Chapter 140 Orochimaru: Happiness Comes Too Suddenly

Happiness came too suddenly, and Aunt Snake is still a little confused.

What?

I will inherit the position of the fifth Hokage?

Is it true?

"Teacher Tobirama! This..."

Sarutobi on the side immediately interrupted and tried to stop him.

"Monkey, do you have any opinions?"

"I..."

"If you have any opinions, keep them to yourself! You haven't been able to choose a successor to Hokage for so many years. Do you think the inheritance of Hokage is a joke? Since you can't find one, I will help you choose one!"

Tobirama cursed loudly, with a sense of regret.

Monkey's poor performance in his later years also makes him, as a teacher, extremely embarrassed!

Fortunately, his grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the next generation are still excellent, at least saving some face for himself.

In this case.

It's better to let Orochimaru try to be Hokage. He won't be worse than Sarutobi, who is already old.

Besides, the younger generation who can inherit and improve his forbidden techniques must not be a fool.

"Tobirama..."

Hashirama suddenly spoke.

"Hmm? Big brother, do you have any objection?"

"No. It's just that you said that the succession of the Hokage must be democratically elected, didn't you?"

Hiss...

Tobirama took a deep breath, feeling absurd that he had thrown a boomerang that year but now it hit himself.

Did he say that democracy was necessary?

What he meant was that it was undemocratic to let the evil Uchiha Madara be the Hokage!

What's wrong with you, big brother?

Why do you choose the critical moment to sabotage yourself?

"Big brother! This is not the same time!"

"In times of crisis, you must have the courage to make decisions. The village doesn't have time to waste on electing a Hokage..."

"Besides, you let Madara succeed to the throne..."

"Uh... that makes sense!"

Hashirama looked at Sarutobi, and then at Orochimaru.

He felt that the latter was indeed a little gloomy, far less than the sunny and cheerful Minato, and more in line with his preferences.

But as Tobirama said.

In the absence of many good choices, choosing a decent choice is already good.

It's better than being like Sarutobi, who was indecisive until his death and hadn't designated a successor.

Besides, Hashirama also understood.

If Orochimaru is not chosen as Hokage, today's farce will not end well.

Orochimaru may go against the village in the future.

Unless he is killed?

But Hashirama will definitely not kill the younger generation of Konoha ninja.

Even Hashirama could keenly feel during the mediation just now:

Although Orochimaru can't beat him, he doesn't seem to be afraid of being killed by him?

Is there any trick he hasn't used yet?

Or is there any confidence that he can definitely survive?

Either way, Hashirama realized that this younger generation ninja named Orochimaru is extraordinary!

…

"In that case, who else has any objection?"

"No one has any objection, right?"

"Orochimaru, from today on, you are the fifth generation Hokage!"

Tobirama glanced around and finally made the decision.

Until this moment, Orochimaru was still a little bit unbelievable.

He clearly came to attack Konoha and to avenge Sarutobi... How come he has become the new Hokage now?

Is this world crazy?

Or am I crazy?

"Second-generation sama, are you serious?"

Tobirama glanced at Orochimaru and asked back:

"Orochimaru, do you think I'm joking?"

"Or do you lack confidence? Will Konoha be worse than the monkeys under your governance?"

"No, no, no, that kind of thing is impossible!"

Orochimaru licked his lips fiercely, and was extremely excited.

When he thought that he could lead Konoha legitimately, personally roll up this wind that swept the ninja world, and surpass Sarutobi, Jiraiya and others...

Orochimaru was so excited that he trembled all over and almost couldn't help twisting his waist!

This is much more exciting than "Konoha Collapse Plan"!

"Sir, do you have any other suggestions?"

Tobirama turned to look at Xia You, and never forgot to ask for Xia You's opinion.

Without the help of this Yudao Immortal, they would not be able to come here at all, let alone change Sarutobi's death and Konoha's future.

"Nothing, just do as you say."

Xia You nodded slightly and agreed with Tobirama's proposal.

And this was originally Xia You's plan.

If anyone else succeeded to the throne, it would be difficult to change Konoha's decline in a short period of time.

But if it was Orochimaru who succeeded to the throne.

He who mastered the core technology of the ninja world may not be unable to lead Konoha to rise rapidly!

This is what Xia You said before, Konoha's only chance to quickly change its fate...

Look at this.

Under Tobirama's decisive decision, Konoha still seized this opportunity by chance.

In fact, even if Tobirama didn't mention it, he would try to push Orochimaru.

And this is why he was willing to save Sarutobi Hiruzen just now.

First, it was to test whether [World Teleportation] could bypass the contract with the God of Death;

Second, it was also to let Sarutobi live temporarily so that the position and power of Hokage could be transferred to Orochimaru more safely.

This legitimate succession is much better than Orochimaru killing his master and usurping the throne.

Although all the clans in Konoha more or less dislike Sarutobi, it is still difficult for them to support a fifth Hokage who usurped the throne by killing his master.

Just Danzo here, whether it is out of selfishness or to avenge Sarutobi.

He would openly and covertly target Orochimaru.

And as long as Sarutobi is still alive, even if he abdicates, Danzo will still not be able to make much waves...

In short.

At this moment, Sarutobi is more valuable alive than dead.

After half a year or a year, Orochimaru will firmly sit on the position of Hokage, and then it will not matter whether Sarutobi is dead or not.

…

"Who is this person?"

Orochimaru suppressed his excitement and turned his eyes to Xia You.

Although he had noticed this unique existence a long time ago. But now he is more aware of the respect that Lord Tobirama has for him.

What other figures in the ninja world can make the first and second generations of adults respect him so much?

"Wait... those eyes, like Pein, are they the legendary [Reincarnation Eye]?"

"Orochimaru, have you seen Pein and Nagato?" Tobirama asked quickly.

"After I left the village, I joined Akatsuki for a while and met Pein. Hmm? Do you mean that Pein is related to Nagato? One of Jiraiya's disciples?"

"Yes, Nagato is the leader of Akatsuki, and Pein and the Six Paths are just his puppets."

"That's right!"

Orochimaru couldn't help but smack his lips. The other party was really good at hiding, even he was fooled.

I always thought that Pein was the leader of Akatsuki.

"I will explain the information about Mr. and Nagato later."

"We don't have much time to stay, so take this opportunity."

"It's time to untie the barrier and end this farce."

"Monkey, you know what to say later, right?"

Sarutobi nodded embarrassedly.

After this battle, he hovered at the gate of hell once, and was scolded by Mr. Tobirama again; he has become indifferent to many things and his enthusiasm for power has also faded a lot.

I am really old!

Why not abdicate now.

Besides, deep down, he still likes Orochimaru as his disciple.

Whatever.

Letting him inherit the position of Hokage might be a good choice...
