Chapter 113 The lethality of journalism A person's face often reflects different images in the eyes of different people. Now, in the eyes of Yakushi Nono, Shiba Kiyokawa has become an unprecedented great leader. However, not long after, in the eyes of the Konoha ninjas, he was destined to be an absolute devil! All of this started on this day, when an explosive piece of news suddenly began to spread in the ninja world - Princess Tsunade of Konoha betrayed Konoha Village, causing Konoha's frontline commander Orochimaru to be seriously injured and her former teammate Hiruzen to be defeated and captured! This news spread throughout the ninja world overnight, shocking the five major ninja villages. At first, most people's first reaction to the news was doubt. After all, Tsunade had made great achievements in the last Ninja World War, not to mention her special identity meant that as long as she didn't do anything too outrageous, she was destined to be the most honorable ninja in Konoha for the rest of her life. What reason did she have to abandon Konoha? But soon after, with the news that Orochimaru returned to the front line seriously injured and Obito appeared in the Rain Land, the entire ninja world was shaken unprecedentedly. After Shiba Kiyokawa came back, he didn't even rush to settle pharmacist Nonou right away. He was busy spreading the news. The surrendered Beiliuhu spoke out and soon brought the incident to a climax!
The most important thing is that Beiliuhu performed the role with complete sincerity and real feelings, without any trace of affectation. From his perspective, he truly believed from the bottom of his heart that Tsunade had betrayed him! Within one day, countless spies and secret agents from various ninja villages swarmed into the Rain Country, but no matter how they secretly investigated and inquired, the information they obtained was all false! The sound of Obito scolding Tsunade could be heard by four Anbu ninjas from different forces at the same time, and no one could hear the slightest element of disguise or acting in it. Every word of his roar came from the heart, it couldn't be more genuine. Soon, all the major ninja villages realized that Konoha was in big trouble! When the news reached the east, Jiraiya, the temporary commander of the Kirigakure war zone, went berserk on the spot. He almost abandoned the entire front line and rushed to the Rain Country to find Hiruzen and settle the score! In the end, it was only with the help of a group of senior ninjas on the front line that they were able to stop the furious Jiraiya. "Asshole! Let me go! I want to find Hiruhu! How could Tsunade do such a thing? How could Hiruhu say such a thing? What does that guy think of his companions? What does he think of the village?" His jonin held him tightly and tried to dissuade him. "Master Jiraiya, calm down! Calm down! If you abandon everyone here now, aren't you also abandoning the entire village?" After hearing this, Jiraiya finally calmed down. "You are right. The war here will continue. Wait a moment. I will write a letter to the old man!" It was said that he was writing a letter, but in fact, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen received more than a dozen letters in a row that day brought back by the Anbu from the front line. Not only Jiraiya, there were too many Konoha ninjas on the front line who were anxiously asking him, the Hokage, who was also Tsunade's instructor, about this news. Everything was just as Shiba Kiyokawa had expected: Tsunade's identity was too special, and any slight misunderstanding about her was no less than an earthquake for Konoha. During this time, the consultant Mizutomon En made a rare correct inference, "Hiroko is now captured in the Rain Country. Could this be a conspiracy directed by the Akatsuki organization in the Rain Country?" But Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe, still frowning, "What's the point of knowing this?" At this moment, he couldn't help but start to blame Danzo who was still lying on the hospital bed. Why would you go and provoke the Rain Country?! "The most urgent thing now is to contact Tsunade first. No matter what happened, tell her that we forgive her and let her come back first!" At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not yet able to clearly realize the seriousness of the problem, and still thought that Konoha could forgive Tsunade. But soon, Shiba Kiyokawa would teach him a good lesson. Let him understand what the fascinating moments of journalism are!
On the first day, the focus of the ninja world was mainly on Tsunade's indifferent standoff, which led to Orochimaru being seriously injured and Obito being defeated. But on the next day, as Shiba Kiyokawa's evil plan further fermented, things began to develop step by step, making Sarutobi Hiruzen tremble, fear, and become anxious! The next day, Tsunade's identity, background, and even the story of her grandfather Hashirama Senju founding Konoha Village began to spread widely. Overnight, starting from the vicinity of the Rain Country, many kind-hearted people with excellent eloquence suddenly appeared in the towns and cities of the Fire Country, the Grass Country and even the River Country. As if reciting a script, they began to educate the ignorant crowds about the origin of Konoha Village and the glory of the Senju clan after dinner. Because on the surface this seemed to be just praising Konoha, the Konoha ninjas in the border cities of the Fire Country and even in the front-line war zones did not react to this phenomenon immediately. Until - before the end of some storytelling session, someone suddenly asked for no reason, "Since the entire Konoha Village was founded by the Senju clan, then what basis do you have to say that Tsunade, the princess of the Senju clan, has abandoned Konoha? Shouldn't Konoha be the one that failed Tsunade?" The identity of this spectator could not be verified later. Maybe he really just said it unintentionally, or maybe all this was the result of the planning of someone with ulterior motives. But the final result no longer matters. Because just one day later, Konoha felt the horror of journalism! The same thing that remains unchanged can have a completely different impact when the angle of interpretation changes! A day ago people were asking: Why did Tsunade betray Konoha? What was she thinking? A day later, people would still start to ask: Why did Tsunade betray Konoha? But the question that followed became: What did Konoha do to her? Just this slight change in angle instantly increased the lethality of the entire incident by several levels! The Konoha ninjas, who had been able to control their emotions in the past few days, now completely exploded! The war situation has been unfavorable in recent months, and Konoha Village has been like a dangerous powder keg, accumulating countless negative energies. At this moment, this question was more like a fuse. Overnight, it caused Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart to almost stop several times. That was Tsunade after all! The only princess of the Senju clan! In order to respond to Hashirama's call, many ninjas of the Senju clan voluntarily gave up their surnames and integrated into the Konoha Village. Now this group of ninjas has branched out and completely integrated into every aspect of Konoha, becoming the cornerstone of the entire Konoha Village. But the earliest members of the Thousand Hands tribe are just old, they are not dead yet! When this news came back, how could they bear it? That night, in the office of the Hokage building, Sarutobi Hiruzen listened to the report from the Anbu, lowered his head, and took the pipe from his lips with trembling hands. That action was very similar to that of a deceased leader from another time and space, who took off his glasses for the last time in his office. Then Xiao Se said, "The advisor and the Anbu captain stay, and the others go out first." After the rest of the Anbu ninjas left instantly, he angrily threw the pen in his hand at the map of the Ninja World in front of him! "I'm so pissed! Those scumbags from the Rain Country!"
