Chapter 75: The Uchiha Uproar

Hiruzen and others understand that at this time, Uchiha is not suitable to become Hokage. That would break the balance between them!

From Itachi's mouth, the Konoha Corrupt Quartet understood that Funan had long known the strength of their four clans. At this time, Uchiha Funan became the Hokage, which meant that they were preparing to die together.

So Funan didn't want to be Hokage either.

But...

This isn't right either. Why do so many Jonin recommend him?

The entire conference room fell into an eerie silence. Everyone was a little confused.

"How is it possible?" Shikaku was also confused.

Akimichi Choza looked at him and couldn't help but whisper: "Shikaku, to be honest, if Uncle Torifu hadn't been my uncle, I would have recommended Funan as Hokage."

"Why?" Shikaku was confused. "You and Uchiha have such a good relationship?"

"It's not about having a good relationship." Choza hesitated and said: "It goes without saying that Danzo, except for the root members, no one wants him to become Hokage."

"Kakashi is a good Jonin, but he falls short in strength and prestige."

"That..."

"Uncle Torifu is too old. This is too fatal for a shinobi."

Choza's words made Shikaku wake up with horror. He understood that he was too complacent, so he made a fatal mistake!

His original plan was to let Torifu become the Hokage agent because he was too old. No great shinobi village would allow a person who is almost sixty years old to hold the position of Kage. That is irresponsible to the entire village.

"Sure enough, one cannot get carried away!" Shikaku looked distraught.

Putting aside Uchiha, Funan, who has both strength and brains, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate for the position of Hokage.

Among the four people today, from a fair perspective, Funan is the most suitable.

So, the Jonin made a choice. They knew this could result in serious problems. But didn't the Jonin have internal resentments? Why don't you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, give an explanation for the recent rumors?

Hiruzen looked at each Jonin. Some Jonin looked directly at him. Others lowered their heads and did not look at him.

The Third Hokage sighed in resignation.

"Funan, what do you think?" Hiruzen focused his attention on Funan. His gaze was calm, but he was trying to pressure him implicitly.

He wants Funan to take the initiative to retreat!

Funan didn't care at all.

"Hey, Hokage-sama, look how popular I am now..." Funan sighed helplessly and said: "Do you know why?"

Hiruzen frowned slightly.

"Actually, my strengths and weaknesses are very obvious." Funan said: "My strengths are my strong strength, smart mind, and strong background."

"What about the shortcomings?" A female Jonin looked at Funan funny and asked.

"Does this need to be said?"

"Of course, it's because I'm too handsome!" Funan puffed up his chest and said: "Who is more handsome than me in Konoha?!"

Hiruzen sighed. He knew that you wouldn't hear anything useful from this guy's mouth.

"Everyone!" Hiruzen looked at the many Jonin and said: "We have listened to your opinions. In a few days, we will inform you of our decision."

The Jonin looked at each other in surprise.

The expressions of many Jonin turned cold. The current Konoha disappoints them and makes them feel insecure. They don't want to be forced to commit suicide like Hatake Sakumo.

They also didn't want to be like Uchiha Funan, who was forced to live in seclusion in the clan at a young age.

And besides, the Uchiha had enormous family support, what about them?

When had Konoha become like this?

Furthermore, rumors had been heard that the Sarutobi clan was actually the most powerful clan in Konoha.

How could a second-class clan become the most powerful?

That's nonsense!

With this thought, many Jonin actually sat firmly in their positions, motionless.

Hiruzen's expression changed slightly.

Jiraiya sighed inwardly. 'Old man, you have been the Hokage for so long that you regard the entire Konoha as your private property.'

Jiraiya quickly thought of the recent rumors, and a gloom flashed across his face. He didn't want to think in this direction. Everyone knew that the recent rumors must be related to Uchiha.

But...

Naruto...

What that boy had suffered in Konoha, he had seen with his own eyes. The son of the Fourth Hokage, a hero, would he have to endure such suffering? Jiraiya's eyes turned cold. 'Sensei, you have become something I no longer recognize.'

Koharu and Homura looked at each other and both saw the fear in each other's eyes.

Konoha, after several recent secret battles, was already out of their control. Damn Uchiha, look at what you've done.

Jiraiya stood up, clapped his hands, looked at the Jonin, and said solemnly: "You go back first, there will be another Jonin meeting tomorrow, and the results will be announced tomorrow."

The Jonin looked at each other, stood up, and left.

This scene made Hiruzen's eyes flash, and he looked at Jiraiya with a strange expression.

Soon, only Hiruzen, Uchiha, Ino-Shika-Cho, and Jiraiya were left in the room.

Hiashi originally wanted to stay, but after these people looked at him, he lowered his head and ran away.

A helpless sigh sounded: "Monkey, how could this happen? Is this still the Konoha we remember?"

This sentence is exactly what Hiruzen has said countless times, and it can be said to be his heartfelt voice.

But!

'Uchiha Funan, is it your turn to say this? And also, why do you call me Monkey?' Hiruzen had a grim expression.

Jiraiya wanted to kick him.

Torifu looked at Shikaku and whispered: "How did you cooperate with him during the Third Shinobi War?"

"Bite your teeth and hold on!" Shikaku is quite used to it.

"That's enough!" Jiraiya yelled angrily and said: "How long will you continue to make trouble? Do you really want Konoha to be finished?"

Funan glanced at him and said: "Are you interested in being the Fifth Hokage?"

Jiraiya, who was originally furious, was suddenly splashed with cold water. He shrunk his neck and said with a sly expression: "I'm really not fit to be Hokage."

"Then get out of here!" Funan waved his hand with a look of disgust, looked at Hiruzen, and said: "Monkey, what should I do? Now everyone thinks that I am the best candidate for Hokage."

Hiruzen felt like it was hard to breathe.

Koharu looked at Funan coldly and said: "Uchiha Funan, 'Monkey' is what the First and Second Hokage used to call him. Even we, his friends, stopped calling him that after Hiruzen became Hokage. You should call him Hokage-sama."

Funan smiled and said: "The First Hokage called him that, so his grandson is dead."

"The Second Hokage called it that. So, the Senju clan was dismantled and integrated into Konoha. But, have they really integrated into Konoha? Now no one from the Senju clan can be found. Where do you think they went?"

"Why didn't Mito-sama let Hiruzen enter the Senju Clan's territory?"

Funan had a charming smile.

However, in the eyes of Hiruzen, he was full of malice.

All the words he said turned into sharp swords and stabbed Hiruzen, making him breathe harder and stare at Funan with murderous intent.

"Old man!" Jiraiya's deep voice sounded.

Hiruzen suppressed the rage and murderous intent in his heart. At this time, Hiruzen did not dare to start a war.

Of course, Uchiha didn't dare start a war either. Unless they wanted mutual destruction!

"Uchiha Funan, will you put forward your conditions?" Hiruzen said coldly. "You must understand that the Uchiha clan will never be able to produce a Hokage."

Funan smiled and said: "You should add, for Konoha!"

Danzo: "..."

Funan continued to smile and said: "Why can't Uchiha produce a Hokage?"

Hiruzen sneered and said: "You want to start a war?"

"Yes, so let's start the war." Funan said this calmly.

The Mangekyo appeared in his eyes.

The expressions of everyone present changed completely.

"Funan!" Jiraiya said, approaching him seriously. "Are you crazy?"

"You're the crazy one!" Funan shouted coldly, pointed at Hiruzen, and shouted: "Listen to this beast, what did he just say? 'Uchiha can't produce a Hokage'. Damn, without Uchiha, would Konoha be the way it is today?"

"How much did the Uchiha sacrifice for the village? What about them?"

"What have the four of you done in your seats besides sucking the blood of the village?"

[Puhaa (Spat contemptuously)]

Funan looked sarcastically at Hiruzen. "After you became Hokage, how much the power of the village has declined. No one else knows. As Hokage, you don't know?"

"Except when you first became Hokage and during the Second Shinobi War, have you ever been to the battlefield? Those who went to the battlefield were Hatake Sakumo, Konoha Sannin, Namikaze Minato, and I, Uchiha Funan!"

"Sarutobi Hiruzen, you are definitely the Kage who has fought the least times in the shinobi world. You are greedy for life and afraid of death."

"On what authority do you say that the Uchiha cannot produce a Hokage? Do you have the qualifications?"

"I, Uchiha Funan, the Bloody Flame of the shinobi world, would like to ask you, are you qualified?"

Hiruzen's face turned blue. However, at this time, he really didn't dare to continue irritating Funan. He could feel that Funan really had plans to start a war.

Not only him, but Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui also revealed their Mangekyo.

The pressure of the three Mangekyo made him tremble.

In addition, Hiruzen had to consider today's Jonin vote. That's dissatisfaction with the Hokage!
