Yagura agreed with Ronglin.
During the Second Shinobi World War, Kumogakure had stabbed Iwagakure viciously in the back, forcing Iwagakure to withdraw in the end. Not long ago, the Third Raikage had died surrounded by Iwagakure's army. The two sides were thick with the smell of gunpowder, looking ready to go to war at any moment. Ōnoki had even sent Iwagakure's army to the border, where tensions were drawn tight as a bowstring.
But once they learned that Konoha, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure had joined forces to attack the Land of Artisans and divided everything between themselves, they definitely would not be able to sit still. Never mind how wealthy the Land of Artisans was—each of those craftsmen was incredibly valuable.
