"I've always known that those guys owe me something, it's just that they never said it directly. The core of Konohagakure is not the Will of Fire, but the power and authority of the Uzumaki, only those who have power and authority can dominate everything."
"When I was young, I had nothing, so I became their target of persecution. Even if my father was the Fourth Hokage who sacrificed for Konohagakure, there would be no change at all. What Will of Fire, it's just something those people say." Naruto crossed his arms and said with a look of disdain.
"This... this... to say that, isn't it a bit too much?"
Ino's expression changed slightly, after all, the education she received for so many years was to believe in the leadership of the Hokage and adhere to the Will of Fire. Although she also felt that the high-levels of Konohagakure were not doing human affairs, it was a bit too much to evaluate the Will of Fire like this.
"There's nothing wrong with it. You've been indoctrinated by the Will of Fire for so long, haven't you found any problems? Well, it's true, the beautiful things of idealism can numb people, making them unable to see reality, unable to see the situation."
Naruto paused slightly, a playful smile appeared on his face and he asked, "I ask you, in the Will of Fire ideology you have accepted, besides idealism, what else is there? Is there a specific guideline? Is there a specific ideological program? Are there detailed scales and standards? Is there a specific plan? No, the inside of the Will of Fire is empty, it actually has nothing."
"This..."
Ino was dumbfounded, she thought carefully and found that the Will of Fire seemed to really have nothing. It seems that as long as it is for the good of the village, one can say that they have the Will of Fire. However, what is called for the good of the village does not have a standard definition.
Just like Danzo, he feels that he is contributing to Konohagakure, has the Will of Fire, and can become the Hokage of Konohagakure. But in reality? Is what he did really good for Konohagakure?
He did so many dirty things...
This is the inevitable result of the Will of Fire having no ideological program, no scales, and no standards. As long as one feels in their heart that they are doing good for Konohagakure, they will feel that they have the Will of Fire.
What's more terrifying is that this is even without a standard for the good of Konohagakure, it all depends on one's own thoughts.
"Hmph, I saw it a long time ago, the so-called Will of Fire is nothing more than a joke." Sasuke laughed, his expression gradually becoming serious, and he continued, "Naruto, Konohagakure is now in a period of turmoil, why don't we take advantage of the situation and wipe out all the existing high-levels of Konohagakure, and let Konohagakure have a major blood change?"
Hinata looked at Sasuke in surprise, blinked slowly, and uttered a word, "Great."
Ino: "?!!"
Karin: "!!!"
"Actually, it's okay. The thoughts and ideas of those high-levels in Konohagakure are completely different from normal people. Maybe if we don't do anything, they will take the initiative to find trouble." Naruto nodded slightly.
"Cough cough."
Hinata coughed twice and said, "You're going too far by saying that. After all, the Third Hokage said before he died that you are the son of the Fourth Hokage, and also designated you to become the Fifth Hokage. Those high-levels of Konohagakure are not so stupid as to do that, right? You're being a bit too harsh."
...
A day later, at Sasuke's house.
Hinata was gloomy, not daring to look directly at Naruto, and said in a very small voice, "Sorry, Naruto, I was careless this time. I really didn't expect the brains of the high-levels of Konohagakure to have such a big problem. I overestimated their intelligence."
On the side, Ino sat silently on the ground, her face full of sorrow and melancholy. She really didn't expect the high-levels of Konohagakure to be such a thing. They did such a stupid thing at this critical moment. Konohagakure is still lucky not to be destroyed.
It was Danzo's tricky operation. He sent people to spread rumors about Naruto, saying that Naruto destroyed Konohagakure. If it wasn't for him, Konohagakure would not have become what it is now...
And people really believed it!
"Well, how do I feel that the ability of you high-levels of Konohagakure... um... is not much stronger than that of Kusagakure Village?" Karin couldn't help but complain.
"A bunch of trashes. The Uchiha clan was destroyed because of them. It's a great shame. Sooner or later, I will wash away this shame with their blood."
Sasuke sneered and started cursing.
"So what now?"
"What else can we do?" Ino asked helplessly.
"What else can we do? Just do it. Whoever dares to speak ill of Naruto, just beat them up. Didn't they say that Naruto destroyed Konohagakure? It's very simple. Whoever dares to say more, just demolish the temporary residence of Konohagakure and show them, and then add a sentence: If you dare to spread rumors again, I will make the rumors come true. Whatever rumors are spread in the future, I will make them true."
As Sasuke spoke, a triumphant smile appeared on his face, and he continued, "Why do people spread rumors about you? Isn't it because there is no cost? It's all talk, whether it's true or false doesn't have any impact, and you can't do anything about it, so people will talk, and dare to speak freely."
"But as long as you are willing to give up some unnecessary persistence, just do it, just do it, I see who dares to spread rumors in the future! If there really are rumors in the future, the first person to block them will be the rumor-monger, and it will be impossible to spread."
"Slap!"
Hinata slapped the table and stared at Sasuke, "Have you thought about the consequences? What kind of consequences will Naruto face after doing these things?"
"Consequences? What's the use, those villagers can't bring us any positive benefits, so they are not friends to us, they were not friends from the beginning, they spread rumors about us, they are enemies, what's wrong with being ruthless against enemies." Sasuke directly countered.
"How will Naruto stay in Konohagakure in the future? Living under the eyes of people's fear, in this situation, will Naruto's life be happy?" Hinata continued to refute.
"Hinata, are you overestimating Konohagakure too much? Don't you understand Naruto? Do you think the attitude of the villagers of Konohagakure towards Naruto is good now and before? No, never, they have been hostile to Naruto from the beginning, so they owe Naruto, they owe a lot of debts, Naruto doesn't need to continue to indulge them!"
"I just ask you, they have treated Naruto like this from when he was a child until now, why should Naruto protect them and guard Konohagakure? If it weren't for Naruto's kind heart, Konohagakure would have been destroyed by those guys in black and red cloud robes. If it weren't for Naruto, whether Konohagakure could continue to exist would be a question!"
Sasuke kept shouting.
"Enough, stop arguing!"
Naruto directly interrupted the argument, looking at Sasuke and Hinata with a complex expression, he knew that Sasuke and Hinata were all for his good, just with different concepts and ideas.
