There are many people who are envious and jealous, but the power of the Uchiha clan is at its peak, and no family dares to speak out.
Within the family, the awakening of Zhishui gave the younger generation great hope.
Many people were excited, wishing that they would be the next awakened ninja.
It was amidst this uproar that Obito and Kakashi returned to Konoha.
In Hokage's office, the two asked Orochimaru to submit the task.
Orochimaru looked at the task report and said: "You two have done a good job, and you have completed many valuable tasks in the past few days.
Next month, there will be a nomination for jounin in the village. I hope you can sign up to participate. With the strength of the two of you, you are completely qualified for jounin. "
Obito suddenly smiled, and a smile appeared on Kakashi's cold face.
Jonin is regarded as the highest level of ninja besides Hokage. He has only graduated for a few years, and he has already reached the level where others have struggled for a lifetime.
As for the elite Jonin, it is more of a title, a symbol of strength, and there is no real assessment and nomination.
"Master Hokage, if there is nothing else, we will go out." Obito said.
Orochimaru nodded, and suddenly said: "Shisui has just awakened the kaleidoscope, and I haven't had time to congratulate your Uchiha clan for another true genius."
Obito laughed loudly and said: "I didn't expect him to be one step faster than me. It seems that I have to work hard. I will go back to him later to discuss and see the strength of the kaleidoscope."
It wasn't until Obito and Kakashi walked out of the office that Orochimaru's expression calmed down.
"It's really a race of geniuses, and the strength of the talent's blood makes people jealous."
With the passage of time, Orochimaru's strength has almost stagnated, and in addition, it has to deal with complicated village affairs.
Even his favorite research has not been carried out for a long time, and the path of Naruto has cut off his path of rising strength and scientific research.
It was only now that he understood why Uchiha Fugaku gave up the position of Hokage.
Hokage is both a right and a responsibility, and in the past year or so, Uchiha's actions have continued, and Orochimaru has seen them all.
Although he doesn't know Uchiha's real secret, he can still feel that Fuyue may no longer look down on Konoha's family business.
At this moment, Orochimaru suddenly had the idea of resigning, he didn't want to continue wasting his life like this.
Although he has the ultimate trump card of reincarnation, no one wants to easily replace the body until the last moment.
Standing up and walking out of the office, a teleportation technique appeared on a building, jumping continuously towards the distance, and soon came to Hokage Rock.
Standing on it overlooking the panorama of Konoha, it is a lot of fun.
The current Konoha is completely different from before, and many streets are planned by him personally, all of which are his painstaking efforts.
"Come on."
A figure flashed past, it was a member of Anbu.
"Lord Hokage."
"Go and invite the head of the Uchiha clan, Fuyue, to come and say that I have something to discuss with him."
"Yes."
The Anbu members disappeared in place in an instant, and after more than ten minutes, Fu Yue walked over from behind Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's pupils shrank suddenly, completely unaware of how Fu Yue appeared.
"Senior, I heard that you have something important to ask me."
Orochimaru forced himself to calm down, and he no longer had the desire to explore Fuyue's strength.
The more you research, the more you let yourself despair.
With a smile on his face, Orochimaru said: "Fu Yue-kun, look at the current Konoha Village, what do you think?"
Fu Yue came over, swept the whole Konoha and said: "The village has become bigger and more prosperous, and this can be regarded as fulfilling the dream of the predecessors.
After all, Konoha's current scale was built by the seniors bit by bit. In terms of contribution to Konoha, I am afraid that the third generation of Hokage cannot compare with the seniors. "
Fu Yue's words made Orochimaru smile unconsciously, and said: "Fu Yue-kun is too polite."
Looking at the scenery in front of him, Orochimaru seemed to be in a daze, and after a few minutes, he spoke again.
"Fu Yue-kun, I already have plans to step down as Hokage."
Fuyue was a little surprised, and said: "Why, now that Konoha is flourishing, why did senior think of abdicating now?"
"Hehe, I, Tsunade, Jiraiya, the three of us were born in Konoha's 49th year, and now it's Konoha's [-]th year.
In a blink of an eye, the three of us are already 39 years old, and we will be 40 years old soon.
Mr. Fu Yue is also 34 years old. While he is still young, he can do something he likes to do. "
Zhishui's awakening kaleidoscope has completely stimulated him. The children he watched growing up are no longer weaker than him. Many people can't accept this kind of change.
Especially a person with strong self-esteem like Orochimaru, who doesn't say anything, but has already made a decision in his heart.
"I support senior's decision, Hokage is indeed a constraint for senior.
The senior is completely bound to Konoha, the world is too vast, and Konoha is too small. "
Orochimaru nodded, although the two had completely different perceptions of this sentence, it did not affect Orochimaru's understanding of this sentence.
