I have a bunch of relatives who want to be Hokage

Looking out the window of the Raikage's office, we can see clouds of clouds gliding through the mountains. When the clouds are thicker, we can see a "white sea" as far as the eye can see.

The fourth generation Raikage was sitting in his office, looking at the files on the desktop.

Ten minutes have passed since this document was sent in.

The office was quiet, except for the Raikage himself, there was no one else.

The shadow guard and secretarial staff left the office.

But they just left this office. These people are now standing outside the Raikage's office, waiting for the young Raikage-sama to vent their anger and sadness inside.

However, ten minutes passed and there was no sound at all.

"That's almost it. Let's go in."

The captain of the Shadow Guard said.

Everyone looked at him, but no one moved.

The captain had no choice but to go up and knock on the door himself.

"Come in!" came the angry voice of the Fourth Raikage.

It sounds like nothing is wrong.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The captain of the Shadow Guard opened the office door and everyone filed in.

The burly Raikage sat there with nothing unusual on his face.

"Lord Raikage." The captain of the Shadow Guards said bravely, "Please give me the next step of instructions."

"Next step?" The Fourth Raikage looked at his henchman, "Can you give birth to the Eight-Tails now? Why don't you just give birth to the Nine-Tails?"

The captain of the Shadow Guard immediately fell silent.

"Of course there are instructions." The Fourth Raikage picked up the report materials that had been on the table for ten minutes. "Now that Kirabi is dead, surveillance of the ninja world will begin. Once the Eight-Tails is discovered, we will Capture it immediately, and besides..."

He looked at his guard leader.

"This Uchiha Shingen is the Uchiha who captured Yukito, right? Is he really related to the reincarnation of the earth?"

"Yes, there are many people in Konoha Hidden Village paying attention to this matter now, but most of them are old people from the past, and... they actually don't care about the reincarnation of the dirty land, they care more about the person's body."

"The remains..." The Fourth Raikage grinned, "Speaking of this, I remember Orochimaru also asked."

"yes."

"The monster has ascended to heaven. It's useless to keep that little thing anymore. Just give it to him."

"Lord Raikage!" The captain of the Shadow Guard put forward his objection tactfully, "Orochimaru is a very dangerous person. He may have some ulterior motives in provoking us to go to war with Konoha this time..."

"Zuo Liang." The Fourth Raikage's voice was low, "I don't remember you being such a weak person."

The expression of the captain of the Shadow Guard named Zuo Liang changed.

Words like "weak" are very harsh words in Cloud Hidden Village, which shows that the Fourth Raikage is dissatisfied with his wording like this.

"Sorry, Raikage-sama, I understand."

"No, your mistake is not what you think." The Fourth Raikage stood up and walked to Zuo Liang, "Are you afraid?"

"..." Zuo Liang was silent for a while, "I will never be afraid."

"Very good, Kumogakure's men don't make excuses for themselves." The Fourth Raikage patted his confidant on the shoulder, "There is nothing to regret. It doesn't matter if we lose. Although we have lost the tailed beast, the foundation of the village is still there. , give the thing to Orochimaru, he will definitely take revenge on Konoha in the future, I’m sure of it!”

"What about this time?"

"There is nothing we can do if we lose. Our current enemies are Iwagakure and Sunagakure. Konoha is not an enemy, but a friend."

"I understand, I will be patient."

"Well, tell me to go down and call me the ANBU chief."

Zuo Liang turned and left.

After a while, he returned here with a man.

"Lord Raikage."

"Saru, how are the Konoha ANBU now?" the Fourth Raikage asked.

"It's nothing to worry about, Raikage-sama."

"Oh?" The Fourth Raikage felt that this was really rare good news in these days, "Be specific."

"After the death of Konoha's 'Ninja Darkness', the quality of their Anbu dropped a lot."

"How long will it take for them to recover?"

"It will be difficult in the short term. There is no problem with their ANBU ninja ability, but the new commander does not have the ability to 'bear the darkness'."

"So, how is our ability to penetrate Konoha now?"

"I'm sorry, Raikage-sama, it's much worse than before..."

"Huh?" The Fourth Raikage didn't turn around at all.

Didn’t you just say that the player on the opposite side has been replaced by a noob?

"Konoha's security force is not what it used to be, Raikage-sama, our people will be discovered from a long distance."

"I see, the 'Byakugan' is indeed very strong..." The Fourth Raikage frowned.

He wanted to get the blood of Byakugan for more than a day or two.

Kumogakure Village is one of the few today...no, the only village that doesn't have any concerns about the Blood Successor Ninja Clan.

The blood successor ninja clan of Yunyin Village lived a very prosperous life.

The largest one is the blood successor of "Lan Dun".

Ever since the first Raikage, Kumogakure Village has been searching for blood successors.

As the "peninsula area" of the mainland, most of the population of the Kingdom of Thunder is concentrated in the south. Most of the land is a bitter cold land. In terms of manpower and material resources, the initial conditions are not very good.

The development to the current level of Shangwufu and Minfeng is completely dependent on the long-term persistence of "go to the mainland to get it if you don't have it".

The same goes for Cloud Hidden Village.

The big ones they did were ninjutsu and blood succession.

I am very greedy for the Byakugan, but not for the Sharingan.

Cloud Hidden Village has a special liking for taijutsu and various "light" escape techniques, such as lightning, laser, fire, light speed, etc. In the plan of the Fourth Raikage, now in Cloud Hidden Village, taijutsu, escape techniques Jutsu, genjutsu, and even perfect jinchūriki techniques no longer have any flaws.

All he needs is a blank stare.

The Sharingan is indeed very powerful, but unfortunately, it is completely incompatible with the ninjutsu system of Kumogakure Village...

The Fourth Raikage had many thoughts running through his mind, but in the end they all pointed in one direction.

I want to roll my eyes! Just do it!

"Is the Leaf Village continuing to urge us to sign a contract?"

"I was still asking last month, but not this month."

"Is there still any movement in Iwagakure?"

"Yes, they are active, but they still can't tell who the target is. We can show our strength to show that the village still has enough strength."

"No!" The Fourth Raikage waved his hand, interrupting the ANBU minister's words, "You have to show weakness!"

He knew his father-killing enemy very well.

That old immortal has a problem with Konoha... no, with the Uchiha clan!

"In addition, secretly promote the reputation of the Uchiha clan, White Ghost and Shunshen, and focus on promoting these two people!"

"Lord Raikage, I don't understand."

"Just do as you are told!" The Fourth Raikage gave the order very forcefully, and pointed at a little girl in the secretarial team, "You, take note of what I said."

"Yes, Raikage-sama." The little girl is very capable. She belongs to the same race as the Raikage family in terms of skin color. She is also brown and has short silver hair.

"Make an appointment with Kazekage for me to discuss the conclusion of a friendship treaty between Kumogakure and Sunagakure."

Chapter 9 The campaign begins

The movements in Yunyin Village slightly attracted some people's attention.

But not Konoha.

The ANBU in Konoha have been working conscientiously in intelligence work, especially the group of people who originally belonged to the "roots". Basically, they have all been promoted after returning to the ANBU - they can't do it without promotion, they are the only ones who can do this.

The most miserable thing is that the Anbu chief, whose comfortable days are gone forever, even has the idea of ​​asking the third generation to come out and return to his old career after leaving Shimura Danzo in the dirt.

But this thought can only be thought about.

So the ANBU minister could only continue to develop his own imagination to prevent himself from being played by Kumogakure's ANBU minister again.

He still has plenty of time to hone his business skills, because no one in Konoha Hidden Village will criticize him now.

No one has time for this.

The campaign to become the Hokage's assistant has begun, and this is what the Konoha ninjas are most concerned about now.

The villagers are also very concerned. This kind of large-scale melon-eating activity may only happen once in a lifetime, if not once at least.

Several nominated candidates have officially appeared and officially entered the eyes of the people of Konoha.

There are four nominees, the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the fourth-generation Hokage Namikaze Minato, advisor elder Koharu Kadeni and Mito Monobu.

The people they nominated are also very interesting. Some of them were expected, and some were really unexpected.

No one is surprised that the Sandaime nominated Shikaku Nara, the current jounin squad leader.

The fourth generation nominated the Minister of Police Uchiha Fugaku. Everyone was mentally prepared for this but did not take it seriously.

After all, the Uchiha clan has even been nominated for Hokage, but every time it was just a nomination.

The person nominated by Koharu is a bit interesting. He is the nominal head of the Shimura clan, Shimura Hiren.

The reason why I say it is in name is because the Shimura clan has basically disintegrated from the ninja clan status and has become a family ninja, which is part of the civilian ninja.

Finally, there was Mito Kaden, who nominated Sazo Sarutobi, the leader of the Sarutobi clan.

Sarutobi Saizou is the strongest person in the Sarutobi clan except Sarutobi Hiruzen. He has strong physical skills and is good at fire escape, thunder escape and earth escape. He is also very good in medical ninjutsu. He has been a member of the ninja class since the third generation. member.

These four people are candidates for the Hokage's assistance.

Hiren Shimura, an old jounin, has a good attitude, neither arrogant nor impetuous, and smiles happily.

Sarutobi Saizo showed full of confidence.

Nara Shikaku's popularity is not low, and the jounin of the three clans of Ino, Deer and Butterfly have never considered investing in others.

In Akimichi's words, if someone beats Sarutobi, they will be the first to go, but when it comes to voting, I'm sorry, they have to give it to their gay friends.

Yamanaka said, when pigs, deers, and butterflies crow in vain? Did you know that the Jonin of the three clans had a dinner together last night?

But just like Sazo Sarutobi didn't expect that the Ino, Shika and Butterfly clan would vote for him from the beginning, Nara Shikaku didn't expect that the Jonin of the Sarutobi clan would give him special favor as the squad leader.

It will take a long time to win the other party's votes.

As for Uchiha Fugaku, he carefully observed his opponents. In the Jonin class, he had no foundation and only had Uchiha Shingen. In this regard, he was not even as good as Shimura Hire.

Shimura Danzo has a bad reputation, but the Shimura clan does not have a good reputation.

"The Darkness of Shinobi" had always drawn a clear boundary with his family during his lifetime. From the beginning, there was no second person named Shimura among his "roots", so his sins were not tainted by the Shimura family at all.

But this is just the beginning. Next, the four candidates need to give speeches in the village and express their governing concepts to the villagers. They will have plenty of time to play the game.

This is also a part of the campaign. All candidates can give full play to their abilities to canvass votes. This is also an ability that the Hokage Assistant must possess.

Assisting the Hokage to exercise power is not just chatting in the office. If he doesn't have the ability to deal with villagers and many ninjas, what kind of assistant is he?

The villagers don't vote, but the candidates' performance when facing the villagers will become the basis for civilian ninjas to vote.

The time is one month.

A month later, the first round of voting will take place.

In order to fully test whether the Hokage assistant has the ability to make a comeback in adversity or to deal with the situation calmly, after the first round of voting, there will be another round of voting one month apart.

And then that's the end result.
