Chapter 354 The election scene
"It's difficult for me to give you an answer for a while, I need to think for a few days, in short, I will definitely give you an answer."
Sarutobi Hiizhan weighed and struggled for a long time, after all, this matter is too much, even if he is Hokage, he is not weighing the pros and cons in a moment and a half.
Uchiha Mai stared at Sarutobi Hiizan for a long time, then put away the fishing gear, supported the hat, turned to leave, and said, "Let's go.
I look forward to your reply, it’s boring, I can’t catch a single fish, it’s really boring. "
I sat here for a long time, although it was mainly to talk with Sarutobi Hizan, but I didn't catch a single fish, which was still a little uncomfortable.
Uchiha Mai became more and more angry, and while walking, the corner of his eye glanced at the lake surface, and pointed out, the chakra turned into a few silk threads, and shot at a few big fish of three or four pounds in the lake.
wrapped it around it, pulled it up with a hook of his fingers, and threw it into the fish basket around his waist.
This is called fishing, using chakra to turn it into silk thread, this is a technique only used by many awesome puppet masters.
However, with such a powerful Uchiha Mai now, he also has a writing wheel eye. Unless the real attribute does not support it, most of the special skills can be mastered at a glance.
Sarutobi Hiizhan stared at Uchiha Mai's back, and knew that he had to give Uchiha Mai a statement no matter what, either to be fair or to be a candidate for Hokage.
They are unwilling to return empty-handed when they come out to catch a fish. People who are accustomed to using some special cheating skills are very double-standard.
If Sarutobi Hidzen does some small moves without compensation, he will completely tear his face with Uchiha Mai.
shook his head and put away his fishing gear, and Hiruzen Sarutobi returned home. After several days of polling, he found that the situation became more and more optimistic.
There are more and more people supporting Mai Uchiha. This is the case with [election]. Whoever shouts loudly and draws a cake that is attractive and feasible will get more votes.
Compared with Uchiha Mai's campaign slogan, Minato's campaign manifesto looks very pale, and if it wasn't for a better image, it would have been killed long ago.
As Election Day approached, Sarutobi Hidzen finally made a decision.
The official location of the election was held in the Naruto Great Hall, and Sarutobi Hiizhan had already arranged everything. Hundreds of ninjas with voting rights bustled into the hall and took their seats according to the position of the nameplate on the table.
Behind the nameplate is a piece of paper and a pen, with different numbers printed on the corner of the paper, most of which are 1 or 2.
Fugaku is 5, Tsunade is 4, Uchiha Mai is 7, this is the number of votes each of them has.
Fuyue took a look at the pen and paper in front of him, then turned to Uchiha Mai beside him and asked, "How is it, do you have confidence?"
"What faith?"
"The confidence to choose." Fuyue replied, and then asked himself: "It should be, but I have visited a lot of people with Tsunade-sama these days."
Fuyue's tone was a little excited. After so many years, Uchiha, who established Konoha with the Qianshou clan, is finally going to have a Hokage.
A few years ago, the Uchiha family still needed to please Hokage's face and survive in the cracks. Today, a few years later, Jingjing has become a veritable first giant that can compete with the Hokage family.
"Whether you can choose it depends on the meaning of Hokage."
Uchiha Mai said casually: "However, I have 100% confidence that I will become the most powerful one in Konoha after today."
In contrast, Uchiha Mai hopes that he will not be selected. As far as the current situation is concerned, Hokage advisor + Hokage alternate is more fragrant than Hokage.
The world of ninja is a civilized society after all. If you don't want to liquidate the Bangzi Kingdom, after Sarutobi Hiizan abdicates, he will still be Konoha's Hokage assistant.
Mai Uchiha or Minato, either of the two took over the position of Hokage from Hiruzen Sarutobi, and there is no way to be **** Hiruzen Sarutobi when they disagree.
It doesn't sound very good to go out. The third and fourth generations are also called a special teacher-student relationship. Orderly elders and children, respecting the teacher and valuing the Tao are the traditional virtues of the ninja world.
On the other hand, even if Hiruzen Sarutobi surrenders the position of Hokage, his authority in the Hokage department will not change.
I'm afraid that when many Naruto ninjas encounter problems, the first thing that comes to mind will be him instead of the new Hokage.
The only one who can break this game is Tsunade, the founder of the medical ninja system + the only successor of a thousand hands + the identity bonus of the two Naruto granddaughters is too large.
Even Uchiha Mai is not afraid of the Hokage department, and after taking up the role of Hokage, he will be restricted by secular prejudice and public opinion, but he can't help Hiruzen Sarutobi.
When you eat in a pot, you have to abide by some rules, and you can’t think about smashing the pot all day.
Hokage Candidate + Hokage Consultant is a better choice, because it is a quasi-fifth generation, with a fourth-generation in the middle, and there is no direct connection with the first three-generation of Sarutobi Hizan.
is more convenient to fight in the air.
At the same time, because there is a fourth-generation Hokage on the top of his head, one day when he and Sarutobi Hijian fight to the extreme, when the city is full of storms, he can even buckle the **** pot on the fourth-generation head.
How can a Hokage candidate in me dare to insist on his own opinion and always oppose the first three generations?
That's all because I was instructed by the Fourth Generation!
The fourth generation was not satisfied with the status quo that the first three generations frequently intervened in Konoha's major decision-making, and was unwilling to personally end the game to affect his own image, which hurt the harmony with the third generation, so he instructed me to fight against the third.
My Uchiha Mai is bitter, I sacrificed too much for Konoha.
A few minutes later, Hiruzen Sarutobi walked up to the podium with a bright face, stood in front of the table and held the ballot box to deliver a simple speech of seven or eight hundred words.
then cut to the point and said: "Then, the final voting session of the Fourth Hokage campaign officially begins.
The candidates are Orochimaru, Namikaze Minato, and Uchiha Mai, the three who have made outstanding contributions to Konoha. I will not introduce their deeds one by one, I believe you all know them.
Put a pen and paper in front of you, the number of votes you have is printed on the corner of the paper, write the name of the candidate you support on the paper, and put it into this ballot box.
The statistics will then be done by myself.
In line with the principle of fairness and justice, this voting adopts an anonymous system, I hope everyone can understand. "
After that, Sarutobi Hizan picked up the pen and paper next to the ballot box and wrote a name, folded the paper and threw it into the box, giving everyone a demonstration.
As a Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally also has the right to vote, and the number of votes surpasses Mai Uchiha, as high as 9 votes.
4 votes for Naruto + 3 votes for the Minister of Education + 1 vote for the patriarch of the Sarutobi clan + 1 vote for Konoha Joinin.
Uchiha has 3 votes for the Minister of the Imaginary Department, 3 votes for the Minister of the Headquarters in Wu, 1 vote for Konoha Joinin, and Konoha’s single votes are the second most.
After finished the demonstration, Hizan Sarutobi walked off the podium with a smile on his face, and instantly cast a cryptic look at Mai Uchiha.
is quirky.
[Spiritual Vision] ability was turned on, Uchiha Mai looked at the ballot box, only to see his name written on the ballot of Sarutobi Hizan.
Sarutobi Hiizan supports Minato. Under normal circumstances, he will fight for every vote, and he will never vote for Uchiha Mai with his 1 to 9 votes.
So, there must be something odd about this election.
Uchiha Mai smiled, and it seemed that she could get what she wanted. She picked up the pen on the table and wrote the name of Minato Namikaze on the ballot.
Fuyue, who had just written his name on the ballot paper, happened to look over and was shocked to see Mai Uchiha's move, and whispered to persuade: "Mai.
Now is not the time to talk about teacher-student friendship and humility is a virtue, every vote is precious, not to mention that your vote has the second highest value of Konoha.
I bet that the ticket for Namikaze Minato had his own name written on it. Even if he wrote your name, we still lose 3 votes. "
"It's okay." Uchiha Mai waved his hand.
Fuyue was very anxious in his heart. The two of them were only in the middle, but they couldn't ruin their great future because of the waves.
Wrong…
After a few seconds, Fuyue reacted because it was related to Uchiha's long-cherished wish, and Uchiha Mai's move must have deep meaning.
Could this election have an inside story?
After more than ten minutes, everyone cast their ballots into the boxes, and Hizan Sarutobi walked up to the podium again and stood in front of the table.
After another speech, he said: "Next, I will read the votes on the ballot paper, and Sannin Jirai will also count the votes on the blackboard.
The candidate with the highest number of votes will become Konoha's Fourth Hokage. "
is like a village cadre campaign in the village.
"Mai Uchiha, 1 vote.
Mai Uchiha, 1 vote.
Namifeng Minato, 1 ticket.
Namifeng Minato, 2 votes…”
Sarutobi Hizan slowly took out the ballots from the box one by one, and after reading the votes, he destroyed the ballots, which was fair and just.
Jiraiya was also on the blackboard, recording the votes of the three.
After a while, there were more than 20 "positive" characters under the names of Uchiha Mai and Namikaze Minato, and the votes were over 100, and the gap was very small. You chase after me.
And under the name of Orochimaru, there are only a few straight characters, and the votes are not enough for a fraction of the other two.
Orochimaru, sitting under the stage, felt like he was sitting on the execution rack, and every glance around him was a whip dipped in chili water.
Happiness is theirs, I'm just a clown.
Orochimaru clenched his fists in anger, feeling ashamed, wishing he could leave this great hall immediately.
Danzo's face was also ashen, and he knew that Orochimaru was so useless, so he voted for Naikaze Minato for himself and his roots.
Right now, the votes of Namifeng Minato and Uchiha Mai are extremely close, and leaving Orochimaru far behind, which means that all the votes for Orochimaru will become [invalid votes], showing no value.
If you vote for Naikaze Minato with your own and the root, maybe it will be the key to the victory and defeat, and let Namikaze Minato beat Uchiha Mai.
Danzo's attitude and expectations for this campaign are the same as Lin Xian'er's feelings for swordsman Ah Fei: anyone can do it, but you can't.
on the other side.
Master Men was sitting upright, staring nervously at the number of votes on the blackboard that could not be widened, his left hand and the left hand of Kushina beside him were clasped together, fingers crossed.
Feeling that her husband's palms were quite wet, Kushina stroked her lower abdomen and said softly, "Don't be nervous, Minato.
The gap between you and Wu is very small. At present, whoever wins and whoever loses is possible. But whoever of you can become Hokage is a good thing for Konoha.
Some things are good as long as you work hard and leave no regrets. At least you have worked hard, and it has proved that you are no worse than anyone in everyone's heart.
Whether you can become the fourth Hokage, you are my husband and the father of my children. "
"Um."
Namifeng Minato nodded, his nervousness eased a lot, and he wrapped his arms around his wife's waist, feeling unprecedented peace of mind.
Even if I don't become the fourth Hokage, I will become the happiest husband and father in the ninja world.
In the entire venue, only Uchiha Mai was the most calm, and his expression was always the same, because the ending was already doomed.
Uchiha Mai has always maintained the state of [Spiritual Vision], and every time Sarutobi Hizan takes out a vote, he can see the specific votes and names on it.
Sarutobi Hi cut some hands and feet, and he gave some votes that belonged to Uchiha Mai to Namikaze Minato.
The actual number of votes is Uchiha Mai 147, Menshi 106, and Orochimaru 22.
emmm, Orochimaru's number of votes is normal, and Sarutobi Hiizan neither added votes to him nor divided his votes.
Before the election, Hiruzen Sarutobi unequivocally supported Minato, and threw all the resources of the Hokage series on Minato, just to fight Uchiha Mai.
Many supporters of Orochimaru are people from the Hokage family. Between Hokage and Orochimaru, they must choose the former. Those who are willing to vote for Orochimaru are pure hardcore.
The combination of various reasons resulted in a miserable number of votes for Orochimaru.
"Namifeng Minato, 7 votes."
Sarutobi Hiizhan read out another ballot, and Jiraiya behind him quickly added one straight character and two more pictures under Minato Namikaze's name.
Because of the extra 7 votes, Minato's votes on the blackboard instantly surpassed Mai Uchiha, and opened a positive gap.
There was an uproar in the conference room, and there was a murmur.
Although it is an anonymous vote, many votes with special numbers can still be reversed to reveal the identity of the voter.
For example, if the number of votes is 5, and the vote is for Uchiha Mai, then the voter is most likely Fugaku.
And 7 votes is better to push back, it must be the two ministers, Konohakami Uchiha Mai.
Master Chrysanthemum tightened his eyes, with surprise, overwhelm, gratitude and many other emotions flashing in his eyes, and turned his head to look at Uchiha Mai.
Then he quickly lowered his head with guilt, ashamed of his selfishness and his shameless behavior.
"What's wrong?" Kushina asked with concern.
Master Men whispered: "In order to be successfully elected to the fourth generation, I voted for myself.
Actually, at the time, I thought about voting for Orochimaru-sensei or Mai, especially the latter, his concept of [One Ninja World, One Dream] is really convincing.
In the end, my selfishness and shamelessness convinced myself: vote for yourself, voting for yourself is a more confident performance, doesn’t voting for others mean that you yourself think you are inferior to others?
Now I found out that I was wrong, Mai voted him for him, no one will doubt whether Mai has the ability to match Naruto, nor whether he is confident.
This is the expression of true self-confidence.
He has the noblest morality and the purest heart in the ninja world. Compared with Mai, I am just a despicable, shameless, selfish villain. "
