This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill - Chapter 469: Unexpected Honesty

Coming to such a decision, Jiraya also thought about it for a long time and felt that it was necessary, so he did it.

Since Aoba wanted to be the Hokage, he might as well fulfill his wish and stay by his side as the Hokage.

If his intuition was right, the other party really wanted to be the Hokage with other motives, then under his surveillance, everything would be exposed.

When the time came, he could even directly clean up the door!

Losing some face was better than regretting it.

But if he finally proved that he was thinking too much, and this was a teenager who regarded the Hokage as a dream, then the position of the Hokage would be his compensation.

As long as the other party had the ability to be the Hokage, then he could leave with a peace of mind.

In this way, he would not wrong innocent people, nor leave a time bomb in the village.

Jiraya was very comprehensive, but what he didn’t expect was that the person he suspected was actually more serious than he had imagined.

If he had noticed earlier, maybe he wouldn’t have made such a choice.

Looking thoughtfully at Jiraya, and then looking at Aoba, he suddenly felt that things had become more interesting.

“Then it’s decided. Shinomiya Aoba will be the 5th Hokage, but considering that the new Hokage is still young, Jiraya will be the support of the Hokage and help the two consultants and the two elders to deal with the affairs of the Hokage, until the 5th Hokage can stand alone.”.

Homura and Koharu were already unable to jump up, but their words ignited their hope.

This was because they were worried that the new Hokage would not do well, so they sent the authority of the Hokage to the higher-ups of Konoha!

If they could instigate Fugaku and Hiashi, they might be able to completely overthrow the Hokage.

What a ruthless move!

Even Aoba found that he seemed to have underestimated the name of the Land of Fire.

After Jiraya expressed that he didn’t want to be the Hokage or wanted the position of the Hokage, he could immediately come up with such a solution, making him unable to say a word of no.

After all, his age was hard to deal with. Considering that there was no other suitable candidate, he could only choose his situation. Jiraya would help him. The two consultants and the two elders would share the power in his hands and stabilize Konoha as quickly as possible.

Even if someone criticized his age, he couldn’t say anything for the sake of Jiraya.

What are you worried about?

Aoba estimated that if he wanted to give some orders, he might not even be able to get out of the Hokage’s office.

He was directly stuck at Jiraya, and then there were two elders waiting to find trouble with him.

What kind of Hokage was this?

It was just a decoration!

And the saying ‘until you can block one side’ was also very interesting. This was a pseudo-proposition.

What was the meaning of being able to block one side?

What was the standard of judgment?

If I don’t give him a chance, how can I stand in his way?

Interesting, really interesting!

Aoba did not raise any objections. It was as if he had tacitly agreed. However, his expression suddenly turned very cold.

“You want me to be the shadow of a puppet for a few years? It will depend on whether you have the ability!”

Without any objections from both sides, the name of the Land of Fire was quickly stamped on the appointment letter, and this matter was considered as a final verdict.

When they left, Aoba and Jiraya walked side by side, “What is this? Giving charity to my Hokage? And then let me be a puppet that only knows how to deal with documents?”

“Why would you think so? In fact, I think you are qualified to be the Hokage. But what I don’t understand is why you are so anxious? You are still so young, and you can wait for ten or twenty years.”

“Do you know? The feeling you give me now is that you want to sit in the position of the Hokage regardless of anything. Can you tell me why?”

Why?

Of course, it was released for the sake of the system.

Aoba was suddenly stunned on the spot. After a long time, his eyes revealed a deep exhaustion.

Perhaps the mission reward was indeed what he wanted, but the real reason why he was in such a hurry to act was not this.

Instead, he was afraid.

Yes, he was afraid.

He was very afraid that he would sink deeper and deeper.

Because he was a spy. Sooner or later, there would be a day when his identity would be exposed. At that time, he was afraid that he would be reluctant to part.

If he stayed in Konoha for another ten or twenty years, everything would be fine.

He was afraid that he would be in even more pain.

Therefore, it was the wisest choice to complete this undercover mission as soon as possible, while he was still able to leave.

Perhaps if he was a cold-blooded person, he would not have these troubles.

“So that’s why you suspect me?” Aoba sighed.

Jiraya, who had been quietly waiting at the side, said with uncertainty, “Maybe. I shouldn’t have doubted you, but my intuition tells me that you are not as simple as you usually show.”

“I believe you must have a reason to become the 5th Hokage, but it is unknown whether it is good or bad for Konoha.”

“So for the next period of time, I will keep an eye on you. If your selfish desire is too much to bear responsibility, then I will personally take back your title of Hokage.”

“To be honest, I hope that I am wrong. As long as you can prove this, I will definitely apologize to you sincerely.”

“Did anyone tell you that your intuition is very scary?” Aoba suddenly said.

“Are you willing to tell me the reason?” Jiraya was a bit surprised.

“You will know, but not now.”

“I bloom in the dark, just like the flowers in the dawn.”

“Time will prove everything. I hope you won’t regret your decision today.”

Aoba turned around and left, not giving Jiraya the chance to continue asking.

As for what he just said, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t understand it now, but sooner or later he would know the meaning of these words.

But by then, everything would be different.

A dragon slayer warrior would eventually transform into a dragon, and who knew if the person who woke up the Princess was a dragon or a warrior?

Jiraya frowned as he thought about what Aoba said to him at the end. He felt like he was reminding him of something, but he couldn’t understand it.

Maybe I should take some time to go back to Mount Myoboku and ask the Great Toad Immortal. I don’t know why, but after hearing these words, the uneasiness in my heart became stronger.

“Aoba, what are you going to do?”
