In Konoha Village,
Danzo and Konoha's villagers were shifting blame onto each other, and no one wanted to fully admit their own fault.
Their behavior had become a joke in the eyes of other reasonable people.
Tuechi watched the group with amusement, shaking his head helplessly.
"Actually, if everyone treated Naruto with a normal heart, they would see that he is a particularly good child, and so many problems wouldn't have occurred."
"I hope this will end peacefully and the village won't descend into chaos. Otherwise, my identity as a member of the Ōtsutsuki clan will be difficult to conceal."
At this time,
Kakashi walked up to Minato and asked nervously, "Teacher, how are you going to resolve this?"
This question stopped Minato,
Even though he deeply resented this group of people, he had sacrificed his life to protect them. Killing them all would be too cruel.
However, he would never allow such people to continue living and residing in Konoha Village.
He conceived a plan:Expulsion!
Those who shirked responsibility were not worthy of living in Konoha Village!
Minato said to Kakashi, "I want you to become the Fifth Hokage! Then, drive out the villagers who can't distinguish right from wrong from Konoha."
Kakashi was immediately surprised and stammered, "But Lord Third Hokage is currently in power and Lady Tsunade is Fifth Hokage.She left the village in care of Lord Third to chase Lord Jiraiya."
"Then be Sixth!"
"Lord Third should step down and let the virtuous take over," Minato said flatly.
"As for Lady Tsunade, we will inform of this when she will come to Konoha. I bet she would be relieved that she is not Hokage and go to gambling den to gamble."
Regarding Sarutobi Hiruzen,
Minato had once respected and trusted him. Even after becoming the Fourth Hokage, he still granted Sarutobi significant authority so he could oversee political affairs.
But even someone he trusted so much had failed him.
Now,
He was no longer a fledgling that could be manipulated, but he wouldn't choose to interfere too much in Konoha Village.
He simply wanted to force Sarutobi Hiruzen to abdicate and pass on the Hokage position. He couldn't allow him to remain in power and hinder Konoha Village's development.
"I understand, Lord Minato!" Kakashi nodded firmly.
Seeing that Kakashi agreed,
Namikaze Minato once again unleashed a massive burst of chakra, and everyone present closed their mouths in shock.
"As for Konoha Village's mistreatment of my wife and child, I don't need to pursue it, but I have one condition!!"
Everyone listened intently,
They strained their ears to hear.
"I hope Konoha Village will be able to change its ways and not remain the discriminatory and prejudiced village it used to be."
"I hope everyone can acknowledge each other, understand each other, and stop slandering others."
"If everyone can do this, Minato will definitely not harm anyone!"
Everyone at the scene listened,
This was a good thing. If the village could be reformed, it would benefit everyone.
There would be no more bullying of Naruto and despising him in the village.
Nor would there be similar incidents of looking down on Might Duy for being a 'Eternal Genin.'
There would be no more using gossip to condemn Kakashi's father because of a failed mission.
The civilians felt it didn't matter; this kind of change could only be positive.
But the major families of Konoha were frightened and alarmed.
They understood,
Konoha Village might be facing a major upheaval.
Although they had large families and deep roots in Konoha Village, they were also worried, fearing being targeted by Minato.
However, there was one family representative who seemed like a breath of fresh air, full of optimism.
This person was Hyuga Hiashi.
He not only didn't dislike Minato's words but was actually a little pleased.
As Naruto's future in-laws, the Hyuga clan would naturally not be affected at all, and it was even possible they might gain some advantage from this reshuffle.
As for Sarutobi Hiruzen, he sighed. He knew his time as Hokage was over.
In fact, he had been mentally prepared for a long time, but when it came to abdicating, he still found it difficult to let go.
But he still spoke reasonably:
"I support Lord Fourth Hokage's suggestion. The village needs development, and development needs to be driven by young people."
"Just like when I passed the position of Hokage to the young Minato."
"Now, I announce my abdication. It is up to every Jounin shinobi to choose the young ninja to be the next Hokage of Konoha Village!"
Under normal circumstances, he would have wanted Asuma to achieve more and contribute more to Konoha before passing the position to him.
But now,
That was clearly no longer feasible.
Hearing that the Hokage was to be recommended, all the ninjas present began to consider who would be suitable.
But among Konoha's younger generation, there were only a few truly capable ninjas:
Might Guy, Kakashi, Asuma, etc.
In terms of strength, everyone would undoubtedly recommend Might Guy, because his Eight Inner Gates were truly extraordinary.
But this person was too "youthful" and not intelligent enough. Most importantly, he was still blind to politics.
If he were Hokage,
Imagine calling Fourth Raikage Big Black Guy, Ōnoki Bignose, Gaara Sandy , and Terumi Mei Oldhag.
Wouldn't the four villages have united to destroy Konoha?
As for Asuma,
Actually, everyone had considered him before.
But given his current sensitive position and his strength being the weakest of the three, basically no one voted for him.
So,
Unsurprisingly, Kakashi became the person with the most votes among the younger generation.
In everyone's eyes,
Kakashi truly deserved to be the next Hokage.
His father was Konoha's White Fang, and his reputation once surpassed even the Sannin.
He himself was the person who continuously broke ninja promotion records, a genius among his peers.
His teacher was the Fourth Hokage, a pure Hokage faction member.
He was also the teacher of Naruto, Sasuke, and others, the leader of Team Seven. It was said that great Hokage often emerged from Team Seven.
Considering so many factors, they all chose Kakashi as the next Hokage.
Seeing the end of the vote,
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said to Kakashi, "In a few days, you can go to the Fire Country Daimyo to report and then hold the succession ceremony."
"Yes, Lord Third Hokage!" Kakashi replied somewhat formally.
Then, Kakashi walked to Minato and said, "Teacher, the expulsion will wait until I become Hokage. It will carry more weight in the village then."
"Well, Kakashi, you can follow your own ideas in the future. I believe you can manage Konoha Village well," Minato patted his shoulder encouragingly.
At this time,
Might Guy on the side suddenly rushed forward with a serious expression, "Kakashi, I want to have one last match with you!"
Kakashi said awkwardly, "Guy, this isn't the right time for a competition!"
Guy stubbornly insisted, "No! Once you become Hokage, I won't have the chance to compete with you again. So, I must seize this opportunity and win against you!"
"Ah, what will this competition be?"
Guy thought for a moment and said, "Starting from the village gate, whoever runs to the Hokage Rock first wins!"

PS:
The writing of this chapter is not worthy of deep analysis, because I am really not very good at dealing with the relationship between Minato and Konoha Village.
Killing them all is inappropriate, but not killing them is also inappropriate.

At the same time I've to write plots and dialogues myself and if I don't write it the chapters wouldn't make sense to y'all.
