Both of them were shocked, although they already had some guesses in their hearts, when they heard Sandaime's decision, they couldn't help but be stunned.
For any Wood Leaf ninja, Naruto is the highest level of pursuit and recognition.
And the two of them saw the end of the road while others were still trying to climb.
The two looked at each other and said almost at the same time:
"Garashi is the most suitable candidate!"
"I support Minato-san!"
"Oh, you two are modest." Sandaime said with a smile in his eyes. "However, you shouldn't refuse each other. The title of Hokage is not only about power, but also a symbol of responsibility and obligation. Only by putting the person who is truly suitable for this title in this position can you be responsible for yourselves and everyone in the village!"
"Now, don't be bound by those distracting thoughts, tell me your answer again!"
The two of them thought for a while and said firmly:
"No matter how I think about it, Garashi is more suitable!"
"Minato-san is more suitable than me!"
"You two!" Sandaime shook his head, "If you let Danzo know that Naruto, who he has been thinking about all his life, is being pushed around by the two of you, I think he will die of anger! How about this? You guys tell me your thoughts in detail. Minato will go first. "
Minato was silent for a moment and said, "My idea is actually very simple, that is, only the best person can be Naruto, and Garashi is better than me, so he should be the Yondaime-sama!"
"Better? That's too general. "Sandaime wasn't satisfied with his answer.
Minato had no choice but to continue, "In terms of war contributions, Shisui's invention of the Medical Scroll saved many people during the war. He facilitated the formation of the Sand Shinobi Alliance, which led to the early end of the war on the western front. His action of killing the Mizukage also led to the end of the shinobi war!"
"In terms of strength, Garashi is also much stronger than me. As the Naruto, Garashi can intimidate the other villages so that they won't easily start a war. As for popularity, Garashi will definitely be recognized by more people than me!"
"No matter how I look at it, Garashi is much, much better than me!"
Sandaime didn't comment and looked at Garashi. "Garashi, what do you think?"
"My view is the opposite of Minato-san's. Many of my methods are actually immature," Garashi said with a serious expression.
"Just like the time with the Sand Crypsis, in fact, I guessed that the Kazekage's proposal was to intensify the conflict between me and Danzo, but at that time, I really didn't like Danzo, so I agreed."
"Although the final result was good, but from the situation at that time, it was indeed a big risk. If Danzo didn't back down at that time, maybe we would have fallen into a situation of disintegration. I should have considered it more thoroughly at that time!"
"Secondly, the action to kill the Mizukage, although it was a lucky success, and it even ended the war, from the perspective of a leader, I was impulsive."
"If the action failed, not only would I not be able to take revenge, but I might have lost everyone there, and it might even strengthen Kirin's determination to continue the war, which would lead to unimaginable bad consequences! From this point of view, I am too easily bound by emotions, which is not a good quality for a Kage! "
After a pause, Garashi looked at Minato with sincere eyes. "I don't hide my idea of becoming Naruto, but now I am not mature enough, and if I become Naruto, whether it is for me or for Wood Leaf, it is not a good thing! So, Minato-san, you should be the Yondaime-sama! "
"Garashi, you …" Looking at Garashi's sincere eyes, Minato didn't know what to say for a while.
Sandaime-sama sighed in his heart, "I didn't expect that Garashi has never failed to see himself clearly."
The two things that Garashi said were actually what he was worried about.
Being praised by too many people, it is inevitable that there will be times when he can't see himself clearly, but now it seems that Garashi is far calmer and more sober than he thought.
Shushi sighed inwardly. "Unfortunately, now is not the time!"
Of course, he wants to become Naruto, but not now.
On the one hand, he still needs to collect the Chakra of the other four tailed beasts, it's not that he can't do it if he becomes Naruto, but it will always be a bit of a hindrance.
On the other hand, what he wants to be is the Naruto without any restrictions, not the current Yondaime-sama who is restricted in all aspects.
You know, even Sandaime-sama is restricted by the two Naruto advisors and Danzo, if he becomes the Yondaime-sama now, he will be restricted even more.
In his vision, he needs an opportunity to break through the upper level of Konoha, and when the middle and lower levels of Konoha are completely disappointed with them, he will stand up and establish his absolute authority with the image of turning the tide.
It is precisely because of this that he made the decision to kill the Mizukage, which is absurd and shocking in the eyes of outsiders.
This action can not only make his reputation reach a height that ordinary people can't reach, but also let him use this as an excuse to push Naruto.
Seeing Minato and Sandaime-sama silent, Garashi smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I also have my own thoughts, if I can learn from you as Naruto's assistant, when I become Naruto, my performance will be more perfect in front of everyone!"
Sandaime-sama also slightly nodded, "Minato, you agree, Garashi is younger than you, and the Yondaime-sama may be more suitable for him."
Seeing the two talk like this, Minato had to agree with a wry smile, "This is also good, if Garashi puts pressure on me, at least I can always maintain a humble and cautious attitude."
Sandaime-sama nodded with satisfaction, "Then it's settled, I will go with several advisors tomorrow to discuss the Yondaime-sama's purpose."
Garashi smiled and looked to the side, "Should I congratulate you in advance for becoming Naruto?"
Minato said helplessly, "Garashi, you are obviously more suitable to be Naruto than me … So, when you feel that it's suitable, I will go to the Yondaime-sama to resign!"
Shushi pretended to be angry. "That's where you're wrong, Minato. As Hokage, how can you always think of resigning? You should make yourself as strong as possible, so that I have the motivation to chase after you! "
Minato thought seriously for a moment, then nodded and said, "You are right, since you are sitting in that position, you should be responsible for everyone, not so irresponsible."
Looking at this harmonious scene, Sandaime-sama secretly sighed, "As expected of the two who truly comprehended the will of fire!"
At first, he was worried that the two would have a grudge like Danzo, but now it seems that he was completely overthinking.
