Chapter 869 Vote of Confidence

    Two dayster


    The entire Konoha Vige fell into a frenzied excitement.


    After the crowing of the rooster at dawn, people began to leave their houses in the early morning and made their way towards the Hokage Building. As they shuttled through the streets and alleys, the groups of twos and threes became a steady stream of people.


    Theughter of children, the giggling ofdies, the arguments and discussions along with the cries of vendors could be heard, creating a lively and enthusiastic atmosphere.


    “What do you think? The Uchiha or the Hyūga? Which one will be the next Hokage?”


    “I think… it should be the Patriarch of the Uchiha n.”


    “Makes sense… after all, he has the Mangekyou Sharingan!”


    “Yes, the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha n is really strong… Others don’t stand a chance!”


    “Eh? But didn’t Hyūga Kuroto defeat Uchiha Shisui? He too possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan… but he lost!”“That is to say, Hyūga Kuroto might not lose.”


    “But I feel that his chances are not that high… the one who is more likely to win is Uchiha Fugaku, after all, trickery can only take you so far, in front of absolute power, it can’t help much.”


    “It’s a pity, thest round was cancelled, otherwise, we would have been able to see an amazing battle!”


    The focus of everyone’s discussion is naturally the next Hokage. Whether Uchiha or Hyūga?


    Most of them are ordinary vigers who have no way of obtaining inside information, and they do not understand the mentality of the top-level of Konoha. Therefore, for them, the Uchiha Patriarch–who has a Mangekyou Sharingan–has a higher chance of winningpared to–a member of the branch family of the Hyūga n–Hyūga Kuroto.


    Listening to the discussions of the vigers passing through the streets, Uchiha Shin–in charge of maintaining thew and order–grinned happily.


    Undoubtedly, the battle between Fugaku and Kakashi has elevated the prestige of the Uchiha n, and the vigers havee to realize the power that the Uchiha n possesses.


    Proud and happy, Shin nced at the Hokage Rock as his eyes swept past the Shodaime, Nidaime, Sandaime, and Yondaime, he muttered with an ecstatic grin, “The Uchiha n will finally have a Hokage! Fugaku-sama has really done it!”


    At this moment, arge group of shinobis dressed in all ck walked through the main street with an imposing aura.


    As everyone noticed the arrival of thisrge group of shinobi, they took two steps back and made way for this group of shinobi, some vigers even went as far as to lower their heads in awe and respect.


    “The Uchiha n!” someone muttered in the crowd.


    That’s right, this group of shinobi is none other than the Uchiha n. The one walking at the forefront of the group is Uchiha Fugaku. Carrying a proud fierce smile he made his way towards the Hokage Building.


    Beside Fugaku, his wife Uchiha Mikoto, and their three children Itachi, Sasuke and Kiyomi are present. After that Shisui and Shinichi.


    Behind Shinichi and Shisui are the other senior shinobi of the Uchiha n including Elite Jonins, Jonins, and Special Jonins.


    Noting the arrival of his Patriarch and fellow nsmen, Shin bowed to Fugaku, “I wish Patriarch the best of luck. The position of Godaime Hokage is yours to take.”


    Fugaku nodded lightly, “Hmm.”


    Feeling the majestic aura exuding from Fugaku, Shin became more respectful and after another deep bow, he took a step back.


    As he saw everyone looking at his father in awe and respect, Sasuke felt happy in his heart, ‘We are indeed the strongest.’ He thought as a proud smile graced his face.


    As his tender age, his understanding of what ‘Hokage’ actually means and signifies is quite superficial, but this does not prevent him from enjoying the way everyone’s awe-inspiring gazes and fearful looks.


    ‘I must also work harder, I cannot allow Otou-sama’s reputation to be affected because of myck of ability, he is going to be Hokage, and as the son of Hokage, I must also be exceptional.’ thought Sasuke as determination to work harder than anyone else took root in his heart.


    Not long after the Uchiha n had passed, anotherrge group of shinobis appeared as they made their way towards the Hokage Building. Different from Uchihas ck, these were dressed in white that matched the colour of their pupils.


    Looking at the iing ninjas with Byakugan, Shin muttered to himself in annoyance, “Be proud while you can, and enjoy all you can… from tomorrow, I am going to make sure that you guys keep your head bowed in front of Uchiha!”


    The ones iing are the Hyūga s, known for their unique Byakugan Kekkei Genkai.


    Walking at the forefront is none other than the Patriarch of the Hyūga n, Hyūga Hiashi.


    Behind Hiashi are the elders of the main family of the Hyūga n. Although they were reluctant to support Kuroto in the Hokage campaign, at Hisashi’s insistence, they had no other choice but toe even if unwillingly. This is the first time someone from the Hyūga n hase so close to bing Hokage, and Hiashi did not want to miss such an opportunity.


    Behind the elders of the main family, Hinata and Hanabi were walking with their caretakers Kō and Natsu.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    These four are followed by a group of Elite Jonins, Jonins, and Special Jonins from the branch family of the Hyuga n. The one leading the branch family is obviously Hizashi, and walking beside him are his wife and excited Neji.


    After Hiruzen and Kuroto reached an agreement, Sandaime decided to release Hizashi. After all, Kuroto was about to be the Godaime Hokage, if they continued to detain Hizashi, it wouldn’t look good for the prestige of the new Hokage.


    Anyway, as the Hyuga n passed by, Shin was surprised, ‘Huh? He did note?’ There was no sign of Kuroto in the Hyuga group, and this made Shin feel a bit weird.


    …


    Kuroto’s Home


    While arranging Kuroto’s hair, Yui murmured in a worried tone, “Kuroto-kun, do we really need not arrive early? Today is the Vote of Confidence, we can’t bete for such an important thing… what if… what if they start without you, and you lose because we were not there on time?!”


    Obviously, Yui is unaware of the agreement.


    Kuroto smiled, “Why are you panicking? The main protagonist always arrives atst! So there is no need to worry, they won’t start without me.”


    “If you say so.” Muttered Yui.


    As Yui looked at Kuroto’s handsome face in the mirror, she was dazed for a moment, “Kuroto-kun? Will your face be carved on the Hokage Rock as well?”


    “Of course.” Nodded Kuroto with a smile.


    To be honest, she is still not used to the fact that Kuroto is one of the two people who are likely to be Godaime Hokage of Konoha. There are times when she is walking through the streets or going somewhere, and people enthusiastically greet her with respect making her unsure how to react. Everything feels surreal as if a dream, ‘It’s all because of Kuroto-kun. Unexpectedly, you have so far… there was a time when you couldn’t even defeat me, and now you might even defeat the Uchiha Patriarch and be Hokage…!’


    Yui suddenly lowered her head with a foolish smile.


    Kuroto asked curiously, “Why are you smiling?”


    Yui answered, “I am thinking of choosing the best sculpture in the Shinobi World for sculpting your face on the Hokage Rock.”
