Hana loathed public speaking.
She was never the leader type. Although she had the social amplitude to be a passable spokesperson it was nothing she fancied. Within the Mizukage Complex in an assembly hall within the building she stood on a podium with a small audience of officials, news broadcaster, guards, and members of the Administration. Hana prepared her public announcement for a few days prior to giving it, reviewing important files and claims she had evidence for. Being the world renown sacker of Iron, Hana being the one to deliver the message of the ex-Hokage's assassination did not add onto her already infamous name, likely raising suspicion to her enemies. But that was life. There will always be people to dislike Hana and her choices, and although she did not agree with them, she had to stand by them, for they were the will of the Water Empire.
"Good Evening. I summoned this press conference to bring the great nations the status of the former Hokage, Tatsu Kotoshura, or otherwise known as... 'Neko-sama.'" Hana said, her face naturally, but reluctantly holding back a cringe. "Following the final moments of her service to the Land of Fire, Tatsu Kotoshura was targeted and successfully assassinated by Konoha military personnel who served under the new reign of Lord Haku. This assassination was not carried out of spite, but instead justice. Numerous reports from Lord Haku stated the mental instability of the former Hokage, from blatant disregards of the village and nation's secrets, critical neglect of the village's security, and acts of aggression towards its allying nations. Kirigakure has witnessed these acts of aggression directly as an East Indiaman trade ship was seized the other day by Konoha personnel to reveal it had been loaded with enough explosives equivalent to a seven-point-six kiloton explosion. The ship's manifest was set to dock in Ota. This ship directly threatened the life of not only the citizens in Ota, but the Genin from all the great nations participating in the Chuunin Exams. Genin from Kumogakure, Kirigakure, and Konoha's own were threatened by this act of carelessness and madness. Tatsu betrayed the other great nations and dishonored Konoha, but with her death, may Konoha find healing. Thank you."
With that, Hana left the podium and would head towards the exiting door out of the assembly hall. She gave enough information to satisfy the people's curiosity and have closure of Tatsu's reign. Hana specifically did not reveal any information regarding Akihiro or Kimiko's involvement with the issue. Hana believed in confidentiality. Some details were too classified to let it be known in public and were better off kept as secrets. She expected a response from Kumogakure, though whether it would be understanding or malice would soon to be discovered. But for now she was pleased to know with a new leadership, perhaps Konoha and Kirigakure could mend their broken past and start anew.
