Early in the morning, the villagers of Konoha woke up to find new pieces of paper plastered all over the streets in prominent locations.
Curious, they went up to check, and what they read shocked them to their core.
"Telescope Technique, created by the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. This technique allows the user to lock onto another's chakra and observe them remotely. It can also be used to peek into unshielded areas such as the rivers, bathhouses, and hot springs of Konoha. A warning to the women of Konoha: avoid bathing in the rivers, bathhouses, or hot springs."
"The technique requires a crystal ball as a medium. Hand seals are as follows..."
"This is a jutsu!"
"Telescope Technique, huh? Sounds impressive... Wait, isn't there something off about this? Are we all being watched?"
"Being watched is one thing, but this technique can be used to spy on women bathing! Someone, write this down-this is gold!"
"So this was developed by the Third Hokage himself? That's amazing."
For a moment, those who saw the notice became excited. Some shinobi even quietly memorized the hand seals for the jutsu.
Why are so many villagers gathering?
Noticing the commotion, the members of the Anbu arrived to investigate, only to be dumbfounded by what they saw.
As members of the Hokage's personal guard, they were well aware that the Third Hokage often carried a crystal ball to "keep an eye on things."
But now, someone had spread this information to the public, and it was likely that many people had already taken note of it-including spies from other villages.
This was a disaster!
The Anbu quickly moved to disperse the crowd and began tearing down the papers, rushing them to the Hokage's office as fast as they could.
"Hokage-sama, we have a major problem," One of the Anbu reported, their tone filled with urgency.
Although it was barely dawn, the Third Hokage had already started his day, seated at his desk and handling paperwork. The panicked arrival of the ANBU caused his heart to skip a beat. What he feared most were the potentially devastating reports from the front lines.
"What is it?" he asked, bracing himself.
"Hokage-sama, it's best if you see for yourself," Anbu member replied, hesitating as they handed over one of the papers they had removed from the streets.
Paper?
With his pipe in hand, the Third Hokage glanced at the paper on his desk, puzzled.
This is just an ordinary piece of paper, he thought.
If this was frontline intelligence, it wouldn't be written on regular paper like this. It would be on specially coded paper or a scroll.
At least it's not news from the frontlines, he thought, somewhat relieved. Anything else, I can deal with.
