Naruto: Are you worthy of being called Sage Mode?

After seeing Naruto, Jiraiya left Konoha and embarked on a journey to find Tsunade.

Among the Sannin of Konoha, Tsunade was the most disappointed in Konoha.

The deaths of her younger brother Nawaki and her lover Kato Dan made Tsunade completely disappointed in Konoha and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After leaving Konoha, he also cut off contact with Konoha.

Both Jiraiya and Orochimaru maintained contact with Konoha, but only Tsunade completely severed contact with Konoha.

After wandering around major casinos, Jiraiya's royalties were basically squandered by Tsunade. It was precisely because of this that Jiraiya knew Tsunade's location.

Sarutobi Asuma returned to Konoha with the Daimyo's delegation.

"what happened?"

As soon as he came back, Asuma rushed straight to the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was drinking tea and preparing for a few days of retirement.

"Old man, why are you so anxious to get me back?"

On the way back, Asuma also learned that Orochimaru was about to become the next Hokage, Danzo was also taken down, and the root was cancelled.

Such a huge turmoil in Konoha will affect the entire ninja world.

"What would it be like to let you go home and run around outside?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little helpless towards this rebellious young son. He was about to step down as Hokage. If Asuma was still wandering around outside, he would definitely be in danger.

The so-called twelve guardian ninjas are very poor and have great resentment towards Konoha. Several of them believe that Konoha should not exist and that the entire Fire Country should be under the control of the daimyo.

In a few years, Asuma will conflict with these people, leading to the disbandment of the Twelve Guardians.

Now that he has resigned as Hokage early, Asuma will be targeted even more, so it is better to let this kid return to Konoha.

"This is my pursuit!"

However, Asuma didn't buy Hiruzen Sarutobi's fault. He was still young and wanted to start a career to prove himself.

Asuma admired Hiruzen Sarutobi very much, but his ideas were in great conflict with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and he was very dissatisfied with Hiruzen Sarutobi's previous actions.

"I am already old. The village may change a lot in the future. You should come back and contribute."

Unlike Asuma's imagination, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not angry, but his tone was very gentle.

Moreover, Asuma couldn't refuse what Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

The communication between father and son was often due to the mutual attitude being too tough. Now that Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude has softened, Asuma also realized the problem with his tone.

"Okay, I'm going to find my brother."

After saying that, Asma turned around and left. When they met, he found out that his father had changed.

In the afternoon, Koharu went to the Hokage's office together with Mito Kaden and Orochimaru.

In addition to them, the heads of all the major families in Konoha were also present, even Uchiha Fugaku was there.

"Tomorrow, the Hokage succession ceremony will begin as normal, and then Koharu and Mito Monobu will also resign as advisors."

The matter has been decided, but the two consultants obviously still want to struggle.

"Hiruzen, Orochimaru has just taken office, and he doesn't understand many things. He will definitely need our assistance for a while."

Koharu is not willing to give up when he goes to bed, and even wants to be the same as before when Namikaze Minato was in power.

On the surface, Namikaze Minato is the Hokage, but in fact he is just a thug who handles chores.

The core decisions are still made by the high-level officials of Konoha.

"I don't need your help. Jiraiya is back. I asked him to find Tsunade."

Orochimaru has figured out Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts in the past few days.

As a teacher, he is really ready to retire, and he is very resistant to various government affairs in Konoha.

So he directly objected and did not want these two consultants to stay.

"You two should retire early."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke up, agreeing with Orochimaru's words.

In the ninja world, strength still speaks for itself after all. Koharu and Mito Kadeni are struggling to face a jounin now, so how can they compete with Jiraiya and Tsunade?

The ability of Koharu and Mito Katoen, who had previously transferred to the dormitory, to control the wind and rain in Konoha actually relied on the strength of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The heads of the major families were all watching the show.

The ninja clan has been unhappy with the top management of Konoha for more than a day or two.

It was obviously a village established by all major ninja clans, but in the end, a few civilians jumped on their heads.

The heads of the Uchiha and Hyuga families were thinking about what impact Orochimaru's rise to power would have on them.

The one who is most troubled is obviously Uchiha. Uchiha Fugaku is not stupid either. Orochimaru has been coveting their blood chakra eyes for more than a day or two.

Although Danzo is gone, if Orochimaru still targets Uchiha after becoming Hokage, Uchiha's life will be even more difficult.

No one spoke for the two consultants. After a little struggle, they still chose to compromise.

After all, we are getting older and have grandchildren. If we really break up, it will be difficult to deal with it.

The Hokage succession ceremony was held as scheduled, but this time Sarutobi Hiruzen did not talk about the Will of Fire.

"The ninja world is undergoing major changes that have not happened in a century. Konoha needs new hope. Orochimaru will become the Fifth Hokage and lead Konoha to continue to move forward."

After finishing speaking, he handed the Hokage hat to Orochimaru.

At this time, Orochimaru was wearing a god robe and a Hokage hat.

Although the temperament of the imperial robe and Orochimaru were somewhat incompatible, there were still bursts of cheers from the people below.

Civilians never think about it that much.

Although Orochimaru has a bad reputation, he is very powerful. I heard that Jiraiya and Tsunade will also return to Konoha, which makes everyone even more excited.

The ceremony is not complicated. After Orochimaru came to power, Konoha's style changed. Everything was kept simple for better efficiency.

At the same time, the Scientific Research Department was established, with Orochimaru directly serving as the minister, and the Nara clan was invited to join.

It is a pity that this group of highly intelligent and lazy people are not used to conduct scientific research and handle government affairs.

Another piece of exciting news came out.

The so-called "fox demon" is actually the son of the Yondaime! That is, the son of a hero!

For a moment, most of the villagers in Konoha felt extremely guilty.

Naruto and Kakashi now live in the house that was once the Yondaime, and the door is already filled with various gifts.

This made Kakashi a little relieved and a little bitter at the same time.

His father died in public opinion. Why don't these people have their own judgment?
