Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 347 We are invincible ahead.

At first, it was just a few scattered drops of rain, which inadvertently landed on people's upturned faces.

But soon, fine, cold rain began to fall from the sky.

"what?"

Yamanaka Ino, who was in the middle of her excitement, paused for a moment, subconsciously stretched out her palm, and watched a raindrop splash in her palm: "It's raining?"

More and more people are feeling it.

The raindrops became finer, pattering softly on the colorful flags, wetting people's hair and clothes, and bringing a chill.

"It's really raining!"

"Oh dear! My clothes are all wet!"

"Quick, find somewhere to hide!"

"How did you choose this date?!"

The originally unified and deafening cheers in the square were instantly replaced by surprised whispers and chaotic noise, and the enthusiastic crowd became restless.

People instinctively hunched their necks, shielding their heads with their hands or personal belongings, their steps becoming disordered as they frantically searched for shelter from the rain.

The festive atmosphere seemed to be instantly extinguished by the sudden rain, and feelings of disappointment and slight embarrassment spread among the crowd.

The perfectly planned celebration was about to be disrupted by this unexpected rain.

On the platform, Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained his calm smile, but a barely perceptible hint of gloom flickered in the depths of his eyes.

This damn weather!

Those guys at the Fire Country Meteorological Bureau, their weather forecasts are definitely unreliable!
Although the rain wasn't heavy enough to disrupt the ceremony, it was enough to significantly diminish the effectiveness of this carefully prepared event...

However, just as this commotion was beginning to rise...

Woohoo!

A deep, powerful gust of wind gradually rose, eventually drowning out the sounds of rain and voices.

The sound of the wind didn't come from all directions, but clearly came from above everyone's heads, from the top platform of the Hokage Building!

"what happened?"

"got windy……"

The restless crowd instinctively stopped seeking shelter from the rain, and looked up in surprise and uncertainty, following the sound of the wind.

On the high platform, Hyuga Kumokawa, clad in a divine robe, had taken a step forward and stood alone at the very front of the railing.

He raised his palm towards the gloomy sky, his five fingers slightly spread, as if he were holding up something, or as if he were issuing a silent command to the sky.

Centered on him, an invisible, powerful aura was gathering.

"Yes, it's Lord Yun Chuan?"

"What is he doing..."

The next moment, under the gaze of countless doubts, which then turned into disbelief.

In everyone's eyes, the falling raindrops stopped, as if frozen, and gradually stopped, stretching into needle shapes.

Immediately, they began to fly upwards, as if returning to the sky.

There was no more rain, only the sound of wind.

The rain that was falling all over the sky was stirred by an invisible hand. Instead of falling vertically, it was drawn to Hyuga Kumokawa and surrounded him, forming a vortex of rain mist!

call! !

Everyone heard the sound of the wind, a hollow sound that filled the entire world, as if they were standing in front of a typhoon.

Centered on Hyuga Kumokawa, a visible vortex of air formed, drawing all the rainwater into it and transforming it into a clearly visible tornado.

The clouds above were also engulfed; the thick, low-hanging, lead-gray clouds, centered on the Hyuga Cloud River below, actually began to slowly rotate.

A powerful gust of air swept past, causing people's clothes to flutter, their long hair to dance wildly, screams to rise from all sides, and colorful flags to wave wildly.

Many people instinctively raised their arms to shield themselves from the sudden gust of wind, squinted, or even closed their eyes tightly.

However, this suffocating gale did not last long. Just as everyone was almost unable to stand due to the pressure of the wind, on the high platform, Hinata Kumokawa's five fingers, which were raised high, slowly closed inward and clenched into a fist.

"Hurricane Release: Gale Slash." Hyuga Kumokawa's calm voice rang out in the wind, clearly reaching everyone's ears.

Chi! !

The hollow sound of the wind that filled the entire world suddenly disappeared.

Along with it, the pattering rain and the biting chill it brought also disappeared.

The world seemed to be muted, falling into an eerie silence.

Instead, a gentle warmth, like the morning sun, softly enveloped everyone.

The people, still shaken, carefully lowered their arms and opened their eyes.

Bright light shone into their slightly enlarged eyes.

A huge circular opening appeared in the sky, spreading outwards at a visible speed, dispelling the thick, low-hanging clouds that had been hanging over Konoha.

Pure and brilliant sunlight streamed through the cloud cave, slanting down from above the Shadow Rock and completely enveloping the Shadow Rock, the Konoha members, and Hyuga Kumokawa on the high platform.

The morning light, shining obliquely from behind and above, bathed Hinata Kumokawa's figure in a golden halo, his long hair and sacred robes dancing in the remaining wind.

In the square, the crowd was still in shock from the reversal of the celestial phenomena. They looked up at the figure on the high platform, stunned and speechless.

In this almost frozen silence, Hinata Kumokawa made a move.

He reached out and picked up the straw hat that symbolized the Hokage's authority, which was in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand.

Then, under everyone's gaze, he put it on his head.

"From this day forward," Hyuga Kumokawa said calmly, "I am the Fifth Hokage."

"From this day forward, no matter what happens, whether facing a self-proclaimed god or natural disasters and man-made calamities."

"There's no need to be anxious, no need to hesitate, and no need to be afraid."

The shadow of his straw hat hung low, partially obscuring the hair on his forehead. His lowered eyes appeared even more profound in the shadow, sweeping over the shocked or bewildered faces below.

"As long as you trust me and follow behind me..."

"We have no rivals ahead of us," he said.

His tone was extremely calm, neither arrogant nor encouraging, but more like announcing a settled fact, giving people an absolute sense of reliability that made them willing to entrust everything to him.

Bang!
Fireworks suddenly rose into the sky, breaking the brief silence and instantly waking everyone up.

"Godaime Hokage!"

"Hyuuga Kumokawa-sama!"

A surging wave instantly rose below, and everyone looked up at Hyuga Kumokawa on the high platform with incredibly fervent eyes.

"Konoha!"

"Konoha!"

The cheers, more enthusiastic than ever before, soared into the sky!
People waved their arms excitedly, their eyes shining with an almost religious light.

At this moment, Hyuga Kumokawa's image completely overlapped with that miraculous scene of dispelling the dark clouds and summoning the sunlight, deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone in Konoha.

Longing, reverence, admiration, love... countless spiritual energies surged like a tide, and were completely absorbed by Hinata Kumokawa at this moment.

[Hogyoku (positive 21% → 29%; negative 17%...]

Hinata Kumokawa stood quietly in the light, looking down at the people who saw him as their hope, his face beneath the straw hat calm and undisturbed.

"..." Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Hyuga Kumokawa and couldn't help but sigh.

Even he, knowing that Hyuga Kumokawa was very likely under Danzo's control, couldn't help but feel a sense of relief and appreciation.

Hyuga Kumokawa is indeed very suitable to become Hokage...
