If you want to choose someone, draw a circle under that person's name. If you don't want to choose anyone and want to abstain, draw a circle between the two names to represent abstention.
Obito, Kakashi and the others circled Mu Yue's name as soon as they got their ballots.
The Uchiha senior ninjas, led by Uchiha Fugaku, quickly circled Mu Yue's name.
The one chosen was Mu Yue, and it was also the opportunity chosen for the Uchiha people to enter the core power.
"Lord Orochimaru, I'm sorry. It's not that you're not good, it's that Mr. Mu Yue is too good."
Some of the senior ninjas who had served as Orochimaru's subordinates during the Third Ninja World War but had participated in Mu Yue's special training silently drew a circle around Mu Yue.
"Assist Mu Yue? My son seems to be very supportive of him, why not choose him?"
Some of the senior ninjas were hesitant and thought of how their own children often praised Mu Yue to them, and finally drew a circle under Mu Yue's name.
Many of them had never communicated with Mu Yue, but they had more or less heard some stories about Mu Yue.
After the votes were counted, Mito Kado En and Utatane Koharu gave the data to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
A look of surprise flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you checked repeatedly that there are no problems?"
"We've checked it five times in total, and there's definitely no problem." Mitomon Yan replied.
Counting the votes is a very important job. It not only requires repeated confirmation by multiple ninjas, but also requires supervision by two senior executives, Mitomon En and Utane Koharu, to prevent problems.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Orochimaru with some reluctance, but he turned to face the jonin and said:
"Orochimaru received a total of twenty-eight votes."
All the jonin on the field showed expressions of disbelief.
Twenty-eight votes represent twenty-eight jonin. It sounds like a lot, but the number of jonin at this meeting exceeded one hundred and sixty.
In other words, the number of people who support Orochimaru is less than 20% of the total population.
This is Orochimaru, one of the three famous ninjas who became famous in the ninja world as early as the Second Shinobi World War. The miserable number of votes he received was beyond the expectations of most of the senior ninjas.
Many people think that Mu Yue has an advantage but not too big because this is a Jonin meeting.
Compared to the newly rising Mu Yue, most of the senior ninjas are still more familiar with Orochimaru.
"Could it be that too many people abstained from voting?" Someone thought of a possibility.
If the total number of votes is reduced because too many people abstained, then it is reasonable to be more pessimistic about the data.
"Hanyu Muyue received a total of 139 votes." Sarutobi Hiruzen said after a slight pause.
The conference room fell into an eerie silence for a moment.
The senior ninjas who voted for Orochimaru looked around with surprised expressions, as if asking why they all voted for Mu Yue.
The senior ninjas who surrendered to Mu Yue couldn't help but look around. It turned out that there were so many friendly forces. It was an overwhelming victory.
This vote difference is enough for Mu Yue to secure the position of Hokage in advance.
Although there are still mid-level and low-level ninjas and the public who have not voted, the combined weight of those two links is only 60%.
Unless Orochimaru has extremely high popularity among the people and ordinary ninjas, it will be difficult for him to turn the tables.
Everyone here is a Konoha ninja. How could they not know what Orochimaru's situation is in Konoha? He has many supporters, but they are definitely not as many as Mu Yue.
Mu Yue played a very important role in the three wars. The period immediately after the war was Mu Yue's absolute strong period.
Uchiha Fugaku raised the corner of his mouth, and a rare excited smile appeared on his face.
Naruto, finally there will be a Hokage who might be biased towards them, the Uchiha!
With the two Uchiha stars, Shisui and Obito, and Mu Yue, a powerful Hokage who will not target the Uchiha, there is no need for Uchiha to worry about not being able to restore its glory.
"Teacher Mu Yue is the Hokage!" Obito laughed and shouted in his heart.
He had studied the rules of the Hokage election. Although it was still early for the final result, Mu Yue's vote count was very stable and there was almost no possibility of a upset.
"History has been further changed." Obito silently apologized to Minato Namikaze in his heart.
The impact of their actions became increasingly greater, and Minato Namikaze, who was supposed to become the Fourth Hokage, was not even nominated.
Obito thought that this was probably because Mu Yue survived, which led to many battles that were resolved by Minato Namikaze in the original history being resolved by Mu Yue instead.
After all, Mu Yue is stronger than Minato Namikaze.
However, if Obito were given a hundred more chances, he would still find a way to change history.
Anyone can be Hokage, he just wants everyone to live well.
This time, Naruto shouldn't become an orphan again.
PS: I have been busy and tired recently, and accidentally fell asleep again.
Fortunately, I'm finally done with my work. I should be able to update before one or two o'clock in the morning tonight, right?
Chapter 678 Influence
The results of the Jonin vote surprised the ninjas present.
But no matter what they think, the voting results cannot be changed.
In the voting for the jonin, Mu Yue gained an absolute lead.
After the meeting, Mu Yue’s friends came forward to congratulate her.
"Mu Yue, you are really going to be rich now. The position of Hokage is within your reach." Kushina patted Mu Yue's shoulder and laughed excitedly.
In fact, a long time ago, when she was in ninja school, Kushina also aspired to become Hokage and become the first female Hokage of Konoha.
However, there is no special reason why Kushina wants to become Hokage. She just regards this as a lofty ambition. She is a person who is unwilling to be ordinary.
"It's still uncertain until the exact results come out." Mu Yue shook her head.
He didn't think being the Hokage was something to be happy about, and popping champagne at halftime was unacceptable.
"We certainly can't be careless about this, but I still want to congratulate you on receiving so much support in the Jounin voting." Namikaze Minato smiled gently.
Seeing his good friend suppress seniors like the Sannin in the Fourth Hokage election, Namikaze Minato felt a little emotional.
When Mu Yue was still a Chunin, he was already a well-known Jonin, and now that Mu Yue is about to become Hokage, he is still just the squad leader of the Jonin class.
However, Minato Namikaze was neither jealous nor envious of Mu Yue, but only admired her.
Because he was familiar with Mu Yue, he knew that all this came from Mu Yue's own abilities and contributions to Konoha, not from Mu Yue's connections with the top leaders.
If Minato Namikaze were put in Mu Yue's life, he would know that he could not achieve the same level as Mu Yue.
"I cast my precious vote for you. It's not too much to celebrate with a big meal since we have such a big advantage," Tsunade said bluntly.
Mu Yue nodded, it’s nice to have a big dinner together occasionally.
Jiraiya, who was trying to comfort Orochimaru with a joke, was instantly shocked when he heard this.
It doesn't matter if I go back to Konoha, but it would be a shame if I rush back and still can't get Mu Yue's meal.
"Ahem, Orochimaru, we seniors must be magnanimous. Although you and Mu Yue are currently competing for the position of Hokage, it should not affect your private relationship." Jiraiya said seriously.
He wanted to go and have a free meal, but Jiraiya felt that it would not be a good idea to leave Orochimaru behind at this time, so he had to take Orochimaru with him.
"Jiraiya, when did you have the illusion that you were capable of educating me?" Orochimaru said lightly, walked directly towards Mu Yue, and calmly asked for a free meal.
The fact that his votes were overwhelmingly defeated by his juniors did make Orochimaru feel a little uncomfortable, as he also had his own pride.
But that’s all, because that junior is Mu Yue.
When Orochimaru heard that he was running for Hokage against Mu Yue, he knew that he had definitely been chosen to be a runner-up this time.
How could he beat Mu Yue? Apart from his mission record, he had almost no advantage over Mu Yue.
In terms of strength, Mu Yue was able to severely injure the Fourth Kazekage with one punch, and he also developed the Wood Release unique to the God of Ninja; in terms of military achievements, Mu Yue was the hero of Konoha who ended the Third Shinobi World War.
Orochimaru, knowing the gap between the two, did not feel too much loss.
And they are partners. Strictly speaking, Mu Yue becoming Hokage is a good thing for Orochimaru, although it is not better for him to become Hokage himself.
"And me."
Jiraiya didn't expect that the cold Orochimaru would also like to eat for free, so he was stunned for a moment.
When I came to my senses, I found that a few people had walked and talked for some distance, so I hurried to catch up with them.
In addition to friends, Mu Yue also invited students such as Asuma and Obito to have dinner together.
"I never get tired of Mu Yue teacher's cooking no matter how many times I eat it. It would be great if the Sharingan could copy it, so I could eat it every day without bothering Mu Yue teacher." On the way back to the Uchiha clan's territory, Obito lamented that the Sharingan was not powerful enough.
He tried to use the Sharingan to copy Mu Yue's cooking skills one-to-one, but he didn't make food as delicious as Mu Yue's, it just tasted okay.
"The Sharingan isn't omnipotent. If you study hard with Teacher Mu Yue, you might be able to do better." Shisui answered casually.
"Forget it then. I'll learn cooking when my strength is no longer sufficient."
Obito didn't want to waste time on cooking, and eventually be surpassed by Kakashi in strength, and then be mocked and humiliated by Kakashi.
"But Mr. Mu Yue has such a big advantage that it's a waste of the brilliant plan I thought of with great effort." Obito quickly turned the topic back to the Hokage election.
"It doesn't seem like a waste. I can keep it in mind and use it when I run for Hokage."
"Then it's still a waste." Shisui gently reminded that rash operations could easily have the opposite effect.
"Don't you think my idea is good, Shisui?"
"A thousand years ago, this might have been a rare and brilliant idea that would have been applauded."
Obito:......
After arriving at the Uchiha clan's territory, the two separated and returned to their respective homes.
Not long after Shisui returned home, Uchiha Fugaku came to his door in person.
"Are we having dinner at Assistant Mu Yue's house today?" asked Uchiha Fugaku.
When he left, he saw Zhishui, Muyue and a group of people leaving.
"Yes." Shisui nodded.
"Assistant Mu Yue is likely to become Hokage this time. We must seize this opportunity. Once the village opinion leans towards Assistant Mu Yue, we must promote Assistant Mu Yue's idea." Uchiha Fugaku said quickly.
"When the time comes, call the elders together for a meeting and discuss, so as to reach a consensus before the clan meeting."
The Uchiha clan didn't want to enter Konoha's core decision-making level, but they just couldn't squeeze in.
Mu Yue has a very good reputation in the Uchiha clan. All Uchiha ninjas know that their two greatest geniuses are Mu Yue's disciples.
Now that there is hope in Mu Yue, Uchiha Fugaku doesn't believe that the elders will still oppose the reform of the police department.
Unless they don't want the Uchiha to become better, but if that's the case, Uchiha Fugaku will have to use his power as the clan leader.
"Yeah." Shisui nodded again.
Uchiha Fugaku's actions gave Shisui a new understanding of the power and status of the Hokage.
Although Uchiha Fugaku was on his side before, he was not so proactive. Now that Mu Yue has the opportunity to succeed the Hokage, Uchiha Fugaku has suddenly become much more active.
Shisui didn't hate Uchiha Fugaku for doing this, after all, Uchiha Fugaku was doing it for the Uchiha clan.
He thought that an Uchiha ninja like Uchiha Fugaku would rather betray the village than the clan.
PS:
I'm in a very bad state. I feel like if I write more, I'll ruin the plot I've thought of. Plus, it's getting late, so I'll just stop writing and post 2,000 words.
I have a day off today. I hope I can recover during the day. Then I will write more and make up for the missing 2,000 words.
Chapter 679 The Sixth Largest Ninja Force?
The Land of Rain, Six Paths City.
Unlike when they left, since Mu Yue did not inform the Ninja Sect of the specific return time, there were no Ninja Sect ninjas to greet them when they returned to Liudao City.
However, the news spread quickly after Mu Yue and his companions entered the city. When Mu Yue and his companions returned to the Ninja Sect's base, a group of Ninja Sect ninjas gathered together.
"Teacher Sosuke, welcome back!" the Ninjas of the Shinobi Clan shouted excitedly.
Although they all knew that their leader was very powerful, their opponent was the Third Hokage who stood at the top of the ninja world, so it was impossible not to worry.
So when they saw Sosuke coming back safely, the Shinobi clan ninjas were all happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Theoretically, it is not a good behavior to worship someone like this, but that person is Sosuke, the founder of the New Ninja Sect.
