"What we have to do now is not to hurry. Everyone is already tired. Let's rest on the spot for three hours. Then we will return to Konoha Village in one go and show our triumphant return attitude!"
Namikaze Minato's voice was sonorous and powerful. Now he is ready to fight for the position of Hokage. Now these ninjas are the basis for him to fight for the position of Hokage.
He didn't know how many of these people still supported others.
But even so.
He also felt that he could turn these people into his subordinates with his strong personal charm, so he already cared about them as much as he cared about his own subordinates.
Namikaze Minato is not a person who doesn't understand anything. He is enthusiastic and gentle. He shines on the people around him like the sun and brings warmth to them. But he also knows that this world is not what it seems. It seems so simple, but if you want to become Hokage, it is definitely not as simple as just talking.
In the past, Namikaze Minato thought that the position of Hokage was passed down from generation to generation. As long as he did his best, he might become Hokage. However, as he defined his goal as becoming Hokage, he began to study the past generations. After the Hokage took over, he gradually understood that this was not that simple. There were factions among the Hokages, and he didn't know which faction he should belong to.
Because of this, he felt that he actually had no foundation. This kind of thing was very easy to understand. He watched some records of the first Hokage. These records were all in the archives of the Hokage's office, and he had Qualification to go to the answer is to watch these things.
About half a year ago, he determined to become the strongest Hokage among the Hokages, and he knew very well that the current strongest Hokage among the Hokages was the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama!
Minato Namikaze went to watch some records of Senju Hashirama and became the first Hokage. He understood that Konoha Village was co-founded by Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, or it can be said that it was founded by Senju Clan and Uchiha Madara. It was co-founded by the Uchiha clan. These two families have been fighting with each other for many years. Therefore, when selecting the first Hokage, which clan leader becomes the Hokage will play a vital role in the subsequent development of their clan.
There are no detailed records on each scroll.
But Namikaze Minato discovered that Senju Hashirama initially recommended Uchiha Madara to become Hokage, but he didn’t know that because of what happened, Uchiha Madara left Konoha Village and changed with Konoha Village. He became an enemy and even later returned to Konoha Village to duel with Senju Hashirama.
It was also at that time that Uchiha Madara died in that duel, and not long after the duel, the first Hokage Senju Hashirama also died, and a mythical era came to an end.
These made Namikaze Minato's keen sense of smell immediately sense that there seemed to be some mystery hidden in the position of Hokage. It was not as easy and simple as the records said. There seemed to be some kind of struggle hidden there. Otherwise, according to Senju Hashirama's admiration for Uchiha Madara, If things continue to develop, Uchiha Madara should become the Hokage!
This story made Namikaze Minato understand a word - long nights and many dreams!
He has even brought his character into Uchiha Madara and thought about it. If he were Uchiha Madara, he and Senju Hashirama co-founded the Konoha Village, and the other party respected him as the first Hokage. , then in this case it should be the Hokage. He couldn't figure out why Uchiha Madara would eventually give up the position of Hokage, or...was given up.
When Minato Namikaze first saw such a thing, he felt that there was something wrong with it, but he was puzzled and could not figure out what accident happened that made the position of Hokage return to the thousand shadows. On Tehashirama's body.
These things are secrets and are not recorded in the scrolls of Konoha Village. Only some elders of the two families at that time knew about it. Even ordinary people in the village only had guesses, but they did not dare to say more. .
But these things happened too long ago. Those who were the elders of the family when Senju Hashirama was young are all gone long ago. When Senju Hashirama became the first Hokage, even The current third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is just a child.
Minato Namikaze thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it any more. He kept this question in his heart. He might never get the answer, but he could take it as a warning and feel the position of Hokage. As long as you don't truly become Hokage, everything may be a castle in the air and may collapse at any time.
When I saw the second-generation Hokage later, the person who successfully succeeded the position of Hokage was Senju Hashirama's younger brother, Senju Tobirama.
When it came to inheriting the position of Hokage, there were almost no candidates to compete, and there were no votes to participate, because before the last period of Senju Hashirama's life, the position of Hokage had been passed to Senju Habi. time, and more than that, according to the records on the scroll, as early as the time of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama was already the actual person in charge of Konoha Village. Many decisions were made by Senju Tobirama. Even if Senju Hashirama makes any decision, he must get Senju Tobirama's nod of approval.
This made Namikaze Minato feel an unprecedented pressure.
In the past, before he took life as his goal, he did not think about these issues. He just felt that it was not something difficult to understand, but a matter of course.
But now that he puts his identity in that era, he can realize a problem. Any ninja who aspires to become Hokage actually has no hope at the end of their dream.
No matter what efforts they put in!
No matter what contribution they make!
No matter what kind of great ninja they will become!
The second generation Hokage of Konoha Village was already destined after Senju Hashirama became Hokage!
There is no way it could be anyone else!
In other words...
Everyone’s dream at that time was a false dream!
None of their dreams can be successfully realized!
Because in the position of Hokage, there are no connections or factions, so there is no qualification to talk about dreams, and there is no way to achieve any major achievements.
Namikaze Minato looked around the entire Konoha Village. Whether it was the three major families of Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi, known as Inokachi, or the Hyuga and Uchiha clans who competed with each other for the reputation of being the first family, they seemed Although he is very popular, he is far away from the center of power in Konoha Village. It is almost impossible to become Hokage.
It’s the time of the Sandaime Hokage.
The current Sandaime Hokage was decided by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama before his death. There was no decision or vote by the public at all, and there was no need for others to participate in this process. The Second Hokage Senju Tobirama One person can determine everything.
Of course, before the third generation became Hokage, there were some dangers in this process, but whether it was the Uchiha Mirror who was fighting against it, or Shimura Danzo who was secretly eyeing the position of Hokage, these people were all second generation eyes. Disciples of Naruto Senju Tobirama, they also have the qualifications to become Hokage.
In other words...
To this day, Konoha Village has inherited three generations of Hokage, and each Hokage is a direct descendant of the Senju clan!
Namikaze Minato is not sure if he is such a direct descendant!
If calculated according to the inheritance of master and apprentice, then his teacher Jiraiya has such qualifications, and he is Jiraiya's disciple. Although he is separated by a generation, he should also be qualified.
However, only the third generation of Hokage followed the path of master-disciple inheritance, while the first two generations of Hokage followed the path of family inheritance. There are so few sample cases like this that it is almost impossible to have reference value.
Minato Namikaze knew that if the third generation of Hokage chose to inherit the position of Hokage through family inheritance, then the person who would inherit the position of Hokage would be a member of the Sarutobi clan, which was also a problem that he was currently worried about.
As for Hatake Sakumo...
Namikaze Minato knew from the beginning that he was a contender on the road to Hokage.
But he did not think that Hatake Sakumo could eventually take the position of Hokage, even without his presence...
Because he has discovered that the position of Hokage cannot be achieved easily by just any person or member of a certain family!
There must be some inextricably linked relationships among them, and these relationships can be summed up in just two words - interests.
Must be related to interests!
The inheritance of the title of Hokage, Namikaze Minato, has been studied quite thoroughly. He is naturally talented and extremely smart. It is easy to see the essence of things. Plus, he studies carefully, and it is easy to discover them. key points.
The first Hokage will only be born among two people, one is Senju Hashirama and the other is Uchiha Madara, because these two people represent the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan respectively. The largest power in the Leaf Village, then the right to speak in the Leaf Village must lie in the hands of these two families, and it must not be anyone else. This is not only because the two people are super powerful, but also represent The interests of both families.
As for the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama, the Senju clan needs a new Hokage to continue to maintain the Senju clan's status in Konoha Village. This is related to the interests of the entire Senju clan, but it is a pity. Unfortunately, the Senju clan did not stand up for anyone who could continue, and after the handover of the third generation of Hokage, they disappeared in Konoha Village and became a mysterious history.
With the Senju clan gone, the interests of the Senju clan no longer matter. At the critical moment, Senju Tobirama chose Sarutobi Hiruzen, whom he was relatively optimistic about. This had nothing to do with the Senju clan. The interests of the clan are related to the interests of Konoha Village, but in the face of such interests, Senju Tobirama is still willing to believe in the people he wants to believe, rather than those who are truly more capable.
So...
Namikaze Minato has been deeply aware of this.
Now this thing.
The Third Hokage already represents the interests of the Sarutobi clan!
As long as the Third Hokage is still there, the interests of the Sarutobi clan will still exist, and in order to ensure the interests of the Sarutobi clan, the successor chosen by the Third Hokage is likely to be a member of the Sarutobi clan.
This puts some restrictions on Namikaze Minato becoming Hokage!
Namikaze Minato understands this deeply, so his expression is not so relaxed. If it were looked at by others, he already has the qualifications to become Hokage, but that is just an appearance. If it comes to these On the surface, the former Hatake Sakumo also had the qualifications to become Hokage, but all he had was a half-sleeved Hokage robe.
Learning from the past!
Although Namikaze Minato did not completely believe what Hatake Sakumo said, he did know that this was a lesson learned from the past and could be used as a reference, especially after he listened to some stories told by Hatake Sakumo himself. , he already vaguely believed that if he didn't do anything when he went back this time, the achievements he had accumulated would be turned into a half-sleeved Hokage robe.
If so.
Then he will lose the possibility of becoming Hokage.
You must know that such an attack defeated the Third Ninja War. If he could not become Hokage even after this, he could not imagine any greater achievement!
After this battle, each ninja village will recuperate. There will be no war for at least 10 years. What will occur is only small-scale friction. The pattern of the ninja world will return to a relative state. It's a relatively stable scene.
In this case...
Namikaze Minato felt that if he could not work hard and take this opportunity to become Hokage, then he would not be able to accumulate more achievements in the future.
Eventually the position of Hokage will be passed from the Third Hokage to the Fourth Hokage of the Sarutobi clan just like the First Hokage was passed to the Second Hokage!
Namikaze Minato did not speculate on the Third Hokage with the greatest malice. In his heart, he was still more inclined to respect the Third Hokage, but this did not mean that he was an ignorant novice. He still had a defensive mentality. After all, even he knows very well that if he wants to become Hokage, now may be his only chance. If he misses it, he will miss it in this life.
"Got it!"
The ninjas at the scene nodded one after another~IndoMTL.com~ They were able to take a breath, and their faces showed many relaxed colors.
After all.
From the beginning of the war to now, their nerves have been tense almost all the time!
Even if they know that standing behind Minato, there will be no more danger!
However, this sense of crisis has been lingering in my heart and has not been easily eliminated!
At this moment, they can rest for a while, which makes them suddenly feel extremely tired, making each of them feel sleepy and full of things.
Everyone's eyelids became heavy.
I even want to sleep for a while.
After all, they have all heard Minato's order. They must return to Konoha Village with a full attitude and look like they have returned victoriously from the war.
At this time.
Minato didn't tell them about the Hokage position.
But each of them knew that Minato wanted to become the Fourth Hokage. Even if they didn't say it, they felt it!
