Chapter 609 Reversal of Public Opinion
As soon as Rope Tree's remarks came out, it caused a violent reaction in Konoha, and everyone knew what happened back then, and the second Hokage was also revered as a great hero because of this incident. But after Rope Tree's narration, people found out that the events of the year really broke the mission rules, first of all, the peace negotiation mission failed, and secondly, according to the status at that time, the second Hokage itself was the core target of protection, and according to the mission rules, he should not sacrifice himself to protect others! So in essence, both things are the same, White Fang and the second Hokage have broken the rules, and the current Konoha high-level are all losers who are dragging their feet!
However, this kind of thing is only qualified to be said by Rope Tree, who is a direct descendant of the second generation of Hokage, and changing someone will definitely be unanimously criticized by everyone.
Soon Konoha public opinion completely changed, and everyone was fiercely discussing which was more important, the mission or the life of the ninja? Should ninjas sacrifice everything to accomplish their mission?
Some people feel that the rope tree has a point, and the ninja is also a member of Konoha and should be protected and should not be sacrificed at will. There are also people who feel that the rules should be followed, and that every mission failure can cause significant losses to Konoha and that it is worth the sacrifice of a few!
But now no one will blame White Fang's actions, after all, no one dares to blame the second Hokage.
The three generations of Hokage, the two advisors, and the high-ranking Konoha such as Danzou were also involved, and they became losers who dragged their feet and caused their reputation to be damaged, but they couldn't defend themselves.
Now these people know that their small movements have been noticed by the rope tree, but they didn't expect the counterattack to come so quickly and fiercely, and there is no room to fight back at all.
At the same time, everyone is also vigilant, and they must not use this kind of unseemly means to deal with the rope tree in the future, otherwise they can only suffer from it, because they are completely crushed by the other party in terms of wisdom. If they really tear their faces, it's likely that they old guys will lose.
The third generation had already regretted his actions at this time, he didn't expect that White Fang would choose to commit suicide so strongly, fortunately, the rope tree was treated in time, otherwise not only would the Hokage family lose their generals, but he would also have irreconcilable contradictions with the high-level of the new generation.
Now he can only try to find a way to mend the rift between the two sides, so for the increasingly heated discussion in Konoha Village, the three generations don't care at all.
The two advisors and Tuan Zang wanted to calm down the turmoil, but they couldn't do anything.
Following Rope Tree's public statement, Sannin also stated his position, bluntly saying that White Fang is a respectable old-timer, and there are irresistible objective factors in the failure of this mission, otherwise with White Fang's strength, he will not fail. In addition, ninjas are not omnipotent, everyone has the possibility of failure, calling on everyone to look at the problem leniently, but also to leave a way out for themselves.
To be honest, Sannin felt a little sad about what happened to White Fang, and even this senior who became famous earlier than them was so easily forced to death by the older generation, so wouldn't these juniors be even more unable to resist? Fortunately, the rope tree is very powerful, and the old guys are blinded, otherwise they may have completely lost confidence in Konoha Masabai as in the original book. Now that the wind of public opinion has completely reversed, of course they have come out to express their support.
The Three Ninjas and the Rope Tree have great prestige and influence in Konoha, and the vast majority of ninjas serve under their command, and there are many supporters.
So after the four of them spoke one after another, more and more ninjas came forward to express their support for White Fang, and showed that some of Konoha's mission rules were too strict, why did the ninjas in the major ninja villages take the initiative to give up the task when they encounter White Fang, and White Fang will be severely reprimanded if he only fails once? Is it wrong to be too powerful? This is too unfair.
As a ninja in their hearts, everyone wants their companions to help them like White Fang when they are in trouble, rather than being ruthlessly sacrificed by their companions in order to complete the task.
Therefore, except for a very small number of people who are extremely stubborn in their thinking, the majority of people support the choice of White Fang in their hearts.
Coupled with the precedent of the second Hokage, soon the trend of public opinion changed again, and White Fang went from a sinner who was hostile to everyone to a great ninja with a protective faith.
However, the turmoil did not subside as everyone imagined, because all kinds of doubts about the White Fang incident have been heard among the people.
For example, why is White Fang continuing to be delegated to a ministerial position? And why did the results of this classified mission get spread so quickly? What are the secrets of the so-called classified mission? Also, how important is the lost classified intelligence at the root? After losing it, why don't you recover it yourself and entrust it to White Fang? Most importantly, how was the whereabouts of the White Fang squad revealed, and was the enemy's ambush a coincidence?
This kind of widespread doubt has exposed almost all the tricks in this incident.
The eyes of the masses are bright, the reason why they will be blinded is because the amount of information is not equal, after the reminder of the rope tree, the smart people have their own answers, it is obvious that all the doubts point to the root!
Under the propaganda of well-intentioned people, almost everyone knew that the incident was planned by the roots, and the people became accomplices in the conspiracy under the deception of the other party.
Although there is no tangible evidence, the people who feel that they have been fooled condemned the root in unison, and for a time the reputation of the root and the group is completely stinky, and it has become the object of everyone's disgust and rejection.
Tuan Zang and the root have always been hidden in the dark, this is the first time to show their faces in front of the public, but unfortunately it's not a good impression, not to mention competing for the position of Hokage in the future, I'm afraid that walking on the street will be poked in the back.
This is the real revenge of the rope tree.,It's not his style to swallow his anger after being calculated.,Since Tuan Zang wants to play with public opinion.,Then he completely stinks the reputation of the other party.。
In the future, if anything shady happens to Konoha, Rope Tree can throw the black cauldron on the other party's head, anyway, the famous Tuanzang has no credibility to speak of, and no one will believe his defense.
After this incident, Tuan Zang's temperament became even more gloomy, and if it wasn't for a major meeting, he would basically not show up, hiding in the dark underground base at the root for a long time, living like a living dead.
The fate of the group made the three generations of Hokage and the two advisors even more afraid of the methods of the rope tree, and they made up their minds that they must not take the initiative to provoke each other if they did not have to, they needed to rely on their reputation to maintain their status!
"You are Konoha bathed in the sun, and I am the ...... in the darkness Root! ”
Murky sighs echoed from the dark underground.
