Chapter 287: Reason

Kakashi released a sigh and stood up.

"Sandaime-sama, I'm sorry, but I can't accept this position for the time being."

Everyone was shocked when these words came out!

No one expected that Kakashi would refuse Hokage's position.

It should be known that at least half of the people present are eyeing this position, but they are not strong enough so they can only give up.

Right now, this opportunity is right in front of Kakashi, but Kakashi actually refuses.

The people present can't really understand.

Hearing this, Sandaime Hokage also frowned. He looks at Kakashi, waiting for Kakashi's reason.

Hearing Kakashi's rejection, Utatane Koharu who was on the side can't help but feeling a little angry and said: "Kakashi, Hokage's position is a glorious position. You should do it if you have the ability, not shirk from it."

Homura Mitokado also said: "Yes, Kakashi, your teacher and your father have made a huge contribution to Konoha, and you have already seen their contribution to Konoha over the years. Why did you refuse this position?"

Danzo who was on the side is silent, and he didn't seem to want to say anything.

Kakashi said: "It's not like I don't want to contribute to Konoha, but I am not the best person to be the Godaime Hokage."

Sandaime Hokage sighed and said: "Kakashi, give us your reasons."

"Yes, Sandaime-sama. I assume this war has showed everyone Konoha's shortcomings. Since Tsunade-sama left Konoha, the village's medical system has been progressing slowly and even stagnating. Especially in the recent years. Peace has greatly reduced the number of medical Shinobi. There were many people injured in this war, but a large part of them did not receive timely treatment."

Everyone nodded when they heard Kakashi's words. They know that indeed many Konoha's Shinobi could not get effective treatment after being injured.

Kakashi then continued: "The current director of Konoha Hospital is Nohara Shinnosuke, although his Medical Ninjutsu is superb, he is still not as good as Tsunade-sama."

Sandaime Hokage nodded and said: "Kakashi, do you mean to let Tsunade come back and serve as the Godaime Hokage?"

"Yes, we need a person with superb Medical Ninjutsu to rebuild Konoha."

"Then we just need to get Tsunade to come back. It is not necessary to make Tsunade the Godaime Hokage," said Utatane Koharu.

"Koharu is right, Kakashi. What you said is just the reason we need to call Tsunade back. It's not the reason for your refusal." Sandaime Hokage said.

Kakashi smiled and said: "Sandaime-sama, you should know about Tsunade-sama's temper. Are you going to tell her to come back just to work at Konoha Hospital?"

"That..."

Sandaime Hokage was stunned for a while.

Kakashi is right. With Tsunade's temper, she might not even be willing to come back to become Hokage. So it is obviously unrealistic to make her come back to become the director of Konoha Hospital.

"Sandaime-sama, I am still young, and there are still many things I need to learn, so Tsunade-sama is the most suitable candidate at this time. Whether it was her status or her strength, it is all enough for her to become the Godaime Hokage."

After Kakashi finished speaking, the Jōnin present could not help but nod.

Sandaime Hokage sighed. He knew that what Kakashi has just said is just his excuses, but he have to say that Kakashi's words are indeed very reasonable.

"Okay, the matter of the Godaime Hokage will be put aside for the time being. I will call Tsunade back, and then we will discuss it again after she's back."

Sandaime Hokage finished the meeting and set aside the matter for the time being.

On the Hokage Tower Roof, Sandaime Hokage wearing his Hokage robe is looking at Konoha that just experiencing the war.

Kakashi is standing Sandaime Hokage at this moment.

"Kakashi, tell me your reason, you should know that I have always trained you as Hokage."

The tone in Sandaime Hokage's voice is very flat, but Kakashi knows that Sandaime Hokage is still angry.

After all, Kakashi just rejected Sandaime Hokage's arrangement in front of everyone. It can be said that it was an act of disrespect.

Even if Sandaime Hokage has a good temper, he is still feeling a little angry right now.

"Thank you for your care, Sandaime-sama, but I can't take the Hokage's position right now. As for the reason, it is what I just said at the meeting."

Sandaime Hokage turned around and his eyes stared at Kakashi closely. "Those reasons are not enough. I believe that with your ability, you can solve all the problems you just said if you are the Hokage."

Kakashi smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that Sandaime Hokage is really confident in him.

After thinking for a moment, Kakashi then said: "Sandaime-sama, Akatsuki Organization where Itachi is now gradually showing their powers. In the near future, they may do something big. I have a feeling that these people will inevitably set off the waves in the Shinobi World. So I will need to continue investigate these people. At that time, it is inevitable for me to leave Konoha to investigate. But if I became the Hokage, it is impossible for me to leave the village. This is my concern."

Sandaime Hokage frowned: "Is that Akatsuki Organization that powerful?"

"Sandaime-sama, these people shouldn't be underestimated. Jiraiya-sama is also investigating them."

"Jiraiya?" Sandaime Hokage was stunned.

"Yes, it's me, the Legendary Sage, Jiraiya-sama."

With a heroic laugh, Jiraiya fell from the sky and landed in front of the two.

"Jiraiya, you… You are obviously in Konoha right now, so why did you not come to the Jōnin meeting." Sandaime Hokage said.

"Hahaha, Old Man, I am too lazy to participate in such a troublesome thing. Kakashi is right, this Akatsuki Organization does hide a very terrifying Strength. Right now, I still have not yet figured out their details."

Hearing this, Sandaime Hokage's expression became a little bit dignified. Sandaime Hokage knew Jiraiya very well. If even Jiraiya can't figure them out clearly, this organization is indeed very unusual.

After a long silence, Sandaime Hokage said: "Okay, I understand. Kakashi, I will give you a few more years. For now, I will call Tsunade back to become the Godaime Hokage."

"Thank you Sandaime-sama," Kakashi said.

"Oh? You want Tsunade to come back to become the Godaime Hokage? It's really interesting." Jiraiya said, touching his chin.

Kakashi smiled and said: "Jiraiya-sama, I have to ask you on this matter."

"Ask me?"

"Yeah. Tsunade-sama's whereabouts is uncertain, and Konoha didn't have any information about it. I believe that if there is one person in this world who can find Tsunade-sama, then it must be Jiraiya-sama."

"Haha, so it's like that. Don't worry, I will take this mission, but I have to take Naruto with me."

"This..." Kakashi looked at Sandaime Hokage.

After all, if a Jinchūriki want to travel out of the village, they need Hokage's consent.

"Okay, but you have to protect Naruto." Sandaime Hokage said.

"Don't worry, with the Legendary Toad Sage, Jiraiya. There would be no problem."
