Naruto's Strongest Force

Konoha Village

Today, most of the Jounin of Konoha have returned to the village.

Because today is the day when the Fifth Hokage will be decided.

The Ninja School was supposed to graduate at this time, but the re-election as Hokage was postponed.

There is a huge plaza in front of the Hokage Building.

Today the square is already crowded.

A podium was set up in the square, with an electronic screen behind it, and on both sides were all the current high-level officials of Konoha, as well as the heads of major families and others.

The third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Mito Monobu, and Koharu, who is transferred to the dormitory, are also here.

In the front venue are many jonins from Konoha, and basically all the jonins of the younger generation are here.

The third Hokage's son, Sarutobi Asuma, and his girlfriend Yuhi Kurenai were also standing among them.

Akimichi Tifeng rarely appeared at the venue, but due to injuries when he was young and his age, he was no longer in good health.

Several juniors from the Akimichi family carried huge armchairs and sat in the last row.

Earlier, Uchiha Natsuki led the Uchiha group and those who rushed back from Otogakure Village.

Entered the square first.

In the team, Yao Ye kept looking around and muttering, not knowing what he was talking about.

Tsunade brought Shizune and a bunch of medical ninjas gathered from Konoha's medical system into the square.

Although there are fewer people, medical ninjas are much more valuable than ordinary ninjas, and their momentum is not inferior to Uchiha Natsuki.

Sasuke followed Natsuki, but Naruto stood behind Tsunade.

In fact, Naruto wanted to side with Natsuki, but Natsuki still let him stand with Tsunade in order not to irritate the Third Hokage's sensitive nerves.

After Natsuki and Tsunade both arrived, Orochimaru finally arrived belatedly.

Behind Orochimaru are Konoe No. 1, Kaoru, Jugo, Nobu, Saai, and Kakashi.

Anko, who was a disciple of Orochimaru, was standing in the audience.

Moreover, Hongdou was wearing a bamboo hat to cover her face.

It was obvious that Hongdou was worried about others recognizing her.

Since the last incident, she has not come to see Orochimaru.

Ever since he and Orochimaru separated when they were young, her world has always been white.

Suddenly Orochimaru came back and told her.

The white world is false. The environment she has been living in is the result of her deliberately not being exposed to darkness.

Orochimaru tore it all apart.

While Hongdou's world view collapsed, he was also trying to let himself get in touch with the world.

At this time, the new announcement in the village directly pushed Hongdou.

Orochimaru's cloning breakthrough can now be used to treat people with physical disabilities.

It can make more people who can only wait for death regain the glory of life.

How great this technology is, you can get an idea just by thinking about it.

But what did this cloning technology look like initially, and how did it develop later.

Anko regained her memory clearly.

She suddenly understood that she had been narrow-minded all along.

The world is neither black nor white, but a delicate gray.

However, she did not return to Orochimaru.

The reason...

she! long! fat! Got it! And he's ridiculously fat.

Not only has my face grown bigger, but I also have a swimming ring on my belly.

If she was a red bean before, then she is a sweet potato now!

She went absolutely crazy.

Still staying at home, drinking too much, overeating, and constantly eating sweets.

I have never been fat before, and now I am suddenly like this.

For the first time, she was worried about her appearance and body shape, which directly defeated Hongdou.

Anko couldn't accept herself like this, appearing next to her teacher.

Especially at this time, news came that his teacher had been nominated to run for the Fifth Hokage.

Although Hongdou tried her best to lose weight, gaining weight was easy, but losing weight was far from easy. In a month, she didn't lose much weight.

When I saw myself in the mirror, who was as fat as two people, I thought of the teacher who was elegant and had the same appearance.

Hongdou, who had always been outgoing, fun-loving and impulsive, suddenly felt inferior in his heart.

This emotion affected her, causing her to finally appear in the audience instead of behind Orochimaru.

…

Orochimaru's team was small in number, a bit shabby compared to Natsuki Tsunade.

But when Orochimaru entered the venue.

Suddenly there was a sound of "bang bang bang..." outside the crowd.

Under the colorful flowers flying all over the sky, everyone realized that it was a salute.

The atmosphere in the venue instantly became boiling, and many civilians watching the excitement from the outside were making endless noises.

Natsuki looked at Sandai's little move with some amusement.

Really, in order to build momentum for Orochimaru, there is no one else.

It has been a long time since Orochimaru appeared in public view.

Those who asked to see him were blocked by the Third Hokage.

Let him do experiments with peace of mind.

This is also the first time Orochimaru has participated in an event with so many people since his defection.

Orochimaru looked around and saw many familiar figures in the venue.

Akimichi Kaifeng on the stage is about to die.

Life is so fragile.

He moved his eyes, searching for the marks of the past.

Suddenly his eyes paused for a moment on a man wearing a bamboo hat above the auditorium, and then moved away.

Little Hongdou, do you think I won’t be able to recognize you like this?

Orochimaru saw the venue was crowded and the atmosphere was lively.

His thoughts went back to the day when he and Minato competed for the Fourth Hokage.

The brutal Third Ninja War had just ended.

Everyone wants to get out of the haze of war quickly, and all the villagers are extremely enthusiastic.

The war had just ended at that time, and both Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru were frontline commanders.

In terms of strength and reputation, Orochimaru is higher than the rising star Minato.

Minato only had a huge reputation among civilians.

Huge popularity among civilians is of little use, because civilians do not have the right to vote.

However, when Orochimaru thought he had a chance to win, reality gave him a hard blow.

The results of the vote count showed that Minato had far more votes than expected.

After it was over, Orochimaru discovered that there were many votes from the Sarutobi clan in the ticket.

Orochimaru knew that the Third Hokage was behind all of this.

But today, it's different.

Orochimaru turned his head slightly and ignored Minato behind him.

Then a smile appeared on his face.

Everything is under control.

The third generation was in the middle of the stage, looking at Natsuki Uchiha, and then scanning Tsunade's team.

His eyes swept over Naruto behind Tsunade.

Although Tsunade did not withdraw from the Hokage campaign, it was a bit unexpected.

But as long as Naruto is close to Tsunade, everything is under his control.

Today's Uchiha Natsuki is destined to return without success.

As for Kakashi standing behind Orochimaru, this is a result that the Third Hokage can accept.

When everyone arrived, the Third Hokage walked up to the stage.
