Chapter 16 Changes in Public Opinion (Ask for Follow-up, Ask for Recommendation Votes!) )
Walking down the street, from time to time, Zongju could hear some people discussing the political situation in Konoha.
"Well, have you heard? It seems that the third generation is about to resign! ”
"Huh? When was this? No way? ”
"It is said that what happened in the past two days was announced at the memorial service!"
"Why did you resign? I think the third generation is pretty good, huh? ”
"What's the matter, I heard that he did a lot of wrong things in this war, and we Konoha suffered huge losses!"
"This ...... I don't know much about the war, so who is taking over? ”
"I don't know, I heard that it may be a Shangnin named Bo Feng Shuimen!"
"Bo Feng Shuimen? Who is it? ”
"This person is amazing, you listen to me in detail......"
......
"Have you started building momentum for Watergate?" Zong Ju thought to himself.
Ordinary people generally don't pay much attention to changes in the political situation, and this thing is too far away from them.
But driven by public opinion, they will occasionally learn about it.
Along the way, Kamiizumi heard a lot of people talking about it.
Some of them are complaining about the three generations of Hokage, while others are defending him.
Some are talking about Orochimaru, and some are talking about the glorious achievements of Bo Feng Shuimen.
"Orochimaru-sama has made a lot of achievements, and he is more qualified to be the Hokage than Bo Feng Shuimen!"
"Orochimaru? What was he doing in this war? Did he contribute? On the contrary, it was the Shinobu of Watergate who saved the lives of countless companions! ”
"The strength of the Shinobi on the Water Gate is high, and it is many times stronger than Orochimaru!"
"When encountering a wave of wind and water, you can abandon the task without being punished, this is the highest evaluation given by the enemy country!"
"It would be great if Mizuto-sama could become the Hokage!"
"Hmph, you ignorant little ghosts, during the Second Ninja World War, Lord Orochimaru ......"
"The Second Ninja World War, what era was that?" The young man who spoke looked dazed.
"You ......"
......
Such a controversy spread throughout Konoha Village, and under the impetus of well-intentioned people, public opinion was almost one-sided.
A bunch of black material suddenly appeared on Orochimaru's body, and all kinds of rumors emerged one after another.
His popularity plummeted.
On the other hand, Watergate was excavated bit by bit in the war, constantly amplified.
He cared about his comrades, saved his comrades, and saved the war......
A large crowd suddenly appeared, and they opened their mouths and said:
"A friend/relative/family member of mine was involved in the previous big war......"
They recounted in detail how Watergate saved the people around him during the war and how he cared for his companions.
It's as if I was there when this happened.
At the same time, they also swear to tell how Orochimaru persecuted the ninjas in the same village......
If you count the cases that these people are talking about, you will get a ridiculous statistic:
The number of Konoha ninjas that Watergate has saved in the war may be more than the total number of Konoha ninjas.
And the same is true of the number of Konoha ninjas that Orochimaru has persecuted.
However, in Konoha Village, it is obvious that no one has the ability or willingness to organize such a survey and statistical activity.
Those who know the political situation are well aware of this change in the direction of public opinion.
In this battle of public opinion, Danzang and Orochimaru were completely defeated!
The power they wield is far inferior to that of the three generations of Hokage.
"On the surface, it seems to be a comparison of the personal charm and merits of Mizuto and Orochimaru, but it is actually a comparison of the connections and money abilities of the three generations and the group!" Kamizumi Zongju commented in his heart.
Obviously, in terms of connections, Tuan Zang is far inferior to the Japanese slash who has been the Hokage for decades.
And when it comes to financial resources, not to mention!
Konoha's financial power has always been in the hands of the three generations, and even the funds needed for the development of the roots of the group need to be allocated by the three generations.
Next, the three generations will probably visit the patriarchs of those big families and lobby them to support Watergate.
Then, at the Kaminobi meeting, Mizuto will be nominated as the fourth Hokage.
It is not a problem for this matter to pass the vote of the Shangnin Council.
After all, the Ape Flying Family alone can contribute a lot of votes to Watergate.
Not to mention that Mizuto also befriended Konoha's number one family, the Uchiha clan, through the route of Madame diplomacy.
Kamiizumi silently observed the changes in Konoha.
He can't get involved in this kind of political turmoil for the time being.
After all, he is still just a shinobi and has no power to participate in Konoha politics.
Only if you become a shinobi can you have an admission ticket.
In a sense, Konoha's upper ninja is equivalent to a councilor and a xx representative.
After walking through several taverns and casinos, Zong Ju did not find Tsunade.
"Is it difficult to walk through the dozen or so locations marked on this map?" He thought a little depressed.
At this moment, a surprised voice came from behind him:
"Zong Ju senior!"
When I looked back, it was a young man wearing a black tights and a Konoha forehead guard.
On the back of his clothes is a fan clan crest, representing the Uchiha clan.
This face is somewhat familiar, and I think about it carefully:
"Are you...... Does the Uchiha stop water? Zong Ju asked.
"Senior knows me?" Uchiha Shisui's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"It's not surprising that I know you, after all, you are the famous 'instantaneous water stop', but you actually know a nobody like me?"
"The seniors are too modest, and at the memorial service the day before yesterday, your exposition of peace deeply shocked me!"
Zong Ju noticed that there was a hint of recognition and reverence in Zhishui's eyes.
It's not the kind that comes out in disguise!
"This kid is really ......"
For a while, he was not good at commenting!
"Haha, I'm just saying it casually!"
"No, in my opinion, you are a person who truly understands the will of fire, and I have a lot of questions for you!"
The attitude of stopping the water is extremely serious.
"Ahem, stop the water, I'm a little busy right now, why don't we take some time to discuss it later?"
"Ahh Is that so? Sorry, then I won't bother the seniors! I'll ask you again when I have a chance! ”
There was a hint of disappointment in Zhishui's eyes, but he still said goodbye to Zong Ju seriously.
Looking at the figure of Zhishui leaving, Shangquan Zongju fell into deep thought.
Whatever question the child asks him, he can figure it out with his toes.
Isn't it just a grand narrative?
I know that!
I'll have to take some time to fool around in the future...... Ah no, instruct him.
Soju continued his journey to find Tsunade.
After walking through Konoha's taverns and casinos, he didn't see Tsunade.
"Do you mean...... She's out of money today? Zong Ju touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
He checked his pockets and saw that he didn't have any extra money on him, so he nodded contentedly.
Leaving the casino, Zong Ju glanced at the remaining locations on the map and chose one of the directions.
