You Must Admit It

Seeing that Ōnoki had used Wood Release Ninjutsu, Qingcheng had already given up on fighting. Firstly, he was afraid of Qingcheng's enormous Chakra — Peak Kage Level- level Chakra, almost comparable to the low-level Jinchuriki. This wasn't the amount of Chakra a human should possess.

Secondly, Ōnoki also knew that Uchiha Qingcheng possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, and he was the most qualified to speak about the power of the Ōnoki Mangekyō Sharingan.

Thirteen-year-old Ōnoki, along with his teacher, the Second Hokage, went to Konoha to seek an alliance with Hashirama Senju and sign a peace treaty. However, their luck was terrible; when they arrived in Konoha, Hashirama Senju wasn't there, but Uchiha Madara was.

So the Second Tsuchikage took Ōnoki to find Uchiha Madara, hoping to sign a peace treaty. However, Madara instantly killed both of them with a single move. Madara then said to the Second Tsuchikage, "Konoha has never had any allied villages; you can only submit to Konoha."

At that moment, Ōnoki and the Second Tsuchikage were both trembling and lying on the ground, staring at the enormous Susanoo behind Madara, which looked like an ancient demon god.

Madara had no idea how much psychological damage his Susanoo Susanoo caused to a thirteen-year-old child.

Not only Ōnoki, but even the Four-Tails Son Goku, upon witnessing the terrifying Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence, instantly had his eyes clear. Just moments before, he had been roaring and howling like an ancient ferocious beast, but now he only wanted to summon Roshi and let him try out his Wood Release Ninjutsu.

As Roshi looked at his Tailed Beast Son Goku, who was calling out to him, wanting him to come out and fight, he then said to the Four-Tails, "Hold on a little longer! Son, after the war, I will give my body to you. In my whole life, you are my only friend."

Upon hearing Roshi's words, the Four-Tails, with a maniacal expression, said, "Fine! You said it yourself. After the war, I'm going back to Mount Huaguo. Humans are just too cruel, especially those guys who know Wood Release Ninjutsu. I shouldn't have come out to look for fruit in the first place."

Not only did the Four-Tails panic upon seeing Qingcheng, but even the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, along with Kitsuchi, Tu Tsuchikawa, and Kari—these Elite Jonin— were astonished by Uchiha Qingcheng's immense power, witnessing the massive Wood Release that covered the cliff, transforming it into a giant wooden bridge connecting the two sides.

The Stone Ninja, who had just been full of fighting spirit and wanted to defeat the Konoha Ninja, were all frightened after seeing Wood Release Deep Forest Emergence. Some of the Stone Ninja sat on the ground in shock and shouted, "Damn it, how are we supposed to fight this?"

Meanwhile, the Konoha Ninja were enraged by Qingcheng's words. Looking at Ōnoki opposite them, they shouted, "It was you bandits from Hidden Stone Village who secretly instigated Hiruzen Sarutobi to launch the Konoha Crush Plan, and even colluded with the Hachikaku Clan, the vanguard of the Sarutobi Clan! Hidden Stone Village must admit this and compensate Konoha!"

Why were these Konoha Ninja so angry? It's because they'd all been fined under the Konoha Crush Plan, and even Kumo-ma had been subjected to the Police Force's wrath. Therefore, they deeply hated Hiruzen Sarutobi his name was on the Konoha Beautification Plan.

Now everyone has heard that it was Ōnoki who secretly Hiruzen Sarutobi, and naturally, they are filled with murderous intent and resentment.

Shouhon Yihan was also there, pointing at Ōnoki and shouting wildly, "It was you, you little dwarf, Hiruzen Sarutobi! You even exchanged private messages with the Hakkaku Clan! You must admit responsibility and stop trying to renege on your promises, you damned Stone Ninja bandits!"

The other Police Force personnel were also shouting at the top of their lungs. Some even pulled out megaphones and loudspeakers, yelling at Ōnoki in mid-air, "You cunning little dwarf, kneel down and apologize right now!"

Why is Shouhon Yihan shouting so enthusiastically? It's a great plan to shift the blame. During the Konoha Crush Plan, she was at the forefront, and although she used Hiruzen Sarutobi's signature to shift the blame to him, some villagers still harbored resentment towards her. Now that another scapegoat has appeared, she naturally has to frantically try to shift the blame.

Tsunade looked at Qingcheng's righteous indignation and felt a bit disgusted. She thought to herself, "Here we go again, looking for a scapegoat. The Konoha Crush Plan —wasn't it you, this Evil Uchiha, who used the Third Hokage's signature to devise it yourself? And all the fines levied on the Police Force went into your pocket, didn't they?"

Tsunade then turned to look at the Konoha Ninja beside her. She noticed that they all wore expressions of righteous indignation, regarding the Third Tsuchikage Konoha Ninja, Ōnoki, as the culprit. Each of them was filled with murderous intent, wanting to vent all the suffering they had endured on the Stone Ninja.

Looking at the Konoha Ninja united in their hatred of the enemy, Tsunade said with a surprised expression, "That Evil Uchiha is so insidious! He actually used such a method to boost the morale of the Konoha Ninja. Judging from this, the Konoha Ninja will definitely attack Hidden Stone Village. The Stone Ninja on the other side are extremely unlucky to have encountered such Uchiha Clan."

Seeing that Ōnoki refused to admit it, Qingcheng activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and then his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, staring intently at Ōnoki. He then shouted sternly, "Do you, Ōnoki, dare to swear that you didn't write a letter to Hiruzen Sarutobi? If you're lying, your precious little granddaughter will be..."

As the Tsuchikage, Ōnoki definitely wrote letters to Hiruzen Sarutobi, but they were all about the peace treaty and certainly not about the Collapse Plan.

Ōnoki looked at Qingcheng's Mangekyō Sharingan, and also at the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, his face showing great surprise. He then noticed that Qingcheng possessed an aura similar to Madara's—unparalleled confidence and a burning desire for battle.

Ōnoki thought to himself, "These Uchiha Clan Hiruzen Sarutobi much better. Dealing with a cowardly Hokage like that, I'm not afraid they'll start a war. Unlike this naturally crazy Uchiha Clan, who made me swear on my granddaughter's life that I'll miss Hiruzen Sarutobi for the first time."

Then Ōnoki said with a serious expression, "I did Hiruzen Sarutobi, but those letters were all about the peace treaty."

Stop,

Before Ōnoki could continue speaking, he was interrupted by Qingcheng's sudden shout of fright.

Seeing that Ōnoki had fallen for the trap, Qingcheng shouted, "Stop! It was you who orchestrated this! Hiruzen Sarutobi was driven by greed by your letter, which led him to force the Police Force members to launch the Konoha Crush Plan in Konoha. You, Onoki of Both Scales, are the mastermind behind it all!"

Upon hearing the Hokage's words, Shouhon Yihan immediately shouted, "Konoha ninjas, the Hokage has solved the case! It was all done by Ōnoki! Our Police Force was being framed by Hiruzen Sarutobi, but now it's confirmed! Those damned Stone Ninja bandits, they've never given up on destroying Konoha!"
