In the office of the Hokage.
"Erwache came into contact with the Uchiha Clan...»
Hiruzen whispered heavily as he listened to the Shinobi Anbu report.
Like Eroiche not abandoned the intention to help Orochimaru in the struggle for the post of the Fourth Hokage. In addition, coming into contact with the Uchiha Clan can be extremely dangerous and deserves close attention.
Incredibly strong Erase plus the strongest clan of Konoha...
It wouldn't be too difficult for them to pull off a coup and seize power in Konoha, not to mention that Yeruashi is followed by Rin Nohara, who became Jinchuriki Sanbi.
«...»
Hiruzen felt a severe headache.
Everything is as expected...
As soon as the war came to an end, any actions of Yeruashi began to cause wariness and anxiety, because he has too much personal power.
"Hiruzen, we need to do this as soon as possible.»
Danzo, who was standing to the side, looked at Hiruzen: "Contact with the Uchiha Clan is a signal. If we ignore this now, it will be much more difficult to solve the problem in the future...»
At the moment, most representatives of the upper layer of Konoha support Minato's candidacy. At a recent private meeting, they also came to a consensus, deciding that making Minato the next Hokage would be the best choice.
Orochimaru is good.
But he is inferior to Minato in many aspects.
Once they decided to support the candidacy of Minato, you should pay close attention to Erase and Orochimaru, especially in Erase. This guy is much more dangerous than Sannin.
"You want to control Erase...Danzo, I don't agree.»
Hiruzen looked at Danzo and said softly.
Danzo is too radical.
Erase is the Hero of Konoha, still not causing any harm to the village. It is too excessive and radical to take it under control just because of future possible threats. In addition, Erase too strong, it won't be so easy to take control.
"We must act decisively...»
Danzo stared at Hiruzen and said coldly, " Unless you want Orochimaru to be the next Hokage.»
Hiruzen slowly raised the pipe to his mouth, took a deep drag, and exhaled a puff of smoke.»
"Hiruzen...»
Danzo started to say something, but after looking at Hiruzen's face, he took a deep breath and shook his head: "Then we'll see how you handle it»
After saying that, Danzo turned around and left the office.
After Danzo left, Hiruzen took several deep drags and finally made a decision. He put the phone down on the table and left his office, going to Orochimaru's lab.
...
Two days later.
House Of Erase.
After listening to Rin, Kakashi, and Yeruashi's account of what had happened, including their meeting with Obito, Minato fell into a reverie and nodded: "I get it...thank you Erase.»
"No thanks, Rin and Kakashi are my closest people, I couldn't sit back when they were in danger.»
Erase shook his head.
Minato looked at Kakashi and Rin, " Then I'll go.»
"Yes.»
Kakashi stood up and walked Minato to the door.
After leaving Minato, Kakashi came to Erase and said seriously: "Senior brother, soon to be elected as the Fourth Hokage.»
Erase looked at Kakashi.
He sat down on the sofa and said, " So, you want me to support Minato?»
"No.»
Kakashi shook his head and said resolutely, " Big brother, you are Orochimaru's student and should support him, but I think Teacher Minato is better suited for this.»
Erase closed his eyes.
Rin's gaze darted between Kakashi and Erase, but it did not interfere in the conversation. Rin was well aware that she couldn't easily interfere in this matter, but in her heart, she also felt that Minato's candidacy was more appropriate.
In fact, Orochimaru also had good support, especially before the Third World War Shinobi, but Minato shone too brightly in the war.
Both geniuses and excellent Shinobi.
But in this clash of geniuses, surely someone will be the loser.
In silence.
Yeruashi slowly opened his eyes and stared at Kakashi.
Feeling this gaze on him, Kakashi felt a strong pressure, because at this moment, not only his older brother was looking at him, but also the legendary Silver Flash of Konoha.
"It doesn't matter who you support, Kakashi.»
Seeing the nervous Kakashi, he suddenly gave a wry smile, " This is not a matter that someone like you can influence, brother.»
Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his older brother's words.
In fact, he was a little afraid.
Ever since he was a child, he had always tried to catch up with Yeruashi, but he had never gone against him.
Standing behind Yeruashi, he felt light and calm, as if any problem could be solved without much difficulty, but standing in front of him, he felt terribly depressed.
Kakashi was first expressed an opinion contrary to Erase.
They stand on opposite sides.
"You two....it is not necessary...»
Nervous seeing Kakashi and Rin, of Erase could not help but smile.
Hehe, it looks like his big brother's authority is really great.
In fact, Yeruashi had already thought about Kakashi's position earlier, but didn't care too much about it, because in this world, his closest person is his younger brother.
In addition.
It's other people's business.
Feeling that the tense atmosphere had suddenly relaxed, Rin let out a sigh of relief and smiled, " It was frightening...»
"You have a brother...»
Kakashi hesitantly looked at his brother.
Erase took the Apple, took a bite and relaxed back on the couch, "I of course will support teachers Orochimaru. Although your position contradicts mine, but it does not matter, different people always have different opinions.»
"You're right...»
Kakashi sighed, understanding his older brother's decision.
Because of Erase student of Orochimaru.
....
In a couple of weeks.
Hiruzen called a high-level meeting.
Only Elite Jounin and the heads of large clans were qualified to attend.
This meeting was attended by a fairly large number of Shinobi, each of whom had a certain status in Konoha. Among them were the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Hokage advisors Mitokado Homura, Koharu Utatane and Danzo Shimura, Sannina Jiraiya and Orochimaru, as well as Minato Namikaze, Hatake Yeruashi, Uchiha Fugaku and many others.
Only the Shinobi responsible for combat readiness or engaged in performing some important missions did not arrive.
Many people guessed the purpose of the upcoming meeting, but did not bring this issue out.
Soon everyone was there.
After a brief summary and discussion of the situation in the Shinobi world, Hiruzen moved on to the main issue.
"So...what is your opinion about the candidacy of the Fourth Hokage?»
