"Hmph... Having a Jinchūriki from one of the Five Great Nations' hidden villages captured is a loss of standing. Other nations would mock them. It's an utter disgrace. Normally, they would try to recover them in secret. They wouldn't ask other nations for help the moment one was captured!"
Gaara was somewhat speechless at Ōnoki's words.
"Decorum, pride, outdated ways of thinking."
Ōnoki's expression darkened, but inwardly he snorted. Hmph! Impudent brat.
At that moment, Mei Terumi spoke up. "Let's set aside whether that way of thinking is outdated. As Mizukage, I admit I failed to address this in time. But even if a Tailed Beast is taken, it doesn't immediately cause panic. Controlling a Tailed Beast requires technique, knowledge, and time."

Fourth Raikage A's other guard, C, caught the fist of Ōnoki's guard, Kitsuchi, in one hand.
Kurotsuchi also held a kunai, watching Fourth Raikage A and his guards warily.
Meanwhile, Rose and
