The Rock ninja were delighted to see this, watching the drama unfold with great interest.
"The Konoha side must be completely bewildered right now."
"But it's precisely because Konoha has such internal issues that our actions can be effective and shake their morale."
"If Konoha tried to use this on our Hidden Rock, it wouldn't have this effect."
"In the end, Konoha brought this upon themselves."
Hidden Rock Village.
Tsuchikage's Office.
Onoki looked at the card presented by the ninja below, his eyes lighting up involuntarily. With just one glance at the female ninja on the card, Onoki's attention was captivated.
Trying to refuse yet welcoming, sending amorous glances in secret, half-concealed, adding a few more degrees of temptation.
"Ahem!"
Realizing the intelligence ninja below was still waiting, Onoki coughed dryly and hurriedly flipped the card over.
He read through the text on it.
"Is the outside world saying our Hidden Rock did this?"
"Answering Lord Tsuchikage, yes."
Onoki raised an eyebrow.
Before the cards appeared, Onoki knew nothing about them. It wasn't until the intelligence came in and he held a card in his hand that Onoki understood what had happened.
Therefore, it couldn't have been done by the Hidden Rock.
But if it wasn't the Hidden Rock, who could it be?
A guess surfaced in Onoki's mind.
"Uchiha..."
Right now, the two forces with the worst relationship with Konoha were the Hidden Rock and the Uchiha.
The Uchiha's hatred for Konoha was far heavier than the Hidden Rock's.
"Scattering a large number of these cards from high altitude. One side is a female ninja, the other side is rumors, driving a wedge between Konoha's other ninja clans and the village."
"Making these ninja clans wary of Konoha."
"Making Konoha no longer feel so assured about these ninja clans."
"Specifically highlighting the Hyuga clan."
"Besides the fact that the Hyuga clan's situation in Konoha is somewhat similar to the Uchiha clan's before, it seems the Uchiha clan is somewhat dissatisfied with the Hyuga clan."
"Whoever did it, it's a good thing for our Hidden Rock."
"But the Hidden Rock won't take the blame for this."
Onoki looked at the intelligence ninja below.
"Spread the word that these cards were not done by our Hidden Rock. However, we welcome any Konoha ninja clan to defect to us. As long as they come, they will be members of our Hidden Rock Village."
"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage."
Onoki looked in the direction of the distant Land of Fire, revealing a smile.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi... In this war, the advantage lies entirely with my Hidden Rock. Konoha has been powerful for too long. It is time for my Hidden Rock's turn. The title of the Number One Ninja Village belongs to none other than my Hidden Rock!"
Soon, Onoki's statement was released.
The Rock ninja discussed it excitedly.
"It wasn't done by our Hidden Rock?"
"What do you know? Lord Tsuchikage just doesn't want to admit it openly."
"However, it's not really that we want to sow discord between Konoha and those ninja clans within their village, but rather that Konoha and those clans can be divided."
"The Uchiha are a classic example."
Some people couldn't help but discuss the female ninja on the cards.
"I wonder where these female ninja are from. They are truly beautiful."
"If only I could marry one as a wife."
This was something Rasa hadn't expected.
In making these cards, Rasa only intended to spread rumors about Kagami Uchiha to earn points.
The reason he printed female ninja on the other side was simply to increase the probability of the cards being looked at.
But he didn't expect that both Konoha ninja and Rock ninja would pay such extraordinary attention to the female ninja on them.
For a time, the female ninja on the cards became "star-like" existences.
However, it was impossible for them to find the real people corresponding to the images.
Because those female ninja didn't exist in this world at all.
Rasa had imported "teachers" from another world, merely adding ninja uniforms with a Hidden Rock style to them for this world.
"By the way, how many female ninja are there in total?"
"Ten, I think."
"Have you collected all ten?"
"No, I've only collected six. There are a few female ninja cards that are very rare and too hard to obtain."
"I really want to collect them all soon."
For a time, a craze for collecting cards actually sprang up within the Rock army.
When he received this news, Rasa's expression became somewhat complicated.
"Things have actually turned out like this. It completely exceeded my expectations."
"But fortunately, the result is good."
Because even on the Konoha side, despite Hiruzen Sarutobi's order to destroy the cards, there were still some Konoha ninja secretly collecting them.
Not just collecting, but also exchanging and trading.
"Kakashi, what are you looking at?"
A voice rang out. Kakashi was startled, then calmly stuffed the card in his hand into his pocket, pretending nothing had happened.
"Nothing, I was checking the situation nearby."
"Oh, okay."
The other party revealed a look of realization and didn't suspect anything.
Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he looked at the other person, a trace of complexity involuntarily appeared in his eyes.
The front of the card featured a beautiful female ninja.
But the back of the card never strayed from the Uchiha.
An elder from the Hyuga clan walked into the Hokage Building. It was the current head of the Hyuga clan, the father of Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga. After entering, his attitude was very respectful.
"Lord Hokage."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded.
"Sit."
The Hyuga clan head sat down opposite Hiruzen.
Hiruzen continued, "You are aware of the matter regarding the cards air-dropped by the Hidden Rock on the battlefield recently, correct?"
Hearing this, the Hyuga clan head stood up again.
"Lord Hokage, my Hyuga clan absolutely has no thoughts of rebellion. My Hyuga clan is Konoha's Hyuga clan. Without Konoha, there is no Hyuga clan..."
Hiruzen waved his hand, interrupting the Hyuga clan head.
"I know. I called you here just to tell you that the village will not suspect your Hyuga clan without cause."
"This is the Hidden Rock's sowing of discord."
"As long as I sit in this Hokage seat for one day, the village will absolutely not act recklessly. You can rest assured on this point. regarding the Uchiha situation, you are also clear on it—they struck first."
The Hyuga clan head nodded.
"Lord Hokage, I understand. I will ensure all members of my Hyuga clan fight with peace of mind."
"Mm, go."
Watching the Hyuga clan head leave, Hiruzen's brow remained furrowed tight.
"This method by the Hidden Rock is truly despicable."
"But, ultimately, the Uchiha are to blame."
"Without the Uchiha, this mess wouldn't exist."
...
...
Hidden Sand Village.
Rasa looked at the rapidly rising points on the system panel, his eyes gradually lighting up.
"2548!"
