Orochimaru looked up and the sky was already gloomy. Even if it was covered by dark clouds, it was still dusk.

Danzo sent someone to find him several times, and he also had a big conversation with Danzo. Naturally, the conversation between the two could not avoid this fourth-generation Naruto election.

Danzo's meaning is very clear and he supports Orochimaru, but he also hopes that Orochimaru can completely hand over Anbu to him as the Hokage Queen.

Orochimaru didn't say anything about this. He didn't care much about Anbe. Even though he had some ideas about the position of Hokage, he didn't care if he really couldn't be elected.

Compared to dealing with tedious things in the village, he prefers the feeling of studying the true meaning of ninjutsu. When he saw the principles of ninjutsu being analyzed by himself and deducing new ninjutsu that had never appeared before, he was happy.

However, his recent research has had a bottleneck and has not made any progress for a long time, which has made him very distressed. For this reason, he secretly caught more experimental subjects, but it seems that they are not very useful.

He also knew that if this kind of forbidden experiment is carried out in places like Konoha, the consequences will be very serious once it is discovered.

In fact, Danzo knew a little about these experiments. In some aspects, he also cooperated with Danzo's "Root" team, and even some of the technologies were obtained from "Root". I heard that they were left behind during the second generation of Naruto.

But even though I know, Orochimaru also understands that such a thing is really exposed, Danzo will definitely not stand up to protect him, and even the first person to take the blame is Danzo.

This kind of thing is normal, just like some things that everyone knows, they cannot be exposed to the sun.

Xiaoxue became anxious, and Orochimaru let out a breath and got up and returned to the house. After nightfall, it was time to study this habit. He had maintained it for many years.

...

In the quiet valley, a piece of white, and the bright moonlight shines on the earth, reflecting the entire valley in silver, like a dream.

In the middle of the valley, lights flashed faintly, and in a bamboo house, two people sat opposite each other around the fire.

There was an iron pot on the fire, and a pot of wolf meat was cooked inside, which was just hunted.

Kyung looked at the information in his hand under the fire and chuckled: "Koha's Naruto election will begin in three days. Unexpectedly, after so many years, Sarutobi still remembers Hashima's rules."

Opposite him was a whirlpool Mito in white. Her red hair reflected bright colors under the fire. When she heard Gen's words, she looked up and said, "Are you going to elect a Hokage again? It's the fourth generation. Time really passed so quickly without realizing it. I still remember the situation when Hashima elected the Hokage, and the whole village was boiling."

Kyung smiled and still put the information in his hand into the fire, "Yes, Madara and Hashirama competed for Hokage, I even denied Hashirama many times. I still remember the expressions of the senior executives of the Qianju clan at that time. Haha, I can laugh when I think about it now."

"You can do that." Uzumaki Mito chuckled. The two witnesses of the establishment and prosperity of Konoha, talking about the past history under the moon in the snow, had a different taste.

"By the way, Gen, it has reached the era of the fourth generation of shadows. When will the plan you mentioned start?" Mizuto suddenly asked while chatting.

Xuan was stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw the bright moon in the sky through the bamboo window, which was still so bright. "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this? Don't you usually care about this?"

Mito curled his body, not because of the coldness, but just subconscious action. She whispered: "I just heard you say that you have elected a new Hokage again, and I feel a little moved. Also, I miss them a little..."

"That's it." Gong sighed lightly, without asking who "they" were, and smiled, "Don't worry, it's almost time. I've been here for so many years, and the rest of the time is just a few blinks. Obito has inherited Madara's name and started to move, and Nagato's reincarnation eye has awakened. Most of the preparations have been completed, and the rest only needs to be patient."

"Yeah..." Mito nodded slightly.

———————————————————————

The day of the general election in Konoha Village finally came, and on that day, all the villagers got up early.

Whether they are older or younger, whether they are ninjas or ordinary people, they all go to the Naruto Building at the same time.

Before the Naruto Building, it will be decided who will be the fourth generation of the Naruto, where the stage for election has been set up.

Among Konoha, even some older ninjas have not experienced the so-called Naruto election. The average lifespan of ninjas is too short. Sarutobi Hizun and Shimura Danzo are definitely considered to be a high life, but even they have not experienced the early election of Konoha, let alone other ninjas.

When the villagers came to the Naruto Building, a magnificent election stage appeared in front of them, and there were already ninjas from Anbe below, maintaining order.

As candidates, Natsumizuno and others remained silent on the stage, watching the villagers gathering here constantly.

Even if they are excited, they try to calm themselves. At this time, they must not show too much joy and anger.

As the third generation of Naruto, Sarutobi Hinaru sat behind him and watched this scene quietly. Although he was leaning towards Minato, he also had a complex relationship with Orochimaru. After all, he was his favorite disciple. Therefore, he tried his best to be fair.

Let the task of choosing Naruto be handed over to all the villagers to see what they really think.

Everything went as planned. At 10 o'clock in the morning, Sarutobi stepped forward and announced the start of the election himself.

Voting and classification, everything was going on calmly. The entire election lasted for a whole day. Fortunately, Konoha's villagers were not large, and Sarutobi prepared enough staff.

When the night was about to come, the lights were lit in Konoha Village, the statistics were released. Hakumizu Gate was elected with a huge advantage of over half of the votes of Orochimaru. The candidate for the fourth generation of Naruto was confirmed.

Later, I heard that Danzo wanted to express his objection, but was suppressed by Sarutobi Hinato.

At the end of the 57th year of Konoha, Hakumizuno became the fourth generation of Naruto.
