----------

At the meeting, the huge conference hall was already full of people. Since the number of people exceeded expectations, many Jōnin even sat cross-legged in the aisle, but no one objected to this.

This time, Akimichi Torifu was still the chairperson of the meeting, with two advisors on both sides. Sarutobi Hiruzen, as the Hokage, was still not present, and the signal released by this move was somewhat elusive.

But things have come to this point, so they can only continue, and even the Hokage cannot change it.

The atmosphere was a bit silent, which was actually quite inexplicable, but no one took the initiative to speak, and most people's eyes subconsciously focused on Uehara after entering.

The really surprising thing is still outside. Today, not only Ishigami Hara came, but even Tsunade and Orochimaru, who had not appeared for a long time, came. In addition to Jiraiya, who was still on the front line and had not returned, two of the Sannin had come.

In addition, Hatake Sakumo, who returned from the Sunagakure direction, was also there. It can be said that all those who meet the requirements and may become candidates for Hokage are here.

"Everyone!"

The Akimichi at the top saw that almost everyone had arrived, so he took the initiative to speak: "I think everyone is clear about the content of this meeting, so let's not waste time and start voting for candidates. The rules are as follows..."

The specific rules are to nominate several candidates, then select the top three from these candidates, and finally hold another round of voting. The one with the most votes wins.

Of course, after reaching this step, it does not mean that the winner will directly become Hokage. This process also requires a handover. However, after reaching this step, the winning candidate is basically set to become Hokage.

After the requirements were explained, the scene was still silent, and no one wanted to be the first person to speak.

At this time, Tsunade stood up and said, "Let me make it clear first. I will withdraw from this candidate nomination."

Wow!

As soon as the words came out, the scene immediately became lively. Many people cast surprised eyes at Tsunade, as if they did not expect her to say this, especially some people who had already made up their minds to vote for Tsunade. At this time, their faces changed.

"Tsunade-sama, you are the most suitable person to become Hokage. This nomination cannot be done without you."

Someone immediately spoke up, appearing very anxious.

Tsunade is the granddaughter of the First Hokage, and the disciple of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. She is also one of the Sannin and the most outstanding medical ninja in the village. With all these identities, becoming Hokage has always been the popular choice before.

So her saying that she would withdraw from this nomination really exceeded many people's expectations.

Tsunade shook her head and said, "I'm not interested in becoming Hokage."

It was very direct, and her attitude was clear, but some people still asked, "Tsunade, can you explain the reason? Many people in the village hope that you can become Hokage!"

Tsunade looked calm, and her expression did not change after hearing this. She said bluntly, "There is no reason. Being a Hokage is too tiring, that's all."

This reason was very strange, at least it shouldn't have come from Tsunade's mouth, but she said it, and it was quite direct.

At this moment, some people's expressions became ugly, especially the two advisors at the top, who couldn't help but cast their eyes at Tsunade.

Utatane Koharu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Tsunade, do you know what you are saying?"

Tsunade glanced at her and said directly, "You don't need to tell me."

"I said that I will not become Hokage, and I don't want to become Hokage."

"Whoever wants to be the Hokage can do it. I'm not interested."

After saying that, Tsunade stared at Utatane Koharu, her voice still flat. "Have I made myself clear enough?"

"Krr..." 

Utatane Koharu gritted her teeth in anger, but she could do nothing.

As a Hokage, Tsunade is the most suitable one.

Among those who support Tsunade, in addition to the one who just spoke up and some people present, the two advisors are the most concerned.

After all, whether in public or private, it will be good for them if Tsunade becomes Hokage.

But now Tsunade directly refused, which directly cut off the two consultants' future plans.

How can they be satisfied? 

"Hehehe..." 

A low laugh sounded in the room, and Orochimaru stood up, without looking at others, and said directly, "I will also withdraw from this election."

"Everyone, don't vote for me."

"Orochimaru!!"

At this time, the two consultants could no longer hold back, and Mitokado Homura couldn't help but shout softly.

Orochimaru seemed to be unaware and said to Tsunade, "You are so straightforward, do you want to help me?"

"Tsk, not interested."

Tsunade was even more direct and left without caring about others.

"Hehehe."

Orochimaru looked at Tsunade's back as she left, just chuckled, and then sat down again without caring about others.

The atmosphere became even more weird.

"Sister."

Nawaki was also there. He was originally just a Chūnin, but after being transferred back from the front line, his ninja level was promoted to Jōnin, and it was a rapid promotion.

He just happened to catch up with this meeting, or it could be said that the top management intended to let him directly participate in this meeting. Others did not know the intention, but those who knew the inside story certainly understood why the top management arranged it this way.

But Nawaki had been very quiet since the meeting began, and his presence was not strong. When he saw his sister leave, he hurriedly chased after her.

Thus, the meeting had just begun and two Jōnin had already left, and both of them were descendants of the First Hokage. This action fell under the eyes of the two consultants at the top. They were clearly very angry.

Recalling Nawaki from the front line and raising his ninja level was prepared for this meeting. Nawaki may not be as famous as Tsunade, but now he has mastered Wood Release, is just as young, just as talented, and has the foundation to become Hokage.

But Nawaki's attitude of not caring about the atmosphere at the scene really gave the two consultants a headache.

At this time, someone finally spoke up to break the atmosphere.

"I nominate Jōnin Ishigami Hara as the candidate for Hokage!"

The speaker was Ishigami Fū. He and Ishigami Koki had experienced the war and had been greatly improved. They were also promoted to Jōnin. It was appropriate to be the first to speak at this time.

Sure enough, soon after the words fell, someone followed up: "I also nominate Jōnin Ishigami Hara!"

At the top, someone had already written down the name on the blackboard and recorded the number of votes.

"Ishigami Hara Jōnin is very suitable. He is young but talented, and he is experienced. He is definitely suitable to be Hokage. I also nominate him as a candidate for Hokage!"
