Chapter 5 - 5 - Sandaime reinstated

Hiruzen Sarutobi's view:

Jounin meeting:

All jōnins are discussing what to do ahead. 

Homura: "We repelled the Nine Tails, But the sacrifice was much too great."

Koharu: "This is no time to lament. The Hokage's sear is empty. We must decide on someone quickly."

Shikaku: "Perhaps someone from the age group below Minato?"

Koharu: "We have nurtured fine jonin, but they all lack the experience to rule over a village."

Shikaku: "Is there anyone else?"

Danzo: "Well..."

I have already decided to take mentle again to honor Minato and Kushina. Afterall this is my village, which is entrusted to me by my teachers. 

Homura: "Oh you will do it huh."

Koharu: "If you are willing..."

Danzo: "You stepped down once... Are you up to the task? Truth be told, even though you went after the Nine Tails, you failed to save the Fourth Hokage..."

Homura: "That is uncalled for."

Koharu: "And where were you at that time, Danzo?"

I started laughing seeing Danzo's face, quite heart full at that, Its been four days since i laughed. Even if he is against me, if i have my friends with me against world, i can take on anyone.

Hiruzen: "Just indulge this old man. Let me fill in as Hokage until we can groom the next one."

We have one but Nara's will never take one. He doesn't know in future his thinking will go wrong.

Daimyo's Meeting: 

Currently me, Homuro, Koharu, Anbu commander and Shikaku from Konoha side and, Daimyo and his retainers and officials are siting in meeting.

Daimyo: "I see... So you will be filling the post again, Sandaime! You have the knowledge and experience already... I am relieved."

Daimyo is keep looking at us for quite some time and quite funnily at that. We couldn't understand.

Daimyo: "Is that man not here today? The fierce-looking one with that scary eye..."

Hiruzen: "Do you mean Danzo?"

Daimyo: "Oh yes, he's the one."

If i said to him, he will kill Daimyo, if its required to be Hokage, that he will do that also.

Hiruzen: "He had an urgent matter to attend to, so he is absent today."

Daimyo: "Oh...I see. I don't feel very comfortable around him."

I agree with him.
