Chapter 340 Ticket Check on the Spot

Konoha Village.

In the square in front of the Hokage building.

Many eyes focused on the stage.

This time, Uchiha Natsuki can be said to have completely torn his face with the Third Hokage.

Originally, the major forces just wanted to know who the new Hokage of Konoha Village would be.

Unexpectedly, such an accident suddenly occurred.

Although everyone didn't say anything on the surface, they all called it wonderful in their hearts.

Let's not talk about the result first.

Just this move of Uchiha Natsuki alone is worth everyone's trip.

If the votes are checked later, it will be even more fun.

Natsuki showed a smile on his face. Hey, I worked hard to canvass votes not for the position of Hokage.

The Otsutsuki are coming to destroy the world, and you are still fighting to be the Hokage. There is something wrong!

Natsuki approached the microphone:

"To be fair, I would like to ask the granddaughter of the first Hokage, the princess of the Senju clan, Tsunade-sama to check the votes."

As a candidate, Natsuki can check the votes directly.

But Natsuki insisted on asking Tsunade to come.

First, Tsunade is also one of the candidates and is qualified to check the votes.

Second, Tsunade is of noble status and enjoys great prestige among the people. What she said is more convincing than Xia Mu.

Third, Xia Mu simply wants to disgust some people.

"Tsunade-sama, are you willing?"

Xia Mu asked with a smile.

Tsunade was not told about this matter in advance, and she was also a little surprised.

But she also wanted to find out what was going on.

So she readily agreed.

"Okay!"

She took a big step and walked onto the stage.

The Third Generation had a gloomy look all the time, and the advisory elders sitting in the backstage and other elders all had solemn faces.

In public,

the daimyo of the Land of Fire was also there, as were spies from other ninja villages.

If it is found that there is cheating in the Hokage election.

The reputation of Konoha Village will suffer a devastating blow.

After Tsunade went up, she only had a brief exchange with Xia Mu.

Then she directly took the box of Orochimaru's votes to the middle.

Tsunade bent her fingers and tapped on it, and the panel flew directly to the side.

Xia Mu picked up the microphone and put it next to Tsunade.

Tsunade grabbed a few ballots and began to read: "One vote for Orochimaru!"

Then she took the ballot and showed it to Xia Mu on the stage. Xia Mu nodded and put it aside.

Then read the second ballot, the same process.

When reading the third ballot.

Xia Mu said: "Wait a minute."

Tsunade stopped, picked up the ballot and looked at it again and again, but didn't see any problems.

Xia Mu said loudly: "Please read out the names of the voters, Tsunade-sama."

Tsunade frowned and looked at the names of the voters on the ballot.

A light flashed in her head instantly.

"Voter: Sarutobi Ak..."

Then Tsunade took out the next ballot.

"Voter: Sarutobi Ryuta..."

When Xia Mu asked Tsunade to read out the names of the voters, the Third Hokage felt that he was going to...

But when the time came, he could only pick up his pipe and start smoking.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and watched all this.

Teacher, as expected, it's the same old trick.

How many more people are there in the Sarutobi clan today than in the past?

After Tsunade read out ten names, everyone below could sense the taste.

Why are all of them from the Sarutobi clan?

Xia Mu came to the microphone and said, "It's too slow to read like this. Number One, Shisui, Shizune, each of you take some votes and read."

The Third Hokage was indifferent to this, and now he couldn't stop it.

Although Number One was nominally Orochimaru's man, he was called by name, so he naturally had to read it.

And the real identity of Number One was Minato, and Minato was also very happy to see it.

How many people are there in the Sarutobi clan?

What did Xia Mu say before, "The Third Hokage is old and dark"?

The person who counted the votes from the Sarutobi clan before was at a loss.

But he could only watch the few people walk up.

Several people grabbed a handful of votes from Orochimaru's ballot box, and then stood in front of the stage and read out the names of the voters.

There was already a little commotion below, and many people began to talk.

Under the patrols of the Anbu, order was barely maintained.

Asuma in the crowd had already walked to the periphery alone and lit a cigarette.

Old man, you miscalculated this time.

…

After Tsunade finished reading the first few votes, she handed the rest of the work to No. 1, Shisui, and Shizune.

Several people knew about Xia Mu's plan, so if it was not a vote from the Sarutobi clan, they would just let it go.

Only the votes cast by the Sarutobi clan would be read out.

Several people took turns reading out the names, and everyone's attention was on the ballot, and no one paid attention to No. 1 with a hoarse voice.

The final result shocked everyone.

Orochimaru had a total of 376 votes, and a full 129 votes were cast by the Sarutobi clan.

In other words, the Sarutobi clan had 129 jonin!

There are also many people from the Tenne and Mito clans, but Xia Mu is not very interested in these two clans.

Today, I want to highlight the Sarutobi clan.

You should know that there is a promotion process for Jonin, and you must gradually rise from Genin. When you reach Jonin, there will be a difficult assessment.

Some ninja clans will even exchange some resources with the Third Hokage for a Jonin quota.

Does the Sarutobi clan really have 129 Jonin?

Yes, but these more than 100 jonins are somewhat special.

The Third Hokage controls the Anbu. When your information enters the Anbu, your own information will be completely sealed.

Only a few people can access it.

Then there are always people who are improving in the Anbu, right? Why can't these people happen to be from the Sarutobi clan?

After a year or so, these people transferred out of the Anbu and were already at the level of jonin.

What? You said they are mediocre, not like jonin.

How strange, not to mention that there are high and low strengths among jonin.

As an Anbu, isn't it normal for others to be injured in the swordplay and decline in strength?

You can't deprive such Konoha heroes of their jonin benefits and related huge subsidies.

As long as these people are not fools, they will not make such things public.

Obviously, the Sarutobi clan had been hidden very well before, and no one knew about it.

Xia Mu's prophetic advantage only knew about the Sarutobi clan. In recent years, with the support of the Third Hokage, many people have been quietly developed.

Xia Mu didn't know how the Third Hokage operated.

Orochimaru, who had experienced it, told him how the Third Hokage operated.

The Sarutobi clan didn't have that many talented people. There were many people, but they were all Chunin and special Jonin.

But the Third Hokage had a way to make them Jonin and get a lot of benefits and allowances.

Another way was to achieve his political goals.

For example, he used the same method to manipulate the selection of the Fourth Hokage.

But today, you have so many people from other villages on the scene.

Let's see what you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, are going to say.

...
