Hokage Candidate List!?

"It can be said that Orochimaru is indeed a talented genius in this era of war."

"However, there is a great malice and ambition in his eyes, and I can't entrust the heavy responsibility of the Hokage to such a person."

Seeing that all the people present looked at themselves, the Third Hokage stood up from his positions and said.

Although Orochimaru is one of his disciples he is most optimistic about in the past few years, Orochimaru has taken a path that more and more deviated from his original expectations and collude secretly with Danzo.

While sad, the Third Hokage will absolutely not allow themselves and the predecessor Hokage's Will of Fire, to collapse into the hands of people like Danzo and Orochimaru.

"Hiruzen!"

Seeing that he was about to push his partner Orochimaru to the throne of Hokage, the Third Hokage stood up and obstructed him, Danzo suddenly couldn't help but stand up.

"I recommend Minato Namikaze."

Ignoring Danzo standing up next to him, the Third Hokage continued to speak and say his ideal candidates.

"The apprentice of Jiraiya, that is, one of the Third Hokage's disciples."Hearing the candidate proposed by the Third Hokage, the Konoha elder on the other side, Homaru opened his mouth to supplement.

"He's an elite ninja known as the Yellow Flash of Konoha. He's really a good candidate."

At this time, another elder, Koharu, also said.

"Oh? Is it the Yellow Flash?"

Hearing the candidates recommended by the Third Hokage, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire sitting in the throne, lit up his eyes, and the minister of the Land of Fire present also whispered for a while.

Indeed, compared with the gloomy and cold Orochimaru, the sunny and decent Minato is obviously more in line with the positive image of one of the leaders of the five ninja villages in the ninja world!

The name of the Yellow Flash has risen like a comet on the battlefield in recent years. There is no one in the whole ninja world that does not know him, and his strength has completely reached the Kage level.

"But Minato is too young!"

Seeing that the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the minister present were about to be moved by Third Hokage, Danzo was immediately anxious.

"Minato won the victory of the Battle of Kannabi bridge and was a great contributor to guiding the end of the Third Ninja War."

"If you think he is too young... then the other person I recommend will definitely surprise you even more."

Danzo stood up, was in the expectation of Third Hokage. After interrupting Danzo's words, the Third Hokage took out a piece of information and put it on the conference table in front of everyone.

"This is ?"

Seeing the documents that the Third Hokage put on the conference table, everyone present was stunned.

"Third Hokage... In the past year, the ninja mortality rate of Konoha Ninja Hospital has only been 10%?!"

Looking at the information in front of him and looking through the data recorded above, the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Fire looked shocked.

"Yes, and this information shows that the mortality rate of Konoha's ninja in the process of carrying out their missions has also decreased by nearly 60 percentage points compared with the previous period, which is really surprising data!"

Similarly, looking at the data report in front, another minister of the Land of Fire present couldn't help but be surprised.

"Ha ha..."

"This data is brought by Asakura Hao when he became the medical captain of Konoha last year..."

Seeing the surprise on the faces of everyone present, the Third Hokage continued to speak with a smile.

"Moreover, the medical talisman he developed last year is a major achievement that can change the current configuration pattern of ninjas..."

"The medical talisman benefits for the ninjas on our front line can greatly reduce casualties and make it easier to gain an advantage in this war."

"Hiruzen!?! Are you!?"

Hearing that Third Hokage actually mentioned this name in such an important meeting,

Danzo next to him suddenly was shocked.

"Asakura Hao?"

"Is it the King Crimson who has become famous on the battlefield recently?"

After listening to the words of Third Hokage, the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Fire suddenly showed a look of great interest, and the ministers around him whispered.

Obviously, all the ministers of the Kingdom of Fire present have also heard of this name that has recently risen like a supernova on the battlefield.

"Yes, King Crimon is the recent accepted disciple of the Third Hokage, and it could be said that he is the Kouhai of the Sannin."

"Although he is still young, in the past year, almost no one can surpass his performance on the battlefield."

At this time, Homura, who sat with Koharu, nodded. For profit reasons, he chose to stand on the side of the Third Hokage this time.

"No wonder you think so highly of him. Indeed, King Crimson is a rare genius!"

"Whether it is his achievements or contributions to Konoha, he has brought us incalculable value..."

Homura with the wrinkles on his face turned to the side, and turned his eyes to Third Hokage. He rarely agreed with him. "So Third Hokage, do you mean...?"

"Well..." The Third Hokage took a deep breath, brewed his thoughts for a long time, and finally said, "I want to put Asakura Hao on the list of Hokage candidates this time..."

"What?!"

"Absolutely not!!!!"

Hearing the words of Third Hokage, everyone here was shocked. Danzo directly exploded and objected, "Are you crazy!!? Asakura Hao is much younger than Minato Namikaze! How can he be a candidate for Hokage?!"

"Age is not a problem. I am not sure to let him be Hokage, so I said it's just a candidate..."

After listening to Danzo's opposition, the Third Hokage continued to say indifferently.

"Well, the consideration of the Third Hokage is not unreasonable..."

At this time, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire in front of everyone seemed to agree with the Third Hokage. "In terms of strength, King Crimson is indeed qualified. In terms of identity, he is a disciple of the Third Hokage. In terms of credit, he is one of the greatest meritorious people in this war, and he served as the medical captain and developed the medical talisman, which really brought us huge benefits..."

"Konoha.. it's time to give Konoha to the young people..."

"Daimyo?!!"

When Danzo saw that the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Fire had also agreed with the opinions of the Third Hokage, he was suddenly a little anxious.

"If there is no problem, let's make it official!"

The Daimyo directly ignored Danzo's opinion and when the Third Hokage saw that the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Fire agreed, the Third Hokage directly made a decision. "Then we immediately draw up a list of candidates for Hokage, ranking Minato as the first candidate, and Asakura Hao and Orochimaru as other candidates."

"Hmph!"

"I hope you don't regret the decisions you made in the future!!"

Seeing that everyone present had decided on the list, Danzo in anger directly brushed his sleeves and got up.

After leaving the Daimyo mansion of the Kingdom of Fire, Danzo's face turned pale, and the position of Hokage had always been his coveted target, but now it is completely controlled by Hiruzen's faction, which made him unable to calm down at all.

"Damn, in the final analysis..."

"It can be blamed on that Orochimaru is not popular at all... Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so passive now!"
