Kaito: So, are you two going to fight?
Seeing that White Fang had stopped him and didn't want him to ask further, Minato became more suspicious. White Fang was trying to deceive him, likely intending to get him involved again.
"Lord White Fang, you weren't deceiving me just now, were you? The administrator never said I was to succeed Hokage again, did he?"
Upon hearing Minato's words, White Fang's expression froze for a moment, before he forced a laugh.
"How could that be, Minato? You don't trust me? Am I really that kind of person?"
Though White Fang's words were defensive, Minato noticed the unease in his eyes. Instead of pressing him further, Minato decided to go straight to the group chat and ask Kaito directly.
[Namikaze Minato]: The administrator, Senior White Fang said, do you want me to succeed Hokage again? @Konoha Salted Fish
[Konoha Salted Fish]: Huh? I did say that.
[Konoha's White Fang]: See? Minato, I told you I wasn't fooling you!
[Konoha Salted Fish]: ? ? ? Fooling? What do you mean by that?
[Konoha's White Fang]: It's nothing, nothing at all. Master Administrator, you've worked hard, you should rest now!
[Konoha Salted Fish]: Fortunately, I'm not too tired and don't need to rest. What did Minato mean by 'flickering'?
[Namikaze Minato]: Well, you see, Lord White Fang doesn't want to be Hokage anymore, but he couldn't find anyone else, so he came to me saying that you want me to take the seat again!
[Konoha Salted Fish]: I didn't say that. I simply suggested that White Fang discuss it with you, but I didn't force you to take the throne again.
[Konoha's White Fang]: ...
[Third Tsuchikage. Onoki]: Oh, I'm eating popcorn!
[Fifth Mizukage. Terumi Mei]: Good grief, you Konoha people are all so odd. Some are bothering their disciples and Konoha heroes just to stay in power for a little while longer.
[Fifth Mizukage. Terumi Mei]: And now two more people don't want to be the Hokage? That's too weird!
[Uchiha Madara]: Hmph! What's so strange about that? I never wanted to be Hokage in the first place.
[Senju Tobirama]: Oh, really? You didn't want to? If you didn't, why'd you try to fight my brother for the position?
[Uchiha Madara]: You talk too much. If I had been in charge, Hashirama would have been too naive to stand a chance against me!
[Senju Hashirama]: Actually, Madara, that does make sense.
[Senju Tobirama]: Makes sense, huh? Isn't it the same one who didn't get the position and ran out of Konoha in a huff?
[Uchiha Madara]: That's because I disagreed with you fools, not because I didn't become Hokage!
[Senju Tobirama]: Heh...
[Konoha Salted Fish]: Alright, stop arguing, you two. Who's actually fit to be Hokage?
[Uchiha Izuna]: Why are we even choosing Hokage again? What happened to Sarutobi Hiruzen?
[Konoha Salted Fish]: He's dead. After making so many mistakes, could he have survived?
[Senju Tobirama]: The monkey is dead? Oh well, that's that... alas...
[Konoha Salted Fish]: No time for sighs! Just tell me your opinions on who would be suitable!
[Senju Tobirama]: I think anyone could do it.
[Konoha Salted Fish]: You're just rambling... What do you think, Big Brother? @Senju Hashirama
Senju Hashirama: I think the second brother is right!
Konoha Salted Fish: What am I...
Senju Tobirama: Don't call me the second brother!
Uchiha Izuna: Since Hashirama and Tobirama can't decide, should the administrator make a choice?
Konoha Salted Fish: My choice? Well, how about this... you two fight, and whoever loses becomes Hokage!
Konoha's White Fang (Sakumo Hatake): ???
Namikaze Minato: ???
Konoha People: .....
Konoha Salted Fish: Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue! I meant, whoever wins becomes Hokage!
Konoha's White Fang: Well, in that case, we'll follow the administrator's suggestion and have a match!
Namikaze Minato: I agree with the administrator's proposal.
After hearing the proposal, both Hashirama and Tobirama nodded, but in their minds, they both thought the same thing: Let's take it easy on each other!
Konoha Salted Fish: Alright, since everyone agrees, we'll set the match for tomorrow morning. Whoever wins will become Hokage, no more arguing.
Fifth Mizukage, Terumi Mei: Don't forget to start the live stream, administrator.
Fourth Raikage, A: Are we watching the live stream again?
Fourth Kazekage, Rasa: Understood! I'll go buy some snacks!
Third Tsuchikage, Onoki: You don't work? Watching live streams all day?
Fourth Kazekage, Rasa: I have a secretary!
Fifth Mizukage, Terumi Mei: I have a secretary!
Fourth Raikage, A: I have a secretary!
Third Tsuchikage, Onoki: Hah, I can't keep up with you guys in the "Gou" department!
Konoha Salted Fish: Alright, it's all set! Live stream tomorrow!
After resolving the Hokage issue, Kaito left the group chat, ready to catch up on things.
