Therefore, he decided to adopt a relatively moderate approach, opting only for small-scale, low-intensity combat conflicts. As long as Konohagakure did not brazenly invade the territory of the Land of Earth, Iwagakure would not easily launch large-scale campaigns at this stage.
Such a strategy completely matched Onoki's consistent character trait of caution and stability. No matter how the situation developed, he could always ensure that he remained in an invincible position, never letting Iwagakure suffer heavy losses, though it would also be difficult for them to make massive gains.
Not only that, since the Land of Earth bordered the Land of Wind, Onoki even harbored another scheme in his heart. If Sunagakure collapsed too rapidly on the battlefield, he intended to take the opportunity to wander over to the Land of Wind and casually "pick up" some local specialty resources.
