Uchiha Sōko only promised Tsunade that he wouldn't compete for the Fourth Hokage position, but he didn't promise not to compete for the Fifth Hokage position.
Anyway, it won't take much longer.
By then, his long-planned scheme was almost complete.
Chapter 117, The Fourth Hokage
Time flew by, and a few days later, the Third Hokage and the others returned to Konoha and immediately summoned Minato Namikaze.
It was already noon when he walked out of the Hokage's office.
Back home, Minato Namikaze still had a smile on his face.
He has received clear information today that he is now the Fourth Hokage in the true sense.
Only the Third Hokage and his men were left to inform the entire village of this news.
Minato was still somewhat dazed that things had gone so smoothly.
He knew very well that the smooth progress of this matter was inseparable from the support and guidance of Uchiha Sō.
This made him understand the current situation and what he needed to do.
"I really have to thank Mr. Elephant..."
Minato Namikaze muttered to himself, though he knew that even if Uchiha Sō hadn't reminded him or supported him, he still had a considerable chance.
But he will definitely not be that well prepared, and things will not go so smoothly.
"But I'm afraid Elephant-kun's thoughts aren't that simple, are they?"
Minato Namikaze was relatively objective when facing the Uchiha clan.
But he knew even better that Uchiha Sho, who was able to suppress the many factions within the Uchiha clan and hold power over the Uchiha clan and the security department, was definitely not someone who would easily give up the position of Hokage.
He knew all too well the Uchiha clan's yearning for the Hokage.
After all, his Uchiha disciple talks about becoming Hokage all the time.
However, Minato thought this was actually a good thing.
The person who leads the Uchiha clan is a capable, thoughtful individual who yearns to become Hokage.
Therefore, the possibility of the Uchiha clan breaking with the village and rebelling would be greatly reduced.
As for how to treat the person who gave him guidance, Minato Namikaze has figured it out over this period of time.
It's probably impossible to make him a part of your team.
Regardless of whether Uchiha Sō would agree, the other ninja clans of Konoha would not agree either.
He only realized this after his teacher, Jiraiya, reminded him.
"I was so excited that I got a little arrogant..."
Minato Namikaze was also a young man, and when he knew that he would most likely become the Fourth Hokage, he inevitably became a little arrogant.
In Konoha, apart from the time of the First Hokage, which clan would obediently submit?
Becoming your own supporter and ally, just like Danzo and the Third Hokage, is the most practical approach.
No wonder the Second Hokage went to great lengths to integrate all the clans into Konoha.
The existence of clan ninjas sometimes benefits Konoha, and sometimes hinders its continued development...
"It seems that there are some things that need to be clarified with Elephant-kun and others."
Minato Namikaze was a very intelligent person, and he quickly came up with a solution.
"Wanting to become Hokage is no problem; we're all members of Konoha."
However, everyone should aim to develop Konoha and not resort to underhanded tactics against each other.
What I need to do is unite everyone, develop Konoha properly, and fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of the Hokage.
The work ahead will not be easy, but at this moment, Shuimen's heart is full of enthusiasm.
He decided to visit Uchiha Sō later to avoid any misunderstanding.
As he slowly walked into the living room, he saw Kushina Uzumaki preparing food.
This heartwarming scene brought him back to his senses, and a warm smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
"Fool, what are you standing there for?"
Kushina Uzumaki immediately noticed, turned around and saw Minato, and walked over with a smile.
"Why did the Third Hokage summon you over so soon after returning? Is there something he needs to instruct you on?"
Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze found it somewhat amusing.
During this period, the Third Hokage did indeed "guide" him quite a bit, which reduced the time he spent with Kushina Uzumaki.
This made Kushina secretly resentful.
"This isn't about giving pointers..."
Minato shook his head, feigning seriousness.
"What's that?"
Kushina was a little curious.
"Um……"
Minato Namikaze was secretly pleased, but deliberately kept a straight face.
"He made me the Fourth Hokage."
"I see. It's not a big deal if you don't get elected. You just didn't get elected..."
Minato Namikaze's expression made Kushina Uzumaki think it was bad news.
For a moment, she hadn't reacted yet, and instead comforted Minato.
But as she was talking, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
It sounds like Minato is suggesting he should be in charge?
Kushina Uzumaki widened her eyes and asked.
"Wait! What did you just say?"
"Hey!"
Minato Namikaze dropped his serious expression and put on his signature smile.
"I have been appointed to serve as the fourth generation."
Kushina was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and then excitedly hugged Minato.
"Okay...okay...congratulations, Minato!"
Naruto!
This is the Hokage!
This is not only Minato's dream, but also her dream.
She originally thought that the Fourth Hokage had little to do with Minato.
After all, the Legendary Sannin of Konoha are still around, and their prestige in Konoha is extremely high.
Of the two Konoha stars, Minato had the most ordinary background.
Normally, no matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be Minato's turn.
Who knew that Orochimaru would suddenly defect, and everything became unpredictable again.
In the end, it was her water gate that succeeded!
Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze held Kushina in his arms, creating a warm atmosphere, and he was filled with anticipation for the future...
The next day, news of Minato Namikaze becoming the Fourth Hokage spread throughout Konoha.
The entire Leaf Village was in an uproar.
Although everyone knew that Minato Namikaze had participated in the selection for the Fourth Hokage, not many people thought he could actually succeed.
Minato Namikaze, who came from humble beginnings, successfully turned his life around, which greatly inspired all the villagers of Konoha.
Although Minato Namikaze has not yet officially joined the Hokage Building, Konoha is already immersed in cheers.
Uchiha Sō also received the news immediately.
At the same time, he also received an invitation from Kakashi to attend the Fourth Hokage's dinner party.
Uchiha Sho accepted the invitation.
Perfect timing! He thought he could talk to Minato about "funding" the Kaguya clan's rebellion.
After all, judging from his interactions with this fourth generation leader.
Although this person has thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is not a political novice...
Selling the weapons and supplies that Konoha had discarded to the Kaguya clan would also be a way to annoy Obito.
Let's "strengthen" the relationship between the master and apprentice.
After all, Obito is the one who is in control of Kirigakure right now.
He came to the Uchiha to cause trouble, and the Uchiha wanted to cause some trouble for his own rear as well. It's a matter of reciprocity!
I imagine Obito will thank him properly. After all, Obito created the Land of Blood Mist in order to take revenge on Kirigakure, intending to bury an entire generation of Kirigakure.
It would be a waste to just let them die quietly like this.
Why not make use of them and let the Kaguya clan, who are "sponsored" by Konoha, lead them in causing a ruckus?
Then, Uchiha Eiji can have the Heavenly Court clean up the mess, perfect!
