"I have no interest in becoming Hokage."
Orochimaru shook his head.
"Sigh, Orochimaru, you have such a short-sighted view."
Kawasaki said, shaking his head.
"The Country of Fields is only so big, and its resources are not abundant. The rare materials that are difficult for you to obtain are not difficult for the Hokage."
"Jiraiya only managed to get the materials once. What if you were the Hokage?"
Upon hearing this, Orochimaru's mind stirred. Orochimaru was not stupid; he was simply so engrossed in scientific research that he often neglected these matters.
If I were to become the Fifth Hokage, then the fertile Land of Fire...
Many secret texts and medicines of various ninja clans can be found in Konoha Village.
After all, the land of fields is less than one-tenth the size of the land of fire.
In terms of both people's livelihood and military, it lags far behind the Land of Fire.
"What are your plans?"
Orochimaru was a very practical person; once he had an idea, he acted on it and immediately asked Kawasaki about his plans.
"Konoha is now suffering from a shortage of talent, and there are not many people who can succeed as Hokage."
"Besides you, only Tsunade and Jiraiya are still considered part of the Hokage lineage. If the Third Hokage doesn't want power to fall into other hands, he won't consider anyone else."

After years of cultivation by the third generation, the Sarutobi clan possessed a large number of ninjas, making their ninja clan power immense.
But top-tier combatants? Sorry, there wasn't a single one. Asuma, on whom he had placed high hopes, was rebellious and unfit for any important task.
Other potential successors to the Hokage position are either dead, have fled, or have defected.
Therefore, the nearly seventy-year-old man still sits in the position of Hokage.
At this moment, Kawasaki had not taken Kakashi into account, as Kakashi was still in his growth stage and the time was not yet right.
"Jiraiya would never want to be Hokage."
Orochimaru knew Jiraiya's personality inside and out.
Kawasaki chuckled: "Even if he wanted to, it would be impossible."
Orochimaru already knew that Kawasaki had ruined Jiraiya's reputation, and couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.
"In that case, only Tsunade (Qian, Li, Zhao) is left."
Kawasaki thought for a moment and asked, "First of all, how did Nawaki and Dan die back then?"
Orochimaru understood the implied meaning from the music, and a sarcastic smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Nawaki was the sole heir of the Senju clan. Who would benefit the most from his death? How could someone of such status die in an accident?"
Kawasaki nodded; Orochimaru's thoughts coincided with his own. As for Kato Dan…
"His spiritualization technique was best suited for investigation, but he suddenly died shortly after starting his investigation."
Kawasaki clicked his tongue, realizing that those in the know ultimately had a deeper understanding.
Back then, Kato Dan's Spirit Transformation Technique made great contributions to Konoha.
The greatest weakness of the Spirit Transformation Technique lies in the fact that the physical body is defenseless during the Spirit Transformation process.
What should have been the most secretive operation was instead exposed.
He was attacked while performing a spirit transformation technique and died from his injuries.
Orochimaru's tongue curled slightly:
"His whereabouts back then were known only to a few of us."
Besides, only the Third Hokage and Danzo knew about it.
Is a third generation possible?
Kawasaki asked.
Orochimaru nodded:
"He may have been the mastermind, or he may have known about it afterward and helped cover it up."
"Tsunade also noticed, and because of this, Zhongzhuan Qun left the village. 29119"
Although there is no direct evidence to prove that the third generation was the mastermind.
But the ultimate beneficiaries are undoubtedly the third generation.
Moreover, the Third Hokage's repeated indulgence of Danzo led to a significant loss of talent from Konoha.
A winning hand, played terribly.
"Is Tsunade interested in the Hokage position?"
Kawasaki's impression of Tsunade is only based on memory; it would be best to ask Tsunade's teammate Orochimaru about this.
Orochimaru chuckled:
"Tsunade is a princess of the Senju clan and the granddaughter of the First Hokage. She has had everything since she was a child and has no interest in becoming Hokage."
"Of course, if Konoha declines, she might go back to be Hokage."
It must be admitted that Orochimaru also had a deep understanding of Tsunade.
In the original timeline, Tsunade returned for this very reason and became Hokage.
Kawasaki's eyelids drooped slightly: "If becoming Hokage makes Konoha stronger, Princess Tsunade probably won't compete with you anymore."
Chapter 75 Eternal Kaleidoscope! Kawasaki's Eye Technique! Kusanagi Sword! Yamata no Orochi Technique!
The Hidden Sound Village of today is no longer the small village it was in the past.
Although the territory of the Land of Fields remained unchanged, its economic development was the fastest.
In terms of strength, the more than one hundred Uchiha became the backbone of Otogakure during its most difficult time.
Later, the number of missions surged, attracting many outside ninjas to join.
They also gained influence in the ninja world.
However, the Sound Village has never had a proper ceremony; there is a leader in the village, but no one in sight.
If the land of fields develops further, perhaps a ceremony can be held.
What if the Daimyo of the Land of Fields and the new Otokage both support Orochimaru becoming Hokage?
Orochimaru's chances are quite good.
Orochimaru of the Sound Village remained behind the scenes, while the real person in charge was Kabuto Yakushi, even though Kabuto was only in his early twenties.
However, Kabuto deserves much credit for the transformation of Otogakure from a barren wasteland to its current state.
It has to be said that Kabuto is a true genius with extraordinary abilities.
Ever since Orochimaru became a tech geek.
Dou often acts as the decision-maker on the front lines, handling all matters, big and small, in the village with remarkable efficiency.
People are starting to call Dou "Lord Yin Ying" now, but since there hasn't been a ceremony, it doesn't count yet.
Below are the three elders of the Uchiha clan, with Itachi and Shisui being the strongest fighters.
Further down are the talents recruited by the Uchiha clan and Orochimaru.
When so many Uchiha clans first entered Otogakure, many villages were skeptical, thinking the Uchiha were planning to seize power.
As a result, everyone got along peacefully. The Uchiha clan did their missions diligently and even worked with the Daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields to promote the food industry.
It's said that the hot-tempered Uchiha are actually just a bit cold, and you can get along with them normally, which is quite surprising.
If Kabuto were to officially become the Sound Village's Shadow, Orochimaru could distance himself from the situation and pretend he was merely a collaborator with the Sound Village.
Orochimaru had a good relationship with the Uchiha who had left, and he also had the support of the Land of Rice Fields and the Sound Village. All the external assistance was in place.
All he needs to do is return to Konoha and achieve some political success, and his position as Fifth Hokage will be secure.
As for what kind of political achievements to make, there's plenty of room for manipulation.
Kawasaki had wanted to find Tsunade before, because Konoha Village's comprehensive medical system was all created by Tsunade.
If possible, Kawasaki also hopes that Tsunade can build a medical team for the Uchiha clan.
Now I have another reason to go see her.
What? Tsunade disagrees?
The Uchiha clan has nothing but money right now; they haven't even touched their development fund yet.
