Chapter 165 - Chapter 165: Hokage and the long-lost...

Seeing this, Yuuki once again took charge and spoke.

"Since that's the case, this is an emergency announcement: all Konoha clan heads and Jonin among the civilian Ninja are to gather at the Hokage Building within half an hour for the official Hokage election!"

After the announcement, Yuuki walked directly to the conference room in the Hokage Building.

In less than half an hour, only about fifteen minutes, all the spokesmen of Konoha's clans and the civilian Jonin had arrived in the conference room.

This included Might Guy, who was training on the outskirts of Konoha.

At this moment, Yuuki sat directly in the main seat, showing no deference to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

When the time was almost up, Gengetsu came to Yuuki's side and whispered a few words.

Yuuki clapped his hands.

"Alright, time's up. Any Jonin who haven't arrived are considered to have relinquished their power and agreed to the election results!"

"To keep things simple, I, Uchiha Tomoki, a Konoha Jonin, nominate myself as a candidate for the Fifth Hokage. Does anyone else wish to participate?"

Silence filled the room.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi still wanted to struggle.

"I, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage of Konoha, recommend Jonin Jiraiya as a candidate for the Fifth Generation!"

After waiting for nearly a minute, no one else spoke.

"Very well then, it's just me and Jiraiya as candidates. Now, we move on to the Jonin confidence vote!"

Looking at the ballot box that had already been prepared, Yuuki did not opt for the usual anonymous voting method.

He spoke directly.

"I, Uchiha Tomoki, representing all Uchiha Jonin, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

This action clearly caused the entire conference room to pause.

"I, Hyuga Hiashi, representing all Jonin of the Hyuga Clan, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

"I, Aburame Shibi, representing all Jonin of the Aburame Clan, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

"I, Inuzuka…"

"I, Yamanaka…"

"I, Jiraiya, a Konoha Jonin, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

"I, Shirakumo Sokan, a Konoha Jonin, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

"I, Kakashi Hatake, a Konoha Jonin, agree that Konoha Jonin Uchiha Tomoki should become the Fifth Hokage!"

The completely one-sided situation did not surprise Yuuki.

And Jiraiya's support for Yuuki further prompted the civilian Ninja, who had been somewhat hesitant to openly express their opinions, to openly support Yuuki.

After a series of speeches, Hiruzen Sarutobi still remained silent.

Powerless to change anything, Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained his silence, and after everyone in the conference room had spoken, he finally spoke.

"The Sarutobi Clan abstains!"

Yuuki, with a smile, scanned everyone in the conference room, including Hiruzen Sarutobi!

"Then, from now on, I am Konoha's Fifth Hokage!"

There was no bloodshed.

No fighting.

And no surprises.

It was done honorably!

Openly and fairly!

Everything unfolded as if by natural progression!

Yuuki became Konoha's Hokage.

To share this joy, Yuuki immediately issued his first order.

"For the next three days, all Konoha departments, except for essential personnel, are on holiday, factories are shut down, schools are closed. The Hokage Inauguration Ceremony will take place three days from now!"

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

"Then, everyone, go spread this good news!"

Yuuki then ignored the crowd and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Third Hokage, it's time for the handover!"

With that, Yuuki left the conference room directly and walked towards the Hokage Office, which he hadn't visited in three years.

He didn't care if Hiruzen Sarutobi followed him or not.

Three in the afternoon.

Finally, after completing the handover with Hiruzen Sarutobi, Yuuki sat in the Hokage Office.

The defense personnel of the Hokage Building had also all been replaced by Uchiha Ninja.

At this moment, Yuuki finally had time to attend to a crucial matter.

That's right, the Golden Finger finally stirred again!

The Golden Finger, with its extremely low sense of presence, finally let out its unwilling roar!

Golden Finger: Do you think you got to where you are today through your own efforts? No! It was all thanks to me!

As early as in the conference room, when Yuuki's votes were far ahead, the Golden Finger had issued a prompt.

"Achieved Hokage with an almost perfect evaluation, gaining one Grand Prize Draw!"

This time, the Golden Finger was no longer rigidly stating "condition met, gained one Grand Prize Draw."

To be honest, if the Golden Finger hadn't popped up on its own, Yuuki would have almost forgotten he even had such a thing as a Golden Finger!

After all, how I got to where I am today was almost entirely due to my own efforts. The Golden Finger, to be frank, wasn't of much use!

I hope I can draw something good this time!

His consciousness sank into his mind.

But the following scene shocked Yuuki.

It wasn't because of the size of the Grand Prize Draw wheel; he had seen it three times already and was used to it.

Rather, after his consciousness sank into his mind, he received a prompt.

"Highest achievement in the Achievement section has been met. After claiming this reward, the Achievement section will no longer issue missions. For more missions, please go to other sections of the System!"

System?

Missions?

This is the first time I've known I had a System!

Then Yuuki looked at the Grand Prize Draw wheel and was stunned again.

The wheel, originally larger than a planet, was still very large, but its appearance…

It was tattered and broken; describing it as full of holes would be an understatement!

There wasn't a single good spot.

Yuuki controlled his consciousness and spun it for a long time.

Hmm~ Finally found a good spot.

Looking closely, wasn't it 'Fire Man'?

After spinning for a long time again, he found another unbroken spot. Oh, Ghost Rider!

Is the next good spot going to be Thunderbolt Fire?

So, this Grand Prize Draw wheel only has a few good spots? It was just putting on a show for me before!

However, Yuuki couldn't understand why the Golden Finger had laid its cards on the table this time and stopped pretending!

He carefully recalled the clearly different prompts and the information he had received this time.

Could it be that my Golden Finger really is a System?

I cleared the Achievement section, achieved the highest achievement with a high evaluation, and my authority increased?

Did the increase in authority allow me to see the true situation?

Sigh, I can't figure it out, so I won't think about it!

The draw is still more important.

I hope this wheel doesn't just have three good spots!

As Yuuki's consciousness moved, the broken wheel spun rapidly.

Yuuki also began to pray in his heart.

No longer like the previous three times, craving those heaven-defying templates, after all, after spinning for so long just now, almost all the powerful templates were broken.

Yuuki prayed, "Please, at least four spots are good!"

After silently reciting every god he could think of, Yuuki's consciousness moved again, and the broken wheel instantly stopped.

And when Yuuki saw the image that appeared, he frowned.

It wasn't a duplicate, which should have made him happy.

But this template… it was truly hard to describe. Not only was it a villain, but it was also so ugly!

It completely clashed with my aesthetic!
