three years to become Hokage. When Xia Li becomes an adult, you can continue your pursuit. Your prophecy." There was also a hint of anger in Sandai's tone.

"But..." Jiraiya wanted to say something else.

"But what?! Who else in the village is suitable now except you? How about I ask Danzo to come back now and pass the position of Hokage to him. I believe Danzo will be very willing to accept this position!" Sandai said and glared. Towards Jiraiya.

Jiraiya couldn't help but shrink back when the Third Generation stared at him, as if he had returned to the time when he was tortured by the Third Generation as a child.

At this time, Jiraiya's inflexible brain began to work rapidly, and finally his eyes lit up and he said, "How is Tsunade?"

The third generation paused and then fell into thinking. According to his idea, the best arrangement is for Jiraiya to be the Hokage, and then he can smoothly transition to Xia Li. But now Jiraiya's attitude makes him feel angry. .

At this time, the third generation couldn't help but worry. Even if Jiraiya was forcibly tied to this position, would he really be able to do it?

If it's Tsunade, that's not bad, but...

"Tsunade is not in the village now, and will she be willing to accept the position of Hokage?" Sandai said and wanted to sigh again. Why, neither one or two can reassure him, can't he learn more from Xia Li?

Now the third generation regrets it, regrets it very much. Why did he push Xia Li to Jiraiya as his apprentice at that time? Wasn't it good for him to keep it himself?

"I will find and persuade her. If the persuasion fails, I will come back and take over as Hokage." Jiraiya said firmly, for the sake of his own free life, he must do it.

Tsunade, Xia Li also nodded. Indeed, compared to the unmotivated Jiraiya, Tsunade is undoubtedly more suitable for the position of Hokage.

As for himself, Xia Li doesn't want to take over the position of Hokage now. The restrictions are too great.

As for Tsunade, even if she keeps saying that anyone who wants to be Hokage is a fool, as the granddaughter of one of the founders of the village, she has no less feelings for Konoha than anyone else.

Moreover, Orochimaru's hand has not been sealed by the ghoul now, so he shouldn't go to Tsunade, right...?

Xia Li's heart suddenly skipped a beat, recalling what the Third Generation had told him about Orochimaru's purpose this time, which was to destroy Konoha and make the ninja world move again. Orochimaru's metaphor was that the ninja world was like a windmill, and destroying Konoha was like a windmill. The leaves are the wind that blows the windmill.

Now, the wind has not blown, so what will Orochimaru choose? He couldn't just stay where he was, could he?

No, we still have to let Kakashi and Metkai stay in the village just in case. Although Kakashi can't defeat Orochimaru, he can delay it for a while, and then delay the attack for Metkai, who is his best friend. The time from gate six to gate seven should be enough.

"If you can find Tsunade, then so be it." The third generation finally agreed. He also thought about it. If it was Tsunade, he wouldn't attach too much importance to the position of Hokage. When the time comes, he won't Wouldn't he be willing to give the position of Hokage to Xia Li.

As for whether Xia Li could get Tsunade's approval, Sandai had never considered this issue. After all, in his opinion, this was an issue that did not need to be considered.

"By the way, old man, I want to ask you for someone to find Tsunade." Jiraiya suddenly said.

"Huh?" Sandai was a little confused.

"Old man, don't you think Naruto is very similar to Tsunade's brother Naoki?" Jiraiya said.

Suddenly, the third generation was stunned, and then he couldn't help but nodded after recalling it carefully. It seemed that Jiraiya had also thought a lot about not being Hokage. That is, why should this thought be used in this aspect?

The third generation felt a little headache and couldn't help but glared at Jiraiya again.

Jiraiya was a little baffled by this look, but fortunately, the third generation finally agreed to him and took Naruto there, and by the way, he was able to hand the Rasengan to Naruto.

I just don't know how long it will take for Naruto to learn? He needs three days, while Xia Li only needs half a day, so Naruto... Jiraiya thought about Naruto's not outstanding ninjutsu talent, probably enough time, right?
