Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan - Chapter 838 - Declaration of Dreams

Konohagakure

Early Morning of the day, people began to gather at the venue of the Hokage Campaign from all over the village. The venue appeared to be a stadium with a large capacity.

Because of the fermentation for the past few days, everyone was interested in the Hokage Campaign and who would become the next Hokage. The streets were filled with banners supporting different candidates.

Everyone was excited about the first round of the Hokage Election. The adults were discussing the different advantages that each candidate brought to the table, the children were supporting their idols, and the vendors were roaming through the streets trying to sell their stuff. The village appeared so lively and full of energy as if in the midst of a festival.

In the midst of all the excitement, under Jiraiya’s lead, several people carrying a large sedan chair with the emblem of the Land of Fire slowly entered the stadium from the main entrance.

As soon as they walked inside the stadium, Sarutobi Hirzen and Utatane Koharu came down and greeted the man sitting inside the large sedan chair, “Daimyo-sama thank you for sparing your precious time to watch the first round of the Election… it’s our pleasure to have you here.”

“Hm… No worries Hiruzen. The Hokage Election is something I too care about. And since you sent me the invitation, it was natural for me to accept the invitation. Now, why don’t you introduce me to the different candidates? I would like to personally know the people who will be leading Konoha in the coming years.”

“Yes… yes.. of course.” Nodded Hiruzen, and said, “Let’s first get comfortable.”

“Hm.” Nodded Daimyo as he followed Hiruzen to the VIP section.

In the VIP section, there are a total of six seats. Other than the Sandaime Hokage and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the four Kages of the other four great Shinobi Nations have also shown their interest in watching the matches of the First Round of the Hokage Election.

On the other side of the Stadium

“Any luck Neji?” asked Sasuke.

Neji–with his Byakugan active–was searching for seats. As the two kids were looking for seats, suddenly they heard a familiar voice and looked in that direction.

Naruto waved both his hands and shouted loudly, “Neji! Sasuke…! This way! This way… Come here quickly… there are still vacant seats here!”

Hearing Naruto’s voice, both kids excitedly ran towards him.

Although there is still a lot of time before the First round starts, the venue is already crowded with people. Everyone is excited about the tournament, so they are in a hurry to come to the stadium in order to get better seats for a better view.

As Sasuke and Neji took their seats, Naruto asked, “How is it? The view is good from here right?! Everything is visible!”

Neji nodded, “Indeed.” Then he looked over the stadium and spoke, “So many people have come to watch.”

“That is natural, after all, this is related to the Hokage Election.” Spoke Sasuke, trying to find his father and brother in the stands.

Naruto asked, “Sasuke… Neji… who do you think will become the Godaime Hokage?!”

Neji replied without giving it a thought, “Of course, it will be my Sensei.”

Sasuke snorted, “No he won’t.” and added, “Humph, even the principal stands no chance in front of my Otou-san and Shisui-nii-san… I am telling you, my Otou-san will become Hokage!”

Naruto looked at the venue and spoke, “One day, I will also prove my strength just like them and become the Hokage! Everyone will recognize me!”

Neji looked around him in a daze, and spoke, “I will work harder so that I can also prove my strength… and perhaps become the next Hokage.”

Before now, Neji always thought that the branch members existed only to protect the main family. But his Sensei has time and time again proven that that’s not the case. Not only did Kuroto become the Principal of the Konoha Ninja Academy, but he was also nominated as one of the four candidates for the position of Godaime Hokage.

Seeing this, Neji realizes that he is more than just a member of the Hyuga Branch family and that he has all the right to dream… a bigger goal. Now… Neji wishes to become the Hokage and protect the entire village, especially the Hyuga Branch… so that everyone can learn what he has learned.

“Keep dreaming you two.” Spoke Sasuke with a mocking smile, and declared in a confident tone, “Although I am not very interested in becoming the Hokage… I will still become one for my clan… the two of you can take your turns after that.”

Hearing each other’s declaration of dreams, the three of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces. Undoubtedly, the goal of all three children at this moment is to become Konoha’s Hokage. Their reasons may be different, but their goals are the same.

Lounge

Listening to the burst of cheers from the stadium, Yui walked to and fro in the room, and spoke in a panicked voice, “Really… this is… such a big crowd has gathered… Oh, Kami-sama… I did not expect that so many people would come to watch this… Kuroto-kun… so many people have come to watch!”

While Yui paced around, Kuroto comfortably sat on the side. He was reading a book and did not seem to be affected by the crowd.

Finally, Yui couldn’t take it anymore and walked towards Kuroto, “Kuroto-kun… don’t get nervous… just do your best and enjoy… results don’t matter… it doesn’t matter whether you win or lose… just do your best… for me… you are the best!”

Seeing her stutter yet trying to give him a motivational speech, Kuroto chuckled, and nodded softly, “Got it.”

At this time, the door of the waiting room was knocked following which a man in a Chunin vest walked in, and spoke, “Hyuga Kuroto-sama… please get ready… the first match of the first round is about to start.”

“Understood.” nodded Kuroto and closed the book he was reading. Then he patted Yui as he said, “All right then, I will be going. Wish me luck.”

“All the best. Give it your all!”

Kuroto nodded with a smile, then walked towards the field.
