"Let me talk about the one you are familiar with first, Hatake Kakashi. He has a chance. The advantage is that he is a fourth-generation disciple and a third-generation confidant. But the disadvantage is that he is too young."

"Compared to Kakashi, Sarutobi Asuma's chances are slimmer. If the third generation had been in business for a few more years, the results might have been different. But in any case, he is now the successor of Tadashi, and has a strong root in the Sarutobi family tree. Deep and cannot be underestimated.

"The shortcomings are the same as Kakashi's. He is too young and his strength is still difficult to convince the public."

"The third one is named Shimura Danzo. His qualifications endorsement has to be found higher up. He is a comrade in the same period as the Third Hokage, and is also a disciple and member of the elite team of the Second Hokage.

"You should be familiar with his other two classmates, namely Senior Advisor Mito Kadoen and Kaden Koharu. However, these two have been serving as advisors for a long time and have played an important role in assisting the past Hokages. There is no tradition or necessity to become full-timers. Therefore, I did not include them as candidates."

"It is said that Danzo's strength is unfathomable, but his behavior is controversial. Some family heads may also be dissatisfied with him."

Danzo Shimura.

Sasuke silently repeated the name and suddenly remembered that Master Toad once told him that this person was dissatisfied with the Uchiha family.

Therefore, Master Toad seriously suspected that this person was the mastermind behind his assassination.

Although it was later confirmed by the Beast Whispering Heart and Sound Ninto Toss, it was proved that Kabuto was not behind this person, but the order came from Orochimaru.

But no matter what, after this person becomes Hokage, he may be in a disadvantageous situation.

"The fourth one is Hinata Hizu."

Neji's voice brought Sasuke back from his thoughts again.

"This person should be a suitable candidate with the highest overall quality. Currently, the person in the village who is of the right age, is strong, and has the most management experience is none other than him. Among his peers, I am afraid there is no rival. However, from now on In terms of qualifications, he has almost no connection with the Hokage lineage."

"However, this is a turbulent time with huge variables, and anything is possible."

Sasuke nodded and continued to ask: "What about the other two?"

"I only remembered the remaining two people when I checked the information. As we mentioned earlier, the Fourth Hokage was the student of the Third Hokage's student, and they skipped one generation. So, the inheritor who was skipped in the middle , why didn’t you become Hokage?”

“After a long search, I found out that this person traveled abroad all year round and had a perverse and heroic personality. Although he cared about the village, he rarely came back.

"However, I heard recently that someone has seen him appear in the village, and he seems to have taken on a disciple. And he also participated in the battle to defend the village during the Konoha Collapse Plan."

Sasuke's heart moved, and he probably knew who Neji was talking about.

"This person is Master Jiraiya, who is known as one of the Sannin of Konoha. In terms of qualifications and strength, he is the perfect candidate for the Fifth Hokage. But the disadvantage is that he does not seem to have this ambition. To be honest, if he If he's really positive, maybe he should be the Fourth Hokage."

Sasuke was secretly surprised, he didn't expect Master Toad to be so powerful.

"Well, the last one is actually only half of it. I also learned about it while checking Jiraiya's information.

"Among the three ninjas, in addition to the rebellious ninja Orochimaru, there is also a woman named Tsunade. It is said that she is a medical ninja and her strength is quite good. However, because I heard that she was hit for something, she almost stopped interfering. It's a matter for the ninja world. Now he has already left the village and his whereabouts are unknown.

"Logically speaking, she should not be included in the candidate list. But I accidentally discovered that she is actually the first Hokage-sama, the direct granddaughter of Senju Hashirama! So with this qualification, plus the strength of one of the three ninjas , her competitiveness has been greatly improved. But no matter what, there is no way to know where this person is now, so it can only be regarded as half."

"Anyway," Neji said, feeling a little thirsty, and suggested, "Why don't you go down and buy a drink first?"

Sasuke readily agreed, and the two jumped off the roof.

The previous store had been destroyed in the war, but life went on.

Now, the owner has set up a simple shed and reopened the business again.

The two of them each bought a can of red bean soup and drank it as they walked, passing through the busy crowd and heading towards the relatively quiet riverside.

"In short," Neci took a sip of his drink and continued, "Judging from the information currently available, the people who are most likely to be elected as the Fifth Hokage this time, from high to low, are:"

"Shimura Danzo, Kakashi, Hinata Hinata, Sarutobi Asuma, Jiraiya, Tsunade."

"However, the last two people are the biggest variables. If they suddenly appear and clearly express their willingness to take up the post of Hokage, then no matter which one they are, they will eventually become the fifth generation Hokage."

Sasuke nodded, agreeing with Neji's analysis.

"So, in your opinion, what are we going to do?"

Sasuke asked.

Neji stopped, found an open space and sat down by the river again, and sighed: "I have thought about it for a long time. With our current ability and position, there is actually nothing we can do."

Then you said so much!

Sasuke couldn't help but curse.

“However, compared to not knowing anything and walking in the fog at a loss, it is not a bad thing to have a grasp of the terrain map in advance.

"Although we cannot influence this election, we must know clearly what kind of impact these people will have on us, and even Konoha, after they are elected!"

Neji drank the drink in his hand, looked at the birds flying on the water and said firmly.

"For me, the worst thing is the election of Hinata Hizashi. The best result is that Kakashi becomes the fifth Hokage."

I'm a little less lucky than you, and the worst thing for me is that Danzo Shimura gets elected, but he's the first pick.

Sasuke thought to himself.

After a pause, Neji turned to Sasuke and said, "You shouldn't have let Naruto bring Gaara back! You shouldn't have let him hand Gaara over to the higher-ups directly!"

Neji suddenly mentioned what happened that day.

In an instant, Sasuke once again thought of Naruto standing in front of him in the forest.

Suppressing the unhappiness welling up in his heart, Sasuke pretended to be relaxed and said: "What does that kind of thing mean?"

"No!" Neji said seriously, "Taking Gaara, who can transform into a one-tailed Shukaku, is a great achievement in this war! How could you give it up so easily?"

"But, without Naruto, we would both be dead," Sasuke argued.

"I'm not denying Naruto's achievements!" Neji said, "I mean, if you and Naruto had given Gaara to Kakashi to deal with.

"Then, with this battle achievement and prisoner-of-war bargaining chip, Kakashi will definitely get a lot of help in the fight for the Fifth Hokage's position!"

Chapter 63: Didn’t you tell me earlier that you had big legs?

"What's the point of talking about this now? Besides, you also said that Kakashi is too young now, while Shimura Danzo has both strength and qualifications. I think Kakashi-sensei doesn't have much chance this time."

Sasuke said.

Neji was silent. After a while, he raised his head again and said, "Anyway, you have to go to Kakashi and apply for promotion to Chunin this time on the grounds of defeating Gaara."

"I don't do this kind of thing." Sasuke decisively refused.

He has always believed that honors and titles should be earned openly and honestly based on strength, and there is no point in reaching out to ask for them.

"Listen to me," Neji said sternly, as if he had already guessed Sasuke's reaction.

"First, through this matter, Kakashi can have a reasonable reason to push the matter of your defeat of Gaara to the judges for discussion, and those judges are mostly the upper-class elites of Konoha. To you, This will be beneficial to Kakashi in the future."

"Second, as you can see, we can't do anything as a genin now. If we want to become Hokage, we must become a jounin as soon as possible, or even an elite jounin, to have the possibility of entering the council. Right now, becoming a chuunin That’s the first step.”

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

Ningci interrupted him in time: "Don't be so hasty to refuse immediately, you can think about it, right? Anyway, I can't force you."

Sasuke thought about it, then suddenly pointed across the river and said to Neji:

"Speaking of which, Jiraiya-sensei taught me ninjutsu right there."

Bang!

Neji lost his balance and almost fell.

Then he quickly stood up and pointed at Sasuke, as if he had heard something extraordinary.

For a while, all he could say was "You, you, you..." in his throat, and he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"So, you are the disciple that Jiraiya accepted?"

Sasuke nodded: "And Naruto."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!!"

Neji finally smoothed his tongue and roared loudly.

"I haven't found a chance yet."

Sasuke said innocently.

"I'm so thirsty from talking here alone that I even drank up all my drink!" Neji complained.

But his whole face was full of joy and he was in a good mood, as if he had picked up a treasure for nothing.

"Okay, very good! This way, things will be much simpler! I really saw you right!"

Neji kept talking, then slowly calmed down again and said to Sasuke, "Let's put aside the matter of Chunin! You only need to consider one thing now, which is to convince Jiraiya to become the fifth Hokage!"

Sasuke looked confused and scratched his head, having no clue.

However, he soon thought that netizens would be able to go online tonight.

So he stood up and replied: "Let's talk tomorrow!"

"Hey! Don't leave! Tell me about his personality and hobbies, and I will analyze it for you!"

Hyuga Neji, for the first time in his life, he truly felt that the opportunity to change his own destiny and that of his descendants was so close to him.

Suddenly, the emergence of information about Jiraiya greatly increased the possibility of Sasuke becoming Hokage in the future.

Compared to before, he was relying on a belief to support himself to make efforts. At this moment, Neji finally felt that the gears of fate seemed to be turning.

"No more chatting, I'm tired!"

Sasuke didn't look back, waved his hand and walked back from the river.

Night, at home.

Sasuke stared at the panel and finally saw the familiar input box again.

I saw that he couldn't wait and asked the questions he had already thought about.

"I am Sasuke Uchiha, how should I persuade my master Jiraiya to become the fifth Hokage?"
