ficus bonsai

Do you think this might be a mosaic virus? The chlorophyll in the leaves is constantly depleting, causing them to fall off. Even new leaves discolor and drop immediately. I've noticed a similarity to the mosaic spots seen in F. carica.

Hi all 👋 I am new to the forum and to the art of bonsai. English is not my main language, so I may be wrong, sorry) Last month, I bought this wonderful ficus at the shopping centre. I approach this hobby responsibly, and I don't want to harm the tree. So I immediately bought Japanese tools...
