Naruto: My setting is above yours.

"Go ahead!"

Tsunade said, and then walked straight toward Jiraiya.

Yufeng Genma glanced around and saw that Orochimaru was also beside Jiraiya.

The legendary Sannin of Konoha have all gathered!

Behind them sat Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki.

Yes, Kushina Uzumaki was also a Jonin-level ninja!

"Lady Tsunade!"

As Tsunade walked by, the young Jonin greeted her one by one.

Even though they are both Jonin, they are still addressed as "Sir" with respect.

This is the reputation and seniority of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha.

Of course, Sakumo Hatake is no exception; after all, even Tsunade and the others would have to address him as "senpai" (senior).

"Senior Tang Dong~"

"Choza-senpai~"

"Xuanma!"

Yu Feng Xuanma also greeted people he knew.

He knew quite a few Jonin, but compared to the total number of Jonin in Konoha, they were actually only about a third.

This is quite normal.

Without a Jonin meeting, many people are carrying out their own missions; you may have heard their names, but you may not have actually seen them.

Since becoming the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi has convened a very limited number of Jonin meetings.

After greeting everyone along the way, Yufeng Genma arrived at Kakashi's side: "Teacher, Kakashi!"

After exchanging greetings, Genma Mikaze sat down next to Sakumo Hatake.

"Teacher, approximately how many Jonin are there in our village?"

"Imperial Wind Black Horse asked in a low voice."

He had just glanced around and saw that there were already more than twenty people present.

And there are still many empty seats.

Kakashi was also curious and pricked up his ears.

Sakumo Hatake smiled and said, "The exact number of Jonin is probably only known to the Third Hokage."

"Of course, it is obviously the active Jonin, and there are also special Jonin-level ninjas, which can be roughly estimated."

"Look how many seats we've set up today. These are the Jonin who can get here today."

Yu Feng Xuanma said, "There should be 50 seats."

"That means there will be a maximum of 50 people today."

Sakumo Hatake nodded.

Kakashi said, "There are also many Jonin carrying out missions outside, and the Anbu are stationed in various essential positions..."

"So, I'm afraid less than half of the Jonin have come today?"

Hatake Sakumo nodded: "More or less."

In other words, Konoha Village has about a hundred Jonin.

The term "Jonin" includes regular Jonin, elite Jonin, and special Jonin.

That doesn't sound like a lot.

However, if we calculate based on active Konoha ninjas, this percentage is actually not low.

Genma's own ninja number is 009722, while Kakashi's is 009720.

But this doesn't mean that Konoha only has less than 10,000 ninjas by the time it reaches Genma and his group.

This is because it is a ninja number belonging to the Konoha Ninja Academy system.

For example, Danzo's ninja registration number is 000272.

It's impossible that Konoha only had that many ninjas back then, right?

It clearly started with Tobirama Senju establishing the Ninja Academy.

In Konoha, there are many ninjas who did not actually become ninjas through the ninja academy.

I won't go into the details of Danzo's origins.

After all, it was only after the Second Shinobi World War that Root gradually became independent and gained the right to select and train its own talent.

As far as Yufeng Genma knew, not all children from the various ninja clans would attend ninja academies.

Especially in large clans like the Uchiha and Hyuga, family-style education is the mainstream.

Genma Mikasa didn't know the exact number of active ninjas, but he could estimate it based on the current Ninja World War.

The total number of active ninjas in Konoha is probably only around ten thousand.

This is under conditions of non-maximum mobilization.

Because many ninjas actually retired before their designated retirement age.

For example, housewives.

Secondly, Konoha did not mobilize any genin to fight in this Shinobi World War.

However, after such a great battle, it is estimated that the number of active ninjas in Konoha is now less than 10,000.

In other words, roughly 100 ninjas correspond to one Jonin.

Yu Feng Xuanma felt that this ratio was not low.

In addition, promotion requirements are relaxed during wartime, which is also a period of rapid expansion in numbers.

The Jonin arrived one after another.

When Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado appeared, Genma Mikaze turned his head and glanced at them again.

The seats were all occupied; there were exactly 50 Jonin here.

After clearing his throat, Hiruzen Sarutobi began, "This Jonin meeting is now officially beginning."

"This issue is a vote of confidence in the selection of the Fourth Hokage."

"I have already recommended Tsunade to be the Fourth Hokage in the Daimyo's residence, and the Daimyo has agreed."

The Jonin present were not surprised by this.

Rumors about Tsunade becoming the Fourth Hokage have been circulating since last year.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the many Jonin present, his gaze lingering on Orochimaru for a moment before continuing, "Now, raise your hands to vote."

"Those who agree that Tsunade should become the Fourth Hokage, please raise your hands!"

Yu Feng Xuanma immediately raised his hand in agreement.

Sakumo Hatake, Kakashi, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki...

One by one, the Jonin, including Orochimaru, raised their hands.

Fifty Jonin, without exception.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at them and nodded slightly: "Unanimously in favor."

"Therefore, as the Third Hokage, I hereby declare that Tsunade has been elected as the Fourth Hokage."

"Specific details regarding the inauguration ceremony will be announced later. Meeting adjourned!"

The Jonin trust vote passed just like that.

It was really just a formality.

The meeting ended. Sakumo Hatake had a mission, while Kakashi was summoned by the Anbu.

Genma, the Wind-Riding Horse, remained by Tsunade's side, along with Jiraiya and Orochimaru.

Instead of leaving the Hokage Building, the four went to the rooftop and looked down at the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

"Congratulations, Tsunade, you've got what you wanted!"

Orochimaru smiled and congratulated him.

Tsunade remained silent, but Jiraiya interjected, "You, you wanted to become Hokage before, didn't you? It doesn't sound like you meant much when you said that!"

Orochimaru, still smiling, said, "Jiraiya, you're still that idiot."

"For me, becoming Hokage is only beneficial to my research, not a necessity."

"What I care about most is ninjutsu!"

Tsunade frowned, then said, "I won't interfere with your research into ninjutsu, but don't use your own people as guinea pigs. Otherwise, I won't indulge you like the old man did!"

Orochimaru chuckled and spread his arms, saying, "Don't worry, I've already set up an experimental base outside the village."

"Those people outside the village who volunteered to become test subjects, you can't stop them, Tsunade, can you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya abandoned his joking mood and asked seriously, "Orochimaru, are you going to leave the village?"

Tsunade also stared at Orochimaru.

If he dares to defect, she will teach him a lesson.

Orochimaru chuckled: "Idiot Jiraiya, I didn't say that."

"It's just that the village is indeed not suitable for my research."

"Right, Genma-kun?"

When the topic turned to himself, Yu Feng Xuanma smiled and said, "Some of your research is indeed not suitable for Konoha."

Jiraiya immediately shouted, "Hey, Genma, you're not supporting this guy, are you?"

Yu Feng Xuanma shook his head: "If we keep obstructing and restricting him, I think Orochimaru-senpai will have no choice but to defect."
