The news of the Iwa and Waterfall defeat in the skirmish had traveled back to the Third Tsuchikage.
Onoki slamed his fist on the table after receiving the news and yelled loudly in the office, "Damn those tree huggers, they're going to pay."
Suddenly, the Tsuchikage office door opened, and when he saw his son-in-law, Kitsuchi, was the one who entered his office, he calmed down.
"Father, I have important news You will not like what I am about to say to you. " Kitsuchi said urgently to Onoki.
Onoki's eyebrows twitched when he heard what Kitsuchi just said, and he said to Kitsuchi, "Don't test my patience, Kitsuchi. Tell me why you barged into my office."
Kitsuchi took a deep breath to calm down and said to Onoki, "Konoha ANBU attacked our supply base and destroyed it."
Onoki stood up, his face contorted in rage, and yelled loudly at Kitsuchi, "What did you say?"
Kitsuchi didn't dare look at Onoki in the eyes; he stood quietly in his place.
"Damn that monkey he is going to pay dearly for his actions; I will never forgive him." Onoki yelled in rage.
After a few moments, Onoki sat on his chair, and he started thinking deeply. He then looked at Kitsuchi and said, "Send a letter to Waterfall village and tell them that if they want us to continue to support them in this skirmish, they are required to provide us with the necessary supplies; if they refuse, we will retreat."
Kitsuchi was surprised when he heard this, and he asked Onoki, "Father, are we really going to retreat?"
Onoki smirked when he heard Kitsuchi question and said, "We will retreat, but before we retreat, we have to accomplish two things: first, we need to let Konoha suffer a great loss, and second, we will kidnapp Waterfall Jinchuriki."
Kitsuchi eyes widened when he heard this and asked, "Father, if we do this, the other villages might react against us."
Onoki scoffed when he heard this and said to Kitsuchi, "Do you have a brain in that skull of yours? Use your brain for once. First of all, Konoha will not dare to take any action. Their Jinchuriki is 10 years old, their fourth Hokage is dead, and their Uchiha clan is no more. I plan to send Roshi, Han, and you along with some Jounin and Chunin to annihilate Konoha Shinobi, who are on the border."
Kitsuchi was shocked after hearing this, and Onoki continued, "After we exterminate Konoha Shinobi in the border, the monkey will not dare to make a move because he is cautious by nature."
"The mist village is in civil war, and that brute Ay will not take action because he is currently engaging Jeraya in the border and is blinded by his pride." Onoki said while smiling smugly to Kitsuchi.
After Kitsuchi heard Onoki's explanation, he too smirked at Onoki and said to him, "Father, this is a brilliant plan."
Onoki nodded his head, then he started writing a letter and handed the letter to Kitsuchi.
Onoki then said to Kitsuchi, "I want you to send this letter to the waterfall village and summon Han and Roshi to my office."
Kitsuchi nodded his head obediently to Onoki; he grabbed the letter and left the office
