The leisurely life of the Hyuga main family

Did they really think that sending someone to find Tsunade in secret would go unnoticed?

It's important to understand that neither Koharu Utatane nor Homura Mitokado were ever truly indispensable; they were the weakest members of the Konoha Advisory Council.

For Shikaku, there was no need to interfere in such trivial matters.

And here comes the surprise!

Who would have thought that after Lady Tsunade gave those two advisors a good beating, she would turn around and leave, and then come back and confidently recommend Lady Hakugetsu to become the Fifth Hokage!

Look how good things are now.

Although the process was a bit strange, Shikaku's original intention was simply to raise Hakugetsu's reputation in order to prepare for becoming the Sixth Hokage.

But somehow, inexplicably, the recommendation was approved by a group of high-ranking officials.

Now that the higher-ups have fully agreed, all that's left is to go through the motions of gathering the Jonin to vote, and it will be a done deal.

"I've arrived!" Just when Shikaku was worried that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the changes couldn't keep up with the surprises, Danzo finally arrived.

Looking around, Danzo was first drawn to the nonchalant Jiraiya and the lazy Tsunade, especially the smell of alcohol and a strange fragrance emanating from them, which made him frown!

The three forbidden ninja rules—these two guys never took them seriously! Hmph!

"..." Then, Danzo saw Mitokado Yan with a bruised and swollen face and Koharu Utatane with slightly bruised eyes.

Serves you right for not supporting me becoming the Fifth Hokage! Hmph!

"With Danzo's assistance, we all agree to recommend Lord Hakugetsu as the Fifth Hokage. What do you think?" Shikaku asked directly.

As for Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado's opinions? Heh, ask them if they still dare to support Tsunade becoming the Fifth Hokage?

Are you afraid of getting knocked down by Bangbang's punches again?

"In that case, I have nothing more to say. I agree." With that, the limited edition of today's Hmph Monster Danzo made a grand exit.

Danzo's easygoing nature ironically made Tsunade and Jiraiya lose confidence.

So decisive and efficient? Could there be a trap?!

Or is Bai Yue in cahoots with this bastard?

The two exchanged a glance and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

"In that case, I will convene a Jonin meeting tomorrow to formally confirm Lord Hakugetsu as the sole candidate for the Fifth Hokage!" Now that all the advisors and two highly respected masters have agreed, Shikaku is naturally preparing to decisively finalize the selection of the Fifth Hokage.

"Alright..." After Shikamaru spoke, Tsunade and Jiraiya had no further questions.

After all, this person is known as... no! This person is the smartest person in the ninja world. Unless he is controlled by genjutsu, he would never collude with a rat like Danzo.

However, one thing still piqued their curiosity: why would Danzo and Shikaku, two people who had absolutely no connection, both choose to recommend Hakugetsu, an unknown guy?

This is no joke. If we're really talking about achievements, let alone those two, even Kakashi and Asuma have higher reputations than Bai Yue. It's just that their achievements aren't as substantial as Bai Yue's, but their reach is far greater.

In other words, Shikaku genuinely wanted a powerful ally first. Danzo, on the other hand, felt that Hakugetsu was like him, and that through subtle influence, they would likely reach a consensus, which would be no different from him becoming Hokage.

If all else fails, he still has Kotoamatsukami! As the head of the Hyuga clan and the Hokage, it's worth it for him to use Kotoamatsukami.

"Now that the Fifth Hokage has been chosen, this sage will be going on a journey!" Jiraiya immediately stood up and said. Konoha was a good place, but how could he, a wanderer, be bound here forever?

He still needs to go out to find the chosen one, collect material for his novel, and find Orochimaru and gather information about the Akatsuki organization.

Jiraiya-sama is very busy too!

"Lord Jiraiya, you should at least wait until Lord Hakugetsu becomes Hokage before you go out, right?" Shikaku hurriedly said. Even though he could easily create momentum, having two legendary ninjas, Jiraiya and Tsunade, on his side would make things much easier for him.

If things can be made easier, the Nara family will naturally not push things into complicated situations.

"Well... alright then." Jiraiya understood what Shikaku meant. After thinking for a moment, he agreed. After all, Shikaku was his grand-disciple, and Naruto had only managed to live a decent life thanks to Jiraiya's care.

As for why Jiraiya felt Naruto was doing well? The Third Hokage couldn't comment, but the Great Pot Man had absolutely nothing to say about it.

"Yes, I will also stay in Konoha for a while." Seeing that Shikaku suddenly looked at her, Tsunade nodded in agreement.

"That's great! I'll go and start preparing for the Jonin meeting right away." Even if it's just a formality, it still needs to be done thoroughly.

"Okay, then I'll head back now." With that, Tsunade stood up, leaving the rest to her own devices for the time being.

"Wait for me, wait for me..." Jiraiya quickly followed...

After watching the two leave, the three advisors looked at each other, and finally Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado lowered their heads helplessly.

"So, what's next..."

With the selection finalized within the Hokage Building, a series of tasks began.

On the other side~

"Brother, it's getting cold, put on another layer of clothing..." Hinata said sweetly, her face flushed.

Is it cold? I don't really feel it.

Its physique is already as robust as the white moon, impervious to heat and cold, and it is indifferent to the changing seasons.

However, this is a gift from my beloved Hinata, and she might even have made it herself.

How could we let them down?

"Thank you, Hinata, my little angel. I love you!" With just a casual remark, Hinata instantly transformed into a steam princess.

With a soft "plop," my brain's CPU overloaded, and I collapsed limply.

"Tsk tsk, still too small, too easily embarrassed..." Helplessly, she picked it up and placed it on the recliner. Bai Yue stretched and strolled over to the little ones.

"My little ones, have you gotten tired of this training lately?"

"No, no, everything's fine now," Kiba Inuzuka replied immediately.

Just kidding, if others don't understand, how could he not understand?

Whenever their teacher, Baiyue, tries something new, they are always the ones who suffer.

"Teacher Baiyue, I want a more rigorous trial. This current training is useless to me!" Since awakening the Kaleidoscope, Erzhuzi has successfully evolved into Sunny Pillar.

"Excellent! That's the spirit we've been looking for!" Bai Yue clapped her hands and praised, "Sasuke is very good!"

"Teacher, then I want an even more rigorous trial!" Kiba Inuzuka couldn't stand such provocation and immediately raised his head.

"very good!"
