Namikaze Minato knew very clearly that this matter had nothing to do with him. He had done absolutely nothing. He did want to become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village, but he would choose a very fair way to compete. these locations.
He was also under the Hokage Rock at that time.
After hearing what Orochimaru and Danzo said, he was also in a very confused state in his heart.
Don't understand!
I don’t understand!
Namikaze Minato had no idea why Orochimaru and the Dankai would say such a thing.
And when they were saying such things, the two people were echoing the Third Hokage above the Hokage's office. They looked at each other and seemed to imply that the key to the problem originated from the Third Hokage.
After Orochimaru and Danzo said these things, the two people disappeared together, and no one has found them since. Whether they are people from the Leaf Village or the ninja world, it seems that these two people have disappeared from the world. Same.
Is there such a coincidence in the world
It will make two people disappear in an instant!
Namikaze Minato shook his head, he felt that there must be a lot of strange things here, but he didn't know what the Qi Acupoint was, and then something happened that made him still feel full of questions.
That was the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. After being questioned by all the people in the Leaf Village, he did not defend himself at all. The only thing he said was to announce to the world that he resigned from the position of Hokage.
From the understanding of the people at the scene, they felt that this was Sandai taking the blame and resigning, and almost acquiesced that these things were not done by him.
This situation is not particularly simple.
It was because Sandai didn't say anything that he left a lot of room for imagination about this matter.
At the beginning, many people in Konoha Village were verbally criticizing the Third Generation, and even felt that they were blind. They once thought that the Third Generation was a very great Hokage, but now their whole personality and image have completely collapsed. He is actually such a scheming person who will do whatever it takes for the sake of Hokage, and even affects the normal development of Konoha Village.
It was during that period that the reputation of the third generation dropped to the lowest level ever, and it seemed that it had never been criticized like this before.
Sandai's whole heart actually experienced a round of pain that was like a cyber storm at that time. What he cherished most in his life was his own feathers, but these feathers were ruthlessly shattered bit by bit at this time.
Of course, Namikaze Minato didn't know what the Third Generation was thinking about these things. He just felt that the Third Generation had indeed left a lot of blank spaces without explanation, and these blank spaces could be filled with new words at any time. Let this matter develop from a completely different angle.
Now after talking to Aoba, Namikaze Minato is even more convinced that all of this was designed by the third generation.
The blank space left by the third generation at that time was just for the sake of whitewashing in the future.
At that time, Sandai did not give any explanation, which made him look very innocent. At that time, people thought it was because of his research qualifications, but later on, some people may think that there is something hidden in it.
This is exactly what he guessed.
Namikaze Minato has been able to hear some faint sounds in the past two days, and he feels that the third generation has been handled carelessly.
After all, no one at the scene had heard the third generation's explanation, and no one in the entire Konoha village had any evidence on what the third generation had done.
As the saying goes…
In the current situation, the third generation has not admitted guilt.
Not pleading guilty would be tantamount to a gesture that could say he is still a suspect.
As long as he is a suspect, another kind of evidence may prove his innocence at any time. If this exists at any time, he may be turned over at any time.
Namikaze Minato has discovered that many people are now discussing the issue of the third generation taking the blame and resigning at that time. He thinks that the whirlwind of public opinion at that time was a bit too much for the third generation. After all, it is not yet completely certain that the third generation is such a person.
If he waits until the third generation confesses in confusion, it will definitely be the third generation’s fault, and it won’t be an exaggeration to say so at that time.
But at this time point, it is not certain whether everyone misunderstood the third generation, which made things become what they are now.
but.
The process of history is still developing normally.
It is precisely because the third generation has fallen into the whirlpool of public opinion that even the current third generation has not given any explanation. There is no evidence to prove that he is guilty, and there is no evidence to prove that he is innocent.
If that's the case, then...
Anyway, it is a development strategy that focuses on the image of Konoha Village, and the third generation has taken the blame and resigned, so the position of Hokage of Konoha Village is vacant, and a new Hokage must be chosen.
After discussions between Konoha Village advisors and the Fire Country daimyo, Konoha Village began to determine a new response, and that person was Namikaze Minato.
Namikaze Minato is about to inherit the Fire Camp of Konoha Village and become the fourth Hokage of Konoha Village in a week.
That is to say.
at that moment.
Konoha Village will complete the replacement of Hokage.
This situation spread to the ears of the people of Konoha Village, and they immediately suppressed the previous doubts. After all, this is a new thing, and new things often replace the old things.
This kind of thing is extremely common.
Sometimes when something happens, people are filled with indignation and even hope to deal with the initiator of these things to the end. However, as time goes by, these things slowly disappear and are not so popular anymore, and people just Started not to care anymore.
They don't even know what happened to these things in the end. They are just concerned about the new things happening now.
Human attention is limited, even among the masses.
If you want to eat melons, you must also eat the latest melons. What will happen to some old melons after eating them? What is the solution? Many things have become nothing.
Just like the three generations thing.
The third generation resigned as Hokage without saying a word.
Although the third generation did not give any explanation and could not be sure whether the third generation was really guilty or innocent, these issues are no longer important at this time point. It seems that with the process of history, it seems that A huge history book, as this page is turned, a new chapter has ushered in, and that chapter belongs to the era of the Fourth Hokage.
What people are now beginning to pay attention to is when will the Hokage Succession Ceremony be held and when will the fourth generation Hokage of Konoha Village officially enter the process of history? Let the whole world know that Konoha Village is about to rise, and let people clearly understand that Konoha The village is still very powerful.
All the previous dark and bad things have passed. After all, things have happened, and it is meaningless to go back and trace them back. A new beginning will give them endless imagination, and they begin to dream about Konoha Village. Under the leadership of the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Shuito, we have entered a new chapter, allowing Konoha Village to glow with the glory it had when Yuan Ben's first Hokage Senju Hashirama ruled, and allowing Konoha Village to bloom as a ninja again. On top of the world, standing like a giant.
But now that people in the village are waiting for Namikaze Minato to become the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato is very uneasy in his heart.
These uneasiness made it difficult for him to describe his feelings.
Everything is so sudden.
When he came back, he was intercepted by the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and attacked by the ninjas at the root of Konoha Village. After he entered Konoha Village, Orochimaru and Danzo both blew themselves up. At the last moment, the third generation took the blame and resigned and allowed himself Becoming the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village, the occurrence of these things made her feel extremely uneasy. She always felt as if there was a script guiding him, which made him find it very difficult to describe his feelings. This It is a feeling that destiny cannot be controlled by oneself.
Namikaze Minato didn't like this feeling very much. He preferred to hold celebrities in his hands, so he found Qingyu and talked with Qingyu and decided to fight back again, because he now understood that these things were not sudden. What happened was planned by three generations behind the scenes.
It is precisely because of things like this that Namikaze Minato doesn't care about this anymore. He has already prepared mentally for a decisive battle with the third generation. It is also precisely because of things like this that he has experienced a lot of pull, making it impossible for him to focus on it. Dealing with Xiaonan.
Now that he heard Qingyu's words, he felt that what Qingyu said was very correct.
Xiaonan's identity is two-sided.
On one side, he is a traitor to the Rain Country, and on the other side, he is a disciple of Master Jiraiya.
Although the status of a traitor to the Rain Country will make it impossible for him to continue like this, forcibly bringing Konan into the Leaf Village may cause him to be criticized by the three generations of forces, and even It is possible that this originally small matter could be expanded to a very serious level.
But it has to be said that if you change the perspective and take the identity of Teacher Jiraiya, then it is equivalent to entrusting this problem to Teacher Jiraiya, which also gives him a lot of time to deal with everything that happens here. And it can allow him to spend the years before becoming Hokage in peace.
"Qingyu, do you have any detailed thoughts?"
Namikaze Minato immediately moved down, but Qingyu looked over and expressed his own doubts. When it came to this, he felt that it was very possible. If he was allowed to think about it by himself, he could also come up with a perfect strategy, but Now his energy is really not enough, his brain is very groggy, and even now he has not eaten a bowl of ramen.
Namikaze Minato doesn't want to waste too many brain cells on these things anymore, because he feels that these things are not worth letting her spend so much energy. After all, there is Qingyu next to him, and he trusts Qingyu very much, as long as he The plan that Qingyu said that satisfied him could be implemented directly. He chose to outsource this way of thinking to Qingyu.
"some."
Aoyu nodded immediately after hearing this. He didn't know what Namikaze Minato was thinking. He had already thought about everything here.
Now it’s just a matter of doing it.
Especially since he originally planned to let Xiaonan stay in Konoha Village, so this is just the result of his step-by-step guidance to get here.
On the surface, what Aoyu wanted to say was because of Minato Namikaze's inquiry, and because Minato Namikaze wanted Konan to stay here, but he needed a reason, and Qingyu helped him come up with such a reason.
But in fact, it was Qingyu who silently controlled all of this, and he was still the mastermind in the dark.
"It's still what I said just now..."
Aoba spoke slowly, instantly attracting the attention of Namikaze Minato and Konan again, including the hand on the other side, and they all looked at it curiously, because they all discovered that at this time point, On the other hand, Qingyu's thoughts were the clearest in the audience.
"We can announce to the outside world that Lord Jiraiya is about to return to Konoha Village."
"Xonan's identity is Lord Jiraiya's disciple."
"She came here to seek refuge with Lord Jiraiya!"
"Also because of her status as Lord Jiraiya's disciple, it is more troublesome to deal with it. We chose to let Lord Jiraiya make the decision himself."
"In this way, until Lord Jiraiya returns to Konoha Village, Konan can be temporarily allowed to stay in Konoha Village."
"This will not allow anyone to make irresponsible remarks. After all, Xiaonan is Lord Jiraiya's disciple. Talking about her is equivalent to talking about Lord Jiraiya."
Aoba said one sentence after another. He explained this truth very clearly. It could be said that it was instantly freed from Namikaze Minato's knot.
"Can!"
Namikaze Minato immediately nodded and looked at Aoyu with admiration flashing in his eyes. He now feels more and more that Aoyu is a very suitable person to stay by his side because of the problems he will deal with when he becomes Hokage. There are a lot of things going on, and the emergencies he encounters will be beyond his imagination, so having such an extremely calm and clear-thinking person by his side can provide him with great help.
The most important thing is…
In Namikaze Minato's eyes, Aoyu has a very good relationship with him and is extremely loyal to him. This is the most critical point for him to be reused.
All of a sudden.
The way Namikaze Minato looked at Aoyu also changed.
First there was what happened in the morning, and then there was what happened just now, two things in succession, whether it was judging the third generation, or just discussing Konan, and finally deciding that Jiraiya would take over these issues.
It can be seen from the judgment of these things that Qingyu is a person with very clear logical thinking.
It is precisely because of such a choice.
Namikaze Minato felt that Aoyu was very trustworthy.
Namikaze Minato knew that Aoyu's thoughts were very fast, but he had never paid much attention to them. The last time they discussed it was when they discussed the situation of each village at Hokage Rock. At that time, he found that Aoyu was very fast. of vision.
However, it did not receive corresponding attention, and many of Qingyu's words were not discovered.
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly came to Namikaze Minato's mind.
perhaps…
If Konohagakure had made some decisions according to Qingyu's ideas, the Third Ninja War might have been avoided.
After all, Qingyu's ideas at that time were too advanced.
Even he felt that there were some possibilities, but it would be very troublesome to implement. If he really wanted to do this, drastic reforms would be needed.
But at that time, Konoha Village refused any reform. After all, even Tsunade-sama's proposal to add a medical ninja to any ninja team was rejected.
