“Heh~ I knew the village would give in!”

“We finally have a chance now!”

“That’s right… there are two candidates from the Uchiha Clan, while currently there is only a single candidate from the Hokage faction… Currently, we are in the lead, we will definitely win this time!”

“Uchiha will finally have a Hokage… we have waited for so long to see this day!”

After Fugaku announced the result of the Council meeting, the entire Uchiha Clan was enveloped in a joyous atmosphere. Everybody in the Uchiha Clan now believes that the position of Godaime Hokage will definitely belong to the Uchiha Clan.

Looking at the elated and happy expressions of the Uchiha Clansmen clansmen, Fugaku smiled lightly.

The council meeting went exactly as he wanted it to go, and he is very satisfied with the results.

‘There is no doubt about it, they are really afraid of offending us.’

In the previous Council Meeting, Fugaku saw through the façade of the Hokage faction and realized their weakness. After all, Shisui executed Mizuki in the presence of all the high-level personnel in the village, without anyone’s permission, yet he was not reprimanded, and not even Sarutobi Hiruzen dared to rebuke Shisui for his actions.

Precisely why, Fugaku dared to do what he did in this Council Meeting.

And everything went according to his plan. Not only two candidates were selected for the election from the Uchiha Clan, but the aspect of testing the strength of the candidates was also acknowledged.

“All the conditions are in our favor.” Muttered with a smile as he looked at all his clansmen.

Fugaku noted Shisui standing at the corner of the hall with a silent expression. After giving it a thought, he called Shisui, and spoke, “Shisui… although Hiruzen-sama has only nominated Hatake Kakashi… I have a feeling that at least one or two more candidates will be selected by them. Perhaps Tsunade-hime… or maybe Jiraiya-sama… if you face them, you must not restrain yourself.”

“I understand.” Nodded Shisui.

Fugaku held Shisui’s shoulder, and said, “I gave you my word that we will fight for the Hokage’s position fair and square and that’s what I am doing, so, I want you to make sure that you complete your words too. Do not forget, first and foremost you are an Uchiha.”

Shisui nodded, “Rest assured Fugaku-sama.”

Personally, Shisui has no interest in becoming the Hokage. But if it’s for the clan, he doesn’t mind. Of course, the approach must be fair and square.

As long as they don’t try to cause disturbance and Coup d’état, he will support the clan in their endeavours.

Fugaku nodded with a satisfied expression.

Somewhere in the Forest of Death

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Two figures shuttled through the Forest of Death as the sound of metal collision rang from time to time.

The two figures were none other than the Sandaime Hokage and Hatake Kakashi engaged in a battle.

Given his old age, the speed and strength displayed by Sarutobi Hiruzen were obviously not too good, but his extraordinary skills and rich experience were more than enough to cause a lot of trouble for Kakashi who was not using Flying Raijin in this battle.

BOOM!

As the roar of the explosion sounded, the figure of Sandaime Hokage was enveloped in a cloud of smoke.

Seeing this, Kakashi wasted no time and used a quick Body-Flicker and appeared beside him, ready to end the battle.

But just as Kakashi placed his Kunai on Hiruzen’s throat, the figure of Hiruzen turned into mud and trapped Kakashi.

‘When did he use this Jutsu?’ Kakashi couldn’t help but think in shock.

It did not do him any good when he heard the sound of something approaching him from behind. He wanted to retreat, however, his legs were trapped by the mud.

“Damn it!” he muttered in frustration, as he channelled Chakra into his Kunai and disappeared.

Boom!

Just as Kakashi disappeared, Hiruzen’s Adamantine Staff collided with the Mud Clone.

Appearing on a distant tree, Kakashi apologized, “It’s my loss… I am sorry to have to disappoint you Hokage-sama.”

Hiruzen retracted the Adamantine Staff, then spoke in a comforting tone, “Your performance is already very good. It’s just that we have restricted you to not using Flying-Raijin and Eight Gates, so it’s bound to get difficult for you. In my opinion, you are performing extremely well. Keep up this rhythm and you’ll be able to defeat Fugaku.”

Kakashi nodded as he leaned his back on the tree and sighed.

Ever since he was elected to be the Hokage candidate, Kakashi has upped his training. Aside from his regular training.

Not only this, but Kakashi is also testing out the results of his training against Hiruzen, Tsunade-hime, Jiraiya, and Guy in regular mock battles and improving his tactics.

Sandaime observed Kakashi for a while, and asked, “How far have you come along on Eight Inner Gates?”

After recovering his breath, Kakashi replied, “I can open up to the fourth gate without much trouble… the fifth gate is still not perfected.”

“I see.” Muttered Hiruzen with a thoughtful expression. After a pause, he continued, “Uchiha Fugaku was renowned as the ‘Wicked-Eye’, he has the skills and experience to match that title. In Genjutsu, he is perhaps second only to Shisui. In my opinion, Fugaku’s strength is undoubtedly that of a Kage, and when combined with his Sharingan, he will be tough.

The only good thing is that he doesn’t have the Mangekyou Sharingan, therefore, I believe that you will be able to defeat him with the help of Flying Raijin.”

Kakashi nodded. He wasn’t too worried about the battle with Uchiha Patriarch.

Hiruzen continued, “But Uchiha Shisui… that kid’s strength is on another level… Not only does Shisui have Mangekyou Sharingan, his unique Boby-Flicker Jutsu, and unmatched Genjutsu skills, but he has also mastered Senjutsu… defeating him will be highly challenging. You will have to use all your skills and some more if you wish to defeat him.”

“I know.” Nodded Kakashi, fully agreeing with Hiruzen.

At this time, Hiruzen’s gaze landed on Kakashi’s blindfold and he sighed faintly.

The lack of an eye is very disadvantageous for Kakashi and a flaw that no doubt Fugaku and Shisui will be able to exploit.

While Hiruzen was thinking about what they could do about the lack of an eye, suddenly Kakashi asked, “Hokage-sama… what about the other candidates? Was someone else chosen?”

Hiruzen sighed and shook his head, “Both Jiraiya and Tsunade have refused to participate, Asuma is not strong enough… the Patriarch of other clans doesn’t want to come forward, and even the main family of the Hyuga Clan is not showing any interest. It seems you are going to be the only candidate.”

“Is that so?” Kakashi groaned, and after a while of thinking, he said, “Hokage-sama… I have someone in mind who can be a good candidate… and he will also be a very good solution to Shisui.”

Hiruzen quirked his eyebrow, “You mean him?”

Kakashi nodded, “Yes, let him participate in the election, he will be able to restrain Shisui.”
