Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
Chapter 836 Do You Even Want to Become Hokage?Kuroto’s Home
While the entire Konoha was enveloped in chaos because of the Hokage Election, Kuroto didn’t pay too much attention to this matter. All his attention was on the ‘Type II Biological Armour’.
‘Let’s see… I will have to design a new molder… then…’
‘Nutrient Solution has to be optimized.’
‘Fusion Solution has to be improved.’
‘Cell Reagent has to be created for the needs.’
‘And all these things…’
One after another, Kuroto wrote the tasks he had to complete for ‘Type II Biological Armour’.
While Kuroto was busy, Yui entered the room and asked, “Kuroto-kun, are you really not going to go? This is a big matter… you have been nominated as one of the four candidates… you should discuss this with Patriarch.”
“There is no need.” Said Kuroto with a smile, then he looked up and asked, “By the way, Yui, did you do what I asked? How are my odds?”Even Yui was speechless at Kuroto’s carefree tone, and sighed, “Sigh… Kuroto-kun… really… Even at such a time rather than worrying about the elections you are more interested in such trivial things? Unlike you… the others are working hard for the election, they are visiting other Clans in order to get their support… Even Kakashi-san has already visited major clans!”
“Huh? Since when did Kakashi start doing such boring things?” muttered Kuroto in surprise, he did not expect Kakashi to do such a thing, and sighed in fake disappointment, “I am disappointed.”
Seeing Kuroto’s overacting, Yui held her forehead and sighed, “Sigh… you really don’t plan on doing anything, do you?”
Kuroto answered, “Well, I didn’t say that.” And added after a pause, “I will do what must be done.” Then he looked at Yui, and asked, “Anyway… so… as I was asking… what are the current odds?”
‘You will do what must be done huh?’ thought Yui with a smile. Then she looked at Kuroto and answered, “Well… I did inquire secretly… but the problem is, currently, there is no official notice on the list of nominated candidates, therefore, the odds haven’t been settled yet, but… well… I did catch whispers… and they are not in your favor…”
“That means, for me, the odds are highest.” Muttered Kuroto with a smirk.
“The odds are highest for you… which means that the villagers are least optimistic about you! How can you laugh about this? Shouldn’t you be a little worried?” asked Yui in disbelief, and added in a dissatisfied tone, “Humph… everyone is looking down on you… you need to show them that they are all wrong… you are just as good as anyone… in fact, you are better than others!”
Among the four candidates, one is considered the strongest Shinobi on the side of the five great nations, the second person is renowned as the ‘Silver Hunter’ because of the Flying Raijin Jutsu that he has mastered, while the third person is the Patriarch of the strongest clan in Konoha. Compared to these three, Kuroto doesn’t have much reputation or glory.
True, people appreciate Kuroto because of the results he has shown in the Anbu and Ninja Academy, but that is not enough to garner fame, reputation, and respect like Shisui, Kakashi, and Fugaku.
Most of the populace of Konoha believes that it will be one of these three to become the Godaime Hokage.
Of course, Kuroto isn’t bothered by what people think of him.
But unlike Kuroto, Yui is not happy with how everyone is underestimating him.
Seeing her dissatisfied expression, Kuroto spoke, “Now… now… don’t let them bother you… I was nominated as a candidate… is that not enough, are you not happy?”
Taken aback, Yui immediately looked at Kuroto, and said with a bright smile, “Of course, I am happy!” then she held Kuroto’s hand and added, “Kuroto-kun… you are amazing… you are the first person in our clan to be nominated… I never imagined that one day you would reach such a height… Of course, I wish that you succeed and become better than anyone… but still… I am… I am really happy seeing you like this… this is like a dream… if it is really a dream, then I do not wish for it to end… who knows… you might even become the Hokage. I wonder what you will look like wearing that Hat and Haori.”
“I suppose now I will have to win the election to show you how I look while wearing that hat and haori.” Muttered Kuroto with a smile.
“Humph… but how will you win?” asked Yui, and pointed out, “You are not even visiting anyone… The vote of Confidence is also very important… yet you are so carefree about it. If you wish to win, then you need the support of Jonins.”
Most Konoha Jonins are part of different Shinobi Clans, therefore, to obtain the support of Jonins one needs the support of those clans.
This is the reason all the candidates including Kakashi and the Uchiha Patriarch are visiting different shinobi clans, asking for their support in the election.
Hearing Yui’s question, Kuroto shrugged, “There is no need to worry about these things… Hokage-sama and Koharu-sama will take care of it.”
Yui asked helplessly, “Then what are you going to do?”
Kuroto answered with a smile, “Of course, I will stay at home and not disturb them so that they can do their work.”
Yui sighed, and asked, “Do you even want to become Hokage?”
Kuroto remained silent.
Considering the current situation, the chances that he will win the election are very small.
The Hokage Faction supports Kakashi, the Uchiha Clan supports the Shisui and Fugaku. Unlike them, Kuroto doesn’t have such support.
Moreover, currently, he is extremely busy with his projects and has no time to put his attention on the Hokage matter. Besides, even if he does want to become Hokage, as long as Kakashi is the candidate that the Hokage Faction supports, he won’t be able to become Hokage unless he reveals his true strength. Which is a big no-no for him.
Hokage’s position is indeed a bit enviable, but in the grand scheme of things, it’s not important enough for Kuroto to reveal his strength.
Therefore, Kuroto has decided that for now, he will only watch and let things happen.
In any case, officially, the election won’t commence until the Daimyo of the Land of Fire arrives in Konoha, and that will take at least a week, so he has enough time to plan things.
