Chapter 194: Announcement of the 4th Hokage

The next morning, Xingye Feng summoned all the senior executives.

The heads of all departments were present, as well as the patriarchs of all the ninja clans in Konoha.

Looking at the people with different expressions, Xingye Feng chuckled and said, "You all are well-informed. You got the news so quickly."

The people below had different expressions, all said nothing, and lowered their heads slightly.

The air pressure at the scene seemed to drop.

Seeing this, Xingye Feng chuckled and said, "It seems that everyone has different opinions. Lu Yi, you speak up."

The deer that was named raised its head with a serious expression, completely different from its usual calmness, and there seemed to be endless words in its eyes.

Even Lu Yi, who had retired and went home, was invited back to this meeting, which shows the importance of the meeting.

He first looked around, then frowned and said, "Hokage-sama, given the current situation, are you a little anxious?"

After hearing this, everyone nodded in unison, and it was obvious that they thought the same thing in their hearts.

It's not easy to find a Hokage with vision and ability.

They are not blind. Now that living standards are rising, everyone can see how brilliant Xingye Feng's policies are.

Seeing the people below share the same expression, Xingye Feng slowly shook his head and said kindly: "Of course I know all this."

Everyone pricked up their ears, hoping to get a reasonable explanation.

"But Konoha can't just rely on me alone. The younger generation also needs a stage."

"You know, more than half of the people standing here are young people."

After so many years, many elderly people have given up their positions and handed over the management of their families to their younger generations.

Looking around, most of the people standing in the office today are young people.

Hoshino Kaede showed a gratified smile: "I feel very happy to see them. I am glad that Konoha can have such outstanding young people."

"The future will definitely belong to the young. If that's the case, why should I occupy the position of Hokage?"

The words were deep and sincere, touching and deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Everyone present is smart and those who can stand here are already the backbone of Konoha.

Naturally, you can distinguish the truth from the false in the words.

"Hokage-sama is determined to retire."

This sentence emerged in everyone's mind.

Seeing Hoshino Kaede's gentle yet decisive attitude, Lu Yi sighed: "Okay, then who will be the next Hokage?"

The Hokage was only decided yesterday, so even if they were well-informed, it was impossible for them to know the specific candidate.

After hearing this, the others all looked forward to it and looked at Xingye Feng curiously.

According to their intelligence, the current candidates for Hokage are just those few.

Xingye Feng didn't keep the secret and said, "I have three candidates in mind, and Lu Yi is one of them, but I don't think he will agree, so I crossed him out."

His eyes focused on Nara Shikaichi, who nodded neither servilely nor arrogantly, and said calmly, "I've retired, so don't bother me anymore."

These words have already made the stance clear, and some people can't help but feel a little regretful, after all, Shikaichi is qualified to compete for the position of Hokage.

"The remaining two are Hatake Sakumo and Sarutobi Hiruzen."

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of the people present changed, with more surprise than confusion.

They were not surprised that Hatake Sakumo was chosen, as his strength and prestige were there.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen was a bit unexpected. This second-generation disciple was actually on the list of candidates.

It is said that a new emperor appoints his own ministers. The fact that three generations in power would nominate people from the second generation really makes people think a lot.

But more of it is admiration, as there are almost no people who dare to do so.

Seeing the different expressions below, Xingye Feng's smile became even more intense: "Who do you think can be the Fourth Hokage?"

There was complete silence in the field, and everyone seemed to be thinking deeply.

Uzumaki Ashina narrowed his eyes but did not move. He was probably the only one present who was as steady as a rock.

Because the Nine-Tails is sealed in Kushina, and Kushina is a member of the Uzumaki clan.

No matter who becomes the Fourth Hokage, it is impossible for him to make things difficult for the Uzumaki clan.

After a stick of incense, Xingye Feng signaled Lu Yi with his eyes.

Lu Yi's mouth twitched and he cursed inwardly, but on the surface he pretended to be profound and spoke first.

"I support Hatake Sakumo!"

The words of this person carried a great weight. As soon as he opened his mouth, some families, especially the Yamanaka and Akimichi families, gave their full support.

Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza exchanged glances and smiled.

The three tribes of Pig, Deer and Butterfly share the same hatred and hatred for the enemy. Now that Uncle Lu Yi has spoken, they, as the younger generations, naturally have to follow.

The words of the former elder of the Nara family seemed to be a signal, and the four major families all felt moved.

Almost at the same time, they said, "I support Hatake Sakumo!"

In an instant, 80% of the senior executives sided with Hatake Sakumo, while the rest were still struggling.

However, these people were harmless. Hoshino Kaede stood up and said loudly: "It seems that the Fourth Hokage is the popular choice."

Then, he paused, looked out the door with a smile on his face, and said, "Shuomao, come in."

Almost instantly, Hatake Sakumo walked in with a calm expression.

At this moment, everyone understood that the Fourth Hokage had already made the decision and what he did just now was just for show.

"Everyone, long time no see." Hatake Sakumo greeted everyone with a smile.

Having been in charge of the Anbu for many years, he exudes an aura of majesty without even getting angry, and a hint of murderous intent inadvertently spreads in all directions.

The faces of some people who were not determined suddenly turned pale, and their bodies swayed, as if they were about to fall to the ground.

Xingye Feng shook his head, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. Suddenly the fierce aura dissipated, and Xingye Feng looked at everyone.

"The Fourth Hokage has been chosen, and the succession ceremony will be held in January. I hope you will help me."

Everyone did not dare to neglect it and shouted: "We will definitely help with all our strength."

Hoshino Kaede nodded, smiled at Sakumo, then walked out of the building and left a message.

"Konoha is now presided over by the Fourth Hokage, please do not disturb unless necessary."

Nara Deer, who knew his temper well, could not help but hold his forehead in frustration after hearing this.

The way he handled his job as a shopkeeper was really smooth and fluent. He must have practiced it countless times in his mind.

Lu Yi complained in his heart, then looked at Hatake Sakumo and said, "Master Hatake, please take a seat."

Hatake Sakumo came back to his senses, nodded, sat on the highest power chair in Konoha, took a deep breath, and then began to get into the role and discuss with everyone.

After unloading the burden, Xingye Feng suddenly felt empty in his heart, as if a corner of his heart was missing.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This guy is really a little uncomfortable when he is idle."

But he was only lost for a moment, then he gathered himself, stretched himself, and said with nostalgia in his eyes.

"Once this matter is settled, other matters can be put on the agenda."

"Teacher... we will see each other again soon."
