A Konoha ninja picked up a leaflet.
It was a piece of stiff paper, about the size of a palm.
On one side was an image of a beautiful female ninja. On the other side, eye-catching text was printed.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi has lost all conscience, intending to exterminate the Uchiha clan...!"
"The position of Hokage should have belonged to Kagami Uchiha...!"
"The Hyuga will soon become the next Uchiha...!"
...
Rasa hadn't just written about Kagami Uchiha on the leaflets. Instead, he had mixed in a lot of other content. This made it seem more natural, and more people would discuss it.
However, every sentence revolved around the Uchiha.
This meant that as long as anyone discussed it, the Uchiha was an unavoidable topic.
And mentioning the Uchiha would inevitably lead to mentioning Kagami Uchiha.
As for the image of the beautiful female ninja on the other side, that was also an attraction point.
If there were only text, not many people would pick it up to look.
But with the image of a beautiful kunoichi on it, the number of people picking it up would increase drastically.
After seeing the text on it, the Konoha ninja's face changed drastically.
"Who threw this?"
He hurriedly looked up at the sky, hoping to find the person who threw the leaflets.
But he couldn't find anyone at all.
Leaving aside the fact that Rasa had already moved to the airspace directly above the Rock army by this time, even if Rasa were still there, these Konoha ninja simply wouldn't be able to see his figure.
"Can't find the thrower!"
"Damn it!"
A Konoha ninja realized something was wrong.
"Quick, pick up all these cards and dispose of them! We can't let too many people see them."
Was the content on the cards true? It was hard to say.
Would many Konoha ninja believe the content of the cards? Probably not many.
However, if these cards were seen by many people, it would definitely cause a negative impact.
But just as he had this thought...
Suddenly, more cards fell down.
Rasa had dropped a full 100,000 cards.
What fell just now was merely the prelude.
Now came the true scene of "leaflets" raining down.
Densely packed, filling the sky.
A Konoha ninja's eyes widened, his mouth agape.
"What is this?"
Another Konoha ninja had just finished picking up a few cards around him, but soon, even more fell.
"Too many! There are too many!"
"I can't pick them all up! There's no way to pick them all up!"
Even though they felt these cards would cause problems, seeing such a massive quantity, they despairingly stopped trying to pick them all up.
Discussion rose and fell all around.
"What a beautiful kunoichi. I wonder which village she's from."
"Uchiha... Is this a strategy by the Hidden Rock? Did the Hidden Rock drop these cards?"
"It's highly likely. After all, our biggest enemy right now is the Hidden Rock. And the Hidden Rock has ninjutsu that allows flight. They definitely did it."
"Are they trying to sow discord among us?"
"Are they joking? How could we fall for this?"
However, not all Konoha ninja thought this way.
Regarding the Uchiha matter, the vast majority of Konoha ninja stood on the side of the village.
After all, the village was still here, while the Uchiha were gone.
But they would also ponder a question.
How did the Uchiha reach this step?
At first, it was just rumors about Kagami Uchiha spreading. Then, a part of the Uchiha began to go on strike, dissatisfied. And then, it turned into rebellion.
The matter of Tong Uchiha was suppressed, so few knew about it.
But many people knew about Gen Uchiha.
A person like Gen Uchiha, whether it was for show or something else, shouldn't have been killed.
Especially the Hyuga ninja.
Because the card also mentioned their name.
"What does the Hidden Rock mean by this? Putting my Hyuga clan on the fire to roast?"
"Even if we don't believe it, will the village think we believe it? And thus be wary of us?"
"Perhaps we should be vigilant."
A small number of Hyuga clan ninja were seriously considering whether the Hyuga clan would follow in the Uchiha's footsteps.
Compared to ordinary ninja, the Hyuga clan members knew more.
"Tong Uchiha questioned Lord Hokage, and he died."
"Gen Uchiha longed for the village's understanding, and he died too."
"The Uchiha still in the village now are trapped in their compound, like imprisoned criminals."
"Shisui Uchiha symbolically received an important position, but it's just symbolic."
There were too many propaganda cards.
So many that almost all Konoha ninja picked one up and saw it.
After all, the number of Konoha ninja on the front lines was only a little over ten thousand.
Some people tore them up directly.
Some people couldn't bear to part with the image of the kunoichi on it and chose to keep it.
For a time, it seemed all the Konoha ninja were talking about this matter.
Soon, the news was transmitted back to Konoha.
Inside the Hokage Building.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the intelligence report, his face dark.
Opposite him stood Homura Mitokado.
"Shameless!"
"Too shameless!"
Homura shouted sternly, "Hiruzen, the Hidden Rock actually used such shameless means to drop so many slanderous, rumor-mongering, and divisive cards from high altitude. And with such revealing pictures of female ninja."
"Despicable to the extreme."
"In the entire history of the ninja world, no one has used such despicable means."
"We must retaliate against this!"
Hiruzen looked up at Homura.
"How do we retaliate?"
Homura fell silent.
Hiruzen looked at the card in his hand. First, he looked at the side with the text, reading all the content. Then, he turned the card to the side with the kunoichi, and calmly set it down.
Hiruzen issued an order to an ANBU ninja.
"Pass my order: collect all such cards on the battlefield and destroy them."
"Those who hide them privately will be considered criminals."
The ANBU ninja nodded heavily.
"Yes, Lord Hokage."
Afterward, Hiruzen summoned another ninja.
"Go to the Hyuga clan and invite their clan head over. Just say I have something to discuss with him."
"Yes, Lord Hokage."
Hiruzen ignored the content about the Uchiha on the card.
Because it was meaningless. The Uchiha clan had already defected. The remaining few dozen Uchiha couldn't make any waves. And since they hadn't chosen to leave before, they certainly wouldn't now.
What Hiruzen cared about was the Hyuga clan.
Hiruzen planned to stabilize the internal situation of the village first before retaliating against the person who dropped the cards.
The situation in the Rock army was the complete opposite of Konoha's.
"Using such a method to shake Konoha's morale?"
"Too simple, too crude!"
"But the effect is good."
"Which genius in our village came up with this method? Simply brilliant!"
