Chapter 105 104: Have I Said I'm Going?

Chapter 105 Chapter 104

"Hokage Half Sleeve..."

Ri Zhan and the others were startled, they didn't expect Zhili to make such a request.

You must know that Naruto's half-sleeve is of great significance. The holder of the half-sleeve is equivalent to the successor of the next generation of Hokage, and even has some rights of Hokage. He can mobilize departments at all levels, including Anbu, without interfering with Hokage.

"Does she want to be Hokage?"

Hirizhan judged Jiri's intention to ask for Hokage's half-sleeved sleeves, and his thoughts were complicated.

Hashirama once said that Konoha owed Uchiha a Hokage, but Hirazan did not think that Uchiha had a place in Hokage, especially when the relationship between the Uchiha tribe and Konoha was tense.

Tsunade is destined to be Hokage, but she is young after all, even if she succeeds Hokage, it will be several years later, but Zhisato is different, her current fame and strength have reached the peak, once she is established, she can take office at any time.

"Why, can't you give it to me?"

Seeing Hirizhan's troubled expression on his face, Zhili frowned in displeasure.

"Who else can I give Hokage half-sleeves to me? Can't my Uchiha clan be Hokage?"

The coldness in the tone permeated, and the surrounding air faintly froze.

Beiliuhu panicked for a moment, not understanding why the good-looking atmosphere suddenly became tense, and he was afraid that Jiri would turn the table with Konoha's senior management in a fit of anger.

Hinata Zero's eyes flashed, thinking that to be a woman is to be domineering like Mr. Jiri! What kind of caged bird go away, I can't help my fate!

Watanabe sat beside him calmly.

It's nothing, it's not surprising.

He knew Zhili very well, and he was used to her look of not paying attention to anyone and hanging around.

Even the daimyo of Uzumaki was called around by Zhili as a younger brother, so she would only kneel and stick her ass in front of her. Who else could she not show her face?

"Jiri's words are serious." Hirizhan smiled slightly, "Hokage is the Hokage of everyone in Konoha. As long as the ability is enough, even ordinary people can take the role."

"Based on your contribution to Konoha and your qualifications, it is indeed enough to hold the Hokage half-sleeve. In the next few days, I will make an announcement in the village about your possession of the Hokage half-sleeve."

Hiruza was forced to make concessions.

He knew that the Uchiha clan really wanted to create a Hokage, and now Jiri had just made great contributions to Konoha, if she insisted on asking for Hokage's half-sleeve, neither Hirazan nor the village's high-level officials would be able to refuse, otherwise I'm afraid it would make Ben The Uchiha people who were dissatisfied with Konoha directly rebelled.

Hirizhan didn't know, but the reason Zhili asked for Hokage's half-sleeved sleeves was not to be Hokage, she had no interest in Hokage.

She just wants to use Naruto as a bargaining chip. If her and Watanabe's deeds are exposed in the future, and Mito uses his power to forcibly transfer Watanabe from her team, she can use Naruto's half sleeve to refute Mito back.

Zhili only cares about Watanabe. Everything she does now is for Watanabe. She does not allow anyone to let Watanabe leave her, not even Watanabe himself.

After ending the topic of Naruto's half-sleeves, Hiruza did not treat the other three members of Zhili's team badly, and regarded their being ambushed by the ninjas of Yuyin Village this time as completing an S-level mission, registered it in the resume file, and paid for it by the village. They give out S-level rewards.

In addition, Hinata also opened up promotion channels for the three of them. Beiliuhu and Hinata Zero can be exempted from the exam and promoted to Chunin, while Watanabe is promoted to Jonin.

"It turned out to be a ninja!"

After hearing about Watanabe's promotion level from Hirizan's mouth, Bei Liuhu and Hinata Rei were surprised.

Jonin is the cutting-edge combat force in the village, and he can already lead the new students to perform tasks like Jiri.

The three of them graduated from the ninja school at the same time at the beginning. Hiruku and Hinata Rei did not expect that Watanabe would leave them far away after only two months had passed. The gap between the two sides was indeed a bit big.

"Thank you for the promotion, Senior Hokage." Watanabe said politely.

For the sake of Tsunade, he will definitely enter Konoha's senior management in the future, and Hirizhan directly promoted him to Jonin today, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"This is the treatment you deserve." Hirizhan smiled kindly, "Mito-sama told me roughly what happened that night, you played a vital role in the reason why Jiri was able to defeat Sansho Hanzo, you Today's combat power may even reach the level of an elite jōnin, if you are still treated as a jōnin or zhongnin, then Konoha is burying talents."

Watanabe is very smart. Hearing this, he immediately understood that it was Mito who really promoted him, and Mito greeted him.

"Now it seems that I made the right decision to confiscate you as a disciple." Ri Zhan continued to smile kindly, "If you became my disciple, you would definitely not progress as fast as you are now."

It's good that Hirizhan didn't mention the matter of recruiting apprentices, but when he mentioned Watanabe, he felt resentful.

If Hirizhan had accepted him that day, he and Tsunade would have had a sweet relationship, and he wouldn't be so entangled with Jiri, and he didn't know how to face the two of them in the future.

Just when Watanabe was about to casually deal with Hizun politely——

"Of course, you can't be as good as I taught Watanabe." Zhili interrupted abruptly, stating the facts in a calm tone.

Watanabe: "..."

He has too many things to say, and you feel your conscience and say, as a master, what are you teaching me?

To be precise, I taught you a lot of postures...

"Hehe, maybe Zhili, you are more suitable to be a teacher than me." Ri Zhan's originally kind smile was a little more awkward, and then changed the subject:

"By the way, Watanabe, although you have been promoted to Jonin, your experience and qualifications are shallow after all. From now on, you will continue to perform missions in a team with Hyuga Rei and Hyuki, and I will make other arrangements for you after you have experienced it. "

Watanabe has no objection: "Yes."

Hirizhan nodded: "In addition, I have already assigned the new guide of the three of you, the Jonin. The other party works in the Anbu. Although he is not as good as Jiri, he is also a very good elite Jonin..."

"Did I say I was leaving?" Zhili interrupted.

Ri Zhan was taken aback for a moment, and it took a while to realize what she meant.

"The Uchiha tribe has been waiting for Jiri to come back to succeed the patriarch some time ago." Hirizhan simply explained, "Among the younger generation of Uchiha, only Jiri can convince the public. I know you can no longer serve as Watanabe and the others. Instruct Jonin, don’t tell me specifically…”

"I don't need you to worry about my affairs."

Zhili always had a cold look on his face, and this time he still interrupted Ri Zhan before he could finish speaking.

"I can lead Watanabe for a while longer, and it won't be too late to succeed the patriarch when the three of them are able to stand alone."

As soon as this remark came out, except for Watanabe who had been psychologically prepared, everyone present was surprised.
