[Speaking of it, the "Will of Bullying" among the villagers of Konoha has been passed down for a long time, almost as much as the Will of Fire from generation to generation. From bullying Uzumaki Kushina to bullying Naruto, and later developing to bullying Boruto. No one could escape it.]
[Therefore, even though Sakura's family had such high status, they still could not avoid the fate of being bullied.]
[It is estimated that even if the Sage of Six Paths himself came, he would still be pointed at and cursed by Konoha villagers as a "horned monster."]
Everyone in the Shinobi World was instantly speechless. So this was what the "Will of Bullying" meant.
Then they started discussing animatedly:
"Didn't the screen talk about this before?"
"However, it still doesn't compare to those mobs in Kirigakure; after all, the Hidden Mist directly resorted to killing Bloodline Limit clans."
"As for the screen's claim that even the Sage of Six Paths would be bullied if he came to Konoha, that's just nonsense."
"With the Sage of Six Paths' strength, if he just stood there, the Konoha villagers wouldn't dare to even breath too loud!"
"Exactly! If they ran their mouths, he might just wipe the whole Village off the map!"
[If you have just come to Konoha Village and do not know how to fit in and become a qualified Konoha villager, then you can learn this lifestyle.]
[When you wake up, first curse the 'demon fox brat' a couple of times to properly start your day. At breakfast, compare bacon to the Akimichi clan and curse the 'damn fatties' a few of times to whet your appetite.]
[At noon, when you see tomatoes in your meal, think of the Uzumaki clan's red hair from the past and curse 'monster hair color' a couple of times.]
[For afternoon tea, when you run into Sakura at the next table, mutter a couple of lines about her 'forehead being big enough to race horses on.']
[While taking a walk, when you see Lee running, mock him a couple of times: 'An eternal Genin who only knows Taijutsu; waste taught by a waste.']
[At dinner, think of how Hinata, as the daughter of the Hyuga clan head, is not good at fighting, and curse her as a 'waste' to relieve boredom. Then when you go out for a walk in the evening and get startled by Neji's Byakugan, continue by cursing him for having the miserable life of a branch family member.]
[Before bed, pass by the old site of the Uchiha clan and casually throw in a couple of snide remarks: 'That arrogant Sasuke, he sure ran fast.']
[Of course, if you still feel it is not satisfying enough, you can continue bullying the next day.]
[A new day begins. When you wake up, find fault with Shino for his weird personality and unlucky bug techniques, and curse him as a 'freak'.]
[At breakfast, remember how the eternal Genin Might Duy couldn't use Ninjutsu, and call him a 'Taijutsu waste.']
[At noon, gossip about how Sakumo brought shame to Konoha, and by the way say that Kakashi 'became even gloomier after his father died.']
[At afternoon tea time, mock Iruka by saying, 'An orphan with no parents just has no upbringing.' While taking a walk, curse Orochimaru as a creepy monster.]
[At dinner, laugh at Madara for being historically reckless, claiming he was responsible for the Uchiha Clan's destruction.]
[Before sleeping, think of Obito: 'An Uchiha oddball like him also deserves to be a hero? He just had a good teacher!']
[Only by memorizing all of this and berating every misfit in the Village every day can you become an excellent Konoha villager and live in Konoha with a clear conscience every day.]
No one had expected the Sky Screen to actually list out an entire set of "bullying schedules" in such detail.
The Konoha villagers in the various Shinobi World Timelines instantly flushed red.
"Slander! Pure slander! How could we in Konoha possibly be like that!"
"Exactly! When did we bully others every day? That kid Naruto, we were just… just worried he would endanger the village! And now that we know he is a future hero, we treat him very well!"
"Right, besides, that was all in the past. We aren't saying anything about him anymore!"
As for the Konoha Shinobis who were called out, some sighed, some fell silent, and others didn't take it seriously at all.
For example, Hinata lowered her head, not saying anything. Kushina was furious. Fugaku and his wife frowned deeply. While, Orochimaru didn't care at all.
But there were also many people who felt that the Konoha villagers had been wronged.
Sure, they themselves had been pointed at and criticized in the past, but the villagers were by no means as exaggerated as this. The Sky Screen really was just slandering too much.
Hashirama, Tobirama, Hiruzen… all the way to Shikamaru, all looked at the screen with some headache.
They could suppress conflicts between Shinobi Clans, but they couldn't control the villagers' mouths. Although the villagers were not this exaggerated, with the screen "guiding" things like this, it might really make things worse. Moral education had to be strengthened again.
[But actually, the Five Great Shinobi Villages are all full of extraordinary people. Even the Konoha villagers are considered the mildest cases when included in the mix. The classic examples are Kumogakure and Iwagakure ostracizing and bullying Jinchuriki. And the most serious one is Kirigakure; all I can say is that those who know, know.]
[In the Hidden Mist Village, family, friendship, and love are all luxuries. Everyone lives in fear and suspicion, not knowing when they will be killed by those around them. How could people who grew up in such an environment have a normal psychology? That is why Kirigakure has the highest rate of rogue-nins among the Five Great Shinobi Villages.]
[Another seriously ill place is Sunagakure.]
[If Konoha is a lowland for quality moral education, then Sunagakure is the "Mariana Trench" of moral education.]
[As the saying goes, harsh environments produce unruly people. The harsh living conditions of Sunagakure made the villagers there numb to death. Even knowing that Gaara would kill people if he lost control, the villagers of Sunagakure still dared to bully Gaara.]
[They were afraid of Gaara, the weapon, going on a rampage, yet continuously used the cruelest ways to "polish" this weapon. It was a twisted duality of being both victim and abuser; simply a hybrid of "Stockholm syndrome" and "perpetrators."]

[Sunagakure, On the Streets]
When the villagers of Sunagakure heard the screen's evaluation, they immediately became unhappy, each one filled with righteous indignation.
"What do you mean our morals are lower than Konoha's? The screen previously said that the villagers of Konoha bullied Naruto. At least we in Sunagakure didn't bully Gaara that badly, right?"
"Exactly. We were just helping him control it better, what would we do if Gaara lost control? In the future we even supported him as Kazekage. Isn't that enough?"
"Besides, what's wrong with self-preservation? He has the One-Tail inside him. If he goes berserk, we'll all die! Isn't it normal for us to be afraid? Are we supposed to greet him with smiling faces?"
Gaara stood on the sand dune at the village entrance, the wind lifting his red hair, sand striking his face, yet he felt no pain.
He looked at those descriptions on the screen, his heart devoid of any ripples, for he had long been accustomed to it.
---
The villagers of Kumogakure and Iwagakure, who had not been specifically named, were full of schadenfreude.
The villagers of Kumogakure gathered together, looking at the screen and laughing: "Those people from Konoha and Sunagakure really have such low moral standards. We in Kumogakure are better."
"That's right! We in Kumogakure never bully our Jinchuriki too much. Even though Killer B is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, everyone respects him. And although his rapping is terrible, none of us curse him to his face."
Someone else chimed in: "That 'Will of Bullying' in Konoha sure is hilarious. In the future, we should make a 'Will of Lightning' too, specifically to mock Konoha."
Just as his voice fell, the voice of the Fourth Raikage came out from the office: "Stop talking nonsense! You having unity is fine, but mocking others is not!"
The man shrank his neck and didn't dare speak again.
---
The villagers of Iwagakure were also discussing it, gathering in twos and threes on street corners, spitting as they talked.
"We in Iwagakure do not bully Jinchuriki. Although Roshi is ostracized, no one dares curse him to his face."
"Exactly. The villagers of our Iwagakure are still kind at heart. Unlike Konoha, making some 'Will of Bullying'; so embarrassing."
