He then nominated himself and states that he will take Konoha in a new direction, something one of the daimyō's advisers agrees with. Danzō believed the ideology simply made Konoha appear weak and left them exposed to attacks. The Konoha Crush, the frequent confrontations with Akatsuki, the defection of Sasuke Uchiha, and the destruction of Konoha's infrastructure, all stemmed from the ideology that kindness and unity would lead to peace. However, Danzō points out that the teachings that were passed down to Kakashi were the cause of Konoha's problems and current crisis. Although he is reluctant to replace the comatose Hokage, Tsunade, he likes Shikaku Nara's idea of Kakashi Hatake becoming Hokage, recognising him as the son of Konoha's White Fang and the student of the Fourth Hokage. Part Two Pain's Assaultįollowing the destruction of Konoha by Pain, the daimyō assembles a meeting to discuss how to proceed. The Fire Daimyō was briefly mentioned to having been at an emergency meeting after the Third Hokage's death to choose a new Hokage their choice from this meeting was Jiraiya. He also wears the standard daimyō headpiece. He has small, circular eyes and dark pupils. Ultimately, Minato Namikaze was elected as Fourth Hokage unanimously, excluding Danzō who detested the ideologies. Hiruzen, however, pointed out that Orochimaru had grown power-hungry and showed signs of sinister intent. In the anime, a meeting with Konohagakure was convened after Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped down as the Third Hokage. Danzō strongly suggested that Orochimaru be made Fourth Hokage. Ultimately, Minato Namikaze was elected as Fourth Hokage unanimously, excluding Danzō who detested the idea.
