Naruto: If I let you be Naruto, you will become yellow-haired?

Chapter 33: Sarutobi Hiruzen: I am old and weak, and I want to abdicate to Tsunade! (Please read and vote!)

Utane Koharu exchanged a subtle glance with Mitomon En.

Then Mitomon En hurriedly tried to smooth things over, and gave sincere and kind advice in his magnetic voice.

"Huruzen, I'm going to speak fairly, so don't blame me if it doesn't sound right.

This time I stand with Xiaochun's point of view. You are still too kind to Jinchūriki! "

"Jinchuuriki is a strategic asset to Konoha, especially at this critical moment when the village is facing the evil intentions of the Uchiha clan.

It must be handed over to a reliable person who is loyal to the village for safekeeping.
And you, Hiruzen, are so preoccupied with the village's affairs that you have no time to care for the Jinchūriki."

After a pause, Men Yan continued.

"Why don't you just hand the Jinchūriki over to me and Xiaochun this time? We will help you keep the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki for the time being.
This way, Hiruzen, the immense pressure you carry on the village can be relieved a little..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a puff of white smoke and sighed deeply in his heart.

Although these two old friends of his are much better than Danzo, the guy who always causes him trouble.

But you have too many tricks! Too much selfishness! You can't serve the village wholeheartedly!
They are always trying to gain benefits for themselves and the interests and rights of their families!

It's just that they can't be as selfless as I am and devote themselves wholeheartedly to the village!

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and remained silent, thinking about how to shirk the joint pressure from the two people this time.

The impatient Utane Koharu couldn't stand it any longer, so she took two steps forward, put her hands on the desk, and spoke again.

"Hiruzen, you can't be so indecisive anymore..."

"Bang!"

The door to the Hokage's office was roughly thrown open.

A figure with a gloomy aura walked in quickly.

It was none other than Danzo Shimura, the leader of the Root, whose half body was wrapped in white bandages and whose cold demeanor made it look like he was not someone to be trifled with.

The three people in the room frowned at the same time when they saw Shimura Danzo suddenly barging in and interrupting them.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was originally frowning and thinking hard, breathed a sigh of relief.

There are only four high-ranking officials in Konoha who hold power.

This time, the two Hokage advisors, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En, cited the frequent violent conflicts between the Jinchūriki and the village as an excuse.
Suddenly they joined forces to put pressure on him.

Caught off guard, he couldn't find a good excuse to deal with the two of them.

But when Danzo comes, someone will take the blame!

As he expected, Utane Koharu's good fortune was interrupted by Danzo.

He immediately turned his gun towards Danzo and blamed him in a bad tone.

"Danzo, don't you see that En and I are discussing village secrets with Hiruzen?!"

"If the enemy spies lurking outside eavesdrop and learn the village's top-secret information, who will be held responsible?"

Shimura Danzo's gloomy square face was irrationally scolded by Utane Koharu without any logic.
He was so angry that the corners of his mouth, which had originally looked paralyzed, twitched.

A spy from the enemy village?! Do you want to listen to what you're saying?
This is the heart of Konoha—the Hokage Building! Don't be fooled by its apparent emptiness, but inside and out, the various ninjas and ANBU working both openly and covertly could easily overthrow a small nation in the ninja world!
As for Uzumaki Naruto, who has not yet graduated from the Chunin School in the original work, under the instigation of the last Chunin Mizuki,
He was actually able to sneak into the heavily guarded Hokage Building alone and successfully steal the scrolls of forbidden techniques and the book of seals recorded by the Second Hokage and kept personally by successive Hokage!
In the end, he was hunted down by Iruka, a semi-retired Chunin teacher from the Ninja School...

This is a matter of opinion...

Danzo ignored Utane Koharu's provocation.

Anyway, he knew in his heart that every time Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two Hokage advisors quarreled among themselves,
Once I show up, they all turn their targets around and join forces to suppress me.

This made him extremely angry and frustrated!

He was the Dark Lord of the Ninja World, when had he ever suffered such injustice outside the village?!
If one day he becomes the Hokage, he will definitely...!
"Huruzen, when did Tsunade return to the village? What did she want to do by returning to the village!?"

Danzo spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen in a hurried tone mixed with anxiety.

It's no wonder he's so restless and impatient; that's Tsunade! The granddaughter of the First Daemon.

The best candidate to succeed Hokage, widely expected by the village!
Even if Tsunade had shown the slightest willingness when running for the Fourth Hokage.

I’m afraid that even the mission master “Yellow Flash” Minato Namikaze can’t get the position!

There was a sinister glint in Danzo's eyes. He had worked so hard to outlast the old man, but now he was going to outlast that immortal Hiruzen!
If Tsunade comes back, it means she wants to take over Sarutobi Hiruzen's position as Hokage!
Then wouldn't I, who had the best chance of succeeding Sarutobi Hiruzen as the Fifth Hokage after his abdication, have to stand aside again?!
Danzo Shimura would definitely not accept this!
For so many years, he'd shed blood for Konoha! He'd done so much for Konoha! He wanted to be Hokage! He wanted to be Hokage!

When the other two Hokage advisors heard the news that Danzo had mentioned Tsunade's return to the village, their expressions changed slightly. They looked at each other in surprise.

Mito Men Yan could no longer pretend to be a good guy. He stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen in surprise and asked anxiously.

"Hiruzen, what's going on with Tsunade? Why did she come back to the village? Is she going to pick up…"

Could it be that Hiruzen is getting old and wants to give up the power of Hokage?
This isn't like Hiruzen's character!?

His face, which was as wrinkled as tree bark, had a complicated expression, and bad guesses emerged in his mind.

He and Utane Koharu have different ideas from Danzo in terms of wanting to focus on improvement.

They are not the changing Hokage, but the permanent high-level Hokage advisors of Konoha!
Even after the Fourth Ninja World War in the original work, Naruto became the seventh generation!
They still have great power and influence in Konoha's upper echelons!

As advisors to the Hokage, they are content to guard their own piece of land.

It’s just that Hiruzen’s female disciple Tsunade has always had a bad temper and can’t tolerate any sand in her eyes!
They don't know the big picture when doing things, don't know how to put the overall situation first, and often do whatever they want! They often don't give face to these respected elders!
Unlike them, I am not experienced and can consider every aspect of the village carefully!

Besides, Tsunade doesn't have the Sarutobi family like Hiruzen does.

She is completely different, without any weaknesses, and when she acts tough, she is hard to handle... ahem... hard to get along with!
If she comes back to take over as Hokage, I'm afraid that the lives of the two advisors, Koharu and I, will not be as comfortable as they are now!

If he really had to choose another fifth generation, he would prefer to nominate someone from now on!

Instead of Tsunade, who has a noble status, a superior position and a bad temper!

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat firmly in the Hokage's chair, deliberately keeping silent, observing the rapidly changing gloomy and anxious faces of his three old buddies who had always harbored ulterior motives.

I couldn't help feeling proud and remained silent for a long time.

His wrinkled old face was melancholy and he sighed, full of the vicissitudes and helplessness of old age.

"Ah! I'm old now, and my time as Hokage has come to an end. Time is still for the young.
That’s why I asked Tsunade to come back specially to prepare to take over as the fifth generation!”

The rest of the people all changed color!
