Ninja World Live Stream: Was the Sixth Hokage really that powerful?

"Hahaha, let's have a contest then! The future Sixth Generation and the future Emperor Kai!"

Kakashi: "..." How did everything have to be brought up to a competition? "I refuse!"

. . . . . .

After three weeks of grueling training in the back mountains, Naruto finally succeeded in summoning the Great Toad King!

And then the Rasengan was successfully completed!

"I really am a genius, hehehe!" Because of the appearance of the light screen, Naruto, who was given a day off, walked towards Ichiraku Ramen with a big smile.

Then they ran into Sasuke along the way, and the two went to a grove of trees for a chat.

Naruto was covered in bruises and his cheeks were swollen. "Damn Sasuke! He just went for the shot in my face!"

"Hmph, it's because you're too weak!" No way, he only barely won?! Sasuke looked indignant.

In his mind, he should have easily defeated Naruto.

The two people, sprawled on the lawn, watched the content displayed on the screen together.

Speaking of the Hokage selection, Naruto became even more enthusiastic, "I must become a Jonin! And then vote for myself to be Hokage!"

"Damn it! Kakashi-sensei is so popular. If he becomes the Seventh Hokage, won't I have to compete for the Eighth Hokage position?"

"You idiot, you're such a loser. It's impossible, isn't it? Who can be both the Sixth and Seventh Hokage at the same time?" Sasuke, who had absolutely no interest in the Hokage, ruthlessly retorted.

I don't quite understand why that delinquent Jonin is so popular.

He's clearly a trashy Jonin who's always late, loves reading erotic novels, and enjoys fooling students!

[OP: But the newly enacted law stipulates that the Hokage's term of office is twelve years.]

"Twelve years?"

Every ninja village is in an uproar!

(Onoki: 12 years is too short!)

(Raikage Ai: Of course it's short for an old guy like you.)

Ohnoki has been the Tsuchikage for over twenty years.

(Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu: That's good. We should give young people more hope. 12 years is a good time.)

(Hashirama Senju: I think so too. I worked on it for eight or nine years before giving it to Tobirama. Tobirama did a better job than me.)

(Tobirama Senju: But everyone prefers you, if it weren't for...)

Oh well, it's all in the past now.

[27L: They even stipulate term limits? I didn't know that!]

[OP: You definitely didn't read carefully, it's on page 17! The chapter on term limits.]

[28L: I sent a letter of recommendation to the Hokage before, suggesting that term limits be set for the Hokage and other department heads. I didn't expect it to actually be included in this bill!]

[29L: Having term limits is actually a good thing; it prevents the Hokage from not wanting to step down and then secretly harming outstanding young people.]

[30L: The Sixth Hokage definitely won't do it; he'd probably be eager to retire and step down immediately.]

[31L: I guess post #29 is referring to the third generation...]

[32L: Yeah, yeah, yeah, the inside story of White Fang's suicide that Tomato mentioned is related to the Hokage election.]

[33L: That makes sense when you think about it. Konoha's White Fang was a half-Hokage, a hero of World War II, and his reputation once surpassed that of the Third Hokage.]

[34L: Then the Third Hokage was still young and didn't want to step down, so naturally, White Fang became an obstacle.]

[OP: Still talking about this? It's just speculation; it's hard to say what the real situation is.]

[35L: This is a possibility; it has existed in the past and it may exist in the future, so term limits are very necessary.]

(Onoki: Oh wow, so term limits are there to prevent old men like the Third Hokage from appearing again.)

(Kurotsuchi: It's also because of old folks like you who keep occupying the Tsuchikage position that those ninjas are right. You should retire early and give the position to the younger generation.)

(Onoki: You unfilial grandson!!!)

(Hashirama Senju: Wow, that's a very comprehensive plan. The Sixth Hokage is truly amazing!)

(Tobirama Senju: Hmm, not bad.)

(Uchiha Izuna: Heh.)

[36L: It was the same with the Fourth Hokage, right? The handover of power probably didn't go smoothly.]

Suddenly, the gossip he was watching turned into his own. Minato Namikaze, inside the Grim Reaper's belly, stared wide-eyed at the words.

[37L: Yeah, otherwise, how could the Fourth Hokage have died so easily during the Nine-Tails' rampage? Half of his power to mobilize his subordinates was with Danzo, and the other half with the Third Hokage.]

[38L: Then Danzo ordered the Uchiha who could fight the Nine-Tails to clear the crowd, while the Third Hokage ordered the younger ones to hide.]

[39L: In the end, wasn't the Fourth Hokage the only one truly capable of resisting the Nine-Tails?]

[40L: The Third Hokage wasn't entirely wrong; the younger generation shouldn't have been sent to fight the Nine-Tails, only creating more cannon fodder. However, he was too slow and indecisive. If the Uchiha had been sent to the front lines, the Fourth Hokage probably wouldn't have died.]

[41L: Or perhaps it was the Third Hokage who used the Reaper Death Seal, and the Fourth Hokage was unharmed.]

[42L: In the end, it's still about clinging to power.]

[43L: During the early days of the Fourth Hokage's rule, reforms were probably very difficult. Power was likely still in the hands of the Third Hokage and the Elder Council; the Fourth Hokage was more like a puppet Hokage.]

[OP: Hey, this is getting more and more like a conspiracy theory.]

Chapter 54 The Elders, the troublemakers!

[44L: It's not so much a puppet Hokage, but the transfer of power wouldn't be that quick, right? The Fourth Hokage only served as Hokage for a few years, right?]

[45L: Yeah, yeah, there's no need to resort to conspiracy theories and blame everything on the Third Hokage.]

[46L: The Third Hokage did indeed make many mistakes, but as Hokage, he did everything he could.]

[OP: We always end up arguing when we talk about the Third Hokage, I'm used to it, let's change the subject!]

The third generation leader, who was running around outside the village, sighed deeply. His cloudy eyes were filled with mixed emotions of regret and shame. In the end, he could only turn his head away helplessly.

Recalling Tobirama's reprimands and his disappointment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze sharpened once more as he looked ahead.

Now, only by doing what he can will he live up to Tobirama-sensei's expectations.

Inside Konoha Village.

Tobirama's emotions were somewhat complicated. He had always thought that the monkey would probably become an outstanding Hokage.

Unexpectedly, it ended up becoming the most controversial Naruto.

Things are unpredictable.

[47L: Twelve years, which means there are only two years left before the Sixth Hokage steps down. Wow, that goes by so fast! I remember the Hokage candidate was chosen around the tenth year of the Hokage's term, right?]

[48L: That's right! So the Hokage candidate will be announced this year!]

[49L: No wonder Sasuke and Naruto are coming back.]

[50L: The Sixth Generation Boss probably really wanted to retire, otherwise why would he have stipulated term limits?]

[51L: I agree with the comment above. And I remember the first draft of the bill, the sixth president wrote that the term of office was ten years; he really wanted to retire.]

“Ten years is too short,” Tobirama immediately objected. Changing the Hokage too frequently is not a good thing for the village, as it can easily lead to inconsistent policies. However, twelve years is not very long either. Tobirama felt that twenty years would be more appropriate.

However, he could see Kakashi's strong desire to retire.

[52L: Ten years...that's too short!]

[53L: The Sixth Generation Boss is truly a representative of someone who doesn't care about fame or fortune. I love him so much!]

[54L: If it weren't for the infighting at the higher-ups later, it wouldn't have dragged on for 12 years.]

[55L: 12 years is a long time. I remember the Third Hokage was in power for over 20 years? Or even 30 years?]

[Original Poster: But everyone has seen what happened to the Third Hokage; sitting in that position for too long corrupts people's hearts.]

[56L: If the location of the upper floors remains unchanged for a long time, the lower floors will also lose their vitality. Is this the basis for this need?]

[57L: Yeah, the Hokage has been in office for over twenty years, where do the subordinates get the motivation to fight?]

[58L: That's true, but I really wish the Sixth Hokage was still the best; he was truly amazing.]

[OP: The Sixth Generation Boss is getting old; he should at least get some rest. Working non-stop is exhausting.]

[59L: Especially in recent years, Konoha has developed rapidly. The first five-year plan was basically completed, and the second five-year plan was completed quite well! The third five-year plan is gradually being launched. The Sixth Hokage is really busy. If he can rest, he should rest. I hope he takes good care of his health QAQ]

"Five-Year Plan..." Another new term appeared, and Lu Jiu wrote it down in his notebook.

He had a premonition that these were the reasons why Konoha would undergo earth-shattering changes in the future.

"Kakashi is really popular," Jiraiya remarked.

His teacher, the Third Hokage, is highly controversial on the forum, while the Sixth Hokage, Kakashi, is universally praised.

“That’s normal,” Shikaku said. “He brought about a great change in the future of Konoha.”

The forum's ninjas gave them a lot of information about the Sixth Hokage's achievements.

After the Fourth Shinobi World War, he was able to quickly bring Konoha back on track from the ruins... Although I don't understand why it's called ruins, in short, he was able to quickly bring Konoha back on track after the war.

They even vigorously developed the economy, transforming Konoha into the modern, high-rise-lined place depicted on the screen.

on the street.

Guy, who was with Kakashi, reached out and patted Kakashi on the shoulder, "My only rival~ Although being Hokage is a great time, you still need to take care of yourself!"

"Hey hey hey..." Kakashi didn't even look up, completely absorbed in his lovemaking paradise.

[60L: Tsk tsk tsk, back when the Sixth Hokage was elected, countless people opposed him on the newly opened forum. Now... things are different.]

[61L: Is that so? Why are people against the Sixth Hokage becoming Hokage? Wasn't he amazing?!]

[62L: Yeah, no one else could have been as good as him as Hokage.]

[63L: At that time, the elders had not yet stepped down, and those who opposed it were probably people incited by the elders.]

[64L: The Elders again? I knew it, they're like troublemakers in Konoha.]

Elder Koharu and Mitokado Yan were sulking in their own rooms.
