Konoha
Usually peaceful, Konoha had seen one major incident after another recently.
First, the Uchiha were attacked, then Kakashi was attacked.

It was all written with absolute clarity.
The villagers looked at one another, some unable to believe it.
If Danzo had once merely disgusted all the villagers, now he filled them with dread.
No one had expected Danzo to have committed so many evil deeds.
Under the manipulation of those with ulterior motives, even ordinary villagers
