Gradually.
The handover time of the day passed like this.
Nothing happened between Namikaze Minato and the third generation.
The whole process went extremely smoothly.
This was completely beyond Namikaze Minato's expectation. He never thought that things would be so simple.
To some extent, he thought that the third generation would use some conspiracy at this time.
After all, at this point in time, if he doesn't do anything, he may really become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village.
But.
The third generation still did nothing.
This was completely beyond Namikaze Minato's imagination, and even felt a little incredible.
Until the third generation, after all the handover work was finally completed, his eyes looked towards Namikaze Minato, with a look of relief still shining in his eyes, as if nothing had happened these days, and he clapped his hands towards Namikaze Minato. Feng shui door shoulders.
"The Yondaime."
"The future of Konoha Village depends on you."
"I admire you very much."
"I firmly believe that you will become a very great Hokage in Konoha Village."
"If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me at any time!"
Sandai said sentence after sentence, his tone was very firm and resolute.
This feeling is like saying something very simple.
It's not within this scope at all.
This also surprised Namikaze Minato.
Namikaze Minato knew what the third generation had experienced, and he also knew what Santai had done in the process.
So when I heard these words, I felt very ironic.
Because without these things, everything might not develop to what it is now. It is precisely because the third generation has done a lot of things, but sanctimoniously behaves like he has never done anything, which greatly makes the He felt an indescribable sense of irony.
It was precisely because of these feelings that he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
It was even difficult for Namikaze Minato to look directly at the third generation in front of him, because the changes brought to him were too huge.
Because in his impression, the third generation has always been a very good person. It was not until he came back from the third time that he felt that he was standing on the battlefield that he discovered the true face of the third generation. But it is not until he now discovers the true face of the third generation. After the real virus, he discovered that the third generation had put the mask of hypocrisy on his face again, which made him feel unspeakable nausea.
It feels like someone who knows what kind of person he is and puts on a mask in front of you.
It totally looks like it gives people a particularly uncomfortable feeling.
even.
The third generation of Minato Namikaze regarded him as a fool.
An absolute fool.
It's as if everything you did before can't be seen at all, or even if you can see it, it will be acted out in front of you.
It doesn't give you any real feeling at all.
throughout the process.
It's totally like being deceived.
In particular, he felt a very strong sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.
With this feeling.
Although Namikaze Minato completed the handover of his rights.
But he really didn't feel any comfortable feeling in his heart.
It seemed that the whole process was extremely painful inside.
At least.
He didn't want to go through it again.
He felt that in the process of getting along with the third generation, no matter what expressions the third generation made or what words he said, it was a kind of trampling on the position of Hokage.
After all, it is very sacred not to use the position of Hokage before resigning, so that when he looked at the statue of Hokage Rock in the past, his heart was full of reverence for these three people.
Even now.
Namikaze Minato still had a very strong respect for those three seniors, but he had very strong doubts about the third generation's character.
After all, what happened before was too shocking.
Those things were impossible for him to forget, and they completely shattered many of his concepts.
any time in the past.
Even Namikaze Minato didn't feel that strongly.
Because he feels that the entire Konoha Village is like home to him, and his worship of Naruto has been cultivated since he was a child.
If I had given him such a signal from the beginning, he would not have had a particularly big feeling.
The saddest feeling for him now is that all this seems to be very impactful.
It seems like everything has been turned upside down.
It subverted his cognition and his concept.
I've never felt that Naruto was so ironic.
so.
After Namikaze Minato thought that he was going to become the Fourth Hokage, the biggest effort he had to make was to change people's impressions of Hokage.
Now we cannot let the name of Hokage continue like this.
Especially when the three generations have been exposed to various negative news one after another.
People now feel like they are watching a joke towards the third generation.
Just after it ended, and before it even subsided, Xiaonan's incident came again.
Although Xiaonan's matter is related to him.
But Namikaze Minato originally planned to arrange for Konan to join Konoha Village after he became the Fourth Hokage.
I really never thought of such a thing, but let the third generation do it first.
After the Third Generation did such a thing, the most direct impact was that a huge qualitative change occurred in Konoha Village. Everyone's public opinion towards the Third Generation completely changed at this moment.
This feeling is never as simple as it seems.
That is the subversion of a kind of cognition.
In fact, Namikaze Minato was not the only one who was subverted, but everyone in Konoha Village felt this way.
After all, the three generations have always presented them with a very kind image.
Many people even said that the third generation was the most amiable Hokage.
But now it's time.
Over the past few years, all the mechanical and electrical foundations they had built had completely collapsed.
No one can continue to feel this way.
Even they all understand that Sandai may be the most kind person.
He has always presented a mask in front of people, and the ugly face behind the mask has never been imagined by them. Even now, they are too lazy to evaluate this person as long as they hear the third generation.
There's so much going on here.
Speaking of which, they, the people of Konoha Village, have lost count and are unwilling to count issues involving the third generation.
Or if someone really wants to do it, he may have to write a long notebook before he can finally come up with such an answer.
This can no longer be explained clearly in one or two sentences, nor can it be summarized and understood in one or two things.
The problems here are real, but they continue to impact everyone's understanding.
It is precisely because of these things.
Everyone in Konoha Village is thinking about these things in their hearts, but they only stay at the level of thinking. No one wants to have too many different feelings.
For the solemnity of Konoha Village, they are no longer willing to discuss the current issue any more, because in their opinion, it is meaningless. After all, Konoha exists, and it belongs to the fourth generation tomb. In this era, as long as the replacement of Hokage is completed, then the things done by the past three generations are not unforgivable to them.
certainly.
on this matter.
It's not so absolute.
Because many things are not things that they can forgive or not forgive.
So subjective meaning.
After all, no matter what, they are still essentially the ninjas of Konoha Village, and they cannot make a particularly big change in Konoha Village.
No matter what the third generation has done, the third generation is also a high-level matter, and those who are worthy of the Fire Nation Daimingfu can treat all the three generations. As ordinary Konoha villages, all the people can do is to eat melons. Just watching a show.
In addition, everything that happened has no way to solve it for them, and they cannot solve it. Everything here will be like this, passing by so easily, because they did not punish the third generation at all. Ability.
No matter what the third generation did in the end, they just watched the fun.
Of course, this is very satisfying for them. After all, no one had the ability to see this before.
They had never had the opportunity to know these things before.
That is to say.
For them.
They didn't know whether the high-level officials of Konoha Village or the Hokage in the past did not have these problems at all, but these problems were not made known to them and were not exposed in front of them, but the matter of the Third Generation was exposed in front of them. , only let them know an identification that they didn't know before, and they also had a clearer perception of Konoha Village.
In the face of this kind of thing.
They have stronger feelings in their hearts.
so.
There is no such strong resentment towards the third generation.
After all, to put it bluntly, these things really have no meaning.
They also all know how to deal with the third generation.
Because as long as the third generation is no longer the Hokage of Konoha Village, everything for them has been solved.
These will scatter everything with the wind.
All of a sudden.
The people of Konoha Village have also begun to look forward to it. They are all looking forward to when they can return to a carefree life and let the new Hokage of Konoha Village lead their village forward and let the entire village move forward. The world is at peace and no longer independent of war.
Often times a new beginning is a new hope.
For them, they have all discovered that the era of Hokage ruled by the third generation has come to an end. During the Third Ninja War, what was exposed was a feeling of sunset, and now the era of the fourth generation is a rising sun. rising moment.
At this moment.
No one can be more of a dead man.
Their mood is more willing to focus on looking forward to the future situation.
It's a completely different feeling.
…
After completing the handover.
Under the blessing of three generations.
Namikaze Minato just stayed in the Hokage's office, and it was the Third Generation who left.
In such a situation.
Namikaze Minato was sitting in the office of the Hokage of Konoha Village, looking at the table covered with scrolls. Everything on it was part of the Hokage's daily work. In the past, the third generation was doing it, but now he needs to accept it. Dealt with it.
The power of the entire Konoha Village has been completely handed over to him. Now he is the de facto Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village. The only thing missing is a handover ceremony.
Under such a situation, the fourth generation, Minato Namikaze, looked at the instruments in the office, but there was no feeling of joy in his heart.
Namikaze Minato had talked countless times about what it would be like when he was sitting in the Hokage's office. He felt that he could change the politics of Konoha Village with a stroke of a pen and let everything follow him. The idea makes it even more special.
But now it's time.
over time.
I have experienced so many things.
Namikaze Minato suddenly felt that everything was not as simple as he imagined, and the feeling after gaining the position of Hokage did not make him feel so happy.
It seems like everything is an indescribable feeling.
Just like something that he had been thinking about so much in the past, when he actually got it, he didn't seem to have the same feeling of missing it as before when he didn't get it.
"What's wrong with me?"
Minato Namikaze looked towards the window. Through the window, her eyes fell on the Hokage Rock. There were normally three avatars here, and after he officially completed the handover, his avatars would be built on top one after another. He will become the fourth generation of Konoha Village and the annals of Konoha Village forever.
But this situation didn't make him feel particularly happy now.
Namikaze Minato also had a lot of doubts in his heart. He originally thought that he would feel very comfortable at this moment, but now he no longer had such a feeling. He felt that everything seemed so ordinary.
"Isn't this what I want?"
But why is he muttering to himself? He feels empty now. This feeling is just like when he was in school in the past, he had been looking forward to the holiday, but when the holiday really came, he had to make friends with those classmates. After parting, he didn't feel comfortable because he got a holiday.
It turned out that he himself couldn't explain this strange mood.
And I don't know why I think so.
"No!"
Namikaze Minato shook his head immediately after a moment, his eyes gradually becoming determined.
"This is what I want!"
"I want to become the Hokage of Konoha Village!"
"I hope to change Konoha Village with my hands!"
"I wish for peace in the entire ninja world!"
"I want to be the greatest Hokage Konoha Village has ever seen!"
“…”
Namikaze Minato muttered to himself sentence after sentence.
In the past, I had only imagined these words in my mind, and before I said them all, I had only said them to Qingyu once on the Hokage Rock.
But he didn't say anything else in the follow-up period.
He didn't even say it to Kushina, because he kept these words silently in his heart. If he said it out loud, this would be a big problem.
After all, when he was young, he still shouted slogans about his ambitions, saying that there was no problem in wanting to become Hokage, but when he really came into contact with Hokage, if he said it again, it might lead to death.
Even now.
Namikaze Minato was also aware of the current problem.
At any point in time in the past, he had never experienced anything like this in Konoha Village, but now he had truly walked out of the shadow of a sword.
once.
During those years.
Namikaze Minato never recalled it carefully.
But when he really came here.
He was sitting in the Hokage's office, looking at the avatar derived from the Hokage outside through the window, and he suddenly realized the real problem in his heart.
He began to think about what had happened in the past.
Especially after the Third Ninja War, the scenes he saw when he returned to the village kept appearing in front of him one after another.
After these things appeared, they began to refresh some of the impressions in his heart. At that time, he never had time to recall because he decided to keep moving forward, but now when he recalled what had happened.
He still has a very lingering feeling.
Even he himself couldn't explain this feeling clearly.
Because what is happening now seems to be going well, but the journey is full of dangers.
If he hadn't mastered the immortal mode when he came back, or he hadn't reached such a powerful level in the flying thunder god technique.
Then maybe when he is intercepted and killed by all the five great ninja villages, he may not really return to the Leaf Village.
Minato Namikaze raised his right hand and touched the desktop of the Hokage's office, feeling the texture on it. He felt more and more that the day was very close, but he couldn't relax in his heart. Perhaps the most fundamental reason was because The transition to the position of Hokage has not yet been truly completed.
Namikaze Minato's heart was always hanging.
He has not truly let go of the knot in his heart.
Immediately afterwards.
Namikaze Minato stood up slowly. He wanted to find Aoyu, because tomorrow was the ceremony of changing Hokage.
Before the official handover of the Hokage, he needs to communicate with Qingyu. As long as he understands some of Qingyu's thoughts, he will have confidence in his heart, especially for the weird things that the third generation did today, he needs to communicate with Qingyu. Then get an answer.
There were many things that he couldn't really see clearly.
It was he who thought Qingyu could do it.
Qingyu has very unique opinions on many things.
Namikaze Minato felt that after he asked Aoyu these questions, he could, to a large extent, have stronger confidence and sufficient confidence in tomorrow's handover ceremony.
Only the real one became Hokage.
Namikaze Minato felt that his heart could relax.
