A copy of the Weekly Report on Major Shinobi World Events was delivered into Yagura's hands.
"Kirigakure is shaless to the extre!"
"During the battlefield reparations, they hid a thod within the exchange and turned Genji into a human bomb, causing hundreds of elite Sunagakure shinobi to suffer casualties. They have destroyed the rules of the shinobi world. Their cris cannot be forgiven."
"They have broken through the lowest limits of morality."
"Sunagakure will pursue this matter to the end!"
"We will never let this go!"
"We hope the other shinobi villages of the world take this as a warning. When conducting shinobi exchanges with Kirigakure, be cautious! Be cautious!"
"Kirigakure is truly the sha of the shinobi world!"
The headline of this issue of the Weekly Report on Major Shinobi World Events was sowhat different from previous issues.
The previous issues had basically stated events.
But this ti, it was direct cursing.
A direct attack against Kirigakure.
Yagura's face beca extrely ugly.
He had not expected Sunagakure's counterattack to co so quickly, so fiercely.
With the current popularity of the Weekly Report on Major Shinobi World Events, one could easily imagine how many people would see this newspaper.
How many people would see the words in this headline.
Sunagakure was essentially cursing Kirigakure directly in front of half the shinobi world.
"Too vulgar!"
"Far too vulgar!"
Yagura's face reddened with anger.
"To curse so harshly in a newspaper—is this sothing a shinobi village should do?"
"Rasa, you disappoint too much."
"I never expected you to be so crude."
And Sunagakure publicly cursing them in the newspaper was not rely insulting Kirigakure. It would also deal a trendous blow to Kirigakure's image in the shinobi world.
A shinobi village that secretly tampered with war reparations—
Was such a village worth trusting?
It directly lowered Kirigakure's reputation to an extrely low level.
What was crossing the river in white robes?
This was crossing the river in white robes.
After the ceasefire agreent had already been reached, Kirigakure suddenly attacked Sunagakure.
When the people of the shinobi world saw this headline, their impression of Kirigakure dropped to rock bottom.
"Kirigakure is too shaless."
"They already reached a ceasefire agreent and still attacked. What else would they not do?"
"Who could trust them?"
"I wouldn't even dare give them a mission commission. They might complete the mission, then kill and rob the client too."
Building trust was extrely difficult.
Destroying trust was very easy.
Just like now.
Yagura could clearly feel that the mission commissions Kirigakure received had decreased.
Even in the Land of Water.
For so simple missions, people would rather hire ordinary people than ninja.
"This cannot continue."
"This problem must be solved."
"But now that things have beco like this, soone must take responsibility."
"It cannot be Kirigakure. Then it can only be Elder Genji."
Yagura made his decision.
A public notice was soon issued by Kirigakure.
Kirigakure threw all responsibility onto Genji and cleanly washed its hands of the matter.
"Regarding the Genji incident, Kirigakure expresses deep apologies to Sunagakure. No one in Kirigakure knew of the entire matter. It was decided privately by Genji alone, and Genji bears full responsibility."
"Kirigakure sympathizes with Sunagakure's experience and has decided to offer a certain amount of compensation."
"In this matter, Kirigakure is also a victim."
"Kirigakure hopes Sunagakure can return the remaining prisoners."
"The prisoners are innocent."
"Kirigakure hopes to hold talks with Sunagakure once more."
After Kirigakure's notice was issued—
So people speculated that perhaps Genji really had been dissatisfied with Kirigakure handing him over, and had privately self-destructed, taking revenge on Sunagakure while also taking revenge on Kirigakure.
As for selling out Genji, the people of the shinobi world could actually understand Yagura.
Because that had been a condition proposed by Sunagakure.
Kirigakure had indeed lost and no longer had the strength to continue fighting.
Only by agreeing to Sunagakure's terms could they obtain a ceasefire and obtain peace.
Then why had Sunagakure proposed such a condition?
Naturally, because Kirigakure had proposed such a condition first.
Because of that, regarding Genji being sold out, the people of the shinobi world mostly believed the responsibility lay with the Third Mizukage.
And Yagura did not hesitate to push everything onto the Third Mizukage.
Thus, the greatest sinner in Kirigakure's history appeared.
The Third Mizukage!
Why had Kirigakure lost?
The Third Mizukage's fault.
Why had the Seven Ninja Swordsn failed?
The Third Mizukage's fault.
Who had first proposed forcing an enemy village to sell out one of its own shinobi as a condition?
The Third Mizukage.
Who was the main culprit behind Genji's death?
The Third Mizukage.
"The Third Mizukage is probably the worst Third Kage among the Five Great Shinobi Villages."
"The Third Hokage holds the title of Professor. He is skilled in compound ninjutsu, has decent strength, and trained the Sannin. Under the Third Hokage's leadership, Konoha also achieved victory over Sunagakure."
"The Third Tsuchikage possesses Dust Release, a Kekkei Tōta. He led Iwagakure to victory over Kumogakure, killed the Third Raikage, and still managed to retreat in one piece."
"The Third Raikage possessed the title of strongest spear and strongest shield. His strength was extrely powerful. He fought thousands of Iwagakure shinobi alone to the bitter end. He deserves respect."
"The Third Kazekage was the strongest Kazekage before the Fourth Kazekage. His strength was decent. He did not make Sunagakure stronger, but he raised an outstanding figure like the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa."
"Only the Third Mizukage failed at everything he did."
"During his managent of the village, Kirigakure only beca weaker and weaker. He even caused many shinobi to defect."
Even inside Kirigakure, a wave of slander against the Third Mizukage rose at this ti.
"If not for the Third Mizukage, the Kaguya Clan would not have defected, Fuguki Suikazan would not have defected, the Hozuki Clan would not have declined, and Kirigakure might not have lost at all."
"The Third Mizukage was too incompetent."
Even the policy the Third Mizukage had proposed, the Bloody Mist Village, was questioned along with him.
"Are shinobi trained like that really good shinobi?"
"With such great sacrifice, you might create one genius. Their strength may be very powerful, but will they be loyal to the village?"
The faction opposed to the Bloody Mist Village seized this opportunity and launched fierce criticism.
When Rasa heard the news, his brows lifted slightly.
"I didn't expect this to bring Kirigakure such benefits."
Rasa had never thought the Bloody Mist Village was a good thing.
Using competition to stimulate potential was not wrong.
But the competition had gone too far.
No matter what it was, once it passed its limit, it beca a bad thing.
Rasa gave Kirigakure his response.
"If you want to talk, fine. Co to the Land of Wind!"
Compared to Yagura coming to the Land of Wind for negotiations, Rasa was looking forward more to Kirigakure's planned retaliation against Konoha.
According to the schedule he had heard earlier, it would happen within the next few days.
Rasa glanced at the number in his points column.
"After Kirigakure's operation this ti, I should almost reach three thousand points."
