Not everything could go as planned. Hyuga Kei had originally believed that the capture would go completely unnoticed, but Iwagakure still discovered it.

Before the Akatsuki Organization found Roshi, Iwagakure's Anbu found him first. Yet during the time it took them to return and report the news,

by the time Ōnoki led his people back to Mount Buwei, Roshi had vanished once again. This left him no choice but to suspect that Roshi had already been killed.

The only party most likely capable of doing this was Konoha. Though he did not know what methods they had used, Konoha must have secretly murdered their Jinchuriki.

Just like Sunagakure during the Third Shinobi World War. Though they did not know what method Konoha had used to kill the Third Kazekage, it had to have been Konoha's doing.

Inside the Sound Village conference room, Jiraiya, Shikaku Nara, and the others from Konoha sat across from the Sound Village's higher-ups. Naruto and the other accompanying ninja had already been sent away to rest.

Shikaku wore a grim expression as he said, "According to reliable intelligence, Iwagakure has launched a surprise war and occupied the Land of Grass, which served as a buffer zone. They could launch a war against the Land of Fire at any time."

He went on to say that this was not merely a provocation against the Land of Fire, but also a test. If mishandled, it could become the beginning of the Fifth Shinobi World War.

Hyuga Kei had no idea why Ōnoki had started a war, and inwardly mocked him for possibly going mad.

In the original story, even when Konoha had been at its weakest, Ōnoki had never launched a war. Now that Tsunade and Jiraiya had returned, why was he jumping around again?
